Chapter 352 Confession

 “My dear concubine, you have overstepped your bounds!”

The emperor's cold words made the imperial concubine, whose head was like a ball of mush due to illness, finally sober up.

She knew very well that the Queen Mother had always had a love-loving temperament, or rather she was a stickler. She would never deal with anyone the Emperor liked. The Queen Mother cared about the relationship between mother and child more than anyone else.

But at this moment, the emperor's seemingly light words made her kneel down on the spot.

The futon prepared by Grandma Sun before was finally put to use.

"Your Majesty, I am confused because of my illness, and I lost my sense in what I said." Concubine Li quickly admitted her mistake.

The emperor looked at her sick look, and he swallowed the words he wanted to blame, and instead said: "Go back, I will allocate a few more good maids to serve you."

The imperial concubine suddenly felt despair. She didn't have high hopes for this trip, but now after listening to the emperor's words, she reluctantly found out that the emperor did not intend to let him go.

"Taozhi is a maid assigned to me by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. She has made a mistake now, and it is because of my lax discipline. Please punish me," the imperial concubine said.

The Queen Mother could tell that she was retreating in order to make progress and wanted to clear up the relationship. However, the emperor had long been accustomed to doting on the imperial concubine. At this time, he directly said to the imperial concubine:

"Don't worry, she is her, and you are you. I will not be angry with you because of her. Just go back and recover in peace." After the emperor said this, he looked at the people waiting on the side.

Two palace maids came forward and helped the imperial concubine up from the ground.

After the people left, the Queen Mother said: "The emperor has a deep affection for the imperial concubine, and I don't know if she can understand it."

The emperor didn't say anything. Although he was used to doting on the concubine, no one wanted the woman he doted on to be a snake-hearted woman. He couldn't help but recall the first time he met the concubine, and he couldn't bear it in his heart. He was not even willing to pursue the matter further. Taozhi's fault.

After all, although it was a poisonous scent, in the final analysis, it did not lead to a big mistake.

Although Niuniu and Luo Meiren were at the side, they didn't speak just now.

At this time, the little girl and others left, and then she asked the emperor: "Uncle the emperor, have you finished the examination?"

The emperor suddenly came to his senses and continued to look down at Niu Niu's homework. He gradually dismissed the thoughts that had just arisen in his heart, and the harmonious scene in the palace returned to before.

The Queen Mother was relieved in her heart. Her son was suffering too much and there was no one in the harem who could cheer him up. Since Niu Niu came, even if she was not her biological child, she could make the emperor feel the happiness of a family.

"You practiced calligraphy very well, much better than last time." The emperor said with a smile.

Niu Niu raised her little face and said, "I told you that I did my homework seriously!"

"Okay, okay, I almost wronged you." The emperor replied.

Luo Meiren was at the side, taking out a handkerchief and gently wiping the sweat on the little girl's forehead.

"Is it hot?" The emperor looked puzzled at Niu Niu's sweat.

The Queen Mother said from the side: "Children are born with body heat."

The emperor and the queen mother were getting older, and their physical functions were much worse. They were inevitably afraid of cold more than heat. Now there was only a basin of ice placed in the corner of the palace, and they didn't feel hot at all.

Niuniu sighed and said, "I really want to eat ice cream."

The emperor and the queen mother immediately looked at each other, and the queen mother asked: "What is ice cream? Tell me, and the Ai family will ask the imperial kitchen to make it for you."

"The ice cream is ice-cold, milky, and very delicious..." The child's words were confused and he couldn't describe it clearly for a long time. The Queen Mother was a little anxious.

On the other hand, Luo Meiren said softly from the side: "Your Majesty, I hear the description, it sounds a bit like ice cream."

The Queen Mother immediately said: "Mother Sun, go and ask the imperial kitchen to make a piece of ice cream for Niu Niu." The imperial kitchen moved quickly. When Grandma Sun returned, she brought a food box and took out a dozen portions. Ice cheese.

"Is this the ice cream you mentioned earlier?" the Queen Mother asked with a smile.

How can a child not be greedy? Niu Niu looked at the ice cream on the table without blinking: "Although it looks different, it smells the same..."

Her greedy little look made the adults present couldn't help laughing.

Grandma Sun explained: "The imperial dining room will provide a portion of ice cheese to the high-ranking concubines every day. It was a coincidence when the old slave went there. I heard that our Shoukang Palace wanted it, so we sent it all, and the masters also had more." Do."

Niu Niu immediately took a portion and sent it to the Queen Mother: "Grandma, Queen Mother, please try it quickly, it's delicious!"

It was not like the Queen Mother had never eaten ice cream before. She shook her head and said, "The Ai family is old and cannot afford such cold things."

Niu Niu was brought to the emperor again, and the emperor also shook his head.

She turned around and gave it to Luo Meiren. Luo Meiren saw that neither the emperor nor the queen mother took it, but she was greedy and didn't know whether she should eat it or not.

The Queen Mother smiled and said: "Niuniu is very filial, don't let it down."

The Romanian happily took the ice cream.

Niu Niu immediately sent it to the other maids and eunuchs serving the master in the palace.

This was food that only high-ranking concubines could eat. They didn't dare to accept it, so they quickly rejected it.

"Why don't you eat it? This is delicious!" Niu Niu said in confusion.

The Queen Mother said casually: "They don't like to eat it. You should eat it quickly to avoid it melting in a while."

Niuniu turned around and looked at a large table of ice cream, her eyes suddenly lit up: "Are these all mine? That's great. When I was at home, Sister Shuying would never make so many for me at one time. !”

After Niuniu finished speaking, she suddenly realized that she had made a mistake.

But no one else seemed to pay much attention to the name "Shu Ying".

"That's right. How can a child eat so much cold food at one time? It will easily spoil his stomach!" said the Queen Mother.

Grandma Sun immediately took away all the other ice cream, leaving only one portion.

Niu Niu was visibly disappointed, but she did not eat immediately. Instead, she approached the Queen Mother and asked, "Can I give some to my friends?"

The Queen Mother sighed: "You always think about them."

Luo Meiren on the side looked at this scene and suddenly felt dazed for a moment.

She always felt that this scene seemed extremely familiar, like a dream she had experienced before. In the end, she shook her head slightly, but said nothing.

Originally, the Queen Mother and the Emperor thought that Taozhi's interrogation would take a lot of time, but they did not expect that Niu Niu had just finished eating the ice cheese.

Qian Rongsheng hurriedly walked in again. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Luo Mei and Niu Niu there again, so he could only shut his mouth.

"My dear, you and your beautiful sister go to the yard to play for a while." The Queen Mother pushed him away.

After the people left, Qian Rongsheng just said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Taozhi was afraid of involving his family, so he identified Concubine Li as the mastermind, and she also caused other troubles."
