Chapter 899 It Really Came For Yan Wen

The queen mother felt that the emperor didn't let her into the imperial study, it was to guard against her and not treat her as his own mother.

"His Royal Highness is here!" A eunuch announced from outside.

His Highness the Tenth Highness walked in quickly, with a dignified face and anxiety in his pretty eyes. After all, he was a child, and his ability to restrain his emotions was not strong enough.

"Mother! My son heard that..."

The Empress Dowager put her index finger on her bright red lips, signaling the Tenth Prince not to talk nonsense.

This is the Emperor's Hall of Supreme Harmony, not her Palace of Compassion and Peace.

His Highness's eyes turned, and the next words became: "I heard that you are here, so I came here to greet you! It's been a long time since I have had a good talk with the mother, but the mother is blaming her son?"

Recently, the emperor has assigned him a heavy coursework, and he has almost no chance to enter the harem to talk to the queen mother, and he has to leave every time after asking for peace.

The queen mother showed a kind and gratifying smile, took the hand of His Highness the Tenth Highness, patted it, and said: "You are motivated, why does the queen mother blame you? Learn your skills, don't worry about Aijia!"

Saying that, she winked at His Highness the Tenth Highness, reassuring him that she will take care of today's matter.

His Highness Tenth took a long breath of relief, but his expression was still a little worried.Did he know that the relationship between the emperor and the queen mother was very stiff, and he might not pay attention to the queen mother's opinion, but would have a big fight with the queen mother instead.

Laixi reminded in a low voice: "Your Highness, it's time for you to learn arithmetic."

If the emperor sees His Highness the Tenth Prince making out with the Empress Dowager, he will definitely be angry, and maybe he will have to give the Tenth Highness extra homework.

The tenth prince glared at Laixi, pouted, and looked at the queen mother with great resentment, "Queen mother, I want to accompany you more, but the missionary from the west who teaches arithmetic has a strong sense of time, and will punish you if you are late. Minister."

The Queen Mother patted his little shoulder, and said lovingly: "Go, learn more skills from that red-haired devil. I heard that their skills are very useful. The officials of the Ministry of Industry will learn from you."

"The minister there will leave!" His Highness the Tenth Highness saluted the Queen Mother, and then led the people away.

The Empress Dowager looked at His Majesty the Tenth Highness, who had an extraordinary appearance at a young age, with love and pity in her eyes.

So what if His Royal Highness learns more skills?In the future, he is destined to be an idle prince, otherwise he will be suspected, suppressed, or even killed by the emperor.

The only thing he wants to do for Dongming is to marry a woman who can help Dongming society when he is old.

This is the obligation of the princes and grandchildren. As long as you are supported by the royal family, then you have to pay for the royal family. Marriage is just one of them.

Such a smart kid, what a pity!

The Empress Dowager was feeling sorry for the Tenth Highness, when a eunuch passed on, "The Emperor is here!"

When the queen mother heard this, she quickly suppressed her emotions and put on a kind and virtuous smile.

The emperor, dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, came at the pace of a dragon and a tiger, and first saluted the queen mother, "Greetings to the queen mother."

The Empress Dowager smiled and gave her a hand, "Your Majesty, please forgive me."

The emperor straightened up, sat on the dragon chair, looked at the queen mother indifferently, and asked: "The queen mother disregarded the rules and came to the previous court to look for me, but there is something important?"

It has been repeatedly ordered that women in the harem are not allowed to come to the court without summons, let alone approach the imperial study.However, the queen mother came to the imperial study to look for him repeatedly.

The empress dowager's eyes darkened slightly. Is this to blame her for not obeying the rules?
There was a loving mother's smile on her face, and said: "The emperor has a lot of things to do every day, and he always has no time to go to the harem to pay his respects to Ai's family. If there is something to do with Ai's family, he can only come to see the emperor in person."

This means that the emperor is not filial, even neglecting to greet her mother.

The emperor pretended not to be able to hear it, and asked, "What can the empress do to find me?"

The Empress Dowager looked at the mother-in-law behind her, and said, "The late emperor's filial piety period has passed, and it's time to start filling the harem. The Ai family knows that the emperor is filial, and wants to keep filial piety for the late emperor for a few more months, and is not willing to draft a lot. The Ai family first selected a few of the noble daughters in Beijing."

Nanny held a lot of scrolls in her hands, stepped forward, and handed them to Duofu.

Duofu glanced at the emperor, seeing that the emperor didn't say anything, he reached out and took the scroll.

The emperor smiled and said: "I have troubled the empress to worry about it. I have no intention of doing this now. When I want to choose a concubine, I will take a good look at it."

The Empress Dowager's face sank, and she smiled again, and said, "Your Majesty, you must hurry up. The Ai family asked Yan Wen to investigate the details. His temper and character are reliable. Speaking of which, Yan Wen is very proper in his work."

The emperor's eyes were slightly cold, and it really came for Yan Wen.

"Yan Wen was single-handedly picked up by the queen mother. It is right to do something for the mother. I don't know if he sent Jin Yiwei to kill King Xuan. Is it the queen mother's intention?"

The Queen Mother looked surprised, "What did you say? There is such a thing? Yan Wen will never do this, it must be framed by King Xuan!"

The emperor chuckled, "King Xuan didn't say anything, he just sent people back, and the people who came back alive confessed."

The queen mother denied it, "This matter has nothing to do with the Ai family, and it has nothing to do with Yan Wen. The emperor should not listen to other people's instigation and separate from the Ai family. The Ai family suggested to the emperor to promote Yan Wen, and also wanted to choose a companion for Xiao Shi Just read."

Accompanying the prince is not just for the children of any family. The family's official position must reach a certain level, and the children in the family are eligible to accompany the prince and princess.

The emperor had just interrogated Yan Wen, and Yan Wen insisted that he had nothing to do with him, let alone betraying the Queen Mother.

Both the emperor and the empress dowager are powerful people, and the most taboo is the swaying wall. He has already chosen the empress dowager, so he can't turn his back halfway, or he will be miserable.

If he is bitten to death, the emperor will punish him. The queen mother will definitely try her best to protect his family, otherwise who will do things for her in the future?
If he betrayed the Queen Mother, he would still not be able to survive. The son next to the Tenth Prince would bear the brunt first, followed by his own family.

Therefore, no matter what the Jin Yiwei who came back alive testified, Yan Wen insisted that it had nothing to do with him, nor the Queen Mother.

When the emperor heard the queen mother say the same, he couldn't help hehe, "It has nothing to do with him? Those ten people are all his subordinates. They disappeared for more than [-] days, but went to assassinate King Xuan. He didn't know anything, so it has nothing to do with him?"

The queen mother frowned and said: "That is also a crime of laxity and dereliction of duty. The bosses of those people are not only Yan Wen, but under Yan Wen there are Wuchang, Shichang, and Gu Lingran above!"

The emperor sneered, "Then I will first punish him for the crime of lax control and dereliction of duty, cut off all his posts, and let him be punished."

"Your Majesty!" The Queen Mother's voice became stern, "If you do this, won't Yan Wen's son be able to be Xiao Shi's companion? It's not easy for him to have such a temper-friendly companion!"

The emperor smiled lightly and said: "That's easy to say, I have allowed Yan Wen's son to be the companion of the old ten. Is there any dissatisfaction with the queen mother?"

The Empress Dowager said in a deep voice, "It's too heavy to strip him of all his duties!"
