The style of Cining Palace is unusually quiet compared to other places, and even some people feel chilled, if the interior of Jingzhou is not turned on air conditioning or heating, the only difference between the good ice cellar is that there is no freezing.

However, when the ancestral hall entered, there was no sign of heating at all.

Walking inside, you can clearly hear the sound of wooden fish knocking on you one by one.

The figure facing a Buddha statue bent his back slightly, wearing a dark green shirt, just looking at the back, he felt how much wind and rain the old woman in front of him had managed.

Inside, a little monk knocked on the wooden fish again and again, and Liu Yiyuan, the personal guard of the Queen Mother, was also standing on the side and waiting motionlessly.

After entering the ancestral hall, Li Yunfeng also lowered his footsteps, walked in slowly, walked behind the queen mother, and said in person, "Queen Mother... ”

The Queen Mother did not stop, nor did the rosary in her hand stop, and it took five seconds before she said, "You are here." ”

The sound of the wooden fish has not stopped, and the atmosphere present has not changed, and the only source of fire in the room is the wisps of green smoke that slowly rises in front of the Queen Mother.

"These days are busy, today's Kongte came to visit the queen mother, the queen mother, please take care of your body, this ancestral hall is so cold, don't catch a cold." Li Yunfeng said.

"The mourning family eats fasting and recites the Buddha here is not a day or two, winter and summer heat, so many years have passed, and I haven't seen you remind, what the Buddha wants is this heart, and you have to bear such hardships in order to achieve positive results, you say yes or no." The Queen Mother said.

"Having said that, it's somewhat unbearable for the daughter to work so hard." Li Yunfeng said again.

"If you really feel sorry for your mother, then don't mix in the barracks, learn how to be a princess, and don't make the queen mother upset every day." The Queen Mother said again. "If you really want to talk about it, don't you have time to come and see me?"

What he said also made Li Yunfeng not know how to answer, so he could only lower his head and listen to the Queen Mother's count.

Even so, the sound of the wooden fish in the ancestral hall still did not mess with the chapter order, and the Queen Mother continued to chant silently.

Zhou Ruocheng stood aside, looking at Li Yunfeng, who was standing silently, and of course at the Queen Mother who continued to chant Buddha.

"Don't you plan to say hello when you look at our family's jokes behind the mourning family? Zhou Ruocheng? Finally, it was the Queen Mother who spoke first.

"Seeing that Niangniang is so pious, the grass people naturally don't dare to disturb Niangniang, and they want to wait for Niangniang to finish reciting the Buddha and then make a report." Zhou Ruocheng saluted.

"You're so tight." The Queen Mother tilted her head slightly and asked, "Tell me, what are you doing in my Cining Palace?" ”

"Let the villain be brave, the grass people have something they want to discuss with the Queen Mother in detail." Zhou Ruocheng said.

"What can I do that Mr. Zhou has rushed back from Huzhou thousands of miles away to see my old wife in this wet and cold place?" The Queen Mother asked again.

"Qi Niangniang, it's about the emperor's accession to the throne." Zhou Ruocheng bent down and said respectfully.

Liu Yiyuan, who was standing on the side, glanced at Zhou Ruocheng, but Zhou Ruocheng still maintained his original posture.

The Queen Mother took a deep breath, then raised one of her hands and motioned to the little monk to stop the movements in his hand, "You can stand down for the time being." ”

The little monk nodded and walked out respectfully.

Zhou Ruocheng glanced at the monk, his ears and fingers were bruised from the cold, but he still didn't slack off for a minute or a second.

The Queen Mother stood up slowly, then turned around, Liu Yiyuan raised her hand, and a palace maid walked in with a stove outside, handed it over to Liu Yiyuan, and then Liu Yiyuan sent it to the Queen Mother's hand.

The Queen Mother closed her eyes and felt the temperature in her hands for a while, then she breathed a sigh of relief, and put a mink shawl on her shoulders, which showed a trace of preciousness.

"You're here to be a lobbyist for my boy?" The Queen Mother looked at Zhou Ruocheng and asked.

"If you go back to your mother, it's not." Zhou Ruocheng replied.

"Then why did you come here to talk to the mourners?" The Queen Mother asked.

"It's not a secret, the little one was ordered by the princess to go to the emperor to be a lobbyist." Zhou Ruocheng also answered truthfully.

"Since Luo Ying instructed you to do this, why did you go to my Cining Palace at this time? Is it to take a sip of hot tea and drink it? The Queen Mother asked.

"It would be nice to have this hot tea to drink." Zhou Ruocheng also smiled, not an exaggeration, Zhou Ruocheng could still spit out white gas even in the house.

"If you want to have hot tea to drink here at the mourning house, you have to see if you have this ability." The Queen Mother also said.

"I don't know how Niangniang wants to see Xiaomin?" Zhou Ruocheng asked.

"The mourning family wants to see why you made my son change his mind." The Queen Mother said.

"It's simple." Zhou Ruocheng also smiled, "It's you, mother." ”

The Queen Mother was also a little stunned, and finally laughed, "Presumably Zhou Ruocheng, your kid has also become congested in Shanghai, and what do you think the mourning family has to do not let my emperor give up this time to ascend the throne?" ”

"Back to my mother's words." Zhou Ruocheng said, "The emperor gave the throne this time, because he is about to marry this princess, as a brother, the emperor naturally wants to preside over it in person, if the emperor is still on the throne at this time, it will be a good day for the whole country to celebrate, double happiness, for this happy word." Zhou Ruocheng said.

"It's true that the royal family registered for the marriage of Luoying, but this is too hasty, after all, the royal registration is not child's play, how can it be said that it will be advanced in advance?" The Queen Mother said.

"Is that what you think, mother?" Zhou Ruocheng asked.

"What do you want to say?" The Queen Mother looked at Zhou Ruocheng and also asked.

"No, the little one is just asking." Zhou Ruocheng also smiled, he didn't mean to raise his head during the whole process, and kept bowing his head and bowing.

"Don't raise your arms, put them down." The Queen Mother also said.

"Xie Niangniang." Zhou Ruocheng straightened up and looked at the Queen Mother with a smile.

"So tell me, since you're here to persuade the emperor, what are you doing here with me?" The Queen Mother asked.

"Naturally, the emperor listens to you more than the drafted people." Zhou Ruocheng said again.

"Then you are wrong, this time, the emperor seems to be very dissatisfied with the opinions of the Ai family, and insists on ascending the throne now, presumably you have also heard some inside information from Luoying, the emperor has sent people to put pressure on the mourning family many times, and even came in person." The Queen Mother said again.

"But you still haven't made any concessions, have you?" Zhou Ruocheng said again.

The Queen Mother was also stunned and looked at Zhou Ruocheng.

"So the dominant power is still in the hands of Niangniang, no matter how the emperor puts pressure, as long as Niangniang does not let go, it will be difficult to settle this day." Zhou Ruocheng said. "The mother is mainly in charge of dragging, after all, because of the villain's business, the princess will inevitably get married on the same day, once this wedding is over, the emperor naturally has no intention of early ranking."

"You came here to Mourning's house, in fact, to publicize your speculation?" The Queen Mother asked again.

"No, the grass people just came to take refuge in the Queen Mother." Zhou Ruocheng said.

"Evacuation?" The Queen Mother was also stunned, "Where did you come from to take refuge?" ”

"For this reason, the grass people are also willing to offer a foolish plan." Zhou Ruocheng said again.

"What's your plan?" The Queen Mother said.

"That is to let the grass people hide in Niangniang for a few days, wait until the Lantern Festival, and then don't hold a wedding The grass people have to go back, even if the emperor wants to start with me, he can't find anyone to come, after all, he never thought that I would hide in this Cining Palace, this time, the problem of the emperor's early accession to the throne can be easily solved." Zhou Ruocheng said.

"What a fool's errand." The Queen Mother also laughed and pointed at Zhou Ruocheng, "Come on, give me a seat." ”

"Xie Niangniang." It's not so much a stool, it's actually a cushion, and it's not very comfortable to sit on, but it's better than standing, after all, Li Yunfeng is still standing on the side.

"It's a good plan, but you've missed a few points." The Queen Mother said.

"Please also ask the Queen Mother to know clearly." Zhou Ruocheng bowed his head again.

"First, do you think the mourning family can really withstand this pressure? Unwilling to talk about life or death? The Queen Mother asked.

"The first emperor died, and the queen mother and her ministers stabilized the situation, and it was only over the years that the originally loose government was pacified, which is enough to prove that Niangniang has the ability to govern this court well." Zhou Ruocheng said.

"It's just a woman after all." The Queen Mother said.

"This reason alone is not enough to make you let go, right?" Zhou Ruocheng asked again.

"Second, my repeated opposition will only make outsiders think that I am trying to monopolize power and be spurned." The Queen Mother said again.

"You are the Queen Mother, the most noble woman in the world, who dares to chew your tongue behind your back?" Zhou Ruocheng asked again.

"The heart is separated from the belly." The Queen Mother said.

"And the emperor is still young now, and there are many and complicated things in this court, and he will be a little powerless." Zhou Ruocheng said again.

"Don't you think it's far-fetched to say that?" The Queen Mother also smiled, "That is my son single-handedly selected, in terms of age, my son is still two years older than you, and you have such achievements at such an age, so the emperor who discovered your piece of gold, is he still not qualified for the position of the emperor?" You know, how long has my son been preparing for this day? ”

"That..." Zhou Ruocheng is also speechless.

"The emperor is already alone enough, if you really say it, it may be that the mourning family has some nostalgia for the court... The Queen Mother said.

"Niangniang, where are you talking about this?" Zhou Ruocheng wanted to speak, but was stopped by the Queen Mother.

"It's time to let go and let him fly on his own." The Queen Mother also stood up.

"What do you mean, mother?" Zhou Ruocheng also asked with some doubts.

"It's weirdly cold here, go to the main hall with the mourning family, and drink hot tea by the way to warm your body." The Queen Mother said.

"Xie Niangniang." Zhou Ruocheng also stood up.

"But you can't drink this tea for nothing." The Queen Mother said again.

"Just for this hot tea, Niangniang has no richness." Zhou Ruocheng also said.

"You baby will only pick what your lover likes to say." The Queen Mother laughed again, "Naturally, I just let you go and say something for my son." ”

Zhou Ruocheng also lowered his head.

"This throne, the mourning family has handed it over, so don't worry about being the new emperor." The Queen Mother said.
