Empress Abandoned in the Cold Palace: Queen Juan, she doesn't talk about martial arts

Chapter 32

"My lord, the state-owned state-law family has family rules. Although I am the empress of a country, I receive a salary every month. I really don't have much money."

"As for the so-called corruption, the silver has been confiscated. Isn't the food and winter clothes for the soldiers also come from here?"

After Su Lijin finished speaking, she secretly set her eyes on Wei Shu.

"Concubine Shu can give such an exquisite gift, naturally because she has a good natal family, who can secretly send her money to spend. I am naturally inferior to this."

She said, sat down on the chair again, and then opened her mouth lightly.

"Prime Minister is now so close to Concubine Shu, or is there some kind of deal between you and Concubine Shu that you want to pull Bengong down and let her sit in Bengong's place?"

"Me!" The prime minister's expression changed, never expecting that Su Lijin would dare to say these words in front of so many people.

"If you talk about corruption, the prime minister is really powerful. Outsiders say that you are a clean official, but even the jade wrench in your hand, prime minister, is something I have never seen before. I'm afraid it is worth a lot of money, right? "

"I don't know how many red agates can be exchanged for this jade ring finger."

Her words bound the Prime Minister and Concubine Shu to death. While the Prime Minister was corrupt, it also meant that the Prime Minister and Concubine Shu must be related.

The prime minister was startled, and quickly got up and knelt down on the ground to explain.

"Your majesty is wise, my minister has absolutely no corruption, and I can't even see you with Concubine Shu. These are all things that don't exist, Your Majesty!"

It's been a long time since I watched this farce, and Xiao Shengyun didn't intend to delve into the matter of corruption.

But she didn't expect Su Lijin to handle the matter very well, and said a few sharp words without letting herself feel wronged at all.

That's enough.

Thinking of this, Xiao Shengyun waved his hand slightly: "Okay, please, Prime Minister, today is the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, and we will talk about other things later."

Xiao Zhaolin, who was sitting below, also suddenly said to the guards beside him, "Go and get the things up."

The little eunuch agreed, then turned and left directly.

After a while, a armor with a little bit of cold light under the moonlight was lifted up.

This exquisite armor must have been carefully crafted, and it must have taken a lot of energy.

"This is the armor found by the general who was out in the field. My son liked it very much and wanted to give it to the queen mother."

The queen mother looked at the armor with a helpless smile on her face.

"The virtuous king is really good at joking, how can the Ai family use this armor? However, the Ai family sees that it is very suitable to give to the emperor."

The queen mother spoke to the eunuch below: "Go, take it to the emperor's side, and Aijia will see if it fits. If it doesn't fit, you can ask someone to change it."

Hearing this, the eunuch carried the armor and came to Xiao Shengxun's side.

The queen mother had already said so, and Xiao Shengyong couldn't refuse, so he simply got up and was ready to give it a try.

There is something wrong with this armor!

Before Xiao Shengyun got up, Su Lijin stretched out his hand and grabbed the wrist of the man beside him.

Xiao Shengyun was interrupted, and looked at Su Lijin with some doubts.

"What's the matter, Jin'er?"

"Your Majesty, what do you say today? It's also the Queen Mother's birthday banquet. The Queen Mother should be the main priority. How come it turned into giving you armor instead?"

Su Lijin spoke with a smile, and what she said was really hard to find.

After Xiao Shengyun came back to his senses, he also realized his mistake.

Xiao Zhaolin also opened his mouth in a sudden realization.

"The Empress is right, but I didn't think carefully enough, go, and bring up the Jade Buddha I found a few days ago."

The eunuch didn't dare to delay, so he turned around and went out quickly.

Not long after, a Jade Buddha was lifted up.

The exquisite Jade Buddha was delivered to the Empress Dowager, and people couldn't help but like it when they saw it.

With an uncontrollable smile on her face, the Queen Mother spoke to Xiao Zhaolin.

"Zhaolin really has a heart, the Ai family likes this birthday gift very much!"

There was harmony at the banquet, but Su Lijin was the only one who focused on the armor that had not been taken off.

The smell emanating from the armor was obviously poisoned by someone.

If Xiao Shengyun really put it on just now, I don't know what will happen.

Fortunately, it was stopped in time without arousing anyone's suspicion.

The turmoil seemed to subside, but just as the banquet was coming to an end.

A servant hurriedly came to Su Lijin's side.

She leaned over and lowered her voice in a panic, and spoke in Su Lijin's ear.

"Empress, it's bad! The maid in the back kitchen accidentally put peanuts in the dish that the Empress Dowager just served, what should I do?"

Hearing this, Su Lijin raised her eyes and set her gaze on the dishes just set in front of the Empress Dowager's table.

She didn't speak, and her thin lips seemed to be thinking about countermeasures.

I heard that it was because the Empress Dowager would turn red and itchy whenever she ate peanuts since she was young.

Even once, he almost suffocated to death because he accidentally ate a dish made of peanuts.

Since then, there has been such a rule in the palace.

Peanuts are not allowed in the Queen Mother's diet.

If this is really eaten, all the people in the back kitchen today will die.

Even himself, can't avoid a punishment.

Coupled with the matter of Mrs. Xi, if there is any deviation at this time, I will instantly become the target of public criticism.

At this moment, the queen mother just picked up the chopsticks to eat the food in front of her.

Su Lijin didn't have time to think, subconsciously stood up and said, "Mother's queen!"

The movements of the queen mother's hands stopped, and she frowned dissatisfied that someone interrupted her movements.

What's more, that person is Su Lijin.

But now, after all, it is at a banquet. There are so many people. If I am not patient, I am afraid that I will be scorned.

Thinking of this, she could only speak with patience and doubt.

"Queen, what's the matter?"

"Queen, the concubine wants to toast you with a glass of wine. Today is the concubine's birthday banquet, but the banquet arranged by the concubine did not please the concubine. It is the concubine's fault."

Su Lijin continued to speak as she spoke: "So, this cup of wine is like apologizing to the queen mother!"

After finishing speaking, Su Lijin directly raised her head and drank all the wine in the cup.

Even Xiao Shengyun couldn't help feeling puzzled by this move.

After all, Su Lijin is not good at drinking, he knows this very well.

Su Lijin has already talked about this point, the queen mother has to drink if she doesn't drink.

She was patient and drank the wine in the glass.

I thought it was over.

Who knew, just as he put down the wine glass, Su Lijin's voice came again.

"Mother, the concubine looks at the delicate dishes in front of you. The concubine loves you so much, how about changing it with the concubine? The concubine can try it too. If she likes it, I will ask the imperial dining room to cook it in the future. "
