Chapter 140: Call me Queen Mother from now on

Yue'er asked, "Who is the ambassador of harmony?" ”

Lan Qiu said: "Of course it's Taiwei Gao, ha, speaking of it with laughter, yesterday the prince and King Qi went to the Taiwei Mansion in person, those subordinates didn't dare to stop them, they walked to the dormitory, and found that this old guy was actually doing that kind of thing with two maidservants at the same time, and someone shouted, this old guy shouted outside, saying that if the two prisoners wanted him to be an ambassador for peace, he would say that he was sick!" ”

"Hmph, Captain Gao is self-inflicted."

"Yes, it turned out that he found the prince and the king of Qi standing at the door, and his face turned green with fright, so he hurriedly kowtowed to forgiveness."

Yue'er nodded.

"Well deserved!"

"Niangniang, do you know that when King Sui left today, he also quarreled with the crown prince and King Qi."

"Ah, why?"

"The crown prince and the king of Qi want to arrange for General Zhao to be the general of the protector, but the king of Qi resolutely disagrees, and they quarrel."

"And who was decided?"

"King Sui asked General Zhao and General Xin to compete, but as a result, General Xin only took a face-to-face and stabbed the surnamed Zhao under the horse, and the result was that King Sui won, and the prince and King Qi were very faceless."

Yue'er sighed, she remembered that General Zhao was the queen's person, but she didn't expect General Xin to be so powerful, she didn't know that she would fight immediately, and the victory or defeat would be one or two.

The north wind rose again.

At this moment, King Zhaozhen, who was dressed in plain clothes, walked into the palace gate of Renming Palace.

In the dormitory of the Renming Palace, Zhao Zhen bowed to the queen Sikong Wenlan.

The dormitory is now furnished in a very simple way, with only a bed, a cabinet and a chair, and the bed is lying with a mysterious spirit.

Xuan Ling's face was haggard and unbearable, his eyes were open, his face was blue, his lips were pale, and his eyes were very confused.

The queen fiddled with a cup of tea in front of her, and behind her stood a thin old eunuch, this was Wang Chou, the head of the Renming Palace, and there were two imperial doctors kneeling beside the bed, one holding a needle and the other holding a bottle, and was bleeding Xuan Ling, and the blood left on Xuan Ling's body was dark red in color, which made people frightened.

Zhao Zhen was already shocked when he saw Xuan Ling's appearance, and when he saw that the queen ignored him, he was even more sincerely afraid.

"Daguan Wang."

"The villain is here."

"Has the edict to canonize the Twenty Princes Zhaowu ready?"

"Yes, it has been prepared, and the twenty-prince Zhao Wu will be crowned as the righteous king, and the righteous king's mansion will be given."

"Well, very well, you go and call it now."

The queen waved her hand, Wang Chou bowed, and withdrew.

Zhao Zhen didn't dare to come out, the queen didn't need to inform the prince and King Qi, she sent someone to summon her, I don't know why the queen mother suddenly gave up power, and now the real power in the palace is in her hands?

"Smack, smack"

There was a knock on the door outside.

"Come in."

The queen snorted lazily.

As soon as the door opened, Maitreya smiling Zhou Shanggong walked in and bowed to the queen.

"Niangniang, Concubine Xian and Concubine Rong have been waiting outside the palace for two hours, and they said they wanted to see the emperor."

The queen grimaced and threw down the teacup with a snap.

"Didn't the palace say it, Your Majesty won't see anyone, you go and tell them, the harem concubines, without the decree of the palace and the queen mother, no one is allowed to disturb the emperor's treatment, if you come again, you will be blown away directly!"

"Yes"

Zhou Shanggong answered, got up and went out.

The two female officials that the queen likes to use the most, one is Yu Shanggong, the other is Zhou Shanggong, Zhou Shanggong is on duty today, the queen also waved her hand to the two imperial doctors, and the two got up and bowed, and also retreated.

After everyone left, Zhao Zhen asked cautiously: "The queen summoned Zhen'er, I don't know what to order?" ”

"Get up."

The queen's voice suddenly became soft.

Zhao Zhen responded and stood up in a nervous mood.

The queen left her seat and walked in front of Zhao Zhen, took his hand, and said, "Zhen'er, don't be too sad about Lingtang, since she is gone, this palace will take care of you in the future." ”

Zhao Zhen sighed, very surprised, what did the queen mean by suddenly giving herself this hint?

"The queen is raised, Zhen'er is flattered, I don't know what you have to tell your son?"

"This palace has nothing to order, I just want to ask you, what are your plans in the future when the concubine is gone?"

Zhao Zhen shook his head.

"My father's poisoning has not been solved, and my sons are helpless, what are the plans now?"

The queen nodded.

"Is your Xinwang Mansion okay?"

"It's good, the place of the Xinwang Mansion is big, and the subordinates are enough, and the father has always arranged for teachers to teach his sons."

"yes, who usually helps you the most?"

Zhao Zhen thought about it.

"Naturally, it's my father."

The queen covered her mouth and smiled, she got up and pulled Zhao Zhen to the next door, closed the door, and only the two of them were left in the house.

"Zhen'er, you know, for so many years, Bengong has been childless, you are a clever and intelligent child, you know what Bengong wants."

Zhao Zhen suddenly understood, the queen asked him to vote for his name, you must know that the prince is the son of the virtuous concubine, and the king of Qi is the son of the concubine, once these two people take the throne, the mother and son join forces, the queen's situation will be very embarrassing, but why let the prince and the king of Qi supervise the country together, do you want them to fight and lose?

Thinking of this, Zhao Zhen fell to his knees, kowtowed, and said: "Thank you for the queen's lift, Zhen'er will definitely serve the queen well in the future, you are my mother!" ”

The queen smirked.

"Get up, don't think that this palace has just canonized Zhao Wu, what will happen to him, as long as you honor this palace well, among the princes in the future, you will be the most promising one."

When the queen said this, Zhao Zhen hurriedly bowed and said: "Zhen'er is still young, you have to study hard, but the queen has orders in the future, and she doesn't dare to refuse." ”

"Well, it's good, the young man is not arrogant or impatient, and he deserves to be commended."

"Thank you for cultivating the queen."

"In the future, when there is no one, you can call me the queen mother."

"Much, thank you Queen, oh no, it's the Queen Mother!"

The queen sighed with some apprehension.

"Zhen'er, you really want to thank this palace, because in the past few years, you know who has silently supported you behind the scenes, making you stand out from the prince, you can be crowned king at such a young age, and the mother and son were reunited some time ago?"

"Yes, it's you?"

Zhao Zhen's heart was shocked, he knew that there must be someone behind him, this person was very powerful, but he never imagined that he was the queen.

The queen nodded, grinning, very kind.

"Yes, the queen mother has always been very optimistic about you, thinking that you are smart, sensible, and a pillar, but the identity of this palace is special and cannot show emotions, so I can tell you until now."

Zhao Zhen has always felt that the force behind him may be the first person in the dynasty, Sikong Man, and he has never figured out why Lord Sikong supports him, but now he understands that he has long been a chess piece noticed by the queen.

The closer the queen is to Zhao Zhen, the more afraid Zhao Zhen is in his heart, he has never thought of participating in the battle for the heir, but now if he does not accept the queen's kindness, the end must be very miserable, yesterday Concubine Duan told him that there was another reason for the death of the concubine, maybe this is the reason, but now he can only deal with it.

The queen sighed and wiped the corners of her eyes.

"The imperial doctor said that if the poison on your father's body can't be solved in two days, I'm afraid it will be difficult to wake up in the future, which is a troublesome matter."

"Is there any danger to my father's life?"

"The imperial doctor said that this poison is brain-hurting, not necessarily fatal."

Zhao Zhen sighed.

"Who is so vicious?"

"It's just that I haven't caught it yet, the female thief doesn't know what her identity is, Gale City is almost turned upside down now, and all the young women are registered one by one, but I can't find any clues!"

"It's really hard for the queen mother, so you have to worry about taking care of it every day."

Zhao Zhen called it like this, and felt a little awkward in his heart.

"You can say that, it proves that you have grown up and can be sensible, very good, now you believe that there are still some needs in the palace, you can talk to the queen mother."

Zhao Zhen hurriedly shook his head.

"No, not really."

The queen smiled and said, "The queen mother heard that King Jing Zhaoyi went to your house every once in a while to disturb you, is there such a thing?" ”

Hearing King Jing's name, Zhao Zhen's face flashed with anger, and then he was deflated again.

"Yes, His Royal Highness King Jing likes to play in the Erchen Mansion, he, he is not every three or five days, it is ten days and a half months, I, I can't beat him."
