No matter how good Emperor Yongning's reasons were, Empress Xue felt that something was wrong.

She always suspected that the root cause was Du Tong's young son, after all, Jingzhao had all kinds of rumors about the emperor's dragon health, all in order to force the emperor to calm down.

Once the emperor makes a pacification, then the matter will definitely be resolved from the source.

The source is those things.

Accumulating power for the crown prince, the death of Zhou Meiren, the scholars who had close contacts with the Zhou family, and the Jiang family......

She knows the emperor too well, and what the emperor cares about most is the throne - who doesn't care?

Therefore, in order to sit on the throne and calm the turbulent hearts of the people in the court, no matter what she and the emperor agreed to do, he will definitely change.

To sharpen the crown prince, how can the throne be important?

Sure enough, she heard Emperor Yongning reply, "I have to change my previous plan. The matter of Du Tong's youngest son entering the Crown Prince Zhan's Mansion will be put aside for the time being."

Empress Xue lowered her head and replied, "Yes, Your Majesty."

"And those scholars of the Zhou family......" Emperor Yongning stroked his beard, half-closed his eyes, and hesitated slightly.

Empress Xue Huo Ran raised her head, and her eyes looking at Emperor Yongning couldn't help but flash a sharp light, as if she was about to pierce people's hearts, but she disappeared in an instant

Fortunately, Emperor Yongning was thinking about it, and he had not regained his usual sharpness, and he had not yet noticed anything.

Empress Xue pinched her handkerchief, forced herself to calm down, and thought about how to deal with it.

But Emperor Yongning didn't ponder for too long, and quickly made a decision: "Forget about dealing with those scholars. These people are from the country, and they are also the pillars of the country, I ...... We need to take another look."

Empress Xue blinked a few times before she raised her head to look at Emperor Yongning, and patiently persuaded, "Your Majesty, those scholars are untamed, if you don't take advantage of the accident between Zhou Meiren and the Zhou family to deal with them now, you will miss the opportunity. Next year's imperial examination ......"

"Okay, okay, if the current crisis is not resolved, I don't know if next year's imperial examination will be carried out as scheduled." Emperor Yongning frowned and said, not wanting to hear what Empress Xue said again.

How could he not have known that this was a missed opportunity?

But the lesser of two evils, anything that threatens to shake the throne, he must first calm down.

As for those who read...... He has endured it for so many years, and he might as well endure it for a few more years.

"But, Your ......Majesty," Empress Xue wanted to say something, but Emperor Yongning said impatiently, "Okay, Empress, I know what you want to say, the crown prince, I will plan for him."

Speaking of which, if he hadn't been planning for the crown prince, how could there be the current crisis?

Shen Jingzong is actually not wrong, all dynasties and dynasties, but all emperors who accumulate power for the crown prince will be great, and an emperor like him is really unprecedented.

As an emperor and as a father, he has done enough for the crown prince, and he will continue to do it in the future, so let's calm down these things first.

"The concubine and the crown prince, thank you to the emperor! What the emperor said is that the crisis has been calmed down first. Your Majesty, what do you need the crown prince or the Xue family to do?" Empress Xue asked, looking like she was thinking about Emperor Yongning.

She knew that she couldn't say anything more, and if she continued to say it, it would make the emperor angry, which would really be self-defeating.

Moreover, what the emperor said is also reasonable, if the current crisis cannot be solved first, it is difficult to say what will happen in the future.

She could let the emperor plan for the crown prince before, and she will definitely be able to do it in the future!

Emperor Yongning saw her eyes with concern, knowing that she was agreeing with his words, and his heart couldn't help but feel relieved, and said, "There is no need to do anything, I just need to withdraw my previous words and beat the Jiang family and officials again, and this matter will naturally be resolved."

Aunt Fufen walked in, looked at her master's gloomy face, and said cautiously, "Niangniang, do you want to go to the small Buddha hall to be quiet?"

Niangniang believes in Buddhism, Kunning Palace has set up a small Buddha hall, every time Niangniang is in a bad mood, she will be much better after going to the small Buddha hall.

She though

However, she is the trusted aunt of Queen Xue, but she doesn't really know what her master is thinking, especially in matters related to the emperor.

Every time the emperor was in Kunning Palace, Niangniang would retire these palace maids and serve them personally.

For example, right now, when Niangniang sent the emperor away, her eyebrows and eyes were smiling, but as soon as the emperor left Kunning Palace, Niangniang was like this......

Empress Xue glanced at Aunt Fufen, and her eyes softened a lot: "Okay, let's go to the small Buddha hall in this palace to be quiet."

Aunt Fufen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that she had guessed the heart of her master, and her steps were much happier.

After Empress Xue entered the small Buddha hall, she said to Aunt Fufen, "Okay, you all leave, and the palace will be quiet."

Aunt Fufen and the others retreated after hearing the order, and as soon as they left, Empress Xue's expression changed, and her originally calm expression suddenly became fierce and cold.

She looked at the benevolent Buddha statue, and a smile slowly appeared on her lips, and the smile was not dignified and gentle, but full of ridicule.

She walked forward slowly, reached out and touched the Buddha statue gently, then raised two fingers, scraped the face of the Buddha statue with her armor, and smiled: "This palace is a person who believes in Buddhism, heh......

She slashed hard, and a sharp scraping sound rang out, and the armor almost left a scratch on the Buddha statue.

With such words and actions, it is impossible to see that she has any devotion to the Buddha statue, and if anyone sees it, I am afraid that they will be surprised.

No one knows that Queen Xue doesn't believe in Buddhism at all, and the reason why she set up a small Buddha hall in the side hall is just to make a show.

People in the world are ignorant, and they always think that a person who believes in Buddhism will have compassion and kindness in his heart, and he will not feel a little more trust and less vigilance.

Even the emperor is no exception.

In this case, she put on a pretense of believing in Buddhism, why not?

As long as it is good for her and allows her to get what she wants, she can do anything, not to mention just pretending to believe in Buddhism.

She didn't believe the oaths she made in front of Emperor Yongning, but the emperor believed it.

It's funny to say, how did the emperor ascend to the throne of God, the emperor himself couldn't be clearer, and he would even believe that she would believe in Buddhism?

It's incredible.

She believes that after her child ascends the throne, if a holy decree orders the ban on the Buddha, I am afraid that the gods and Buddhas themselves will not be able to protect them.

So, what's the use of relying on the blessings of God and Buddha? People, you have to rely on yourself.

However, this small Buddha hall still has one benefit, that is, it allows her to calm down.

A clay tire bronze sculpture that cannot be spoken or heard can be respected and believed by the world, so a person who holds power, can speak, listen and do should be able to get more!

That's what she believes.
