"What can I do in such a situation? What do I dare to do? Empress Dowager Li asked this sentence almost mockingly, and then sighed lightly, put the teapot down and sat upright, and then stared at the tea soup, almost stunned: "I have accepted my fate." ”

When Empress Dowager Li said this, she was surprisingly calm.

That calmness, easily, emanated from her, and made it feel clear and understandable.

Princess Zhaoping was shocked at first, and then fell on the table and laughed lowly. The pearls on his head trembled lightly and made a subtle sound. Her movements covered her face like this, so Empress Dowager Li didn't see the wetness in the corners of her eyes, nor did she see the arc of her mockery.

At this time, Empress Dowager Li said that she had accepted her fate. What about Lin Xiaoyan? So is it as she should be in her misfortune and loneliness now? How ridiculous. What is the consequence that Lin Xiaoyan lost her life, and why did she bear such pain?

Empress Dowager Li listened to Princess Zhaoping's laughter, her face became more and more blank, and finally she sighed: "Zhaoping, I know I'm sorry for you-"

"Don't talk about it, Queen Mother." Letting the wide and soft sleeves absorb the water from the corners of her eyes, Princess Zhaoping raised her head and regained her composure, which also interrupted Empress Dowager Li's words.

"So, this incident is really not the queen mother's doing?" Princess Zhaoping asked. stared at the Empress Dowager Li scorchingly-if Empress Dowager Li lied in the slightest, she could see it.

Empress Dowager Li was a little surprised when she was asked like this: "What can I do?" Or do you also suspect that the emperor's poison was made by me? ”

Empress Dowager Li's expression was sneering, her fingers were clenched a little, and she looked as if she couldn't bear it anymore and was about to get angry.

At this time, if it was not Princess Zhaoping but someone else in front of Empress Dowager Li, I am afraid that Empress Dowager Li would have been unable to suppress her anger for a long time.

Princess Zhaoping could see from Empress Dowager Li's reaction that things were going on. After a pause, she suddenly spoke: "Then why doesn't the queen mother want to help the emperor?" ”

Empress Dowager Li was stunned. This time, I didn't come back to my senses for a long time.

Princess Zhaoping continued: "The queen mother and the emperor had a disagreement at the beginning, so why not take this opportunity to ease the situation?" Didn't the queen mother want Zhu Qi to be free again? Why don't you want to help the emperor? ”

Princess Zhaoping's words are simply demagogic.

There was a trace of hesitation on Empress Dowager Li's face - although it was impossible to move her by easing her feelings or something, but if it was Zhu Qi......

Of course, Empress Dowager Li knew that Princess Zhaoping said this just to win her over, but she also understood that if this matter was really done at this time, the effect would not be ordinarily good.

Empress Dowager Li thought about it for a long time and didn't speak.

Princess Zhaoping was not in a hurry, she refilled a cup of tea and sipped it slowly. After a while, he suddenly frowned, and asked the Empress Dowager Li: "What kind of incense is this?" ”

Empress Dowager Li was thinking about it, but she didn't think much about it when she was asked like this, but replied casually: "I can't figure out what it is, but I think it's okay when I smell it, so I have been using it." ”

"I'm so tired of it. It makes people smell impetuous. Princess Zhaoping frowned, showing a little displeasure.

Empress Dowager Li only thought it was a trivial matter: "If you don't like it, then change someone." So saying, he called for someone to come in and change the incense.

Princess Zhaoping stopped Empress Dowager Li with a shallow smile: "It's just a trivial matter, I don't have to call someone in to get in the way." I have an aromatherapy ball here, and there is incense in it, so I just change it in. ”

Saying that, Princess Zhaoping broke the exquisite aromatherapy ball on her waist, and then took out a light green aromatherapy pill inside. At the end, he put it on the tip of his nose and smelled it, and handed it to the Empress Dowager Li casually: "The queen mother will help me hold it first, and I will replace the incense." ”

Empress Dowager Li naturally took it over. Then I put it on the tip of my nose and smelled it, and then I was a little surprised: "It's really very good, I haven't smelled it before." The smell is refreshing, and it seems to be a little cool. It's good to use this in the summer. "After being a queen for so many years, she doesn't know much about incense, but she has the ability to appreciate it.

Princess Zhaoping's incense is indeed a good thing.

Princess Zhaoping skillfully took out all the remaining incense in the incense burner of the crane Xianrui with a tong, and then splashed it with cold tea. In this way, the fragrance is naturally gone.

Princess Zhaoping added the pill of incense she had brought with her, and covered it with hot ashes, so that the fragrance was soon triggered by the heat and spread out at once.

The cool and light taste quickly dispelled the previous taste.

Princess Zhaoping took a deep breath and smiled slightly: "This smells much better." ”

This is just a trivial matter, Empress Dowager Li saw that Princess Zhaoping liked the fragrance so much, so she praised it twice, and then changed the topic back: "Zhaoping, in your opinion, how can you be regarded as helping the emperor?" ”

Princess Zhaoping looked at the care of Empress Dowager Li and smiled slightly, but she couldn't tell what it was like in her heart. However, these thoughts were finally suppressed by her, and she just said: "The emperor favors the concubine, and the queen mother doesn't have to face the concubine." Help appropriately, the emperor will come from the meeting. ”

Empress Dowager Li pursed her lips, a little reluctant: "She's just a broken household, and she's still ......"

Princess Zhaoping suddenly became a little angry and impatient, Huo Ran got up and looked at Empress Dowager Li and smiled coldly, not hiding her ridicule: "The queen mother is really angry." But who would have thought that the emperor would take a fancy to such a broken girl? It's still pampered like a jewel, what do people say? That's it, the queen mother can't listen to what I say, so what am I going to do with it? ”

After saying that, he turned around and left directly, only to let the Empress Dowager Li stay in place, and she couldn't come back to her senses for a long time, choking people are uncomfortable.

When she eased up, Empress Dowager Li looked at the teacups on the table, and felt irritated for a while, and finally simply reached out and swept away those things, letting the good tea set crackle and shatter to the ground.

It's just that venting like this didn't make Empress Dowager Li feel more soothed, but let the clouds outside come in in a hurry. Looking at the mess, Izumo didn't feel strange, but sighed habitually, and then asked someone to come in and clean up.

"The Queen Mother is not hurt, right?" Izumo habitually asked.

Empress Dowager Li shook her head with a gloomy face, and her speechless appearance frightened the little palace maids almost without trembling.

Izumo was about to persuade a few words, so that Empress Dowager Li soothed her mood, but who knew that she suddenly moved her nose.
