My Empress is My Bad Girl

Zhao Yuanjing watched her leave with a gloomy expression.

Yundai walked to him and said softly: "I didn't expect the Empress Dowager to protect King Yi."

Zhao Yuanjing let out a sigh of relief and smiled: "Dai'er, do you remember what I said to you."

"Which sentence?"

"The royal family has no affection, as long as it participates in the dispute of rights. It doesn't matter what his father and son, brothers or grandchildren." Zhao Yuanjing said quietly, "The empress dowager is angry with me."

"The Empress Dowager has stood at the peak of Da Zhou's power for half of her life. She raised you with one hand. She thought you would be the same as the first emperor and let her control. Who knows... The emperor is not a gentle cat, but a cat. Wolf cub."

Zhao Yuanjing smiled slightly. He didn't feel angry when she called herself a wolf cub, but felt that there was an inexplicable intimacy.

He took Yun Dai's hand, sat down holding her, and said, "Dai'er, you have also seen how Yuhe under her control for decades has become like the entire Great Zhou Dynasty. The river burst without repairs, the Treasury Empty, cool officials are rampant. The Empress Dowager is satisfied, and the clan is satisfied. But have the thousands of people in Dazhou ever satisfied?"

Yun Dai nodded: "Yes, if I hadn't heard it with my own ears, it would be hard for me to believe that the Ministry of Internal Affairs still owes the local money."

"In the past few years, the money and wealth have been in the hands of the Jinjun king and other clan families. They have always been close to the Tai Empress Dowager. Today, the Tai Empress Dowager rushed over to prevent me from punishing King Yi, but she did not really want to protect King Yi."

"Then what is she for?"

"Because I am sending Jin Lan to check the accounts of the House of Internal Affairs." Zhao Yuanjing said, "The arrival of the Empress Dowager shows their guilty conscience and they are afraid."

"Could it be that they really are greedy for the money of the House of Internal Affairs?"

"If they are not greedy, I really don't know where the millions of taels of silver each year from the House of Internal Affairs have gone."

"The emperor, why does the empress dowager have to do this? She should be sincere to you in her heart."

"I know. But... once people get used to rights, it's hard to let go."

"I understand."

Yun Dai knew that he was in a bad mood today.

He had just taken care of the political affairs, but the clans like King Jin were in trouble. Even the emperor's grandmother, who raised him, has been forcing him because of recent events.

At this moment, Zhao Yuanhe did not know how to live or die, and repeatedly angered him, and he was really murderous.

Seeing her frowning, Zhao Yuanjing patted the back of her hand, "It's okay, don't worry."

Yun Dai asked him: "Just now, if the Queen Mother did not come, would you really kill King Yi?"

"meeting."

Zhao Yuanjing's gaze fell on the little golden bell in her ears.

Yun Dai tilted her head slightly, subconsciously avoiding his gaze.

Zhao Yuanjing raised his hand, held her cheek, turned her face, and showed her ears.

He approached her face and looked closely.

The small bell is pure gold in its entire body, small, but very delicate, and its finely polished parts are extremely round and smooth.

"I didn't take a closer look before, but now I look at it. It's a rare good craft." Zhao Yuanjing raised his hand and touched it lightly.

The little bell quivered.

Yun Dai closed her eyes and felt his breath spray on her ears.

He suddenly asked: "The fourth oldest said that Xiao Huangshu's emotions will affect this pair of bells, is it true or not?"

"This kind of thing... he shouldn't be lying."

"That said, it's true."

Zhao Yuanjing raised his eyebrows lightly, "On the day of the little emperor's wedding, you fainted in pain. Does it mean that he was in a bad mood at the time? On the day of the wedding, it shouldn't be."
