As expected, as soon as Yang Yushi died, rumors suddenly spread in the capital.

No one dares to say that the Son of Heaven is not, and he has to criticize a few words in private: "Yang Yushi is really unlucky." It's just a letter asking for the harem to be opened, but the emperor was directly kicked out of the court. The young and vigorous Yang Yushi, where can he stand this. If you can't think about it, won't you be able to live? ”

Speaking of which, the emperor is really affectionate to the queen. It was just a twist and turn, which made the emperor Longyan furious and drove the dignified imperial history out of the court. ”

"It is said that the queen is virtuous, and it seems that they are all said for people to hear. In my opinion, the queen is narrow-minded and jealous! ”

"The good name of the queen mother is clearly ...... from the advocacy"

"Shhhh Don't talk nonsense! If someone with a heart hears it and spreads it into the palace, it will be bad. With the precedent of Yang Yushi in front of you, do you also want to end up committing suicide in shame? ”

That's how the world is.

The man behaved improperly, and most of the people who were scolded were the female relatives of the family. "A virtuous wife and a husband are less in trouble", which is regarded as a wise saying.

No one dared to criticize the Son of Heaven, so he criticized Queen Xie.

These rumors, in the end, still spread into the Jiaofang Palace.

Xu entered the palace worriedly, and told Xie Mingxi all the rumors he heard: "...... Queen Mother, the sound of movement outside is not very good now! ”

"These people who have sores on their tongues and give birth to sons are not ****, they are all chewing their tongues, saying that the queen is jealous and unvirtuous, and that the queen is ......"

Xu glanced at Xie Mingxi, swallowed back the more ugly words, and said in a low voice: "Queen Mother, the rumors are menacing, you must guard against it!" ”

The mouth of the people is more important than the Sichuan!

Of course Xie Mingxi understands this truth. The power of rumors should not be underestimated. She herself is well versed in the way of rumors hurting people and manipulating public opinion.

"Thank you grandmother for the reminder." Xie Mingxi smiled slightly, his expression calm: "I know this matter in my heart. ”

It's good to have a number.

Xu was quite knowledgeable and quickly opened the topic.

……

The next day, Empress Xie sent Xianghui to Yang's mansion and rewarded Mrs. Yang generously. and asked people to go to the Yang family to spread the word that they should respect Mrs. Yang's mother and son, and they should not be bullied at will.

A few days later, Empress Xie summoned Mrs. Yang to the palace and personally spoke to appease her.

This series of actions has won a lot of reputation for Queen Xie. It also diluted the rumors in the market.

At the same time, the Criminal Department dispatched several arresters to arrest some gangsters who were rumoring nonsense in the streets and alleys, and put them in prison with dozens of boards.

There were two officials who did not cultivate morality, chewing their tongues during private banquets, and they were also removed from their official positions.

The act of killing chickens and setting an example for monkeys quickly paid off.

Within a few days, the rumors were suppressed. No one in the court mentioned the matter of the Son of Heaven taking concubines anymore.

However, everyone knows it very well. It's just a temporary lull. Everyone was silently watching, and they were also secretly staring at the Jiaofang Palace. If Queen Xie is happy soon and gives birth to an heir, everyone will be happy.

If there is no movement within a year, no matter how the emperor reacts, there will definitely be Yang Yushi and his ilk, and then play a setback.

……

Fulin Palace.

The matter of Yang Yushi spread loudly, and although Empress Dowager Yu was lying on the couch to recuperate, she would not be unnoticed.

Empress Dowager Yu also felt puzzled in her heart.

Who wrote this?

She is now trapped in the Fulin Palace, with few available people around her, and she has very little influence on the court. The person who secretly instructed and instigated Yang Yu's history to play a twist was not from the Yu family? Or those county kings? Or is it some important minister of the court who is secretly watching the movements in the palace?

Of course, no matter who did such a thing, Empress Dowager Yu felt happy in her heart.

Xie Mingxi took the secret medicine in the palace, not to mention the prince, even the princess couldn't give birth. Xie Mingxi can resist for a while, can he still resist for a lifetime?

Sooner or later, Xie Mingxi will follow in her footsteps, have to swallow her anger, and have to retreat silently.

Sheng Hong, the son of heaven who is "deeply affectionate and meaningful", will gradually be fascinated by fresh beauty like Emperor Jianwen back then.

It is the nature of men to like beauty.

The so-called virtue of loyalty is required of women. It is a matter of course for a man to be a man, and reproduction is a top priority.

On this day, when the emperor and queen led A Luo to ask for peace, Empress Dowager Yu deliberately talked about the rumors: "There are some unpleasant rumors outside, slandering the queen." Even the mourners have heard a lot. ”

Sheng Hong raised his eyebrows slightly, and said lightly: "Some people have nothing to do, and they are secretly making trouble." The queen mother was relieved, and her sons didn't take it to heart at all. ”

Xie Mingxi smiled slightly, his eyes were full of trust and tenderness: "Thank you for the emperor's protection of the concubines." ”

Empress Dowager Yu: "......"

The two of them made it clear that they were deliberately showing affection to respond to her!

Empress Dowager Yu has been ill for so long, not to mention her weak body, and her temper has become more and more irritable and irritable. Anger rushed up, and a wrinkled, dull yellow face turned a dark red.

Xie Mingxi took two steps forward and asked with a concerned face: "Why did the queen mother suddenly have a surge of blood and flushed face?" Could it be because he was worried about his daughter-in-law? ”

"In this way, the daughter-in-law can thank the queen mother for her concern."

Empress Dowager Yu took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in her heart, and responded back with a smile: "The daughters-in-law of the mourning family are the most filial to you." Who do you hurt if you don't mourn? ”

Xie Mingxi smiled at Yan Yan: "The queen mother loves her daughter-in-law so much, and her daughter-in-law is grateful." ”

Empress Dowager Yu snorted coldly in her heart, and opened her mouth to poke Xie Mingxi's heart: "However, there is a saying that is true. Ah Luo is seven years old, and the queen should also give birth to a prince for the emperor. This great Qi can be passed on. ”

Xie Mingxi replied without changing his face: "What the queen mother said is true. ”

Empress Dowager Yu sneered in her heart, and her face showed fatigue.

The empress soon retired.

……

After everyone left, Empress Dowager Yu closed her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.

After a while, Empress Dowager Yu reopened her eyes and called Yu Qiao over.

After Zhilan died, Yuqiao fell ill. After recovering from her illness, Yu Qiao became the most useful person around Empress Dowager Yu.

Yuqiao is also in her thirties this year, with a handsome face and a slender body. It's just that there is always a lingering haze between the eyebrows. Compared with the past, Yu Qiao's words were much less. Respectfully bowed his head and stood up: "What does the Queen Mother command?" ”

Empress Dowager Yu commanded in a low voice.

Yu Qiao's pupils shrank slightly, and she subconsciously glanced at Empress Dowager Yu.

Empress Dowager Yu hasn't looked in the mirror for a long time.

Therefore, Empress Dowager Yu didn't know how hideous she was at this time.

"Yu Qiao," Empress Dowager Yu glanced over a little unpleasantly: "Did you hear what the mourning family said?" ”

Yu Qiao had no choice but to respond in a low voice.
