"Mother, it's not good, it's not good......"

In the side hall of the Ciyuan Hall of Yongnian Palace, Empress Zhao was having dinner under the service of the palace maid of the Catering Bureau, and a little palace maid ran in in a panic.

"Smack-" As soon as the little palace maid ran into the hall, Jin Rong, a high-ranking palace maid who was guarding the door, stepped forward and slapped her hard, "Presumptuous, why is the mother bad?!" ”

The little palace maid covered her red cheeks and was stunned at the door for a while.

"What's so panicking?" After a long while, Empress Zhao asked.

"Mother, I'...... The servant listened to the tea eunuch in the imperial study and said, the eldest princess of Fuguo...... She ......"

"Jin Yao, what's wrong with her?!" Empress Zhao immediately stood up and asked.

"He said that the eldest princess of Fuguo was killed by someone sent by His Royal Highness......"

With a loud bang, the jade spoon held by Empress Zhao fell into the white jade cup containing the soup, and the splashed soup splashed on the face of the palace maid next to her and herself.

"Niangniang is angry, the slave will change your clothes for you......"

Jin Rong hurriedly ran close to wipe the soup on Empress Zhao's robe, but Empress Zhao pushed her hand away and strode out of the hall.

"Niangniang, you slow down......" Jin Rong and other personal palace maids immediately chased after him.

Empress Zhao hurried all the way, and when she walked to the gate of Funing Palace, she happened to meet Ling Chong, who had been summoned to come.

"Mother, you ...... Got the news too? Ling Chong saw that her face was not good, and guessed that she already knew.

"Jin Yao's matter, but is it true?"

"Erchen also just received a flying pigeon from the Hidden Dragon Temple, and was about to come to see his mother, when he received an order from his father."

Empress Zhao grabbed his arm, "Is it really Ling Li's thief who sent someone to kill Jin Yao?!" ”

"Sister Huang was killed, who else could it be besides Ling Li's scumbag?! It is said that Wushu sent him a letter of peace a few days ago, and suggested that he temporarily withdraw from Wuhualing to negotiate peace with the imperial sister, but the scumbag deliberately concealed the news, because he was afraid that his father would let him withdraw from the army. ”

"Conceal the proposal and letter of refutation? What is the intention of this thief?! ”

"That scumbag is greedy for military merit, as long as he kills the imperial sister, he can not only make Wushu Jie lose the hostage who coerced him, but also blame the death of the imperial sister on Xili, and provoke his father to agree to him to go out to fight!" Ling Chong said hatefully: "Back then, he was plotting to harm my maternal uncle's family, and I saw his wolf ambition!" ”

"Brought down my mother's family, he thought it would be his turn to take the throne of South Vietnam?!" Empress Zhao gritted her teeth and said, "Jin Yao, the queen mother must seek justice for you!" ”

With that, she left Ling Chong behind and walked towards the Funing Hall quickly.

"Blessed mother! The emperor is discussing with the important ministers of the two governments in the imperial study, and it is inconvenient to let the mother in. After bowing, the guards of the Funing Hall raised their arms to stop her.

"Get out of here—" She raised her arm and slapped the guard who was holding her back in the face, but before the guard could react, she grabbed her skirt and rushed into the Funing Palace, striding towards the imperial study.

"Mother's ——!"

The important ministers of the two prefectures in the study saw her breaking in angrily, and they all hurriedly stood up and said hello.

"Queen! I am discussing state affairs with the secretaries, what kind of system are you going on such a rampage?! Emperor Chengde's face was gloomy.

"Discuss state affairs?! It's you cowardly and incompetent mediocre ministers who killed my Jin Yao! Empress Zhao ignored Emperor Chengde's questioning, and while walking forward, she pointed to the two ministers and ministers in the imperial study one by one, "Heqin, it was your dog's idea ......", her fingers moved around, and finally pointed at Shu Shi'an and scolded.

Shu Shi'an took a step back in panic, "Niangniang is angry!" The matter of the eldest princess of Fuguo has yet to be confirmed by the Privy Council......"

"Confirmed? What else needs to be confirmed?! Don't you think that this palace doesn't know that you and Ling Lixin are complicit and plotting against each other?! ”

"The minister is frightened, I don't know what Niangniang means by this?" Shu Shi'an listened with a black line on his face.

"You let a woman settle the dispute between the two countries, it is a big mistake, knowing that Ling Li resented the prince and the palace because of the Shen family's affairs, you also recommended him to be the general of Zhenxi, and asked him to go on an expedition to the west plow. Jin Yao was in the Xili Palace, which was the biggest obstacle to Ling Li's reckless military force, so he naturally wanted to get rid of it and ...... it quickly."

"Presumptuous! As the mother of a country, you don't set an example of virtue in the harem, but you dare to come to the former dynasty to criticize the ministers and criticize the government! Listening to Empress Zhao's chiseling, the more she talked, the more ridiculous it became, Emperor Chengde stood up with his desk on his desk, "Someone-"

"The father is angry, the queen mother is a daughter who loves her heart, and when she first heard the bad news, she was impulsive to this point, and I hope that my father will be more considerate." Seeing Emperor Chengde reprimanding the queen, Ling Zhao, who was serving on the side, immediately knelt on the ground and pleaded.

Maybe he got up too fast, Emperor Chengde's eyes suddenly darkened, he held the corner of the table and closed his eyes for a long time before he spoke again: "Come on, first escort the queen back to Ciyuan Hall and wait for the fate!" ”

As soon as Emperor Chengde finished speaking, four imperial guards walked in, restrained Empress Zhao's hands and feet, and put her out.

Ling Chong followed the queen into the imperial study, he originally thought that his mother, who had always been peaceful, would use the usual means of overcoming rigidity with softness to tell his father Ling Li's wolf ambitions, but he didn't expect her to be so impulsive, and he was stunned for a while.

"What is the prince still stunned for? I summoned you to appease the queen......"

Ling Chong reacted, and immediately bowed down and said, "Erchen, I'm going to take care of the queen mother." ”

Not long after Ling Chong rushed to Ciyuan Palace, Ling Zhao also came to visit the empress.

"The second brother came to see our mother-son jokes?" As soon as Ling Chong saw Ling Zhao, he asked questions.

"Brother Huang, why bother? If the younger brother has half of this kind of disobedience and unfilial piety, he will not intercede for his mother when his father is angry. ”

Seeing that Ling Zhao's face was heavy and his tone was quite sincere, Ling Chong softened his tone and said, "Thank you for the second brother." After the queen mother came back from the Funing Palace, she kept crying, her eyes were swollen, and she didn't want to see anyone at the moment, so you should go back. ”

"The queen mother really surprised the younger brother today, originally, the younger brother wanted to follow the queen mother's past temperament, even if the murder of the imperial sister was painful, she should also focus on the overall situation, take the initiative to consider the imperial brother, and deal with it calmly, but I didn't expect that she not only missed the opportunity, but also offended a number of ministers......" Ling Zhao sighed again and again.

"What did you miss?" Ling Chong was a little puzzled.

"If the queen mother handles it calmly, the murder of the imperial sister will not only allow the father to see the face of the third brother thoroughly, but also allow the father to take the initiative to repair the relationship with the imperial brother because of the pain of losing his daughter and guilt......

Hearing Ling Zhao's words, Ling Chong was extremely resentful in his heart. The fall of the Zhao family and his grounding before made him feel that his position as the crown prince was in jeopardy, and today's queen mother's offense against the ministers is even worse, and if it continues like this, he will only be one step away from being deposed!
