Chapter 136: Confrontation

The queen's face here is not very good-looking at this time.

To be precise, as soon as Zong Zheng Zexiu came to the East Palace today, she felt that something bad had happened, because although he and the current Queen Mother are not biological mothers and sons, the way of doing things can really be said to be the same, no matter what he does, he will not discuss with her before deciding, but will notify her after deciding, sometimes not even notifying.

In the end, it is from others that he will know something, and if she doesn't ask after him, he will definitely not take the initiative to explain it to her.

Moreover, he has not been to the East Palace for more than a month, and today he suddenly came over, and sent someone to send a lot of rare objects.

He is the emperor and the lord of a country, so naturally he will not be a traitor or a thief, but it is also said that he will not go to the Three Treasures Hall if he has nothing to do, and he always has something to "inform" her, so he came over.

And the fact that this large box of treasures was sent meant that he came to her not because of anything that would cause her trouble, or that there was something that needed to trouble her, but because of ......

He did something sorry for her, and it was a very serious thing, and he felt guilty, so he did it.

Of course, guilt is guilt, and he definitely doesn't want to make it up to her, but just.... I want to use this method to comfort myself and make myself feel at ease.

He was too arrogant and conceited, he always was, he was, he is, and he can't change it in the future.

Marrying such a person enjoys supreme power, but who really understands her?

Fortunately, her heart is still her own and does not belong to anyone, so she will not live too tired and miserable.

"Where did the prince go, you don't have to tell the concubine, the concubine doesn't care if he is in the palace or in Yaojing." Empress Yan held the teacup with a slight hand, and said calmly.

Zong Zhenghua is clearly her biological son, and she is also the queen, but she wants to call him the prince, which shows how estranged she is.

She doesn't care at all about where Zong Zheng Huashu has gone, so if you want to say that she cares about him, that is...... Just be alive.

After all, it's not easy to be alive.

Moreover, in this crisis-ridden palace, it is not necessarily good, although it is dangerous outside, but how can the palace be a peaceful and peaceful place?

Never.

"You still haven't changed at all." Zong Zheng Zexiu smiled.

She is still like this, she doesn't care about her only son at all.

But the more she didn't care, the more Zong Zhengze Xiu felt that she actually cared too much, and in order to protect him, she had to pretend not to care.

Isn't it?

She has been pretending for more than 20 years, and if she doesn't continue to pretend, won't her previous efforts be wasted?

"He's not a kid anymore." Empress Yan said indifferently, "Besides, isn't he also the emperor's son?" Naturally, the emperor won't let him have an accident, so what must the concubines worry about? ”

has been like this for so many years, although Zongzheng Huashu is her only son, where does the mother-son relationship between her and him come from? She never did anything as a mother other than giving birth to him, and she never participated in his growth and life.

Mother and child? But there is no emotion between them, so why do they reluctantly get together? Since it's not necessary, then there's no need to force it.

"That's different, I have many sons under my knees, and you, only one Shu'er." Zong Zheng Zexiu seems to be unrelenting.

Even so, Yan's expression did not change in the slightest, it was still the same...... Indifferent, as if it has nothing to do with itself, the wind is light.

I don't know if it's too sitting, or if I really don't care at all.

"What is the emperor talking about, the concubines and the emperor are married to each other, so ah, how many princes and princesses the emperor has, how many sons and daughters the concubines have......" Yan covered his mouth and smiled, a dark light flashed in his eyes, and it was fleeting, "The other princes are like ..... to their concubines The emperor is like the queen mother, the emperor, do you say? ”

Not really!

Zong Zheng Zexiu's hand holding the teacup was tightened, and his face turned blue and pale, obviously displeased.

"Whatever the queen says, there is naturally some truth, where can I say what is not coming." After a long time, Zong Zhengze Xiu stubbornly squeezed out such a sentence.

Which pot is not opened and which pot is mentioned, she is always like this, it was before, it is now, and it will not be changed in the future.

He knew her too well.

Why not?

Two people who know each other "too well", two people who seem to be the most "close" in their relationship, but they look at each other unpleasantly, and the Cold War has never changed for many years.

It's because they see it too clearly, so two people have nothing attractive to each other, let alone feelings.

The best result is nothing more than - you take your Yangguan Road, I cross my single-plank bridge, and everyone will not interfere with the river water, and there will be nothing to do with each other.

But Zong Zheng Zexiu always likes to do something for her, big or small, she treats him as unintentional, as long as he doesn't take the initiative to tell her, even if she hears any rumors, she will rarely run to ask him.

What is happening today......

Yan smiled, did he come too early this time? Zong Zheng Zexiu had just left Yaojing on his front foot, and he came running.

In the past, he would have to wait for ten days or so until she noticed that something was wrong, or when the matter had almost spread, and had probably reached her ears, before he could possibly say anything.

The fact that he had come, and that it was different from his usual appearance, showed that he had not just come to tell her about it, but ...... He had other things to do, and maybe needed her help.

Of course, he probably wouldn't tell her about this, the one that needed her help, just a temptation.

After all, if you want to take advantage of someone else, you have to tell someone in advance how you want to use him and her, and then let that person promise you to be used by you willingly?

Apparently impossible.

"The emperor doesn't have to use these words to prevaricate the concubines, the concubines are a female generation, how can you men have weight in their words, don't you know if the concubines are not...... Or more directly, whether it's right or not, whether it makes sense or not, isn't it the emperor who has the final say? Yan smiled reluctantly, but at least it was polite.

"The queen has always been so thoughtful when she speaks."

"Your Majesty, Niangniang......" Cailing's voice came from far and near, temporarily interrupting the conversation between Zong Zheng Zexiu and Yan.

Zong Zheng Zexiu was displeased.

Yan's face was expressionless.

"Why are you so reckless?!" Zong Zheng Zexiu frowned and said unhappily.

This palace maid is familiar, so she is definitely not the palace maid of this East Palace. Because he rarely comes to the East Palace, he basically only sees the Yan family, and other palace maids and eunuchs are basically not waiting by his side, so he is not familiar.

And this familiar one, probably......

is in Wuxi Palace, serving by the side of the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother, in fact, is not surprised. If it had been before, she would have found out that Zong Zheng Huashu was not in the palace a long time ago, but she was busy these days, and she forgot to keep an eye on it when she was busy.
