Since the emperor ascended the throne, the Queen Mother has not left Cining Palace for many years.
Even on the occasion of his birthday every year, Emperor Liu would have dinner in Cining Palace with several high-ranking concubines.
He looks completely free from desires and desires, and has no fight with the world.
Although Emperor Qianyuan was the Queen Mother's own son and came to greet the Queen Mother every day, he did not dare to say that he could guess what his mother was thinking.
The Queen Mother is now nearly sixty years old, but she is well-maintained and looks like she is in her early thirties.
At this moment, her eyes were gentle, her expression was soft, and there was a gentle smile on her lips. She looked at Emperor Qianyuan lovingly: "Your Majesty, you are more diligent in coming today."
She had just said hello in the morning and came again at noon. If he said everything was fine, she really didn't believe it.
Emperor Qianyuan's heart was pounding. Every time he saw his mother smiling, he had the urge to turn around and run away.
This sense of fear was acquired in childhood and cannot be changed.
After recounting what happened last night, Emperor Qianyuan sighed quietly: "I came here today just to find a solution with my mother."
The Queen Mother nodded to Emperor Qianyuan and said: "These days, things like Wan Ru have really troubled the Ai family. After all, it is all the fault of the Zhao family. How can we care for an orphan under the decree to end up in such a situation?
It seems that the jade is not perfect now, so it is impossible to point her out to others. After much deliberation, it would be better to strip her of her title of princess, demote her to a commoner, and give her to Zhao Shi clearly. His Majesty thinks this is great!
"
Hearing that the Queen Mother said "give" instead of "granting a marriage", Emperor Qianyuan immediately understood what the Queen Mother meant.
After thinking for a while, Emperor Qianyuan frowned: "Although she was demoted to a commoner, she was once the princess of the royal family. If she is openly given to Zhao Shi as a concubine, then where is the face of my royal family."
A dignified royal princess is more than capable of being the wife of a first-rank official, but now she has to be a concubine to a third-rank general who is over 10 years old. This is a loss to the royal family's reputation.
After listening to Emperor Qianyuan's words, the Queen Mother burst into laughter: "Your Majesty, you are worried about how the face of my royal family can be represented by a common people. Besides, it is not the face that can be beaten."
Seeing that the Empress Dowager's words clearly meant she had given up, Emperor Qianyuan also breathed a sigh of relief: "I just listen to the Empress Dowager."
His obedient appearance was exactly the same as when he was a child, which made the Queen Mother laugh repeatedly.
After talking about Wanru, the emperor thought of Wen Yi, the crown prince of Prince Duan who was raised in the Zhao family with Wanru.
It seems that since he has been demoted to a commoner, he is no longer suitable to raise Wen Yi, the crown prince of Prince Duan.
He also had to find a good place for Wen Yi to go.
When Emperor Qianyuan asked about opening a mansion for Wen Yi, the Queen Mother waved her hand: "The child is too young. Even if he opens a mansion, he won't be able to keep the family business. Why not send him to Chonghua Palace to live with the nine elders?"
Bar."
The people in Chonghua Palace were all princes who had not yet divided their palaces. The Queen Mother's behavior seemed to be that she was tired of the child Wen Yi.
Emperor Qianyuan frowned and was about to speak when the Queen Mother added: "Your Majesty, please find some reliable attendants for that child. The people in the border towns are fierce and unsuitable for walking in the palace."
The implication is that someone should be found to teach Wen Yi the rules. It doesn't matter if he just follows suit, and he doesn't want to lead the princes astray.
Emperor Qianyuan nodded with deep approval: "If your mother wants to give you something else, I will send it along with the imperial edict."
The Queen Mother looked at the emperor with a smile on her face again.
Emperor: "..." That's bad. The queen mother laughed again.
But the Queen Mother smiled and said: "Okay, Your Majesty, don't try to pry into the Ai family's thoughts. If you say you don't care, you won't care anymore. What does a commoner who is a concubine deserve to receive from the Heavenly Family?"
The emperor's face was stunned when his thoughts were revealed. He was about to say something to make up for it when he saw the Queen Mother stand up and said, "Your Majesty, you can stay for lunch."
Knowing that the Queen Mother didn't want to mention it again, the Emperor quickly nodded in agreement: "I'm sorry for bothering the Queen Mother."
After lunch, the emperor and the queen mother said goodbye and left. He still had many official documents that needed to be corrected.
Aunt Li helped the Queen Mother to eat in the courtyard: "My Lady, do you really think you don't care about this, just like the Princess?"
She is the elderly person next to the Queen Mother. She stays with her all year round and has no taboo in talking to her.
When she sent King Duan away, she saw the Queen Mother lying awake all night and secretly wept when no one was around.
Naturally, she also knew how deeply the Queen Mother had feelings for King Duan.
Those are the last two points of King Duan's bloodline. Can the Queen Mother really bear to ignore them?
Don't wait until later if something happens to the two children, it will still be the Queen Mother who will be sad and anxious.
After hearing what Nanny Li said, the Queen Mother smiled calmly: "Do you think His Majesty really came to the Ai family to find a solution? He came to the Ai family to ask for an explanation. I think he was forced to be anxious by Wan Ru."
Aunt Li frowned: "I don't know how Princess Duan taught her to turn Bishop Lian into such a state. I thought I should have recommended a noble girl to Prince Duan in the capital."
The Queen Mother glanced sideways at Nanny Li and saw that she still acted like she was telling the truth. She smiled and shook her head: "Princess Duan's rules are not bad, but some people are too big-hearted."
Aunt Li frowned: She has a big heart. A noble princess has become someone else’s concubine. This is called a big heart!
The two of them walked around in the yard again, and Grandma Li talked about Mrs. Li again. She couldn't help but feel sorry for Mrs. Li's experience: "He is also a poor person."
In addition to listening to operas, the harem was gossiping. After listening to Grandma Li's regretful words, the Queen Mother patted her hand: "The Ai family gave her a chance. It was because she was thinking about finding a good match for her son that she decided to marry her."
No wonder Aijia was given the chance to get entangled with that girl."
Grandma Li, who suddenly understood, nodded slightly along with the Queen Mother's words: Li's two sons have mediocre qualifications, just like the princess is the orphan of Prince Duan, and Prince Duan is the biological son of the Queen Mother. For such two children, the royal family's grace will come naturally in the future.
It won't be less.
With such a marriage, Li's son will definitely be able to pave a successful career.
It's a pity that it's not Li's son that people are thinking about, but the man in her family.
Thinking of Zhao Yuyun's accident, Grandma Li couldn't help but feel a little sad: No matter how well she planned for her son, now she took her daughter to hide in the village, and her son did not stand up to speak for her.
After walking around for five times, the Queen Mother yawned: "I'm tired, go back and rest."
Seeing that the Queen Mother was about to run away, Nanny Li grabbed her and said, "Your Majesty, the imperial doctor said that you should walk at least six times after meals. Now you are still missing one. You didn't see it yourself, did you? Your waist is taller than before.
It's two inches thicker."
The Queen Mother, who was constantly being muttered by Nanny Li: "..." How come this girl is still such a loser after so many years?
Emperor Qianyuan was obviously disgusted by what happened to Wanru. After returning, he quickly made a decree and demoted Wanru to a commoner.
As for whether a commoner will marry or remain a concubine in the future, it has nothing to do with the royal family.
Dingyuan General's Mansion had been toiled all night long. Although the buildings were all in good condition, when they fell over, the items in the rooms fell over and there were inevitably some bumps and bumps.
At this time, among the ruins of the dilapidated Zhao Mansion, grinning servants were walking everywhere.
