Mu Qingfeng said: "I ask you to go and tell the emperor about the divorce, but you don't go." The son had to come on his own. Reporting the crown prince is a condition given to me by the emperor. ”

Mu Yu's eyes changed: "Your Majesty? Did he make you do it? ”

Mu Qingfeng nodded.

Mu Yu thought for a while and said, "After you go back, you go and excuse Bai Hou yourself." ”

Mu Qingfeng: "Please? ”

"He didn't mention your false accusation again, and just left, don't you think he forgot? He is looking at the friendship between our Mu and Bai families for many years, let you go! ”

Mu Qingfeng was silent for a moment: "I'll go." ”

……

Inside the Palace of Longevity.

Only the Empress Dowager, the Emperor and Liu Kuang were left in the house.

The Queen Mother said, "Liu Kuang, give me the brush in your hand." ”

Liu Kuang didn't move, looking at the emperor.

The emperor asked with a very bad face: "Queen Mother, what do you want this for?" ”

Queen Mother: "Give it to me!" ”

But the emperor said, "Liu Kuang, you go out first." ”

Liu Kuang hid the brush in his sleeve and went out.

The Queen Mother understood everything and sneered: "Emperor, why are you doing this?" ”

Emperor: "Of course I'm for the sake of the country!" If it can be proved that he is fake, he can bring down the traitor of Bai Hexing! ”

Queen Mother: "What about Ah Chuan?" He's your own son! You can't bear to unjustly kill him? ”

Huan Tong: "As a royal family, I have enjoyed the glory and wealth, but I also have to bear sacrifices!" So he is, so I am! The same goes for Huan Ling, who was sent to the north! This is his fate! Not to mention...... I didn't plan to kill him, just send him away......"

The Queen Mother shook her head: "It's so unfair to him like this!" When did he enjoy prosperity and wealth? He suffered so much in the north that Ling Yi also lost his life for it! ”

As soon as he talked about the first empress Mu Lingyi, the emperor lost his calm, and his tone was hateful: "She herself has to follow!" I begged her not to go, and she had to go! She died over there, can you blame me? ”

The Queen Mother was silent for a moment and asked, "I don't know what you did with her back then." Now that it's been so many years, she's gone, are you still haunted? Even with the anger of Ah Chuan? I have no opinion on how to deal with the white crane, is there no better way? Do you have to sacrifice your own son? ”

The emperor pointed outside: "100,000 ironclad soldiers are still surrounding the capital!" It's like a sword hanging over our heads! What's a better way? ”

Queen Mother: "You have read so many sage books since you were a child, you won't know that benevolence, virtue, and faith are the way to govern the country!" The more you show mercy to him, the more you can make the great families submit and support! The white crane line did not dare to act rashly. The more you treat the returning proton like you do today, and insist on supporting Huanyi, the more unpopular you will be! Don't let Baihexing have the right to speak, rebel against you, and become famous! ”

The fire in the emperor's heart rose slowly, and his tone was full of resentment: "Queen Mother, my son has passed the age of not being confused, and he has been sitting in this position for twenty or thirty years, so I don't need you to teach me how to be an emperor anymore!" If it weren't for you today, it would be a big deal! It was only today that I understood why the harem was not allowed to interfere in politics! ”

The Queen Mother was so angry that she was choked: "What did you say!" ”

The emperor said with a dark face: "In the future, please ask the queen mother to take care of her life in peace, and don't worry about other things!" ”

With that, he turned and walked out.

The Queen Mother was so angry that she stroked her chest and wept: "Emperor! You are the king of a country! You have to really think about the country! Don't get emotional! ”

The Emperor walked away without looking back.
