The concubine of the high gate

Chapter 428

"Empress Dowager." Duan Mozhen saluted.

At this time, in the Empress Dowager's palace, except for the Empress Dowager Xia who was on the sick bed, only Aunt Jiang was left.

"Come here, come closer, let Ai's family take a look." Empress Dowager Xia stood up with some difficulty.

Duan Mozhen walked in slowly.The Empress Dowager Xia looked at Duan Mozhen with a dazed expression, and it took some time before the Empress Dowager came back to her senses.

"Forget it, the Ai family gave you the little pearl of the Ai family. I hope you can always treat her kindly." The Empress Dowager Xia sighed.

"Mingzhu is the wife of the minister, so naturally the minister should treat her kindly." Duan Mozhen said.

"The Ai family entered the palace at the age of 14. They have seen too much and experienced too much. The Ai family has acted and fought all their lives. In the end, both the Ai family's sons and daughters died in the hands of the first emperor. The Ai family There is only such a little flesh and blood left in this world, no matter what, Aijia can't let Mingzhu get hurt." Empress Dowager Xia sighed, "However, this only flesh and blood is still so weak."

"Then why did the Queen Mother set up this bureau?" Duan Mozhen asked directly.

"You really know." The Empress Dowager Xia sighed again, "The Ai family knew that they couldn't hide it from you. That's right, it was the Ai family who asked people to secretly hand over the evidence to Gu Yushi."

"The empress dowager is here to test the ministers?" Duan Mozhen said clearly, "But, why doesn't the empress leave a little retreat for herself?"

"You are too smart. In terms of calculations, no one in the entire court can compare to you. Mingzhu is the only blood of the Ai family. The Ai family is worried about handing her over to you. The child is not in good health, and his heart is not cruel enough to be able to do it." Chengsi, just sat in such a high position again. Aijia's body is getting worse day by day, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive next spring, when that time comes, what should I do with the pearl of Aijia?" At this time, the Empress Dowager Xia has no Calculating, just an old man worried about his granddaughter.

"Mingzhu is the wife of the minister, so the minister will naturally protect her." Duan Mozhen concealed his displeasure in his heart.

"The first emperor said the same thing back then. He said that in his heart, the Ai family was his queen. Then, he killed the two children of the Ai family. The father of the Ai family also said the same to the mother of the Ai family. After that, the mother Aijia died, and Aijia was cruelly sent into the palace. When Aijia’s mother was alive, she told Aijia that Aijia’s grandfather also said the same to Aijia’s grandmother. Then, Aijia’s mother was sent to do Concubine, Aijia's grandmother also left early. Men in this world love a woman's appearance very much. Once her color gets old, a woman will be lost forever. Mingzhu's child is even more beautiful than when Aijia was young. .If one day you change your mind, what will you do with that poor child of the Ai family?" The Empress Dowager Xia smiled wryly.

"Why does your empress think that the minister will change his mind?" Duan Mozhen frowned, he finally understood where Ye Mingzhu's extreme distrust of men came from.

"Men in this world are fickle. Aijia is not a fool. Mingzhu told Aijia that she likes you over and over again, but Aijia can understand. How can she like you? She It is clear that a man who has seen through the world would rather be a widow than give another man. The Ai family can see it, how can you not see it? You are too calculating, the Ai family is afraid that one day that silly boy will really Your heart was moved by your schemes. At that time, Mingzhu hurt her body and heart for you, but how can she live? A woman's heart is moved, and her eyes are fascinated. Therefore, the Ai family trusted the late emperor, and paid paid such a terrible price." The Empress Dowager Xia sighed.
