Weiyang Palace, Jiaofang Hall.

Queen Chen Ajiao sat in front of the hall, frowned slightly, and was lazy. Several young palace maids stood far away, holding their breath, and no one dared to disturb her.

The queen is not in a good mood recently. The emperor who has been married for many years finally has a daughter, but it was not born by the queen. This makes the queen very embarrassed and has many crises, so she naturally won’t feel better.

"Where is the county magistrate?"

The palace maids looked at each other, and an older palace maid came over, leaned down, and said softly: "Perhaps... I'll go to Shanglinyuan to hunt again. Winter is the time for beasts to be fat..."

Before he finished speaking, a female official hurried in from outside the door. "Your descended from the palace, Your descended from you."

"What?" Chen Ajiao was shocked and suddenly stood up. The palace maid who was talking to her was caught off guard. She was hit in front of her and screamed in pain. Chen Ajiao was furious and shouted, "The county magistrate is here. You don't go and prepare for the welcome, but you call me Soul here. Is it a bad thing for me?"

The palace maid was so scared that she knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly. Chen Ajiao ignored her and turned to the female official and said, "Is the county official really here?"

"I..." The female official ran red, panting, but with a happy look on her face. "I saw the emperor leave the front hall and come here."

Chen Ajiao frowned. "Can't you go to see the advocate, right?"

"It shouldn't be." The female official didn't dare to be too sure. "If you go to see Mrs. Wei, you should go west. But I saw it really, the emperor is coming here. Queen, you should hurry up..."

The female official raised her hand and stroked her face. Chen Ajiao woke up like a dream. She rushed to the hall and shouted as she walked, "Hurry, hurry up, dress me up."

The palace maids immediately became busy and quickly surrounded them. They combed Chen Ajiao's hair, washed her face, and changed her clothes. When everything was done, Chen Ajiao was charming, but her eyes became gloomy again.

"Where did the county magistrate go?"

The female official was trembling. She already knew that something was wrong. The queen had put on her makeup and the emperor had not come yet. She must have gone to another place. And that place was probably Wei Zifu, who had just given birth to a daughter.

"Queen, I..."

"Drag it down and send it to the trouser stick to death!" Chen Ajiao was furious and pulled off the jewelry she had just put on her head, throwing it everywhere, even the well-plated bun was torn up. She screamed hysterically and swept all the things on the dressing table to the ground.

"If this unfaithful thief hadn't been my family, could he be the emperor? He said it nicely that day, and if Gillian was a wife, he should store it in a golden house. Now it's great, I've really locked up in this golden house..."

"Empress, Your Majesty is here." A palace maid rushed in with her skirt. When she saw the queen's appearance, she was stunned and speechless, not knowing what to do.

"Where is he?" Chen Ajiao screamed with red eyes, "Where is he?"

"Your Majesty is... outside the door." The palace maid stretched out her hand tremblingly and pointed behind her.

The emperor stood outside the door and looked at Chen Ajiao quietly. Chen Ajiao was stunned, her face pale. "Your Majesty...Your Majesty..."

The palace maids next to them all knelt on the ground with a pounce, pressing their heads against the ground, and they didn't even dare to show off their anger.

Chen Ajiao looked left and right, at a loss. The emperor sighed, walked over, and pulled Chen Ajiao's hand. "Ajiao, what are you doing?"

Chen Ajiao was led by him like a puppet, and came to the messy dressing table, and was pressed down by him. The emperor glanced at it, found the comb from the ground, gently untied Chen Ajiao's messy hair bun, and combed it one by one. After he touched it, Chen Ajiao woke up from a dream, quickly turned around, held the emperor's wrist with both hands, and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, I..."

"Okay." The emperor smiled. "You are angry because of me, so let me comb your hair for you. Didn't you always say that I'm the best to combed my hair?"

Chen Ajiao blushed and she smiled embarrassedly. She sat down again, lowered her head, and asked the emperor to help her comb her hair. The emperor was not too slow and carefully opened her bun. While helping her to tidy up her hair, she spoke to her slowly.

"I had wanted to come. The princes came to pay tribute and I wanted to receive them. There were many things to do. I was busy until midnight every day. I wanted to come here, but I was afraid of disturbing your Qingmeng. I didn't take some time until now. Gillian, you won't blame me, right?"

"No, no, you are the lord of the world, and your government is busy... busy, I... I just feel ashamed and can't help you."

"You don't blame me, you just help me." The emperor smiled and shaved a little on Chen Ajiao's nose. "Look at you, your makeup is exhausted. Others feel uncomfortable, they are tormenting others. You are not feeling comfortable, but they are tormenting yourself."

Chen Ajiao smiled shyly and asked casually: "Who has troubled you?"

"Who else can it be? Uncle Wang." The emperor smiled bitterly and said, "I won't mention him anymore. I've been upset by him recently, but I don't want you to be implicated."

Chen Ajiao turned around, grabbed the emperor's hand, held it in front of her chest, and said seriously: "Your Majesty, you and I are husband and wife, what can't you bear together? What did the King of Huainan say again? Did you say you in front of the Empress Dowager?"

The emperor tilted his mouth and sighed, as if he had agreed.

"What's going on? Tell me what's going on. If you have any grievances, I'll go to the Empress Dowager."

"Don't leave, the Empress Dowager is in poor health, if..."

"No." Chen Ajiao said: "You are the lord of the world. How can you let a prince bully? Tell me quickly, I will help you deal with him."

The emperor nodded helplessly and talked about the recent situation. Although the King of Huainan did not come to court, he kept writing letters and even talked about the celestial phenomena, and said openly and secretly that the court's behavior was unruly and non-human, which would sooner or later cause trouble.

When Chen Ajiao heard this, her eyebrows were raised and she was furious.

On that day, the emperor had a meal in the Jiaofang Hall and stayed in the Jiaofang Hall, and had a happy night. The next morning, when the emperor woke up, Chen Ajiao had already washed up. Hearing the noise, she turned around and looked at the emperor and smiled.

"You have a good rest, I'll go to see the Empress Dowager and seek justice for you."

The Empress Dowager Dou leaned on the table, and the thick brocade quilt wrapped around her, like a large swaddle. Her wrinkled skin was loosely covered on her face, as if she could be lifted down at any time. After listening to Chen Ajiao's words, she didn't move and sighed for a long time.

"Giao Jiao, Wei Zifu has given birth to a daughter, are you going to be more careful? There are three unfilial things, no queen is the greatest, you queen... cough cough."

"Big Mother, I know." Chen Ajiao twisted her body and acted coquettishly.

"Mother, we have to find a way." Princess Guantao said: "But, the county magistrate rarely goes to the Jiaofang Hall now. Even if Jiao is well-behaved, what's the use?"

"Where will he go if he doesn't go to the Jiaofang Hall?"

"Don't you know?"

"I am a... blind old lady, what can I know?" The Empress Dowager coughed, so she was so angry that she was out of breath. Princess Guantao and Chen Ajiao quickly helped her up and patted her back gently until she was breathing evenly. The two looked at each other, and were a little worried. The Empress Dowager's health was getting worse day by day. What should they do if she left?

"Okay, I won't say it anymore, I won't say it anymore." Princess Guantao winked at Chen Ajiao one after another. Chen Ajiao refused and insisted: "The Empress Dowager, the King of Huainan entrusted justice outside and kept his own selfishness inside. The Empress Dowager cannot help the evildoer."

"Giao!" Princess Guantao lowered her face and shouted sternly: "How are you talking to your grandmother? You don't understand the rules at all."

The Empress Dowager waved her hand and asked while gasping for a while: "What selfish thoughts does the King of Huainan have?"

"Don't you know that the eldest mother is the wife of Wu'an Hou, who is ugly and weak and sick. Wu'an Hou has never liked it. The King of Huainan wants to marry his daughter Liu Ling to Wu'an Hou as his wife. But Liu Ling had another fan of the same person, the Weiyoung Lang named Liang Xiao who went to the Western Regions..."

Princess Guantao suddenly became alert. Huainan Prince Liu Qian had just married Xiu Chengjun's daughter. If he married his daughter to Wu'an Marquis Tian Fu, then his relationship with the Queen Mother and Queen Mother would be too close. This is definitely not good news for them, especially when the Queen Mother and Queen Mother were born soon.

"Mother, this is probably not suitable, but it's not too senior."

The Empress Dowager's sparse eyebrows rose. "Liang Xiao? This name is very familiar. Recently, someone always mentioned it in my ears. What kind of person is he?"

"Madam, Liang Xiao is a brave and resourceful young man. Like General Li, he has a pair of ape arms and shoots every shot. In time, he will be the pillar of my great man..."

"No, no, no." The Empress Dowager interrupted Chen Ajiao and frowned even more. "There is another thing, another thing."

Princess Guantao's eyes flashed. "Mother, are you talking about double-sided brocade?"

The Empress Dowager nodded repeatedly. "Yes, yes, it's two-sided brocade. Do you still remember that Awu had sent a few two-sided brocades before."

Princess Guantao looked confused and couldn't keep up with the Queen Mother's idea. "Is it? I haven't seen it before."

"Haha..." The Empress Dowager showed a little childlike naughty on her face, and even her spirits improved a little. "Of course you have never seen it. Double-sided brocade is rare. I remember he said that only one person in the world can do this double-sided brocade skills, only a few horses a year, Awu only gave me a few horses, and no one else."

Princess Guantao thought of King Liang Liu Wu, and felt sad for a moment.

The emperor became more and more excited as he spoke, and his face looked strangely rosy. "Later, the man died, and this skill became amazing. Last time Liu Ling sent Jin, I vaguely remembered something like this, but I never remembered who said it. When you mentioned Liang Xiao just now, I suddenly remembered it. Liu Ling said that the skills of this double-sided Jin were sold to her. Liang Xiao... Could it be that Liang Xiao is from Liang?"

Chen Ajiao said with little certainty: "I heard from the county magistrate that Liang Xiao is from Jiangdu."

"You go and ask, you go and ask."

"Here."
