Ren Qingrui shook his head in despair: "His Majesty is ill, and I don't know when he will be able to personally participate in the government affairs."
"Oh? Your Majesty, Liu Mingzhi, dared to ask, why is Your Majesty so ill? And what kind of emergency is it that even state affairs can be delayed and left to the hands of your ministers?"
"This...I don't know the art of Qihuang. I can't tell you what the symptoms of your Majesty's dragon body are. The imperial doctor has diagnosed and treated you several times but can't find out the cause."
"In this case, I wonder when the three imperial doctors Chu Renxin will return from the harem when they go to diagnose and treat His Majesty's dragon veins?"
"Think about it...I think it should be here soon. When I came out, Dr. Chu Renxinchu was checking His Majesty's pulse. I will only know what the situation is now when I go back to see him in person... ......."
"Husband, you are back!"
"Mingzhi, why are you back from Northern Xinjiang?"
"King Bingjian, the Ai family is polite."
An exclamation came from the back of the palace. Everyone in the palace looked towards the palace door beside the dragon platform. They saw the third princess Li Yan standing in the palace door wearing a phoenix robe. Looking at Young Master Liu's pretty face, she was full of surprise. color.
Also accompanying them were the Empress Dowager Nangong Meng and the Empress Dowager Chen Jie.
Liu Mingzhi came to his senses and hurriedly greeted her: "My son, Liu Mingzhi, pays homage to the Queen Mother and wishes her good health and a thousand years of life."
"My brother Liu Mingzhi meets the emperor's sister-in-law and is a thousand years old."
"Mingzhi, hurry up and forgive me."
"Side by side, the king is exempt from the courtesy."
"Thank you, Queen Mother, and thank you, Queen Sister-in-law."
"I pay my respects to the Empress Dowager, and to the Empress, I wish you a thousand years to live."
Nangong Meng looked blankly at the situation in the palace and gently waved his phoenix robe.
"My dear fellows, you will be spared any courtesy."
"Thank you, Queen Mother."
"The granddaughter-in-law pays homage to the imperial grandmother, the queen mother, and the aunt."
When Nangong Meng heard Ren Qingrui's voice, she realized that there was Ren Qingrui, the current empress, beside the imperial pillar that blocked her sight.
Looking sideways at Ren Qingrui, whose face was a little pale and unnatural, Nangong Meng's delicate phoenix eyes flashed with a hint of disgust, and she replied lightly.
"No gift!"
Queen Mother Chen Jie's reaction was almost the same as Nangong Meng's. The disgust in her beautiful eyes was stronger. She didn't even look at Ren Qingrui and said coldly.
"No gift!"
The third princess looked at her husband and nodded slightly to Ren Qingrui.
"The empress is exempt from the gift, and I dare not accept this great gift."
The responses from Nangong Meng and the others made Ren Qingrui feel confused. She looked at Nangong Meng and then at the officials in the palace. Her pretty face was full of helpless expressions.
She also knew in her heart why Nangong Meng, the royal grandmother, and Chen Jie, the queen mother, had such attitudes towards her.
But as the wife of her husband, there are some things...
Ren Qingrui sighed silently and stood aside with her head lowered and her eyebrows lowered. For the first time in sixteen years, she understood what it meant to be unpopular.
Before entering the palace, she was a rich lady and one of the most famous and talented women. In order to see her, the young men and scholars in Chengzhou came up with all kinds of schemes and almost broke their heads.
At that time, I was surrounded by stars, how could I have imagined that I would be in this situation today.
Liu Mingzhi glanced at Ren Qingrui's helpless expression, shook his head slightly and sighed secretly. Should he say that Ren Qingrui's beauty is a disaster, or should he say that Ren Qingrui's life is miserable!
As soon as you enter the palace, you will know what it means to be as deep as the sea as soon as you enter the palace.
It is really a sin for a woman to be beautiful.
After she was beautiful and married to a king, her sins only worsened.
Someone has to take the blame, especially when there is an unsatisfactory father, the blame must be shouldered even more.
Even if Li Ye neglected court affairs just because Li Ye was immoral and indulged in beauty, Ren Qingrui, as the queen, had nothing to do if she wanted to dissuade him.
After all, Li Ye is the emperor, and Ren Qingrui can only obey.
However, the root cause is always Ren Qingrui's beauty, no matter what the reason.
Ren Qingrui has to shoulder this matter, this is something that no one can avoid.
This is beautiful sin.
Liu Mingzhi turned around and gave the third princess a concerned look, and punched Nangong Meng in return: "Mother, I wonder why you, the emperor's sister-in-law, and Yan'er came to the Qinzheng Palace? Could it be that His Majesty is about to attend court?"
Nangong Meng shook his head silently and glanced at the empty dragon chair. There was a sadness in his eyes that hated iron for not being able to become steel.
"Your Majesty has not been personally involved in government affairs for half a month."
"The Ai family, the Queen Mother, Yan'er, mother and daughter were chatting in the palace. Suddenly we heard a commotion in the palace. We thought something big had happened, so we had to rush from the harem to the front of the palace to see what was going on."
"Now I know, it turns out that it was you, Mingzhi, who returned the throne."
"Okay, it's great that you can return to the court. Without you, the late emperor's appointed official, to stay in the court, I'm afraid Ruizong and the thousands of miles of land left by the late emperor will not last long."
"The ancestors of the Li family have spirits in heaven. After a hundred years of mourning for the family, how could they have the face to meet Ruizong?"
As Nangong Meng spoke, her charming cheeks were stained with a bright red, obviously due to extreme anger.
Liu Mingzhi nodded clearly and glanced at the Imperial Guards who were retreating like a tide outside the hall. The source of the noise that Nangong Meng and the others mentioned must be the reason why the Imperial Guards surrounded the Qinzheng Hall just now.
Seeing Nangong Meng's angry face, Liu Mingzhi was afraid that Nangong Meng would be angry because of Li Ye's absence, so he hurriedly spoke to comfort him.
"Mother, please be patient, sister-in-law."
"I have ordered three imperial doctors with superb medical skills to go into the harem to diagnose and treat His Majesty. If His Majesty's dragon body is only slightly ailing and nothing serious, I will boldly ask my mother and the emperor's sister-in-law to accompany me into the harem." Your Majesty, please come to Qinzheng Hall to handle government affairs."
"If His Majesty's dragon body is really in an emergency, then we can only let His Majesty recuperate for some time first."
Nangong Meng's face gradually returned to calm, and she nodded to Young Master Liu with a smile.
"That's very good. Just follow your wishes Mingzhi."
"Your Majesty, on the grounds that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, forbids the Queen Mother of the Ai family to interfere with his affairs when he is not in court. Now that you, the auxiliary minister appointed by Ruizong, are back, the Ai family will take a look at this evil... Your Majesty, he What other excuse is there to avoid going to court?"
Queen Mother Chen Jie also nodded in agreement: "The Ai family just listens to the queen and the king."
"Thank you, Queen Mother, Sister-in-law."
Nangong Meng smiled and nodded, looking at Young Master Liu with eyes filled with relief.
Chen Jie stood on one side, her beautiful eyes dodging again and again, not daring to look directly at Young Master Liu who was standing in front of her. After all, she was naked in the harem because of the matter of her child Li Ye's throne, and she still had the past experience of standing naked in front of Young Master Liu. It is still vivid in her mind that as a woman, Chen Jie has a delicate mind and it is impossible to put this past incident behind her.
The third princess gently tugged on Young Master Liu's cloak: "Husband, what happened just now? Even if you returned the favor, it wouldn't cause such a big fuss, right?"
Liu Mingzhi thought for a moment, glanced at Ren Qingrui and spoke softly, and then told what happened in Qinzheng Hall.
After Young Master Liu finished speaking, Nangong Meng and Chen Jie looked at Ren Qingrui, who was standing not far away, with anger flashing in their beautiful eyes.
Li Ye imprisoned himself, the royal grandmother, and his mother in the harem on the grounds that they were not allowed to interfere in politics, and now he actually handed over the commanding order of 100,000 imperial guards into the hands of the queen.
Isn't this treating one's own country and country as child's play?
Thinking of this, Nangong Meng's full chest started to rise and fall, and there was a slight pain.
Husband Li Zhengxiong was a talented man, but his son Li Baiyu was such a wise man, so how could he give birth to such unsatisfactory descendants?
Chen Jie's beautiful eyes flashed with helplessness and she hurriedly supported Nangong Meng.
"Mother, calm down."
"Your Majesty, Chu Renxin, see you..."
"I don't know, the Empress Dowager, but the Empress Dowager is here. I'm rude."
"Greetings to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, may you live a thousand years."
