I really dare not mess with the Queen Mother

Chapter 84 The Empress Dowager [84]

Overnight, everything seemed to have changed.

First, Chen Fangfei poisoned and murdered His Majesty, causing His Majesty to vomit blood, and the whole hospital of Tai Hospital stayed up and down all night before saving him.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Fangfei confessed that the mastermind behind the scenes was the third prince Qin Shou. Only then did the officials know that since the new emperor succeeded to the throne, the seemingly idle third prince was actually harboring evil intentions.

The news spread in and out of the palace in an instant, and courtiers immediately wrote letters that the three princes were plotting to usurp the throne, and the crime was unforgivable, so they should be executed immediately.

After half a month of recuperation, Qin Zhao was finally able to go to court. Chen Fangfei had already been ordered by Gu Junran to be punished by being torn apart.

However, Qin Shou, the third prince who is currently being held in Dali Temple, is the son of Emperor Yuanqi after all. Even if the evidence of the crime is convincing, he has been interrogated step by step by Dali Temple.

In this way, there are rules and regulations, and it is a fact that he ordered Chen Fangfei to poison her. Sooner or later, he will die, but it will allow him to live longer.

In the early court, Qin Zhao said that he was not in good health and would abdicate, and the Ninth Prince would succeed him as the new king.

The courtiers were astonished, but they all listened to Huixiang.

Hui Chuan took the lead in expressing his position without raising any objections, and the courtiers responded one after another, saying that His Majesty is wise.

The edict of abdication has been drawn up, Qin Zhao originally wanted to show it to Gu Junran first, but since Gu Junran was poisoned, he began to stay behind closed doors.

Qin Zhaozhong's poison was prepared by her dark guards in advance. Although she didn't die, it made her unconscious for more than half a month, during which time Gu Junran never came to see her.

It's a lie to say in my heart that I'm not disappointed, even if I want to be angry with her, I won't be able to become so angry.

Gu Junran is really so cruel, so angry that he doesn't even want to see her?

It's just that if she doesn't leave now, she might die in front of Gu Junran.

She didn't want Gu Junran to see her when she died.

When she left, she must have looked very ugly. If Gu Junran saw it, she would definitely not like it.

Qin Zhao sighed in his heart, and said to Xiao Shengzi, "Let's declare."

Then, Xiao Shengzi began to read out her edict of abdication.

After the edict was finished, the Ninth Prince received the edict from below, and all the courtiers saluted him. Qin Zhao slowly stepped down from the throne, and the Ninth Prince stood in front of the throne instead.

Qin Zhao watched from the side. The young boy's face was still immature, but there was no panic in his eyes. He just quietly looked at the ministers below, as if he already had the aura of an emperor.

After the morning court, Qin Zhao went back to the palace to pack her luggage. She planned to leave the palace before tonight.

After tidying up most of the items, seeing Xiao Shengzi next to him, Qin Zhao asked, "The Empress Dowager, are you still alive..." Am I angry?

She spoke halfway, but then changed her words: "She hasn't been out of the Compassionate Ning Palace in the past few days?"

Xiao Shengzi hesitated, as if afraid to speak.

Qin Zhao's face sank: "Say!"

Xiao Shengzi finally panicked, and hurriedly said: "Returning to Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager came to take care of you every day when you were unconscious, but the Empress Dowager did not let the servants talk about it."

Qin Zhao was taken aback: "Come every day?"

Xiao Shengzi frowned, and said in a panic, "Master, I'm afraid this servant will be beheaded this time. Yes, the Empress Dowager comes every day!"

Qin Zhao was originally unhappy, but when he heard him say that, he seemed to be happy all of a sudden.

She hooked her lips and smiled: "Then your death is better than mine!"

She said, put down the salute in her hand, got up and walked outside the hall.

Xiao Shengzi hurriedly asked: "Master, where are you going?"

Qin Zhao laughed, "You don't care!"

Her tone of voice was extremely brisk, as if the sullen look about to get angry just now was another person.

At the same time, in the Ci Ning Palace.

Jinli is waiting for Gu Junran to draw a picture of peonies. Gu Junran has excellent painting skills, and the luxurious and majestic peonies seem to come alive under her brush.

Jinli offered a cup of tea, stood respectfully by the side, thought of something, and finally hesitated to say: "Your Majesty, someone from the Wuji Hall said that His Majesty is already packing his bags."

The pen in Gu Junran's hand paused, and a drop of ink dripped on the white paper. The mark was on the edge of the peony flower, which looked a bit out of place with the whole painting.

Gu Junran frowned slightly, put down the pen in his hand, and ordered: "Throw it away."

I jumped away from my eyelids: "My lady, this is a beautiful painting..."

Gu Junran's cold eyes stopped Jinli from what he was about to say next, and Jinli could only nod his head in response: "Yes, master, the servants are thrown away."

Gu Junran was in a bad mood today, the entire Compassionate Ning Palace was completely silent, no one dared to touch her bad luck.

On the contrary, I would like to leave, it seems that Gu Junran is in a bad mood because His Majesty is leaving.

Gu Junran lost interest in continuing to paint, so he went to the inner hall instead, lit incense himself, and read a book while lying on the imperial concubine's couch.

Jinli beckoned, she gave her a wink, and all the palace people in the palace immediately gave her a grateful glance, and all retreated.

These people are all good people who have served in the palace for a long time, so they naturally understand that Jinli is afraid that they will not serve well and make the queen mother angry, and this is to save their lives.

A group of people retreated, and one of the maids said in fear: "It's also thanks to Miss Jinli's kindness, otherwise I might not be able to save my little life today."

"Who says it's not, what's wrong with the Empress Dowager today, why do I feel a little, the rain is about to come..." Another person answered in a low voice.

"The mountain and rain are about to come and the wind is all over the building. I can't even explain this. Fortunately, the Queen Mother usually allows us to read books. You have seen this book in the dog's belly?"

While several people were chattering, a voice suddenly came from behind: "Who is the rain coming?"

Several people were taken aback, and immediately turned around.

I saw that Qin Zhao had already changed into a deep blue brocade robe. Even though she was not wearing a dragon robe, she still had a dignified appearance. In addition, she looked good, so I didn’t know which one it was. A romantic young man from a wealthy family.

Several people saluted after seeing her.

Qin Zhao smiled and waved his hands: "No."

She is not an emperor anymore, and after a few days, Qin Tianjian will choose an auspicious day, and the Ninth Prince will officially ascend the throne. Now it is really inappropriate for them to give her the emperor's etiquette.

A little maid boldly said: "Your Majesty is here to see the Empress Dowager?"

Qin Zhao nodded pretendingly: "Well, I haven't seen the Queen Mother for half a month, so I wanted to come to say hello."

The little maid immediately said: "Your Majesty is in the palace, please go in by yourself, Your Majesty."

Qin Zhao raised his eyebrows.

Go in by yourself?

Since when did the servants of the Compassionate Ning Palace become so unruly that they didn't even bother to introduce them?

Qin Zhao went in without knowing it, and walked towards the hall with strides.

When she walked to the inner hall, as soon as she raised her head, she met a pair of beautiful eyes inadvertently.

Gu Junran was sitting on the imperial concubine's chair, the hall was burning with good-smelling sandalwood, and the cigarettes were curling up. I saw that pretty girl was lazily lying on the imperial concubine's couch holding an ancient book.

As soon as they looked at each other, Qin Zhao was the first to smile, and saluted, "Good luck to the empress dowager."

Gu Junran didn't respond, Qin Zhao stood up straight by himself.

Seeing her coming in, Jinli took the initiative to retreat silently.

There were no outsiders in the hall, so Qin Zhao boldly walked up to Gu Junran.

At this time, Gu Junran had already lowered his eyes, and then turned his eyes back to the book in her hand.

Qin Zhao coughed lightly, pretending to be curious and poking his head over: "What book are you reading?"

Gu Junran took the book and leaned back again, obviously not wanting to show it to her.

Qin Zhao leaned forward cheekily, and finally moved her face closer. What she read was not the content of the book, but the expression on Gu Junran's face.

Gu Junran noticed her movement, frowned and raised his eyes, Qin Zhao's face was already in front of her.

It was as if she could kiss her as long as she moved a little further.

Gu Junran's face was a little unnatural, he gritted his teeth and called her: "Qin Zhao!"

Qin Zhao was also taken aback, just now she just wanted to see if Gu Junran was really angry with her, why did she inadvertently put it on his face.

Qin Zhao was clever, and immediately stood up straight, looking for something to say: "Well, have you had your lunch today?"

Gu Junran said with a cold face, "I've used it."

"Oh...it's been used." Qin Zhao looked at her, but was at a loss for words: "What is the lady going to do next?"

Gu Junran took a deep breath and was no longer in the mood to read. She put the book on the table next to her and looked up at Qin Zhao with a blank expression: "Are you feeling better?"

Qin Zhao nodded: "Ang, it's almost done."

Gu Junran looked at her coldly: "Are you going to run out when you feel better?"

Qin Zhao scratched his head, and said with a smile, "Didn't you just say that, I think the palace is too boring, and now that all the troubles in the court have been removed, I have no reason not to leave."

Gu Junran lowered his eyes and refused to speak.

Qin Zhao couldn't make up his mind, remembered something, and took out another handkerchief from his arms.

"Your Majesty, you gave it to me last time, and I've washed it clean." Qin Zhao said with a smile.

Gu Junran said coldly: "Take it away, you have used it, I don't want it anymore."

Qin Zhao was taken aback, thought of something, and quickly put it away: "Okay, then I will put it away, and I should keep it in my mind."

Gu Junran was silent for a while, then raised his eyes to look at her, and asked, "Are you stupid?"

Qin Zhao was taken aback: "Huh?"

Gu Junran took a look at her, and said: "I have so many ways to deal with Qin Shou, so you can use yourself as bait yourself? What if something really happens?"

Qin Zhao thought, anyway, he won't live for too long, this is called martyrdom, even if he dies, he will die heroically.

However, she understood that Gu Junran was caring for her, otherwise it would not have been possible to take care of her during her coma.

Qin Zhao nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, I will remember it later."

"And the future?" Gu Junran looked at her displeased.

Qin Zhao quickly shook his head and promised: "No, there is no future!"

Gu Junran ignored her, and picked up the book in her hand again. She didn't look sideways, and completely put Qin Zhao aside.

Qin Zhao thought for a while, then approached her a little closer, and boldly tugged at her sleeve: "Ma'am, I was wrong."

Gu Junran snorted softly.

Qin Zhao tugged at her hand again, then shook it.

"Ma'am, I know I was wrong."

Gu Junran seemed to be entangled by her faceless appearance, and finally raised her head, and said angrily: "Okay, how old are you, why are you not acting right?"
