"The princess can think about it." Yang barely knew a few words, and knew that he couldn't talk to Xie Jinyi about anything else, and said with a smile, "There is one thing that my mother's family has instructed again and again, I have to thank the princess in person, when the prince of Chu was leaving, he promoted my mother's brother Yang Shun to be the keeper of the West City Gate, and his subordinates are in charge of more than 100 people. ”

If it weren't for Xie Jinyi's face, it would be difficult for Yang Shun to get ahead.

Yang Shun has some skills, but there are people with skills, and they don't necessarily have to promote him, which she knows very well.

"This is also Yang Shun's own creation, and I don't help here." Xie Jinyi had mentioned the younger brother of the Yang family once in Chu Yunzhao before, but later forgot about it because of this, but she didn't want Chu Yunzhao to remember it, thinking of this, she instructed, "As long as he does his duty, he will have his own future in the future." ”

The west gate is mainly used to escort military rations, military entry and exit, and businessmen to and fro.

Ordinary people rarely enter and leave the city from that side.

In contrast, the West City Gate is relatively much more important, and Chu Yunzhao's arrangement has its own profound meaning.

In fact, sometimes cronyism is not a bad thing.

As long as the relative is really up to the task.

"Don't worry, princess, I'll tell him what the princess has to say." Yang swore solemnly, "Let him guard the city gate well and live up to the princess's high expectations." ”

With the big tree of King Jing's Mansion here, Yang Shun will get ahead sooner or later.

"That's good." Xie Jinyi.

Before leaving, Yang repeatedly instructed: "The princess can raise the fetus with peace of mind, don't be too tired, just leave the child's small clothes and quilts to me to do, I will definitely prepare with the best materials, you can rest assured." ”

Although she is not a few years older than Xie Jinyi.

But as a mother-in-law, it is also justified to prepare these for Xie Jinyi's children.

Xie Jinyi knew that there was this custom in the capital, so he readily agreed.

The day before the birthday of the Empress Dowager Xiao, there was news in the palace that the state affairs were at the head, the Empress Dowager advocated frugality, the birthday was simple, there was no palace banquet, and everyone was not allowed to enter the palace to celebrate her birthday.

On the day of his birthday, Emperor Xianqing went to Cining Palace.

Cining Palace is quiet, and the needle can fall.

Even the courtyard is empty, there is no more prosperity and liveliness in the past, only a few palace maids are cleaning not far away, Leng Buding saw Emperor Xianqing coming, they knelt on the ground, and Emperor Xianqing entered the main hall without squinting.

Empress Dowager Xiao was dressed in a costume, and she didn't seem to have a sense of despair, and she was not surprised to see Emperor Xianqing coming, and smiled indifferently: "Isn't it that the emperor can't wait to send the mourning family away?" ”

Emperor Xianqing didn't speak, and sat down in his robe.

It was still the chair he was used to, and there was still a futon embroidered with the dark pattern of the dragon on the chair, and everything was the same as before.

Aunt Cheng Yingying stepped forward to serve tea.

It is the bamboo leaf tea he loved to drink in the early years, leaving only the most tender leaves of the bamboo leaves, which are dried first and then fried, and the taste is very fragrant.

It was many years ago, he didn't dare to drink the tea in the palace, lest he be poisoned, it was the Empress Dowager Xiao who personally picked the bamboo leaves, and the bamboo leaf tea made by hand gave him to drink, he liked it very much, and later he ascended the throne as the emperor, and tasted the world's famous tea, but from time to time he would think of the fragrance of this bamboo leaf tea, every now and then, he would come to Cining Palace to drink bamboo leaf tea, Empress Dowager Xiao knew his preferences, Cining Palace backyard planted a lot of bamboo, standing bamboo leaf tea.

Seeing that Emperor Xianqing was silent, Aunt Cheng suddenly knelt on the ground and cried: "Your Majesty, even though the Queen Mother is at fault, but the Queen Mother's sincerity to the Emperor has never changed, these days, the Queen Mother has copied Buddhist scriptures day and night, praying that God will bless the Emperor, bless Daliang to quell the war as soon as possible, and pray that the country and the people will be safe, and the world will be peaceful, Your Majesty, you can't treat the Queen Mother like this!" ”

"Auntie, let's step aside!" Empress Dowager Xiao smiled sadly, "Life and death are in the sky, wealth is in the sky, and the mourning family should also enjoy it, it is not a pity to die, why should you embarrass the emperor." ”

"Your Majesty ......" Aunt Cheng knelt on the ground.

Emperor Xianqing finished drinking the tea with an expressionless face, got up and said: "Don't worry, the Queen Mother, I am not a ruthless and unrighteous person, you can live in this Cining Palace with confidence, no one will come to embarrass you, as for other things, you don't have to worry about the Queen Mother." ”

"Shen Mo hasn't come to see the mourning family for a long time, but the emperor has taken care of him?" Empress Dowager Xiao looked at Emperor Xianqing with a sad gaze, and said with red eyes, "The emperor kept saying that the mourning family could live with peace of mind, but even the imperial physician assigned to the mourning family was exempted from errands, so that the mourning family could rest assured, if the emperor really couldn't tolerate the mourning family, he could do it directly, saving the mourning family from suspense day and night, and the emperor knew that this kind of taste was more uncomfortable than death." ”

It seemed like overnight, she had fallen from the clouds to hell.

What made her even more annoyed was that she didn't even know how she fell.

She originally thought that she didn't need to worry about the emperor's attitude towards her in her life, even if the emperor wouldn't think like that about her, she was still his queen mother, and the person he respected the most in his life, she thought that she could share the world with him and take charge of the beam together, in fact, she had always done so.

never thought that she still miscalculated, he was the emperor, and the side of the couch could not allow others to sleep peacefully.

This person obviously includes her.

"Shen Mo poisoned people, the evidence is conclusive, the law is intolerable for such an act, I remember that he has been in the Tai Hospital for many years, and ordered him to close his house and think about it, so the Queen Mother should not worry about him." Emperor Xianqing walked a few steps, then stopped and said, "The Queen Mother doesn't have to worry day and night, if I don't embarrass the Empress Dowager, I will definitely not embarrass the Empress Dowager." ”

After that, he left Cining Palace without looking back.

Gonggong He trotted up and followed, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, I found out, there is indeed a secret room in the Cining Palace, which is the place where the Queen Mother and the male pet had a tryst in the past, but the night wind did not detect the exit of that secret room." ”

"Are there any male pets in Cining Palace now?" Emperor Xianqing's face sank.

All along, he turned a blind eye to these things and ignored them.

But when he thought that the Queen Mother also had that kind of mind about him, he was as disgusting as eating a fly......

"No......" Gonggong He shook his head and said, "Since she came back from the hunting ground, the Queen Mother has killed those male pets, and now there is only that secret room left." ”

"Dig three feet into the ground, and find the passage to that secret room." Emperor Xianqing said with a dark face, "Don't let the night wind startle the snake for the time being, I want to see who is secretly in contact with the Queen Mother." ”

"Yes!" He is fair.

It's night.

Empress Dowager Xiao washed all the lead, put on a plain dress, pressed the mechanism on the wall, and the stone door slowly opened, revealing a bed and a screen, behind the screen a huge bath bucket, a row of wardrobes and a few pots of green plants were set up in the corner, and there was nothing else.

Empress Dowager Xiao walked in slowly, sat down on the edge of the bed, and said expressionlessly: "Come out!" ”
