Early the next morning, the emperor went to Cining Palace to plead for his beloved concubine.
After listening to the emperor's long speech and clarifying the stakes for herself, the empress dowager said to the emperor with a smile: "Your Majesty, since you have such considerations, let this matter be over with! The emperor came at the right time today, and the Ai family was about to join us. The emperor has something to say!" The empress dowager also saw clearly that the concubine in this palace would definitely not live long, so why should she have a dispute with the emperor!
When the emperor heard this, he was overjoyed: "Please tell me, Huang'e Niang, I will handle it for you no matter what!" It was the Jade Concubine who was wrong in this matter, and she filled the gap for Huang'e Niang. He was originally very polite. Confused about how to compensate. But now that Huang E Niang is willing to exchange conditions, not to mention a single condition, even if ten of them are willing to rely on her, anyway, his Huang E Niang is always good for him and the dynasty.
Hearing this, the Queen Mother smiled even more sincerely. This smile made the emperor feel a chill in his heart. Every time his mother-in-law smiled like this, he would suffer a big loss.
Ignoring the emperor's wary eyes, the Queen Mother stated her request generously: "The Ai family wants the emperor to transfer this girl Ah Qiao to the Yangxin Hall to be a maid, and take care of the emperor's food and daily life on behalf of the Ai family!"
The emperor's eyes widened for a moment, and his eyeballs almost popped out: wtf, I can still survive if she takes care of me.
Thinking back to the previous confrontation between himself and Jin Qing, the emperor glanced at the Queen Mother in confusion. Could it be that the Queen Mother was switched out when she gave birth to him? At this time, he found his biological son who was living among the people. Now he wants to You want to kill yourself so that you can usurp the throne!
The Queen Mother, who didn't know that the Emperor was contemplating a great human tragedy, stared at the Emperor's expression closely and snickered with interest. It's rare to see the emperor looking so defeated. It seems that this clever girl really hit the emperor hard!
This is a good thing, lest the emperor be blinded by power and do something stupid.
Seeing the emperor's refusal expression at this time, the empress dowager became more determined in her previous thoughts.
Finally, the emperor was cruel and gritted his teeth and said to Zhang Lang beside him: "The jade concubine has no words and deeds. She broke into Cining Palace at night and attacked the Queen Mother. Now she has removed her title and rushed to Beisan Palace (Leng Palace)."
Seeing Zhang Lang go down to do things with the order, the sadness in the emperor's heart has turned into a river: His beauty, his teeth were almost broken just now.
Looking at the empress dowager who was silent on the side and still smiling as before, the emperor asked cautiously: "Is the empress happy if my son is handling it like this?"
The Queen Mother looked at the Emperor and nodded with a smile: "Thunder, rain and dew are all the Emperor's favor. The Emperor is decisive in killing. The Ai family is naturally proud of the Emperor!"
The emperor was relieved when he heard the Queen Mother say this.
Using an ignorant concubine in exchange for a pure life is not a big loss in the end.
Then the emperor handed over his hands to the empress dowager: "I have something to do, so I can't spend more time with the empress. Please pay attention to your diet and daily life. I will come back tomorrow to pay my respects to the empress. I will leave." After that, Then he got up and left with a group of palace people behind him.
Unexpectedly, the Empress Dowager stopped him behind him at this time: "Your Majesty, the Ai family will ask Ah Qiao to report to you soon."
The emperor was stunned when he heard the words, and sweat suddenly broke out on his back. He turned around in a hurry and asked: "Empress Huang, didn't we agree?"
The Queen Mother looked confused: "What did we agree on?"
The emperor felt a little sick when he saw the Queen Mother's dull expression. The Queen Mother's ability to pretend to be stupid was really getting better and better.
There was no other way, so the emperor had no choice but to withdraw from the people around him and reminded the queen mother: "Didn't I send the concubine to Beisan Institute in exchange for the emperor's mother not sending Aqiao's slave to my place for duty?" At this time, the emperor Still unwilling to face the reality that he was deceived by the Queen Mother.
The key point is that he is really a little timid towards Jin Qing. This dog slave seems to be afraid of nothing in his eyes. Why would the Queen trust such a weird slave so much!
When the Empress Dowager heard the Emperor's words, she burst out laughing: "Your Majesty! You are the Lord of all people, and the Emperor who sets an example for all people in every word and deed. How can the Emperor negotiate terms of exchange with others! So I'm sorry. I didn’t talk to you about anything just now, it’s just that the Aijia just planned to tell you that Ah Qiao will be transferred to you, the rest is your own overthinking!”
The emperor recalled the previous conversation, and sure enough, what the queen mother said was "The emperor came just in time today. The Ai family is about to talk to the emperor about something!" instead of "The Ai family also has something to discuss with the emperor." Don't read these two sentences. There was not much difference in the words, but in fact the meaning of the words was very different, and I actually agreed simply and neatly. I really wanted to punch myself just now.
The emperor's heart felt cold. It was over. He had been misled by the emperor's mother. This mute would definitely suffer.
The Queen Mother picked up the tea cup and blew it gently: What is a means, it is to achieve all your wishes, make the other party suffer a dumb loss, and at the same time make the other party unable to say anything bad about you.
Thinking of this, the emperor did not leave, sat down on the soft couch, and asked the empress dowager angrily: "Where is the jade concubine!"
This time the Empress Dowager didn't even raise her eyebrows, but took a sip of tea, watching the tea leaves in the teacup slowly unwinding in the water, and reminded her leisurely: "Jade words, Your Majesty!"
The emperor twitched his mouth, it was over, he lost his wife and lost his troops!
After much deliberation, the emperor still refused to give up and wanted to struggle: "What about Zhaolin? The child can't live without her!" Zhaolin is the nickname of the eldest brother.
The Empress Dowager smiled and said: "It's okay. When I have free time, the Ai family will send Zhaolin to the Yangxin Palace and let Qiao Girl play with him for a while." It just so happens that you and your son can also cultivate their relationship.
The emperor thought for a while and then got down to business: "Zhaolin is almost two years old, and he should be restrained. He can no longer play all day long, lest he will be difficult to discipline in the future."
Unexpectedly, the Empress Dowager, who had been showing a Buddhist smile, suddenly gave a sharp look and put down the teacup heavily: "There is nothing to be restrained, he is still a child."
The Empress Dowager loved this child who had been raised by her side since her mother had died, so she had more considerations.
The eldest brother is the eldest son of the emperor. With a long character, he would have been a stumbling block in the eyes of many people. Moreover, his own mother was demoted for no reason, causing his mother's family to be suppressed everywhere. As for the sudden death of Lord Zhu, well, who would believe it? It's just the methods of the palace people.
In the future, if Zhaolin is proficient in all aspects of Wen Tao and martial arts, he will definitely become a thorn in everyone's side, and who will be able to protect him a hundred years from now?
Therefore, after several nights of tossing and turning, the Queen Mother made a decision. Zhaolin was determined not to inherit the throne in the future. The path he wanted to take was to be the best in the world, Batulu, to open up territories for the dynasty. , the god of war who protects the environment and the people.
