Since Li Jingzong has resigned, in order to reassure the emperor, he will naturally not stay in the capital anymore, but will go back to his hometown. The pear family's hometown is in Shudi, which is quite far away from Lingcheng, and it is estimated that they will not return to Lingcheng once they go. As the wife of Li Jingzong, Jiang naturally wanted to go back with him, but how could Jiang be willing to go back to a place like Sichuan, the reason why she married Li Jingzong in the first place was that she was greedy for wealth and nobility, so she refused to leave the prosperous place of Lingcheng.

So Jiang used his son and daughter as an excuse and was reluctant to leave.

Li Jingzong naturally wouldn't rest assured that he would leave Jiang's troublemaker, not to mention that he knew that Li Ling didn't like Jiang, and if he left Jiang's, he might have to cause some trouble for his two sons!

Because of the Jiang family's uproar, Li Jingzong's trip back to his hometown was delayed, but fortunately, the emperor was in a good mood because of Li Jingzong's resignation, so he didn't have any opinions on Li Jingzong's stay for a few more days.

Li Ling announced that her sister-in-law Wei had entered the palace, and as for her younger sister-in-law Gao, because of her sister Gao Baolin's affairs, Li Ling didn't want to see Gao at all.

Wei was a little frightened about his father-in-law's sudden resignation, after all, his father-in-law's smooth journey as an official was because he had a father who was the prime minister, and his father-in-law not only resigned, but also had to go back to his hometown, which would definitely affect his father-in-law's future. In the future, his two sons will take the path of the imperial examination, and his father-in-law is a military attaché, without the support of his father-in-law, his own son will definitely be affected in the future.

Wei heard Li Jianfei say that the reason why Li Jingzong resigned was completely to pave the way for the daughter in the palace, and now Wei had a lot of complaints about Li Jingzong and Li Ling, and felt that his father-in-law's heart was too biased, how could he ignore his children and grandchildren for the sake of a married daughter? Wei Shi is a little puzzled, she has been married into the pear family for some years, although most of the time she follows her husband in office, but she also stayed in the pear family for a long time, and she has not seen how good her father-in-law is to the daughter of Li Ling?

There is also the fact that her father-in-law actually wants to bring her two sons back to her hometown together, saying that he wants to teach them personally! How could she be reluctant to let her son leave her like this, but her father-in-law's decision even agreed to her father-in-law, she naturally couldn't refute it, but in this way, her resentment towards Liling was even deeper.

However, grievances are grievances, and the Wei family will not be like the Gao family, muttering loudly and annoying people in vain.

After Gao learned that Li Jingzong resigned because he helped Li Ling ascend to the throne, there was a lot of trouble in the pear mansion, she knew that she was a junior, and she was soft-spoken, and it was not easy to blame her father-in-law, so she told her mother-in-law Jiang Shi, who had been locked up in the Buddhist hall, about it.

The Jiang family really lived up to Gao's expectations, and went to Li Jingzong to make a big fuss, accusing Li Jingzong of ignoring his children and grandchildren for the sake of his daughter! Li Jingzong's face was very bad, but seeing that his eldest son Li Jianfei and younger son Li Xuan were both looking at him with reproachful eyes, Li Jingzong only felt that he was ten years old in an instant. Is it karma? So he has now become a lonely man, his son doesn't understand him, his daughter has a grudge against him, his lover has already left him, as for Jiang's wife, don't mention it!

But since it's all like this, there's no way to change it.

But I really can't stay at home anymore, in order to hide quietly, Li Jingzong has been running outside every day these days.

After Wei entered the palace, she didn't complain so much about Li Ling and Li Jingzong, and looking at the reward she brought back, her mind was lively.

It is impossible for the father-in-law's official position to be promoted again, and the emperor is quite jealous of his own family, so it is impossible to give his own title, but the imperial concubine is different! Look at the rewards you get today, which one is not a treasure, the imperial concubine has always been favored, and she can't say that she can still be a queen in the future! If the imperial concubine becomes the queen, wouldn't the eighth prince be the next emperor? Then their family will be the next emperor's foreign family, and when the time comes, what do you want to be rich and rich?

At this time, Wei suddenly felt that the father-in-law had done too much right to replace the imperial concubine with his resignation! So after Li Jianfei went down, she couldn't wait to tell Li Jianfei her analysis.

Li Jianfei listened to Wei's sentence "The empress's brother, the future emperor's uncle", and for many years after that, he wholeheartedly assisted the eighth prince, and wanted to be the uncle of the country, but throughout his life, he failed to realize this wish.

Knowing that Li Jingzong's itinerary was set for five days later, Li Ling felt a little melancholy in her heart.

It's just that, some things still have to be solved, and now it's just in advance, she, an unfilial daughter, has to fulfill her father's wish, right?

After making up her mind, Riya called Zhihe, and after a secret conversation, Zhihe went out with a heavy face.

On the ninth day of the third month of the tenth year of Tianping, the Empress Dowager Yu died.

This news came too suddenly, although the Queen Mother's face was a little bad before, but the Imperial Doctor only said that the Queen Mother was old, so her health was inevitably worse, and it was enough to recuperate. This suddenly made the Queen Mother die, which really caught many people off guard.

Huaqing Palace

"Dead?! How can it be! She didn't just eat some ......" When Yi Zhaoyi received the news that the Queen Mother had died, she was stunned.

"!" Yan He saw that Yi Zhaoyi was about to say something that should not be said, so he stopped it in time.

"How can you die in a good way?" Yi Zhaoyi's expression was very anxious, she had only been back to the palace for four months, the Queen Mother had not fully trusted her, she had not yet taken over the power in the hands of the Queen Mother, why did the Queen Mother die suddenly? ! When the Queen Mother dies, she is useless to the emperor, will the emperor directly execute her? Or send it back to Wuhua Mountain? No, no, no, she can't die, and she can't go back to Wuhua Mountain, she finally returned to the palace, and she hasn't pulled Concubine Xiao off the horse yet, so that Concubine Xiao can be punished as she deserves!

"The queen mother's death is really strange, the queen mother's body is just a little dragged down, how can she ......" Yanhe's face is not good-looking, although she likes the life of Wuhua Mountain very much, but what if the emperor chooses to directly execute Yi Zhaoyi, the person who cuckolded him? She doesn't want to die yet!

"Go check it out for Hongu! There will definitely be clues! Yi Zhaoyi gritted her teeth and said resentfully.

Hundred Flower Palace

"The old immortal is actually dead?" Concubine Xiao was also surprised by the death of the Queen Mother.

Pinlan nodded, it is estimated that everyone in the harem knows about the death of the Queen Mother.

"Hmph, it's cheaper for her!" She hasn't even settled accounts with the old witch of the Queen Mother, she is actually dead?! Hmph, that's really cheap for her.

"Niangniang, the queen mother is dead, then our plan ......" Pinlan said worriedly, they finally caught the line of the queen mother, and wanted to take advantage of the gap between the queen mother and the imperial concubine, and borrow the queen mother's hand to deal with the imperial concubine, who knew that the queen mother would die suddenly? This is detrimental to their plans.

"Dead is dead! She's going to die in the end anyway! Concubine Xiao was a little disdainful, without the Queen Mother, she would still be able to deal with Liling.

Pinlan was silent.
