"Come here, help my mother to rest." The emperor raised his voice, "My mother is old, and it is inevitable that she will have some petty tempers. You slaves should also be restrained and don't indulge in everything. If the conversation is overturned,
In the marketplace, that’s how I ruined my mother’s reputation!”
The Queen Mother stared at her son and felt dizzy. Her voice finally burst out of her throat and she said tremblingly: "Come here, call Hanyu over. The Ai family wants to see her. Go!"
"Hanyu is already married to Guan Yucheng, the second son of Guan Mansion. Mother, haven't you forgotten? She has now accompanied the consort to the border. Even if you want to see her immediately, you have to send someone to see her.
After receiving the letter, she can come back, but it will take some time." The emperor said gently, "If mother misses Hanyu, let her come back to see you in a few days. However, there are arrangements for my son to let her go to the border.
It's really hard to ask her to come back to see you frequently. After all, state affairs are more important."
The Queen Mother closed her eyes, this wolf-hearted bastard.
"Find some slaves who are responsible for their duties." The emperor frowned, and in a cold voice, he said to the slaves beside him, "These slaves in my mother's courtyard have been spoiled by my mother, and they have lost the role of master and servant.
Regardless of my instructions, such slaves are the most undesirable. I entrusted my mother to you, but I was afraid that you would cause harm to my mother. As for these slaves, please beat them to death with sticks."
"How dare you!" The Queen Mother gritted her teeth and her voice came out from between her teeth, "You are the emperor, but this is the Ai family's courtyard, and the Ai family has the final say on matters here."
"The child is doing it for the mother's good," the emperor said without giving in.
"Then give it a try." The Queen Mother also lowered her voice.
Although it doesn't matter if a few slaves die, these slaves are all people she trained herself and are the most loyal to her. In the palace, if there are not many loyal slaves around, many things will be quite troublesome and dangerous.
.
She really regretted it now. She really shouldn't have let Hanyu leave her to go to the border. Thinking that it might be the queen's idea to let Hanyu go to the border, she became even more angry and continued: "If you kill them, the Ai family will
Treat your woman twice as much, Ai Jia has never been a kind-hearted person, since she has offended Ai Jia so blatantly, as long as Ai Jia is still alive, she will definitely not let her go."
The emperor did not answer immediately. He believed what his mother said. He had witnessed with his own eyes how ruthless his mother had been in order to help him win the throne. He also believed that if he killed these slaves around his mother now,
Mother would always find a way to kill the queen and even the loyal servants around her, even though Hanyu was not with her mother now.
"Disappear immediately in front of the Ai family." The Queen Mother said in a hoarse voice.
The emperor hesitated for a moment and glanced at his mother. The expression on her mother's face was decisive and indifferent. He knew that at this time, even if he killed the few slaves who went against his will, it would only make his mother hate the queen even more, so he decided
Choose to take a step back and say, "Okay, the child will not disturb the mother's rest."
Seeing the emperor leaving with his own servants, the Queen Mother took a long breath, looked at the frightened servants in the room, and said in a deep voice: "Don't leave the courtyard these days without the consent of the Ai family.
No one is allowed to step into the courtyard. In addition, let the secret guards go to the border to contact Han Yu. Yu'er's disappearance must be related to the queen. She just doesn't want Yu'er to inherit the throne. The Ai family must not let her succeed!"
"Yes." All the servants understood that the Queen Mother had fallen out with the Emperor. Before they reconciled, their lives could be lost at any time, especially if they followed the Queen Mother's order to take the Queen Mother with her.
The servants who went to the cold palace were even more worried, not knowing whether they would live or die tomorrow.
"Is it possible that the Guan family is colluding with the Queen Mother?" A servant ventured to whisper softly, "It is Mrs. Guan of the Guan family who has repeatedly mentioned to you, the Queen Mother, that she would like to marry the Queen Mother's granddaughter, Princess Hanyu, for her young master.
After getting married, the Guan Mansion actually agreed that the eldest son of the Guan family should leave the border, give up his power at the border, and let the second son, who did not know how to use soldiers, go to the border. This makes no sense at all, and also agreed that Princess Hanyu would follow him."
The Queen Mother's brows knitted together, this servant's words made sense.
"Please be alert tonight." Yurun said softly from the side, "Don't sleep too deeply. What happened today? After the emperor went back, he mentioned the dispute with the queen mother to the queen mother. Although the emperor would not talk to the queen mother,
The Queen Mother has been at odds for too long, but the Queen Mother will definitely hold a grudge in her heart and will definitely attack those who serve the Queen Mother, so everyone must be careful."
The Queen Mother nodded, "Yu Run is right, the Queen is the most ruthless person. Although the Ai family will try their best to keep you safe, they cannot be there all the time, so you must be more vigilant."
While I was talking, I heard a knock on the door outside. At this time, I heard an ominous sound in my ears.
"Who is it?" Yurun said slightly as she walked out of the room and into the courtyard.
"According to the orders of the Emperor and the Queen Mother, I have brought several servants who are serving the Queen Mother to ask questions." It was the voice of a eunuch father-in-law, with a hint of pride in his high pitch.
The Queen Mother's face darkened, that bitch Queen actually attacked one of her own people so quickly!
Yurun looked back at the Queen Mother, who said coldly: "Tell them, the Ai family is tired and resting. If they have lived enough, they will continue to make noise outside the door. The Emperor protects the Queen, but he will not protect her."
If they scream again, the Aijia will immediately have their lives taken away."
Yurun knew that there was no turning back at this time. She was a personal servant serving the Queen Mother. If the Queen Mother and the Queen turned against each other, the first person to be unlucky would be her who served the Queen Mother personally. And the end would be sad, and the best would be the same.
She didn't want to die even though she was buried.
"The Queen Mother has already rested. Don't talk outside. It will be a death penalty to disturb the Queen Mother while she is resting." Yurun raised her voice and said as calmly as possible, "The Queen Mother has a decree. If the father-in-law who comes to deliver the message is too tired to live,
Well, the Queen Mother doesn’t mind letting her protectors send my father-in-law to the west as early as possible.”
The father-in-law who sent the message outside was suffocated. He knew that the Queen Mother was always cautious. Although she did not often come forward to manage the affairs of the harem, she always had secret guards to protect the Queen Mother, and they were good at martial arts. Thinking of this, he felt a chill go down his spine.
After hesitating for a long time, he didn't dare to say anything again.
