A Thousand Hills

Chapter 379

After confessing his last words to everyone, Emperor Zhaoming signaled everyone to go out and leave the queen alone, obviously he had something to say to the queen.There was no movement inside, everyone was waiting outside, the waiting time was so long, but no one made a sound.Until the sky turned white, there was still no movement inside.

This, this is something wrong.

Normally, this time should be the time for everyone in the palace to wake up in the morning.

Everyone was a little uneasy. Among the princes and vassal kings, the eldest prince Qin Wang was the leader. Qin Wang said to the crown prince, "Prince, should you go inside and have a look?"

The prince was also thinking about his parents, nodded and said, "Then I'll go in and have a look."

When the prince entered the room, he saw Empress Xie sitting beside Emperor Zhaoming's bed, leaning forward, as if she was talking with Emperor Zhaoming.The prince was relieved first, and called softly, "Mother?"

Empress Xie didn't speak, the prince called again, Empress Xie still didn't speak, the prince hurried forward, a strand of silvery white suddenly pierced the prince's eyes, it was Empress Xie who didn't know when a strand of white hair appeared on the sideburns, the prince suddenly Feeling sad, Empress Xie of course paid great attention to maintenance, but I don't know if it was because of Empress Xie's innate appearance, she has always looked very young, a person in her fifties looks like someone in her thirties, and her temple hair is even more like a crow's feathers.It turns out that there are really people who will grow old overnight!The prince hurriedly supported his aunt's shoulders, but felt that she was cold all over. Looking at his father on the dragon couch, his face was already pale and grey. The prince was greatly distressed, and cried, "Father, queen! Mother!"

The frightened faces of the outsiders changed, thinking that Empress Xie had gone with Emperor Zhaoming.

Outer princes, vassals, kings and cabinet ministers all rushed in. Seeing that Emperor Zhaoming was doing well, they all cried and howled.The crown prince was also in grief, his father had always treated him differently, he had just come of age, so he was appointed crown prince and the throne was passed on to him.Not to mention the aunt, if it wasn't for the aunt, it wouldn't be his turn to be the emperor.Seeing his father passing away today, his mother was in so much grief, and the prince also cried terribly.

Empress Xie has always been a person who seldom sheds tears. No one can deny Empress Xie's pain. If it were not for the extreme pain, Empress Xie's hair would not be gray. Everyone thought that Empress Xie would be young until the day she closed her eyes.Unexpectedly, as soon as Emperor Zhaoming left, Empress Xie's temples would have white hair.

However, considering how miserable the prince's vassal and the cabinet ministers were crying, Empress Xie didn't have a single tear. She remained calm and asked, "Where's the edict?"

Xue Xiang held it in his arms, Xue Lian hurriedly took out the will, held it up to the top of his head with both hands, and presented it to the empress.Empress Xie didn't answer, but told Xue Xiangdao, "The country can't be left without a master for a day, first issue a will, the crown prince will ascend the throne, and the emperor will be relieved."

Xiang Xue got up, and everyone knelt down with the crown prince. Xiang Xue read the edict. Then, Xiang Xue bent his knees and presented the edict to the new emperor.

After Mu Fan accepted the edict, three shouts of long live resounded through Fengyi Palace.

Mu Fan asked Empress Xie for instructions, "Mother, my son has no master, please guide me."

Empress Xie waved her hand, "I'm tired, you all go down."

Mu Fan took all the princes, vassals, and cabinet ministers down, and told the wisteria and cuckoo to serve Empress Xie well.

Mu Fan ordered his elder brother King Qin to attend the funeral together with the cabinet, and entrusted the affairs of the harem to the Crown Princess, and told the Crown Princess to serve the Empress well.Mu Fan's eyes were swollen, and he choked with tears, "The empress is very sad. I have never seen the empress so sad."

Mrs. Su quickly relieved her husband. Mrs. Su had obviously cried too, her eyes were red and swollen, and she said, "The Empress Mother and the Emperor Father are deeply in love with each other. It is human nature to be unable to let go of the relationship that has lasted for decades. The Empress Mother is the most concerned It is Your Majesty who is the one. Your Majesty has to stand up first. Right now, everyone in and out of the palace is looking at His Majesty. If His Majesty stands up, the Queen Mother can relax and recuperate, otherwise, the Queen Mother will worry even more."

Mu Fan nodded, and said again, "You should pay more attention to the queen mother."

Su Clan quickly and solemnly agreed again.

Mu Fan was the first to cry for his father, and he had to order the imperial guards to purge the nine gates, and the patrolling soldiers Ma Si and the imperial capital took strict precautions, so that no one would cause trouble when the emperor Daxing left.Furthermore, the princes and concubines from other places came to the imperial capital for funerals, and the princesses, masters, sons, concubines, and courtiers in the imperial capital were ordered to enter the palace to cry.Furthermore, when the Emperor Daxing passed away, Mu Fan had to go and tell the Empress Dowager, but Mu Fan was really worried that the Empress Dowager would not be able to bear it.

Soon, Mu Fan didn't have to worry about this, because when the Empress Dowager heard the bell ringing in the palace, her whole body froze, her eyes widened, she opened her mouth but couldn't speak, she burped and straightened her neck, The whole person fell down and never woke up again.When Mu Fan arrived with Xia Qingcheng, the Empress Dowager had already died.Princess Wenkang, Princess Yongfu, Princess Changtai, Princess Shouyang, Princess Shouwan, Princess Shouyi and Princess Zhao Xie are all guarding the Empress Dowager. When the queen mother left, everyone cried sadly.

Mu Fan's feelings for this great-grandmother are very ordinary, and there is a little complexity in the general. Without him, this great-grandmother used to embarrass Queen Xie a lot.Mu Fan grew up with Empress Xie since he was a child. The things that his great-grandmother did back then... Oh, forget it, everyone has gone.

Mu Fan thought about his father crying for his great-grandmother, and there was another funeral in the palace.

Moreover, the empress dowager has a high rank and status, so this funeral has to be handled even more.

Also, regarding the death of the Empress Dowager, Empress Xie, who is a grandson-in-law, has to go and inform Empress Xie for reasons of reason.This matter was done by Mu Fan himself.Empress Xie was sitting by the window. The sunshine in early March fell on Empress Xie's face as fine as jade, casting a faint golden light on Empress Xie Mo. Because the room was dim, from Mu Fan's perspective, It was because she couldn't see the expression on Empress Xie's face clearly.Empress Xie quietly listened to Mu Fan's news of the death of the Empress Dowager, and said calmly, "The Hu family is the concubine of the Emperor Taizu. Although she gave birth to Emperor Taizong, she is the biological mother, but not the aunt. It's inappropriate to be mourned."

Mu Fan was immediately dumbfounded when he heard what his aunt said. This, although the empress dowager failed to become a queen when Emperor Taizu was emperor, after Emperor Taizong took charge, he promoted his biological mother to empress dowager. After the first emperor ascended the throne, the empress dowager was promoted Empress Dowager, this, how can this not be mourned according to the Empress Dowager's routine?
Empress Xie's indiscriminate eyes fell on Mu Fan's face, and said to him, "You are young, so you don't know the reason for this. The birth mother of Emperor Taizu, Empress Cheng's Empress Shi Zu, looked at Hu Shi inappropriately back then. , came from a humble background, behaved vulgarly, and was unbearable to be a queen. Therefore, when the ancestor Empress Cheng was here, the Hu family had not been promoted. , I don’t know if it’s still effective?”

Mu Fan just wanted to kneel down to his aunt, and quickly said, "Of course it works."

Empress Xie ordered Wisteria to take out a sandalwood box, opened it, and took out a folded multicolored brocade with a bright yellow background. Empress Xie unfolded the brocade and handed it to Mu Fan. Mu Fan took it with both hands. Word: After my death, the Hu family will not be registered as the queen mother.The deposit at the bottom is a word of Cheng.

Mu Fan was shocked, and couldn't help saying, "Mother, the Emperor Shizu left this edict, so how can Emperor Taizong return..." And appointed his biological mother as the Queen Mother?

Empress Xie looked at Mu Fan and said word by word, "Because Emperor Taizong betrayed the will of Empress Shizu back then!"

The expression on Mu Fan's face can no longer be described in terms of shock. This, Emperor Taizong is his grandfather. His grandfather betrayed the will of the ancestors and queens. Such a reputation... Mu Fan discussed with his aunt, "Mother, after all, Emperor Taizong passed away many years ago. , Emperor Taizong is also the father of Emperor Father, so it's better not to mention Emperor Taizong, right?"

Empress Xie said, "It doesn't matter whether the Emperor Taizong mentions it or not. The late emperor also knew about the Shizu Empress's last decree. It was just for Emperor Taizong's face, so he didn't mention it. The Hu family has enjoyed the honor of the Mercy Palace for many years. What did you say? However, the Empress Shizu has a decree for the funeral of the Hu family. If you and I ignore the decree of the Empress Shizu today, in another year, your mother and son will not be a hundred years later. Ignore the ancestors, this precedent must never be set!"

Mu Fan grew up with Empress Xie, and he knew the importance, so he said seriously, "I understand."

Empress Xie took a breath and said, "I'm busy right now, the emperor also pays attention to his health." Then let Mu Fan go to work.

Mu Fan had the will of the Empress Shizu in mind, so he didn't bother to cry for his father, so he called the cabinet to discuss matters first.When the cabinet saw this will, they were all dumbfounded!Even Xie Bai, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, the uncle of Empress Xie's direct relative, was shocked and speechless.

The imperial decree of the ancestors and empresses probably did not come from Mu Fan, but when I asked the new king, it was as expected that Empress Xie took it out.

Everyone couldn't help but look at Xie Bai more, Xie Bai has recovered the state of watching his eyes, nose, nose and heart, and said in his heart, what's the use of seeing me, this will was written by the ancestor Empress Cheng.It was still Xue Xiangdao, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. Since it is the will of the Empress Shizu, the matter of the will is no small matter. There is still a handwritten letter written by the Empress Shizu in the palace. The ministers must first check whether the will of the Empress Shizu is true or not."

This is the stability of the cabinet. Even if it was brought out by Empress Xie, if you say it is the decree of the Empress Shizu, we have to check whether it is true or not.Xue Xiang had this proposal, but Mu Fan had no objection.

Everyone immediately went to look for the sealed handwriting of the Empress Shizu, and then, there was no need for others, several of them were educated people, after careful inspection, everyone really convinced Empress Xie, this handwriting was actually real!

This is how to do?
It's not for the Hu family, but mainly for the reputation of Emperor Taizong!As for the people in the cabinet, they all worked under the Emperor Taizong. What's more, the new emperor has just ascended the throne, so it's not easy to make things too big, not to mention, it has a bearing on the royal family's face.

To say that Xue Pingxiang is really a loyal and loyal minister, otherwise, if there is someone with bad intentions who deliberately makes things big and loses the royal family's face, even the new king's reputation may be affected to some extent.

Fortunately, Mu Fan said, "Empress Mother also said that Emperor Taizong passed away many years ago, and Emperor Taizong was the most sage, virtuous and filial father. The past will not be pursued any more, but the will of the Empress Shizu cannot be ignored."

Everyone in the cabinet understands that Empress Xie absolutely cannot agree to allow Empress Dowager Hu to take care of her funeral affairs with the honor of Empress Dowager Hu.

In fact, as long as Empress Xie does not pursue the matter of Emperor Taizong's reneging on the will of the Empress Shizu, everyone will be thankful.This at least shows that Empress Xie didn't make a fuss about the matter.

Although they subjectively did not intend to make Empress Dowager Hu ugly behind her back, Empress Xie was too lethal, she directly took out the will of Empress Shizu, and everyone had to follow the order.Everyone has to discuss, since the Empress Shizu has a decree not to allow the Hu family to be the queen mother, then, now, the Hu family will not be able to enjoy the honor of the empress dowager.

The first thing to face is that the Hu family cannot hold funerals in the Mercy Palace.The Ci'en Palace has always been the residence of the Empress Dowager or the Empress Dowager, and concubines and concubines are not allowed to steal their residence.Then, the funeral ceremonies of the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager are of different specifications.This cannot be done with the example of the Empress Dowager, what kind of example should be used, this is another troublesome matter.

If you want to put it aside, the Ministry of Rites has to think deeply about matters related to etiquette, and it can only be determined after careful consideration of all aspects, but now that Mrs. Hu is dead, and then there is the matter of mourning, waiting for your Ministry of Rites to get the regulations now.Fortunately, Wei Shangshu, who is now the minister of the Ministry of Rites, has been engaged in learning all his life. This old man has spent most of his life in the Imperial Academy, so he is very good at etiquette.

Although Empress Xie made it clear that the chariots and horses were going to embarrass Mrs. Hu, she was the birth mother of Emperor Taizong after all. It was clearly remembered on the royal jade plate that even the late emperors had to recognize Mrs. Hu as her grandmother, and even more so today. For great-grandmother.Even though you can't live with the honor of the empress dowager, everyone should show some sympathy, and it is always possible to give Hu the status of the empress dowager.After all, Hu's seniority is also the face of the royal family, so it's really not good to embarrass her too much.

Everyone discussed it for a while, because the matter of the first emperor's crying spirit was about to happen, and there was no delay. After discussing this matter, Mu Fan took the cabinet to Fengyi Palace to ask the Queen for instructions.Thank you Queen, there is an advantage, you say that she will repay every wrongdoing, but in fact, she does everything for righteousness.The reasons and evidence she presented are absolutely irrefutable for you.Moreover, Empress Xie is not the kind of person who hates you and will tear you to pieces. In fact, Empress Xie was very kind to the Hu family when the late emperor was around. Everyone can thank Empress Xie forgot what the Hu family did to her earlier.

Since Hu's funeral has set the rules for the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager, then, Empress Xie said, "The afterlife of the Empress Dowager and the Dowager Dowager cannot be handled in the Palace of Mercy. This is against the rules."

Mu Fan asked for instructions in which palace to stop the concubine Hu Taihuang, and Empress Xie said indifferently, "I heard that the Hu family used to live in the Tianci Palace. The palace is now empty. There is no concubine to live in these years, so it is in the Tianci Palace, and it can be regarded as having a beginning and an end."

Everyone received the oral order from Empress Xie and went.

After the matter of the Hu family is settled, Mu Fan and the cabinet have another difficulty. Princess Wenkang is still in the Palace of Mercy, so what should I say about letting the Hu family move the palace?Princess Wenkang's temper is also well-known in the imperial capital.Mu Fan had just succeeded to the throne, so he didn't want to have conflicts with the elders of the clan.

It was only Mu Fan's first day as emperor, so he was very worried.

Xue Xiangdao, "Since this matter is the last decree of the Empress Shizu, Your Majesty and I can only obey the decree. If not, show this decree to the Eldest Princess. If the Eldest Princess is puzzled, I can answer it for you." .”

Mu Fan sighed, "That's the only way to go."

Princess Wenkang is still crying for her mother in the Palace of Mercy. Although this mother is confused and often worrying, her mother is her mother. No matter how confused her mother is, it is the best for her.Princess Wenkang was crying sadly. Seeing Mu Fan come to persuade her, Princess Wenkang was rather ironic. Feeling that Mu Fan was benevolent, she cried, "The Empress Dowager has me here, Your Majesty still needs to take care of the dragon body."

Princess Wenkang is so sensible, Mu Fan finds it hard to speak.

Mu Fan sighed and said, "Auntie, I have something to talk to my aunt about."

Princess Wenkang asked, "What's the matter?"

Mu Fan simply ordered people to invite all the princes and vassals to the Mercy Palace, including the Eldest Princess and the Eldest Princess. Mu Fan ordered Xue Xiang to take out the will of the Empress Shizu. When the Eldest Princess Wenkang saw the Empress Shizu His will was that his eyes went dark, but thanks to Princess Changtai who helped her mother-in-law and aunt in time, Princess Wenkang did not fall down.Everyone came from the royal family, and their IQs were normal, so they naturally knew what this will meant.

Princess Wenkang's eyes were frosty, and she asked first, "Has the cabinet verified the authenticity of the will?"

Xue Xiang bowed and said, "I have checked the manuscripts of the ancestors and empresses who were sealed in the palace before. The handwriting is all written by the ancestors and empresses, and the seal is undoubtedly the seal of the phoenix."

Princess Wenkang's hand holding the will of the Empress Shizu was trembling slightly, she gritted her teeth and asked, "I don't know where the Queen got the will of the Empress Shizu?"

Mu Fanxue couldn't even answer, and no one dared to ask Queen Xie.

Princess Wenkang got up and said, "I don't need to embarrass Your Majesty, I just ask myself."

Princess Wenkang went directly to Fengyi Palace.

In Fengyi Palace, Empress Xie was still sitting in front of the window, watching the sycamore trees outside the window quietly. The March breeze was warm, and the leaves of the sycamore trees were rustling in the wind.Two cages of larks hanging on the vermilion veranda under the tree are singing happily, accompanied by the sound of the wind and trees, it is a natural movement.

From the window, Empress Xie saw Princess Wenkang approaching hurriedly with an angry expression on her face. Princess Wenkang was also old, with gray hair, and a face full of fine lines no matter how well she maintained her face, haggard, tired, Angry, all kinds of intertwined expressions faced Xie Moru who was sitting quietly in the upper window, Princess Wenkang couldn't help stopping her hurried steps, her aging eyes looked at Xie Moru, and Xie Moru also looked at her, a strand of hair on her temples The silvery white is dazzling in the sun.

Princess Wenkang suddenly slowed down her pace. She slowed down, and her whole body returned to her previous calm and dignity. She didn't go in, but just went out of Xie Moru's window, separated from Xie Moru by a window, Princess Wenkang said, "I don't know when your Majesty will get the last decree of this ancestor and empress?"

"Very early, when the Empress Dowager was still alive."

"I don't understand, why didn't your mother show it at that time?" Princess Wenkang was well aware of the rift between her mother and Xie Moru. In the past, Princess Wenkang thought that Xie Moru was generous and had put aside the matter.Today Xie Moru took out this will immediately after the mother's death, which shows that she has not forgotten her mother's harsh treatment to her back then.

"Emperor Taizong is a filial person, and the first emperor is also a filial person. Naturally, I am not for Emperor Taizong, nor for Princess Dachang. What kindness do you two have for me? I am for the first emperor, and I don't want to It’s all about embarrassing the late emperor. The late emperor is a soft-hearted person.” Xie Moru looked at the sky outside Fengyi Palace, “It was the late emperor who brought me to the position of Fengyi Palace. As the late emperor, I am willing to make some concessions. But that’s all there is to it.”

Princess Wenkang's eyes were red and swollen, and she said in a low voice, "Do you still remember the matter of consecrating the saint?"

Xie Moru had a flat appearance and a flat tone, "I told people a long time ago that Princess Fusheng seeks benevolence and benevolence, and I have nothing to hold grudges about. It's just that the Hu family and the Hu Taihuang Guitai concubine single-handedly pushed me to get married. What caused my mother to commit suicide, I will never forget this matter in this life!"

Princess Wenkang's complexion changed suddenly, Xie Moru looked at her with a gentle look in her eyes, and said, "I know, this matter has nothing to do with the eldest princess."

Princess Wenkang smiled wryly, "What my mother did has nothing to do with me?"

"If I hold grudges against you, I won't get close to you these years." Xie Moru said slowly, "If the eldest princess feels the pain of the death of the empress dowager Hu, the empress dowager Hu is nearly ninety years old. Old, prosperous and wealthy for most of her life, the Eldest Princess has been in grief to this point. At that time, my mother was only in her thirties, and I never saw her happy in my life. She committed suicide for me. My pain back then was a hundred times greater than that of the Eldest Princess! "

The blood on Princess Wenkang's face seemed to be taken away by the sentence "My pain in the past was a hundred times better than that of the princess". .

The whole court was shocked by the matter of the Hu family.

Duke Hu Chengen asked Princess Wenkang, but Princess Wenkang didn't see them.

As for Li Xuan, Marquis of Yong'an and General of the Imperial Guard, he is too busy with the safety of the palace and the city. He is on duty in the palace day and night, and he doesn't even have time to go home.

Even the old Marquis Yong'an, who has become an official, has to go to the palace every day to mourn his soul. In the entire Li family, if there is a little free time, it is Li Qiong, the third son of Princess Wenkang.But Li Qiong, he is no more than the fifth rank, so he can't control these things.If Li Qiong could take care of it, and the Hu family was his grandmother, how could he be willing to see the Hu family lose the honor of the empress dowager!
Old Yong'an Hou learned about this, and he was fair to Cheng En, "Let me tell you something, you can handle it yourself?"

Cheng Engong was so anxious that his mouth was full of sores. Seeing old Yong'an Hou Ken pointing out one or two things, like a man at the end of the road seeing a straw, he said repeatedly, "Uncle, just give orders?" The Hu family of Cheng Engong's mansion is the mother family of Emperor Taizong Naturally, it is also the mother clan of Princess Wenkang, and now Cheng Engong is of a lower seniority, so he should be called Princess Wenkang as a cousin, so it is not bad to call the old Marquis Yong'an uncle.

The old Marquis Yong'an sighed, "Since the decree of the ancestors and empresses, the noble concubine Hu has moved out of the Ci'en Palace and went to the Tianci Palace to rest. Cheng Engong, he is the noble of the foreign relatives!" You panicked , Do you still want to keep the title?It's just that the newly enthroned wants to show kindness, but the Hu family has lost the honor of Duke Chengen. Empress Xie insists on the Hu family's matter, and it is the right thing to seize the title.It's just that Empress Xie didn't mention this matter, the Hu family has been reduced to the imperial concubine, why did your Hu family get this duke?The censor has to quit first!What's more, since Emperor Taizong passed away, the Hu family has fallen out of the ranks of first-class dignitaries.Fortunately, the late emperor was benevolent and didn't do anything to the Hu family.Today, alas, today I am still young. I didn't know about Empress Xie's method at the time, but after the incident with Empress Hu and Guitai Concubine, I should know, right?Still want to protect the title, stop dreaming!Only when the Hu family wrote a letter to resign from the title, did they understand!
When Cheng Engong heard this, his face turned pale, and he almost collapsed on the ground.

Old Yong'an Hou sighed, but didn't speak.

Under the cover of the nest, there is no complete egg.

If there is no decree from the Dao Shizu Empress, everything is fine, after all, the Hu family is the mother's family of the Empress Dowager, and the position of the duke, as long as Cheng Engong is here, as long as there are no problems, it is reasonable to continue to die should.But as soon as the imperial decree came out, the original empress dowager was directly demoted to the empress dowager, and the title of empress dowager was not kept. Why should your Hu family still enjoy the highest title of relatives—the Duke of Chengen Woolen cloth?

Even though Cheng Engong was paralyzed, he knew in his heart that what old Marquis Yong'an said...is...right...

Hey……

But, how to be willing?

The old Marquis of Nan'an also went back to the court for the funeral, this time it was Cheng Engong's father, and the old Cheng'en Gong went to find his younger brother, the old Marquis of Nan'an said, "If there is another way, brother can just order it."

If old Cheng Engong had a plan, he wouldn't come to his brother for advice.

The old Marquis of Nan'an sighed secretly: One courtier and one emperor!The first emperor was benevolent, and when the first emperor was around, he always talked about affection.Now that the late emperor is gone, Empress Xie will avenge her injustice and revenge!

The matter of the Hu family was settled in this way.

The two most powerful relatives of the Hu family in the Duke Cheng'en Mansion, one is the Princess Wenkang, and the other is the Marquis of Nan'an Mansion, neither of them can do it.Cheng Engong had no choice but to ask for resignation.

Mu Fan agreed.

As a result, the Hu family has not yet been mourned, and the Hu family has fallen from a first-class government to an ordinary official's family!

Even, it is not as good as an ordinary official's family.

Among the ordinary families of officials and eunuchs, which one can make enemies with Queen Xie?The Hu family can do it!

It's over, even if the Hu family is still there, everyone in the elite circle knows that the Hu family is gone!

Moreover, the Hu family is neither a posthumous honor, so naturally he is not qualified to be buried in the Taizu emperor's mausoleum.

Princess Wenkang very much hoped that her mother would be buried with the Emperor Taizu as the concubine of the Emperor Taizu. Princess Changtai and Princess Yongfu went to plead with Queen Xie in person. The eldest princess is also clear. Emperor Taizu knew about it, so how could he not know about it? Empress Shizu, that is the biological mother of Emperor Taizu, who made great contributions to the founding of Dongmu, and the will left by her , was ignored by Emperor Taizong. Due to the face of the royal family, this matter naturally cannot be known to the world, but you and I, as descendants of the royal family, how can you not know or understand? I don’t know if Emperor Taizu Quanxia knew about this What kind of mood is it. But as a son, you don’t want someone to take your own mother’s will. Is the imperial concubine rising? Such a calamity, should she be buried with the Taizu emperor? Is the Taizu emperor willing?"

The eldest princess Yongfu has the deepest bond with Empress Dowager Hu. Hearing that Xie Moru called the empress dowager a disaster, she was extremely displeased. It was not easy to show it on the face, but the words were not pleasing to the ears. "The emperor's grandmother is also the elder of the empress, so she should be filial to the elder's wish. The empress has always been lenient, so why can't she make it through this matter? Let people know, wouldn't it be said that the empress is narrow-minded .”

As soon as Princess Yongfu said this, Princess Changtai knew that something bad was going to happen. Before Princess Changtai made things right, Empress Xie said, "I'm not narrow-minded anymore? If I'm not narrow-minded, how can I How about raising Jinshang? Or, I like that Jinshang’s mother clan has no one, so it’s easy to decide, huh? Isn’t it?”

Empress Xie's eyes were cold and stern, and the cold sweat on Princess Yongfu's forehead immediately came down. These words, yes, she said in private!Moreover, she told more than one person in private.But, how would Empress Xie know?

Empress Xie said coldly, "I'm neither deaf nor blind, and I can hear and see. For the sake of the eldest princess, let's save some face between me and the eldest princess!"

Princess Yongfu blushed immediately with embarrassment. If it was the same year, she would have turned against Xie Moru.However, she is still the princess from the imperial family back then, but Xie Moru is no longer the little girl with embarrassing background and no one to rely on.
