The group's favorite little Fubao has become the most arrogant kid in the whole imperial city

Chapter 53 Why does this girl only remember the medicine?

"It was my mother who wanted to embarrass me! We both know why you are making things difficult for Xihe. Do you have to explain it to me?" Emperor Jingyuan's eyebrows were indifferent, and no other emotions could be seen, but his hands hidden behind his back were tightly clenched. "If my mother came back to be angry, then she should go back to the Taimiao early to cultivate herself!"

Once these words were spoken, the empress dowager was not given any face at all, and the mother and son started to confront each other openly.

The Queen Mother was horrified and covered her chest, as if she was going to collapse at any second.

"You...you actually..."

Emperor Jingyuan turned his eyes away and stopped looking.

The mother and son stood at the Nanwu Gate, neither willing to give way to the other. A group of concubines and princes accompanied the two to face the cold wind.

Xihe looked at her father for a while, then at the Queen Mother, her little face full of confusion. After a moment, she shook Emperor Jingyuan's arm and said in a baby voice, "Daddy, it's cold, and the Queen Mother is not feeling well. Let's go in."

Emperor Jingyuan didn't speak for a long while. He stared at his little daughter's cheek, which was slightly red from pain. After a long time, he sighed and said, "Well, listen to Xihe and go in."

Emperor Jingyuan went down the stairs. The empress dowager didn't want to make trouble anymore, so she held Madam Yun's hand and went in.

As soon as we arrived at Shoukang Palace, before we could even sit down, the empress dowager started again.

She glanced around and asked, "Emperor, why don't you see Concubine Shu? I haven't seen that girl for a long time, I miss her so much."

Emperor Jingyuan glanced at him calmly and said nothing.

How could the Queen Mother not know about Yun's affairs? Otherwise, why would she come back so eagerly?

The leader said nothing, and the concubines followed suit and pretended to be mute.

No one responded. The gentleness and kindness on the empress dowager's face suddenly froze, looking quite ugly. She had no choice but to speak on her own.

"Emperor, I know Yun'er has made some mistakes, but you have already punished her. It's time to let her go. It's no use for a concubine like her to stay in the cold palace every day."

Emperor Jingyuan lazily replied, "My mother is wrong. There is only the commoner Yun in the cold palace. How can there be a concubine?"

The Queen Mother was furious. "It's just the lives of a few palace maids. Is it necessary to punish her like this? What will happen if the news gets out? Let her go immediately!"

"Impossible." Emperor Jingyuan refused without even thinking about it.

The Queen Mother felt her skin was burning after being humiliated time and time again.

Xihe sat in the arms of Emperor Jingyun and said timidly: "But Queen Mother, the lives of the palace maids are also lives. They could have lived well."

"I'm talking to the Emperor, how dare you butt in!" The Queen Mother took out all her anger on Xihe. "How can a concubine like you have the right to repay those worthless lives? You are indeed raised in the cold palace, full of petty airs, without the slightest bit of nobility of a royal princess!"

Xihe clenched her fists and argued, "Daddy said that if the emperor breaks the law, he is guilty of the same crime as the common people. The Concubine should be punished for her mistakes. They are not worthless. They also have parents and relatives. If they die innocently, their parents and relatives will be sad too."

Many palace servants were left in Shoukang Palace, and everyone felt sad for a while.

The little princess is truly a blessing from God, she is so kind at heart.

The Queen Mother angrily slammed the table, causing a corner of the tablecloth to shake. Veins popped out of her forehead, and her face became more ferocious. "How dare you talk back to me! Chunhua! Teach this ignorant girl a lesson!"

Chunhua faced Emperor Jingyuan's gaze as cold as a sword and dared not move at all.

"What are you standing there for!" the Queen Mother shouted.

When Concubine Chen saw this, she was about to speak, but Emperor Jingyuan stopped her first.

"Let's see who dares!" Emperor Jingyuan's voice seemed to be chilled by a layer of ice, piercing into human bones.

He turned to look at the Queen Mother, his eyes were cold and expressionless, "Why are you so anxious, mother? Did Xihe say something wrong? If I remember correctly, that is the law of Tianshuo. What? Do you want to disregard the ancestral rites and laws?" The Queen Mother was so angry that her whole body was shaking. Emperor Jingyuan hid Xihe behind him and did not give in at all.

Seeing the two of them facing each other again, Chunhua hurriedly pulled the empress dowager's sleeve.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. Concubine Shu has been in the care of the Queen Mother since she was a child. The Queen Mother is also very worried."

Emperor Jingyuan did not respond.

If the hard way doesn’t work, you have to try the soft way.

The Queen Mother relaxed her expression and played the emotional card, "Emperor, Yun'er has been with me since she was a child. I haven't seen her for so many years. I really miss her. How about this, you let her out to accompany me for a while."

The Empress Dowager has already taken a step back, and logically, Emperor Jingyuan should also take a step back and let the matter go.

But Emperor Jingyuan was famous for not being easily persuaded. "Since my mother likes Yun so much, let her go to the Imperial Ancestral Temple to accompany you. She doesn't have to return to the palace. This will satisfy my mother's wishes and I can give an explanation to the world."

The Queen Mother's fake smile almost broke.

What does it mean to accompany her to the Imperial Ancestral Temple?
If a concubine went to the Imperial Ancestral Temple, she would never be allowed to leave.

It was obvious that Emperor Jingyuan wanted to send Yun to death.

The Queen Mother took the cup of hot tea, but her hands were unsteady.

Seeing that there was no room for maneuver in Concubine Shu's matter, the Empress Dowager had no choice but to put it aside for the time being and look for an opportunity to bring it up later.

If we anger Emperor Jingyuan again and really send the person to the Taimiao, it would be a waste of time and effort.

"I think the emperor is becoming more and more determined." The Queen Mother sighed, "Wanyu's marriage is fine, but he can get a divorce just like that, and he is not afraid of being laughed at if it gets out."

The Queen Mother has been seeking death for many years and she never changes her habit, just like clearing a minefield, she hits everyone with every step.

Emperor Jingyuan paused while holding the cup. "What a coincidence! I was just about to tell my mother about this."

The Queen Mother was surprised, "What does the Emperor want to say?"

Emperor Jingyuan lazily changed his posture, staring at the empress dowager with his dark eyes, and said word by word: "In five days, Yuanyang will go to Beimo to replace Liuyuan as the border guard."

The Queen Mother hurriedly looked at Madam Yun behind her, who gave her a bitter smile.

"How can this be possible! She is a woman, and instead of learning how to take care of her husband and children, she is shouting for war and killing every day. How can she be displeased!" The Queen Mother had always been dissatisfied with Zhao Wanyu. When she heard that he was going to lead the troops, her anger reached its peak.

"Why not? Yuanyang was able to follow me to quell the rebellion in the Northern Desert, and he can do it now." Emperor Jingyuan's eyes turned, with some ambiguity, and his tone gradually slowed down, with a little tentativeness, "Or does the Queen Mother not want Yuanyang to go to the border to take charge of the military power, just like... back then?"

Emperor Jingyuan knew how Liu Yuan got his position, and the Empress Dowager knew it even better.

The Queen Mother couldn't help it, and her smiling mask cracked for a moment, revealing a resentful expression.

Emperor Jingyuan sneered and handed Xihe to Concubine Chen.

"The Imperial Concubine, please take Xihe back to the palace first. You can also leave."

Concubine Chen took a quick look and knew that the mother and son had something to say, "I understand. I will take Xihe and leave now."

Xihe lay in Concubine Chen's arms and waved to the receding Emperor Jingyuan, "Daddy, come find me later! I haven't taken my medicine yet!"

Emperor Jingyuan: “…”

This girl, why does she only remember the medicine?
