Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 472 The queen mother is very upset today

The sun is shining like a hazy golden yarn, and a few golden threads are sprinkled through the fan.

Zhao Xiwei's eyes fell on the flower plate, and he focused slightly, with some surprise flashing in his eyes.

The peony is graceful and rich, with layers of pink and white delicate and charming, the stamens are like beads of dew, and under the flowers and leaves, there is a small golden scissors.

A court lady standing beside the queen mother said with a smile: "This peony is called Emperor Brocade, and its branches and leaves are the thickest. If it is in the hair like this, it may hurt the queen mother's phoenix body. Please ask the princess to trim it before the hairpin."

In front of the emperor, no sharp weapon should appear.

Zhao Xi looked at the little golden scissors slightly, and moved his fingertips in the sleeves, but did not stick them out for a long time.

Although she had never been in contact with the court before, she had sent a teaching female officer in the palace before her marriage, and she carefully explained the rules of the palace.

You can touch anything, and you can't touch anything even if you beat it to death. Shangyi is talking about dead skin.

Living in the palace, whether you can be loved by the nobles is second, and the only reason is not to lose your head.Even if one is favored, there are certain rules that cannot be wronged in the slightest.

Zhao Xiwei kept this truth in mind, even in front of Li Xuanye, he never violated the rules.

She only hesitated for a moment, and the faces of the ministers in the first three rows changed: "This, this, this..."

They remembered that in the previous dynasty, a general was beheaded for bringing gold objects into the palace.

Even in this dynasty, some officials accidentally left paper cutters in official documents. Later, the chief official of Shangshutai also neglected to check. When the thick volume was presented to the imperial case, the emperor opened it, and the thin volume A paper knife with a handle is impressively in sight.

The imperial guards swarmed in with their long halberds, almost beheading several officials as assassins on the spot.

Now that the golden scissors appeared so majestically, they said they wanted the princess to cut flowers... Everyone felt cold sweat for a moment, wishing they could just pass out and pass out.

"What are you panicking about?" The queen mother sneered, picked up a red peony, closed her eyes and sniffed it gently, then opened her eyes, sarcastically: "The Ai family just thinks this flower branch is too sharp. I just want to trim it! What are you all making a fuss about? Can such a small pair of scissors kill you?"

Turning the flower slightly again, with a lazy expression: "Or do you think that Aijia will hurt the emperor with these scissors?"

"I don't dare." The ministers panicked again, and chose to pretend to be deaf and dumb based on the principle that the matter had nothing to do with themselves.

The queen mother lifted her eyelids, and glanced at the emperor again: "All these years, how the Ai family has treated the emperor, others don't understand, but you don't understand, the emperor?"

The emperor's biological mother died young and ascended the throne at a young age. The empress dowager has both the grace of nurturing and the service of assisting the government. It can be said that she has devoted her whole life to the throne.

But it is also a sin to put too much effort into it.

Because she is a woman, she should not occupy the position in the court.

But she was going to take it, not only to take it, but also to take it openly.Her phoenix throne was set up in the court hall, and she would definitely attend every great court, and she would be the first to intervene in military and state affairs.

Everyone thought she was heinous and scolded her behind her back, but what did she do wrong?
She just did something that women can't do!

The queen mother is very upset today. To be precise, it should be that she has been very unhappy in the past six months.

She raised her hand and dropped the flower branch, leaned her shoulders lazily on the throne, looked at the emperor, and said coldly: "Over the years, the Ai family has killed countless people, if they really have the intention of framing the emperor , the emperor can still have today?"

Li Xuanye got up abruptly: "Grandmother!"

The emperor's eyes flickered slightly, and he raised his hand and waved twice: "Prince, sit down quickly." He smiled at the queen mother, "The queen mother thinks that the flowers and branches are not good, so they should be trimmed carefully, so as not to hurt the queen mother's hair and skin, which is called the son's panic. .”

"That's right." Seeing the emperor showing weakness, the empress dowager's pent-up breath dissipated a lot, "The emperor is still filial, and the Ai family didn't love you for nothing!"

The emperor chuckled, his face getting darker.

After the queen mother suppressed this, and thinking that her real target was the princess, she turned her head and looked at Zhao Xiwei: "Prince, the emperor has spoken, what are you still doing?"

Her eyes were gloomy and cold, like a wild wolf lurking in the dark, staring at a little sheep caught in a trap: "Hey, Aijia knows that you have a delicate heart, and everything is fine." Be more cautious than others. This is also good, after all, you don’t show your background, and there is always nothing wrong with using your brain more, but Aijia wants to remind you—”

She smiled softly, like a chess player who knows the overall situation, so calm and unpredictable.

"Sometimes, it's not good for you to overcomplicate things. You have to know that many accidents in a person's life are unpredictable. Whether it's good luck or bad luck, it's not up to you to decide. Happiness Misfortune is doomed from birth, and you can't escape or break free. Crown Princess, do you think this is the case?"

Zhao Xiwei felt an inexplicable strange feeling in his heart.

In my impression, the queen mother is not a person who likes to talk nonsense, and she doesn't like to have such a long talk with her, so what is the special purpose of saying such a thing to myself suddenly now?
Her heart was full of turmoil, but she remained calm on the surface, and replied humbly: "I am dull, young, and have little knowledge, so I dare not speculate on the meaning of the empress dowager."

The queen mother laughed again, with a strange concern: "When people live long, they can understand many things. Although the princess is young, the Ai family thinks that you are a smart person, so they want to make a point. Let me remind you, I believe that in the near future, you will soon understand the kindness of Aijia."

Zhao Xiwei felt a "bang" in his heart, like a boulder falling into the water, causing waves to splash.

"Okay, okay." The eldest princess came out to smooth things over in a timely manner, and said angrily: "The queen mother is really, what to say all of a sudden in a good manner, it seems that such a delicate and weak girl is scared like this."

Of course Zhao Xiwei wasn't scared, she was just thinking about the Queen Mother's intentions.

"Soon, you will soon understand the kindness of Aijia"

These words sounded as ordinary as the elders teaching the younger generation, but for some reason, perhaps because of her natural sensitivity, she felt that there was some secret hidden behind these words.

Could it be that something will happen soon?

With thoughts hidden in her heart, her expression faded a bit, but she was still very grateful for the eldest princess' rescue.

From an emotional point of view, the eldest princess should hate her, after all her existence is an indelible pain to Xu Yunjiao.

But the eldest princess never showed even the slightest bit of disgust, and even every time she was made things difficult by the queen mother, it was the eldest princess who came out to mediate.
