Chapter 48
"I sent my own uncle to the big prison, and brought people from the first palace to threaten my mother, Zhao Surui, you are really a good emperor, and you have played a good role! What? Now that you have entered the Palace of Compassion, is it Do you want to drag out the Ai family who has served the late emperor for decades and who gave birth to the first prince and the queen mother to you?"

In terms of age, Empress Dowager Cao is nearly fifty years old, but she looks only a few years older than Lin Miaozhen. She wears a brown hat with a full set of ruby ​​on her head, and in the middle is a white jade Buddha inlaid with gold. Surrounded by treasures and brilliance.He is wearing a big red dragon-pattern Baifu short jacket, and his lower body is a double-leather horse-face skirt with a jade girl offering her birthday and sailing dragons to sea.

In the main hall of the Compassionate Ning Palace, Shen Shiqing finally met such a current empress dowager as Zhao Surui.

Ignoring Empress Dowager Cao's gun and stick, she saluted slightly: "My son pays respects to Empress Dowager."

"Please be safe? What are you asking for? The Ai family thinks that if there is no Ai family, this palace will be truly safe."

This statement... is not wrong.

Shen Shiqing didn't answer, Cao's words might make Zhao Surui feel bad, but she is not the son of Empress Dowager Cao.

Lin Miaozhen saw that the swords between the royal mother and son were tense, and she also saluted Cao: "Daughter-in-law Lin pays respects to the Queen Mother."

Looking at her, Cao first laughed:
"Ha! Mrs. Lin! The Ai family thought that after being a queen for seven years, you finally knew some of the etiquette, righteousness, and shame that a woman should have. I didn't expect that the Ai family still underestimated you! You even encouraged the Ai family's son to bully yourself Empress! The Ai family sees that it is not enough for you to harm one of the sons of the Ai family, but also to harm the other son of the Ai family. You are going to harm the entire world of the Great Yong Dynasty! The Lin family has really raised an excellent daughter! It is clearly A character like Baosi Daji!"

If it was said that Cao's scolding of "Zhao Surui" was mean, then her scolding of Lin Miaozhen was full of heart-breaking words, and every word and every word wished she could directly become a sword, spear, sword and halberd to kill Lin Miaozhen on the spot.

Shen Shiqing used to only know that Lin Miaozhen was the queen begged by Zhao Surui herself, and she had a bad reputation among the noble and wealthy families in Yanjing City. Only now did she understand why those female family members in the Hou's mansion dared to comment on the queen of the dynasty arbitrarily. The root of it is the Empress Dowager Cao.

Listening to Empress Dowager Cao's words, Lin Miaozhen remained expressionless, she lifted the corner of her skirt and was about to kneel down, but was stopped by someone.

The person who stopped her was of course Shen Shiqing.

"Mother, the queen is the queen chosen by me. She is the mother of a country, and she presides over the harem to solve problems for me. As a descendant, the Lin family is also diligent and cautious. Lin's father is only a doctor of honor. Over the years, the queen has also Well, no matter the Lin family, they are conscientious wives and ministers of others, and they have never gone beyond the distance. If such a queen is a person with evil intentions, then encouraging the late emperor to assign his brother to a real position will cause the court to lose thousands of troops and hundreds of thousands of horses. What is Baiyin's mother queen? What is the Cao family who has a family of two princes who don't want to serve the country, an uncle who invades the fields and commits crimes, and another uncle who hangs around brothels? Mother, you say the queen is Baosi Daji , Then what is Zhen? You King of Zhou, King Zhou of Shang?"

"Crack!" A Doucai teacup was smashed to the ground.

Cao Chacha looked at his youngest son, his chest was filled with anger.

"You talk to the Ai family like this? Zhao Surui, are you going to go against the heavens?! If the Ai family knew that they had given birth to an unfilial son like you, they should have thrown you into..."

Before she could finish her sentence, the eunuchs and maids serving in the palace had already knelt down firmly on the ground.

Li Nianen kneeled in front of her and stopped her in a panic: "Your Majesty! You can't say that!"

"There's nothing to say!" Cao Chacha waved away Li Nianen who was blocking her, stood up and walked in front of "my son".

"The first emperor treated the Cao family preferentially back then. That was the kindness the late emperor gave to the Ai family. Zhao Surui, if the emperor had not passed away and the throne was in your hands, why would the Ai family be insulted by you? You framed the Cao family and framed the Ai family. , what other means do you have? You just use it! The Ai family has nothing now, not even the dignity of a queen mother. Let's see how you, who was unfaithful and unfilial and forced your mother to death, will meet the Zhao family's ancestors in the future!"

Hearing the Empress Dowager Cao's mouthful of "doer", Shen Shiqing could feel Lin Miaozhen's body swaying slightly as she was supported by her.

Shen Shiqing probably understands why the Empress Dowager Cao has been so domineering all these years. Apart from the word "filial piety" tightly held in her hand, her other hand is holding "Zhao Suqian". The successive deaths allowed Zhao Surui to obtain the throne, and also put a layer of shackles on his and Lin Miaozhen's hearts.

Especially Zhao Suqian, he is the crown prince of Da Yong who is expected by all civil and military courts in the whole dynasty. He is the beloved person whom Lin Miaozhen has loved for many years and cannot forget. He is the bright moon in the sky. into the bosom.

Empress Dowager Cao kept mentioning Zhao Suqian, as if she was chanting a spell and took a round of the moon into her hands. She said the moon is round, the moon is round, and everything in the world is round. She said the moon is curved. Yes, the moon is curved, and everything in the world must be curved.

In the slightest disappointment, she tortured Lin Miaozhen and Zhao Surui with a person who no longer existed in the world, making them let her go.

But what does the real Zhao Sugan look like, and how can the Empress Dowager Cao pretend at will?

Sighing softly, Shen Shiqing was not in a hurry, but lightly pinched Lin Miaozhen's arm to comfort her: "In the 13th year of Mingkang, the first prince entered the court to listen to the government, and the first memorial was to forbid nobles from engulfing the common people's farmland in the suburbs of Beijing." In the 14th year of Mingkang, the first prince read "Book of the Later Han Dynasty" and wrote the article "Theory of the World and Foreign Relatives" with deep feelings for the dictatorship of foreign relatives in the late Han Dynasty. My mother's eldest brother, Prince Duansheng of the Dayong Dynasty, had a heart for the world and wanted to get rid of it. The accumulated evils of Dayong's past dynasties have enabled the people of Dayong to have land to live in peace, made everyone in the world abide by the law, and even opposed foreign relatives' interference in the government. What I do now, every single thing, I can explain clearly in front of my eldest brother, but the queen mother , you always mention my elder brother, have you ever thought about what my elder brother would think if he knew that you let the Cao family go so far?"

She looked at Empress Dowager Cao with eyes that belonged to Zhao Surui:
"Queen, will my eldest brother be happy? Will he be happy that my uncle is incompetent and lost a few hundred thousand taels in the court? Will he be happy to see you use Huangzhuang's money to make up for the deficit? Will be happy that you are right? Do you want my queen to say such disrespectful words? Or will you be happy that you will use his death to make his younger brother submit to you?"

Cao Chacha did not expect that she did not see her youngest son's expression of anger, aggrieved and helpless today.

Of course she knew what she was talking about and what she was doing all the time. In these years, whenever Zhao Surui made her feel unsatisfactory, she would think of her eldest son.

Compared to Zhao Surui, who only knows how to act willfully and recklessly, her eldest son is like a god-given treasure. Her eldest son helped the late emperor to become a prince and helped her become a princess princess. Her eldest son was smart and studious. Criticism from countless former emperors who were favored by the late emperor... Compared with Qian'er, Zhao Surui is not only mediocre in talent, but also has the temperament of a demon king in the world. Why can't she miss her eldest son?
Of course she will miss it!She will be missed by everyone!She just wanted Zhao Surui and Lin Miaozhen to know that everything they got today was bought with her godson's life!
But today's Zhao Surui, he is so different from usual.

Cao Chacha was even questioned by her own son. She paused, and the first thought that came to her mind was "My son contradicted me because of Lin Miaozhen, a bitch who overpowered me to death."

"What nonsense are you talking about! Did this bitch Lin teach you to say it!"

While speaking, Empress Dowager Cao pointed her hand straight at Lin Miaozhen's face, but in the next second, "Zhao Surui" blocked Lin Miaozhen's front.

"No, these are all what I want to say." Shen Shiqing looked at Empress Dowager Cao, this woman seemed to have everything, but she insisted on grasping the point that she had lost, and let everyone only see that point, because That little light was enough to cover all her selfishness.

"Queen, I've heard enough of what you said through my imperial brother. You never care what the imperial brother really wants to do, and you don't care about the grand plans and ambitions of the imperial brother for the whole world. I don’t want to accompany my mother to perform this kind of tricks again and again to benefit the Cao family in the name of the emperor. Because I am the emperor of Dayong, I am a genius!”

Shen Shiqing took a step forward, her eyes were cold but determined.

"Queen, after all these years, do you really not understand? You can become queen mother because of me."

The man is tall and tall, with broad shoulders and long arms, like a tree that can shelter all the wind and rain in the world.

Lin Miaozhen stood there, looking at "Zhao Surui" standing in front of her, her heart was sour, but for the first time in so many years, she showed a sincere smile in the Palace of Compassion and Ning.

Empress Dowager Cao took one step back, another step, and when "Zhao Surui" turned and walked out, her legs finally gave way and she sat on a chair.

"Li Nianen, what does he mean?!"

Li Nianen didn't know how to answer his master's words.

Your Majesty means, Empress Dowager, the days when you want wind and rain are over.

Shen Shiqing took Lin Miaozhen and strode away from the Palace of Compassion and Peace.

Standing in front of the gate of the Compassionate Palace, she turned around and looked at the word "Compassionate", and couldn't help but sneer.

Kindness.

rather.

"Go to Xiyuan." Lin Miaozhen said to Yiji when she was pulling Lin Miaozhen into the sedan chair.

There was silence in the sedan chair, and even the footsteps of the bearers outside could hardly be heard, Lin Miaozhen looked at Zhao Surui with a somewhat embarrassed expression: "I clearly said that I was building a harem for you, why did you come to protect me in the end? "

Shen Shiqing looked at her, it was obvious that Lin Miaozhen's facial features were bright and she had no similarities with herself, but she felt that Lin Miaozhen at this moment was very similar to her in the past.

For the little thoughts in their hearts, they all trapped themselves in a place where the wind and rain were blowing, and in the fleeting years that seemed like still water, they let their hearts go through mountains of swords and seas of fire.

"Sister Lin, do you like blue or purple?"

Lin Miaozhen was at a loss: "What? You want to give me a head start again? No need, I didn't do anything for you today..."

"Sister Lin." Shen Shiqing interrupted Lin Miaozhen's words.

"Choose a suit of clothes, let's go out to play in the palace."

Get out there and take a look.

Look at the human world and the setting sun outside the high wall, look at the flowing clouds and cooking smoke that are no longer lonely.

Thinking of those, Shen Shiqing smiled:

"Sister Lin, my elder brother died to cure the flood for the common people. What he left to you is not only palace walls, cold moon and wine."

Lin Miaozhen was still shocked, she never thought that she would have a day to leave the imperial city other than death.

But looking at the deep and quiet eyes of the man in front of her, there was something more in her heart besides panic.

"it is good."

She nodded, and a tear fell on her queen dress.

 Shen Shiqing: I just can't see a beauty being wronged!
  Siri Zhao: When I communicate with Sister Lin, I'm going to kill Shark!
