Stepmother Shaoguang

So this is to ask the teacher to blame?

He Shaoguang thought it was funny, this eccentricity was really obvious.

If the Empress Dowager really wanted to take her under the knife in order to vent her anger, would the saint go down this step and exchange himself, and never mention that matter with the Empress Dowager again?
It's really a good deal, and it's really a waste of time to cook her a meal with so much effort just now.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Qiao Yuping's expression was half a smile, fearing that she might do something bad, she quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, it's been so long, and you can't blame your husband for what happened. My aunt is a very powerful person, and I think she still likes you very much."

like her?He Shaoguang could not deny that the Empress Dowager was kind to him in the past, but it is unknown what it will be like when he is summoned tomorrow.

After staying in the palace to sleep all night, feeling out of breath and having a hasty breakfast, He Shaoguang stood by the Queen Mother's door to greet her, this is the proper rule.

The Empress Dowager actually got up early, she had to recite sutras in front of the Buddha statue for half an hour before serving meals, and she didn't start seeing people until after she washed up, so He Shaoguangji stood and waited at the door until her feet were sore, and then a maid raised the heavy windshield curtain to ask her to go in.

He said politely: "Second Madam Lu, the Empress Dowager invites you in."

He Shaoguang went in behind the lady-in-waiting, and secretly stretched his sore calves.

In a flash, the Empress Dowager on the seat was plainly dressed, and her complexion was much worse than yesterday.

"Ai's family has to chant scriptures in the morning, so you've been waiting for a long time." The Empress Dowager's expression was still so kind, as if she didn't care about anything.

But He Shaoguang knew that if she really didn't care about anything, she wouldn't let herself stand outside like a punishment for two hours, at least she would invite people into the side hall to sit down and drink a cup of hot tea.

Her tiny arms couldn't twist her thighs, and she coughed weakly twice: "The empress dowager is willing to see my wife, it's my wife's luck, it doesn't matter how long you wait."

She didn't say it just to please her, it seemed hypocritical, and she coughed twice, making the queen mother feel that she was freezing outside, and the queen mother could feel a little relieved.

Otherwise, if she stood there for an hour and didn't react at all, it would make the Queen Mother feel that she hadn't vented her anger, and make more ruthless tricks?

Her attitude was very good, and she put herself very low, which made the Queen Mother feel a little more comfortable.

Sure enough, the queen mother nodded with satisfaction: "Although you are a director, you still have to pay attention to your own body. Don't turn around and freeze in Ai's house. Your husband will not follow you. Let Ah Ning make you a bowl of ginger tea to dispel the cold."

After saying such a long sentence, the Queen Mother couldn't help but coughed twice. Nurse Ning took a step forward to pat her on the back. She took a sip of hot tea and laughed at herself: "Look at Aijia, and you still say you, your body has become this dilapidated look."

Nanny Ning scolded: "The Empress Dowager is too worried, which makes the Second Madam Lu laugh."

Nanny Ning followed the queen mother when she was young, she didn't need to pay attention to any rules when talking to the queen mother, just like an old sister.

The old sister naturally knew best what the Queen Mother wanted to say, so she brought the topic to King Yan with a few words.

He Shaoguang comforted the Empress Dowager with a worried face: "My wife knows that the Empress Dowager is sad. It's just that the dead are gone, and the living must live up to the other's concerns."

What she said was not entirely false.

After hearing this, the queen mother lazily leaned on the cushion, not saying a word.

After a while, her tone softened: "The Ai family has been grieved over the past few days. There are some rumors in the palace that the sage knew about A Qing's plan long ago, and the person who reported the matter made the sage follow his plan. This made A Qing unable to turn back. The Ai family would like to ask you, what do you think of the person who made the suggestion?"

It was snowing outside, but He Shaoguang was in a cold sweat. She looked terrified: "My wife dare not talk about state affairs."

"It doesn't matter, Shengren and Ah Qing are both the biological sons of the Ai family, so you should treat it as a family matter."

How can it be considered a family matter when all generations of the country are involved?
He Shaoguang muttered for a while and said, "The minister's wife is stupid, the empress dowager should thank that man for his advice."

The queen mother's expression turned cold: "What? You are defending him, do you know who he is?"

"My wife doesn't know." She swallowed her saliva to stabilize her mind, and chose her words carefully, "But from my wife's point of view, the country has changed hands, and the world is unstable. If this person hides it for his own safety and does not report it, then King Yan may not be able to win when he meets the sage.

"Furthermore, the palms and backs of your hands are full of flesh. I believe that you treat the sage with the same heart as His Highness Yan Wang. If the King Yan wins, the sage will definitely feel resentment in your heart." He Shaoguang glanced at the Empress Dowager's expression after saying this, and continued to say, "This is incomprehensible to you, why should you treat yourself so harshly?"

The queen mother did not speak, not because she was angry, but because she was dumb.

She was blaming the saint, why she didn't let her brother go, but she also knew in her heart that she was biased, treason is a capital crime, and the crime is unforgivable, so she blamed herself for having such partial thoughts.

Normally, she just favors the younger son in small things, but this time the eldest son almost died, including his prince and grandson, these are also her grandsons and great-grandsons!

When the queen mother had such thoughts, she kept examining herself and blaming herself.

But people are always unwilling to admit their mistakes, especially when she has been the queen mother for so long and always thinks that she is the most honorable person in the world. Even if she is wrong, a saint should not show face when she comes to see her.

So she shifted her resentment towards her elder son, complaining that he couldn't be softer with her.

Just twisting like this, the queen mother made her face sallow by almost self-harming her body, and the saint misunderstood her because she missed the rebel king Yan too much, so he simply ignored her.

It is said that mother and child are connected, how come she and her son have become more and more separated after being the queen mother for so long?

The queen mother's eyes were sore, she turned her face away.

Nurse Ning hurriedly saved the Empress Dowager's face, and said to He Shaoguang who was still kneeling: "Second Madam Lu, go back and have a drink of ginger tea first. The Empress Dowager got up this morning with too much energy, and I will talk to you next time."

He Shaoguang knelt for a long time and almost couldn't get up. Nanny Ning pointed to a little maid to take her back to the side hall where she stayed last night, and take a rest for now.

With no outsiders around, He Shaoguang lay down with his clothes on.Looking at the wooden beams on the roof, I thought: It should be all right.

But the Empress Dowager did not let her out of the palace, but let her live in her own palace, and sent someone to the Lu family to spread the word that she liked He Shaoguang, and asked her to stay for a few more days to talk with her.
