Chapter 1001 The Queen’s Tai Chi

Looking at Queen Zhen Xi's somewhat shocked look, Fan Qingyao looked at her red and swollen forehead with tears in her eyes. She rubbed herself against Queen Zhen Xi's feet and pulled the hem of Queen Zhen Xi's skirt pitifully.

"The daughter-in-law has never told the queen mother, just because she is afraid that the queen mother will be worried. But now that the emperor asks about it, the daughter-in-law dare not hide anything. She also asks the queen mother to make the decision for the daughter-in-law. His Royal Highness is so entangled with the daughter-in-law's cousin. Where have you left your daughter-in-law again?”

Queen Zhen Xi didn’t expect to eat a big melon as soon as she arrived, and she couldn’t hide the surprise in her eyes.

She knew that even if Fan Qingyao was trying to perfunctory the emperor, it was impossible for him to tell nonsense. Otherwise, with the emperor's caution, he could find out the truth with a single investigation.

so…

That boy Feng Ming really caused a scandal?

Emperor Yongchang looked at the queen's expression and saw that the surprise in the queen's eyes was not fake, so the suspicion in his heart was reduced a bit.

Empress Zhen Xi suppressed the surprise in her heart, and then softened her tone a little and said, "Even if the prince really has something to do with your cousin, it is your cousin's blessing. Since you are the prince, you still have this kind of tolerance. Yes, if you are really so jealous, wouldn’t it be a discredit to the royal family?”

Fan Qingyao lowered his head, pretending to be very reluctant, but had to nod in agreement, "The mother is right, the daughter-in-law has been worried about this, so she has kept this matter in her heart. I thought that with When His Royal Highness gets angry, His Highness will pay more attention to his daughter-in-law. Unexpectedly, His Highness is even neglecting his father because he is angry with his daughter-in-law. "

These words seemed to be a complaint, but in fact they told the Queen briefly and concisely what happened.

Queen Zhen Xi was actually a little surprised. After all, her son knew better and would not have made such a low-level mistake. But since Fan Qingyao said this, Queen Zhen Xi finally felt confident.

Turning around, she brought the old duck soup in front of the emperor. Queen Zhen Xi looked at the emperor and said, "I have been cooking it all morning today. Your Majesty, try it while it's hot."

Even though Emperor Yongchang had no appetite, he didn't want to offend the Queen. He opened it and took a few sips, then put down the spoon and motioned for the Queen to sit down. He looked at the Queen and said, "It's hard for the Queen to be interested."

Empress Zhen Xi sighed, "The younger generations are not sensible. I have to worry about the emperor's dragon body. Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will teach the prince well. How can I just ignore everything just because of the love between my children?" ”

There was no anger on Emperor Yongchang's face. Instead, he persuaded the queen, "The prince is probably annoyed by the princess's troubles."

 “That’s what the emperor said.” Empress Zhen Xi said with a smile, but she had already rolled her eyes in her heart.

Since the prince became sensible, the emperor has been on guard against the prince, fearing that the prince would sit on the chair in advance. Now the emperor is happier than anyone else that the prince is not doing his job properly.

 Old scumbag, he is indeed a scumbag!

"But speaking of that cousin, I think it doesn't matter if there's one more woman or one less. But I heard that the princess's cousin was in a merchant's house. A woman from such a small family, I'm afraid it's the same. If you can't afford any big scenes, you can just kill time." Queen Zhen Xi said softly.

Emperor Yongchang did not nod or shake his head. He just looked at Fan Qingyao who was kneeling on the ground and said, "No matter what happens to the prince, you still have to abide by your duty."

Fan Qingyao nodded quickly and said, "What my father taught me is that my daughter-in-law has realized her mistake."

Emperor Yongchang waved his hand again, indicating that Fan Qingyao could retreat.

 After Fan Qingyao knelt down, he stood up and exited the hall.

Fan Qingyao didn't let out a long breath until he walked out of the yard.

I had long thought that the emperor would be suspicious, but I didn't expect that the emperor's suspicion seemed to be more serious than before. If it weren't for the queen's help, it would be difficult to convince the emperor.

But thinking about the excuse she just made, Fan Qingyao was afraid that the Empress would have questions. With this in mind, Fan Qingyao went directly to the Empress' palace.

When Queen Zhen Xi saw Fan Qingyao leaving, she stayed with the emperor for a while before getting up and leaving.

Emperor Yongchang looked at the queen's back and waited until the queen's figure completely disappeared before he said, "Bai Tu."

Bai Tu quickly came over and said, "I'm here, my servant."

Emperor Yongchang narrowed his eyes slightly and ordered, "Let the people from Longjian go check and see what the prince is doing." Bai Tu's heart skipped a beat, and he lowered his head and said, "Yes, I will do it now."

Longjian was trained by the emperor to investigate various matters for the emperor. The people within him usually hide very well and do not interact with anyone.

Bai Tu first went to Longjian and conveyed the emperor's message. Then when walking back, he quietly turned into a small alley and blew the whistle in his sleeve.

Not long after, a young **** hurried in.

Bai Tu looked at the visitor, whispered to the little **** in a low voice, and then walked out of the alley as if nothing had happened.

On the other side, Fan Qingyao had just had a sip of tea at the Queen's palace when he saw the Queen leaving and returning.

As soon as they met, before Fan Qingyao stood up to say hello, Queen Zhen Xi pressed her shoulder and asked, "What's going on with that cousin of yours?"

 Empress Zhen Xi still understood Fan Qingyao's character. Even if it was really to stop the emperor's doubts, she would never talk nonsense.

So, that cousin is afraid that she will really be with Feng Ming...

 Empress Zhen Xi thought so, and her heart became even heavier.

Fan Qingyao looked at the Queen and said, "Actually, this matter has nothing to do with His Highness the Crown Prince..."

Queen Zhen Xi was stunned, "Please tell me carefully and listen."

Since Fan Qingyao originally planned to use this excuse to dispel the suspicion in the emperor's heart, he knew that he could not hide it from the empress, so he simply told himself what Wu Qiuzao said and repeated it to the empress.

 Queen Zhenxi, “…”

  What a courage!

“Sure enough, she is the daughter of a small businessman, but she is so ignorant. How can she influence the prince’s ideas?” Empress Zhen Xi scolded her with a cold face.

Although it is common to have three wives and four concubines in Xiliang, from the moment she became a biological wife, those around the emperor have never stopped.

Empress Zhen Xi could not prevent her son from taking concubines in the future, but now a little yellow-haired girl dared to do things under her nose and sow discord between her son and daughter-in-law. It was simply audacious.

Fan Qingyao didn't expect that the Queen would be so angry. After all, he still felt sorry for her. He felt warm in his heart, so he took the initiative to take the Queen's hand and said, "My daughter-in-law didn't take this matter to heart, and my mother didn't take it to heart either." Just don’t get angry.”

Empress Zhen Xi lowered her eyes slightly and looked at her hand held by Fan Qingyao. She felt that this child was too sensible. Her mother is married to someone else. She is afraid that no one will talk to her about what is in her heart, so she has to endure it. Now she is still trying to persuade her. This means that she really regards her as her biological mother.

"What are your plans for this matter?" Queen Zhen Xi asked, suppressing her anger.

"My daughter-in-law always feels that this matter is not as simple as it seems. Cousin Leshan will never be so bold for no reason, so my daughter-in-law is already being watched secretly, and we will wait until we see it later." Fan Qingyao said. .

Empress Zhen Xi nodded and praised Fan Qingyao's calmness, "The Queen knows that you are a good boy. Don't worry, as long as the Queen is here, I will never let you suffer any injustice."

Fan Qingyao smiled and said, "My daughter-in-law thanked my mother."

"Queen, Concubine Liu Shu wants to see you." Lily suddenly walked in and said.

Concubine Liu Shu?

 Empress Zhen Xi frowned, obviously a little surprised.
