Chapter 173 The Queen Mother
The queen mother was still resting, so Su Qing carefully knelt on the pedals and beat the queen mother's legs.

The strength was neither light nor heavy. After hammering for a long time, Su Qing only felt that her arms were sore. The queen mother hadn't woken up yet. Looking at the sleeping face of the queen mother, the queen mother gave birth to Emperor Liang Xuan when she was 16 years old. After struggling for a long time, she did not become the empress dowager until Emperor Xuan of Liang ascended the throne.

Many princes died in the hands of the Queen Mother, which also led to the fact that Emperor Liang Xuan had very few half-brothers. Only one was a fool and was exiled to a remote place by the Queen Mother. There is no specific information about this fool.

The empress dowager's methods are cruel. Anyone who offends her will end badly. All the concubines of Emperor Liang Yuan were buried. Emperor Liang Yuan was actually unwilling to do so. Before his death, he specifically asked the concubines not to be buried. The queen mother changed the oral order and killed the eunuch beside Emperor Liang Yuan.

Judging from this palace, there are very few old people. Those who are alive are either in the cold palace, or out of the palace, or they are still doing very humble jobs, and no one knows them.

This woman has been in the harem for so many years, and she already has an exquisite heart. Her attitude towards Su Qing is just a warning.

Hanging her eyes, Su Qing is not looking at the Queen Mother, the coldness in her heart rises and goes straight to her forehead, the woman in front of her has been able to endure for many years, from concubine to Queen Mother, so now, what else can she not do?

There was a rustling sound on the bed, Su Qing hurriedly put aside the hammer leg, supported the Queen Mother's arm and said: "Queen Mother, do you want to get up?"

The queen mother hummed without pushing Su Qing's hand away, and took advantage of the situation to stand up. Su Qing put the pillow on her back, and covered her legs with the quilt, and after doing all this, she knelt down on the pedals again.

"Qing'er, rest when you're tired."

Su Qing picked up the leg-beating machine and continued: "I'm not tired, my mother didn't sleep well last night, it's time to rest."

The Empress Dowager touched her hair with her hand and sighed, "When I'm old, I'm short of breath, not like you when you are as beautiful as flowers and jade. Back then, when I was my age, I always lowered my head to embroider and write. My handwriting is very good. , even Emperor Yuan praised me, saying that I am better than the famous people outside."

Su Qing said with a smile; "The queen mother is a smart person, unlike me, who is too stupid."

The queen mother raised her eyelids to look at Su Qing, and said with a half-smile: "You are not stupid, it's just that someone troubled you, but your handwriting is indeed ugly."

Su Qing's face was a little hot, she lowered her head and said, "Yes, I'm practicing."

The queen mother looked away, looked at the curtain beside the bed, and fell into thought.

Su Qing followed his line of sight and saw that the light blue bed curtain was exactly the same as what he saw in the tent before.

Su Qing whispered: "This bed curtain is very beautiful, the blue is like the sky, as long as you open your eyes, you can see the vast and boundless night, the stars on it make people mesmerized, the queen mother and son-in-law also like it blue."

The Empress Dowager stared at the bed curtain, and slowly looked away, as if she was recalling something unhappy, with a heavy expression on her face.

Su Qing secretly blamed herself, did she say something wrong, if the Queen Mother hates her now, I'm afraid she will end badly.

"Hey."

With a heavy sigh, the whole room was covered with a layer of sadness. The Queen Mother gently stroked the brocade quilt beside her with her hand, and murmured: "It's all a dream."

Su Qing looked at her puzzled, at the queen mother's age, does she still have emotional troubles?

Thinking of this, Su Qing was shocked, saying that women before the Song Dynasty were as chic as men, and the Song Dynasty was lonely, so they imprisoned women, because the men in the Song Dynasty were too repressed, lost their country, and had no chance to show their ambitions.

But the anger in this body is always going to be released, so his eyes are fixed on the woman, cowardly behavior.

But now this is an empty dynasty, but the national power is strong, and there are not many restrictions on women. Su Qing thought of this, and the corners of her lips rose unconsciously. If the Queen Mother really has some ulterior secrets, it may be her life. The killer feature.

Su Qing didn't speak, the queen mother just stared at the quilt in a daze, after some time, the queen mother said: "Qing'er, why don't you speak?"

Su Qing didn't dare to vent her anger, "Don't dare to disturb my mother's thoughts, my son is stupid, if you don't know how to speak, talk less."

The Queen Mother raised the corners of her lips, leaned against the pillow, and said with a slight smile, "Are there any grievances about what happened yesterday?"

Su Qing's eyes widened, "The empress mother, the son-in-law is very wronged. If there is nothing obviously wrong, it will become true if people spread rumors at will. A woman's name is very important. If it is really misunderstood by the mother mother and the emperor, then the son-in-law will become the truth." The eternal sinner."

The queen mother looked at Su Qing's angry look, and said: "In the harem, if such a thing can happen, if you really didn't do it, then someone deliberately framed it."

Su Qing said angrily: "Mother, if you want to talk about this, I understand, but I am a princess, and I won't disturb any concubine or the emperor. Why do you have to find me?"

After a pause, Su Qing continued: "If you want to find the reason, it is naturally King Jing's identity, but according to seniority, I am King Jing's aunt. If the matter gets out, won't it lose the face of the royal family? How do you deal with yourself?"

The queen mother remained silent, and Su Qing said again: "I don't know who is playing tricks here. The most unpredictable thing in this world is the human heart. If someone deliberately framed my son, it is really unnecessary. If it is the prince, then It's possible, but my son doesn't understand."

The Queen Mother looked at her, "Don't understand what?"

"King Jing works for the emperor, and now he is very popular. Shouldn't he avoid his edge and find another way instead of being so rampant? In fact, everyone can think of it. This is impossible. The inner courtyard of the palace, How many people are staring at her, isn't this a joke? Who would have the guts not to take the queen mother and the emperor seriously?"

The Empress Dowager's face became more and more gloomy, she raised her eyebrows, and whispered: "Naturally, someone did it on purpose, thinking that I am old, so I don't have to abide by the legal system."

Su Qing didn't continue talking, what she said was already obvious, the one who can do this is naturally the queen, compared to other princes, if Liang Jingrui can ascend to the throne of God, Su Qing would be happy to see it happen.

"Qing'er, what do you think of Jing'er?"

Su Qing said: "The prince is naturally a dragon among men, and he is meticulous in his work. When copying the Heart Sutra, I saw that the prince is very serious, and he is not perfunctory at all. He even gave my son a pen."

Before the Queen Mother could speak, Mammy Liu came in from the door, "Queen Mother, Concubine Wu is here, crying and saying that she wants to see you."

Su Qing stood up, "Mother, son and minister are going out first."

The queen mother waved her hand, "You go, come back early to have dinner with me."
