Chen Palace

Chapter 67
The Empress Dowager was slightly startled when she heard the words, and her beautiful eyes, like autumn water, shone with awe--

"Is that the child...?"

She pondered, thinking of the calm and generous young girl under the steps that day, with a plain face in court clothes, courteous and courteous, but with eyes as clear as the sea.

Before she knew it, her angina began to strike again... The queen mother was a little dizzy, looking at the cheers of the crowds below the city, something vaguely appeared in her heart——

"How did she charm the emperor?!"

She asked, her voice was calm, but slightly tired.

The queen bit her lips, but she couldn't explain why, so she could only say bitterly: "A daughter's family, who dances knives and sticks all day long, the emperor must have instigated such reckless behavior!"

"Oh? According to what you said, Imakami turned out to be an incompetent puppet who was bewitched by a woman?"

The Empress Dowager sneered softly, upon hearing this, the Empress knew that the meaning of the words was not good, so she quickly restrained her face and kept silent.

The Empress Dowager looked at the marching team from a distance, and saw the bright yellow chariot and the emperor riding on the horse, very heroic, half a foot behind, seemed to be followed by a slender figure, but under the shaking of the crowd, it was hard to see clearly.

She was even more disturbed, but she pulled herself together and glanced at the queen until cold sweat broke out on her back, then said slowly: "What you said just now not only violated jealousy, but also damaged the face of the middle palace. , which is also a great disadvantage—you are not a three-year-old child anymore, so you still need me to train you?!”

Her voice was soft, and she didn't speak harshly, but every word was like a giant drum beating on the Queen's heart.

The queen lowered her eyes, listened quietly to the instructions, gritted her teeth in her heart, but there was no need to say anything.

"The emperor's personal conquest, the government affairs are temporarily taken over by a few cabinet ministers - but they are outsiders after all, this beautiful country, the government affairs are complicated, my old woman, I can't say, I have to take care of him for a few days."

When the queen heard it, her heart became clear. What the queen mother said meant that she was going to take all the power of the government in her hands!

She thought quickly in her heart... the emperor's personal expedition, the desert grassland, snow peaks and torrents, but there are infinite dangers and powerful enemies around, if there is an accident...

She seemed to be startled by this dark and bloody thought, but she couldn't control her heart anymore, and began to fantasize——

If this is the case... then the unformed fetus will be of great use...

But with the queen mother here, the beaded curtain on the Jade Seat is still her majesty, so how could it be my turn?
Her thoughts became more and more gloomy, and she peeped at the Queen Mother, but saw that she didn't seem to notice, stroked the court clothes on her body, and continued: "Only so, if you are in charge of the harem, you must be diligent, thrifty, cautious, like just now." Such words are simply insulting to the imperial edict—the emperor is away on an expedition, you have to take good care of this family for him, so that he can feel at ease!"

The queen listened to her eloquence, and she actually defended Yuan Qi quite a bit between the words. She was shocked in her heart. She looked at her aunt, but couldn't find the words for a while.

"I know...the emperor treats you coldly and ruthlessly, but this time is no small matter. If you are not careful, the barbarians will invade. You must take the overall situation into consideration!"

The queen mother seemed to see through her mind, and said lightly.

She frowned slightly, apparently recalling her youth.

When Jing Lezhi changed, she was only 12 years old, but she had already moved the capital. Those rough and dirty barbarians in fur robes rushed into Lin's house yelling and wanted to sacrifice her to the Tatar prince.

The horror and panic at that time will never be forgotten in her life!

Until she came to power in the court, she still had lingering fears, and she was generous to the Tatars, but these barbarians who were ashamed and blood-drinking, made an inch of it, and now they are going to invade the northwest half of the wall!
She thought of the emperor's sincere and earnest request before leaving, and sighed inwardly: This time, the overall situation must really be the top priority... If you really want to make the nest full of eggs, what kind of honor and glory, the mother's appearance is like a dream come true!
She still had lingering fears when she thought of hiding when she was young, and she thought to herself: Those savages are really too rude... Fortunately, there is "her" instead...

When the queen mother thought of "her", her face instantly turned pale, as if she had glimpsed a ghost in the blue sky, and her lips were bleeding.

The queen was waiting for her to elaborate, but she saw that the queen turned around suddenly, ignored the astonishment of the large group of servants, turned around and left——

"Drive back to the palace!"

Her voice was so sharp that the queen was frightened and staggered.

****
After leaving Yumen, the originally prosperous trees and houses on the side of the road gradually become rare, and the boundless grassland is ahead, lush and green, reflecting the blue sky in the distance, I feel relaxed and happy, far and wide.

The soldiers in the army were exposed to the scorching sun, but they didn't feel it at first. After three days, they were already sweating profusely, and the heat was unbearable. Only the emperor sat on his horse with a calm expression.

The [-] soldiers of the Beijing camp did not often get a glimpse of the holy face, they were very reserved and respectful, but among the [-] imperial guards, there were guards who had been dispatched before, and they were very familiar with the emperor, one of them was Guo Sheng, Nicknamed Peanut, he is extremely witty and elf. Relying on a bit of holy family, he approached Yuan Qi and joked: "Long live is the emperor of the real dragon. He is blessed by the gods all over the sky, but he is cool all over!"

Yuan Qisu knew that he was poor-mouthed, but his temperament was extremely loyal, and he didn't think he was disobedient when he heard the words. He just smiled slightly, opened his cloak slightly, and exposed the leather armor under it.

"Peanut" looked at this exquisite armor and was praising it. When he caught a glimpse of the fine and well-organized pores, he let out a "huh" and was very surprised.

"What are you making such a fuss about?"

The emperor laughed and scolded, but "Peanut" looked at it carefully again, and then said solemnly: "Look at this stitch arrangement, it was actually made by an old man in the army. It has not been infiltrated for many years, and the position must not be so appropriate!"

He rubbed it reluctantly again, and said more firmly: "Look at this style, it was popular among the veterans of Long Yulu back then. My father had one, and I was never allowed to touch it."

When Yuan Qi heard what he said, he thought he was talking nonsense, but when he saw his respectful and solemn face, he suppressed his smile and said slightly surprised: "This is from the hands of the inner prisoner, and it was set by Shangyi— —”

Before he finished speaking, he could only hear a slight commotion in front of him. Someone in Er'er exclaimed: "There are barbarians ambushing here!"

Before the shouts were finished, a lot of men in furs, with high noses and deep eyes, yellow and black complexion, all dressed as Tatars, rushed down the slope in front of them, rushing up all over the mountains and plains.

There was a sudden chaos in the army-these imperial troops were welcoming the generals in Beijing. Although they were well-equipped and not skilled in martial arts, they only guarded the capital and never fought with real swords and guns. It is impossible to respond.

At this time, although the avenue was wide, it was also blocked by people and horses. Some people hurriedly took up weapons, some hurriedly rode their horses, but accidentally startled their companions' mounts. A crowd of people shouted and neighed, and the scene was extremely chaotic.

There was a continuous sound of "咻咻" in the air, and the black feather arrows were shining coldly, flying towards the brigade densely.

Yuan Qi jumped off the horse and blocked it with a shield in time, but there was only one thought in his mind——

"This is a trap?!"
