Emperor Mingde was furious and fell this heart, and the entire palace trembled three times. The queen was the first to sit still, and hurriedly came to the Heart Nourishing Hall on a snowy night, but the attendant outside didn't look at her, stopped her, and said that she wouldn't let her in. The imperial doctor was worried and busy, and Emperor Mingde had just come to his senses, and no one wanted to see him. The queen waited outside for a long time, and there was no movement in and out. She was anxious in her heart, her brain turned, she thought of the old queen mother of Ningshou Palace, held her breath, gritted her teeth and moved to Ningshou Palace.

"Niangniang is not angry, but he is a palace man who has no eyes, and there is a way to get him down in the future."

Queen Pan's current worries are not on a little palace person, she is now anxiously worried that her father Pan Zongjiang will not clean up in the south of the Yangtze River, and she will be in trouble if she is accused by someone who has a heart and sues her in front of the saint. At that time, Lin'an Mansion will have a great contribution to disaster relief, and if it is consumed by this, the Sacred Heart will be greatly reduced.

It's just that the saint didn't let her enter the door of the Heart Cultivation Hall tonight, can she not be in a hurry. As for...... On the Queen Mother's side, she can't help it. The relationship between Empress Pan and the old queen mother is well known to everyone in the palace. How close Knowles and Pan were in their early years, how alienated and indifferent they are now, and they hate each other.

She hurried to Ningshou Palace, and the palace people didn't care about the slippery road. The old lady who had just spoken looked at her face, and didn't dare to say more, so she tightly guarded this most noble woman in Dacheng by the side, and a team of honors drove all the way to the inner palace along the snowy palace road. The lantern swayed, because it was too urgent, a lantern-carrying palace man slipped his foot, the glass of the palace lantern was broken, and the whole person knelt down tremblingly. Bu Yuan was stopped by this moment, and the queen turned around, and her eyes became gloomy.

One by one, these are all ineffective things. She thought resentfully, and reached out to push the trembling palace man to the side, "Get out of the way, useless thing!" Perhaps her expression at the moment was very different from her usual calmness, and the palace man fell to the ground trembling and fell to her knees on the side of the road, quickly bowed her head, and confessed again and again.

Queen Pan looked away, and the whole person was in a state of imminent shock, how could she have the friendly gesture she made on weekdays. Her heart was uncertain, and her face was even more gloomy. The current appearance is the same as before Duan Hong became angry.

No one dares to slack off any more, when they arrived at Ningshou Palace, the palace gate was closed, and only two red palace lamps were hung high, and a layer of snow had accumulated on them, and between the light and the dark, the queen's face was even darker.

This is the case in front of the Heart Cultivation Palace, and it is still the same when it arrives at Ningshou Palace. She was going to sneer, who is this closed-door soup for? She still didn't believe it, the old queen mother wouldn't know about such a big movement in the inner court's heart cultivation hall. This old fox from Knowles's family seems to have thousands of ears and thousands of pairs of eyes, and she must have known the slightest disturbance in the palace - including the movement she is coming at the moment.

Queen Pan tilted her head slightly, looked at the old lady beside her, her eyes moved, what else did the old palace people who were waiting for her not understand. A few steps forward, facing the guards at the gate of the palace, a slight blessing, "It's very difficult to disturb late at night, the queen mother has something urgent to see the queen mother, it is related to the holy dragon body, and I hope you can make it convenient and pass it in." ”

The palace gate of Ningshou Palace is closed, which already shows the attitude of the Queen Mother, she doesn't want to see it. If the former Knowles and the former Empress Dowager Lou had given this old lady a hundred dares, she would not dare to take this step forward and ask. Empress Pan waited behind her, holding the palace lantern in a mighty way, and under this style, the head of the guard knew that it was easy to fool, so he sent someone to pass it on.

"Wait a minute, my subordinates will go."

There was a dull opening and closing sound of the palace door, and then it closed again. There was not a trace of light inside, Pan waited on the ceremonial car, and all the palace people were wet with shoes and socks, standing in the thick snow and bowing their heads silently. Now the snow stopped and began to fall again, falling on people's faces, and then the cold wind that rolled through the palace alley blew, like a scraper, biting cold, terrifyingly cold.

The queen was wrapped in a fox fur coat, her sideburns were exquisite, not messy, but the golden red coral phoenix beads shook in the wind of the snowy night, like a heart that could not be still.

The palace door soon opened and closed again, and this time the lights were on, and out with the guards was an old eunuch, that is, the oldest Shi Mama beside the queen, who had to be honored as a major chief when she saw it. This important eunuch is the old man next to the Queen Mother, and looking at the entire palace, there is no palace person with the highest status than him. The current big celebrity Li Lu Li is the general manager of Li Lu, who is on an errand in front of the emperor, is his former apprentice, and he has to respectfully call "master" when he sees it.

The major prisoner staggered out, his face extremely flat, as if he had expected this scene. He walked to the door, bowed deeply, couldn't see the attitude, and only invited someone in.

"Niangniang, the Queen Mother is invited." With a still sharp voice and a lower head, Queen Pan couldn't see his expression, so she sent someone to help him up, "I'm tired of the boss, please get up quickly." "There are a few palace people in the palace who have achieved such a status are simple characters, even the queen's politeness should also be given, and the major eunuch is worthy of this "boss", he was carried up, under the palace lamp, the old and gray face, still has no expression, even standing close, but also feels very distant. The father-in-law looked at the queen, and he was still courteous, yes, he could pick it. He said coldly, "The old slave can't afford to be a mother, the snow night is very cold, please come in." ”

The palace gate was wide open, and the lights in Ningshou Palace illuminated the road in front of the palace. The queen stepped down, and the sound of stepping on the snow came from inside the gate of the Silent Palace, click-click-click-click. Mama Shi carried the queen to the palace with the important eunuch, and as soon as the warm curtain was lifted, a very faint incense floated from it, which was warm, but it made people think for a while, raise their vigilance, and be cautious.

To this day, the queen is still a little jealous of this old queen mother. During the Qizhang period, the Knowles family was the queen of the Middle Palace, although the noble family accounted for a part, but the true ability to stand tall for decades can be relied on, that is, the current saint, and she also single-handedly supported the enthronement, and so far she is firmly seated in the position of the queen mother. Although Knowles is not as good as before, it is also a veteran family with a lot of prestige in Beijing. At that time, the Pan family was carried by the Knowles family, if it weren't for that bit of kinship and the trend of the times, Queen Pan's position in the world might not have been given to anyone.

The Queen Mother has long disliked Queen Pan, since the decline of the Knowles, she has lived in the deep palace for a long time, eating fasting and reciting Buddha, except for the time when the saint is fixed to ask for peace, the palace gate of Ningshou Palace is closed for most of the time. The queen has not seen the Empress Dowager Lou for a long time, and it is a performance outside the palace gate, but when she arrives in the palace, she does not dare to make another time.

"Queen Mother Kang'an......" She didn't dare to lose the rules, who knew that the kneeling ceremony was not halfway through, and a cold voice came from above, "This big night, you can't live in Kunhe Palace, what are you doing here with my old wife?" "Straight to the point, the queen is not allowed to talk any nonsense.

Empress Pan still maintained a kneeling posture, did not dare to raise her head, and only said in a low voice, "The Holy Lord vomited blood and fainted in the Heart Cultivation Palace, and the palace ...... was anxious for a while, disturbed the peace of the Queen Mother, and asked the Queen Mother to forgive her sins. ”

"The emperor fainted, and his own imperial doctor watched, what are you anxious about? And they came to me. Empress Dowager Lou looked at the woman with a phoenix on the ground, and said softly, "You are the queen." The latter sentence was slightly mocking, and Queen Pan's heart tightened when she heard it, and she couldn't help but raise her head.

The Queen Mother was half-lying on the long couch by the window, her knees covered with thick fur, she leaned on the big pillow, her hair was gray, meticulously tied, and she had obviously not slept before. Empress Dowager Lou's eyes are now a little muddy, but the eyes of people are still sharp and sharp, these old eyes few people dare to look at each other, there is a mirror, everything is clear, everything is clear in her heart, even if she claims to be the ancient Buddha of the green light, ignoring current affairs for a long time.

Pan Shi was undoubtedly afraid of these eyes, she was afraid that the things that could not be hidden in her heart would be excavated and dialysed in this eye, and finally in exchange for this sneer. The Queen Mother never took her seriously, she was and still is.

She gritted her teeth and said stubbornly, "The Holy Lord fainted, isn't the Queen Mother worried at all?" ”

The father-in-law raised his eyebrows beside him, and soon returned to his low-eyed expression, as if he didn't care at all, and it was very similar to the queen mother's expression. But since the queen has already been invited in, it is not good to leave it like this. When the queen mother heard this, the armor of her fingers was raised, and soon the eunuch brought the tea cup, and while pouring the tea, she lowered her eyes and looked at the queen who was still kneeling on the ground.

The Empress Dowager took a sip of water slowly, and asked without raising her eyes, "The emperor fainted, don't you know what the reason is?" ”

Pan's heart jumped, no one in the court knew about the issue of Jiangnan salt administration and taxation. The Queen Mother asked easily, she gritted her teeth and replied, "Since the Queen Mother knows everything, Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess is far away in Jiangnan, and the Queen Mother doesn't care?" ”

Gonggong Chong retracted his gaze, and his slightly flickering gaze quickly fell.

The queen's sentence undoubtedly poked the queen mother's heart, and the old queen's face suddenly changed, and her eyes swept over sharply.

On the Jiangnan side, not only the Pan family is involved, but there are also people from the Queen Mother over there. The Lin family, Lin Fuma, the Liangjiang Governor's Mansion, which the Queen Mother did everything she could, could they escape from it? Queen Pan was hard-headed, she couldn't see the Queen Mother being calm and relaxed, as if everything had nothing to do with her. When the eldest princess of Ruiyang married into the Jiangnan Lin family, was she selfless as a mother? Now that his face has changed, who will he show it? Hehe, she's not afraid.

Ruiyang's matter has always been a thorn in the queen mother's heart, it hurts so much that no one can touch it. The Queen Mother is in the inner court, but she has a lot of hands and eyes, and she knows the news from the Lin family in Jiangnan this morning. The Lin family can't help it anymore and has no choice, and after this night, the emperor will use him to kill chickens and monkeys in Jiangnan Xiaowanglong Garden.

But Ruiyang-

Empress Dowager Lou looked at the queen with anger in her eyes. The queen was shocked, and she didn't know that she had touched the scales.
