It is difficult for a man from outside to enter and exit the harem, and even if he enters and leaves, he must have an imperial edict or oral order from the emperor. However, it is obvious that Empress Dowager Zhuang herself has such rights.

Grand Tutor Zhuang was brought into Renshou Palace by Grand Duke Qin. Grand Duke Qin was well-behaved and smiled appropriately, so it was hard to guess what the purpose of Queen Mother Zhuang summoned people to the palace.

It still thinks that something is good.

Grand Tutor Zhuang went to the study room of the side hall. Queen Mother Zhuang had already read the memorials for a morning, but due to the backlog for several days, some of them were still not approved.

"Empress Dowager." Grand Tutor Zhuang entered with a smile and bowed his hand.

Empress Dowager Zhuang ignored him and just kept rumbling through the mountains of folds in her hands.

The Grand Tutor Zhuang thought that Empress Dowager Zhuang didn't hear it, so he took a step forward and said again: "Empress Dowager?"

"The Ai family is not deaf." Empress Dowager Zhuang said calmly, without even raising her eyelids, and put a book of not being presented to the emperor.

Only then did the expression of Grand Tutor Zhuang change slightly.

But thinking about the news I heard this morning that a person who was valued by the emperor hanged himself. The emperor suspected that it was the Queen Mother's work and ran to Renshou Palace to make a big fuss with the Queen Mother. It must be because the Queen Mother was in a bad mood, right?

Master Zhuang thought so.

Empress Dowager Zhuang read seven or eight more memorials before she said lightly: "You are very arrogant recently."

"Um?"

Grand Tutor Zhuang was confused by these sudden words. He looked at Queen Mother Zhuang in surprise and suspiciously: "Why did the Empress Dowager say this? What did you do wrong?"

Queen Mother Zhuang said indifferently: "Your hands are stretched too long, and some people are not something you can move."

Grand Tutor Zhuang looked surprised: "I don't understand."

"If you don't understand, just listen to the Ai family." Empress Dowager Zhuang said coldly, "The Zhuang family has been in a century of foundation, has been a talented man for generations, and has become a high-ranking official. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the first clan in the capital. But over the years, the love of the Ai family has gradually developed your self-esteem and unrestrained personality. Do you think that no matter what you do, the Ai family will have to take care of you? Yes, the Ai family is a member of the Zhuang family, and you are the mother of the Ai family. If the Ai family is in power for a day, they will protect you for a day. But have you ever thought about how long the Ai family can protect you?"

Grand Tutor Zhuang changed his color: "The Queen Mother!"

Empress Dowager Zhuang said with regret: "If the bow is full, it will be broken, and if the water is full, it will overflow. You only see that the Ai family is at its peak, but you don't see that the building behind the sun is about to collapse, and the lonely wood is hard to support! The Ai family is old and not many years old, and you are old. The talents of the Zhuang clan have withered, and the green and yellow are not connected. All the direct lineages are too useless. Only Zhuang Yuheng's white jade is slightly flawed, and the essence is carved, or the flaws are not covered. But even this child is about to be raised by you!"

"The Queen Mother!"

Grand Tutor Zhuang lifted the hem of his clothes and knelt down with fear and fear. Of course, he didn't understand more.

I don’t understand why the Empress Dowager said this, nor how did the Empress Dowager destroy her majesty like this?

Not to mention that Empress Dowager Zhuang has at least ten years of life, even if she doesn’t have one, His Highness Ning is getting richer. As long as he inherits the throne, why worry that the Zhuangjia can’t continue his century of glory?

But there are ears in the partition walls, and he still dare not say some things too much.

"Empress Dowager, don't say that, you want to be blessed for a hundred years."

"Hmph, a hundred years? If the Ai family had not been rescued by Xiao Liulang and Gu's sister-in-law, they would have been buried in peace, right?"

The Grand Tutor Zhuang seemed to be suddenly touched. He looked at Empress Dowager Zhuang in shock: "The Queen Mother... is blaming me for suppressing Xiao Liulang? He is Your Majesty's man! How can I tolerate him growing stronger in Hanlin!"

Empress Dowager Zhuang slapped the note in her hand on the table with a snap: "Whose person he is can be told to the Ai family!"

Grand Tutor Zhuang was shocked by Queen Mother Zhuang's powerful aura. He hadn't seen Queen Mother Zhuang become so angry for many years.

Cold sweat came out from his forehead. He bowed his hand and lowered his head: "I don't dare."

Empress Dowager Zhuang said coldly: "What the Ai family talks about is state affairs, political affairs, and family affairs, but you only hear about private affairs! The Ai family has put all his efforts into waste, it's fine! The Ai family will not talk about it anymore! Ai family will have a fight between brothers and sisters, and the Ai family will give you eight words: fame and fortune are achieved, and they will retreat bravely!"

The Grand Tutor Zhuang clenched his fists and said with his eyes as if he was torched: "What a rush to retreat! Has the efforts of the banker's generation been wasted? The banker took the helm of the court and had great achievements. Which of the country of Dazhao Kingdom is not as good as the banker's contribution?"

Empress Dowager Zhuang's eyes were cold, and her powerful aura rushed over like a torrent: "The credit is from the Qin family, and the country is from the Qin family. If you say such a ruthless word, Master Zhuang, do you want to rebel!"

Grand Tutor Zhuang was shocked, he was stunned for a moment, bowed his hand and said, "I have made a mistake."

Empress Dowager Zhuang coldly withdrew her gaze: "This is all the words of Ai's family, you can retreat."

“…Yes, I’m going to leave!”

Master Zhuang stood up.

The hot wind in June blew, and he suddenly felt that his back was soaked with cold sweat.

After Grand Tutor Zhuang left, Eunuch Qin brought a cup of tea into it.

He guarded the door of the study and naturally heard the conversation inside. He put the newly brewed hot tea to the Queen Mother Zhuang and said with emotion: "I didn't expect that the Queen Mother would consider the banker so long. He was a servant who had a low vision. He thought that the Queen Mother Xuanzhuang's Grand Tutor came to the palace just to vent his anger for Xiao Xiu."

Empress Dowager Zhuang picked up the memorial and snorted coldly.

The long-term bullshit.

Just a speech.

"If the Ai family only talks to him, no matter how small the matter is, it will be a big deal. If the Ai family talks to him several big deals, Liulang's affairs will become a small deal. Since it is a small deal, there is no need to worry about it."

Eunuch Qin looked bitter and revenge: "Uh... the slave is stupid."

Empress Dowager Zhuang's mind flashed through someone's complaint and fell down on a horse. She was in a bad mood and was embarrassed to have some patience with Eunuch Qin: "I heard that you have a little turtle recently?"

Eunuch Qin smiled embarrassedly: "The Queen Mother's information is so well-informed."

Empress Dowager Zhuang said indifferently: "It's not that the Ai family is well-informed, but that little turtle climbed to the feet of Ai's family that day. The Ai family looked at their birth, which was different from the ones you raised before."

Eunuch Qin has no other hobbies, so he loves to raise a turtle. As the saying goes, a thousand-year-old turtle is a turtle, and this turtle is a turtle. The turtle has a longer life than a turtle. He thought that if he raised a turtle, he would not be able to survive for a hundred years.

Empress Dowager Zhuang Yun Danfeng said: "That one is well raised, so take it to stew the soup at night."

"Ah?" Eunuch Qin's face changed drastically.

"What? I can't bear to bear?" Empress Dowager Zhuang sighed, "Recently, the Ai family fought with these turtle turtle tyrants. The Taoist priest said that eating one would relieve the evil spirit. If you can't eat it, you can only send it away. From then on, the Renshou Palace is not allowed to raise turtle tyrants."

Eunuch Qin said aggrievedly: "Then, that slave will take Dequan to you for stewing it."

"Who wants to eat that thing?" Empress Dowager Zhuang was making a metaphor with him.

Eunuch Qin suddenly realized: "Ah... Xiao Xiu is that little turtle..."

Empress Dowager Zhuang called out a cold look!

Who is the turtle?

The Ai family thinks you are the old turtle!

"Ahem!" Eunuch Qin embarrassedly, "I am a slut, but I am a turtle... But..." He got back to the point, "You are quite clever."

Queen Mother Zhuang sneered faintly.

Clever?

Her words are also true, but the dealer is unwilling to retreat bravely, and he cannot retreat bravely.

They couldn't get out of this vortex since early.

Today, Imperial College and Qinghe Academy both finished school early. Nanxiang and Master Lu went out for three days if they had something to do. Therefore, Gu Xiaoshun and Gu Yan didn't have to go to learn the arts in the past few days.

Three little men gathered at home.

Last night, Xiao Jingkong fell asleep when he came back from the palace. He didn't have time to distribute the gifts his aunt brought, and he forgot them when he went out in the morning. Only then did he remember them.

Xiao Jingkong carried the brocade box out and ran to the main hall with a dada: "It was my aunt who asked me to take it!"

The things my aunt asked me to bring were usually for everyone.

Yao sat in the hall to enjoy the cool air, smiling and watching a few children playing in the main hall.

She felt that such days were lively and beautiful, and it was a life that she had never dreamed of in her dreams for more than ten years.

"Oh, I can't open it!" Xiao Jing's empty-handed strength was too small.

"I'll do it!" Gu Xiaoshun rolled up her sleeves and pried open the box with a clatter.

The box is not big, after all, it is too big to hold it when it is big, but it is not small, and there are a lot of things inside.

Three little heads squeezed together and looked at the gift in the brocade box.

Xiao Jingkong took out the gifts one by one: "Maoyan, this is Brother Yan's! Gem Knife, this is Brother Xiaoshun's! Silver Needle, Jiaojiao! Golden Bobo, I'm!"

Then there is an embroidered picture album, which is obviously for Yao's family.

"The bad brother-in-law is not there." Xiao Jingkong shook his head and said, "It's so pitiful!"

The poor Xiao Liulang entered the house bravely and placed a brocade box twice as big as the small Jingkong brocade box with a snap.

The three younger brothers opened their eyes wide, looked at Jinbo, and then looked at him.

"What?" Xiao Jingkong asked.

Xiao Liulang answered him with practical actions. He opened the brocade box and slowly took out the things inside and placed them on the table. The first was the token of Renshou Palace, the second was a night pearl the size of a fist, and then a inkstone made of ten thousand years of warm jade, and then...

He moved gracefully, without any rush or slowness, and took half a quarter of an hour to finish the gadget inside.

A full table covered!

The three little men's eyes were staring straight.

Xiao Jingkong was stunned: "Is it yes... did my aunt give it?"

So many good things!

Xiao Jingkong: "Which one is for me?"

Xiao Liulang stretched out his slender fingertips, wandered around the gift, and picked up a golden lock that blinded people's eyes: "My."
