After crossing, I was dragged by the bamboo horse and became a queen

Chapter 367 The so-called rules and face
Xiao Mingrui didn't stay in Chonghua Palace for long before leaving.She originally planned to go directly to the imperial study, and after truthfully conveying the empress dowager's intentions to the emperor, she would leave the palace directly.Since the prince and his wife had unavoidable reasons to muddy the harem, Xiao Mingrui decided not to intervene.

However, she had just left the Chonghua Palace when she saw Ningshuang who was beside the queen leading a lot of people towards her and stopped her on her way to the imperial study.

"Eldest princess," Ningshuang led the maids around her to salute Xiao Mingrui: "The empress is here to invite you."

Xiao Mingrui lowered his eyes, fixedly looked at Ningshuang who was kneeling on the ground, and after a long silence, he spoke, "Lead the way."

Ningshuang quickly stood up, respectfully walked beside Xiao Mingrui, and accompanied her to Weiyang Palace.

When Xiao Mingrui arrived at Weiyang Palace, Empress Chen was already waiting for her in the main hall of Weiyang Palace.Concubine Jing woke up early in the morning and accompanied the relatives of the Crown Princess to pay her respects. Later, she argued with the Empress Dowager for a long time because of the Shangshe Bureau. By the afternoon, Empress Chen was actually very tired.

She hardly ate anything for lunch, and only took a few sips of soup under Chen Baolin's persuasion.

In the afternoon when Xiao Mingrui entered the palace, Empress Chen got the news immediately. She was already ready to meet Xiao Mingrui, but who would have thought that after Xiao Mingrui came out of Shou'an Palace, he went directly to Chonghua Palace, which made her feel bad all day Empress Chen couldn't help but get even more angry.

"It's been a long time since the eldest princess entered the palace, why didn't she come to Weiyang Palace in my palace?" Empress Chen smiled slightly at Xiao Mingrui, but there was a bit of anger in her words.

"The emperor issued a decree saying that the empress's wife had a dispute with the empress, and asked me to come into the palace to persuade her, but the empress refused to listen, how could I have the nerve to come to see the empress's wife." Xiao Mingrui replied lightly, not caring about Empress Chen's aggressive attitude .

"Really!" The corners of Empress Chen's lips curled up slightly, with a smile that was not a smile: "The emperor's sister's persuasion is very interesting. She only persuades one side, but how can she explain to the emperor!"

"I have failed the emperor's expectations." Xiao Mingrui smiled, and replied in a neutral tone: "I didn't persuade the queen mother, and if I came to the emperor's wife to persuade the emperor's wife to make a concession, wouldn't it be a sideways fight? So we Originally I planned to go directly to the imperial study to convey the queen mother's intentions to the emperor, and then I left the palace, and I should not have worried about the affairs in the palace."

"Oh?" Empress Chen raised her brow carefully, "Why don't you tell me, what is the Queen Mother's plan?"

"Emperor's sister-in-law is well aware, so why bother to ask more questions." Xiao Mingrui replied, "It's just asking for severe punishment for the internal supervisor in charge of the Shangshe Bureau, and also hoping that the emperor will send someone to thoroughly investigate the accounts of the Shangshe Bureau."

"That's it?" Empress Chen suppressed the anger in her chest, and showed a slightly stiff smile to Xiao Mingrui: "Young sister said that lightly."

"If the emperor's sister-in-law is unwilling, she can go to the emperor." Xiao Mingrui replied calmly: "This is what the empress wants, but not mine. The emperor's sister-in-law asked what my mother wants, and I just answered."

"Heh..." Empress Chen, who originally expected Xiao Mingrui to speak some reason to persuade the Empress Dowager, was extremely disappointed. She sneered at Xiao Mingrui and asked, "Is the imperial sister planning to let go?"

"The emperor and the emperor's sister-in-law are not in the palace's affairs. Originally, I can't intervene." Xiao Mingrui replied: "I have already said, it is not for me, a eldest princess, to worry about it."

"Things in the palace are always complicated, and it's normal for the imperial sister to not want to intervene." Empress Chen said, "It's so worry-free, it's no wonder that the imperial daughter is still in the mood to visit the Chonghua Palace after she comes out from her mother's place. But I can't wait to tell you Crown Princess, the good news that the Queen Mother is unwilling to give in? The Crown Princess deliberately gave the renovation plan of the Jiade Palace to the Queen Mother, isn't it for this purpose!"

"The queen mother said that the emperor's sister-in-law is not effective in managing the harem, but in my opinion, she has wronged the emperor's wife." Xiao Mingrui looked into Empress Chen's eyes and smiled: "I came into the palace, where did I go, who did I talk to, what did the emperor's wife say?" It's all clear, how can this be called ineffective management? What did I say and do in Shou'an Palace, and what did I say and do in Chonghua Palace? Since the Queen's Wife has already made up her mind, why bother to call me here? Ask?"

"Is this the imperial sister's admission?" Empress Chen lowered her tone and stared at Xiao Mingrui with unkind eyes.

"Is there any difference for the Queen's Wife?" Xiao Mingrui's attitude was still calm, as if Empress Chen's anger had nothing to do with her: "If I say, I only went to Chonghua Palace because I miss the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess. Look, can the Queen's Wife believe it? The Queen's Wife already believes in her heart that I am going to Chonghua Palace to report the letter, no matter how I explain it, you won't believe it, so why should I bother talking about it."

"The water in the palace is deep, and the imperial sister doesn't want to get involved, so I can understand." Empress Chen stared at Xiao Mingrui oppressively: "I only hope that the imperial sister will really let go of her hands, and don't break her promise and lose money in the future."

"Emperor's sister-in-law don't worry." Xiao Mingrui smiled slightly: "If the emperor hadn't forced me to enter the palace today, I wouldn't have come. My Yaoer is about to get married, so I don't have the time to meddle in the emperor's sister-in-law's business. If the emperor's sister-in-law It's okay, I'll take my leave."

Xiao Mingrui turned around and left without waiting for Empress Chen to answer.She is the eldest princess with a detached status. Although the relationship with Empress Chen was okay before, it was because the two parties respected each other intentionally and gave each other face.

Now that Empress Chen has turned her anger on her, Xiao Mingrui will not wrong himself, and stay in Weiyang Palace to see his face!

Here Xiao Mingrui came out of Weiyang Palace, and went directly to the imperial study to meet the emperor, while in Chonghua Palace over there, Shangguan Yuan still had lingering fears.

"Scared me to death!" She patted her chest: "I thought we couldn't cover up the matter of our elder sister!"

"Hi! Sooner or later!" Shangguanjing shook her head and sighed, "Even if my aunt didn't ask, sooner or later she would know."

"According to my aunt's temperament, if I know the truth, I'm afraid she will go to Hanchun Palace immediately and insist on taking Princess Cheng out of the palace." Xiao Jingheng replied: "The emperor will definitely be alarmed by then, and the matter may not end well. .”

"It's not good for us to ask directly about this kind of thing." Shangguan Yuan almost rubbed the handkerchief in his hand: "Who knows what Eldest Sister thinks! With the emperor... really, she is the emperor's." Daughter-in-law! Is it possible to be like this for the rest of my life? Why can't I think about it like this."

Can't see the light for a lifetime?If you really want to study it carefully, that may not be the case!Although the Tang Dynasty is not recorded in the history of this world, the well-informed Tang Xuanzong and Concubine Yang know Tang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei.

If the royal family is shameless, who can stop it?

　——Here is the dividing line of the ancients——
　　Even if it is not superficial, the ancients were actually not that pedantic.Some friends’ impressions of ancient society come from online novels and TV dramas, but in fact not all dynasties are Ming and Qing Dynasties, and the Chinese have always been very flexible.

　　And... the royal family... is actually the most unruly family in the whole world, because the rules are all made by people.

　　In fact, counting Chinese history in detail, Yang Guifei and Tang Minghuang are really not particularly outrageous, there are many more outrageous than this! ! !
