I am the Empress Dowager!

Chapter 388 It has not been easy for the Queen Mother these years!

Deng Sui's laughter also caused a bitter smile to appear on Deng Zhi's face.

He really couldn't imagine that even now, why are these two still playing some kind of game?

Although life has been difficult for the Deng family in recent years, and a large part of this situation is "thankful" to His Majesty.

But now the big man has become like this. Although there is no great chaos in the world, all kinds of chaos are coming one after another. Deng Zhi sees it and is anxious in his heart.

But what Deng Zhao didn't expect was that the one inside the palace was still carrying him to death, and as for the one outside.
"Queen Mother, since the Queen Mother has returned to the capital, she must be worried about Your Majesty and the big man.

In this case, why are you still unwilling to return to the palace to take charge of the overall situation? "

"I want this too, but do you think His Majesty will be willing?" Deng Sui looked at his brother who looked anxious in front of him, and was touched by his loyalty again, but he did not express his inner plan.

He just warned his brother not to tell his whereabouts, and not to worry.

"Brother, don't worry. Although your Majesty is young, he still knows the importance of things.

Now it's just that in this world, there are still those guys who have set up His Majesty.

Although His Majesty is a man of great talent and strategy, he is still considered to be from a military background, and he is quite far-sighted and young and energetic.

Some things are inevitable. "

Deng Sui just chuckled and lay down on the soft couch without looking too worried. Looking at his anxious brother, he waved his hand and told him to leave quickly.

Here, there is no use except making myself tired.

Seeing his sister like this, Deng Zhi wanted to say something, but in the end he could only sigh, then turned and left.

"Queen Mother. If the world continues to be in such a stalemate, I'm afraid there will really be a big mess!"

"Don't worry, it's not yet time." Deng Sui just waved his hands calmly, then changed to a more comfortable position and continued to lie down.

It's really been a long time since I've enjoyed such a soft bed. The life of a child of this aristocratic family really makes me miss it.

Sometimes Deng Sui thought that the Deng family's life was simply more comfortable than his life in the palace, and it was indeed missed.

As for Cai Lun, who had been silent on the side, he also chuckled and took the small hammer for beating the body from the hand of the attendant. After Deng Sui turned sideways, he gently beat Deng Sui's body.

Looking at the Queen Mother in front of him, Cai Lun couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

People say that the Queen Mother is good, but who knows what kind of life the Queen Mother leads.

Even so, the Queen Mother still has to work hard for the country of the Han Dynasty. This country is not hers!
Sometimes when he looked at Deng Sui, who was calm and composed in front of others, but would become exhausted in an instant, he would always have some thoughts that he shouldn't have in his heart.

As a close associate of the Queen Mother, he was a powerful eunuch and the eunuch who knew the most secrets about Deng Sui.

Of course, he also knew how much unbearable pressure the Queen Mother had endured as a big man.

Not to mention anything else, just the identity of the Queen Mother is a huge stone weighing on this woman's shoulders.

As the queen mother of a country, she has to bathe and change clothes before going to court, then dress up, and be carefully served by more than 80 palace servants for two full hours before everything can be completed.

The courtiers once said that this is an extremely important time when heaven, earth and people are communicating with each other. The emperor needed to fast to worship heaven, not to mention the fact that the queen mother, whose body is Yin, came to the court to take charge of the government?

Therefore, etiquette must be observed!
Make this inherently unlucky thing as peaceful and auspicious as possible.

The purpose of bathing and fasting is to expel the impurities from the body, but as the Queen Mother, she has to communicate with heaven and earth in the court, so it cannot be a simple bathing and changing of clothes.

A more in-depth cleanup is needed.

Every time before going to court, the Queen Mother must clean every inch of her body, and then use the secret techniques of the palace to empty out all the feces and urine from her body!

The person responsible for doing this must be a close confidant of the Queen Mother. In other words, most of the time, Cai Lun does it himself.

At such times, the Queen Mother usually lay on her side on a cold stone slab.

Then Cai Lun, a confidant eunuch, first inserted a copper pipe into her back court, and then introduced the concoction from the copper pipe into the back court. Then the palace maid eunuch pushed her abdomen and squeezed it hard to drain all the fluids. Filthy things.

Every time he did this, it would elicit countless screams from the Queen Mother. Especially at the beginning, the Queen Mother's screams even made Cai Lun a little sad and a little difficult to do anything about.

But every time she went to court, she had to do this many times to ensure that all the dirt in the Queen Mother's body was completely eliminated.

Finally, clean it, take out the copper tube, apply perfume on the Queen Mother's back court, and finally insert a round jade anal plug with dragon and phoenix patterns into it and keep it there until the end of the court meeting.

As for the Queen Mother, each court meeting lasted for nearly a full day, during which she did not dare to enter, let alone make any unnecessary movements.

Because Cai Lun could clearly feel that the Queen Mother's body had never been comfortable in the court.

But even so, the Queen Mother has still been in charge of the Han Dynasty for more than ten years, taking care of her Majesty from such a small infant to the handsome young man he is today.

But as the child grows older, he no longer needs his mother.

Cai Lun half-knelt on the ground, gently tapping Deng Sui's body to slowly relax him, and watched as the brows furrowed in pain in his sleep gradually relaxed.

Cai Lun's mind finally calmed down.

Cai Lun, who was also born in the imperial palace, also knew very well that His Majesty was waiting...or perhaps gambling.
"Your Majesty refuses to give in, just to see what other methods the other side can come up with. He has his own troops and horses to ensure his own safety.

As long as the other party dares to make any outrageous move, he will uproot the other party with the fury of thunder in the next moment without hesitation!
But when His Majesty treats himself as a bait, he really never thought that sometimes this kind of thing is not something he can bear? "

In Cai Lun's heart at this time, he silently sighed for the Majesty in the palace.

In October of the second year of Yongkang of the Han Dynasty, in the second year after the Emperor of the Han Dynasty "expelled" the Queen Mother and took over the power alone, the Empress of the Han Dynasty who was pregnant with Liujia suddenly fell down while walking in the center of the palace.

Although people from the Imperial Medical Office tried their best to save her, in the end, they could not save the baby in the queen's belly.

That was Emperor Liu Long of the Han Dynasty, his first child to be born.

He originally had high hopes for this.

but now.
"Check, check carefully for me, check with all your strength!"
