Leader Lan Palace

Chapter 284 Making Mischief (2 More)
Erxi's mother was dragged off the boat.

The eunuchs in charge knew the rules, and while dragging Ji, they stretched out their hands to cover Erxi's mother's mouth tightly, so as not to let her shout out, which disturbed the master's interest.

But even so, how could the empress dowager have any interest in eating or swimming in the lake?

She turned cold, and didn't look at her son, but only looked at the lake: "Emperor, have you found out about Er Xi? Er Xi has been with Ai's family for many years, and Ai's family thinks they can see her temperament clearly. If she really stole people outside and had a wild child, she should at least reveal a little bit. But all these years, I have watched her do nothing wrong."

The emperor took a sip of his wine lightly: "The so-called widow has a lot of gossip, especially if she is a widow in her prime, there are more rumors like this among neighbors. There are so many rumors that the officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs dare not ignore them anymore, and have to Report to the son to know... such things, the son no longer has to search for rumors, just from the rumor itself, it is no longer appropriate to ask her to serve E Nie again."

The empress dowager endured her annoyance, and closed her eyes slightly: "Emperor, haven't you ever thought that many of the gossip and wrongs in front of these widows are actually fabricated out of nothing?!"

The emperor nodded without hesitation: "Ene is right. Many things in this world are caused by nothing."
.
Only those around the emperor and empress dowager knew what happened on the ship that day.

What outsiders could know was that Erxi's mother, who had a reputation in front of the empress dowager, disappeared inexplicably.Even if someone carefully inquired with the people in the Empress Dowager's palace, they would all presume that Erxi was ill and that it was not suitable for her to continue serving the Empress Dowager, so she was sent out of the palace to retire.

The pure concubine and the empress served beside the empress dowager, and she also witnessed Wanxi's suffering that day, so when she heard about Erxi's mother, she just smiled lightly.

"Where is such a coincidence in this world?"

Qiaorong, the woman next to Concubine Chun, was also thinking: "It's because the empress was not good enough to protect her subordinates in front of the empress dowager, so now she's taking the head of Erxi's mother?"

Concubine Chun stared at her still beautiful face in the glass mercury mirror, but still stained with some traces of time: "From the outside, it looks like this. But if you think about it, the Empress Dowager has always bowed her head and ears in front of the Empress Dowager. Erxi It can be regarded as useful to the empress dowager, how dare the empress take out her anger on Erxi's mother afterward?"

Qiao Rong was a little puzzled: "If it's not the queen, who else could it be?"

Concubine Chun also squinted her eyes, and slowly combed her black hair with a toothbrush: "...in this world, who else dares to do things that even the queen dare not do?"

Qiao Rong was also taken aback: "Could it be the emperor? But... why is the emperor?"

Concubine Chun also stopped her toothbrush: "The emperor's thoughts are the most difficult to guess. He may have done this for the empress, or to restrain the empress dowager... However, it may also be for that woman."

"That woman?" Qiao Rong couldn't help but widen her eyes: "Why does the master think so?"

Concubine Chun put down her toothbrush, turned her head and stared at Qiao Rong: "That day you were also by Ben Gong's side. Why do you think that woman was punished by the Empress Dowager?"

Qiao Rong thought about it for a while, but she didn't dare to say that it was her master who first mentioned the woman behind the mother.So he just said: "...After all, the empress dowager can't understand that she is a woman with a Han surname."

Concubine Chun laughed: "Think about it, if the Empress hadn't said something more about the woman's beauty and intelligence' in front of the Empress Dowager, would the Empress Dowager have to call her to have a closer look?"
