"You...... Presumptuous, it's obvious that you dog slaves didn't take care of Your Majesty, and now that you're good, you've put all the blame on the mourning family. ”

Under the plain clothes, under the clenched fists of the Empress Dowager Li, the knuckles were white, and the words she said were squeezed out of her teeth word by word.

Shangguan Candle always had a calm face, but his eyebrows were raised, and there was a faint color in his eyes.

"The Queen Mother is serious, the slave is just stating a fact, but now that His Majesty is infected with the plague, it is not the time to be held responsible, the slave came over, just to tell His Majesty the current situation, so that you can have a general situation in your heart."

"Of course, it's not impossible for Niangniang to hold the slaves accountable now, but if the ministers know that Your Majesty was infected with the plague because the Empress Dowager went out of the palace to sympathize with the people, I don't know what they will think of this matter?"

The situation of the ministers in the court, Empress Dowager Li and Shangguan Candle are well aware, although the ministers who supported Empress Dowager Li accounted for the majority in the past, but since Feng Xiyan ascended the throne, the situation in the court and China has changed, and the royalist faction and the empress dowager faction slowly began to divide into two major factions.

In the DPRK and China, there is a situation where water and fire are incompatible, although each other is constantly making small moves in private, but on the surface, they still get along in harmony, of course, these are only on the surface, once the situation has a new change, the balance of all this will be immediately broken, and then a chaotic situation will be created.

And as Feng Xiyan became more and more out of the control of Empress Dowager Li, many clear-eyed ministers began to take refuge in the royalists, of course, there are many of them who have Shangguan Candle's scheme.

The reason why Shangguan Candle directly threw out the bait as soon as he came was to make Empress Dowager Li take it lightly, so that he could impose the matter of Feng Xiyan being infected with the plague on the Empress Dowager, and then use the pressure of the ministers to make the Empress Dowager unable to make any moves at this time.

Of course, this also has an element of gambling, so it depends on whether Empress Dowager Li is fooled.

"What? Are you trying to use courtiers to put pressure on the mourners? ”

The meaning of Shangguan Candle's words was that Empress Dowager Li quickly understood, but it was one thing to understand it, and it was another thing to do it.

"The minions don't dare, just analyze the pros and cons of this matter to the Queen Mother, Your Majesty has such a big thing, even if you kill all the minions, it will not help, and you will fall into a desperate situation."

Shangguan Candle looked at Empress Dowager Li calmly.

"Now the court is in turmoil, Your Majesty is still young and doesn't understand anything, everything depends on the Queen Mother, you alone, many ministers in the court have long had objections, if something happens to Your Majesty, everyone will turn their attention to you, plus this time Your Majesty sneaked out of the palace because of you, and the ministers knew about it, and they would definitely make a big fuss about it."

"Presumptuous, are you still afraid that a few ministers will not succeed?"

Under Shangguan Candle's purposeful admonition, Empress Dowager Li's anger has gradually calmed down, but she is still hard-hearted and unwilling to let go of this opportunity.

"How can the Queen Mother be afraid of them, it's just that you are the Queen Mother, if you offend them severely, although you can kill them all, but they are all civil officials, and when the time comes, rumors that are unfavorable to you will outweigh the losses."

Shangguan Candle said slowly, with a pair of eyes, ink flowing, and continued to look at Empress Dowager Li quietly.

Hearing this, the corners of Empress Dowager Li's forehead jumped fiercely, although she knew that what Shangguan Candle said was not bad at all, but the taste of being led by the nose was really extremely uncomfortable.

She looked at Shangguan Candle coldly, thinking thoughtfully, even if she can't clean up the emperor this time, it's okay to clean up a eunuch with you, anyway, there must be someone to vent the anger in her heart.

Empress Dowager Li raised her hand to signal the palace maid standing beside her with her head bowed respectfully, and then returned to the main seat with their support, and after the palace maid continued to pinch her forehead, she slowly raised her eyes to look at Shangguan Candle standing quietly below.

"Okay, even if your analysis is very reasonable, but Your Majesty is out of the palace, don't you want to be able to frame the mourning family with your tongue, Your Majesty sneaked out of the palace, it was you dog slaves who didn't take a good look at him, even if you don't see it well, you should come to the mourning family in time, instead of letting him slip out, which will cause today's disaster."

Shangguan Zhu sneered in his heart, and suddenly felt that Empress Dowager Li was really a mad dog, even if she couldn't get the biggest meat and bone from this matter, she would bite off a piece of meat.

Suddenly felt that it was just a waste of time to continue talking nonsense with her here, so he bowed slightly, lowered his eyes, and said coldly.

"The Queen Mother wants to punish the slave, and the slave is willing to ask for the crime, but the slave also said it just now, especially when His Majesty has just had an accident, once the mother has a trouble, it will definitely attract the attention of the ministers, and when the time comes, it will also cause trouble."

"The slave suggested that Niangniang could write it down for the minions for the time being, and when His Majesty recovered, when this turmoil passed, you could punish the minions as much as you wanted."

I can't beat it, I can't scold it, I can't scold it, Empress Dowager Li is holding back the anger in her heart, this Shangguan Candle is used to hitting snakes and hitting seven inches, and as soon as she exits, she grabs her lifeline, making her unable to move, so she has to let his words go.

Empress Dowager Li looked at Shangguan Candle below with an extremely ugly face, and after a long time, she spoke extremely unwillingly.

"Okay, remember what you said today, and as soon as Your Majesty recovers, the mourning family will definitely punish you well."

"Yes, so, the minions retreat."

In the angry eyes of the Empress Dowager Li, Shangguan Candle turned around and left with an expressionless face, leaving the Empress Dowager Li in the palace to grit her silver teeth.

"Damn dog slave, the mourning family has never been treated like this, wait for the mourning family, one day, the mourning family will definitely break you and your master into pieces...... Yes....... ”

Empress Dowager Li looked at Shangguan Candle's distant back, gritted her teeth and scolded behind his back, but before she finished speaking, she was pressed hard by the palace maid who pinched the corners of her forehead, causing her to exclaim.

"The Queen Mother spares her life, and the Queen Mother spares her ......life."

The blood on the face of the palace maid who knew that she had committed a capital crime faded, leaving a pale face, trembling and kneeling quickly at the feet of the Empress Dowager Li, begging for mercy again and again.

"Smack." Empress Dowager Li slammed her eyes fiercely and slapped the palace maid's face hard.

", it's hurting the mourning family."

"The Queen Mother forgives her sins...... The slave didn't dare anymore...... Ask the mother to forgive the slave and maid for ...... this time. ”

"Come on, bring it down."

It's a pity that before the palace maid's words of begging for mercy were finished, she was dragged down by the people on the side of the Empress Dowager Li.
