While he was talking, two people suddenly walked up behind him. Xu Qingmo turned around subconsciously and saw a touch of black. This is His Majesty's favorite color to wear when going to court.
Xu Qingmo quickly knelt down and said, "Hail your Majesty!"
Mrs. Xu finally realized what she was doing and hurriedly followed the queen in saluting.
When the emperor saw Mrs. Xu's appearance, he knew that she was here to complain. He couldn't help but joked: "Who bullied my sister-in-law and came to the queen to cry?"
Mrs. Xu is much younger than the Queen. During the years when the Queen entered the palace, Mrs. Xu was still a child. She often came to play with the Queen. When she saw the Emperor, she would softly call her the Emperor's brother-in-law.
Mrs. Xu was a little embarrassed and stood aside without saying a word.
Seeing Mrs. Xu's appearance, the queen was full of disgust, but she still helped the emperor sit down and said: "She has come to express her grievances to her precious son. She has been crying all morning and making trouble with her concubines. He said that if I don’t care about you, I will go and beat the drum!”
The emperor glanced at Mrs. Xu and smiled helplessly: "You still want to go and beat the drum, but Lin Shangshu came to complain early in the morning, saying that your daughter beat up all the maids in his son's yard. , you actually came to the Queen to complain!"
Mrs. Xu became angry instantly: "He is talking nonsense. Your Majesty, look at our Mo Mo, how old she is. How could such a weak little girl beat up all the maids in his yard?" Well, he is simply slanderous!"
The "weak" Xu Qingmo stood aside and didn't know what to say. She felt that she should pretend to be more weak, but she didn't know how to dress up. In the end, she had to stand there blankly, pretending that she didn't hear anything. .
The emperor glanced at Xu Qingmo and saw that her face was at a loss. He couldn't hold it back for a moment and actually laughed out loud: "Okay, look, you have forced your daughter to do it. She has been riding horses and shooting arrows since she was a child. Where did she come from? Wenwen is weak, even if you want to cry, you have to find some decent reason!"
"His Majesty……"
"Okay, stop crying!" The emperor interrupted Mrs. Xu, "I understand the whole story. Xu Yanquan did suffer some losses, but he should also suffer. At such an old age, You are about to get married and have children, and you don’t even have the slightest bit of guarding against others! But your daughter is good, she is not old, but she has some thoughts. If she hadn’t been prepared earlier this time, Xu Yanquan would have been dumb this time. , there is no way!"
Mrs. Xu closed her mouth in grievance, with two crystal tears hanging from the corners of her eyes.
The Queen felt a little distressed when she saw Mrs. Xu like this: "Your Majesty is right, but Lin Shaoyang has indeed had the intention to harm others. A young man has such vicious thoughts. If he is not taught a lesson, he will go to I still don’t know what will happen next?”
The emperor patted the queen's hand: "Don't worry, I have taught them a lesson. Lin Shaoyang will naturally not get any good results. I have punished Lin Shangshu for his incompetence in educating his son. He will be punished and go home." Of course I have to teach my son a lesson!"
The queen then breathed a sigh of relief: "I have been thinking about harming others at a young age. I don't know what kind of discord the two of them have, so they would use such vicious methods."
The emperor sighed softly: "How do we know about the young man?"
Mrs. Xu felt better knowing that Lin Shangshu had been beaten, but she still felt aggrieved: "Then yesterday their servants beat Mo Mo's personal maid, how should this be settled?"
"How do you deal with this?" The queen frowned slightly, "They beat your maid, but you won't beat her back? How come my aunt's temperament gave birth to a girl like you who can only cry and cry!"
Madam Xu snorted: "That's what the Queen said. If we fight back, don't say we bullied others again!"
The Queen looked at Mrs. Xu for a long time and felt a headache, but finally said: "I have prepared some nourishing medicine for the child of Yanquan. He must take good care of his body!"
Mrs. Xu was a little satisfied: "I understand!"
After the matter came to an end, the queen wanted to talk to Mrs. Xu about herself. Xu Qingmo was not married yet, so there were some words that were not suitable for her to listen to, so the queen asked the maid to take her for a walk in the imperial garden.
When Xu Qingmo left, he heard the queen say: "...when will you give Marquis Ningyuan two more children..."
After Xu Qingmo was taken out, the emperor and the empress took turns asking Mrs. Xu, especially the empress: "You always say that Marquis Ning Yuan only has two children, so when will you have another child of your own?"
"Momo and the others are still young..."
Before Mrs. Xu could finish her words, she was interrupted by the emperor: "You are the legitimate mother, so you should have a child of your own!"
"Yeah, a few years ago, you said that the two children were still young and you were afraid that you couldn't take care of them yourself. Now they are not too young. It's time to raise a child of your own. !" The queen said earnestly, "You are a legitimate wife and you have no children of your own. What are you like!"
Mrs. Xu raised her head and glanced at the queen, and sighed softly: "A few days ago, Mo Mo also told his wife that he hoped that I could give her a younger brother and sister, but after all, this is the child of the Marquis, or... The Marquis himself has the final say!"
The blame was directly thrown on Marquis Ning Yuan, who was far away. Ning Yuan Marquis was away all year round and was working for His Majesty. For a while, neither the emperor nor the empress could say anything else.
Xu Qingmo followed the palace maid to the Imperial Garden. The weather was slightly cool and there were no flowers blooming in the Imperial Garden except for the tribute chrysanthemums. After walking around for a while, she felt a little bored and found a random place to sit down.
Xu Qingmo sat there, thinking about the way Mrs. Xu was fooling around with the Queen, and then thinking about the way Mrs. Xu was killed in the mourning hall wearing mourning clothes, and felt sour in her heart.
So what if the relationship between the sisters is so deep now? In the end, it was not destroyed by a few letters of treason and collaboration with the enemy. Xu Qingmo still remembers the Queen's words: "What I can do is to return their corpses to the Xu family." !”
Xu Qingmo sat there with sad eyes. In order to defend the territory, his father and brother wrapped their bodies in horse leather, but they were charged with treason and treason. In order to save her life, her aunt died in the mourning hall, but she, in order to return the Xu family An innocent woman, who took the body of a daughter and went into battle wearing armor, was finally betrayed, imprisoned, and died in Ruyun Pavilion.
How ridiculous, how sad!
