Temptation is coming to the bowl

Chapter 84 The Empress Dowager: Another Side of the Empress Dowager

Emperor Jingwen's chest heaved and heaved, his face was gloomy, and he was furious at first glance.

Zhou Shun, the chief eunuch, saw Emperor Jingwen's sullen expression, so he naturally knew why. He thought to himself that Mingyue was really bewitched by a ghost, and dared to say such outrageous words in front of the queen mother and the queen. The queen mother believed that she was a pawn placed by the emperor. Or is she so beautiful that the emperor has taken a fancy to her?However, the most urgent task is to calm down the emperor.

Zhou Shun considered it carefully, and said cautiously: "The emperor calms down, the slave thinks that Mingyue may have discovered something, which made the queen mother get rid of Mingyue so anxiously. This Mingyue shouted to see the emperor in Yongshou Palace, maybe it was because she wanted to kill her." Disclose this news to the emperor!"

Hearing this, Emperor Jingwen paused for a moment, his expression blurred, "Do you have any news from the other spies from Yongshou Palace? Did Mingyue tell them the news?"

Zhou Shun shook his head, "The servant hasn't received it yet, I think Mingyue hasn't had time yet."

Emperor Jingwen sat down and waved Zhou Shun down. After a long time of contemplation, he recalled the shadow guards who were monitoring in Yongshou Palace, but the news he got was that there was nothing wrong with it.Although Mingyue made tea for the queen mother every day, she couldn't get close to the queen mother at all.Every time she made the tea, sent it to the inner hall, and then sent it to Jingxin's hands by the maid waiting in the inner hall. After going down layer by layer, Mingyue couldn't even touch the shadow of the queen mother, let alone the shadow of the queen mother. Tell me what secret you have come into contact with.

And the queen mother drank tea every day, teased the dog, or went for a walk in the back garden, without any abnormal behavior at all.The same is true for Mingyue, the maid next to her, who never saw her contact with outsiders at all.Both of them are very law-abiding.

After the Shadow Guard retreated, Emperor Jing Wen was silent for a long time, could it be that the Empress Dowager has not yet joined forces with King Ning?Thinking of this, he carefully recalled the things about the empress dowager in his previous life. After the funeral of the first emperor, the empress dowager stayed in Yongshou Palace and kept her own life.He found that when he first went to pay his respects, the queen mother even replied with a trembling voice, as if she was terribly afraid of him.Every time it was Li Fuhai who mediated, so as not to make the atmosphere awkward.Later, perhaps because she was used to his daily visits, the Queen Mother was not as afraid of him as she was at the beginning.He and the queen mother have always been calm and peaceful, so he is not too defensive against the queen mother.

So here comes the question, when did the Empress Dowager start having a relationship with King Ning?It stands to reason that the Queen Mother in this harem is considered to be under one person and above ten thousand people, enjoying all the glory and wealth, and he also respects her as his aunt, without any harshness, so what dissatisfaction does she have?Or what did King Ning promise her so that she would be willing to seek rebellion?

Maybe, he overlooked something?

"Yingyi, go and check the queen mother's information thoroughly for me, and send it over as soon as possible."

Different from Emperor Jingwen's various conspiracy theories, after returning to Fengning Palace, the queen felt uneasy. If Mingyue was really the emperor's person, and she killed Mingyue again, would it ruin the emperor's business?

Nanny Lin watched the queen grow up since she was a child, so how can she not know what the queen is worried about, she spat in her heart for that dead and restless little hoof, and comforted her: "Madam, I heard that Mingyue is a court lady who serves tea. , She is the one who serves tea to the emperor in Yongshou Palace on weekdays. After a long period of time, if the little hoof is not kept properly, some bad thoughts will arise, and if she wants to climb the dragon bed, the empress doesn't have to worry about this little hoof."

The queen sighed: "If this is the case, I don't have to worry so much. Although the queen mother has no support from her natal family, she holds military power. If the emperor is not afraid, it is impossible. Put a few nails in Yongshou Palace That's natural too."

Hearing this, Nanny Lin slapped her thigh anxiously, "What should I do? If the emperor blames me, what will you do, empress?"

Knowing that Nanny Lin was worried for her, the queen persuaded her instead, "You don't have to worry so much, Nanny Lin. This Palace follows the palace rules, so the Emperor will naturally not find any fault." I'm afraid the emperor will annoy her!

After all, Nanny Lin is an old man. After calming down, she thought about what happened today, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong. This matter? You know, if Mingyue and Li Fuhai really had an affair, these two people would not have the audacity to do this kind of thing in the rockery in the Imperial Garden. If Mingyue was really voluntary, why on earth? Tea leaves scattered all over the place? This is obviously wrong! Madam, think about the way Mingyue cried out for injustice in the hall, it doesn't look like a fake!"

The empress was startled, and hurriedly said: "You mean, this was deliberately designed by the empress dowager? The empress dowager let me witness all this, and then borrowed my hand to remove the bright moon? But isn't Li Fuhai a big celebrity around the empress dowager? It is said that the empress dowager You can't live without him by your side. How can the Queen Mother be willing to spend so much money?"

"Your Majesty, have you forgotten what happened in Yongshou Palace a few days ago? Li Fuhai was scolded by the Empress Dowager and kicked out of the inner palace. Now she is very popular around the Empress Dowager! This Li Fuhai is probably useless. It’s just a pawn! The Queen Mother is making the best use of everything!”

The queen looked at the candlelight faintly, "I'm afraid this palace will be in trouble again!"

In this room, Xiaomeng kills two birds with one stone and solves two major problems at once. This feeling is very refreshing!He and Xiao Guai were having fun in the back garden, and everyone else retreated, leaving only Jing Xin waiting not far or near.

Under Xiaomeng's instruction, this back garden specially circled a large area, except for the big stones, covered with green grass, set up a swing, surrounded by precious flowers, and planted evergreen beauty pine in the periphery , It seems to be a small world isolated from the world.

Next to the swing, there is an orange cloth, which is filled with various pastries and fruits, and various dog toys, all of which Xiaomeng asked the craftsman to make with wood according to the drawings he drew.I have to say that there are many skilled craftsmen in the palace, this toy is really lifelike, and Xiaomeng is very satisfied.

The air is fresh and comfortable, and the breeze blows, bringing a burst of floral fragrance mixed with a little earthy breath.Those flowers are like ten thousand pieces of Danxia, ​​a thousand layers of red brocade, so brilliant.The white dandelions are blooming, like brilliant stars scattered on the green velvet carpet, bit by bit, it is really lovable.

Xiaomeng had already taken off her hairpin, took off her bracelet, put on her simple and comfortable normal clothes, and ran all over the ground, her melodious and crisp laughter resounding in the sky, and it didn't stop for a long time.Xiaoguai followed behind him, yelling happily, the little short legs were so happy to run.One person and one dog are like running a race, chasing each other, sweating heartily.

"Little darling, little darling, come and chase me! Come on! Catch me until there is meat to eat!" Xiaomeng called out to the little short-legged little darling, and childishly made all kinds of funny moves towards the little darling .Once he saw that Xiaoguai had a tendency to surpass himself, he immediately quickened his pace, and then made all kinds of noises, not feeling at all that there was anything wrong with bullying a little puppy who was just born about [-] days old.

The little boy walked on his short legs, let out a childish cry, and cooperated with his mischievous master, and obediently chased him forward, his crystal clear eyes gleamed with pampering and tenderness that no one knew.

The innocent appearance of this person and dog is reflected in Jing Xin's eyes. Jing Xin is infected by this joy, and she can't help but smile. Like a runaway wild horse, it can't be jubilant.She also wished that the empress dowager could be so happy, after all, living in the palace is really too depressing!

Emperor Jingwen stood under the beautiful pine, looked at Xiaomeng who was innocent and mischievous like a child, and was slightly startled. Xiaomeng was wearing a green emerald smoked sweater, a pleated skirt scattered with water mist and green grass, and a silk sash with twelve jade buttons around her waist. The mouth, the shoulders are shaved into a waist, the muscles are fat and the air is blue.He moved against the wind, like a green elf, merging with the earth.

Is this really the empress dowager who ruthlessly took his country?

Emperor Jing Wen carefully searched for the Queen Mother's voice and smile in his mind, but found nothing.In his memory, only the indistinct appearance of the Empress Dowager in her previous life was separated by a screen.This is the first time I have seen such a lively and beautiful appearance. It turns out that the queen mother looks like this in private, which is in line with her cardamom-like age.

Zhou Shun behind Emperor Jing Wen was also amazed. Where is the empress dowager who was said to be cruel and ruthless?Where did this innocent and unaffected little girl come from?He sneaked a glance at Emperor Jingwen, his brows stretched, and a rare gentle look appeared on his face, which was far from the original appearance of looking for the Queen Mother who was full of thoughts and frowning.

Your majesty, it's because he forgot the big mouth the queen mother gave him just now, right?This is not a good thing!The Empress Dowager is only thirteen, and the Emperor is only twenty. Although the Empress Dowager is a Empress Dowager, she is still a perfect body. Speaking of which, if the late Emperor hadn't stepped in, the Empress Dowager might become a big hit in this year's general election.Now it can only be said that it is good fortune to trick people!

"Zhou Shun, let's go!" After stopping for a long time, Emperor Jingwen withdrew his loving gaze, looking at Zhou Shun indifferently but implied a warning.

Zhou Shun immediately lowered his head. He wouldn't foolishly ask, "Your Majesty, we have all arrived at Yongshou Palace and met the Queen Mother. Why don't we go there?"He is not stupid!This matter is obviously going to be buried deep in the bottom of my heart.

After leaving Yongshou Palace, Zhou Shun put the silver in the hands of the eunuch guarding the gate with a wink, and said kindly: "There is no need to report to Jing Xin about the emperor's coming, the emperor has his own plans. If the emperor finds out that it was you who leaked the news , even the queen mother can't keep you, understand?"

The gatekeeper eunuch got the money, and Zhou Shun gave him the money, so he naturally said yes.

After finishing the preparation, Zhou Shun breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the empress dowager was happy and quiet, and there was a pure heart serving beside her, otherwise he really couldn't afford it!It's also fortunate that the emperor didn't come to the door with great fanfare today, otherwise no matter how much money he has, it won't work!
