Liu E's face was gloomy and her eyes were cold: "Say, make it clear!"

Kobayashi's voice trembled: "Reply to the Empress, in order not to let the emperor discover it, I dare not get too close, and only eavesdrop on their conversations from a distance. Whenever Tai Sui introduced things to His Majesty, she would tell His Majesty the origin of this thing..."

"Tell me the point." Liu E shouted lightly.

Xiao Linzi trembled and immediately speeded up his speech: "Yes! For example, Tai Sui took His Majesty to try Huainan snacks yesterday, and introduced the origin, price, origin of the snacks, and how many similar snacks are there in Beijing, how many people have raised, and how much income these people have by operating these things..."

When Liu E heard this, her face looked a little better, but she still snorted coldly and waved her hand: "Okay, you go down."

"yes."

Kobayashi knelt down and took a few steps back, then quietly got up and retreated.

As soon as he left the door, his body became cold and found that at some point his clothes were already penetrated by cold sweat. He raised his sleeves and wiped his forehead with cold sweat, and smiled bitterly in his heart.

Tai Sui, brother, I can help you so much. Don’t cause any trouble, otherwise no one can save you!

The next morning, after getting off the court, Zhao Zhen almost trotted back to the bedroom and changed into casual clothes. He was excitedly preparing to go out when suddenly the eunuch's name came from outside the door.

"The Empress Dowager is here."

Zhao Zhen was a little surprised. Why did his mother come here so early? However, despite his doubts, he still walked out to greet him quickly. But as soon as he reached the door, Empress Dowager Liu E had already rushed in.

Several eunuchs and palace maids quickly lowered their heads and knelt down. Liu E waved her hands out without expression. The eunuchs and palace maids quickly got up and went out, not daring to speak...

At this time, only a mother and son were left in the house.

"The child has seen his mother." Zhao Zhen hurriedly paid homage.

In the past, Liu E always wore casual clothes in the palace, but today she rarely wore a heavy and cumbersome phoenix crown and robe. She stood in front of the little emperor with majestic and imposing aura.

Zhao Zhen was a little overwhelmed and did not dare to speak for a moment.

Liu E was straight, and looking at Zhao Zhen's casual clothes, her already gloomy face made her look even more ugly.

"Where are you going to go in this outfit?"

Seeing that his mother's face was not good, Zhao Zhen hesitated for a moment and still told the truth: "My son is preparing to leave the palace."

"Are you going to find Tai Sui again?" Liu E's voice was cold and her eyes were filled with cold light.

"Yes." Zhao Zhen's mouth squirmed and nodded.

Liu E took a deep breath, suppressed her anger, walked slowly, walked to the table beside her and sat down, and asked in a low voice: "Where are you going to play today?"

Seeing her attitude, Zhao Zhen was a little unhappy, frowned slightly and retorted: "Why is it fun? My son is leaving the palace to do a serious matter."

Liu E sneered, glanced at her son with a disdainful expression: "Serious business? Let's talk about it, what kind of business is it?"

Zhao Zhen was already in adolescence at this time, and he could be said to be the most rebellious age in his life. At this stage, the most annoying thing is to be asked around, keeping in mind this and that.

This is a commonality among human beings. No matter what status or status it is, even if you are the emperor, you will be the same.

At this moment, Zhao Zhen felt angry and looked at Liu E with confidence, and said hard: "Shu Sichuan and Sichuan have a severe drought, and some refugees have entered Beijing. I heard from Tai Sui that there are rich households in the south of the city every day. My son wants to go and see what's going on. Is this wrong?"

The Queen Mother snorted coldly: "That's all?"

Seeing his mother's attitude, the little emperor finally couldn't help but get angry and his voice became louder.

"Is this still small? How long does it take for refugees to walk from Sichuan to Beijing? How many people starved to death halfway through such a long way? What did the officials along the way do? Are there any relief to the victims? As the saying goes, seeing is true, hearing is false, and the son doesn't go to see it in person, how can he know how many refugees there are, and how can he know how the government resettled them?"

The empress dowager's face became increasingly ugly. She stood up and pointed at the little emperor with a grudge and scolded: "Do you still remember your identity? You are the emperor and you are the emperor! If there are refugees entering Beijing, you can order the Ministry of Revenue to provide relief for money and grain, or you can order the Ministry of Works to select a place to build a shed and resettle refugees. These things can be solved by just one sentence in the palace. Is it necessary to leave the palace in person? Humph, I think it was the idea that Tai Sui came up with again?"

Zhao Zhen looked at Liu E unconvincedly and said angrily: "Mom, I think you have a prejudice against Tai Sui. Yes, this is the idea that Tai Sui came up with, but I also think it is correct. Every time I go to court, all officials say that the country is peaceful and the people are safe and the people live and work in peace, but what is the truth? If it weren't for Tai Sui's mention, my son would not know that it has not rained for several months in Sichuan. This is called peace and stability? This is called..."

"Stop!" The Empress Dowager interrupted without waiting for him to finish his words and shouted: "I don't care about your reasons, in short, you just can't leave the palace today."

Zhao Zhen was so angry that he trembled all over: "Mom, why are you... unreasonable?"

"I'm not reasonable?" Liu E stood up in anger, with a hint of unhealthy blush on her face, obviously very angry. She raised her fingers and pointed at Zhao Zhen and shouted loudly: "My biggest reason is to protect you. The so-called son of a daughter cannot sit in the hall. As the emperor, you are responsible for the whole world. If you encounter an accident while going out, what are the consequences? "

Zhao Zhen retorted unconvincedly: "Where did so many accidents come from? I just went to see the porridge for refugees, but it wasn't about going to the battlefield."

"You..." Liu E was so angry that she took a deep breath, calmed her mood, and after a while she suppressed her anger, she said in a deep voice: "You know that you are giving porridge to refugees? Do you know how many refugees are there? Who are they? What if there are evil people in it and assassinate you, what will you do?"

"I have the protection of the imperial guards and Tai Sui and others. Even if there are evil people, I am not afraid of assassinating them." Zhao Zhen curled his lips, looking dissatisfied. Obviously, this reason could not convince him at all.

Liu E was furious, and stood up and walked out hatefully, saying without looking back: "Hmph, you have not grown up yet, your wings are hard? Leave them in the palace to reflect."

She walked out the door and shouted, "Come on, close the door for me, and don't allow the emperor to step out of the bedroom. If he slips away, Ai Jia only asks you."

"Mom, mom, you are unreasonable!" Zhao Zhen was shocked when he heard this, and got up and rushed out. However, two eunuchs had already come over and closed the door quickly and locked him in the room.

"Let me out, let me out..."

Liu E quickly returned to the harem, her face looked extremely ugly. She sat down with hatred and waved her hand outside.

Seeing this, the eunuchs and palace maids were so scared that they shivered and quickly retreated.

"Bastard, bastard..." Liu E became more and more angry as she thought about it. She picked up a white porcelain teacup and threw it to the ground with a bang.

The two eunuchs guarding the gate outside the gate were so scared that they trembled. When they looked at each other, they could see the horror in each other's eyes.

Although this empress dowager usually looks gentle and has a good temper, she rarely takes away her anger. Even if she makes some minor mistakes, she usually just smiles her.
