Chapter 231 Eventful Autumn
The second day was the day when Zhao Hong entered the palace to pay his respects, and Yuan Ruru came with him.

It stands to reason that a concubine is not a noble person, how dare she follow her to the palace?
Meng Siyin had been standing beside the queen mother to serve her. From the corner of her eyes, Yuan Ruru glared at her with eyes full of resentment.

She glanced back disdainfully.

The queen mother naturally saw all this in her eyes.

The queen mother coughed twice: "Hong'er, you don't understand the rules even more now."

Before Yuan Ruru came, she had thought that the Queen Mother would make things difficult for her, after all, she was the biggest backer of Meng Siyin and Zhao Xu.

Yuan Ruru took the initiative to plead guilty.

"It's my concubine who wants to follow me. Your Highness loves me too."

The Empress Dowager slapped the table on the table, making Yuan Ruru tremble in fright.

"I'm asking my grandson, what are you talking about as an outsider?"

Yuan Ruru just wanted to refute, but was stared back by Zhao Hong.

Meng Siyin looked at Yuan Ruru contemptuously, is this guy imprisoned?Dare to accept the Queen Mother's words.

Yuan Ruru looked at the emperor with teary eyes.

The emperor was annoyed by these two people, and sent them away after a few perfunctory sentences.

As soon as Zhao Hong left the entrance of the main hall, he reprimanded loudly: "You woman is so stupid, don't you look at who is speaking today? How dare you make unreasonable words there."

Yuan Ruru bit her lip and twisted the handkerchief vigorously.

She swore that these grievances would be repaid a hundredfold by Meng Siyin.

She is a dignified lady, and being Zhao Hong's concubine is enough to be wronged, but today she was embarrassing in public.

At that time, she wished she could find a crack in the ground and get into it.

After returning to the palace with Zhao Hong, he threw her to the nun to teach etiquette and rules.

Yuan Ruru looked at Zhao Hong tearfully, and wanted to hold back a few words.

Zhao Hong turned around and pointed at Yuan Ruru and said, "Your Yuan family has never taught you what etiquette and rules are. Let the teacher of the palace teach you well."

After saying that, he turned his head and left, without giving Yuan Ruru a chance to argue.

Yuan Ruru stamped her feet on the spot angrily.

At this moment, Zhao Hong was distraught by Zhao Xu's torment, now the Yuan family's support was not enough, and he had to win over more important officials of the court.

The queen family has no power now.

The queen is also locked in the cold palace now, who else can he rely on?
After much deliberation, he came to the Duke's Mansion.

The emperor thought about the past and blamed the queen, but he did not harm the queen's family.

But now the people in the Duke's Mansion are also extremely low-key.

The servants of the Duke's Mansion were all very surprised when they saw King Yu coming to the door. How dare he be on the cusp of such a storm?

Zhao Hong frowned and asked, "Where's my uncle? I have something important to discuss with him."

The servant faltered and couldn't answer for a long time.

He glanced at it with disdain, then went straight to the study, pushed away the study and found that there was no one there.

Where did this go in broad daylight?Just as Zhao Hong was muttering, the housekeeper of the Duke's Mansion greeted him.

The king of Yu was far away.

Zhao Hong cast a disdainful glance.

At the beginning, when these mothers and queens were here, they all wanted to curry favor with each other, but now they turned out to be indifferent to me.

One day, I will take back the country, and I will make them look good.

Zhao Hong thought of this gnashing of hatred.

The butler saw that Zhao Hong didn't understand what he wanted, so he spoke on his own.

"My lord and my wife went to the temple to pray for blessings today, and I'm afraid they won't be able to come back for a while. My lord, do you think you want to wait here, or come back another day?"

Zhao Hongfo touched Buddha's sleeve and said, "I'll come back another day!"

After speaking, he returned to the prince's mansion.

This time he was very angry. Could it be that his own uncle didn't want to take care of him?
After such a quarrel between Meng Siyan and Zhao Xu, their marriage is set for next month.

Zhao Xu jokingly said, "You two are going to give me a big gift as a great matchmaker."

Zhao Xi echoed from the side, "That must be done."

When several people were joking around in the hall, the maid next to the Empress Dowager delivered an order to see Meng Siyin.

After Meng Siyin tidied up, she hurried to the Compassion Palace.

Seeing an unfamiliar man standing next to the queen mother, he asked curiously, "Who is this young master?"

The queen mother smiled and said, "This is the ink dye I mentioned to you last time."

Meng Siyin tried her best to think back, she was so busy for a while that she forgot about this incident.

The queen mother pulled Meng Siyin to her side and said, "I will give you this painter."

Meng Siyin looked up and down at the painter in front of him. He has a pair of emerald green eyes, and his curly hair looks very playful. At first glance, he is not from the Central Plains.

Mo Ran lowered his head and introduced himself: "I'm from the Western Regions, thank you Queen Mother and Miss for enjoying the meal."

The clumsy introduction amused the Queen Mother.

In the evening, Meng Siyin brought Mo Ran back to Jiayi Hall.

Zhao Xu looked at this strange man, immediately became vigilant, frowned and asked, "Who is this?"

Meng Siyin asked Mo Ran to follow the servants to the side hall.

She took out Mo Ran's drawing and stuffed it into Zhao Xu's hand.

Zhao Xu looked at it and said, "Is this the painter from the Western Regions that the Queen Mother mentioned last time?"

Meng Siying nodded.

"He will be mine from now on."

Zhao Xu choked up when he heard this, and raised his head to pretend to be angry.

"What did you say? Who is your man?"

"Of course it's ink dyed. The Queen Mother gave it to me. I'll make an offering." Meng Siyin replied mischievously.

Zhao Xu threw the painting on the ground and left without looking back.

Meng Siyin laughed out loud at Zhao Xu's appearance.

She put away the paintings, took a plate of pastries from the small kitchen, and went to Zhao Xu's room.

Zhao Xu turned around angrily.

Meng Siyin casually took a piece of pastry and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Just kidding, this Mo Ran has a miserable life experience, I just want him to have a place to eat."

Zhao Xu chewed a few mouthfuls angrily.

"Then why did the Queen Mother insist on stuffing him here with us?"

Meng Siyin thought for a while and replied: "Probably the queen mother thinks that we can protect him well. Besides, you are so powerful that you can protect the entire Jiayi Palace. This is the queen mother's trust in you and me."

Zhao Xu was so disoriented by Meng Siyin's rainbow fart that he giggled twice.

During the recent troubled times, there were one book after another about the Queen's family in the court.

The emperor also wanted to suppress the matter at first, and made the big and small things smaller.

But looking at the piles of criminal evidence on the booklet, even if the emperor wanted to protect his shortcomings, he might not be able to protect him this time.

He shook his head helplessly. Since the prince's accident, he has not yet found a suitable successor. He obviously feels that his body is getting worse day by day.

Thinking of this, the emperor felt desolate in his heart.

He has forced many children in his life, but there are very few of them.

The emperor turned his head to look at the personal eunuch and said, "Who do you think is suitable for me to make the prince?"

The eunuch immediately replied: "Your Majesty, please allow me, an eunuch, to criticize important national affairs. Besides, those princes are all outstanding, and they all have the demeanor of Your Highness back then."
