After His Majesty's rebirth, he personally taught the queen to abuse the scumbag

The Empress Dowager was a little surprised when she heard that Cheng Mingran was coming. When she heard that Ji Lingzhou had just left Concubine Shu, it seemed that everything was expected, but the Empress Dowager did not expect Cheng Mingran to come suddenly.

"Please invite them in quickly. It's so cold outside." The Queen Mother said to the people around her.

The servants nearby hurriedly went to invite Cheng Mingran in. The moment the empress dowager saw Cheng Mingran, she quickly stepped forward, held her hand, and then pulled her to sit next to her.

"You're not feeling well, why did you come here all of a sudden? It's cold outside. What if you catch a cold?" Although the Queen Mother's tone sounded a little complaining, she was also concerned.

Cheng Mingran's expression softened: "It's a bit boring to be alone, so I wanted to come and talk to my aunt."

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "You all step back." She looked at the people serving beside her and said another sentence.

After everyone in the room had left, the empress dowager looked at Cheng Mingran again: "What's wrong? You rushed here so early in the morning, is there something important?" The empress dowager also understood the girl she raised.

"It turns out that nothing can be hidden from my aunt." Cheng Mingran could only show a rare smile in front of the empress dowager.

"Don't you see who you grew up with when you were a child? What's wrong? Is there anything that can't be solved?" The Queen Mother actually had some guesses, but she was not very sure for the time being.

"Your Majesty was here with me yesterday." Cheng Mingran said.

The Queen Mother said nothing, but motioned for her to continue.

"I suddenly felt unwell at night, but... Aunt knows that there is nothing wrong with my body and it was just an exaggeration. But I don't know why, my body is a little feverish, and Your Majesty is beside me." Cheng Mingran said while looking into the empress dowager's eyes.

The Queen Mother smiled but said nothing. Cheng Mingran hesitated for a long time, and finally asked her question tentatively: "Did you do something, aunt?"

If it weren't for what happened yesterday, then I would have been unable to hide the fact that I was pretending to be sick. But Ji Lingzhou still believed that he was really sick because of the accident last night.

"Since you have some guesses, you should be able to figure it out." The Queen Mother did not deny it.

But although Cheng Mingran got a definite answer, she was more confused: "Why did my aunt do this?"

"The effect achieved last night was exactly what I wanted. It's impossible that Ranran doesn't understand it, right?" The Queen Mother did not explain it clearly.

Cheng Mingran said uncertainly: "Aunt, have you never thought that one day I would leave the palace?"

The Queen Mother's expression flickered slightly, but she did not deliberately avoid the question: "Given your status, it is not so easy to leave the palace."

"But my aunt didn't agree with me entering the palace at the beginning, so why is she doing that now..." Cheng Mingran really couldn't understand.

"Times have changed. If you have never been involved, you should have stayed away from disputes. But once you get involved in some things, it won't be easy to get out of them again." The Queen Mother gently stroked Cheng Mingran's hair.

"Can Ranran see clearly?" The Queen Mother suddenly asked a question.

What did he see clearly? Cheng Mingran looked confused: "See clearly the fate of not being able to leave the palace?"

The Queen Mother shook her head: "It's His Majesty's attitude towards you now."

Ah? Cheng Mingran was even more confused when she heard this. So what exactly did her aunt want to say? And why did she have the illusion that she seemed to know everything about her and His Majesty? She even knew more about the problems between them than the two of them.

"Ranran, don't you notice that His Majesty's attitude towards you is different now?" asked the Queen Mother.

Of course I noticed it, and it was obvious, but...

"Does His Majesty have other purposes? What does he want to do?" Cheng Mingran asked directly.

The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment when she heard this question, then she found it funny. Looking at Cheng Mingran who looked innocent, she was helpless: "Your Majesty... maybe he has some real thoughts about you."

Ah? Cheng Mingran froze in her place for a moment. What did it mean to have a real thought? This was something she shouldn't have thought about before...

And how could His Majesty be sincere to someone? However... She lowered her head, thinking of some changes in Ji Lingzhou in the past few days, she seemed to begin to waver.

"Ranran can feel it herself, right?" asked the Queen Mother.

"Hmm..." She did not deny the abnormality she felt.

"But...Aunt, even so, what can it prove? And I don't need these now." Cheng Mingran replied.

"Do you really not care?" the Queen Mother asked back.

Cheng Mingran shook her head: "I don't need it anyway?" She said this in a huff and didn't even look directly at the empress dowager, as if she was throwing a tantrum.

The Queen Mother just smiled when she saw this: "If you really think so, it's a good thing, but if you still care, then... Ranran, is there anything you can't admit?"

Cheng Mingran didn't respond.

"But... whether you care or not, this is a good thing for you, and it can also become the sharpest weapon in your hand." The Queen Mother said again.

Weapons? Cheng Mingran's expression flickered.

"I know you very well, and I also know His Majesty very well. After all, he is the child I raised. There are some things that you may not understand, but if you step back and look at them, you will see them clearly. You came here suddenly today, but what did he say to you?" Cheng Mingran was quite surprised when the Queen Mother said this.

"How did you know, Aunt?" Cheng Mingran asked subconsciously.

"It's just a guess. Judging from your behavior, what did he say to you? Maybe you can't make your own decision? Or do you have some doubts?" The Queen Mother's voice was soft, but it always made people feel at ease.

When Cheng Mingran heard this, the conversation between them got down to business. Thinking of what Ji Lingzhou had said today, she spoke to the Queen Mother without hiding anything.

"Your Majesty said a lot of inexplicable things to me today, but those are not important. What's important is that Your Majesty mentioned the Cheng family to me today. He said... Your Majesty said that he knows that the Cheng family is innocent, and that the Cheng family will be fine. When things are over later, the Cheng family will be released safely." Cheng Mingran selected some very important words.

It is undeniable that the Queen Mother was obviously surprised when she heard these words. She had guessed something, but she did not expect Ji Lingzhou to say such words directly...
