Just as Dong Hou, the former prince of the Han Dynasty, was being taken away, the Queen Mother's palace on the other side was also brightly lit.
The Empress Dowager He of the Han Dynasty is also anxiously waiting for some news.
In today's palace, the Queen Mother He has really gotten along.
If nothing else, he can at least be in charge of the harem, and he has great power.
At least no one dared to disobey his orders.
Of course, in private... There is nothing private about Queen Mother He's abilities.
But now the infinitely beautiful Queen Mother He is still pacing back and forth in her palace.
Whenever an attendant from his palace came back, the Queen Mother He couldn't help but look expectantly at the person coming.
It's just a pity that what she sees every time is not what he wants, and every time she sees it, she just shakes her head helplessly.
As they shook their heads again and again, the mood of the empress dowager He was naturally getting worse and worse.
The reason why her mood has deteriorated is naturally very simple, that is, in the harem now, the Marquis Dong who cannot die no matter what!
The Empress Dowager He is indeed extremely prosperous now. If nothing else, at least he has accomplished almost everything she wanted to accomplish.
But now she only has this last bit of worry left in her heart.
And the thing that made him uneasy was the former Dong Hou, the guy who was rumored to be a threat to his son!
This palace is the most strict place, but there are no secrets in this palace.
Just like when He killed Miss Wang, no evidence was left behind, but the palace still passed on the matter as it was.
And it had a nose and eyes, leaving him speechless.
And the same is true for today's Donghou.
Although they tried their best to hide the bad thing between Liu Hong and that damn troublemaker, they still didn't know how to spread it.
When the He family knew that Liu Xie almost became the emperor, he replaced his son and the He family!
When she thinks of this, Queen Mother He will not be able to sleep and will feel uncomfortable all over.
So...he had to resolve this matter.
And Liu Xie has become a close trouble for him, and what Queen Mother He has to do now is to completely eliminate the trouble.
She didn't know what the late emperor had said to the military captain, and Queen Mother He didn't know whether the things circulating in the palace were true or false.
She didn't intend to know about these messy things!
Queen Mother He is indeed not smart, but Queen Mother He behaves in her own way.
Just like how he treated Wang Meiren back then.
Why is Beauty Wang so important?
Nature is unimportant.
But if Wang Meiren is dead, then there will be no problem!
As the saying goes, killing cannot solve any problem, but killing can solve the person who caused the problem.
Without the source of the problem, there will naturally be no problem.
As for whether she will have the same problem as Miss Wang in the future, it has never been a problem for her!
And it's the same now. Queen Mother He doesn't know many things in it.
But Queen Mother He knew that only when that boy died could she truly settle down, and his son would also truly settle down.
Otherwise...seeing that boy living well would make her sleep uneasy.
But this matter has reached the final stage. It has already reached this stage. Why can't she catch that boy?
Queen Mother He knew that even if Liu Xie was not the emperor, he was still the former prince.
I don’t know how many people protected him overtly or covertly.
So he was waiting for the opportunity to kill the people and forces around Liu Xie bit by bit!
But Empress Dowager He still can't understand why she hasn't found that boy yet, even though she has seen Se Shuo die, Dong Zhong die, and even the Empress Dowager die, who is it? Are you protecting him?
Why would anyone in this palace protect him?
The anger in Queen Mother He's heart was getting stronger and stronger. The worries she had received and the rumors she had heard over the years seemed to have all appeared in her mind. The Dong family wanted to abolish the eldest son and establish a younger one, and Miss Wang asked for her life at night. Even the late emperor had this kind of mentality.
After so many years, we have obviously won, so why do we still have such a trouble?
Until night fell, another little Huangmen finally came hurriedly to Queen Mother He and whispered in her ear.
This was the little Huangmen who was looking for Liu Xie. When he returned, the Empress Dowager He was naturally overjoyed.
But when he got closer, looking at the look on Xiao Huangmen's face... Queen Mother He suddenly felt something inappropriate.
Sure enough, with the words of the little Huangmen, Queen Mother He's face kept changing, surprised, shocked, puzzled, and even a little embarrassed.
"Are you telling the truth?"
"Everything I say is true, and I would never dare to deceive the Queen Mother."
".....Walk!"
Empress Dowager He snorted one last time and asked everyone to follow her.
"Queen Mother, do you want to summon the Imperial Army?"
"Nonsense, if the imperial army goes there, how will we explain to the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty tomorrow!"
Empress Dowager He scolded the little Huangmen and shut her mouth in embarrassment. Immediately after, Empress Dowager He took the maids in the palace and left the palace and walked in a certain direction.
At this time, the other main hall in the palace, although not magnificent, was still majestic and majestic, even a bedroom was quite majestic.
And Liu Xie, the child that Queen Mother He had been looking for, was eating cakes here.
That elegant and tranquil look made Liu Bian feel a little shocked at this time, and he even didn't know what to say.
Liu Bian knew very well what the little guy looked like when he took him away.
Not to mention that if he was a little late, it would be a disaster, and not to mention the extremely miserable look he looked when he saw him.
Just this period of time is enough for this little guy.
The people in this palace are very realistic, which Liu Bian can also see, since the Empress Dowager has completely lost hope.
The people in this palace's treatment of Dong Hou is not as simple as whether they care about him or not.
That would definitely be very unkind.
Even if you haven't seen it with your own eyes, you can imagine it.
The younger brother was obviously tired and hungry at first, but when he saw himself, he even thought of relief.
But when he calmed down, he realized that he was not here to kill him.
This half-brother actually changed his appearance again. He ate very politely just when he was eating.
Not to mention anything else, the young man who was several years older than him in front of him was ashamed of his gentle and elegant eating appearance.
After all, Liu Bian has been in the Taoist temple since he was a child, followed by either free and easy Taoist priests or even more free and easy heroic swordsmen!
In addition, their Taoist emphasis is on being free and natural. He has not been subject to any etiquette restrictions since he was a child, and he can't even see anyone in the Taoist temple all year round.
Even if he is full of etiquette...then who should he show it to?
At this time, Liu Bian looked at Liu Xie who was eating and drinking. Liu Bian, who was also a young man, couldn't help but smile, and seemed a little happy.
Perhaps he saw another kind of life in him that he had never experienced before.
However, this life does not seem to be so beautiful.
And... the only thing he can do now is to obey his father's words, adhere to the rules of brotherhood, friendship and respect, and treat his half-brother well.
But this good time is always short-lived.
When Liu Bian heard the noise outside and saw the panic in Liu Xie's eyes again, his face became a little more serious.
"Don't worry, eat well, no one can take you away."
After the young man finished speaking, he gently stroked Liu Xie's head, then turned and left, standing at the door of the dormitory, blocking the way of the visitor.
The person rushing to the forefront at this time was the actual owner of the palace, the Empress Dowager He of the Han Dynasty.
But when she saw the young man standing in front of her, the anger on He's face slowly calmed down, and she just took a deep breath.
"Bian'er, don't mess around. Just get out of the way, for mother's sake..."
"It's late at night, mother, please rest early." Liu Bian rarely interrupted his mother's words, and his steps showed no intention of giving in at this time.
Seeing Liu Bian like this, Queen Mother He also frowned and seemed to understand what he meant, but Queen Mother He didn't intend to give up just like that.
"It's late at night. Your Majesty should have a good rest. What should you do if you stand here and catch the wind? If you haven't sent Your Majesty away yet, why are you standing here stupidly?"
Empress Dowager He gave the order, and the maids behind her immediately rushed forward, seeming to want to force Liu Bian away.
But as soon as they made a move, Liu Bian's hand that had been hidden behind his back immediately flung out. Along with that hand, there was an unsheathed long sword.
"Did the Queen Mother forget that in addition to learning martial arts from Daozhang Shi, I also learned good swordsmanship from my master? These people around the Queen Mother may not be my opponents."
At this moment, the person in front of Queen Mother He was no longer a little emperor, but his son.
At this time, Liu Bian truly became the emperor of the Han Dynasty!
At that moment, Liu Bian seemed to have an imperial aura that belonged to the Han emperor.
That kind of dominance made everyone present unable to help but lose consciousness for a moment.
It even made them feel like they were doing something heinous.
But this feeling only lasted for a moment, at least... In the eyes of the Queen Mother He, this so-called imperial domineering power was just a child's helplessness.
