Chapter 189: Dark Tide Surging (8)

After a moment of silent confrontation, Emperor Dehui suddenly lowered his eyes, held the tea cup and shook it back and forth in his hand, and the tea soup in the cup rose and fell with his movements, like a fierce game, and everything in the world rose and fell.

Emperor Dehui stared at the teacup, his eyes were indistinguishable, and then he slowly spoke: "I know that the queen mother is worried about the safety of the royal family, but if this matter is made by the queen mother's words to speculate on the Hua family, it will really chill the courtiers, and it will affect the whole body, if it is not handled carefully, I am afraid that it will cause unnecessary turmoil." ”

He paused, then raised his eyes, a pair of narrow Danfeng eyes were sharp and indifferent, as if he wanted to peel off the queen mother's strength layer by layer, "So I hope that the queen mother can focus on the overall situation, and don't mess with the dynasty because of her own selfishness." ”

"Mourning the family and causing trouble?" The Queen Mother asked rhetorically with a sharp voice, her originally angry eyes full of shock and disbelief.

Emperor Dehui put down the teacup in his hand and bowed slightly, but did not answer.

Luo Huaizhou looked at the two of them, and a deep sadness arose in his heart.

Connected by blood, flesh and blood, this is the most inseparable intimate relationship in the world, it should rely on each other and support each other, but I don't know when it started, there was a gap between the queen mother and the royal brother, and it gradually evolved into a contradiction, and it became deeper and deeper. Today, this contradiction seems to have reached the point where it cannot be resolved.

He has been trying to reconcile the two of them, but in the end he has been unsuccessful. Now, he doesn't know how to maintain the shaky family relationship between the two, or rather, he can't maintain it at all, because he can't make them give up their obsessions, and he can't give them what they are attached to, so he can only watch them parting ways in front of power, and even sabre-rattling, and he can't do anything about it.

The young man does not know the taste of sorrow, but always feels that the years are long and there is nothing to worry about; Now I know the taste of sorrow, but things are people and everything. If you want to talk about it, you will sigh in vain.

After the Queen Mother was stunned for a moment, her face suddenly became extremely ugly, and her whole person shook as if she had been hit hard, and then sat down on the couch in a dejected manner.

She stared at Emperor Dehui deadly, her hands clenched, as if a murderous aura spread around her body, "Okay, good, does the emperor want evidence?" She couldn't help sneering, her eyebrows were full of ruthlessness and determination, "Since you want evidence, you immediately ordered the Criminal Department to arrest all the people in the temple and interrogate them strictly, and under the heavy punishment, there will be evidence of guilt!" At that time, the truth will come out! ”

"Does the queen mother still want to torture to extract a confession?"

The Queen Mother's voice fell, and she heard Luo Huaizhou, who had been silent, suddenly speak, his voice was no longer as clear as before, but a little more cold.

When the Queen Mother and Emperor Dehui heard this, they were both stunned, and they couldn't help but turn their eyes to look at him.

I saw Luo Huaizhou's long eyelashes drooping, covering the light at the bottom of his eyes, and the hands on his legs had clenched into fists at some point, and his bones were cold white.

The atmosphere in the hall froze for a moment, and only the heat rising from the tea cup was still swaying in the air.

Although Luo Huaizhou is not involved in the court situation, nor does he have any intention of being involved in politics, after all, he grew up in the palace, and he has been at the center of power since he was a child.

In this power game, those in power need to check and balance their forces, vassals need to win over allies, and profit-seekers need to see through the cracks, thus forming a closed loop.

And in this Nanling court, it is a common trend to form a gang, and the two ends of the force are the queen mother and the left phase, once one side has any trouble, the other side will attack it in groups, and even turn black and white upside down. As long as they can achieve their respective goals and obtain benefits, the evidence can be fabricated out of thin air, and the facts can be distorted.

Thinking of this, Luo Huaizhou's Adam's apple rolled slightly, only to feel that something in his throat was sinking straight down, and his heart gradually became cold.

"What did you say?" The Queen Mother's face changed slightly, and she asked with some puzzlement, as if she didn't understand Luo Huaizhou's words, and as if she felt that she had heard it wrong.

"Erchen said," Luo Huaizhou slowly raised his head, his originally clear eyes were already covered with a layer of haze, he looked at the Queen Mother fixedly, and said word by word, "Does the Queen Mother still want to treat other people like she did to Yuewan, and do you still want to use torture to make a move?" ”

The Queen Mother was stunned, and then she understood why Luo Huaizhou didn't come to see her after returning to the palace, it was the girl who complained to him.

The Queen Mother's eyebrows sank, and she blamed Lin Wanwan's change in Luo Huaizhou's attitude towards herself and her previous confrontation with herself, and couldn't help but reprimand angrily: "There is no one in that girl's head, dare to speak out against the mourning family, the mourning family only punished her with thirty sticks, and she was already lightly punished, but I didn't expect her to be so ignorant and dare to sue the wicked first!" ”

When Luo Huaizhou heard this, he shook his head slightly, and a wry smile appeared on his lips, "Yuewan didn't tell her son anything at all, and she didn't even say a word about her punishment, but the queen mother likes to speculate for no reason, and thinks about everyone's hearts so unbearable." ”

Hearing this, Emperor Dehui's eyebrows moved slightly, Luo Huaizhou's words seemed to remind him of something, and a touch of sadness flashed in his eyes.

Luo Huaizhou looked at the Queen Mother with complicated eyes, his throat seemed to swallow a piece of Coptis chinensis, and the pain in his heart was constantly surging. He couldn't help but take a deep breath, and there was a thick disappointment in his voice: "Yuewan has always behaved modestly and calmly and generously, if you didn't indiscriminately count the abduction of your son's ministers on her and Jing Qian's heads, how could she contradict you?" ”

After listening to Luo Huaizhou's words, the Queen Mother's eyes subconsciously dodged, and she suddenly felt a little empty-hearted, but after a turn of thought, she couldn't help but be annoyed: "You still say that it wasn't the girl's complaint?" ”

Luo Huaizhou's heart sank, a layer of mist gradually appeared at the bottom of his eyes, his throat moved slightly, and his voice could not hide the sadness: "Now even what the son said, the queen mother has begun to be suspicious?" ”

Looking at Luo Huaizhou's slightly reddened eyes, the Queen Mother's heart was shocked, her face changed several times, and her eyes unconsciously scanned back and forth on his face, as if she wanted to see something from his expression, and she couldn't help but speculate secretly in her heart.

Looking at Zhou'er's expression, it really didn't look like he was lying, but if the girl hadn't told Zhou'er, how would he have learned about it? Could it be that some bastard slave in the palace chewed the root of his tongue in front of him? Or is it ...... Shi Manzi!

As soon as she thought of this, the Queen Mother couldn't help but frown, and then snorted: "The mourning family didn't see it on weekdays, thinking that the girl of the Shi family was docile and well-behaved, able to understand the general situation, and knew how to advance and retreat, but I didn't expect that she was also a eater!" ”

Speaking of this, the Queen Mother's eyes seemed to have a knife light flashing, drawing a frost color, and her tone gradually became cold: "She took the southern red agate that the mourning family rewarded her, and she was still chewing the root of her tongue in front of you, but the mourning family looked at it differently, it seems that this family matter, the mourning family has to weigh it again!" ”
