Zhao Huan lost his soul and returned to the Qianqing Palace, and as soon as the gate of the Qianqing Palace was closed, the guards guarded the door. The hall was deserted.
The emperor who was imprisoned, this dynasty is still the first.
Empress Dowager Shen soon got the news and hurried from Cining Palace. Zhao Zhen just didn't let Zhao Huan go out, but others could still come in. As soon as Empress Dowager Shen entered the Qianqing Palace, she hugged Zhao Huan crying, and whimpered: "Why do you want to provoke him? You don't know his temper, you have to provoke him to be happy? Okay now, what do you want to do...... mother?"
Zhao Huan looked at the few maple trees planted at the bottom of the palace wall, the fiery red maple leaves almost merged with the palace wall, and the tips of the leaves trembled gently with the wind. He pushed away Empress Dowager Shen's hand holding him, frowned impatiently, and said, "Isn't this all taught by you?" ”
Empress Dowager Shen was stunned for a moment, raised her head to look at Zhao Huan, who was already taller than her, and her eyes were surprised: "What did you say?" ”
Zhao Huan didn't look at her, "Since I was a child, you taught me not to be subservient, to be strong, to be competitive, to get my father back, to kill King Yu, I listen to your teachings, aren't you happy?" ”
Zhao Huan's tone was cold, and Empress Dowager Shen couldn't help but feel cold and scared.
"Are you weird bit?" Her voice was raised.
Zhao Huan's brows furrowed even tighter, and he didn't say a word.
"I gave birth to you and raised you, you are my son and my heart! Am I going to hurt you? Empress Dowager Shen lowered her head and wiped her tears, "What did I do that wasn't for your good?" If you don't want to fight, will you watch yourself be trampled under your feet for the rest of your life? You're blaming me now? Is this what you are the Son of Man? ”
Zhao Huan was tired of hearing these words.
It has always been like this, he must not have any complaints, he cannot say anything against her, otherwise she will use the grace of nurturing to oppress him, saying that he is not filial, and how pitiful she is.
Pathetic? She didn't choose it herself.
If she dared to refuse King Yu at the beginning, he would not have grown up in this deep palace since he was a child, suffered from the white eyes and ridicule of the palace people, and was cultivated by her as a tool to vent his anger.
Is she for his good?
No, she just hopes to raise her eyebrows and become the "queen mother" in the real sense, not a puppet who has to look at people's faces at every turn.
When she was dominated by power, did she ever think about him?
In the past, when he heard the Queen Mother say these words, Zhao Huan was mostly silent, but today his mood was extremely bad, and he was dozens of times more irritable than usual when he heard these words. He raised his eyes and looked at the Queen Mother with a sneer: "Do you not want me to be trampled under my feet, or do you not want yourself?" ”
"You ......" The Queen Mother looked at her son in disbelief with round eyes, ashamed and angry: "How can you say such a thing!" ”
Zhao Huan sneered twice, stopped paying attention to the Queen Mother, and entered the hall and bolted the door.
The Empress Dowager's angry scolding was isolated from the door, and Zhao Huan walked to the dormitory, feeling the coolness coming out of the ground with every step. His eyes swept over the palace people in the hall with a hollow eye, and the palace people lowered their heads in a trembling manner.
He remembered that when he was very young, he heard the palace people talk about his mother, saying that his mother was from a humble background, and she was favored by the first emperor because of that face - because she was born like the first queen. also said a lot of foul language, saying how his mother charmed the first emperor and used all kinds of unpopular methods.
As for the first emperor, he has Bai Yueguang in his heart, and he is still thinking about his younger sister-in-law, Princess Yu, and he has no mercy for his mother.
When he was a child, he didn't believe it, thinking that his father would not be so wild. A promiscuous monarch can't have such a humble background for his mother.
It wasn't until he grew up that he realized how stupid he was.
So he is destined not to get his father's love and is destined to become a bargaining chip for his mother to fight for power. He hated his mother's flattering habits, her inconsistency and hypocrisy, and her strong desire to control him.
He wanted to be free.

Since that time when the Empress Dowager Shen had a big quarrel with Zhao Huan, the Empress Dowager Shen has never come to see her son, and has devoted all her energy to liaising with the ministers of the imperial court. The ministers were summoned to Cining Palace at every turn, and the door was closed for an hour or two, leaving only close people to serve.
In the past few days, it is inevitable that there will be some rumors in the DPRK and China.
The main reason is that the Empress Dowager Shen calls people are all young and talented, and the old and ugly ones have no chance to enter Cining Palace. But if they go and ask those who are called, they will say that they are counsellors.
The Queen Mother ignores the government and politics, what state affairs can be discussed? This is obviously a pretext.
And there were rumors in the palace that the Empress Dowager Shen was able to get holy favor often because of her talent and kung fu in bed. Everyone can't help but guess in that direction.
Some ministers couldn't help but come to Zhao Zhen, hoping that he could manage it, and the queen mother would mess up the palace, and the face of the dynasty would be lost!
Zhao Zhen also said that he would deal with it.
He summoned the courtiers who had been summoned by the Queen Mother to Beizhen Fusi and tried them separately one by one. The torture of Beizhen Fusi is not something that ordinary people can bear, and these people all vomited out in two clicks.
It was indeed the Queen Mother who recruited them as guests in order to win them over, and several of them went to the Queen Mother's bed.
"The prince spared me! I was fascinated by the queen mother for a while, but I never wanted to betray the prince! My loyalty to the prince can be seen by the sun and the moon! "One of them.
Several other people also begged for mercy with you and me. Zhao Zhen glanced at Jiang Qibai, and Jiang Qibai ordered the jailer to pull these apart.
"Adultery with the Queen Mother, do you know what kind of crime this is?" Zhao Zhen lowered his eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled coldly.
The man he looked at was silent.
"The crime of killing the head." He spat out the words softly. A few people heard it very clearly.
Decollation......
"However, this kind of immoral thing should not be publicized too much, you can cut it off yourself." Zhao Zhen nodded to the ground and turned to leave.
When Zhao Zhen walked out of prison, Jiang Qibai clasped his arms to his chest, walked to the middle with a smile, and said, "Did you hear that?" Cut it off yourself. ”
Several people cried and grabbed the ground, begging Lord Jiang to spare their dog's life.
Jiang Qibai was unmoved, sat down in the chair, shook his head at a few people, and said, "Peony flowers die, and ghosts are also romantic." You died unjustly, why are you so spineless? ”
He smiled coldly: "When you go to the queen mother's bed, you should have expected your fate." Regret it now? It's late. ”
The poisonous wine was about to come up, but several people refused to drink it, and the commotion was terrible. Jiang Qibai had no choice but to ask someone to pour it down for them, and as for this corpse, Jiang Qibai was a little embarrassed.

Early morning.
Empress Dowager Shen sat in front of the mirror and made up, her fingers twisting a few fine lines under the corners of her eyes.
She is no longer a twenty-eight-year-old girl, and the twilight of beauty is really an irritating thing.
This period of indulgence has brought a little joy to her life, so that her originally gloomy eyes have become a little more radiant, and her face has become a little younger, which makes her very happy, and she wonders who to call today?
It was also unexpectedly that things had come to this point. At first, she just wanted to recruit the minister to help her son lift the ban, but the other party made a few flirtatious words, but she couldn't bear it, so she ......
To put it bluntly, it's also something you and I want, she likes them a lot, and she has had enough of this nun-like life. They also promised to help Huan'er lift the ban.
Empress Dowager Shen picked a silk hairpin on her bun, pink, and the color of the liner was very good. She continued to organize herself slowly when she heard a commotion outside.
It looks like a guard has barged in.
Enraged, she got up and went out to open the door, and the ensuing scene was something she could never have imagined.
Several dead bodies were lined up, and Empress Dowager Shen recognized their faces, which were the ministers who had a love for her.
Her face was bloodied, and she took two steps back and nearly fell.
How so?
Who killed them?
Yi Xuan slowly walked out of an inconspicuous place, and looked at the Empress Dowager Shen coldly, and the Empress Dowager Shen's eyes were focused on these dead bodies, but she didn't see her.
Until Yixuan came to her.
"They ended up like this, all because of you, the Queen Mother." Yixuan's voice was very cold: "There is such a scandal in the palace, what does the Queen Mother say?" ”
Mrs. Shen didn't have time to feel sorry for this group of dead people, and at this moment she was even more worried about her own safety. She looked at Wen Yixuan's delicate girl-like face, and stepped back step by step, eager to run away.
"What do you want to do?" She panicked and hugged a vase as a defensive gesture.
Yixuan stood against the light, frowning and looking disgusted: "They are dead, the previous matter is over, the prince and I don't want to pursue it anymore." But if there is a next ......"
"Not anymore!" Empress Dowager Shen was extremely emotional: "There will be no next time!" ”
"That's good." Yi Xuan's voice was cold and indifferent, and she said: "The Queen Mother is immoral, it is not appropriate to stay with Your Majesty, the Queen Mother will choose a day to live in the palace." ”
"Where's the palace?"
Yixuan had already walked to the door, and paused when she heard the words, "Datong." ”
*
Regarding the scandal of Empress Dowager Shen, Yixuan and Zhao Zhen discussed it again and again but decided to hide it.
First, the face of the royal family will be lost, I am sorry for the ancestors of the Zhao family, and secondly, Zhao Huan, this kid is too rebellious, for his father has already made a fuss with them, if you add a revenge for killing your mother, it is hard to imagine what it will become.
Therefore, the life of the Empress Dowager Shen should be kept.
Datong is far away from the capital, the palace there is actually built by the emperor when he was lucky, it is deserted all the year round, it is not called the "palace" at all, and the houses of the rich people are bigger than there. Moreover, Datong is Zhao Zhen's territory, and Empress Dowager Shen can't play tricks if she wants to.
It's not that they don't know what Empress Dowager Shen usually instigated Zhao Huan, but they just don't want to care. This move just made Zhao Huan suffer a little less.
Zhao Huan was placed under house arrest in the Qianqing Palace, but he didn't know anything about the outside world. He also knew his mother's dealings with those courtiers.
Zhao Huan didn't expect that Empress Dowager Shen could be so ridiculous.
The words he heard from the palace people when he was a child came to his mind again, and he was in a gloomy mood to the extreme, feeling that now the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were laughing at him behind his back.
"What do you think? She betrayed you. Zhao Huan sneered at a figure in the corner.
