Chapter 19 Empress Dowager Gao: In the end, she is not as good as the sixth brother who knows the etiquette and abides by the rules

Zhao Xu accompanied Zhu Shi and talked for a while, and it was almost noon.

Mrs. Zhu knew that she should leave.

Therefore, he wanted to bid farewell to Zhao Xu.

But Zhao Xu remembered something and asked, "Sister, did you ever take Wu Niang to the Grandmother's Hall to thank you?"

Mrs. Zhu froze for a moment, then shook her head: "My sister misses Brother Six, but she forgot about it!"

As she spoke, she became anxious: "What should I do?"

To offend Baoci Palace, for a concubine like her, it is like the collapse of the sky.

Zhao Xu was not surprised either.

His biological mother had never had any political sensitivity.

So, Wen Yan persuaded: "Sister, don't worry, my mother has always been generous and loving, and I wouldn't blame my sister!"

"However, to make up for it, my sister should take Wu Niang to thank you in front of the Grandmother's Hall!"

"This is etiquette, it must be respected!"

Zhu Shi was a little scared.

Empress Dowager Gao has a strong personality and is proud.

Back then, when the Holy Light of Mercy was present, she couldn't hold back her.

All affairs in the palace, big or small, are decided by Baoci Palace, and Qingshou Palace can't intervene!

As for the concubines in the harem, in front of Empress Dowager Gao, they were always terrified, for fear that they would be reprimanded if they made a mistake.

When Zhao Xu saw it, he immediately laughed, and said to Zhu Shi: "If my sister is worried, I will have the audacity to ask the mother of Kunning Hall to intercede for my sister in front of the mother!"

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhu was overjoyed: "If this is the case, it will be the best!"

In this palace, apart from the official family, it is the queen, who can make the queen mother give a little face.

Zhao Xu nodded, then called Feng Jing, and said: "You go to the Kunning Palace for me, and ask to see the empress, and ask the empress to take the time to come to Qingning Palace for a walk!"

"Yes!" Feng Jing immediately took the order and left.

Zhao Xu looked at Feng Jing's figure thoughtfully.

Zhao Xu knew about his own mother.

She is a very simple person.

It was so simple that he could make several bosom sisters in this intrigue.

Zhao Ji's biological mother, Chen Meiren, is one of them.

In her previous life, before Chen Meiren died, she entrusted Zhao Ji to the Zhu family—what kind of trust is this?Also what kind of feelings?

But precisely because of this, Zhu Shi has no political sensitivity.

She was born in a slightly cold background, and it is impossible for her to have a deep enough understanding of etiquette.

But Mrs. Zhu doesn't understand, doesn't it mean that Queen Xiang doesn't understand either?
Why did Empress Gao not tell her to go to Baoci Palace to thank her when Mrs. Zhu bid farewell to Kunning Hall?
"It's better to do it than to do it!" Zhao Xu said in his heart.

For those in power, what is the best way to regain a person's heart?
Undress and push food?
wrong!
The correct way is to let him make a small mistake first, and then appear in front of the other party with the appearance of an angel.

Or ignore the past, or even simply pretend that there is no such thing, and instead entrust it with a heavy responsibility.

In this way, the general ministers will be grateful and vow to repay it to the death!
This is a very simple and ancient but extremely effective trick of power.

This is the reason for the Chuzhuang King's Jueying meeting, and after the Guandu, Wei Wu burned the letters of the officials and Yuan Shao.

In his previous life, when Zhao Xu was around, he had been able to master and use this method very skillfully to control the officials.

"Whether it's true or not, it's a good thing for me!" Zhao Xu said in his heart.

Zhu Shi and the queen walked closer.

The more you will feel at ease with the queen!

Get along a few more times, maybe they can still be girlfriends.

At this point, Zhao Xu has enough confidence in his biological mother.

……

"Mother..." Liang Weijian slowly walked to the side of the Empress Dowager Gao who was resting with her eyes closed, and then called out in a low voice.

"What's the matter?" Empress Dowager Gao opened her eyes.

"Shi De has returned to the palace!" Liang Weijian said in a low voice: "I have just gone to the front of the Palace of Funing, greetings to everyone!"

Empress Dowager Gao's eyes blurred for a moment: "Shi Deyi? Isn't he sick at home?"

Liang Weijian lowered his head and said, "It is said that after being reprimanded by the imperial decree, Shi Duzhi suddenly came to his senses, so he dragged his sick body back to the palace yesterday, and today he served in front of the imperial court!"

"Really?" Empress Dowager Gao gently stroked the soft hair of the raccoon slave in her arms, but there was clearly some distrust in her tone.

Liang Weijian didn't answer, but just lowered his head.

Empress Dowager Gao did not continue to pursue the matter.

She knows that sometimes, she should turn a blind eye.

Liang Weijian let out a deep breath, then leaned in front of Empress Dowager Gao, and said in a low voice, "Madam, I heard that the fifth daughter of the emperor is well. Today, Concubine De took the fifth daughter to Kunning Palace to thank you!"

Empress Dowager Gao didn't speak, but gently stroked the liu slave in her arms.

Seeing Liang Weijian, he boldly continued, "Concubine De, at this moment, should be reunited with the Prince of Yan'an in Qingning Palace!"

"It's time for Concubine De to reunite with Brother Six!" Empress Dowager Gao finally said, "Since Concubine De became pregnant last year and the Emperor ordered Brother Six to move to Qingning Palace, their mother and child have not seen each other for quite a while!"

Liang Weijian listened and just smiled.

Empress Dowager Gao is a very proud person. Except for Empress Xiang, none of the other concubines in this palace can catch her eyes.

However, Liang Weijian's smile did not last long.

Soon, Lao Zongyuan, who was waiting in the empress dowager's hall, came to report: "Your Majesty, the empress and concubine De beg to see you..."

"Oh!" Empress Dowager Gao stood up and asked, "Empress and Concubine De, why do you want to come here?"

She remembers it carefully!
They prayed to the queen at the Daxiangguo Temple, but the prayers were made in the name of the sixth brother, praying for the emperor's speedy recovery, and they even let people know.

She still remembered that a few days ago, the empress bypassed her concubine and sent a decree directly to the Imperial City Secretary and the Inner Servant to let the imperial physician Qian Yiye enter the palace.

This matter, although it is a small matter.

But he didn't even say hello, and waited until he mentioned it before pleading guilty.

On a big scale, this is not abiding by etiquette!

Didn't you tell the queen herself?

Is there any reason why it is in the hall and the wife is in the house?
The words were still ringing in his ears, and after only a few days, he bypassed her again to give Shi De the edict.

In fact, Empress Dowager Gao didn't care if Shi De didn't come back.

What Empress Dowager Gao is concerned about is: the behavior of empress Xiang repeatedly bypassing her as a concubine.

Lao Zongyuan didn't know about these things, but he also heard the embarrassment in Empress Dowager Gao's tone, so he could only answer with his head down: "Zouzhi empress, according to the empress, it was Concubine De who visited the King of Yan'an in Qingning Palace. The reason for thanking you?

Concubine De was timid and afraid of being admonished by her empress, so Yan'an County King sent Feng Jing, who was in the Qingning Palace, to report to Kunning Hall, begging the queen to come forward to intercede for Concubine De, begging for her grace..."

Empress Dowager Gao listened, her expression suddenly changed, she sat down again, and asked: "Sixth brother really said such a thing?"

Old Zongyuan prostrated himself on the ground and said, "I dare not hide anything from what the empress said!"

Empress Dowager Gao laughed immediately.

"There are one or two in this big family, but in the end, they are not as good as Sixth Brother who knows etiquette and rules!"

……

Note: During the Yuanyou period, Mrs. Zhu was often scolded and cried by Empress Dowager Gao because of her carelessness.
