After leaving Fengluan Palace, the aggrieved expression on Cheng Ning's face was relieved, and she said quietly: "Put me down."
Chunhua on the side couldn't help but tremble with fear.
Her mother-in-law was so furious that she almost said in front of His Majesty: "I was just pretending."
With His Majesty's temperament, he is bound to be angry.
Sure enough, as soon as Cheng Ning finished speaking, Wei Yanzhou's hand loosened and she fell down.
I was caught off guard and fell into the snow, but it was enough to hurt for a while.
Cheng Ning choked on the cold wind and couldn't help coughing for a while.
"A show?" Wei Yanzhou knelt down and pinched Cheng Ning's chin, forcing her to look up at him: "I thought I was enlightened today. Sister Ning, you really won't disappoint me."
Cheng Ning knew that if she followed him, her life would probably be much easier.
But she had the energy in her heart to forget it in front of the queen.
If you still smile at Wei Yanzhou before leaving, it will be like giving in to the matter of treason.
She changed from sitting to kneeling and drove people away: "Your Majesty must be busy with government affairs, Cheng Ning does not dare to delay."
But in the final analysis, Wei Yanzhou just scolded the queen for being so bullying.
Compared to what she suffered a few days ago, it was nothing worth mentioning.
She and the queen clashed back and forth, and as long as she refused to give in, Wei Yanzhou would either make her kneel down or make her copy scriptures.
His temperament could not tolerate any disobedience from her.
But Cheng Ning is proud after all, and she doesn't have so much softness to win over.
His bones carry the hardness of being a general of the Cheng family for generations.
The person at his feet was kneeling, his red-hot hands resting on the snow, which was vaguely blistered.
This spine is so hard!
Wei Yanzhou was so angry that he sneered: "I came to the court thinking that my beloved concubine would be interested in the affairs of the previous court, or did I guess wrong again?"
Cheng Ning's eyelashes trembled.
Previous dynasty?
Of course she was more interested in the affairs of the former dynasty than the harem.
The foundation of the new emperor's ascension to the throne is unstable, and turmoil in the court is inevitable. Wei Yanzhou... is only twenty-three years old no matter what.
His methods are tough and cold. Which old man in the court would be like this?
After all, this was Jinyang that she had guarded for most of her life, and she certainly didn't want to see successive changes.
"How was the previous one...?"
Wei Yanzhou's eyes were slightly crescent-shaped: "Are you interested? Unfortunately, I don't want to say anything anymore."
He said, stood up and left.
A bad temper can't bear to be angry at all.
Cheng Ning didn't want to miss it. She was trapped in the harem for two months and could only get a few words from Meng Xin.
That wasn't enough, there were too many things that she couldn't let go of.
He braced himself to stand up and chase after him, but just as he knelt down, he collapsed and fell into the snow.
The palm of the hand was even poked with dead branches and made a bloody hole.
"Empress!" Chunhua was shocked: "How are you?"
The bright yellow figure in front paused, turned around and saw this, his face was filled with anger, and he picked him up.
"After going through so much trouble last night, you still have to show off, and you are satisfied with being injured like this? Come here, Xuan Mengxin!"
If he was sarcastic at first and had some contention in his anger, now he is really angry.
Cheng Ning was indeed in pain and was too lazy to struggle.
Meng Xin went to Linhua Palace twice in one day. He was frightened, thinking that Cheng Ning had been punished severely again.
After looking at the injury and applying medicine, she sighed softly: "Your Majesty, I must not touch your hands again in the past few days. I'm afraid it will hurt even if she holds the chopsticks back."
Meng Xin actually didn't dare to say these words.
But eight days ago, Cheng Ning's leg was just right for the punishment. Now it was the hand's turn. Cheng Ning would not say anything about the pain unless she said it.
Sooner or later you will have to risk your life.
"Get out." Wei Yanzhou's face didn't look good.
Meng Xin hurriedly left. Before leaving, he exchanged a look with Cheng Ning and asked her not to annoy Wei Yanzhou again.
"What happened in the previous dynasty?"
Wei Yanzhou seemed still angry: "With such concern, have you forgotten your current identity?"
Cheng Ning did not forget that the harem did not interfere in politics.
But there were some things she had to say.
"You just ascended the throne, my father and brother were imprisoned, and the imperial family has become seriously ill. They will not let you handle the government affairs with your temper."
Jinyang's external troubles have now been eliminated, but its internal worries remain unresolved.
The late emperor had been in power for many years, and the bureaucrats who led the aristocratic families were almost like moths, eating away at this weak pillar.
She heard from Meng Xin that Wei Yanzhou ignored him and ordered a thorough investigation into the relationships between several aristocratic families.
But he helped the Xie family to ascend to the throne.
The Xie family and the aristocratic family are inextricably linked. They are both worms, but he treats them both differently and makes Xie Nianyao his queen.
It seems that from the outside, Wei Yanzhou doesn't hesitate to be confused for the sake of beauty.
No one could guess his thoughts, they just thought he was young and foolish.
"Are Sister Ning worried about me?" Wei Yanzhou leaned over slightly and buried himself tenderly in her neck: "It's so rare."
"Xie Nianyao is not suitable to be a queen at all. With her temperament, your harem will be full in the future. Her jealous temper will only cause trouble."
She didn't say this because she couldn't deal with Xie Nianyao, but because Xie Nianyao was not suitable to be her queen.
She is narrow-minded and has a short temper.
With her around, no matter who gets favored, they will be in chaos.
When you are a queen, you should not only support but also help.
Wei Yanzhou put his arm around her waist, which was so small that it was only wide enough for his palm to hold her in his arms, but it was extremely comforting.
He spoke slowly: "Then destroy her, okay?"
This question was too flippant, as if he didn't care who was behind him.
Cheng Ning became angry for no reason: "Are you treating the position of queen so carelessly?"
"If you don't like it, I will destroy her." Wei Yanzhou chuckled: "You are not satisfied with following your wishes?"
What does it feel like to be punched in cotton?
That's it.
Cheng Ning pushed him: "Let go. If you don't want to say these things, then go criticize him."
If you don't have enough oil and salt, you seem to be really stupid.
"I'm angry again." Wei Yanzhou leaned against the bedpost and looked at Cheng Ning through the heavy curtains: "Do you think I'm three years old and can't see clearly the situation in the DPRK?"
Cheng Ning was annoyed: "When you were three years old, you read the Art of War with a runny nose. You are more reliable than now."
One sentence made Wei Yanzhou Mu's face darken again.
He gritted his teeth and accepted the fact that Cheng Ning had never considered him reliable.
He stood up to leave: "Since I'm not asking you to depose the queen, I'd better worry less about it, my beloved concubine."
Cheng Ning turned over, leaving her back to him.
"Oh yes, I remembered what I wanted to tell you. I didn't want to agree at first, but the emperor knelt down and begged."
Cheng Ning opened her eyelashes.
"I gave him a palace. It's not suitable for him to live in the palace. He should move out tomorrow, but he wants to see you."
As he spoke, Wei Yanzhou clicked his tongue: "What do you think his expression would be like when he sees that we are so inseparable?"
