"The Ai family was deceived by her weak appearance back then, but she was not allowed to enter the palace. The fool Ning Wang was infatuated with her. For her sake, she would rather have a quarrel with the Ai family. Because the Ai family did not raise him personally, they felt that they owe him a lot, so they had to rely on him..."

Pei Xiaoqing was still a little disbelief, so she looked at Concubine Yu. Concubine Yu said, "Xiaoqing, don't persuade her. She has been in charge of the harem for decades and thought that everything was under her control. Humph, people who are too self-righteous are always unwilling to admit their failure."

Could it be that Concubine Yu also had the same idea as the Empress Dowager?

Pei Xiaoqing really wants to go to Huguo Temple and ask the princess personally.

However, his eyes lit up and said, "No, the Queen Mother, it shouldn't be about the mother's business. Everything should be a conspiracy set up by the Demon Sect Master. Look, he had an affair with Concubine Gu of the Prince Ning's Mansion and an affair with the Queen. Chu Yunyao is not the biological son of King Ning, and the prince..."

"Stop!" The Queen Mother's face turned dark: "Although the Queen is stingy and bold, she dares not slander the Emperor's face. You set up a conspiracy and slander the Prince, just for the sake of orthodox struggle, where does the royal face be placed? For the sake of power, you really do everything."

Seeing that the prince was so angry that he was about to faint, Pei Xiaoqing had to shut up and stop persuading him.

Concubine Yu went over and pulled her: "Let's go, don't pay attention to this stubborn person. She is the most self-righteous. Let's go back to the palace."

How could Pei Xiaoqing leave the Empress Dowager at this time? She had to say, "Grandma Tomorrow, please go back first, I will accompany the Empress Dowager."

Concubine Yu glared at her and left with her sleeves.

The Empress Dowager's face looked ugly and her breathing was a little rushing. Pei Xiaoqing had to help her lie down. The imperial physician came in loudly, but the Empress Dowager grabbed her arm and said:

"Don't...don't alarm others."

Pei Xiaoqing worriedly said, "Grandma, you are in a bad health. If you don't seek medical treatment, I'm afraid..."

"It's better to die. Once you close your eyes, you don't have to think about anything. It's just... I just have no shame to see the late emperor." The queen mother's tears rolled down and she said with pain.

"Grandma, you can really put aside the troubles, power disputes, etc., let him go. You are just an old and weak lady, and many things are not something you can control." Pei Xiaoqing gently wiped the queen mother's tears with a veil.

The Queen Mother murmured: "I... am I just... an ordinary old lady?"

"Yes, when you were young, you were just a weak woman. When you were old, you were a weak old lady. You should be at the age of Yiyang Tiannian. Those things outside are men. You don't need to be responsible. Even if you meet the emperor's grandfather, you can ask questions and ask for no reason."

"Isn't that pretending to be garlic?" the queen mother said with wide eyes.

"Well, sometimes, kind-hearted panic is necessary, don't you know? The four most difficult words to understand in life are rare to be confused. Sometimes, it is wise to be confused." Pei Xiaoqing said solemnly.

"It's rare to be confused?" The Empress Dowager murmured and savored Pei Xiaoqing's words, and tears flowed down again, "Shangguan Ruoxi just pretended to be confused. He pretended to be confused for decades. In the end, the Ai family realized that she was the most transparent person, the most determined and the most cruel person."
