Chapter 369 Secret

After hearing what Ye Yunshui said, the queen mother was very emotional.

Naturally, what she thought was not so superficial as the guards bumping into Ye Yunshui... The palace is always closely related to the situation in the court, and a slight movement may trigger a series of things to happen.

In the eyes of some people, the assassin who chased after the palace last night was a weather vane that foreshadowed Emperor Ming Qi's mood!

Ye Yunshui has always admired the Queen Mother, and in her heart she only felt that the Queen Mother was the helmsman hidden behind the court, controlling the balance of the situation.

Now, Emperor Ming Qi couldn't bear being restrained and restrained, and began to deploy troops to find his own way.

But when this road was paved, it was already deformed, because the purpose was to get rid of the reins of the Queen Mother, the helmsman, rather than to pave the way for him to become a wise king through the ages.

Emperors have been extremely suspicious since ancient times, and Ye Yunshui is even more unwilling to comment on whether Emperor Ming Qi is a sage and wise king, and whether he can leave a strong name in the history of the Great Moon Kingdom.From her point of view, it may be a hundred times more difficult for Emperor Ming Qi to break free from the empress dowager's rein. Although he is the empress dowager's son and has the aura of a generation of emperors, he has never inherited the decisive spirit of the empress dowager.

The Queen Mother shouted those words, and the little eunuch at the door called out: "The emperor is here!"

The little eunuch heard the roar of the queen mother just now, and the voice of the roll call was trembling at the moment... Emperor Ming Qi walked into the hall with a dark face, and frowned when he saw Ye Yunshui kneeling on the ground, "My lord The concubine came to the palace this morning to visit the queen mother? Is this how you protect the health of the queen mother?"

The tone of questioning and dissatisfaction in these words was extremely strong, obviously he knew that the empress dowager's anger was inseparable from Ye Yunshui's arrival.

Ye Yunshui knelt on the ground and only replied, "If you want to answer the emperor, the minister's wife is here to visit the queen mother."

The Empress Dowager turned her head to see Emperor Ming Qi coming in, she didn't look surprised, she just frowned and said: "I heard that the Emperor was assassinated in Yuanji Temple yesterday, do you know if you caught the 'Assassin'?"

Emperor Ming Qi asked the queen mother about this before he could think about it, "It's just a shadow, don't worry about the queen mother, I am safe and sound, and I came to pay my respects to the queen mother, but the assassin ran very fast, and the guards didn't catch him on the spot."

"I couldn't hold it on the spot, so I went straight to Prince Zhuang's mansion?" The Empress Dowager's words were revealed, Emperor Ming Qi frowned, looked at Ye Yunshui thoughtfully, and said with a cold snort: "It turns out that the concubine Shizi was a Are you here to complain to me?"

"I don't dare." Ye Yunshui knelt on the ground, but she really didn't expect that Emperor Ming Qi would come to the Anhe Palace at this time, but he didn't come... Wei Xian chased the palace yesterday and lost someone, and the imperial guards went back She would report to Emperor Ming Qi that even if Qin Murong appeared in the room at that time, it did not mean that Emperor Ming Qi was not suspicious. She also took the opportunity to find out what Emperor Ming Qi's attitude towards the palace is!

Emperor Ming Qi snorted coldly and ignored, but heard the Empress Dowager say: "Is the emperor complaining that the concubine is talkative, or that the Ai family is meddling?"

"Empress mother!" Emperor Ming Qi didn't want to mention this matter because of Ye Yunshui's presence, but he knew the empress dowager's temper well. If he doesn't give her an explanation today, I'm afraid this matter will never pass. "That's to assassinate me. The assassin! The palace is supposed to assist my bodyguards in catching the assassins, but now that the deputy commander of my imperial bodyguards is detained without mentioning it, is it possible that I have to make an apology to the palace?"

"Your Majesty," the Empress Dowager sighed, "If they chase after Aijia's Anhe Palace, will Aijia let them search it?"

Emperor Ming Qi was full of impatience, "How can my mother compare two things on the same level, you are my mother's empress!"

"But that's your own brother! How can you insult his name like this?" The queen mother slapped the table hard, "It's fine to break into the inner house, and it's fine if the guards of the palace are not allowed to move, even the female family's bedroom has to be broken into. His concubine was not allowed to go to the doctor and died without mentioning it, but she still suspected Mu Rong, and... even used a knife with the concubine! Is this a guard or a robber? Is this an assassin or a house raid?"

"Don't say that Ai's family is deceiving you, the emperor himself has a look at the clothes of the concubine Shizi! Is the cut made by the blade fake?" The queen mother coughed several times at the last sentence, Emperor Ming Qi glanced at Ye Yunshui, but Seeing that there was really a cut in her clothes, the arrogance just now was much weaker, "This is because the guards have acted improperly, but you shouldn't detain the commander of my guards, right?"

"What's the use of such a bad guard?" The queen mother said sternly, "Dare to use a knife on the granddaughter-in-law of the Ai family, the emperor's nephew and daughter-in-law? Cutting off his head is already an advantage for him. If you don't kill the domineering slaves, you will only add stigma to the emperor! Don't you think that the palace's disobedience is a slap in the face. The palace has been turned upside down like this, but the emperor is really ashamed. The prince just got sick and couldn't afford it , accidents happened one after another, is this telling everyone that you can’t tolerate your younger brother? Or is it going to chill the hearts of those heroes who have worked so hard for you?!”

The empress dowager's harsh words made Emperor Ming Qi feel annoyed, "You know, empress mother, I can't blame me for being suspicious..."

"Many people have died because of the two words of children more than ten years ago. The emperor is so tolerant that he can't even tolerate his own relatives and nephews, right?" The humble Ye Yunshui was shocked!
This nephew must refer to Qin Murong, and the parent and son must be a certain prince... A few words from a child have been remembered in Emperor Ming Qi's heart for so many years. This... What's going on?

Ye Yunshui looked down at the bluestone brick surface, her heart was tumbling like a stormy sea, but she didn't dare to show any expression on her face, otherwise both Emperor Ming Qi and the Queen Mother would annoy her...

Hearing the empress dowager's mention, Emperor Ming Qi looked at Ye Yunshui suddenly, but saw her kneeling on the ground calmly and getting up, her appraising gaze stayed for a long time before moving away, Ye Yunshui heaved a sigh of relief, and listened to Emperor Ming Qi He sighed deeply, "I'm not that narrow-minded person, but the emperor is now shutting himself out and ignoring business matters. I have already visited him personally, what else do I need?"

"Your Majesty, just think about it. Who is going through all the dangers to keep the throne for you? Who is leading the army to expand the territory for you? Now he is sick because of running around all the year round... If he has the slightest selfishness, how can you sit still?" Is it so stable? Aijia doesn’t want a white-haired person to send a black-haired person, and watch the children and grandchildren surrounded by his knees be slaughtered!"

When the Empress Dowager said this, her tone was as calm as water, without the sharpness just now, but this made Emperor Ming Qi not know what to do!
Emperor Ming Qi was shocked, and he opened his mouth and didn't know how to speak. After being reprimanded by the empress dowager, he inevitably felt guilty, "What the empress dowager taught me is that I am narrow-minded, but the empress dowager's body is weak now. , it is not easy to go out of the palace, it is better to stay in the palace so that my son can respect you all the time!"

"You will never listen to Aijia's words." The queen mother frowned, "Aijia is tired now, and the emperor still has paperwork to approve, so I will delay the important matter and stay here with Aijia!"

The Empress Dowager was indeed tired, and Emperor Ming Qi had no choice but to salute and leave. When he walked up to Ye Yunshui, he looked at it thoughtfully for a few moments before striding away.

As soon as Emperor Ming Qi left, Eunuch Huang hurriedly stepped forward to help Ye Yunshui, who was still kneeling, to stand up, "Oh, Shizi Concubine's bones are not healthy, so hurry up and sit on the mat to rest her legs and feet before getting up!"

The maid quickly brought a futon over, and Ye Yunshui sat down on it, feeling that these two legs were almost not her own... The conversation between the Empress Dowager and Emperor Ming Qi did not carry her back, but this made Ye Yunshui feel She walked around from the closed gate of hell!
Everything the Queen Mother and Emperor Ming Qi said was a thorn, a thorn in Emperor Ming Qi's heart, but she overheard these words... Ye Yunshui touched his neck subconsciously, a thin layer of sweat had already oozed out Ye Yunshui felt at ease when he touched the blood jade unicorn pendant that had been attached to his chest. He concentrated on rubbing his feet, didn't speak, and didn't dare to look up at the Queen Mother. He only occasionally glanced at Eunuch Huang. See Ye but when he lowered his eyebrows and was pleasing to the eye, he was silent from the sidelines.

The Empress Dowager's eyes fell on Ye Yunshui, and she suddenly asked, "Have you rested yet?"

Ye Yunshui was stunned for a moment, "If you go back to the Queen Mother, you have already rested."

"Today I suddenly want to eat the herbal food you made, can the Ai family have such a good fortune?" The Empress Dowager Ruochang smiled kindly, as if Emperor Ming Qi had never been here.

Ye Yunshui quickly agreed, "It's my blessing that the Empress Dowager ordered my concubine's dishes, so I'll prepare the ingredients now..."

The queen mother nodded, and asked the maids to take Ye Yunshui to the small kitchen behind the bedroom.

Mr. Huang knew that the Queen Mother had something to say, "Queen Mother, you have to take care of yourself!"

"The Ai family is getting old, and what they say is no longer pleasant!" The queen mother sighed, "The Ai family has lived in this deep palace all their lives, what kind of filthy things such as brother-in-law killing and separation of flesh and blood have not been seen? Now it's time It's really bitter and sour for me! I'm afraid Ai's family will never have a chance to leave the palace again in this life..."

"Empress Dowager, you have taken good care of your body, so it's not impossible to go out of the palace!" Eunuch Huang accompanied him with a smile, and the Empress Dowager gave him a pointed look, "And pretending to be confused with Ai's family, how could he let Ai's family go out of the palace? What he respects is not the Ai family, but the military power in the southeast!"

Eunuch Huang laughed stiffly, his face flickering with uneasiness, the queen mother sank, "Ai's family is really tired, Ai's family should take a rest first, and then help Ai's family to write a letter to the southeast, so that they can be filial When the canna from the southeast came, the Ai family suddenly wanted to eat it..."

Eunuch Huang responded with his lips, but he was astonished in his heart, the queen mother is about to move...

The maid took Ye Yunshui to the small kitchen in the back hall, Ye Yunshui instructed the nuns to choose and prepare the ingredients, and then went to the clean room under the pretext.

She sat down in the clean room, but her heart just settled down!
She received too much information this morning, and she needs to digest it for a while... What children's words, what about whether to sit firmly in the seat, after hearing these words, four words popped out of Ye Yunshui's ears Word: the head hangs...
