After the eldest daughter was reborn, the whole family knelt down and begged for forgiveness

When the empress dowager was young, she was indifferent and lived a life of peace. She was imprisoned in the cold palace by the late Empress Xiaoxian. Even her two sons were taken away by Empress Xiaoxian and she was almost killed.

Empress Xiaoxian was jealous and cruel, and countless concubines and princes died in her hands. At that time, it was the old princess who stepped forward to protect these two princes, so that they could survive.

These two princes are Emperor Huaimin and Emperor Yonghui!

Later, the harem and the political situation changed several times. The empress dowager had been living in the Cining Palace, leading a peaceful life until an exception was made for her and Lin Shaoshu.

The empress dowager, who had always been a vegetarian and chanting Buddhist scriptures in the harem, took her and Lin Shaoshu under her wings when they were most isolated and helpless.

When Xiao Xuetang was trapped in the Marquis' Mansion and was in trouble with the old lady, she also lent a helping hand...

It was this elder whom Xiao Xuetang respected so much, but in her previous life, he had given her a cup of poisoned wine on the eve of her entering the palace.

"Tang'er, Shaoshu is the emperor now, he cannot tolerate a queen who has lost her chastity..."

"You've been with him for all these years and witnessed how difficult it has been for him. Just do this as the last thing you can do for him."

The poisoned wine was poured down her throat, and it felt like a knife was stirring her internal organs.

She survived, not because the Empress Dowager showed mercy, but because she took the Xuepo Pill sent by her uncle in time.

The Xuepo Pill can cure all poisons, but it cannot completely eliminate the pain caused by the poison wine.

For three whole days, the sky above Weiyang Palace was filled with her screams...

Lin Shaoshu sent people to seal off the Weiyang Palace. Three days later, she attended the Queen's coronation ceremony as usual, which was presided over by the Grand Empress Dowager herself.

Everything seemed as if nothing had happened...

After that night, the Grand Empress Dowager seemed to have forgotten about the poisoned wine. On the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, they met at the palace banquet. The kind old lady looked very friendly, sometimes calling her "Queen" and even affectionately calling her by her nickname "Tang'er".

It was as if the incident of the poisoned wine that day and the three days of torture were just her illusions.

No one remembered or mentioned the incident anymore. Even Lin Shaoshu tacitly forgot about it and did not pursue it any further.

At that time she thought that this was not a harem, but a devil's den of distorted human nature!

Anyone who enters here will be devoured by the devil called "power" and "desire", leaving only a shell covered in human skin...

She wanted to escape, escape from here.

But, where can she escape to?

In her previous life, she couldn't escape, didn't want to escape, didn't have the ability to escape, and didn't dare to escape.

But this life is different, there is still time for everything!

She would not marry Lin Shaoshu, would not get involved in this royal family dispute, and would not be used as a pawn by these people...

When she raised her eyes again, the turbulent emotions in her eyes had been completely concealed, and she said obediently and softly: "I know that the Queen Mother loves you the most..."

Does the Queen Mother love her?

Of course, dear...

When Concubine Xie was alive, the empress dowager liked this daughter-in-law very much and loved her as much as she loved the whole family.

Later, Concubine Xie died of illness, and the Xie family suffered a sudden change. She and Lin Shaoshu were abandoned alone in Kyoto. It was the Empress Dowager who took her under her wing.

Before Xie and others returned to Kyoto, Xiao Xuetang could only escape the old lady's supervision and get a moment's respite in the Cining Palace on the first and fifteenth day of every month.

Over the past five years, the Empress Dowager had taken meticulous care of her, except for that one time, and that one time only, when she personally had someone give her a cup of poisoned wine.

It seemed that all of that was just a nightmare for Xiao Xuetang...

But Xiao Xuetang knew that those were not dreams!

In the heart of the Grand Empress Dowager, all the kindness she showed to her was just love for her and her family, and in the heart of the Empress Dowager, she, Xiao Xuetang, was just a tool to help Lin Shaoshu ascend the throne.

So in this new life, Xiao Xuetang has avoided meeting the Grand Empress Dowager, but she still can't avoid what's coming...

"Tang'er?"

The Queen Mother's usual kind voice rang in her ears, and she held Xiao Xuetang's hand a little tighter.

Xiao Xuetang came back to her senses and looked at the Queen Mother. She raised a gentle smile and said, "So I believe that today, Queen Mother, you will definitely give me justice."

The girl's pair of distinct black and white eyes were filled with admiration. Just like before, she trusted and relied on this elder.

Under such a clear gaze, the Queen Mother couldn't help but evade a little, but still smiled and said: "Of course, I will definitely teach Shao Shu a lesson and make him apologize to you!"

In the eyes of the Queen Mother, today was not a big deal, at most the man was a little romantic.

The most hateful one is the Queen. Just like the vicious Queen Xiaoxian, she killed the royal heirs and even spared her grandson!

Of course Xiao Xuetang saw what the Queen Mother was thinking, and a hint of sneer flashed in her eyes.

Yes, in the empress dowager's heart, how could she, Xiao Xuetang, be more important than Lin Shaoshu? The empress dowager protected her in the past only because she and the Xie family behind her could assist Lin Shaoshu.

It was a pity that she almost died once in her previous life before she understood such a simple truth.

and so……

She wanted to break off the engagement with Lin Shaoshu openly and honestly, and she never counted on the Queen Mother. The key to breaking off the engagement today was...

On Queen Wang, who has always been at odds with her!

At this time, the Queen saw the Queen Mother coming and was unhappy, but she still had to pretend to be dignified and virtuous. She personally helped the Queen Mother to sit down and said, "Mother, there is nothing important today. Why did I disturb you?"

Even though the Queen Mother had no power in the harem, she was still the elder after all. With the pressure of filial piety, the Queen had to pretend to be filial on the surface...

Thinking of this, a hint of impetuousness flashed in Queen Wang's eyes.

The Queen Mother glanced at Queen Wang with aloof and cold eyes, and a hint of displeasure flashed in her eyes...

She has always disliked people like Queen Wang who would do anything to achieve her goals, and she likes Lin Shaoshu's non-competitive character. But now she is old and too lazy to take care of the things in the harem, so Queen Wang can only take care of everything.

But today, Queen Wang actually framed her own grandson, and the Queen Mother could no longer sit idly by...

The Queen Mother dodged Queen Wang's hand and sat down before saying, "If I hadn't come, you would have been tortured into confessing today."

Emperor Yonghui was always filial. Hearing the Queen Mother's unhappy tone, he said repeatedly: "Mother, what happened today was indeed because of Shaoshu's confusion. It hurt the reputation of the royal family..."

Originally, Emperor Yonghui thought that after beating Lin Shaoshu with a few dozen boards, the matter would be covered up by the censors, but it happened to be too late now...

The Queen Mother frowned and said, "You are in a hurry to convict Shao Shu before the facts are clarified. How can you be a father like this?"

What happened today was that Lin Shaoshu and Ye Jin were hanging out together and were seen by someone. How could they tell that it was the royal family that was disgraced!

But the Empress Dowager was the elder, and seeing that she seemed to be defending Lin Shaoshu, Emperor Yonghui could do nothing.

Xiao Xuetang looked at the farce in front of her, her lips curled slightly, the Queen Mother's appearance was just expected...

Now it’s up to the Queen!

"My lady, the Queen Mother is coming for us."

Su Xin said to Queen Wang anxiously, "Your Majesty, if the Queen Mother comes and insists on protecting the Third Prince, what should we do if she falsely accuses us of framing the Third Prince?"
