Empress Zhao knelt in front of Empress Dowager Li and pleaded guilty to Empress Dowager Li.

Empress Dowager Li was escorted by Commander Hu.

Commander Hu escorted Empress Dowager Li over, and Empress Zhao asked the row of big houses behind the Kunning Palace to be cleaned up.

This row of big houses was originally used by Empress Zhao to stack her own cages.

But when the Empress Dowager Li came over, it was not good to ask the Empress Dowager to live in the side hall or the inner hall.

The side hall and the inner hall are cramped, and there are two or three people in a room at most, and they can't be stuffed any more.

So I could only wronged the Empress Dowager Li and lived in this poorly decorated house.

Fortunately, Empress Dowager Li didn't blame her at all, just said.

"Empress, thanks to you this time, if you hadn't called the forbidden army in time, and asked the forbidden army to bring artillery and muskets to protect the Kunning Palace, I'm afraid we wouldn't know where to hide?"

"The eldest princess of Wei and Mrs. Dangyang also entered the palace yesterday, I don't know if the two of them are out of the palace?"

Empress Dowager Li asked the queen.

The queen didn't dare to deceive Empress Dowager Li, so she immediately replied.

"Back to the Empress Dowager's words, the eldest princess of Wei and the lady of Dangyang County went out of the palace yesterday night, and yesterday night, outside the Donghua Gate, there was no such group of monsters gathered."

Hearing what the queen said, Empress Dowager Li secretly sighed a few times in her heart.

The eldest princess of Wei and the lady of Dangyang County, why are they so lucky?

As soon as the two of them left the palace on the front foot, there were so many monsters on the back foot that poured into the palace.

Empress Dowager Li was angry with the eldest princess of Wei in her heart, and slapped on the high table next to her, shaking the bowl on the top of the high table, and quickly fell to the ground and shattered.

"Queen Mother, who are you?"

The queen was puzzled and hurriedly asked.

The queen raised her head and looked at the side of the Empress Dowager Li,

"Queen, the mourning family is tired, I want to rest first, if there is nothing to do, the queen should go out first!"

As she spoke, Empress Dowager Li was carried by Mama Tan and went into the inner hall to rest.

The queen, on the other hand, went back to her palace.

She just felt strange, so dignified, the Queen Mother sent Aunt Fu out of the palace, what was it for?

and the Queen Mother asked about the eldest princess of Wei and Mrs. Dangyang County for no reason, what is this for?

The queen was puzzled, and immediately asked Xiao Han to invite Commander Hu over.

"Commander Hu, Aunt Fu who is waiting by the Queen Mother's side, do you know where she went? Why did the palace ask the Queen Mother about it, the Queen Mother was hesitant for a long time, but she never replied to me! ”

The eldest princess of Wei has lived in the Shangqing Palace outside the city for a long time, and her temperament has always been gentle, if she is not forced to do so, she really can't stand it, and the eldest princess of Wei will not personally dispose of Aunt Fu in front of the queen mother.

And the eldest princess of Wei did this, she offended the queen mother.

However, the eldest princess is the sister-in-law of the first emperor and the eldest aunt of the current official family.

The official family is not born to the Queen Mother, and if it is investigated, it will definitely be over.

One is the queen mother of this dynasty, and the other is the eldest princess of this dynasty, and no one is biased, so it can only be left like this.

The queen didn't plan to continue asking, so she instructed Commander Hu to say a few words, and instructed Commander Hu to go down and guard. Wanshulou

and explained to Commander Hu, just now she asked Commander Hu to come over, and these words must not be passed on.

After Commander Hu went out, the queen asked Da Han to invite Yu Niangzi and Miao Niangzi over.

……

In a row of big houses behind the Kunning Palace, Empress Dowager Li sat on the soft couch under the window, and Aunt Zheng brought a plate of oranges over, ready to peel oranges for Empress Dowager Li to eat.

"Queen Mother, these tangerines are the steward of the small kitchen in the Queen Mother's Palace, and they were specially sent to you, saying that they are filial to your old man."

"The steward of the small kitchen, surnamed Sun, committed theft in the palace because of her niece, and was invited by the queen to come over and take him to the cell of the palace boss."

Aunt Zheng said while peeling oranges for Empress Dowager Li.

"That steward Sun begged the queen mother, turned his head again, and begged the queen mother."

The time that Aunt Zheng served by the side of the Empress Dowager Li was longer than the time that Aunt Fu stayed by the side of the Empress Dowager Li.

So after Aunt Fu died, Empress Dowager Li immediately asked Aunt Zheng to come back to help her.

Eating the oranges peeled by Aunt Zheng, Empress Dowager Li asked Aunt Zheng beside her.

"That Sun is in charge, how do you want me to help her?"

Empress Dowager Li said, glancing at Aunt Zheng who was waiting beside her.

Aunt Zheng hurriedly lowered her head.

"Her niece, what did she steal from the queen's palace before she was handed over to the palace department for investigation?"

Aunt Zheng didn't hide it from the Empress Dowager Li, so she said.

"Steward Sun's niece, because she stole a box of rouge in front of the queen's dresser, she asked the queen's mother to call the palace to come over, but a box of rouge is just a big deal, it's just that the queen is making a big fuss."

Empress Dowager Li didn't listen to Aunt Zheng continue, interrupted Aunt Zheng's words, and asked.

"Is the queen making a big fuss, or are you hiding the truth and not telling me? What did you steal from the Queen's Palace?"

Aunt Zheng was frightened by Empress Dowager Li's sudden words, and had no choice but to tell Empress Dowager Li the truth.

"Back to the Queen Mother's words, it's a phoenix seal! The niece of the grandson steward stole the phoenix seal of the queen's mother, so the queen invited the palace to come and investigate. ”

Aunt Zheng fell into words, hurriedly knelt on the ground, and begged Empress Dowager Li for forgiveness.

"Ask the Queen Mother for forgiveness! The old slave didn't deliberately want to hide it from the Queen Mother, but the Sun Steward had already handed the silver to the old slave and asked the old slave to say these words in front of the Queen Mother. ”

Seeing Aunt Zheng kowtowing vigorously and begging for mercy, Empress Dowager Li only lowered her head and glanced at it, and sighed a few times in a row.

"Stealing the queen's phoenix seal, if you follow the rules of the palace, even if you beat that girl to death, it is not too much. Now that she has just invited Gong Zhengji to investigate, the queen is still very merciful. ”

"If it were me, I would have asked someone to cripple that girl's hands and feet."

When Empress Dowager Li said this, Aunt Zheng was even more frightened.

"The Queen Mother, they are all old slaves, but please spare the old slave for the sake of the old slave who has served you for so many years!"

Empress Dowager Li didn't speak, and sighed a few times in a row.

"You have been by my side for so many years, and I am extremely relieved of you. I didn't think that you came to Kunning Palace, and you caused such a big trouble for me. ”

"The queen has always enforced the law impartially, but I'm afraid she won't let you go easily. I don't want to protect you, because you are too useless, useless people, it is useless to continue to stay by my side and serve, and after the monster is disposed of, you will follow out of the palace! ”

Hearing what the Queen Mother said, Aunt Zheng was so frightened that she fainted on the spot.

Aunt Zheng finally returned to the Empress Dowager Li to serve, and now the Empress Dowager is going to drive her out again, she doesn't want to go out of the palace, she just wants to stay by the Empress Dowager's side to serve.
