Concubine Shu looked at Liang Yue in surprise, and a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes. Does she mean to give up grace? Could it be that he really annoyed the emperor on the southern tour and was looking for the best way out? However, if the emperor was really annoyed, he should find an excuse to put Liang Yue outside the palace, how could he let her go back to the palace?

Situ Ning obviously didn't believe it, her phoenix eyes were slightly raised, and she said with a smile: "Then the palace is waiting to see how sincere your heart is, go to Cining Palace to report, don't let the queen mother think that the palace is obstructing." ＂

Liang Yue kept kneeling on the ground, and Situ Ning didn't shout a word, until he finished saying this, he waved his hand and said, "Go." ＂

Kowtowed again, and Liang Yue got up calmly and retreated out. Walking on the road, the palace people around her came and went, and they all bowed their heads and saluted when they saw her. Liang Yue was distracted as she walked, thinking about the queen's tone and expression just now, and couldn't help but be a little curious.

Situ Ning's attitude has changed a lot, he was still gentle in the past, but when he came back this time, he saw that he was a lot more aggressive. During the time when I was not in the palace, there should have been a lot of things going on, right? Looking at Concubine Liang and Concubine Shu, they were not so-for-tat, they sat together and talked and laughed freely. She seems to be missing out on a lot of things.

Dressed in plain clothes and entering Cining Palace, the Queen Mother has been waiting for a long time, and when she saw Liang Yue, the Queen Mother smiled and said, "It's rare and suitable for you." There are Su Hai Buddha beads here, you can see which one you like. ＂

Liang Yue followed the direction pointed by the Queen Mother, and saw three sets of utensils for worshiping the Buddha on the sandalwood table. Although plain, they are also exquisite.

"Concubines can do whatever they want. Liang Yue said in a low voice.

The Queen Mother glanced at him, and then smiled. Liang Yue has always been the most popular with her, atmospheric and sensible. If she hadn't insisted on serving her, the Queen Mother felt that the future queen would not necessarily be replaced.

Liang Yue's room was arranged in the Shouyun Hall where the Queen Mother lived, and after cleaning up, Liang Yue learned to help the Queen Mother to chant Buddha.

The life of the Queen Mother is actually very simple, when she gets up in the morning and finishes breakfast, she kneels in front of the Buddha statue and recites the beads for an hour. Then the little lords from all sides came to see them, and many of them were new to the palace, standing below with anxiety. Liang Yue helped to deal with them, and at night she could light incense and continue to chant Buddha after waiting for the Queen Mother to change her clothes.

These are too simple for Liangyue, and they are not too cumbersome, so try it, the Queen Mother feels that Liangyue has done a very good job, and she is more intimate than the grandmother who has served for many years, and she can't help but be happy at the moment, patting Liangyue's hand and saying, "You are really a clever person." ＂

Liang Yue lowered her head and smiled, standing behind the Queen Mother to help her tie her hair. The comb was slowly combed, and a lot of broken hair was torn off. Liang Yue stretched out her hand, and a few white hairs on it were dazzling, and she paused for a long time.

The Queen Mother is only nearly forty, does she have so many gray hairs?

Xu saw Liang Yue's expression from the mirror, and the Queen Mother smiled: "It's not okay to be old, the years are passing away quickly, and the mourning family is finally going to be white." ＂

"Queen Mother. Liang Yue shouted in a low voice, but she didn't know what to say. The Queen Mother smiled in the mirror and motioned for her to continue combing.

Tomorrow is the day of the pilgrimage to Fanbang, the Queen Mother is used to the cool moon by her side, so it is natural, the Queen Mother said: "Tomorrow you go with me to see the envoys of Fanbang, you are smart and clever, and it is not necessary to help anything." ＂

"Thank you, Queen Mother. Liang Yue answered, tied her hair up behind her, and helped her to the bed.

Originally, Liang Yue was just going to wait outside the palace to observe when Fanbang came to the court, but the Queen Mother was willing to take her in, so it was naturally better. Situ Ning was responsible for preparing the meals for the banquet and the decoration of the main hall, so she naturally had a lot more opportunities to come into contact with people. Prime Minister Mo left someone in the palace to watch the movements of Kunning Palace, and only let her pay attention to the things at the banquet.

However, on the day of the banquet, when Liang Yue helped the Queen Mother to walk to the main hall, she saw General Situ and Fanbang envoys all the way to the main hall from a distance, talking and walking towards the main hall, it seemed that they met by chance outside, but the Queen Mother's expression was not very good-looking, so she only pinched Liang Yue's hand and motioned her to continue walking.

Recently, the palace has begun to be a little uneasy, and some faint gossip has slowly spread. Liang Yue stayed in Cining Palace, naturally she didn't hear much, but she always felt that there was a different atmosphere in the palace, and the worry between the Queen Mother's eyebrows became deeper and deeper.

It would be good if the emperor came back at this time, the power of the Queen Mother and Prime Minister Mo Cheng could not completely stop the actions of the Situ family. The atmosphere in the palace is becoming more and more strange, and there is always a feeling that the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings.

Full of splendor, the Queen Mother is supported by Liang Yue to sit on the main seat, on the left hand side is the queen's phoenix seat, and Liang Yue is standing on the right hand side of the Queen Mother. Tables and chairs were set up at the bottom, and there were palace maids dressed in neon clothes and dancing with silk and bamboo. The envoy sat in the first seat under the left hand, General Situ sat in the second seat, Mo Zhiyuan squinted his eyes and drank on the right hand, and the ministers below were talking, and the laughter of the envoys of Fanbang could be heard from time to time.

The Queen Mother had a little headache, and it was estimated that it was the reason why she didn't sleep well last night, Liang Yue looked at her rubbing her forehead, frowned slightly, and whispered: "The Queen Mother?" ”

The Queen Mother raised her head, glanced at her with a smile, and said, "It's okay, when this song and dance is over, it should be the beginning, and the mourning family will not be able to rest until at least half the time." ”

Liang Yue was silent, turned her head to look at the dancing palace concubine, and her mind went blank for a moment. The woman sitting next to her is her biological mother, but unfortunately, she recognizes her, but she doesn't know her, she is a daughter, but now she is treated as her son's concubine, which is really a strange fate.

"I heard that the emperor of the apocalypse has not returned to the palace yet." As soon as the sound of silk and bamboo stopped, the envoy looked at the queen mother on the seat and said: "Originally, I had prepared a lot of things to present to the emperor, but now I can't let Your Majesty personally experience the heart of our country." ”

The Queen Mother smiled decently: "Don't worry, when the emperor comes back, the mourning family will convey your intentions meticulously, and the emperor will remember the good things about your country." ”

The envoy laughed, gave a thumbs up and said: "The queen mother of the apocalypse is also the golden phoenix among women, the emperor is not there, and the queen mother can also hold up half of the sky." ”

The Queen Mother maintained a decent smile, did not answer this sentence, but raised her glass and said, "Come, let's raise a glass together first, and welcome the envoys of Fanbang from afar." ”

The ministers got up one after another and served wine to celebrate. The envoy was very happy, and also picked up the wine and said: "The Celestial Empire is very hospitable, and the minister is very honored." ”

The Queen Mother smiled and drank wine, everyone returned to their seats, and the envoys of Fanbang were quite interested, and said to the Queen Mother: "I came to the Heavenly Empire to see it, only to find that the women of the Heavenly Dynasty are all women who do not let the eyebrows, the queen mother is beautiful and fragrant, and the queen mother is thousands of phoenixes." Compared to you, the women of my country are much more rude. ”

"Where." The Queen Mother put down the cup and said kindly: "Isn't the Cha clan, the descendant of Fanbang, also a famous virtuous queen?" ”

The Kecha clan is equivalent to the queen mother in Fanbang, and she single-handedly promoted the Khan of Fanbang to the throne, and she has contributed a lot to the stability of Fanbang for more than ten years.

When the envoy heard this, he nodded again and again: "Kecha is a person we respect, she thinks about my Fanbang wholeheartedly, although the Khan is not her bloodline, but also for the sake of Fanbang, she gave up her son and cultivated the Khan to become a talent." ”

As soon as these words came out, the hall, which was still a little loud, suddenly fell silent. The Queen Mother was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "Yes, the current Khan is not the son of the Kecha clan, and this mourning family doesn't know." ”

The envoy smiled, stood up and said, "I cherish my talents, so I don't care too much about blood. But the royal bloodline of the Apocalypse seems to be very cared about, and when I arrived at the post station yesterday, I heard someone gossiping, and I didn't think it was true. ”

The Queen Mother's heart sank, and she also thought of what this person wanted to say, but in this situation, how could she make him say it?

"The mourning family thinks..."

"What kind of gossip?" General Situ interrupted the Queen Mother's words, and his expression became serious: "Gossip about the royal bloodline, this can't be ignored, if anyone makes rumors, they must be severely punished." ”

The Queen Mother pursed her lips and watched the envoy continue to speak, and the uneasiness in her heart became stronger and stronger.

"This..."The envoy glanced at the Queen Mother, and smiled awkwardly: "The minister just heard passers-by say that His Majesty Emperor Mingxuan is not the Queen Mother's own son, but how can the people believe these words, just listen to them." ”

Liang Yue's heart was stunned, and her fingers clenched slightly. The Queen Mother had a cold face, and a glass of wine smashed into the middle of the lobby.

With a "snap", the entire hall fell silent again. The Queen Mother leaned back in her chair and said coldly: "How can you say this kind of thing here." The rumors have reached a point where they have gotten messed up, didn't Jing Zhaoyin care? ”

General Situ paused, raised his head and said, "Empress Dowager, the minister has only recently begun to hear such rumors. This is not conducive to the stability of my apocalypse, we must find out the source and punish it severely. ”

"The mourners know." The Queen Mother sneered, glanced at everyone below, and said, "Does the emperor mourn his own family, and he still doesn't understand this mourning family?" Some people with ill intentions have released rumors, which are bound to shake the hearts of the people and ruin our apocalypse. If the mourning family finds out who is behind the ghost, it will definitely connect the nine clans! ”

The ministers were silent, looking at the angry appearance of the Queen Mother, they couldn't help but bow their heads. General Situ paused for a while, and then said: "To stop the rumors, the best way is to verify, otherwise after a long time, the fake will become true." It's a pity that the emperor is not there, otherwise he can still drip blood to test his relatives to spread the world. ”

The Queen Mother was stunned, looked at General Situ and said: "General, this is a joke, and a blood test will inevitably make people feel that the royal family does have improper blood." The mourning family sat up straight, and there was absolutely no shame against the emperor. ”

General Situ got up, walked to the middle of the hall and knelt down and said, "The minister understands that it is precisely because the Queen Mother is worthy of her heart that she is not afraid of inspection." It's just that it will take a month for the emperor to come back, and I'm afraid the gossip in this month can't be stopped. ”

Liang Yue lowered her head and thought about things, but the Queen Mother was pale and speechless. Originally, she hoped that the emperor would come back soon, but in this situation, she would rather the emperor visit for a few more months.

"Rumors stop at the wise, and the people are ignorant, so it's better to let the facts speak." A voice came from the door of the main hall, and immediately after, the bright yellow dragon robe shocked everyone's eyes.
