Empress Dowager Shen is not the daughter of a noble family, the Shen family is in Jizhou, a family of half-businessmen and half-officials, her father bought an official for the glory of the ancestors, and because of his daughter's beautiful name, he moved Jizhou, and was selected by the king of Jizhou to be a side concubine.

Although the Queen Mother was a delicate young lady, she was the most easy-going and amiable, and she treated things fairly and justly. After the death of the old princess, she was corrected, and soon the old princess also left, she was able to raise the child alone and run the whole family, not because she had the ability and skill, but because the family liked this master and followed her with all their hearts.

Even Shen Zhe, an orphan under the fence, was treated well by the people of the palace because of his aunt, naturally when he was young, he was inevitably scolded and beaten with his brother, even if his cousin quickly became a stable teenager because of too much age difference, he was still a child in the eyes of the queen mother after all, and the brothers got up and lay together, and he was on his side when his brother was trained in the past, which was the most common thing.

It's just that now, my cousin is the emperor, and ten years have passed since he was a fifteen-year-old hot-blooded boy, and he has followed his brother step by step, Shen Zhe has become more and more aware of the distance between him and Xiang Ye, and above his brother and brother, there are more important kings and ministers.

Shen Zhe still insisted on retreating, and the Queen Mother complained a few words and didn't stop her, only waiting for her cousin to leave, Xiang Ye blamed her mother: "Mother, my son is the emperor anyway, even in front of Zhe'er, you should also maintain your son's dignity." ”

The Queen Mother poked his head gently, she loved and hated her son, she had to hold the dignity and stability of the Queen Mother in front of people, but she still looked at her son in her heart as she did back then.

Xiang Ye brought tea to his mother and asked disdainfully: "Qiu Min'er went to the Longevity Palace to complain?" ”

The Queen Mother sighed: "What kind of complaint, people didn't say a word, but in front of the eunuchs and palace maids, you forced the queen to almost fall into the pool of too liquid, this will be known to the whole womb, why don't you just pick up the person and throw it down?" ”

Xiang Ye frowned and said, "Queen Mother, I did that for a reason. ”

"Why?"

"For the sake of ......" Xiang Ye could have said that it was for the leakage of the secret letter of Qiangshui Guan, but he himself had already affirmed that it was impossible for Min'er to see the letter.

"Ye'er, my mother doesn't know anything about government politics, but I know that you hate the queen's father, so you must be on guard against her and her father passing it on privately and helping her father spy on you. But the entire Shangyang Hall is full of your people, Min'er has been in Yuanzhou for ten years, and there is not even a familiar person in the capital, where do you ask her to send the news? The Queen Mother said earnestly, "If you hadn't chosen someone to be the queen, Min'er would be good in Yuanzhou, and the old lady would choose a family for her to marry in the future. ”

"My son didn't bully her?" Xiang Ye subconsciously quibbled for himself.

"Not yet? It's been three days since the wedding, and you went to Concubine Shu's house in a row, did you do it for Prime Minister Qiu, or did you deliberately bully the queen? The Queen Mother sighed, "Don't say anything else, if one day in the future you see Min'er is good, love her and love her, what you do now, you can't make up for it when the time comes." If Min'er doesn't care, it is generosity, and if you keep it in your heart, it will be a lifetime of grievances. When I married into the palace, if I was treated like this, I really wanted to die. ”

The emperor obviously couldn't calm down: "Mother, there won't be anything like that." ”

The Queen Mother asked: "Ye'er, Ruoyao has been gone for ten years, if you are really an infatuated person, you tell me, where did so many women in the palace come from?" ”

Xiang Ye frowned, his face tightened, it seemed that because the person in front of him was his mother, he didn't dare to attack or move, but it seemed that he was said to be weak.

The Queen Mother looked at her son lovingly: "The queen is innocent, whether she is the daughter of the prime minister or your queen, she has no choice." If Min'er is really bad, your mother will not force you to be good to others, but now you tell your mother what she can do wrong in two or three days? My mother only saw you bullying others inexplicably, like an ignorant boy, and taking pleasure in bullying girls, you are really just having fun, but are you feeling better in your own heart? ”

"Queen Mother, don't say any more." Xiang Ye turned his back, he didn't necessarily have to say, because the queen was wearing white clothes and he was angry, in fact, even he didn't understand why it became like this, the first time he saw her in the Shangyang Palace, he was full of anxiety and impatience, and his resolute and stubborn and even indifferent eyes could always hook his heart.

But her mother said that Qiu Min'er had a good temperament, yes, not only her mother, but the eunuchs and palace maids of Shangyang Hall also said that the queen had a good temperament, but her good temperament, why didn't she see half of it?

Zhi'er Mo Ruomu, the Queen Mother said: "You treat people like that, and you still want people to smile when they see you, Ye'er, you are not a narrow-minded person, why treat a woman like this?" If you don't want to say it, and if you don't want to treat her well, then you don't pay attention to it, and don't do self-righteous stupid things at every turn. My mother said to you, don't underestimate us women. ”

The emperor couldn't cry or laugh: "Mother, the more you talk about it, the farther you go, when did your son despise women?" ”

The Queen Mother said: "Then you don't bully the queen anymore, if you don't like it, you can leave it behind, you love to go to the concubine's house and the mother won't stop you, but don't do that to the queen again, what a poor child?" ”

In the Shangyang Palace, Min'er had already changed into a lake-green cardigan skirt, and the white clothes were sorted out and put together, and the palace people from the Shangfu Bureau were brought in for questioning, and they trembled and fell on the ground to explain the reason.

It turned out that the palace people who had sent the clothes before didn't know that there were these white skirts and smocks in those clothes, etc., and when they took them out and saw them, they thought that they were put in by Lord Shangfu, and the queen liked it at a glance, so they didn't dare to squeak. But Zhang Shangfu said that it had nothing to do with her, after she led people to prepare the clothes, no one touched them, and she didn't know how these white clothes got in.

Qingya asked unceremoniously: "As the head of the Shangfu Bureau, why don't you come to serve Niangniang to change clothes?" If you come, there will be no such thing, the clothes you sent, the mother will naturally wear it with trust, and now something happens, the mother will hold it for you, but you have pushed it all away? ”

Min'er looked at them quietly, her face distorted with embarrassment, and she could squeeze out tears.
