Since when have you been such an emotional person?

Li Chengqi said heartily.

Cui Tao looked at him with a smile.

She was originally a beautiful woman with snow-skinned skin, and decades of pampering and pampering made her not look old at all.

On the contrary, it made her beauty more noble and unattainable, not to mention looking up, in front of her, it seemed that looking up was disrespectful.

The young man slowly picked up the teacup, the fragrance of the tea was overflowing, he didn't understand why the empress dowager looked down on his tea so much, so he took a sip and savored it carefully.

Calculating the time, Zhang Zhusou should have gone to Cui's house.

He is in no hurry.

Not in a hurry at all.

Cui Taoxi is very patient.

Changle Palace was originally her husband's bedroom, and later her son's bedroom. When she came to Changle Palace, it was no different from returning home.

She looked at Li Chengqi.

The young man drank tea quietly, his posture was impeccably beautiful, his face seemed distressed, as if he took her words to heart and was hesitating.

Because of drooping eyes, the red mole is looming.

But if you look closely, it doesn't look like that, at least the Qi Yun expression is not like that at all.

Li Zhaoshi's personality is far inferior to that of the young man in front of him, who is full of scheming, resentment and calculations.

But he still pretended not to ask about court affairs, and he just had fun every day.

The most beloved, the only sister who is sincerely treated, was tortured to return to the country less than half a year after her marriage. In name, she was visiting her relatives, but in fact she was asking for help. When she came back, she saw that her brother was sicker than when she was married. How could the elder brother's heart tell Li Zhao what happened to him?

He couldn't tell, he acted nonchalantly, and was afraid of being spotted by Li Zhao. During the month at home, he only met his brother a few times.

After one month, Zhuo Zhuo went back, bidding farewell to his parents and elder brother with his usual face.

Later, Li Zhaoyin vaguely guessed the burning situation, and took people out of the city to chase after him, but was ordered by Li Yanyin to shoot off the horse with an arrow. When he fell off the horse, he broke his arm, and when he returned home, he had a high fever. He was half asleep and half awake for more than ten days. Burning news.

Sometimes even Cui Taoxi was surprised. In the days after Zhuo Zhuo's death, Li Chengqi was still respectful and filial to Li Yanyin. What was he thinking at that time.

It's so different. Looking at it this way, it doesn't look like it at all.

Li Zhao looks like a teenager, but the freshness in his eyes is not what Li Zhao once had.

Cui Taoxi didn't even notice, she inadvertently squinted her eyes, as if she wasn't used to such eyes.

Li Chengqi put down the teacup, "This is the Empress Dowager's family business."

Cui Taoxi nodded slightly.

"It's more a matter of state." Li Chengqi added lightly. Thanks to Cui Min, he doesn't have any good feelings for the Cui family. Of course, he doesn't have any affection for the Li family. He always treats everyone equally. Everyone in the house was killed, and the blood that flowed out was enough to dye half of the long street red, so why not have one more Cui Yingyi?"

He leaned closer, as if he was afraid that Cui Taoxi would not be able to hear clearly, and said slowly, softly, and humbly: "Cheating is a capital offense, and Cui Yingyi is not just involved in it, he is the mastermind, the empress dowager, you Do you understand what Gu means?"

Cui Taoxi looked up at him.

She has thick and colorful eyes, and she is cold and majestic when she is not smiling, making people want to bow down at her feet without daring to disobey the slightest bit.

When Li Chengqi looked at her, his eyes were calm.

"Then," the fingertips painted with dark red Kodan lightly slid across the desk, the woman's voice was neither high nor low, with a smile as usual, "Please Your Majesty, leave him a whole body."

As soon as the words fell, the young emperor looked at her as expected, with surprise flashing in his eyes.

Cui Taoxi's tone was light, "In this way, it will not be regarded as insulting the good coffin I ordered someone to pick."

The young man was sitting upright, but Cui Taoxi noticed that his shoulders relaxed for a moment.

Because she didn't plead for Cui Yingyi to relax?

Cui Taoxi thought it was a bit funny, but after only a few hours of acquaintance, Cui Taoxi already knew that this young man would never dispose of Cui Yingyi because of her pleading, since her opinion is useless, why should she care?

There seemed to be a smile on the corner of Li Chengqi's lips, "Yes." He said, "Thank you, Empress Dowager."

With Li Chengqi's coldness and the coolness within the royal family, one of the most important reasons why Li Chengqi and Cui Taoxi can behave so decently is that their mother and son can always reach consensus on important matters.

For example, Cui Min deserves to die.

At this point, their tacit understanding is speechless and they hit it off.

Cui Taoxi glanced at his face for a moment, sneered, seemed to be mocking, but also said jokingly: "I should be the one thanking His Majesty."

Li Chengqi got up immediately, "Don't dare."

Cui Taoxi looked unimpressed, but she didn't bother to wave her hand to stop her.

If the little emperor is willing to worship, let him do so.

"I have no intention of embarrassing the Cui family," which is of course not true. The Cui family was domineering and domineering because of Cui Yin. At that time, people said that there were two surnames in the world. One of the surnames mentioned was naturally the Li family, and the other was the surname. It is the Cui family. Li Chengqi's dislike for the Cui family is deeply rooted. After he ascended the throne, firstly, the people's hearts were unstable, and secondly, the Cui family was Cui Taoxi's natal family and his maternal ancestor's family, so he did not do anything about it. , Gu is also very sad."

The young man lowered his eyes, and there was a look of grief on his face, "The Cui family is a famous family, and has been a prince for many generations. Such a person, it must be due to loneliness."

Cui Taoxi glanced at the pretending Li Chengqi with a half-smile, and asked suspiciously: "Why is Your Majesty not being strict in governing the family? I didn't know that His Majesty also had Cui's blood on her body."

What the Empress Dowager said was not polite at all, Li Chengqi bowed her head, and answered with reason and evidence, "Gu is the son of the late emperor, the Cui family is connected with His Majesty, so it is naturally related to me."

This kid really doesn't want any face.

From this point of view, he was quite like Li Zhao.

Some palace people came up to exchange several dishes of refreshments, all of which were exquisite.

Cui Taoxi picked out a bowl of peach juice crème fraîche. The crème fraiche was soft, with a mild milky aroma and a sweet peach flavor. The peach flesh had been candied before, which retained the sweetness of the peach itself and removed the sourness.

Li Chengqi saw that she had eaten two spoonfuls before she put it down, thinking that she would send the cook who made this tea to Beiyuan at night.

Then she tried a piece of gold cake, which she didn't like, only a little.

Qing Ai stood outside the bead curtain and called softly, "Your Majesty."

Li Chengqi motioned for him to come in.

Qing Ai came to Li Chengqi's side and lowered her voice, "Master Zhang is here, do you want to make an announcement?"

Li Chengqi looked at the Empress Dowager, Cui Taoxi knew that he was just asking for her opinion in a symbolic way, and there was nothing wrong with it, "Your Majesty is the master of the world." She smiled, as if laughing at what Li Chengqi had to do when she was redundant behavior.

Li Chengqi said: "Let him come over."

Zhang Zhusou strode in.

Seeing a female family member stop in her footsteps, she stops outside the bead curtain.

Cui Taoxi lacked interest.

When he bowed down, no one inside dared to look up and said, "Your Majesty..."

"Empress Dowager." Li Chengqi reminded.

Zhang Zhusou's face remained unchanged.

Everyone knew about Cui Yingyi's relationship with the Empress Dowager, her nephew was arrested half an hour ago, and now she wants to say in front of the most honorable woman in the entire Zhou Dynasty, Your Majesty, the Marquis of Cui County has been arrested.

Fortunately, what Zhang Zhusou did was to offend anyone except the emperor, so he kowtowed: "Your Majesty."

He was waiting for Li Chengqi to let him speak.

Li Chengqi said: "Speak."

Zhang Zhusou.

Want to be the leader.

Cui Taoxi was surprised for a moment.

Zhao Shangxing was pulled up by Li Yanyin with one hand, but he turned against Li Chengqi on the night Li Chengqi forced the palace.

Even though Li Chengqi has meritorious service, Li Chengqi has never fully trusted him. Although he was still made the leader of the forbidden army, he later set up a prince of desire and divided the power of the forbidden army.

The leader of Yuhou was a mad dog raised by Li Zhao, and now he was kneeling respectfully in front of the little emperor, it was rare for Cui Taoxi to feel the great changes in the world.

"I have followed your Majesty's order, and all the criminals have been sent to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for trial." Among them, there were 120 examinees, and Lu Sheng was killed, so there was one less person. It was also because he was killed that Zhang Zhusou found the murderer.

Under pressure, Fang asked that he was ordered by Cui Yingyi to kill, because Lu Sheng was one of 120 and the only one who had seen Cui Yingyi.

Maybe Lu Sheng didn't know that Cui Yingyi was the mastermind of the fraud case, but he had to die to avoid any danger.

Among these criminals, Cui Yingyi was naturally included.

Cui Taoxi put a piece of soft sugar cake into his mouth, his expression was indifferent, he didn't care at all.

With the Cui family being the thorn in the flesh of the former emperor, and the new emperor in front of him claiming that he had not changed his father's will for three years, Cui Yingyi's move did not intend to bring the whole family to die together.

The first emperor suppressed the Cui family but did not kill them all. He still protected the superficial glory of the Cui family because he was the son of Cui Taoxi and was connected with the Cui family.

However, Xindi is different.

Xindi has nothing to do with Cui Shi.

Although Cui Taoxi has a cold personality, she is still unwilling to ruin the whole clan because of a fool. Some people in the clan deserve to die, but most of them are indeed innocent.

"Gu knows." Li Chengqi said: "The documents are sent to Changning Palace."

Zhang Zhusou said: "Yes."

After seeing the ceremony, he got up and went out.

Changning Hall is where Xie Mingyue's office is located, Cui Taoxi raised his eyebrows.

She heard that the little emperor was close to Xie Mingyue and far away from Li Yan, and seeing what he did today, it was true.

Cui Taoxi said: "Your Majesty takes care of everything every day, so I won't bother you."

Li Chengqi got up to see her off, "The empress dowager won't stay a little longer?" He thought for a while, "How many dishes are the new cooks in the imperial dining room doing well."

Facing Cui Taoxi, he couldn't even find anything else to say except business.

Cui Taoxi smiled and said: "Although the food is good, the tea is bad."

Li Chengqi was speechless and sent Cui Taoxi out of the palace.

It rained heavily last night, today the sky is blue, the sun is shining on this woman in luxurious palace attire, the pearls and emeralds all over her body make Li Chengqi's eyes sting for a moment.

With such sunlight, Li Chengqi couldn't see her face clearly, only those dazzling jewels.

The woman tilted her head, and suddenly said to Li Chengqi: "My son Li Zhao was born with intelligence."

Li Chengqi didn't expect to hear Cui Taoxi's evaluation after she died and lived again, she was silent for a while, and said with a smile: "I have heard about the former emperor, and the gentlemen in the palace said that His Majesty is a god who saved the world."

"Early wisdom and early death is not a good thing." Cui Taoxi's voice was indifferent.

Since she entered Changle Palace, she has never spoken in such a tone, it is like a piece of solid ice, piercing cold and painful, chilling to the bone.

Li Chengqi was speechless for a moment.

He wanted to laugh and explain, but he didn't know what to say.

He thought, Gu also didn't want to die early.

Life and death have fate, and it is difficult to encourage the power of the world alone.

So he rubbed his nose, nodded and smiled bitterly, "Yes."

"So," Cui Taoxi seemed to glance at him, and it seemed that the sun was too glaring, and Li Chengqi had an illusion, "Little Emperor, please do it yourself."
