358. The Empress seizes power

The fat woman was coaxed into a smile. She stroked the bead hairpin on her sideburns and smiled proudly.

"Where did the kid come from, so cute and talking. That's it, I don't care about this kid. The fat lady walked away.

Tang Lingyun breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Xiao Shizi behind him, and comforted him and said that it was okay, hurry up and go home.

Before he could turn around and leave, he heard Xiao Shizi shout, "Big brother!" ”。

Tang Lingyun was taken aback, Xiao Shizi explained that he admired his intelligence and courage just now, and he decided to recognize him as his eldest brother.

Tang Lingyun hesitated a little, thought about it, and felt that it was better than someone always calculating himself in the future. Besides, looking at him like this, if you don't promise him, maybe he won't give up, just accept him as a little brother!

Xiao Shizi happily helped him carry his schoolbag, just like his scholar.

Although the crown princess was appointed as the queen, she did not have much real power, and she was bullied by the queen mother everywhere because she was kind at heart.

But she never told the prince that she knew that he was busy with official business, and she couldn't bear to bother him with harem trivialities.

"Niangniang, you're too aggrieved." Her personal maid Bai Zhi couldn't look at it, and she was upset for her.

The queen smiled, she didn't care about any of that. As long as the emperor is safe and sound, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and all the country and the people are safe, she will be content.

"E-niang has a strong personality, I just have to endure it." She arranged her clothes and chatted with the maidservant.

Who knows, these words happened to be heard by the Queen Mother outside the door. This woman was already angry that the Queen Mother did not choose a concubine, but now she heard that she was talking about herself behind her back, and she was even more angry.

"The Queen Mother?" The maidservant on the side naturally heard these words, and asked her tremblingly if she wanted to go in.

The Queen Mother glared at her angrily and then brushed her sleeves away.

And all this, the queen knows nothing. She didn't expect that the Queen Mother would be wary of her everywhere, and she didn't expect that her unintentional words would fall into the mouth of others.

The Queen Mother, who returned to Shoukang Palace, became more and more angry the more she thought about it. Originally, the emperor was so filial and always obeyed his words. It's a pity that what I didn't expect was that since marrying her as a woman, the emperor has changed as if he was a different person, and he didn't even agree to the murder of Xiao Wenxuan last time, and he didn't hesitate to go to his palace to make a big noise.

"How can it be!" The more she thought about it, the more angry she became, and finally slapped the table in anger.

Because the force was too great, the tea cup on the table was shaken.

The maid was so frightened that she didn't dare to come out, so she stood aside and whispered to persuade her to calm her anger.

The Queen Mother gasped, thinking about how to fix this woman. Even if she is the queen now, this harem still has the final say.

This emperor and the emperor played chess together, and the two hadn't killed a game for a long time. The emperor's body is not as good as day by day, and many times he is resting in bed. The emperor didn't dare to disturb, so he could only come over to accompany him when he was in good spirits.

Under the pavilion in the imperial garden, the palace ladies have already arranged the chessboard. With a breeze, it's a good time to play chess and drink tea.

After a round of fighting, the Emperor Taishang looked at himself as a defeated general of the emperor's subordinates, and nodded thoughtfully.

"Old. People can't accept old age! The Emperor thumped his leg and shook his head gently.

Who doesn't know that he was beaten down on horseback at the beginning, but now he can't even climb on a horse, which shows that the twilight of heroes is a matter of time and time. and playing chess, the prince was not his opponent before, but now he can't make more than 30 moves under him, which shows that he is indeed not as good as before.

The emperor laughed, what did he say.

"Father, you are not old, you are long live, long live, long live." He smiled and comforted his father.

The Emperor smiled, these compliments are just deceptions, how can you believe it. Birth, old age, sickness and death, human nature, don't care too much and entangle.

He looked at his son and saw that he had become more and more calm and capable. Ever since he relinquished the throne, he has been able to show his skills. I heard that he governed the country in an orderly manner and was very loved by the people.

When the father and son were talking happily with each other, they heard the palace maid outside talking about something.

"Poor queen mother, I heard that she came out of Shoukang Palace today, and she touched her tears along the way, I am afraid that she will be troubled by the Queen Mother again." The voice of a little palace maid is clearly visible.

"But no, the queen has no real power, the queen mother scolded her everywhere, and asked her to copy the scriptures and white scrolls within three days!" It's another voice,

Even if you can't see anyone, you can guess that it is two little maids hiding behind the rockery and talking about it. Their voices were not loud, but because there was silence around them, their conversation reached the emperor's ears word for word.

The Emperor Taishang frowned, these new palace maids are becoming more and more unruly. The little emperor was even more angry, if he hadn't heard it with his own ears, he really couldn't believe it.

While he hated his mother's domineering and autocraticism, he also felt sorry for his wife. When she was the crown prince, she followed her with all her might, and now she has finally become the master of the harem, and she still has to endure the oppression of the queen mother, which is simply unreasonable.

"Father, the child is not strictly supervised. This asked Gonggong Zhang to rectify the palace rules. The emperor stood up and saluted.

The Emperor waved his hand, signaling him to sit alone for a while while while he was busy.

After the emperor left, the emperor said to Gonggong Liu, who was in front of him.

"The crown prince is already the emperor, she is still so arrogant and ignorant, sooner or later she will suffer a big loss!"

Father-in-law Liu was silent, with a flattering smile on his face.

The queen mother has always been high-flying, relying on the meritorious ministers of her mother's Song court, to do whatever she wants in the harem. The emperor was afraid that she would cover the sky with one hand, so he favored Concubine Xiang. In fact, to put it bluntly, she just wants to curb her power and prevent her from becoming dominant.

"It's a pity, I intended to spare her life, but she resolutely died for her son." The Emperor sighed, pinched the chess pieces in his hand, and looked into the distance with a resentful gaze.

I heard that Xiao Wenxuan has made great achievements in the frontier, but he has not lived up to his good intentions. In this way, it will be easy to explain when I see her again in a hundred years.

The emperor decided to have a good talk with the queen mother. Before, I was busy with government affairs and didn't care about harem matters. He thought that the harem women could live in peace, without fighting or grabbing. Unexpectedly, the seemingly calm surface hides so much dirt.

"Go to Shoukang Palace!" He waved his hand at his father-in-law beside him, and a group of people immediately surrounded him and walked towards the Queen Mother's palace.

The Queen Mother is drinking tea in the house, it is the West Lake Longjing sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the taste is very good......
