"Compensation?" The eldest princess of Yi'an sneered, "Queen Mother, do you remember that although your surname is Yao, you are the Queen Mother and the daughter-in-law of the Chu family?" Why should you use the interests of the royal family to exonerate your mother's family! ”

"Imperial sister-in-law, this palace reminds you that this world is His Majesty's world, not you, the Queen Mother's world!"

As soon as these words came out, Empress Dowager Yao's face turned pale in an instant, "You, you, what nonsense are you talking about!" When did the mourning family use royal etiquette to exonerate my mother's family......"

The eldest princess of Nghe An clearly said that she, the queen mother, was favoritism, and she also disregarded the imperial power. This world is His Majesty's world, not the world of you, the Queen Mother, and this is almost a big rebellion to say that she Yao is arrogating.

Empress Dowager Yao immediately defended herself, "Cheng Enhou, Cheng Enhou has no crime, there is no such thing as exoneration." Ngee An, you, you, you don't want to slander the mourning family! I was so anxious and panicked that I couldn't speak very well, and I stammered unconsciously.

Compared with Empress Dowager Yao's panic, the eldest princess of Yi'an looked calm as usual, "What is the sin of Cheng Enhou, there is a public opinion, and it is not something that can be decided by touching the skin of your mouth." ”

"You...... You are talking nonsense! Empress Dowager Yao was in a panic, her lips couldn't help but tremble, and her words were all trilling, "Emperor, don't listen to Yi'an's nonsense, Chengenhou is loyal to him, and what he does is to do his duty as a courtier, you must believe him." ”

The Emperor's eyes drooped slightly, but his expression was obviously a little gloomy.

I have to say that the words of the eldest princess of Yi'an have reached his heart, this world is the world of his emperor, even if the Empress Dowager Yao is his own mother, in the final analysis, he is the king of a country, even if it is the queen mother, it is only his courtier.

He cared about the Yao family as his mother family, and was willing to be tolerant of one or two, that was his grace, and if he dealt with it impartially, it should also be. What to do, it should be all up to him, why does he have to worry about the face of the Queen Mother?

The eldest princess of Nghe An has been quietly paying attention to the emperor's face, and seeing the emperor's expression at the moment, the eldest princess of Nghe An pondered, it's time to end.

She stood up and saluted the emperor, "Your Majesty, embarrass Your Majesty, is it an old body." Thunder and rain are Jun En, no matter what His Majesty decides, the old body will not have complaints, there is only one ......"

The eldest princess of Yi'an paused, and then said: "If Your Majesty wants to compensate, you don't have to use it on Lan'er, the real grievances are the border soldiers, and please ask Your Majesty to reward them." ”

After hearing such a profound and righteous remark, the emperor hurriedly spoke: "Auntie, I am not ......"

"Emperor!" Before the emperor finished speaking, he was interrupted by the Empress Dowager Yao, who was afraid that he would say the rest of the words.

The eldest princess of Yi'an smiled, and then blessed her body, "Please forgive your majesty, the old body is old and can't afford to be tired, and the old body wants to retire first." ”

The emperor was silent for a moment, and then nodded, "It's okay, my aunt has been tired all the way, so I have a good rest first, and I will take care of my aunt at night." The Jing'an Palace where my aunt used to live, I have always kept it for my aunt, and my aunt can live with peace of mind. ”

The eldest princess of Nghe An did not refuse, she smiled gently, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

After speaking, the eldest princess of Yi'an led Luo Zhengqing's brothers and sisters away. Chu Zheng also bowed to the emperor and said, "Father, if there is nothing to do, the son will also retire." ”

How to deal with Cheng Enhou, obviously Empress Dowager Yao still has something to say, and the others can leave first.

However, the emperor stopped him, "Zheng'er, don't hurry up and leave." ”

Huo Sijin's eyes flashed slightly, and the emperor specially asked Chu Zheng to stay, obviously to ask him for his opinion on this matter, and it was even very likely that Chu Zheng would be this "bad guy".

"Yes, Father." Chu Zheng nodded in response, then turned around and instructed Huo Sijin, "The eldest princess is here, the Luo family brothers and sisters will definitely move out of the East Palace, you go and take care of it, don't be sloppy." ”

When Chu Zheng said this, it was clear that he was taking her away, Huo Sijin frowned, and then thought about it, even if she didn't return to the East Palace, the emperor would not let her listen to the corner in the Heart Cultivation Palace, and there was no difference between going and not leaving.

"Obey Your Highness's orders." Huo Sijin left.

Seeing that everyone else was gone, Empress Dowager Yao hurriedly spoke, "Emperor, you must not listen to Xinyi'an's words, she is a personal vendetta, she has a personal grudge with the mourning family, so she deliberately took revenge on the matter of Enhou." ”

"Queen Mother!"

This "Queen Mother" almost roared angrily, which frightened Empress Dowager Yao's heart and liver, and she involuntarily covered her heart, "The emperor ......"

The emperor took a deep breath, gradually calmed down his anger, and after a while, he said patiently with the Empress Dowager Yao; "Queen Mother, you must know that it is about my aunt and the Luo family, and I am also very difficult."

Empress Dowager Yao was slightly stunned, "The mourning family doesn't want to embarrass the emperor, the mourning family is just, it's just ...... After all, the Yao family is the emperor's mother's family, if you really deal with the Marquis of Cheng'en, it will also hurt the emperor's face, and the mourning family is also for the emperor's face. ”

Yes, she protects the Yao family, also to protect the emperor's face, and not let the emperor have a tainted maternal family.

Empress Dowager Yao thought that if she said this, she would definitely move the emperor, but she didn't know that the more she said this, the more unhappy the emperor became. What is his face, to put it bluntly, the Empress Dowager Yao is selfish, blindly partial to her mother's family, and makes up beautiful words to coax him.

"I know what I know." The emperor lowered his eyes and said to the Empress Dowager Yao with the last remaining patience, "I'm tired, the queen mother should step back first." ”

Empress Dowager Yao saw that the emperor was indeed tired, and she only said in her heart that he was worried about how to appease the Luo family. She thought that the emperor had been moved by her, so she nodded and agreed, "The mourning family will go first, if you are tired, take a good rest." ”

After speaking, he said to Chu Zheng earnestly: "Zheng'er, you have a good relationship with the Luo family, you have to do your best to share your father's worries." ”

Chu Zheng has a good relationship with the Luo family, so if he comes forward to appease the Luo family, he will get twice the result with half the effort. Empress Dowager Yao said so in her heart.

……

After Empress Dowager Yao left, the emperor rubbed his eyebrows and asked, "Zheng'er, what do you think about this matter?" ”

"Marquis Chengen, cut the lord." Chu Zheng replied.

Hearing this, the emperor almost stood up in surprise, "Cut the lord? "That's too straightforward, isn't it?

"Zheng'er, you must know in your heart that the person Cheng Enhou is targeting is you, and no one on the Luo family's side has thought of it. If you directly propose to cut the knight, aren't you afraid that others will say that you have a personal vendetta? ”

This son is quick and ruthless in his words and actions, but the emperor didn't expect that as soon as he opened his mouth, he thought that he would at least say a word, judge the crime according to the law, and deal with it impartially.

Chu Zheng shook his head, "It's okay, cutting off the title of Marquis Cheng'en is not only to punish him, but also because he can't afford the title of Marquis Cheng'en for what he has done." ”

Cheng En, Cheng En, Cheng En is the royal grace, but Cheng Enhou is already a negative monarch for what he has done, so naturally he can't afford the name of Cheng Enhou anymore.

Hearing this, the emperor fell into deep thought.

Chu Zheng was not in a hurry, the emperor fell into deep thought, so he stood quietly below, quietly waiting for the emperor to consider.

After a while, the emperor raised his eyes slightly and looked at Chu Zheng. Chu Zheng instantly understood that he had already made a decision.

"You're still sensible, and you won't embarrass me." Whether to dispose of Chengenhou or not, in fact, the emperor has already made some decisions in his heart, but how to deal with it really annoys him. And what Chu Zheng said made him suddenly enlightened. Disposing of the Marquis of Cheng'en and cutting off the marquis not only satisfies the eldest princess of Yi'an, but also highlights the dragon power of the royal family, and conveys a meaning to everyone: The Marquis of Cheng'en was cut off, not because the emperor was afraid of the Luo family, but because the Marquis of Cheng'en had the grace of the king.

He is the monarch of Southern Chu, and he has the right to decide everything about the subjects of Southern Chu, but he is not influenced by others.

"Zheng'er, this matter can't be delayed, you go and run for me to convey my will." Emperor Zhengse said, "If the Marquis of Cheng'en dares to resist the decree, do you know what to do?" ”

Chu Zheng nodded, "Erchen will let Chengenhou ...... Lord Yao didn't dare to complain. ”

Although he was taken away from his title, his official position is still there, and it is very appropriate to call him Lord Yao.

"It's time to call Lord Yao." The emperor thought thoughtfully, "This is also a reminder to me, the Yao family is too disagreeable, it is not enough to cut the knight, and the official position has to be moved." ”

Subsequently, the emperor added another stroke to the holy decree, and Yao Weiji, the Marquis of Chengen, not only lost the marquis, but even his official position was reduced by three levels, and only five grades remained......
