Chapter 289

"The Queen Mother, Lord Wang of the Ministry of Rites and other old ministers are asking to see you outside."

The queen mother was in the Buddha hall, and she couldn't help frowning when she heard the words, but she didn't even raise her eyelids and said:

"When mourning the Buddha, no one will see it."

When the maidservant heard this, her face hesitated, and she said resignedly:

"Queen Mother, Lord Wang said, if you don't see it, they will be outside our palace gate, and they can't afford to kneel."

The Buddha beads in the queen mother's hand stopped, and she was silent for a long time, and finally sighed and said:

"Can't afford to kneel? That's a surprise! Let's go, let's see. ”

Like Emperor Zhengcang when he was young, these pedantic ministers who abide by etiquette and obscurity are not used to looking down on the Empress Dowager Wen who is a foreign woman, even after Wen became the Empress Dowager, few of these ministers came to greet him, but he didn't expect that he could let the Empress Dowager see it completely today, many of them, the Empress Dowager has never even seen face-to-face.

The queen mother looked at the kneeling many old ministers, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but float a sneer, but she quickly disappeared, and just said lightly:

"What wind is blowing today? It's rare for all the adults to come to mourn here, why are they all kneeling here? Come on, why don't you help everyone get up! ”

It was still the elderly official of the Ministry of Rites, Lord Wang, who waved away the maidservant girl who was close to him, and said loudly to the Queen Mother:

"Queen Mother, you have to persuade the emperor, the royal driver is in person, you must not!"

"What did you say?" The Empress Dowager was immediately stunned when she heard this, looked up at the old ministers kneeling behind Lord Wang, and said:

"The Imperial Driver?"

Lord Wang immediately nodded and said:

"Yes, Queen Mother. The emperor heard that the war on the front line in the north was complicated, and he actually wanted to drive the expedition in person! Hui Qiang's ill-intentioned intentions this time, if the emperor goes to the north, there will be a good one. But what a good thing it is! ”

"Yes, Lord Wang is right."

"A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, let alone the king of a country?"

"That's right, it's absolutely impossible to do it!"

……

As soon as the courtiers' chatterbox opened, they chatted endlessly.

The Empress Dowager and Emperor Zhengcang are worthy of being the mother and son who have come through hardships together, and they are also impatient when they hear this, although the Empress Dowager is already old. But the flickering light in those eyes, under closer inspection, is the same as Emperor Zhengcang's court today.

Listened to it for a long time. The Queen Mother almost understood what the ministers said.

However, this matter of the royal driver's personal conquest is placed before the queen mother has not seen the news that her hard-working child is still alive. I heard that Emperor Zhengcang was going to drive his own expedition to the front line in the north. Definitely, it will be opposed.

But now, the Queen Mother is not much surprised.

Because the Empress Dowager understood the reason for Emperor Zhengcang's decision, she went to the north to resist the invasion of Huiqiang, and secondly, she was another son of the Empress Dowager and the twin brother of Emperor Zhengcang's mother.

Although the Queen Mother still doesn't know the details inside, but. But he understands that whether it is the rebellion of the Three Kings sixteen years ago or the dangerous situation of the Xining Dynasty now. are all closely related to their own outcasts.

Those ministers saw that the queen mother fell silent without saying a word after their words fell, and their expressions were faint and they didn't know what they were thinking, they couldn't help but look at me, I looked at you.

is still that Lord Wang, who is a little afraid of the prestige that Emperor Zhengcang has built up over the years, but in the face of the Queen Mother, he doesn't care much, and he still only thinks that the Queen Mother is the neglected foreign dancer Wen who was neglected back then.

So Lord Wang spoke:

"Queen Mother, the emperor has always respected you very much, your words will definitely be listened to by the emperor, you have to persuade the emperor to personally conquest, don't do it!"

The Queen Mother's eyes blinked slightly when she heard this, and she said:

"Lord Wang's words are different, the mourning family has lived in the deep palace for a long time, and they have long not asked about the government, not to mention that the mourning family understands the emperor's temperament, but whatever he decides, there must be no room for change, everyone, please go back, this busy, mourning family, I'm afraid I can only do nothing."

All the old ministers couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this, the current situation was completely different from what they had predicted before they came here, the queen mother heard that the emperor was going to drive the imperial expedition, although she was surprised, but it seemed to be a little strange, and she was not in a hurry at all.

But I don't want the queen mother to take Emperor Zhengcang at that time alone in this palace, and the mother and son have long been of the same mind. In any case, the Queen Mother will not openly disagree with her son.

What's more, the Queen Mother knew that if it was herself, she would definitely want to go to the north, but unfortunately, she couldn't go.

Seeing that the queen mother could not move, the adults couldn't help but start to look anxious, and whispered to each other to find the next way.

In this palace, if there is anyone who can say that in addition to the words of the queen mother, there is only that Song Guifei Niangniang.

They each looked at each other, and Lord Wang took the lead, bowed to the queen mother, and without even bending her waist, she said:

"The old minister never expected that the queen mother would not interfere with such a ridiculous act of the emperor at all, and she did not even oppose it, which really chilled our old ministers."

After speaking, Lord Wang led a group of royal relatives to turn around and leave, but he didn't want the cold voice of the Queen Mother to come from behind him:

"Lord Wang, my lords, who are you going to find, the mourning family doesn't want to ask, but the mourning family still wants to advise all the adults, this person, when you are old, you have to serve the old, don't be self-righteous, don't forget, the emperor of the mourning family, but the son of heaven."

When Lord Wang heard this, his steps suddenly stopped, his heart tightened, and he hurriedly turned around to look behind him, but when he saw that the Queen Mother had already left and walked away, he gritted his teeth fiercely and said:

"It's just that I became the queen mother when I was in a hurry, and I really didn't take us seriously!"

When the other old ministers around Lord Wang heard this, they hurriedly looked left and right, and when they saw that no one heard this, they breathed a sigh of relief and said to Lord Wang:

"Lord Wang, you can't say this."

Lord Wang just snorted when he heard this, then turned around again and walked towards Concubine Song's palace. Seeing this, the other ministers behind him had two or three excuses to run away, but the rest still couldn't see the situation clearly and followed Lord Wang and walked towards Song Guifei's residence.

However, around these old ministers, there are many people who are secretly observing in the shadows, each of them is their master, and one of them is exactly the person these ministers will see next - Song Guifei.

But I didn't want to, after their ministers left, the queen mother stood at the door of her bedroom again, watching those old ministers who didn't know what to do and walking towards Song Guifei's residence, couldn't help but squint her eyes, and said coldly:

"Let's go, go to the emperor."

Emperor Zhengcang has been staying in the imperial study since he left the court, and at this moment, he listened to the report from his henchmen and secret guards, and sent those old ministers to the mother's harem to persuade them unsuccessfully and diverted to the palace of Song Guifei, and couldn't help sneering:

"This play, it's time to come out on stage, I want to see what song you sing!" (To be continued.) )

PS: Song Guifei is going to play!!!
