The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 813
Zhao Dongting hurried out of the palace gate with Yunjing.

Because the whereabouts of Empress Dowager Xie and others needed to be kept secret, the imperial court did not greet them outside the city with great fanfare.

When Zhao Dongting and Yunjing arrived at the gate of the palace, more than a thousand personal guards of Su Quandang were lined up on the street outside the palace gate.

Su Quan wore silver armor and stood in front of the army holding a spear.

Behind him, there are more than ten chariots.

Seeing Zhao Dongting appearing with Yunjing, Su Quandang's eyes faintly showed excitement, he quickly dismounted and knelt on one knee and said: "The last general Su Quandang kowtowed to the emperor."

Since he became the Marshal of the Zhenbei Military Region, he and Zhao Dongting had less chance to meet each other.

The two are not only monarchs and ministers, but also friends, so it is inevitable that they will be a little excited.

"Get up quickly."

Zhao Dongting also had a smile on his face, "I haven't seen you for another year, but you are getting stronger and stronger."

Su Quandang sneered, "The army eats well and dresses well, and the final general is all thanks to the emperor."

The door curtains of the chariot behind him were pulled open.

Empress Dowager Xie, Empress Dowager Quan, and all the relatives of the emperor before the Song Dynasty all showed their faces.

None of them spoke, they all just looked at Zhao Dongting.

Zhao Dongting's eyes also swept across their faces.

Then he saluted Empress Dowager Xie and Empress Dowager Quan one by one: "Empress Dowager...Empress Dowager..."

Although he did not inherit Zhao Bing's skills, it is not difficult to recognize the oldest and most dignified Empress Dowager Xie.As for those who can ride in the same chariot with Empress Dowager Xie, there will be no one else except Queen Dowager Quan.

"Ah."

Empress Dowager Xie responded softly.

The Queen Dowager Quan, whose face was still tired, could not be so calm, and said with some resentment: "Xian'er has passed away, and I can no longer be called a Queen Mother."

She undoubtedly hated Zhao Dongting the most in her heart.

Zhao Xian's death caused her to lose a lot of sanity, and this naturally made her not bother to consider whether it was someone else who did it. She only believed that Zhao Dongting was the instigator.

Zhao Dongting was startled slightly.I didn't expect Queen Mother Quan to be so full of guns and sticks when she spoke just now.

The strong resentment in those words can be felt by everyone around.

Hearing that Xian'er had passed away, the guards guarding the palace all changed their colors.

Zhao Dongting wanted to refute, but this is obviously not the place to talk, he frowned slightly, and said: "Please let the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager enter the palace..."

After finishing speaking, he grabbed Su Quandang's hand and walked towards the palace.

He won't be too polite.

Because now he is the emperor of Song Dynasty.

Zhao Dongting knew very well that the more humble he was, the more people like the Queen Mother would push forward.

And he actually didn't care much about them.

If he hadn't cared about the blood relationship and had to set an example for his subjects, he wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to people like the Empress Dowager Xie.

The treatment Zhao Bing received in the court before was not very good.

And holding Su Quandang's hand can also be regarded as a kind of demonstration.Since Zhao Dongting did it deliberately.

He was telling the Empress Dowager Xie and others that the current Great Song Dynasty is his Great Song Dynasty.Young generals like Su Quandang are all his people.

This also made the eyes of Empress Dowager Xie and the others slightly narrowed.

They all keenly sensed Zhao Dongting's intentions.

"The Empress Dowager..."

Empress Dowager Quan looked at Empress Dowager Xie aggrievedly, but stopped in the cold eyes of Empress Dowager Xie, unable to say the following words.

Empress Dowager Xie stepped out of the chariot and said coldly, "Enter the palace!"

Zhao Xian's death and Zhao Dongting's attitude made them not as excited as they expected when they returned to Changsha, let alone happy.

Everyone is full of thoughts.

And Zhao Dongting dragged Su Quandang straight to Zhengde Gate, and he never turned back.

He didn't want to face the venomous face of Queen Mother Quan.

To Zhengdemen.

Concubine Yang Shu, Ying Er, Zhang Ru, and Le Chan are already waiting in formal attire.

Seeing that Zhao Dongting dragged Su Quandang to arrive first, he was slightly stunned, and then looked at the group of Empress Dowager Xie who was behind.

Zhao Dongting said to Concubine Yang Shu indifferently: "Mother, the Empress Dowager and the others are back."

Then he walked to Concubine Yang Shu and stood beside her.

Su Quandang knelt down on the ground, "The final general, Su Quandang, kowtowed to the Empress Dowager, Empress, Concubine Jing, and Empress De."

He knocked and shouted extremely loudly.

After shouting, he looked up at Zhao Dongting.Zhao Dongting blinked at him.

Su Quandang is really clever.

Undoubtedly, Su Quandang also understood what Zhao Dongting meant.This is a deliberate appearance for the Empress Dowager Xie and others to see.

He was saying that only the empress dowager in front of him was the empress dowager he truly recognized in his heart.

This made the Empress Dowager Quan's complexion even worse, and she couldn't help but hum softly.

The rest of the royal relatives were thoughtful.

These days on the way from Xinyang City to Changsha, they have had enough time for them to consider many issues.

The former Great Song Dynasty was the Great Song Dynasty of Empress Dowager Xie, but now it seems that the Great Song Dynasty has already changed.

Zhao Dongting's prestige in the court was far beyond their expectations.

Although the young emperor in front of him was still young, he was still imposing, so that they still couldn't combine him with the weak Zhao Bing before.

Zhao Dongting's majesty is enough to show that he is already a real king.

And such a king, will the empress dowager have a chance to rule?
Originally, I couldn't forget this matter, and I hoped that the relatives and relatives of the imperial family who would still follow the Empress Dowager Xie to eat and drink spicy food, but in fact, they had already lost their minds.

Under such circumstances, they also have to think about how they should stand in line in the future.

Concubine Yang Shu lived under the rule of Empress Dowager Xie for such a long time before, even now, Empress Dowager Xie may still have some prestige in her heart, so she seems to be much more humble and polite than Zhao Dongting, even the eyes They were all a little reddish, and hurriedly stepped forward, saluted the Empress Dowager Xie and said: "The Empress Dowager is auspicious."

He called out to the Queen Mother again, "Sister."

All that can be obtained is the Queen Mother's cold snort.

This woman can't care about anything else.Now, she probably just wants to vent the anger in her heart.

Zhang Ru and his daughters also stepped forward to salute.

The royal relatives behind the Empress Dowager Xie are still watching, they neither salute Zhao Dongting, nor plan to salute Concubine Yang Shu now.

"Let's all be free!"

Empress Dowager Xie's voice was still cold, her eyes just fell on Concubine Yang Shu's face, with inexplicable meaning.

The atmosphere was suddenly awkward.

The side guards and eunuchs all knelt down on the ground, so quiet that a needle could be heard.

Zhao Dongting looked at Concubine Yang Shu and the others' hot faces and cold buttocks, and was a little annoyed, and said, "Please invite the Empress Dowager to enter the palace for a banquet!"

"No need."

Empress Dowager Xie waved her hands and said, "I'm tired, I want to go back to my bedroom to rest."

Zhao Dongting raised his eyebrows and didn't say much, he just told Eunuch Li, "Eunuch Li, take the Empress Dowager to the bedroom to rest."

Then his eyes fell on the rest of the emperor's relatives, "Where are you?"

He couldn't even pronounce the names of these people.

"I'm going to rest too."

Queen Mother Quan spoke coldly.

Then the relatives of the royal family hesitated a little and looked at each other.

In the end, some people said they wanted to go down to rest, while others didn't speak.

Zhao Dongting had already arranged a place for them, but at the moment, he just asked Eunuch Li to arrange for those who wanted to go back to rest to leave.He took the rest of the people to the main hall.

Concubine Yang Shu undoubtedly felt something, and said to Empress Dowager Xie: "My concubine, go and accompany the Empress Dowager!"

"No need."

But Empress Dowager Xie still just said that, with the appearance of rejecting people thousands of miles away.

Concubine Yang Shu couldn't help but sigh in her heart, she could only say: "Then my concubine and Shi'er will go to greet the Empress Dowager."

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Dongting grabbed her hand and walked towards the main hall.

The two gangs parted ways.

Concubine Yang Shu turned her head repeatedly, and finally couldn't help but asked Zhao Dongting softly, "Why are you so indifferent to the empress dowager?"

Zhao Dongting just shook his head, "Don't ask the queen mother now, the son will explain to the queen mother himself in the future."

Some things, even if they say too much now, it is futile.

The attitude of Empress Dowager Xie and others after they returned to the palace made Zhao Dongting realize that these people were actually not at ease.

That being the case, it is necessary to wrestle.

After all, there is only one ruler in Song Dynasty.

And it is bound to wrestle, why bother to be too polite?
