The night was so thick that it couldn't be dissolved.

The queen lady was expressionless, using the porridge sent from the small kitchen.

The emperor sat on the side, a spoonful of which was not moved.

The atmosphere between mother and son was very stiff.

Concubine Shu sat on the other side of the Queen Mother, holding a small spoon, looking apprehensive that she was not using it or not.

The palace people hung their hands and waited honestly aside.

In such a situation, even breathing is cautious, for fear that he will make some noise and displease his masters.

The queen mother used it in a small mouth, and looked at the concubine obliquely.

The meaning in his eyes was clear.

Don't pay attention to the emperor, just use it.

Concubine Shu understood, and in accordance with the queen mother's wishes, she drank porridge in small sips.

A bowl of hot porridge is in the stomach, and with a few snacks, the queen mother is a little more comfortable.

I was really angry before, my chest was tight, and my stomach was twisted.

"The porridge in the small kitchen is good," the Queen Mother praised, "and the stomach of the mourning family is much warmer." ”

"It's best to keep your mouth shut." Shufei said.

The queen mother rinsed her mouth and said, "If the emperor doesn't plan to use it, then send the mourning family back to Cining Palace." ”

The emperor stood up with a stiff face.

Concubine Shu also hurriedly got up, helped the queen mother and said, "I'll send you." ”

"It's hard to walk in the dark," said the Queen Mother, "and you take care of yourself." ”

Concubine Shu is as good as a stream.

She just said it casually.

The queen mother and the emperor still have to continue to talk about things that she can't listen to, it's inconvenient in her palace, so she goes back to Cining Palace, how can she let her follow.

Sending the mother and son out of the hall, Concubine Shu saluted respectfully, until her back was gone, she Shi Shiran got up and returned to the palace.

On the table, the dishes and chopsticks are still resting.

The emperor's bowl, how was it served, and how is it now.

Concubine Shu laughed in her heart and said, "Let's all withdraw." ”

With that, she walked to the dormitory.

After a bowl of porridge, the queen mother's body was temporarily comfortable, and the dissatisfaction in her heart probably added another layer.

With the character of the Queen Mother, since things have happened, we should face up, reflect, correct, improve, and continue to move forward.

Either step, it doesn't include "skipping meals".

The emperor's actions are in the eyes of the queen mother, which is a trick and a tantrum, which is not the way of a mature person.

The Queen Mother didn't like it very much.

Come to think of it, after arriving at Cining Palace, for today's changes, the queen mother and the emperor must have a big quarrel.

Between people, they can't stand one dispute after another.

It's the same even for mothers and children.

Even if you can't get to the point where you turn against each other, you are getting more and more centrifugal and are already on the way.

Sitting down in front of the dresser, lifting her sleeves, Concubine Shu lowered her eyes and looked at her arms.

The old wound had faded to the naked eye, and if she hadn't always remembered it, she would have to look for it herself.

The fire in Changning Palace was arranged by the queen.

Mrs. Hou left the palace, and what happened after that, Concubine Shu has no way of knowing for the time being.

She could only read and pray in her heart, hoping that everything would go well with the eldest princess and the Hou Mansion and that she could put up a banner and return to Beijing.

The big red flying flag, she wanted to see it again.

In the other compartment, in the Cining Palace, the Queen Mother sat down on the couch.

Along the way, their mother and son didn't say a word.

First, it's not suitable to talk outside, and second, I really don't know what to say, so I can only step up.

As she walked, those things were repeated in her mind, from beginning to end, and the more she pondered, the more angry she became.

When she returned to her own territory, the Queen Mother forced herself to calm down.

Say things, say important things!

It's useless to get angry!

But as soon as she saw the emperor's impatient appearance, she couldn't get angry.

What's behind the impatience?

It is unwillingness, dissatisfaction, disbelief, as well as worry, fear, and vacillation.

How can this be the case with a dignified king?

Soon, the prince who had been sent outside the palace to check on the situation returned.

Wang Gonggong said: "As Niangniang expected, the gate of the Yongning Marquis Mansion was closed, and the people inside went to the empty building, and the small one went to explore the Dingguo Mansion and the Pingyang Princess's Mansion, and the two places were in the same situation. ”

With his words, the emperor's face became heavier and heavier, and he raised his hand and slapped it heavily on the table.

The tea set on top jingles.

The Queen Mother frowned.

She really wanted to point to the princess and the emperor.

This is what a capable chamberlain looks like!

She explained one, the prince can think of two or three, not only think, but also do things.

There is no shortage of such astute people in Cining Palace, and what kind of things are they waiting for in front of the emperor!

And that Xu Liu, if the matter is smashed, he has to come back to restore his life, that is, the palace gate is closed, and he is a chief attendant, will he not be able to knock on the palace door?

So far, there is no one, and I don't know where he died!

Then the mourners said that they were going to leave. The Queen Mother said.

These words fell on the ears of the emperor, and they were quite accusatory.

He said dryly: "I also said a long time ago, Qin Yinzhong is not me, he and Nianzhi's stinky boy are in Feimen Pass, sooner or later they will rebel!" Look, isn't this going to be the other way around? ”

"Isn't it the emperor who startled the snake?" The Empress Dowager raised her eyes and pointed rightly, "Why don't you leave early or late, but when the emperor attacked the Qin family's girl, he left?" ”

The emperor looked down and said, "It's a coincidence." ”

"There is no such thing as a coincidence in this world!" The Empress Dowager took a deep breath, "When the Emperor asked the mourning family to beg someone to go to the Guogong Mansion in the morning, he made up his mind, right?" Why don't you explain it to the mourners? But if you say it, the mourners won't let you do it! ”

When the words fell, the emperor snorted and laughed, and the sarcasm flashed.

"The emperor was afraid that the mourning family would stop him, so he blindly hid it, and then what?" The Empress Dowager said, "And then the matter was defeated!" ”

The emperor retorted: "If it weren't for the Changning Palace, would Mrs. Hou have a chance to get out?" ”

The Queen Mother was speechless for a while.

She looked at the emperor deeply and shook her head slowly.

"There is no coincidence in the world," the Empress Dowager repeated, "Is the emperor so naïve as to think that Changning Palace was burned by himself?" ”

The emperor's throat rolled.

Artificial?

Cooperate with Mrs. Hou?

Who is it?

The Empress Dowager saw his reaction in her eyes and said, "With such a big palace, how easy is it to catch a thief who set fire to it?" ”

"Won't you check it?" The emperor asked rhetorically.

"You can only check one scapegoat, you dare to set fire, will you not know how to protect yourself? What are you doing in a hurry? The Queen Mother said, "Check it slowly." ”

The emperor was sullen.

The Empress Dowager said again: "The emperor might as well tell the mourning family carefully, what did Xu Liu do?" Why hasn't you returned? Mrs. Liuhou is in the palace, and the tiger is separated from the mountain, does the emperor want Xu Liu to directly surround the Yongning Marquis Mansion? Where did he go? The emperor also said before, how did you make people stare at the Hou Mansion? ”

These questions made the emperor's ears burn, and he scolded Gonggong Xu in his heart.

There are so many people in the Yongning Marquis Mansion, why did they leave quietly?

These doubts were smashed down by the queen mother, and the emperor was annoyed and angry, and said: "The queen mother is accusing me of accusing me, isn't it, and rehashing old accounts with me?" ”
