Chapter 238
The Queen Mother sneered: "What does Aijia mean, doesn't the Emperor understand?"

Her old face couldn't hide the sullen look: "Aijia is old, but she is not too old to be dim-sighted. Concubine Li was framed for having an affair with a foreigner. The plan may have come from a noble person, but if there is no Queen Dowager With Concubine Hui leading the charge, how could she make such a big fuss with a tribute girl from a small country? The real mastermind of this matter is clearly Aunt and Nephew An, and Jia Gui is at most an accomplice, but the emperor pushed out a maidservant as a scapegoat. Who do you want to lie to?"

After hearing this, the emperor's expression sank.

Before the emperor could refute, the queen mother immediately said again: "Emperor, you don't have to defend your aunt and nephew An anymore, the Ai family has already found out about this matter, and it is the two of them who are behind the scenes, for the sake of a queen. , They are so frenzied, how can the Ai family tolerate this?"

The emperor hurriedly knelt down and said: "Queen mother, please calm down. It is true that the emperor dowager and concubine Hui did not behave properly this time, but this matter is a scandal of the royal family. There is a saying that a family scandal should not be publicized. Concubine Li has no plans to pursue it. Empress Wang can hold her hands high, and big things can be turned into small things."

The Empress Dowager's gaze was firm and she had no intention of backing down: "Concubine Li intends to turn a big matter into a small matter, because she doesn't want to embarrass the emperor, but Ai's family, as the Empress Dowager and a daughter of the Yu family, doesn't rub the sand in her eyes. Nothing can be done again, if the culprit is not severely punished this time, how can we frame Ai's niece in the future?"

The emperor was in pain and had a headache: "Mother, why doesn't the son want to be the master of the noble concubine Li? It's just that the empress dowager is the son's mother after all, and the son will never be able to repay the kindness of nurturing her conceived child in October."

The queen mother sneered and said, "The emperor still cares about his own mother, and doesn't care about other people's life or death. That's why even though she plotted against Ai's niece again and again, and ruined the Yu clan's reputation, you really are a dutiful emperor!"

The emperor gradually became dissatisfied when he heard it, but he still smiled submissively because of the majesty of the empress dowager and Emperor Xiaozong's edict: "The queen mother accused the son of being stupid and filial, and the son had nothing to say, but the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety. , stupid filial piety is always a hundred times better than unfilial piety, presumably the mother does not want her son to become an unfilial king who is pointed out by the world, right?"

The Empress Dowager said coldly: "It's not that the Ai family can't understand that the emperor should abide by filial piety. It's just that Concubine Li has been tricked this time. If they don't give an explanation, won't they plan to plot against Ai's niece even more brazenly in the future?"

The emperor's deep eyes flickered. He picked up the celadon teacup and slowly sipped the tea: "Concubine Li is the niece of the empress mother. With your blessing, who can count on her?"

The queen mother sighed deeply: "Ai's family is getting old, even if you want to protect her, how long can you protect her? If you don't give her a proper arrangement, when Ai's family is gone, won't she be bullied to death? "

There was a faint layer of vigilance on the emperor's young and handsome face: "Then what does the empress mean?"

The Empress Dowager said: "The harem is restless because there is no real mistress in the harem. The emperor is young and prosperous, so he cannot live without a queen. Furthermore, the former dynasty is closely related to the harem. Stable, so it's time to put the next thing on the agenda."
