Although King Gongjun ignored the affairs of the court, he also vaguely knew that the Empress Dowager had been dissatisfied with the queen for a long time.

The biggest contradiction between them is about the imperial heir.

In the eyes of the Empress Dowager, the empress hooked the emperor to favor her, so that the imperial heirs were scarce. This is a sin that brings disaster to the country and the people.

If it had been in the past, she would have had many reasons to clean up the queen.

But since the queen's identity as the princess of Northern Qi was revealed, she single-handedly planned the return of Northern Qi to Shun. It's a great achievement. Even the Empress Dowager is not good at treating her in a short period of time.

King Gongjun took advantage of this and vigorously stirred up the relationship between the Empress Dowager and the Empress.

Originally, the Empress Dowager was dissatisfied because her favorite youngest son and grandson liked the empress, but now because of her, another royal child in the clan has been imprisoned.

How could she not be angry.

"It's all the queen's uneasy!" She came to a conclusion.

King Gongjun said cautiously: "Empress Dowager, then this matter ......"

"The mourning family will go and tell the emperor to let Xing'er come out as soon as possible." The Empress Dowager said, "But the mourning family also has to say a word to you, and you will discipline him in the future." That's it this time, if there is any trouble next time, you don't have to come to the mourning family, and the mourning family doesn't care. ”

King Gongjun was overjoyed and immediately fell to the ground.

"Go back and wait for news."

"The old minister retired."

After King Gongjun came out, he saw the eldest princess Yuan Ji standing at the door, so he greeted him with a smile.

Yuan Ji responded lukewarmly.

King Gongjun secretly pouted and left.

Yuan Ji was not valued by the emperor, and the royal family didn't take her very seriously.

After Yuan Ji entered, she saw the Empress Dowager sitting and rubbing her forehead, so she stepped forward to replace the palace maid, and said intimately: "The imperial grandmother was originally enjoying the blessings, but she had to worry about the Great Zhou, and Yuan Ji couldn't bear to look at it. ”

The Empress Dowager glanced at her and said lightly: "Why did you remember to enter the palace?" ”

"Yuan Ji came to greet the imperial grandmother. There is one more thing to tell the imperial grandmother. ”

"Say it."

"I'm happy."

"Really?" The Empress Dowager was a little happy.

Whether she likes Yuan Ji or not, she is still happy when she hears that the royal family is about to have a newborn.

Yuan Ji smiled: "Yes, it's been three months. I had always had an unstable fetus before, so I didn't dare to tell my grandmother. Now it's good. ”

"In this case, you should stay in the princess's mansion and raise it with peace of mind, and you don't have to go into the palace to ask for peace." The Empress Dowager said with concern, "You are also not too young, and you are pregnant with your first child, so you should be extra careful." ”

"Yes, Yuan Ji remembers."

"Where do I still have some good bird's nests, you can take them back and use them, they are the most nourishing."

"Thank you, Grandmother." Yuan Ji rubbed her temples diligently, and seemed to say inadvertently, "On my way into the palace just now, I passed by an inn, and I seemed to see the queen and the little emperor's uncle." ”

"Huh?" The Empress Dowager really cares.

Yuan Ji hurriedly said: "Maybe it's because I'm dazzled and wrong." How could the queen dine in the same inn as the little emperor? She should be in the palace right now, right? ”

The Empress Dowager's face sank: "She's really outside." Otherwise, you can't provoke Zhao Xing's incident. ”

"What's the matter with Zhao Xing?"

"You don't know yet?" The Empress Dowager sneered, "It's all a good thing done by the Empress." The mourning family is still strange, this queen is not good to stay in the palace, why should she leave the palace. It turned out to be to meet the King of Qin. This unruly woman! ”
