Chapter 24 Aunt Xiang gets acupuncture
Queen Mother Xie:!?(_;?
What did she hear?
Queen Mother Xie looked at the new emperor's magnanimous and calm expression and serious tone, and felt a turmoil in her heart.
Others say that jade can be broken but its whiteness cannot be changed; bamboo can be burned but its joints cannot be destroyed; even if the body dies, the name can be hung on the bamboo and silk.
Cintiq What is this?
Get dirt on your body and then jump directly into the pit?
This kind of dirty thing is said with peace of mind and confidence.
Forgive her for her limited knowledge in the past, but she didn't know that people could be so shameless.
The late emperor was seriously ill and could not go to work. She was busy helping him deal with the backlog of government affairs and could not stay by his side all the time.
Liang Shaoyuan, a mediocre and extremely filial prince, became the filial son who attended the late emperor's bedside.
A filial son?
Ah!
What a joke.
A beloved concubine and an heir, the sleeping bed was full of sweat and clouds, and I wonder if the sleepy late emperor had even noticed it.
Queen Mother Xie was angry, but more heartbroken.
She had a deep love for the late emperor and his young wife. Although they were not in harmony with each other, they still had a close relationship with each other.
The late emperor was humiliated, which made her feel embarrassed.
"presumptuous!"
Queen Mother Xie slapped her palm heavily on the table. The table shook slightly, and the tea in the cup spilled out, leaving a water stain.
"The great ancestor and the late emperor are both heroes. You don't regard them as role models, but you slander their reputations. It's deplorable!"
How can such a person be qualified to inherit the throne?
Empress Dowager Xie's harsh words made Liang Shaoyuan's head lower and lower.
No matter how mediocre he is, he is still a prince, and he has studied the classics of saints in Chongwen Hall and Hongwen Hall, and understood right and wrong.
The reason is not that he doesn't understand it, but that he indulges it voluntarily.
He is no longer the weak prince who was cautious about his words and deeds in the palace and needed to be looked up to.
The emperor's father is seriously ill and the queen mother supervises the country. He is the future emperor.
His father's beloved concubine threw herself into his arms, so why not accept it?
It is also appropriate to learn from the essence of what was passed down from father to son in the country.
Anyway, when my father was in power, he always advertised openness and tolerance.
Liang Shaoyuan didn't dare to express his anger, and secretly continued to glance at Cui Canwen with his peripheral vision.
"Queen mother, I am the emperor."
A simple sentence successfully gave Liang Shaoyuan a heart attack again.
Well, this is what he thinks deepest in his heart.
"Actually, it's not like I can't issue an edict to admit my mistakes." Cui Canwen said in a playful voice.
Since Liang Shaoyuan wants to watch a show, let's just make a grand appearance together.
"I am sincere in my intention to reform, and I believe the ministers will believe it."
Liang Shaoyuan suddenly raised his head and shouted "No!"
Even if he cannot be a wise king who will be remembered throughout the ages, he will never be a faint king who is criticized verbally and written down in history books.
After taking the throne for more than a year, he issued an imperial edict to punish himself. How would he establish his prestige during his long career as king?
Cui Canwen really tried her best to kill him!
Queen Mother Xie controlled her hand that wanted to throw the tea cup away, her suspicious eyes constantly flickering between Liang Shaoyuan and Cui Canwen.
Very suspicious.
Both the queen and the new emperor are suspicious.
It's not that she looked down on Liang Shaoyuan, but if Liang Shaoyuan had the momentum to confront her, she wouldn't be the one to supervise the country when the late emperor was seriously ill.
And the queen...
It seems that I have become stupid.
The rumored couple’s appearance?
Queen Mother Xie remained silent and did not rush to make a judgment.
"This matter needs to be discussed in the long term."
"Except for the Jiao Ya matter, today the Ai family should reiterate that no one in the Yong harem can surpass Empress Cui."
"Your Majesty impulsively punishes the Queen. I hope it will be the last time."
"For the sake of a demon concubine, it is not shameful to ban the queen."
The new emperor is really not like the previous emperor at all, but has a bit of the absurd spirit of the previous emperor who subjugated his country.
No daughter-in-law or sister-in-law will be spared.
Liang Shaoyuan was ashamed and panicked, but Cui Canwen followed the good advice.
"This is what my mother taught me."
"I am a son who has no father and no father, and has a rotten heart. Even if he is struck by lightning from the sky and haunted by evil ghosts every night, he deserves it."
Cui Canwen pursed her lips and suppressed a smile.
"Everything I will suffer from now on will be my retribution."
The more he listened, the more gloomy Liang Shaoyuan's face became, as if water was dripping from his eyes.
He and Cui Canwen are at odds with each other!
As long as he returns to his body and gains power again, he will definitely cut Cui Canwen into pieces and crush her bones into ashes.
Queen Mother Xie was stunned for a while after hearing this, and her mind was very confused.
I can't talk anymore today.
Queen Mother Xie waved her hand, "Aijia is tired, you can leave first."
Weird things happen every year, especially this year.
Cui Canwen and Liang Shaoyuan looked at each other, snorted softly, and left Xingqing Hall in a hurry.
Outside the hall, Liang Shaoyuan was smiling, and put his hand on Cui Canwen's wrist, "Your Majesty, can you move to the Kunde Hall?"
Cui Canwen raised her eyebrows and shook off Liang Shaoyuan's hand.
If you have something to say, say it nicely. Why are you trying to pinch someone?
"Dragon body is precious, don't you understand?" Cui Canwen rubbed her wrist and rolled her eyes.
Liang Shaoyuan was furious, gritted his teeth, and without any doubt pulled Cui Canwen's sleeve and stepped onto the chariot.
If we don't talk, he won't be able to control his anger.
Cui Canwen did not refuse anymore. On the chariot, one person faced the same direction, once again vividly demonstrating the word "love each other".
…
In the Xingqing Hall, Queen Mother Xie changed out of her complicated attire and frowned, "Xiangjia, do you think Cui Yatou is weird?"
Xiangjia is a highly respected old nun beside the Queen Mother. She accompanies Queen Mother Xie from the boudoir to the Queen and then to the Queen Mother, all the way through thick and thin.
While massaging the acupuncture points on Queen Mother Xie's head, Xiangjia thought, "This old slave also feels this way."
"Please tell me one by one the doubtful points you have observed." Queen Mother Xie narrowed her eyes and said.
"Empress Cui's attitude towards Concubine Jiao is extremely ambiguous, which really puzzles me."
"Besides, Queen Cui's temperament seems a bit restrained."
To put it bluntly, it’s just petty behavior.
"And His Majesty's move to mobilize troops and mobilize the masses is also thought-provoking."
Xiangjia was calm and relaxed, and spoke honestly and sincerely.
The Queen Mother Xie was silent. The girl of the Cui family had more than just changed her temperament.
