Ling Zhao hurriedly knelt down and said to the Empress Dowager: "The concubines failed to restrain their families, let them do foolish things, and cause chaos to the emperor and the court, which is also the fault of the concubines, and begged the Empress Dowager to condemn the concubines." โ€

The Queen Mother said on the side: "Concubine Zhao is in the palace, she is obedient and soft, hardworking and capable, and she is the best child." I don't know anything about government politics, but I feel sorry for this child, and I hope you can change it, don't drag her down. โ€

After she said that, she got up and said, "Lingzhao, go out for a walk with me." โ€

Ling Zhao was noncommittal, raised his eyes and looked at the majestic Empress Dowager, Yu'er relaxed: "Go, sit for a long time, and I will come to disperse in a while." โ€

The Queen Mother stretched out her hand to Lingzhao and took her out.

Kubilong's wife and eldest daughter-in-law knelt tremblingly in the center of the hall, and Yu'er said coldly: "Concubine Zhao is gone, I'll just say a few words, you are all pillow people, you know very well what your husband has done, you can save your life and even dignity, it is really Concubine Zhao who is trying to turn the tide in the palace." But she can't interfere in the government, and she can't influence the emperor's decisions, the reason why she can protect you is because she is good, because everyone feels sorry for her. โ€

Mrs. Yan is a step-family, almost about the same age as the eldest daughter-in-law, the two of them fell on the ground, and they didn't dare to say a word, they were already thankful that they could survive this turmoil.

Although before entering the palace, Kubilon said that if the Empress Dowager came forward to reprimand, it would show that she and the emperor had let go of Niu Hulu's family, but when they really came to the front, in the face of supreme majesty and anger, they were still frightened.

Yu'er said: "No matter how much you say, you don't need to say it, I hope you can do it yourself." At tonight's Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, be decent and generous, since the emperor has pardoned you, in the future, you can only be loyal to the monarch and serve the country, and be an honest man. โ€

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law thanked the emperor together, but they still fell on the ground and didn't dare to move, so Yu'er said to Su Mala: "Where did they go, I went for a walk together, and I sat for a long time with a sore back." โ€

Su Mala stepped forward to support Gege, and ordered his subordinates to look at the two ladies with a look in his eyes, and after their master and servant left, the palace maids respectfully came to invite the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to leave the palace.

The lady of Suppilon fell to the ground and cried, "Iโ€”I can't move......"

In the garden in front of Cining Palace, the Queen Mother took Lingzhao for a walk, and when she saw that there was almost no decoration in the garden, she asked: "There are lights everywhere, why is there not even a lamp hung here." โ€

Ling Zhao said: "The Empress Dowager loves natural scenery the most, no matter how gorgeous the palace lamps and palace flowers are, they are not as beautiful as the scenery of the four seasons, and the palace has to hold a banquet, so she has to be decent, and the concubines want to leave this place pure and natural to the Empress Dowager." โ€

"You kid." The Queen Mother said distressedly, "Lingzhao, listen to my words, put down your family and clansmen, and be the imperial concubine with peace of mind from now on, Xuan Ye is a child who values love and righteousness, and he will never treat you badly." โ€

"Yes, the concubine listens to you." Ling Zhao lowered his eyes.

"Although I am the queen mother, I know that I have no power and no power, and I can't help you with anything." The Queen Mother said, "But don't worry, I will never let people bully you, but the emperor still calls me the emperor." โ€

Ling Zhao choked: "How can the concubine He De ......?"

The Queen Mother said: "Okay, don't cry, the emperor is here." โ€

After that, the two stepped forward, and Yu'er smiled and said to Lingzhao: "You are busy, there is the Queen Mother with me, I know you remember tonight's banquet, go." โ€

Ling Zhao didn't insist, there were indeed a lot of things waiting for her to urge and make up her mind, seeing that the Empress Dowager didn't mention her mother and eldest sister-in-law, she didn't dare to say much, so she resigned after saluting.

Watching Lingzhao walk away, the Queen Mother stepped forward to support Yu'er and said, "E-Niang, I said everything you asked me to say." โ€

Yu'er bowed her head, took the Queen Mother and continued to walk around the garden, and said earnestly: "It's a good thing that you have a caring child by your side, but the burden on Concubine Zhao's shoulders is too heavy, and this child has a good temperament, so you have to pay more attention." โ€

The Queen Mother said frankly: "Eniang, are you worried that I am biased, unfair to the queen, and even do things to hurt the queen in order to help her." โ€

Yu'er sneered: "If you have this ability, I will be relieved, I am afraid that you will be sold unknowingly, and I am afraid that others will hurt you." โ€

The Queen Mother's eyes were red, and she said: "Although Lingzhao is a concubine, she is also Yuan Xi's daughter-in-law, I can't do anything, so I will hurt Ling Zhao for Yuan Xi, and I will repay her." โ€

Yu'er looked at the sky and said with emotion: "That's it, if she lives, she will be tortured in her thoughts every day, a brilliant and brilliant life, dare to love and hate, even if it is short, she will not live in vain." โ€

Speaking of these, Yu'er suddenly remembered: "What about Shu Shu?" What about the Queen? โ€

Su Mala said with a smile: "Rest in the inner hall, just now the slave maid wanted to say, why did everyone leave and leave the queen behind." โ€

Yu'er thought for a moment and instructed Su Mala: "I want to go back and take a look, you tell me to go down and don't alarm her." โ€

Su Mala didn't dare to ask Gege what his intentions were, or arrange it, and soon after sending Yu'er back to Cining Palace, the master and servant quietly walked into the inner hall.

However, as far as he could see, Shu Shu was carefully wiping the set of crystal chess with a silk handkerchief.

Wiped and unwiped in half, the shoes taken off on the ground were neatly arranged, and the cushions under her were not messy, and it was clear that she had sat here for a long time without moving.

Yu'er smiled: "Child, isn't your stomach uncomfortable when you sit cross-legged like this, and your legs can still be crossed?" โ€

Shu Shu was about to get up and salute, but was stopped by Su Mala, and Yu'er said angrily: "I have long asked you to be exempt, and you are still pretending." โ€

"The emperor's grandmother's words, if the emperor hears this, he can bully his grandson for several days." Shu Shu said, "Now he can't seize the opportunity to bully me, and he has a bad idea in his heart." โ€

Yu'er smiled: "He doesn't dare." โ€

Shu Shu asked, "Imperial grandmother, have all the guests dispersed?" โ€

Yu'er bowed her head: "It's all scattered, and I also asked her to go back first, so that she can have a good rest in her own house, and she accompanied me for a long time, it's weird and tired." โ€

Raising her eyes to see Shu Shu looking out, Yu'er asked, "Who are you looking for?" โ€

Shu Shu smiled: "Imperial grandmother, tilt the strings." โ€

Yu'er suddenly asked Su Mala: "What about the girl?" โ€

Su Mala said: "I said that I went to the backyard of Ningshou Palace to ask for peace for the concubine, but you forgot?" โ€

Yu'er shook her head and instructed Su Mala: "Hurry up and take a look, don't let her run around in the palace, it was Shu Shu who picked her up, isn't it the queen's fault that she got into trouble." โ€

Su Mala took the order and left, and Yu'er blamed Shu Shu: "Why do you want to take the strings?" In the evening, the people of the Tong family came to the banquet, and she might not be able to accompany her, but you picked her up in broad daylight. โ€

Shu Shu said honestly: "The emperor's grandmother, in fact, is what the emperor meant, it's just that the grandson came forward." โ€

Yu'er frowned slightly, figuring out Xuan Ye's thoughts, but soon figured it out, reached out and held Shu Shu's already swollen hand, and said distressedly: "Good boy." โ€

And there are some things that don't need to be said explicitly, both grandparents and grandchildren understand it in their hearts.

On this side, Su Mala rushed to find the string, and also thought that the child might secretly go to the Qianqing Palace to find the emperor, but unexpectedly, the string really asked for peace in the Ningshou Palace, and several concubines and nobles surrounded her, talking happily.

After resigning from the concubines, she took the strings back to Cining Palace, the little girl took the initiative to hold Su Mala's hand, Su Mala did not refuse, and said with a smile: "Miss has not entered the palace for a few days, but see you now, she has grown taller again." โ€

He smiled and said, "The emperor's brother is tall, and I can't be too short." โ€

Su Mala looked down at the child, and saw that she said innocently: "I haven't seen the emperor's brother for a long time, mama, has the emperor's brother also grown taller." โ€

Although the emperor already has children, he can indeed grow his body at this age, the needlework room has to make new robes every few months, and the size of the dragon boots is getting bigger and bigger, if you don't see it for a year and a half, it will be the most obvious to look at.

"Mama." The strings chattered non-stop, "The queen's sister-in-law said, on the day she gave birth to the baby, you can pick me up to see the little nephew, Mama, can you remind the queen mother then." โ€

This kid is really not polite, Su Mala smiled and agreed: "The slave has written it down, and I will definitely take the young lady into the palace to see the little nephew." โ€

He said, "Mama, I'm still thinking about what gift to give to my little nephew, I have a lot of toys." โ€

Su Mala took the child's hand, touched the scars on her fingertips, took a closer look, and guessed that the little girl was forced to practice, if it wasn't for hard practice every day, it would never hurt like this.

It can be seen that Tong Guowei began to collect his heart for his daughter, and the indulgence in her early years gave her a proud and free personality, and next, she had to train her how to become an imperial concubine and how to win the emperor's favor.

Su Mala couldn't help but feel distressed, thinking that if Yuan Xi was still alive, he shouldn't be able to tolerate his family tossing his niece like this.

"Mama......" called her delicately, pointing to the palace lantern under the eaves and saying, "This lantern is really beautiful." โ€

"yes, the slave hasn't seen it light up before." Su Mala said, "When the lights are on at night, Miss don't miss it. โ€

In the evening, the moment the sun sets, the lanterns are on, and hundreds of glass lamps are lit up at the same time, illuminating the inside and outside of the Qianqing Gate.

The princes, ministers and ladies who went to the banquet had already attended and waited for the holy car, and Mrs. Tong took her son and daughter-in-law into the palace.

She has been thinking about this in her heart, and coincidentally, at the banquet, there is Lao Fujin praising the beauty of this year's palace lanterns, and the Queen Mother said: "Concubine Zhao ordered someone to build it carefully, and she personally inspected each lantern, but it took a lot of thought." โ€

Praising Concubine Zhao's virtue and ability is almost a must at every royal banquet, and Ling Zhao has to try her best to shine every time, although she is tired and annoying, but she thinks it is worth it.

Halfway through the banquet, the atmosphere at the banquet gradually relaxed, Tong Tianxian was confined to his grandmother's side, suffocating uncomfortably, and finally took the opportunity to leave the table, and immediately ran to the emperor's side.

Xuan Ye has always been tolerant and fond of his cousin, and said: "I was very well-behaved today, and I didn't even hear a sound." โ€

Leaning string pouted and said, "Grandma is by my side, so I don't dare." Her eyes rolled slowly, and she said coquettishly, "Brother Emperor, I want to ask you for something." โ€

Xuan Ye disagreed: "What do you want?" โ€

"I want two new palace lamps to hang outside my house." โ€

Xuan Ye casually instructed Da Lizi: "Go pick two lamps." โ€

She was very happy, and soon saw two little eunuchs carrying palace lanterns, she was satisfied with it, and Xuan Ye said, "Send it to Tong's Mansion." โ€

Shu Shu was on the side, slowly eating the meal specially prepared for her in the imperial dining room, and had the heart to raise her eyes to look, and sure enough, when she saw Concubine Zhao under the table, she looked here in a daze, her eyes full of frustration and sadness, all overflowing.
