A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Since the death of Zhao Zhen, Empress Dowager Cao has lived in the deep palace and rarely left her house.

In the small room at the back, she was sitting on her knees on a futon, her face expressionless.

The statue is speechless, and spread out on the ground is a Taoist classic.

Silence!

"Empress..."

"Um!"

Queen Mother Cao slowly opened her eyes.

The female official Zhao Shangshu stood outside the door and whispered: "There is news."

Empress Dowager Cao lives here in seclusion, and no major event will disturb her.

"There was a rebellion that ambushed the Shen An brothers and sisters last night..."

Uh-huh!

Zhao Shangshu only felt that his eyes were dazzled. Empress Dowager Cao had already completed the two actions of standing up and turning around.

There was a cold look in her eyes, and she asked: "What's wrong?"

Zhao Shangshu said: "The rebellious leader..."

"Smell fifty-two!"

Queen Mother Cao learned about this person from Zhao Zhen before.

"Yes, it seems that this is the person." Zhao Shangshu lowered his head and said: "Shen An's sister took action and used something to ignite Wen fifty-two..."

"good!"

Empress Dowager Cao said happily: "Who said women are inferior to men? Wen Fifty-two has been in control for many years, and no one can control it, but he was killed by a girl..."

"I don't know whether he is alive or dead." Zhao Shangshu said awkwardly: "I don't know whether Wen Fifty-two is alive or dead. Shen An chased his men all night and finally killed them all... Uncle Guo also went."

"He wouldn't be a friend enough if he didn't go."

Queen Mother Cao asked: "How is Guoguo?"

"It's said that there are some injuries on the body!" Zhao Shangshu remembered the Guoguo he had seen, and couldn't help but said angrily: "That man was so shameless, he actually attacked a girl."

"Most people are shameless!" Queen Mother Cao looked at her and said coldly: "Go tell the officials that I want to leave the palace."

Well!

The Queen Mother cannot leave the palace!

Although there is no explicit regulation, it is difficult for the empress dowager to leave the palace as a widow, which is too uncomfortable.

In an era when men were superior to women, after the emperor passed away, his women should stay with him.

But Queen Mother Cao looked at her coldly and shouted: "Diao Nu! Get out!"

Well!

Several of the maids outside were a little stunned.

This Zhao Shangshu is a close person of the Queen Mother and has always been treated with courtesy. What happened today?

Ren Shouzhong felt a little strange, but it was a common mentality among the people in the palace to die from the Taoist friends but not from the poor Taoists. He stood outside with a loyal look on his face.

Zhao Shangshu withdrew with a pale face. Someone caught a glimpse of her and whispered after she left: "She cried."

"shut up!"

Ren Shouzhong drank these people, then went in and asked, "Is there anything wrong with you?"

Empress Dowager Cao stood with her hands behind her back, tall and straight. She glanced at Ren Shouzhong and said coldly: "Get out!"

Ren Shouzhong was displeased and went out to stand. Later, someone came rushing towards him, and he sneered and said, "Ask him about his crime for disturbing the empress!"

This was a good opportunity to blackmail and vent their anger. The two chamberlains walked over with ferocious smiles and shouted: "Why are you running away? I'm not afraid of disturbing the queen..."

Zhao Shu's emotions towards his adoptive mother were generally complicated. On the one hand, he felt that she had not been treated well by her in the palace, but on the other hand, Empress Dowager Cao did not make things difficult for him. She even did what she did on the night of Zhao Zhen's death. A decision was made in his favour.

Therefore, for the status of Empress Dowager Cao, Zhao Shu broke the butt of a naughty slave as a guarantee.

Don't mess with the Queen Mother!

This is his hint!

But the visitor shouted: "Go away, the officials are coming."

The two troublesome chamberlains came back in disgrace, and Ren Shouzhong greeted them with a smile.

Zhao Shu strode over, followed closely by Chen Zhongheng, and then Zhao Shangshu.

Zhao Shangshu's face was still pale and he followed step by step.

"I've met the officials."

Ren Shouzhong saluted. Seeing her appearance, he knew that this person would be in trouble in the future.

As a noble person, people around you will generally be respected. Empress Dowager Cao still has a bad temper.

But today Zhao Shangshu was scolded by Empress Dowager Cao, which was a bad start.

There are only so many positions for female officials in the palace. The official position of Zhao Shangshu is "Shang Gong". This is the top female official and is respected as "Shang Shu".

This is a piece of cake. After today, someone will dig a hole for her and see Queen Mother Cao's reaction. If Queen Mother Cao doesn't care, then Zhao Shangshu can go to sleep, and the subsequent attacks will overwhelm her.

The sad feeling of rabbit dying and fox only lasted for a moment. Ren Shouzhong followed all the way and was stopped outside the palace.

Chen Zhongheng said coldly: "The officials and the empress have something to say."

Ren Shouzhong smiled and said, "Yes, I was reckless."

This person can be said to be flexible and flexible, and Chen Zhongheng raised the threat of this person to a higher level.

There were several palace maids accompanying him inside. After Zhao Shu saluted and said hello, he asked: "Your Majesty, is this minister at fault?"

If not, why did Empress Dowager Cao suddenly ask to leave the palace?

"It's none of your business." Empress Dowager Cao said coldly: "Then I heard that for many years, the Imperial City Department had made great efforts. Zhang Ba8en personally tried many times but could not succeed, but he was severely injured by a girl. I want to take a look."

Well!

Zhao Shu didn't expect this to be the reason. He frowned and said, "But the rules..."

What are you, a widow, doing out of the palace? When the time comes, censors will not be able to save money. A burst of impeachment will make you feel ashamed.

"Now that Da Lang is free, what does my reputation mean to me?"

The Empress Dowager Cao was probably most concerned about Cao Yi, so she said calmly: "Whether you are quiet and want to be active, or you don't follow the rules of a woman, I want to go out, can you?"

These words were too serious, and Zhao Shu could only smile bitterly and lower his head.

He stared at the female officials around the Queen Mother and said coldly: "Protect your Majesty."

Queen Mother Cao glanced at him and said rudely: "I can protect myself, but you should be more careful when leaving the palace in the future."

This person almost killed a close official, and Zhao Shu was a scumbag compared to her in terms of martial arts.

But this was concern, and Zhao Shu could only respond awkwardly.

"Bring your sword with you. If Nawen Wuji dares to come, I would like to see his martial arts skills."

Empress Dowager Cao went out carefree, and the female officer following behind her held a long sheathed sword in her hand.

This is a special existence in the palace. Zhao Zhen's permission has been extended to this day, and Zhao Shu cannot refuse it.

The key is that Queen Mother Cao's words moved Zhao Shu a little.

"Is the empress worried that I will be ambushed by Wen 52 when I leave the palace?" Zhao Shu said movedly: "That's why she took the risk of leaving the palace as bait..."

…

After leaving the palace, Zhao Shangshu looked at the carriage in front of him with some despair, feeling sad in his heart.

She has served Empress Dowager Cao for many years and can be said to be conscientious. Now that she is almost thirty years old, she is so embarrassed. How will she behave in the palace in the future?

The curtain of the carriage was suddenly opened. Someone went over to listen and then turned around and said: "Zhao Shangshu, the empress wants you to get in the carriage."

Zhao Shangshu was shocked and hurried over.

Except for Zhao Zhen, Empress Dowager Cao did not like to stay close to others. Even Zhao Shangshu guessed that because Zhao Zhen was the emperor and husband, Empress Dowager Cao endured it, otherwise she would probably rather stay alone.

But now she actually let herself get on the carriage...

She climbed onto the carriage carefully and knelt down on the edge, lowering her head, revealing a trace of thin skin and tender flesh on her neck.

Empress Dowager Cao looked at the neck and the long black hair, and asked lightly: "Is your family from Yizhou?"

"Yes." Zhao Shangshu didn't know what Empress Dowager Cao meant by asking this question, so he could only answer cautiously.

"Are your parents still at home?"

"yes."

"Are you many brothers and sisters?"

"yes."

"Do your parents miss you?"

"..."

Zhao Shangshu raised his head blankly, thinking of his vaguely remembered home, parents, brothers and sisters.

"They...I don't know."

She had a fertile mother who gave her many brothers and sisters.

When there are too many children, the relationship becomes scattered, so that year she was elected to the palace, but her parents just ignored her and said she was going to enjoy her happiness.

Queen Mother Cao's eyes were filled with sadness.

When we arrived at Shen's house later, Shen An hadn't come back yet, but Guo Guo had been taken back to recover from her injuries.

"I've met my empress."

Zhuang Laoshi was so frightened that he peed.

Which dynasty and generation does this damn guy come from!

The widowed Queen Mother can actually leave the palace?

This is not to seek death with the Shen family, right?

"Where is Guoguo?"

"exist."

Zhuang Laoshi quickly asked Aunt Chen to bring Guoguo out.

Guoguo came out with a few minor scratches on her face and medicine on her hands. Because she injured her knee, she walked a little slowly.

"I've met my empress."

"Stand still."

Empress Dowager Cao saw that Guoguo's eyes were normal and she didn't have the fear of being weak, so she couldn't help but said with admiration: "You have wisdom..."

I heard that Queen Mother Cao was also cultivating Taoism, so Zhuang Laoshi was agitated when he heard this. He thought that Queen Mother Cao should not try to convert the little lady, because the husband would probably fight for her when he came back.

Shen An's temperament is generally very amiable, and that's because you didn't cause anything he cared about.

If provoked...

For example, Wen Wujiu's gang of men were pulled out of the Mangshan Army to hunt them down all night long.

"Would you like to learn martial arts from me?"

Queen Mother Cao's words made Zhuang Laoshi feel relieved, and he looked at Guoguo, wishing he could agree on her behalf.

Following Empress Dowager Cao into the palace to learn martial arts, she must have gone in every once in a while. After word spread, Guoguo's identity would be different.

The husband-in-law must choose a girl that Queen Mother Cao values ​​​​higher, right?

Guo Guo raised her head and said seriously: "Thank you, Madam, it's just...it's just...it's just that I don't want to."

Zhuang Laoshi's heart skipped a beat, and he glanced at Empress Dowager Cao worriedly, fearing that she would be angry.

"Oh, why?" Empress Dowager Cao was not angry, but asked with interest.

Guoguo felt that the queen mother was very amiable, so she boldly expressed her thoughts, "My brother wants me to study every day, Huahua needs to be fed every day, Lumao needs to be fed every day, and someone needs to talk to him... I am very busy. "

puff!

One of the chamberlains couldn't help but laugh, and then he was glanced at by Ren Shouzhong, who couldn't help but sweat dripping down his back.

"She's only ten years old!" Empress Dowager Cao also smiled, then pointed to Zhao Shangshu beside her and asked: "Do you think she is kind?"

Guo Guo glanced at Zhao Shangshu, nodded and said: "Kindly. UU read www.uukanshu.net "

Queen Mother Cao stood up and said, "Go back."

After they left, Zhuang Laozhi said fearfully: "Why did the little lady refuse just now? Huahua and the little green-haired man can be fed."

Guoguo shouted: "Lvmao!"

The sound of slapping came, and then a green shadow flew to Guoguo's shoulder, and then said slowly: "That woman is so fierce!"

These words made Zhuang Laoshi couldn't help but laugh.

Lu Mao combed his feathers, and Hua Hua heard the sound and came over, staring at it with unkind eyes.

"Dead dog!"

Lu Mao shrank his neck, then yelled.

Only then did Guo Guo explain her reasons, "Brother said that the palace is like the bottom of a well. I have seen the bottom of a dry well. It stinks and is not fun. I will definitely not go there. Also... Brother said that the palace is like the bottom of a well. Most of the people there are...perverts? It's not fun, and I don't want to go."
