Cining Palace.

Empress Dowager Li was worried. When she thought of her child Zhu Yiliu's recent behavior, she felt that the time for mother and son to get together was less and less.

For this reason, she has been restless in recent days, and her eyes are pounding, so she is particularly concerned about the dynamics of the court's proposal and does not know how the ministers in the court will make things difficult for Zhu Yili.

"What? Is the court discussion not over yet?"

Empress Dowager Li restlessly, looked up and said anxiously.

At this moment, Zhao Lingsu was accompanying her and hurriedly comforted her: "Empress, it should be soon."

Empress Dowager Li sighed and murmured to herself: "Oh, I don't know what the result is."

Zhao Lingsu has always been deeply trusted by Empress Dowager Li, so he doesn’t have to speak too timidly, and said unconventionally: “Empress, no matter what the result is, won’t you have to pass this level in the end?”

"Why!"

In this breath, Empress Dowager Li sighed even harder, and she said worriedly: "Who said that, what Liu Er has done recently... If I force myself to protect her, wouldn't it be a shame for the ministers?"

Zhao Lingsu nodded and comforted him: "Empress, with Prince Lu's recent good performance, maybe you don't have to worry about it."

Empress Dowager Li disagreed and shook her head and said, "He is the prince, and the ministers in the court will not let him go easily."

Not to mention how empress Li has been adhering to the national government for so many years, thinking about how embarrassing his two children's father was King Yu!

How could she not know what role a prince should play in the palace?

For the prince, the court officials wanted to let them get married quickly and leave the capital.

What's more, he is as active as Zhu Yiliu and even interferes in the government affairs. The court officials are even more inclusive of the sand. How could he be polite to Zhu Yiliu?

How can she not worry about being a mother?

Just then, she heard a cry of eagerness to hear.

"mother."

"Empress, Empress, it's Prince Lu who is back." Zhao Lingsu said happily.

"I'm finally back, I'm finally back." Empress Dowager Li stood up suddenly, and the sadness on her face increased instead of reducing.

Zhu Yili and Fu Dahai entered together.

As soon as he came in, Empress Dowager Li couldn't wait to ask, "Liang'er, what's the situation in the court discussion?"

"Mom, it's very smooth!" Zhu Yili replied with a thrill of joy in his tone.

However, Empress Dowager Li was a smart and delicate person after all. She looked around and saw Zhu Yili’s spirits flying, and also saw Fu Dahai with a sad face.

The expressions on the two of them were very different.

There must be something wrong with it...so Empress Dowager Li asked alertly: "Is that true?"

"Mom, of course." Zhu Yiliu still answered very affirmatively.

However, looking at Fu Dahai's expression, Empress Dowager Li felt something was wrong.

She had no choice but to look at Fu Dahai and said seriously: "Eunuch Fu, you said."

Fu Dahai looked like a dead mother-like expression, and stood still without moving, his mouth squirming and wanted to say, but he didn't know what to say.

This made Empress Li even more suspicious.

She asked nervously, "Eunuch Fu, what's the matter?"

Suddenly, Fu Dahai cried out with a "wow" and scolded: "Empress, Prince Lu was impulsive and asked for punishment from Long Live, and sweared that he would not receive the court's salary or any supplies for the rest of his life!"

"What?" Empress Dowager Li was stunned, unable to believe her ears, and thought she had heard it wrong, "Speak slowly, and say it again."

Fu Dahai burst into tears, like a wounded child, and said sadly:

"Empress, in front of Emperor Long Sui and all the ministers in the court, Prince Lu vowed not to receive the court's salary and any supplies for the rest of his life after he was a vassal. Not only did Prince Lu not accept it himself, but the entire Lu Palace will not receive it in the future..."

Then, Fu Dahai reported Zhu Yili's various promises with heartache.

Empress Dowager Li understood.

She frowned, pondered for a while, and then gave two words of evaluation: "I have a talent."

Fu Dahai: "..."

Zhao Lingsu: "..."

Both of them were stunned, and they had a... what kind of meaning? Is it praise or ridicule?

Zhu Yiliu didn't hear the trick, and said with a smile: "Mom, are you agreeing?"

Empress Dowager Li did not comment, but asked back: "Did the court officials agree?"

"Um."

"Your brother agrees, too?"

"Um."

Seeing Zhu Yili nodding repeatedly and looking proud, Fu Dahai couldn't help but say:

"Empress, of course the court officials agree. They cannot ask for it. How much money can Prince Lu save for the court? As for Prince Lu, he was forced to the palace by Prince Lu and the court officials, so he had to agree!"

Empress Dowager Li looked at the youngest son in front of him who did not play according to the routine, and felt that his eyes were full of drama.

So he raised his hand and ordered Fu Dahai and Zhao Lingsu: "You two go out first."

"Yes, Empress."

Fu Dahai and Zhao Lingsu responded and went out in confusion.

As soon as he came out, Fu Dahai wiped his tears and said in confusion: "It's really strange, why does the Empress look so calm?"

Zhao Lingsu also frowned and asked disbelief: "Eunuch Fu, did Prince Lu really promise that way?"

"certainly."

"That's not the character of Prince Lu!" No matter how much Zhao Lingsu believes that she knows Zhu Yiliu, she can't understand it at this moment.

"Isn't it?" Fu Dahai replied, thinking to himself who Prince Lu is? He would give in for nothing and not seek cheap things? Then is Prince Lu still Prince Lu?

...

To be honest, Empress Dowager Li's reaction was beyond Zhu Yili's expectations.

Originally, he thought that Empress Dowager Li's reaction would be even more intense than Brother Wanli, so he moved this decision to the court meeting and said that he did not say hello to Empress Dowager Li in advance.

But who knew that after hearing this, Empress Dowager Li actually gave the evaluation of the word "you're kind".

No matter whether these two words contain more praise or ridicule, it seems that Empress Dowager Li did not shock her.

Ginger is still so spicy!

"mother."

"Liang'er, sit down first."

Empress Dowager Li pulled Zhu Yili and sat down beside her, and then said calmly:

"Come on, explain it to your mother. Why did you make such a bold, radical, and consequential decision? Is it also the guidance given to you by Empress Guanyin in her dream?"

Oh... It turns out that Empress Dowager Li thought of Empress Guanyin’s dream.

Zhu Yili smiled secretly, thinking that since this is the case, it seems easier to deal with. Give me a rod and just climb up the quilt.

As soon as he thought of this, Zhu Yiliu gave a thumbs up and praised: "Mom is really smart!"

Then, the topic changed: "But mother, why did you keep calm when you hear that your child will not receive the salary and supplies from the court for the rest of your life, and even praise her for being a child?"

Empress Dowager Li smiled slightly: "What would Liu'er think her mother would react? Liu'er could think of reducing the burden on the court and becoming the first prince in my Ming Dynasty to not receive the court's salary and supplies. Isn't it appropriate to give you the word "genuine"?"

"So, do you appreciate it?"

"Then do you think your mother is a sarcasm?"

Zhu Yiliu said again: "But aren't your mother worried that her child's future life will not be settled?"

Empress Dowager Li still replied and asked, "If you are even worried about this, then are you still my Li Caifeng's biological son?"
