Zhao Dongting hurried outside the palace gate with Yunjing.
Because the whereabouts of Empress Dowager Xie and others needed to be kept secret, the imperial court did not go to the city to greet them with great fanfare.
When Zhao Dongting and Yunjing arrived at the gate of the palace, Su Quandang's more than 1,000 guards were lined up neatly on the street outside the palace gate.
Su Quandang wore silver armor and stood in front of the army with a spear in his hand.
Behind him, there were more than a dozen chariots.
Seeing Zhao Dongting appear with Yunjing, Su Quandang's eyes showed a faint look of excitement, and he hurriedly dismounted and knelt down on one knee and said, "The last general, Su Quandang, will knock to see the emperor." ”
Since becoming the marshal of the Zhenbei Military Region, he and Zhao Dongting have fewer opportunities to meet.
The two are both monarchs and friends, and they are inevitably a little excited.
"Hurry up."
Zhao Dongting also had a smile on his face, "I haven't seen you for another year, but you guy is getting stronger and stronger." ”
Su Quan sneered, "If you eat well and dress well in the army, the last general is a blessing to the emperor." ”
Behind him, the chariot curtains were opened.
Empress Dowager Xie, Empress Dowager Quan, and a number of former imperial relatives of the Great Song Dynasty all showed their faces.
None of them spoke, they all just looked at Zhao Dongting.
Zhao Dongting's eyes also swept over their faces.
Then he saluted to the Empress Dowager Xie and the Empress Dowager Quan in turn, and shouted: "The Empress Dowager...... Queen Mother ......"
Although he did not inherit Zhao Yu's skills, it was not difficult to recognize the oldest and most majestic Empress Dowager Xie. And those who can sit in the same chariot with the Empress Dowager Xie, I think there will be no one else except the Empress Dowager Quan.
"Hmm."
Empress Dowager Xie replied softly.
And the Queen Mother Quan, whose face was still tired, couldn't be so calm, and said with some resentment: "Xian'er has passed away, and this palace can no longer be regarded as the Queen Mother." ”
She undoubtedly hates Zhao Dongting the most in her heart.
Zhao Xian's death made her lose a lot of her mind, and this naturally made her have no intention of thinking about whether it would be someone else's hand, and only recognized Zhao Dongting as the initiator.
Zhao Dongting was slightly stunned. I didn't expect the Empress Dowager Quan to speak like this with a gun and a stick just now.
The thick resentment in those words can be felt by everyone around me.
Hearing that Xian'er had passed away, the guards around the palace changed color one after another.
Zhao Dongting had the heart to refute, but this was obviously not the place to speak, he frowned slightly, and only said: "Please invite the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager into the palace......
With that, he grabbed Su Quandang's hand and walked towards the palace.
He won't be too polite.
Because now he is the son of heaven of this Great Song Dynasty.
Zhao Dongting understands very well that the more humble he becomes, the more he will gain an inch of people like the Empress Dowager.
And he, in fact, doesn't really care about them.
If it weren't for the blood relationship, and he had to set an example for his subjects, he wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to Empress Dowager Xie and others.
Zhao Hao's treatment in the court was not very good.
Holding Su Quandang's hand can also be regarded as a demonstration. Since Zhao Dongting did it deliberately.
He was telling the Empress Dowager Xie and others that the current Great Song Dynasty was his Great Song Dynasty. Such as Su Quandang, these young generals are all his people.
This also made the eyes of the Empress Dowager Xie and others squint slightly.
They all keenly sensed Zhao Dongting's intentions.
"The Empress Dowager ......"
Empress Dowager Quan looked at Empress Dowager Xie aggrievedly, but she stopped her mouth in Empress Dowager Xie's cold eyes, and failed to say the following words.
Empress Dowager Xie stepped out of the car and said coldly: "Enter the palace!" ”
Zhao Xian's death and Zhao Dongting's attitude made them not as excited as they had expected to return to Changsha this time, let alone happy.
Everybody is on their minds.
And Zhao Dongting dragged Su Quandang and walked straight to Zhengde Gate, and he never had the intention of turning back.
He didn't want to face the resentful face of the Queen Mother.
To Zhengde Gate.
Yang Shufei, Ying'er, Zhang Ru, and Le Chan were already waiting in formal clothes.
Seeing that Zhao Dongting dragged Su Quandang to arrive first, he was slightly stunned, and then his eyes looked at the large group of people of the Empress Dowager Xie who was left behind.
Zhao Dongting said lightly to Concubine Yang Shu: "Queen Mother, Queen Mother, they are back." ”
Then he walked to Yang Shufei and stood next to her.
Su Quandang knelt on the ground, "The last general Su Quandang knocked to see the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, Concubine Jing, and Concubine De. ”
He knocked and shouted very loudly.
After shouting, he looked up at Zhao Dongting. Zhao Dongting winked at him.
Su Quandang, this guy is really clever.
Undoubtedly, Su Quandang also understood Zhao Dongting's meaning. This is deliberately showing off to Empress Dowager Xie and others.
He is saying that only the Queen Mother in front of him is the Queen Mother who he really recognizes in his heart.
This made the Empress Dowager's face even more difficult to look at, and she couldn't help but snort lightly.
The rest of the royal relatives were thoughtful.
These days on the way from Xinyang City to Changsha have had enough time for them to think about many issues.
In the past, the Great Song Dynasty was the Great Song of the Empress Dowager Xie, but now it seems that the Great Song Dynasty has already changed.
Zhao Dongting's prestige in the court was far beyond their expectations.
Although the young emperor in front of them was still young, he was so powerful that they were never able to overlap it with the weak Zhao Yu before.
The majesty on Zhao Dongting's body is enough to show that he is already a real king.
And such a king, will the Empress Dowager have a chance to govern?
Originally, the relatives of the emperor who were thinking about this matter and hoped that they were still eating and drinking spicy food and spicy food behind the Empress Dowager Xie had already lost the bottom of their hearts.
In such a situation, they also have to think about how they will stand in line in the future.
Concubine Yang Shu had lived under the rule of Empress Dowager Xie for so long before, even now, Empress Dowager Xie was afraid that there was still power in her heart, so she seemed much more humble and polite than Zhao Dongting, and even her eyes were a little red, and she hurriedly stepped forward and saluted Empress Dowager Xie and said, "Empress Dowager is auspicious." ”
shouted to the Empress Dowager again, "Sister." ”
All you can get is the cold snort of the Queen Mother.
This woman can't care about anything else. Now, she probably just wants to vent the anger in her heart.
Zhang Ru's daughters also stepped forward to give a salute.
The imperial relatives behind Empress Dowager Xie are still watching, and they have neither given a gift to Zhao Dongting, nor do they have any intention of giving a gift to Concubine Yang Shu now.
"Let's all be exempt!"
Empress Dowager Xie's voice was still cold, and her eyes only fell on Concubine Yang Shu's face, which meant inexplicable.
The atmosphere was suddenly awkward.
The guards and eunuchs on the side all knelt on the ground, so quiet that they could hear the needles dropping.
Zhao Dongting looked at Concubine Yang Shu's hot face and cold buttocks, and he was also a little angry, and said, "Please invite the Empress Dowager into the palace for a banquet!" ”
"No need."
Empress Dowager Xie waved her hand and said, "The palace is tired, and I want to go back to the palace to rest." ”
Zhao Dongting raised his eyebrows, and didn't say much, only instructed Gonggong Li, "Gonggong Li, take the Empress Dowager to the palace to rest." ”
Then his eyes fell on the rest of the imperial relatives, "What about you?" ”
He couldn't even name them.
"Hongu also goes to rest."
The Empress Dowager Quan spoke coldly.
Then those royal relatives were a little hesitant and looked at each other.
In the end, some people said that they wanted to go down and rest, while others did not speak.
Zhao Dongting had already arranged a place for them to live, and at the moment, he just asked Gonggong Li to arrange for those who wanted to go back to rest to leave. He took the rest of the people to the main hall.
Concubine Yang Shu undoubtedly felt something, and said to the Empress Dowager Xie: "Concubine go and accompany the Empress Dowager!" ”
"No need."
But the Empress Dowager Xie still just said this, rejecting the appearance of being thousands of miles away.
This made Concubine Yang Shufei sigh in her heart, so she had to say: "Then the concubine and Yu'er went to ask for peace for the Empress Dowager." ”
As soon as the words fell, Zhao Dongting had already grabbed her hand and walked towards the main hall.
The two gangs went their separate ways.
Concubine Yang Shu turned her head repeatedly, and finally couldn't help but ask Zhao Dongting softly, "Why is Yu'er so cold to the Empress Dowager?" ”
Zhao Dongting just shook his head, "Don't ask more questions now, Yu'er will explain to the queen mother in the future." ”
There are some things that are now in vain, even if they are said too much.
The attitude of Empress Dowager Xie and others after returning to the palace made Zhao Dongting realize that these people were actually not at peace in their hearts.
In this case, it is necessary to wrestle.
After all, there is only one person in power in this Great Song Dynasty.
And it is bound to wrestle, so why pretend to be too polite?
