Empress Dowager + Spoiler

On the other side, Li Zhongxian and Chan'er returned to the palace, and they went to return to their masters respectively.As the year approaches, not only are there many trivial matters in the harem, but Zhao Sansi is too busy. Naturally, she has no time to take care of these matters, and she has always been at ease with her own queen's affairs. Before Li Zhongxian could finish speaking, she sent him away and let him go Talk to the Queen.

After Chan'er returned to Changning Palace, Gu Xizhao asked the others to retreat, leaving her alone to return, "When you come back, can father ask you to bring a message to this palace?"

Chan'er nodded, and relayed the words of Marquis Changping to Gu Xizhao, "The old general said, 'everything at home has been prepared and is very safe, so she doesn't have to worry about it, she should think about it now. If you think about yourself, you should focus on the matter of the emperor's heir.'”

Everything is ready and secure - it's just the wind.

I'm afraid my father will never know, and I'm afraid this shareholders' wind will never come.

Because, she will never have a little fool's heir.

Thinking of this, Gu Xizhao couldn't help laughing.So what if her father did all the tricks, how could he think that the little fool was actually a little girl?

Chan'er couldn't help being puzzled, "Ma'am, what are you laughing at?"

Gu Xizhao shook her head, "I'm not laughing at anything."

Chan'er also laughed, "Ever since her master, Daoist Yun Song, entered the palace, the empress doesn't like to smile anymore. The slaves still like to see the empress happy."

Gu Xizhao was taken aback, "Really? Is it so obvious?"

Chan'er nodded, "Your Majesty often loses her mind, and my servant has seen the emperor looking at you from a distance several times, and I don't let my servant and others remind you. Come to think of it, the Emperor must be worried about you."

Gu Xizhao was thoughtful, and responded lightly, "Okay, I know about it. It's hard work for you to go out of the palace today, let's go down and have a rest first."

"It's not hard. I haven't been out of the palace for a long time, I just went out to have a look." Chan'er said a few words before bowing and retreating.

After Chan'er went out, only the occasional crackling sound of the silver charcoal in the brazier remained in the quiet hall. Gu Xizhao sat for a long time in the same posture as Chan'er went out, until her neck felt a little sore, and then she raised her hand and squeezed it. , got up and walked to the window.

This year's summer is long, but winter comes early. It snows in mid-October. By December, the snow outside has not completely melted.

The thick snow crushed the dead branches, and the dead branches were not heavy. The moment Gu Xizhao opened the window, a branch of a pine tree not far away was crushed, and large chunks of snow fell suddenly, scaring the people below. The little maid who passed by was scurrying around with her head in her arms, and the people next to her were shaking with laughter.

Gu Xizhao watched and couldn't help laughing.When she was young, she was also a mischievous girl, she took two little girls from the Taoist temple to climb trees to catch birds, and in winter she playfully shook the snow on the trees, leaving the two little girls all over her body.

At that time, she also laughed like this.

When you are young and don't know sorrow, your heart is very simple, so happiness is also very simple.

Unlike today, people's hearts are complicated, and even happiness has become a luxury.Even blood relationship has become a weapon to be used.

Her father used her, and now she will use her father too.

The rest of the dowry was just her sincerity to show "she figured it out".

After all, only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win a hundred battles.

Since it is difficult to have both loyalty and filial piety, then choose one and follow it.

On the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, the temperature dropped a lot again, and the velvet snow turned into thick ice crystals. Before Zhao Sansi left Changning Palace, he ran back in a desperate manner, "Queen, it's too cold outside, I'm going to rest in the morning." Come on, let's rest."

The winter came earlier this year, and it was colder than in previous years. Zhao Sansi couldn't get up at all, and had to ask Gu Xizhao three times and four times every day. Every time she saw the sleepy and ignorant look of the little fool, she felt that the emperor's job was indeed too tiring. After a while, I had to think of a way to postpone the morning ceremony for half an hour.

"The concubine sees that the emperor is getting more and more delicate." Gu Xizhao came out of the bedroom and felt the low temperature today, her mouth was merciless, but her hands were very skillful to put on a warm cotton sleeve for her. "Those ministers have to come to the palace early, and now the emperor won't go to court if he can't go to court. Can the ministers wait in vain?"

"It's cold." Zhao Sansi stepped on the clean snow on the side of the gravel road, only heard the "creaking" sound, but the foot was not deep, "Queen, look, the snow has turned into ice particles. I can't even step on it."

Gu Xizhao glared at her, and Zhao Sansi quickly pulled her legs back, "It's so cold."

Gu Xizhao said helplessly: "The ministers and concubines know it's cold, but the emperor has taken a break from court today because of the cold, so where will he put all the officials? These days the weather may not get warmer, so you go to court today, the weather is too cold , This year, the court will be suspended from the 24th of the twelfth lunar month.”

Zhao Sansi reluctantly went to court again.

According to the usual practice, as soon as she went to the court, she "disliked" her own queen to the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, "My loves, it's so cold today, what made you insist on coming to the court?"

Ministers: What is it?Of course it was due to the majesty of the emperor.

Of course, I was so embarrassed in my heart that I still had to be reasonable: "It's a responsibility, it's a dream to make Dazhao better and better."

The mouth of a courtier, a deceitful ghost.

Zhao Sansi didn't believe it anyway, pouted, "I thought it was salary."

Ministers: Hehehe.The salary has been cut in half, what do we want?

Of course, they're so stingy in their hearts, and they still have to be reasonable, but even so, they are still well-reasoned gentlemen who love money: "Salary... is naturally one of them. Ministers and others all have seniors and juniors. people."

Zhao Sansi, who was neither old nor young, felt that he was having a good time, "The weather is so cold, although I have the whole Dazhao in my heart, but without the queen's force, I am afraid I will not be able to come to court today. Hey, this woman just can't be pampered, look at the present, I want to be lazy, but the queen won't let me, she has to force me to come to the court."

The courtiers had already taken the old monk's attitude towards this, anyway, they had already summed it up, no matter what the little emperor said about the empress, they only needed to echo: "The empress is virtuous."

Zhao Sansi, who was not afraid of being slapped at all, nodded, and then said with emotion, "The queen is virtuous, she is virtuous, she is too virtuous."

All the ministers have a word in their hearts, and they don't know whether to say it or not.

After the daily show was over, Zhao Sansi cleared his throat and began to watch the courtiers complain.

Well, five out of ten of these courtiers’ things that they bring to the court are not good things, and the other four are used to make up for the number. It will take more than half a year for Sun Li to ask for leave before something really good happens.

Zhao Sansi sometimes wondered, didn't she say that it was a peaceful and prosperous world, why she always felt that the common people were living in dire straits every time she went to court.

Sure enough, after saying two insignificant things, the Minister of the Ministry of Industry said a tragic event:

"My Majesty, according to the report from the person in charge of relocating the tomb of Empress Dowager Duanhui, Emperor Xuanjing's tomb has been stolen."

When Zhao Sansi ascended the throne last year, she still used the original reign name. This year, the reign name was changed to Xi. Choose a place to build.

Xuanjing is the posthumous title of the first emperor Zhao Jin.

When Minister of the Ministry of Industry said this, Zhao Sansi was secretly yawning.

Hearing this, he didn't care about yawning, "You... what did you just say? What was stolen?"

"Emperor Xuanjing's tomb has been stolen."

Her imperial brother's tomb was stolen?

That is right.

Zhao Sansi opened his mouth slightly for a long time, "What was stolen?"

"I don't know exactly what was stolen, but the funerary gold and silver utensils and jewelry in the underground palace have been moved."

Zhao Sansi breathed a sigh of relief, as long as her imperial brother's dragon body was not stolen.

Otherwise... well, her brother, the emperor, is too miserable.

Chapter 141

Leaving aside whether Zhao Jin, the emperor, was miserable or not, the theft of Emperor Shan's Mausoleum was a major event that shocked the court.

As soon as the minister of the Ministry of Industry finished his words, all the civil and military officials in the court gasped.

The imperial mausoleums of all dynasties had special mausoleum guards, and the court also set up mausoleum officials who specialized in the affairs of the imperial mausoleums.In addition, the emperor's mausoleum is built along the mountain range. Even if the emperor's mausoleum is found, it is rare for someone to touch the emperor's mausoleum to steal things.

"Absurd!" After being surprised, Zhao Sansi also realized the seriousness of the matter, "Where is the Minister of Imperial Mausoleum Affairs? The tomb guards are all elite soldiers, and they can't even protect the tomb of the first emperor. What are they doing?"

"Returning to the emperor, when General Wei received the news, he had already rushed to the imperial mausoleum overnight to thoroughly investigate the matter."

Although the Minister of Imperial Mausoleum Affairs is the chief officer in charge of the imperial mausoleum, there is no additional staffing, and General Fengtian has always been in charge.
