Chapter 467 Royal Study, the confrontation of the Empress

It was very clear in her mind that the Empress Dowager must have been unhappy with her these days. The previous scene in Cining Palace still made her very proud, but at this time, she was a little shocked when she thought of it. Don't disturb the Empress Dowager this time. Don't let her seize her handle and ask the emperor to convict herself. Even if she is not convicted, let the king It's also troublesome for me to divorce myself.

Therefore, at this time, she prefers to believe in her aunt, who has always loved herself. Moreover, the queen is no longer powerful and can still speak in front of the emperor. She believes that as long as the queen's aunt says a few words for herself, even if Mo's tongue is bright, it is useless.

Thinking of her pride, she came to the queen's palace with people without fear.

She entered the palace with the name sticker given to her by the queen, but before she reached the queen's palace, she was robbed by the eunuch and went to the emperor's imperial study on the way. She was placed under the high Danque by the eunuch with a cold face. The maids around her rushed to the outside of the palace to see that Zuo Jinquan was an unknown eunuch, neat and neat After standing in two rows, Ling Ruier realized that the big thing was not good.

It looks like he is going to have an operation on her.

The sun is getting hotter and hotter, which makes her itchy and hot all over. Her skin is allergic to the direct sunlight. Under such a strong sun, there are small protruding pimples on her face, which are itchy and uncomfortable, but she really dares not move. Even if she is usually proud and arrogant, she knows that this is the emperor's imperial study. Be careful, you will lose your head.

Her legs were getting sore. She secretly looked at the door of the palace. Feng Juexuan didn't even have a figure. When she came over early on the road, she sent someone to ask Feng Juexuan for help. But it has been an hour or two, and there is still no one. Why didn't let her be anxious? At this time, she had lost her previous arrogance and remembered that if the emperor was angry, No one can save her,

I was shocked and scared for a moment. The more I thought about it, the more panicked I became. I couldn't even kneel down.

Finally, just when she was afraid that she could hardly support it, she saw several familiar palace people coming here far away. Wasn't it the queen's aunt? She was excited with tears for a moment. It was better for the queen's aunt. Hearing that she was punished here, she immediately came over.

"Auntie, Queen's aunt, Queen Mother!" Ling Ruier was almost incoherent. Tears fell down on the dry and hot ground one by one. She was immediately hit by the hot sun. She grabbed a life-saving straw, walked a few steps on her knees, moved twice on the hot ground with difficulty, and could no longer move.

Raising his tearful eyes and begging to look at the queen.

The queen walked slowly over and stood in front of her, with her back, and her slender body fell a long shadow on the ground. So the backlight made Ling Ruier almost unable to see the queen's face clearly. She only had a gentle smile, and her heart became more and more sad. She only felt that she was the person who had been greatly wronged.

"Rier, why did you get rid of the child in Mo's stomach? That's the real phoenix dragon grandson?" The queen looked at Ling Ruier, and a trace of depression flashed in her eyes. She did not ask Ling Ruier what was going on, but directly asked Ling Ruier why she had lost the child, which was equivalent to making Ling Ruier plead guilty.

But Ling Rui'er was full of excitement at this time. How could she notice these details? She lay on the ground and cried bitterly and said, "Queen's aunt, I am the prince's concubine. I didn't give birth to the eldest son, prince, how can the prince give birth to the eldest son of a concubine? This... This is to set us as the Duke of Zheng Where is the house, aunt queen, don't you understand what I mean?

Ling Ruier was afraid that the queen would scold her about this, so she deliberately reminded the queen in her words that it was because there was no eldest son in the queen's middle palace that the throne might fall on the king of Chu, not because he took a long word.

However, this was not what she should say as a minister and niece, so it seemed extremely rude, and it happened to be the queen's heart disease. The queen's face suddenly sank, and an uncontrollable anger surged from the bottom of her eyes, but then she turned around and stopped saying anything and took people to the imperial study.

In Emperor Zongwen's imperial study, there was a room full of files. Emperor Zongwen, who was sitting behind the case, was bowing his head and criticizing it. From time to time, he picked up a pen and criticized it on the case book. Liu Xi, the eunuch, waited aside and sometimes poured tea for him again. The room was very quiet, with only the rustling sound of turning the pages.

A small eunuch secretly made a few movements at the door. Liu Xi saw that Emperor Zongwen was not paying attention and retreated quietly to the door. He was seeing the Empress standing on the door with someone and hurriedly came forward to salute.

"What is the emperor doing?" The queen asked gently. She still had some illness on her face, and it was obvious that she was not well. She hadn't seen it for a while, and there were a few more crow's feet in the corners of her eyes. She knew that she was worried about the king of Yan. Liu Xi became more and more cautiously and smiled and said, "The emperor is criticizing the medal."

If the queen doesn't mention the matter of Princess Yan, Liu Xi still consciously does not mention this topic. Speaking of this topic, he can't make his own decisions. Just now, Lord Mo cried in the imperial study, and then heard from the imperial doctor that the concubine Mo can no longer have children. Even if she survives this time, she will have no chance to have children. Liu Xi has to She sighed that the princess Chu, who usually looked delicate and weak, was really cruel.

"Go to tell the emperor, that is, I went to cook iced mung bean soup in person and brought it, and asked the emperor if he would like to drink some?" The queen smiled and gave face to the close eunuch beside Emperor Zong Wen.

"Yes, I'm going to return it." Liu Xi consciously stepped back two steps, said respectfully, and then turned into the imperial study.

"But the queen is here?" After the book case, Emperor Zong Wen lowered his head and asked faintly.

"Yes, the queen said that she brought your favorite iced mung bean soup, and she cooked it herself." Liu Xi walked to Emperor Zong Wen and bowed his head.

"Then let her in, so that she doesn't have to do her best."

Emperor Wen's words were really unpleasant, mocking and sarcastic. Even Liu Xi's meaning in the words was a little good. He simply pretended not to understand. He came to the door again and respectfully said to the queen at the door, "Queen, please come in."

"Thank you, Grandpa Liu." The queen was completely unofficially polite, only bringing in a maid of honor holding iced mung bean soup.

I went inside to see the ceremony with the queen, took a small plate of iced mung bean soup from the maid and put it in front of Emperor Zong Wen's case, and said gently, "Your Majesty, the weather is hot. At this time, I have prepared some mung bean soup for the emperor, and I have iced them with deep well water for the emperor to relieve the summer heat."

"Thank you for your hard work, queen." Emperor Zong Wen raised his head from behind the case, put down the file in his hand, smiled faintly, took the soup plate handed over by the queen, took two bites and put it aside.

"Your Majesty, Rui'er... but what's wrong?" The queen looked at him and asked carefully. Recently, she has angered the emperor again and again. This time, she was sick because of Feng Juelei's affairs. The emperor only came to see it twice, and then he never came again. Thinking of this, she was depressed.

But now is not the time to be annoyed.

"The side concubine in the boss's mansion was pregnant with a child. Princess Yan not only ordered the child in the side concubine's belly, but also did not ask for medical treatment, and even dragged people to the woodshed. If Mo Aiqing hadn't go quickly, I'm afraid she would have died long ago. The boss, the princess, married was really good. Before, she heard that she had a deep boudoir and elegant and generous. , how can you be so vicious? Let someone check who said this at that time.

Emperor Zongwen was faint. After putting down the soup dish, his eyes fell on the queen, with anger, and his deep eyes made the queen hardly look at him.

This is really angry!

Ling Ruier is indeed a troublemaker, and she can't live anywhere.

The queen wanted to take advantage of the empress dowager when she fought in the ring. Now it seems that she is really not enough and has more than enough to fail.

"Your Majesty, Ling Ruier is also too young and ignorant, and she is newly married and in love with His Royal Highness the King of Chu, so she did this kind of thing, or there are other hidden things in it. You see that His Royal Highness the King of Chu is the father of the child in Concubine Mo, and he didn't say anything. Is it that this matter or there are other factors in it?"

The queen smiled gently, took the soup dish placed by Emperor Zong Wen on the corner of the case and put it in the tray of the palace maid behind her.

It doesn't matter what Ling Rui'er is doing, but it can't hurt the face of the daughter of the Duke of Dingguo Mansion. If people know that the young lady of Dingguo Mansion is superficially and respectful, she is actually vicious. In the future, who dares to marry the daughter of the Duke of Dingguo Mansion and which one will marry with the Duke of Dingguo Mansion? What is the strength of the Duke of Dingguo Mansion? There is a big loss.

"Is the queen here to plead for Ling Ruier?" Emperor Zong Wen's eyes became more and more gloomy, and he said coldly.

"I dare not. I just want to wait for His Royal Highness to come back. It must be a matter of his house, and only he knows the specific accident." The queen smiled and said that she was not dissatisfied at all because of Emperor Zong Wen's attitude. Suddenly, she thought about this method in her palace for a long time.

No matter what the truth of the matter is, if Feng Juexuan really pushes the matter all over Ling Ruier, Ling Ruier will certainly be suspended, and Feng Juexuan's contact with the Duke of Dingguo has also been broken, so in fact, the queen is still happy to push Feng Juexuan all the matter on Ling Ruier.

Knowing her own affairs, the queen knows very well that her two brothers have fallen to Feng Juexuan after Feng Juelei lost power. If Ling Ruier gave birth to a son, the relationship with the Duke of Dingguo will be even more extraordinary, which is closer than her relationship with the Duke of Dingguo.

Thinking of this, the queen's anger can't be suppressed, but it's also a little sad. She and the empress dowager have both come from the same state mansion, and now there are more Ling Rui'er, each with their own plans and calculations. Ding Guogong's mansion has moved among the princes, not because no matter from which aspect These are all related to the Duke of Dingguo.

The Duke of Dingguo really has no position to say. As long as anyone can bring him wealth, the so-called family affection is sometimes as thin as a piece of paper.

"The boss went to Xishan to train the new army last night and can't come back for half a month. Do you also want Ling Ruier to wait until half a month later?" Emperor Zongwen only asked.

This was a little heavy, and the queen couldn't stand any longer and suddenly knelt down: "Your Majesty, how dare I say such a thing? I just did as my mother and aunt. When such a thing happened to the king's mansion of Chu, I felt ashamed to see anyone, but even if my concubine wanted to hide, I couldn't avoid it, so I simply Come to the emperor and make a statement. If the emperor feels that what the concubine said is wrong, he will punish the concubine, so that the concubine's brother thinks that the concubine is thinking about the royal family, but forgets everything about his mother's family.
