Chapter 200 Essay Counting Lines ([-])

There was irony in his smile.

The expression on Ruan Wei's face gradually disappeared.You can't fully guess what he heard, it's always not a good thing.

Ordinary people dare not talk about the Empress Dowager behind her back, let alone in front of the emperor, her words and deeds have ulterior motives.

"You will always hear something that other people want you to hear. Emperor, you are not young, and you can always tell the intention of the person who said those words to you." Ruan Wei said with difficulty, "Our mother-child relationship For more than ten years, don't trust outsiders."

"I didn't believe it at first," Xuan Su said with a smile, which couldn't distinguish emotions, "but the queen mother just reminded me, how can a person who loves power like the queen mother tolerate the coexistence of two queen mothers? Why is she, When I was young, did you treat me like your own?"

Ruan Wei stared at him, unable to express how much disappointment she felt.

These two incidents clearly showed that Chu Meng was selfless to him, but in his opinion, they all had a purpose.

Xuan Su was also very disappointed: "Mother, I understand that feelings do not distinguish between men and women, but the Queen Mother may not be taking advantage of your true feelings. Xuan Jing's health is not good, and he will not stand for long. Isn't it imperative for me to ascend to the throne of God? What happened? The Empress Dowager Yu made an excuse to let the Empress Dowager give up on you..."

He thought he was tactful, but he made it clear.Emotions do not distinguish between men and women, this is what he believes is the "relationship" between the two queen mothers.

"get out."

Ruan Wei couldn't listen anymore.

Xuan Su took his last sip of jujube soup with rock sugar unhurriedly.

"Mother, you have never spoken harshly to me, but you will not allow anyone to speak ill of the Empress Dowager."

He glanced lightly at the Jun Jiaohua on the table, and said, "I heard that the Queen Mother gave the Empress Dowager a jade-carved Jun Jiaohua many years ago in front of all the ministers?"

He stood up and said with a smile: "At the risk of dying, I have to publicize it... Empress Mother, you are very courageous."

Ruan Wei said with a sullen face, "If I were your biological mother, would you still believe in those who have nothing and humiliate me like this?"

A child who has been raised with care, treats her so eccentrically, and she is far less calm than her face.

What if it was the biological mother?

These words are a question and a temptation.Ruan Wei is eager to know what his attitude will be if one day he knows that Chu Meng is his biological mother, the one who gave birth to Shi Yue.

But this temptation was futile.

Xuan Su said indifferently: "You are right about things and wrong about people, Queen Mother, you make me feel ashamed."

He turned around and walked out, Ruan Wei covered her clenched heart, bursts of chill rushed into her lungs, making her feel cold all over.

Xiaotao was outside the hall, seeing the emperor leaving angrily, she hurried in to find her master.

Ruan Wei supported the edge of the table with one hand, her body trembling uncontrollably, her face pale as if she had suffered a serious illness.

Xiaotao could only support her and persuade her not to think too much: "The emperor is young and vigorous, some quarrels are inevitable, please don't get angry with him."

Ruan Wei sat down with her support, silent for a long time, and said: "He came to see me today to test my attitude towards Chumeng, and he was very dissatisfied with the result. He was angry and humiliated me like this."

Thinking about it from another angle, the emperor's confrontation with her in this way just shows that the emperor still has no defense against her.

Deep down in the emperor's heart, he still believed that she, the queen mother, would not hurt him.

If it was facing Chumeng, he would never say these words.

Seeing her master like this, Xiaotao felt very distressed.

"What did the emperor say?"

Ruan Wei shook her head.

"Don't tell Chu Meng what happened today."
-
She did not allow people in the palace to tell the Queen Mother how unhappy the emperor was when he left Funing Palace.Yu Chumeng still came here not long after.

"Has the emperor come today?" Yu Chumeng asked.

Ruan Wei was in a bad mood, but she hid it well and peeled a lychee for her as if nothing had happened.

"Well, come and explain to me, saying that last time I didn't completely believe in Jiang Jingwan, it's just because of her pregnancy."

Yu Chumeng ate the lychees, and said with satisfaction: "This child is still thinking about you, and it's not in vain."

"I raised it with my own hands. If it's so outrageous, it's my responsibility." Ruan Wei said softly, "How can our child be so bad?"

These words seem to be self-confidence, and it seems that she is asking her own heart.

Yu Chumeng smiled and said, "That's right, our children can't be bad."

After leaving Funing Palace, Yu Chumeng stopped Xiaotao: "The emperor is here today, what's the matter?"

Xiaotao whispered: "Master, don't say anything. The emperor was fine when he came, but his face was ugly when he left. He probably had an argument with the master."

Yu Chumeng thought that if Weiwei didn't want her to know, it must be a dispute that would hurt her even if she found out.

"You comfort her well, and when she meets the emperor later, she will come to me right away."

Yu Chumeng still wanted to say something, but the palace people outside hurried over.

"Queen, something happened to Concubine Jing!"
-
Yu Chumeng and Ruan Wei rushed to Yufu Palace, the palace was in a hurry, Xuan Su stood outside the bedroom and did not go in.

"What's going on?" Ruan Wei went over and asked.

Xuan Su glanced at her, glanced at Yu Chumeng, lowered his head, and said in a low tone, "I can't keep it."

"Why can't I keep it?" Ruan Wei asked strangely, "The imperial doctor said yesterday that her pregnancy was stable, why can't I keep it today?"

Xuan Su twitched the corner of his mouth bitterly.

"I don't know. She went to the library and fell down."

"Which library are you going to?" Ruan Wei asked, "Have you searched the library, is there anything unusual?"

Xuan Su had a severe headache, turned his face away and didn't reply.

He didn't say anything, Xiao Zhu answered for him: "Queen Mother, Concubine Jing didn't know why, she slipped and fell off the steps when she went to the library in dancing clothes, and when the palace servants found out, the blood on the ground was almost dry .”

Ruan Wei said angrily: "Nonsense, what kind of dance does Concubine Jing dance with her body pregnant? When she goes to dance, no one takes care of her? What's the matter with the maids of Yufu Palace? Qinghe, let Qinghe come over."

Qinghe was called out from the bedroom, with tears all over her face, she knelt down on the ground.

"Your maidservant failed to stop Concubine Jing, she deserves death!"

Then he kowtowed desperately to the ground.

"Okay, let's make it clear first," Ruan Wei stopped her impatiently, and asked, "Why did your master go to dance?"

"Master likes to dance by nature. There are few people in the library, so the master often goes there. The slaves can't stop the master."

Qinghe wept, and said: "The master doesn't allow anyone to watch while dancing, and the servants are guarding outside the Library Pavilion. There has been no movement for more than an hour, and the servants are worried about going in to see what happened."

She knocked her forehead on the bluestone floor, leaving a sudden bloodstain.

"It's the servant's negligence, the servant deserves to die!"

Yu Chumeng found it ridiculous when she heard it: "The bedroom of Yufu Palace is not big enough, so she insists on going to Zangshuge to dance?"

Qinghe cried so hard that she couldn't answer.

Xuan Su stretched out his hand and rubbed his temples, and said wearily: "The two queens, let's try these things later."

His head ached from the questioning and crying.

Ruan Wei looked at him with complicated eyes.In front of Chu Meng, he still called the queen mother, but behind his back, he called the queen mother that way.
