Faced with the sudden questioning of the Empress Dowager, the Empress suddenly panicked, neither sitting nor standing. She hesitated for a while before responding, “I don’t mean that, I…”
“What do you mean?” The Empress Dowager snorted coldly, “I saw that the Ai family did not care about the affairs of the harem, and the harem was about to change, and you dare to deal with the daughter of the important ministers of the court at will. If you still refuse to admit it, the Ai family will take you to the emperor to ask, see if the emperor recognizes you or not!”
After hearing the Empress Dowager’s words, the Empress immediately became depressed. Although she hated her heart, she pretended to smile and coaxed the Empress Dowager and said, “I naturally would not think so. I just saw that the child was misbehaving and wanted to punish the big warning. If the Empress Dowager thinks this is inappropriate, I just don’t do it.”
The queen said as she looked at the empress dowager’s expression carefully. Princess Wen was a kind-hearted person. Seeing that the queen was so embarrassed, she persuaded her in the ear of the empress dowager: “The Queen Mother, don’t be angry. The Queen Mother may have her own difficulties, and she didn’t mean to say that…”
After hearing Princess Wen’s words, the queen mother, who looked cold and cold, pursed her lips and patted her hands with some angrily, saying, “You are the kindest and have kept you up until you grow up. Why didn’t you learn any ruthless methods? If you marry you out in the future, aren’t you going to cry and come back to find the Ai family?”
The queen looked at the empress dowager’s face and felt humiliated. Although she felt humiliated in her heart, she was still
She flattered and said kindly: “Princess Wen is the most caring and sensible child. The Empress Dowager is blessed. Unlike my son Chen’er, who is always careless and does not know how to be polite to me.”
She knew naturally that although the Empress Dowager was angry, she had been trained, and she would not remove her throne of queen just because of a small female official. Now, a few flatteries are inevitable, and the empress dowager will be finished after she lets her breath go.
As expected, the queen mother looked at her again and said in a stiff tone: “Chen’er is a good child. Don’t ask him to follow you every day to be filial. A good man is determined by all directions. How can he always mingle with women?”
“Yes,” the queen responded with gritted teeth.
The Empress Dowager pondered for a while, and then suddenly said, “You think it is inappropriate to marry Wen’er and the princess, then do you have any way to solve this problem?”
Solve this problem?
The queen couldn’t help but frown and hesitated to the queen mother, “I’m not…”
She couldn’t figure out why the queen mother refused to let her two granddaughters marry to the frontier, so why did she put this matter on her head in a blink of an eye? Could it be that she would ask the emperor not to marry the two princesses?
Looking at the queen’s tongue-in-law, the queen smiled and her tone slowed down a lot: “The queen’s mother is in the world, so the queen’s throne will naturally be able to sit steadily. If this is the case, the queen’s throne will beThe matter is done properly, but the Ai family can ask the emperor to add another imperial edict to your mother, which can be considered as a reward for your children in the harem. “
The queen finally understood that the queen mother used both soft and hard tricks. She was swift and said something she shouldn’t say, and then calmed her expression down. She continued to say it as she said, showing her face, and completely shirking the matter to her, making her unable to say anything.
Sure enough, Jiang was still old. No matter how much the queen planned it, she was defeated by this old thing.
The queen cursed in her heart, but she tried her best to make the matter more reckless: “The queen mother didn’t know that this matter was decided by the previous dynasty, and the imperial edict had been announced to various palaces. I am not trying to speak for the two princesses, but I am really not willing to do anything, so I would like to ask the Empress Dowager to forgive me more…”
“Then what you mean,” the Empress Dowager stared at her sinisterly and said, “Is it going to disobey the Ai family’s will and will not accept the imperial edict given by the Ai family for your mother? ”
