In the Qianyuan Palace, the emperor took a look at the excerpt of the performance, and immediately became furious, threw the excerpt to the ground, looked at the official who presented the excerpt, and couldn't stop being angry.

"What do you mean it's gone? My territory of Da Yan will actually put hordes of Tartars in, how do you all guard Yanzhou? My sons can be robbed in their own places, do you have to wait until the Tartars touch into the palace to take my life, you can find out?"

The emperor's words were like thunder, and the courtiers of the first hall were so frightened that they all knelt on the ground, and said the word "forgiveness" in their mouths.

The emperor was very angry, and immediately scolded several governors of Yanzhou and Youzhou, and ordered the three princes to be found within three days.

After the emperor scolded a group of ministers, he got up and entered the inner hall, shook his head lightly at a beautiful statue, his cold eyes were full of anger, and he said in a low voice: "It's my negligence, I didn't expect them to be so bold, it's okay, take this opportunity to clean up Yanzhou and Youzhou, they think that I am an ornament, they can do whatever they want!"

As he spoke, he shouted, "Wei Xin!"

Immediately, a man dressed in black appeared and knelt at the emperor's feet.

The emperor said in a deep voice: "You go to Yanzhou, secretly check this matter, if you find the third child, whether you live or die, you will bring it back to me!"

"The slave takes the order!" he said, and retreated.

The emperor's eyes shone with a deep light, and his expression when he looked at the beauty was full of inexplicable gloom.

……

Ci'an Palace, the foreign women arrived one after another.

Mrs. Xia and Xie had just arrived at Ci'an Palace, and greeted the palace people who led them with a smile and asked a few questions, "...... Which lady has arrived, has the queen mother ever had breakfast......" and so on, the palace people answered one by one with a smile, and they were all the wives of some noble families, and said that the queen mother was still having breakfast, and they waited outside like a stream, and just entered the second room, they saw the old lady of the Xie family with the third lady also arrived.

The two families greeted each other affectionately and chatted, the two families were in-laws, and there was the matter of Chanyi behind, both of them were prosperous, although the death of Mrs. Gu was not easy to mention in the palace, but when it came to the children's family affairs, there were always some endless words.

But it made others look a little hot, Mrs. Wei of Anbei Houfu looked at the two families so close, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but pick out a sarcastic smile, and whispered to the princess of Guangning next to her: "Some people just pretend to be sanctimonious all day long, but pity my nephew and daughter-in-law, it's so ......."

Mrs. Wei heard that her mother-in-law suddenly talked about Chang's affairs, and her eyes widened quickly, this is Ci'an Palace, how could her mother-in-law be so confused!

Princess Guangning was frightened by Mrs. Wei's words, and she didn't know how to answer this sentence, so she hurriedly wiped her eyes with a handkerchief and said: "You mourn, be careful of your body, listen to Ning Guogong's explanation of the funeral, you can't be an aunt who is sick at this juncture." ”

Mrs. Wei nodded, her eyes were red, "Don't worry, I know, my nephew and daughter-in-law's death is not clear, I just don't use it anymore, and I can't watch others bully them like this!"

Mrs. Wei hurriedly stepped forward to support Mrs. Wei, but she didn't dare to let her talk any more, and talked about other things with Princess Guangning.

There are only a few people in the second room, no matter how light Mrs. Wei's words are, they are not airtight, listening to Mrs. Xia's ears, she can't stop laughing, could it be that Duchess Ning Guo or the Xia family forced her to die?

Old Madam Xia snorted coldly and said, "People, you still have to stand upright, otherwise you won't even be able to look past God." ”

Old Mrs. Xia didn't even look at Mrs. Wei, such a person's heart and eyes are so rotten that she can come up with such a black-hearted and rotten idea to force the little lady who has been raised by others for more than ten years, if it weren't for being in Ci'an Palace, with her temperament, she would have been unable to reason with this old pious woman, where would she have to reverse right and wrong here.

Xie Shi listened to Mrs. Xia's words by his side, and nodded, "What Mother said is that each family has its own way of living, let's take care of ourselves, you just love to worry, illness is good, or take care more." Although it is not appropriate to fight in the palace, if someone wants to bully the head and ignore it, it will be a bit too cowardly.

Mrs. Xie also smiled when she heard this, and didn't pay attention to Mrs. Wei's words, there have been too many rights and wrongs in the court over the years, and the emperor is obviously using the Xia family's affairs to take care of the family's power, Mrs. Wei, as Ning Guogong's aunt, naturally doesn't want to see the rights in Ning Guogong's hands withdrawn, but she doesn't want to return to it, the Wei family can't handle the emperor, so they come to take care of the Xia family, which is really interesting enough.

Mrs. Wei listened to their salty and non-salty words, and her heart rose in anger, and she was about to release it, but she was dragged by the princess of Guangning, pinched the handkerchief of her youth, and reminded her that this was Ci'an Palace, and Mrs. Wei restrained her anger.

After waiting for a while, everyone came, and the female official smiled and led them into the main hall, and the Empress Dowager Zhu had already eaten breakfast and sat on the right seat of Ci'an Palace.

The foreign women knelt on the ground and saluted in an orderly manner, kowtowed, and sang respectfully in their mouths: "Courtiers see the Queen Mother, may the Mother be blessed and healthy!"

"Get up!" Empress Dowager Zhu raised her eyebrows, her calm voice was more like her, as the empress of Emperor Wuzong's main palace, she was not favored for many years, but she was calm and introverted for ten years, which should not be underestimated, and finally let her get out of the way, her own son became the emperor, no matter what sacrifice her people made, from the day Emperor Wenzong ascended the throne, it was worth it.

Empress Dowager Zhu instructed the palace maid to give the seat, and the foreign women thanked her again, before sitting on the stool and listening to the questions of the queen mother's family one by one.

"If the mourning family remembers well, is it called Sister Chan'er? I don't know if her injury is healed? A few days ago, the emperor just got some good purple ginseng and sent some to the mourning family, and it just so happened that you brought it back to her and let her recuperate. ”

The female officer immediately went to fetch it, apparently prepared it a long time ago, and handed it to the Xie family.

Xie Shi hurriedly got up to thank him, but he was very surprised that the queen mother would love the second lady of the Xia family so much, which was a little incredible.

The Queen Mother smiled and asked a few more words, changed her head, and asked Mrs. Xie, "I heard Concubine Zhuang say that the child is going to enter this year? ”

Mrs. Xie said with a smile: "It's not okay to have inkstone without ink, no matter how you say it, you have to reward a few more pieces of good ink to tell him, this is the queen mother's reward, if you bastard boy don't take the test well, look at those good inkstones and good ink, and all of them will fly." ”

The Queen Mother smiled when she heard this: "I know that you are a goose plucker, so I will rely on you and add a few more pieces of pine smoke ink." ”

The people in the first hall also laughed, because the Queen Mother and Mrs. Xie were sisters, and only the two of them dared to joke so carelessly.

After the Queen Mother finished talking to the Xie family, she went to other people's homes, and they all skipped after asking a few words, until the end, they turned to the Wei family, the Queen Mother's smiling eyebrows and eyes converged, looked at Mrs. Wei and Mrs. Wei, and said in a deep voice: "I heard others talk about your family before, and the mourning family has been reluctant to ask more.

Under the New Year, the Queen Mother turned this kind of thing out and said, Mrs. Wei's face changed, and she hurriedly defended: "They are careless in making friends, so they will be set up, this matter earlier, Hou Ye has already reprimanded Gong Jin, and even alarmed you, it's really ......"

The Queen Mother flicked her hand and interrupted her defense: "Our noble of Dayan, which family is not the work of the ancestors, think about how Ning Guogong and An Beihou helped Emperor Taizong lay the foundation of the country, and then look back at your descendants, as the sons of nobles, you must always remember your ancestors......"

The Queen Mother suddenly reprimanded, causing the entire hall to fall into a depression, and Mrs. Wei and Mrs. Wei staggered to their knees, not daring to defend themselves.

The Queen Mother chattered endlessly counting the Ningguo Mansion several generations ago, and the rise and fall of it was even better than Mrs. Wei, the daughter from the Gu family, which surprised Mrs. Wei.

“…… Why do we Dayan reuse the noble children, isn't it just relying on the merits of the ancestors, although no one will ask you to be as capable as your ancestors and help assist the Great Yan country, but what you do must be worthy of the ancestral foundation is ......"

At the end of the Queen Mother, she asked again: "Do you remember?"

Mrs. Wei and Mrs. Wei nodded again and again, not daring to say a word, and hurriedly said: "The courtiers remember the teachings of the Queen Mother!"

The Queen Mother nodded, "I won't say more, it's not early, it's about to snow, it's not easy to walk on the road, and it's even more difficult to walk when it's late, and the mourning family won't leave you!"

The Queen Mother only left a few close families to have lunch, and the rest were dispersed, Mrs. Wei held Mrs. Wei's hand, but the anger in her heart was burning more and more, and she entered the palace in the New Year, she never thought that she would touch such a moldy head, in previous years, they were left to eat in the palace, this year the queen was grounded, their family was not only the last one to be asked, and the opening was reprimanded, but not to see who was helping Dayan guard the northwest!

Mrs. Wei also had anger in her heart, but she couldn't show it, so she had to help Mrs. Wei out of the palace.

However, the few families who stayed in Ci'an Palace were talking and laughing, and eating lunch lively.

Until a small chamberlain beside the emperor hurriedly came, and whispered in the queen mother's ear: "The third prince was robbed by the Tartars in Yanzhou, and the emperor was furious and investigated the matter thoroughly......"

The Queen Mother's face changed, looking at the little waiter, speechless for a long time, Mrs. Xie was close, and she also listened to her throat, her brows frowned, the Queen Mother was in no mood to laugh, and everyone naturally ate a few mouthfuls of lunch in a hurry like chewing wax, and then reluctantly said a few words, and said goodbye to the Queen Mother and went home.
