The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 333
Daqi this year can be described as a year of natural disasters. In spring, the national drought caused many places to lose crops. In summer, floods in the south caused many people’s homes to be destroyed and homeless. The poor are countless.

The life of the common people is simply miserable, but this does not affect the bright lights in the imperial city.

Just in time for this year to be a year of tribute, when the winter solstice came, all the feudal lords came to the capital in an endless stream to pay homage. There was a big banquet in the palace every three days, and a small banquet every five days.Before the various vassal dynasties paid tribute to Beijing, dignitaries in Beijing, officials above the second rank, and their wives all entered the palace for a banquet, and the huge banquet hall of the palace was even more crowded and lively.

Li Ling Jingshu was naturally also invited to be the first one, and the palace banquet will not be over until the full moon lifts into the sky.Li Ling and Jing Shu left the banquet hall, walked out along the palace road, and happened to meet Prince Zhao Bi who had just returned from outside the palace.

Today, Zhao Bi was not present at the banquet in the whole palace, and everyone did not know why, but because the crown prince has always behaved perversely, no one took this matter to heart.

Zhao Bi helped Li Ling up with his own hands, and greeted: "We are all a family, cousin doesn't need to be polite." But his eyes couldn't help but glanced at Jing Shu who was standing behind Li Ling.

Although it was night, the moonlight was as bright as the bright moon. In this hazy night, the Jingshu that fell in Zhao Bi's eyes was even brighter than the night pearl.

Seeing Zhao Bi's unscrupulous glances at his wife, Li Ling's expression darkened immediately, and he moved to stand in front of his wife, and said in a calm tone: "It's getting late, I'm going out of the palace soon, His Royal Highness, please walk slowly." .”

It was not until he heard Li Ling's displeased tone that Zhao Bi came back to his senses, and he quickly replied, "Cousin, go slowly."

Li Ling turned around, pulled his wife over, and strode out of the palace.

Until the backs of the two disappeared into the hazy night, Zhao Bi still stood there stupidly and looked around in a daze.

Seeing this, the attendant beside him carefully stepped forward and tried to remind him: "Your Highness, it's getting late, it's time to go back."

Zhao Bi listened to the attendant's reminder, then turned around, and asked, looking at the attendant, "Is that woman the wife of the eldest son of the Li family?"

Although the attendant only knew Mrs. Li Ling's surname, not Jing Shu, but he knew that only the old lady and Mrs. Shizi had orders in the Duke of Zhen's mansion, so even guessing, he could know that this young woman must be Mrs. Shizi up.

The attendant replied respectfully: "If you go back to Your Highness, the one who is following the Li family's son is his wife Shen."

Hearing this, Zhao Bi murmured: "Wang Gu is still the crown prince, even though he has had countless daughters, he has never been lucky enough to meet such a peerless beauty."

Zhao Bi clapped his hands and said, "Wonderful man! You are really a wonderful man!"

Zhao Bi was losing his composure here, when an eunuch came to meet Zhao Bi, bowed and saluted Zhao Bi, "Your Highness, you have finally returned, the Queen has been waiting for you all night, and I will send you over."

When Zhao Bi heard that it was the Queen's mother who announced him, his face immediately sank, and he walked towards Jiaofang Hall helplessly.

Today, the whole palace was having a banquet, and all the feudal lords and civil and military officials of high rank were present. Under the eyes of everyone, the prince was absent for no reason.

Zhao Bi entered the main hall, gave a symbolic salute to his mother, and said with a dull face, "Why did the queen call the orphan here?"

When Empress Cao saw her son, she waved her hand away from the ladies and gentlemen in the palace, and asked with a frown, "Where did you go for a feast today?"

Zhao Bi replied with a straight face: "What can I do, I just go out of the palace for a walk when I feel uncomfortable."

Seeing her son's attitude, Empress Cao was so annoyed that she picked up the teacup by her side and threw it at his feet, and said sharply, "Can you have some snacks? The whole palace is feasting. King Gelu and the important officials of the court are here. On such an important day, you Why don’t you show your face at the banquet and go wandering outside the palace? Did you find some unknown woman in the palace outside? What time is it? Let the queen mother say something about you.”

Seeing that his mother was angry, Zhao Bi also lost his temper. He frowned and replied angrily, "What does it matter if I don't show up? If I'm gone, will my father be pleasing to my eyes? Those old immortals Then the minister will be able to stop Yi Chu's thoughts?"

The more he spoke, the angrier he became, his hands under his wide sleeves were clenched into fists, and the veins on his forehead were protruding, and he said bitterly: "Father, I wish I wouldn't go, I'm not in front of him, hehe, he Elderly people can be happier."

Emperor Ming preferred the King of Jin who was born by Concubine Meng Gui, and he even thought about passing the throne to King Jin. Although the Cao family was very powerful in the court, Emperor Ming couldn't help thinking about Yi Chu. The forces supporting King Jin in China are also growing.

Empress Cao, her son and the entire princeling party are already in danger.

Empress Cao saw that her son was so angry that he even ignored her honorary title. She was so sad that she couldn't help but shed tears, and said: "As the saying goes, if you are just an ordinary prince, Jin Wang will finally gain power." , with the power of the Cao family in this palace, even if the new king ascends the throne, he can't do anything to us, but you are the crown prince, if you are pulled down, we will be doomed forever."

While talking, Empress Cao, who has always been strong and decisive, couldn't help but burst into tears: "My son, if you give up now, there will be no way for you to survive in the future. With Concubine Meng and King Jin Mother and son have vicious and vicious temperaments, so they have to swallow our mother and son alive."

Seeing his mother being so sad, Zhao Bi not only did not have the compassion of a son of man, but turned his head aside, and replied in a strange way: "Even so, what can the queen do for Gu? Hmph! What will happen in the end? It all depends on the father's will, Meng Guifei, mother and son are the people that the father likes, who will make us dislike the father."

Empress Cao didn't know that the root cause of the embarrassing and crisis situation between their mother and son was that she was more favored by Emperor Ming than Concubine Meng. In fact, as a regular wife, she hated and resented her more than anyone else. The words from her biological son made Empress Cao feel even more sad and desolate.

She sighed deeply, and looked at her son with great disappointment: "You are not too young now, if you keep trying to make progress like this, then there is nothing I can do about it, you can just do it yourself."

As she spoke, she waved her hand at her son and said, "You go."

Zhao Bi heard the words, but he didn't have a word to comfort his mother, Empress Cao, and turned around and left the hall neatly.
