Chapter 370
As expected, the head eunuch stopped abruptly, his legs stiffened on the spot.

"No way? It's so evil?" He muttered, and then he looked at the timid eunuchs beside him, pointing at the slightly shaking weed pile, "You guys, let me go over and see what is it?" what happened!"

The eunuchs looked at each other, thinking of the icy temperature remaining on their shoulders, a chill suddenly surged in their hearts.It was as if there was a hand on the shoulders of several people, and the cold and delicate touch made people's scalps tingle.

"No! Small, small ones dare not..."

There was a dead person on his back just now, and now seeing the pile of weeds shaking and talking to himself, several eunuchs subconsciously felt that they had run into something evil, "Elder-in-law, let's get out of here as soon as possible, this... here Kind of wicked."

It was fine before, and there was an extremely weird quietness.At this time, the sudden thin rustling sound was more like the howling of ghosts, which made people unconsciously dare not move rashly.

The head eunuch glared at them with hatred, but he felt a little bit unwilling in his heart.He glanced in the direction of Qingli again, but the weed stopped shaking all of a sudden, he squinted his eyes, and when he was about to look over carefully, he saw a white fluffy thing.

Now, the head eunuch immediately withdrew his gaze and didn't dare to look at it anymore.

"Let's go! Today is really unlucky!" He cursed at each other in a low voice, and hurriedly left here with a few accompanying eunuchs.

Qing Li was lying behind the pile of weeds, and he was relieved when he saw a few people walking away.

The same is true for Wen Yu, imitating Qing Li, she let out a long sigh of relief, and stroked Dabai's soft hair.

"Okay, it's getting late, let's go back as soon as possible." Qing Li said, pulling Wen Yu up with one hand.Xu Shi felt that something was wrong, seeing that there were two weeds stuck on top of her head, and some not-so-clean mud on her body, so she reached out and wiped it off for her.

When Qing Li made such a move, Wen Yu subconsciously looked at the dirt on her body, and when she saw it, she hurriedly covered her eyes and screamed, "It's over, if you go back like this, mother will definitely find out."

Although she played too crazy in Beiyuan, she was not in the same situation as she is today.

Qing Li frowned slightly, and had no choice but to comfort her, "Let's go back first, and then I'll help the princess take care of it, so that Concubine Zhao won't notice, how about it?"

Wen Yu nodded vigorously, even more defenseless towards Qing Li.

After the two led Dabai back home, they took care of it.Fortunately, Concubine Zhao didn't notice, and the two pretended to be nonchalant because of this "secret".This business can be regarded as muddling through. In the next few days, Qing Li still diligently took care of Zhao Taifei's mother and daughter.

For several days, there was almost no sign of trouble.Qing Li took care of Concubine Zhao's mother and daughter, and knew more about their lives.More importantly, during this period of time, she has almost figured out the pattern of Beiyuan. In this way, the time is ripe, and it is time for her to find the whereabouts of Princess Ange.

Thinking of this, Qing Li turned off the lights early, lay on the bed and waited for the opportunity.

The night is sultry, and the cold Beiyuan is like a wall that traps the cold wind.Even in the room, there are occasional wisps of wind passing through the wall, whistling calmly and silently, silently beating on the solid but disastrous wall.Although it is the first watch, Wen Yu must have fallen asleep, and it is the best time for Qing Li to visit at night.

Thinking about it, she turned over from the bed and opened the door carefully.

There was an extremely slight "squeak", and the door opened in response. She looked around and saw that the entire Beiyuan was shrouded in darkness. ready to step away.

Who knew that after walking a few steps, he saw a long shadow at the corner of the wall.Qing Li was startled, and when she was about to turn her body to hide, Concubine Zhao had already appeared in the night.

There is no one around, Beiyuan is empty, where is there a place for Qing Li to hide?Thinking about it, she stepped forward bravely, bowed her head and saluted, "Concubine Zhao."

Concubine Zhao nodded her head, her eyes did not linger on Qing Li, but she was sized up from the corner of her eye.She opened her mouth lightly, and asked in a deep voice, "It's already late at night, where are you going?"

Qing Li shook her head, and immediately explained, "The concubine was worrying too much, but she was bored at night and couldn't sleep, so she thought it's better to go out for a walk."

Concubine Zhao didn't know whether to believe it or not, she stared at the moonlight faintly, but her face was cold and indifferent.She looked at it for a while, and then said as if admonishing, "It's windy outside, it's better not to move around." After speaking, she turned her back and left straight away.

Looking at her dignified back, Qing Li always felt a little paradoxical.Concubine Zhao didn't talk much on weekdays, but tonight she warned her like this, the way she listened to these words seemed to be pointing.It seems that this Concubine Zhao is not as simple as she appears on the surface.

After all this turmoil, it still couldn't go away.Qing Li frowned slightly, but finally went back to sleep.

Zhou Guochaotang.

There were almost three poles in the sun, but Xiao Ziheng was hardly seen for a long time.As a result, it is naturally a bit more criticism.All the ministers waited on the court hall, looking at the empty dragon chair, but the high position was empty, and finally no one appeared to preside over the overall situation.For several days in a row, there was naturally a lot of discussion.

Fortunately, there is a regent in charge, so there will be no confusion.

It's the same today, except that there is no one on the dragon chair, and Xiao Jin presides over everything else.Such a situation, although it is the best situation at the moment, but in the end, there are always a few people who feel that it is not appropriate.

Most officials are still corrupt in thinking and always want to follow the steps.Even if it's just a young emperor, the current situation always makes people feel a bit like "there are no tigers in the mountains, and monkeys are called kings".

The young emperor Xiao Ziheng was at the center of the entire court. Although the officials bowed their heads and listened to Xiao Jin's words, they couldn't help but wonder about the whereabouts of the young emperor Xiao Ziheng and why he had been missing for so long.Even if you are infected with the wind and cold, it doesn't seem that you will not recover for a few days. Why did it take so long?
Things in the royal family are more or less watery.

In the middle of the early court, suddenly the door opened wide, and behind the rows of officials was the Empress Dowager Zhong who appeared against the light.Looking carefully, she saw that Queen Mother Zhong was not the only one. She was dressed in an official uniform, and beside her was the young emperor Xiao Ziheng who was wearing a smaller dragon robe.

One big and one small, the two happened to interrupt the morning court.

The appearance of Empress Dowager Zhong was like a stone hitting the surface of the water, and there were layers of ripples immediately.

It was as if there were insects chirping outside the court hall, it was so ear-piercing that it hurt the ears.

"My minister, see the queen mother, see the emperor." After being stunned for a while, all the officials knelt down and saluted.The regent stepped down from his position of honor and moved forward all the way to the Empress Dowager Zhong, "See the Empress Dowager, and see Your Majesty."

Seeing this, Empress Dowager Zhong just nodded lightly, her eyes flicked across his face like a dragonfly on water, and then said "Excuse me" in a deep voice, and then stopped looking at him.

The courtiers stood up one after another, and so did Xiao Jin.From the beginning to the end, his eyes never fell on the Empress Dowager Zhong.

It was as if what happened that night had never happened.

She led Xiao Ziheng to sit on the dragon chair, and then ordered two eunuchs to place a screen in front of her and listen to the government behind the curtain.

In such a situation, the ministers of the DPRK and China did not expect it.Everyone originally thought that Empress Dowager Zhong just sent the little Zhou Emperor here, how did they know that she would just stay here and not leave?Even listen to politics behind the curtain.With a woman sitting there, how do they discuss many matters in the court?

Although it is unclear, some officials have begun to report on several major events in recent days.When the little Zhou Emperor heard this, his face was extremely stiff, and he looked at the Queen Mother Zhong behind the screen from time to time.From this point of view, it seems that all words must be approved by the Empress Dowager Zhong, which makes people feel a little embarrassed and uncomfortable when they look at them.

The Empress Dowager Zhong gave him winks, and the little Zhou Emperor nodded and shook his head after turning around.He seemed to feel slighted, and after nodding, he felt that something was wrong, so he said timidly, "Zuzao."

Such obedience has made many officials look a little more embarrassed.

Therefore, one of the upright officials took a step forward and risked his life to remonstrate, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty has been cold for several days. Now that you are in court, you need to let Your Majesty know many things. It's just that the Empress Dowager is a woman... Earlier There is a rule that women are not allowed to participate in politics, and now the empress dowager knows too many things above the court, I am afraid that something is wrong."

The upright official's tone softened, and he had already spoken in the most respectable way.Knowing the government is not appropriate, let alone the Empress Dowager Zhong intends to listen to the government behind the curtain in order to make a decision later?If a woman decides all affairs in the court and in the middle, wouldn't it be ridiculous and generous to spread the news to Zhou Guo?

It would be fine if there was only the Little Zhou Emperor, but there is a regent in the court.

That being the case, why bother?
Empress Dowager Zhong was not annoyed, the figure behind the screen did not move at all, but from a distance, it seemed that she picked up the teacup and knocked on the lid unconsciously.After pondering for a while, a slightly resentful voice came from behind the screen, "The Ai family also understands that this fact is inappropriate. But there is nothing the Ai family can do..."

As she spoke, she put down the teacup and sighed heavily.After sighing, she said helplessly, "The emperor is young, even if he enters the court, he may not be able to take the lead alone, especially at a young age, he is more likely to be manipulated by others. The emperor's mind is pure, how can he tell the truth?" Truth and slander?"

Speaking of this, several officials subconsciously looked at the upright officials who risked their lives to speak out.

He was a little embarrassed for a moment, not knowing whether to continue talking or to back down.

After all, the Empress Dowager Zhong didn't embarrass him for too long, the figure behind the screen turned her head slightly, and she didn't know who she was looking at.Then he said to himself, "It's not easy for the late emperor. The Ai family has been with the late emperor for so long, so they naturally know how much thought the late emperor put into it. Before coming, the Ai family knew that this move would make people feel dissatisfied, but the Ai family had no choice. If the emperor listens to the villain's slander, the consequences will be much more serious than being gossip about the Ai family. Therefore, even if the Ai family is misunderstood by others, and no matter how wronged in his heart, he has to do so. The Ai family must give the emperor Check it out, otherwise, even if the Ai family dies, they will have no face to face the late emperor!"

Empress Dowager Zhong seemed to be very wronged when she mentioned the action.

But she never mentioned the regent in what she said, thinking that the little Zhou emperor would listen to the slander.In fact, even if she doesn't come to listen to the government, there will naturally be a regent in the court. After all the Queen Mother Zhong has said so much, in the end, she still doesn't believe the regent at all.What's more, she doubted the loyalty of the regent.
