Chapter 522
522
In the Queen Mother's bedroom, Emperor Xizheng, who had just ascended the throne, knelt on the ground, lowered his hands and ears to listen to the Queen Mother's reprimand.
The Empress Dowager sat on the Arhat couch, with only Princess Yushan beside her, and the rest of the palace people were driven out.
"I really deserve to congratulate the emperor. I am only hiding such a big happy event from my old woman, and I treat me as an outsider!" The empress dowager smiled on her face, but her eyes did not smile.
Emperor Xizheng hurriedly said, "Mother, forgive me for my crimes! My son knew that this should not be done. It was just because the situation forced me. The ministers were advised to death and were subject to the rebels. I had no choice but to come up with this inferior plan."
Princess Yushan also said from the side: "Mother, the emperor is afraid that you will not be allowed to talk about these things because you are worried about what you know."
The Empress Dowager snorted coldly and said, "You join forces to hide it from me! Now you have done it as the emperor and the heroes have been granted the title. The road has been completed. I know I have no choice but to tell me!"
Princess Yushan also knelt down quickly.
The Queen Mother looked at her and said, "I used to underestimate you, but I just thought you were an inexplicable girl. Now it seems that if such a big thing happened, you can be in front of me. You are so cunning!"
Princess Yushan hurriedly cried, "My mother said this, it really makes me have no place to stay."
The emperor quickly exonerated her and said, "Yushan was also hidden, and she only knew about it half a day earlier than her mother."
The Empress Dowager left Princess Yushan and asked the emperor: "I'll ask you, are you the emperor's true or false?"
The emperor was puzzled and said, "What does the Queen Mother mean? What is the true heart and what is false, please make it clear."
"What's wrong with this? If you really become the emperor, there's nothing to say. You are already in this position now. As long as you don't want to, no one can let you go." The Empress Dowager said: "If you don't really want to be the emperor, it's just a temporary solution. Then wait for Jiamu to come back and return the throne to him well, and you will be your wise king."
"My son is obedient to the mother's mother," Emperor Xizheng raised his head and looked at the queen mother and said, "Whatever the mother wants to do if she wants her son's mother."
After hearing what he said, the Empress Dowager's face reappeared: "Good child, mom knows that you are the most filial. You have been the regent for more than ten years and devoted your efforts to the country, and are worthy of your dead father and brother. I am your mother and I don't want you to be in danger in your later years. Anyway, you have planned to wait for Jiamu to take the power and take a break. I have worked hard for so many years."
"My mother understands the meaning of the son." Emperor Xizheng nodded.
Seeing that he had been kneeling for a long time, the empress dowager was unbearable and reached out to help him up and said, "Get up, my son. Don't blame me for being a mother's cruelty, after all, it's for your own good."
Emperor Xizheng stood up and said, "Mother, there are still some things to be dealt with in a hurry, after all, Jiamu has not come back yet."
"In this way, you go quickly. Don't make any mistakes. Haven't you agreed with those people? You must save Jiamu's life." The empress dowager said hurriedly.
"Of course, if they don't want to be killed by the nine clans, they will naturally not dare to hurt him at all." Emperor Xizheng said.
"Yushan, I'll send your brother to me." The Empress Dowager asked Princess Yushan to send Emperor Xizheng out.
"Then I'll ask Yun Tao and the others to come in and serve." Princess Yushan's face was not resentful, but still had a peaceful and peaceful look.
The palace maids waiting outside heard the order and went into the Empress Dowager's bedroom to serve.
Princess Yushan accompanied Emperor Xizheng out, and two feet away from them followed the eunuchs and palace maids who served him.
"Just send it here, you go back." After walking through the hall, Emperor Xizheng stopped and said to Princess Yushan.
"Brother, is there anything else I want me to do?" Princess Yushan's eyebrows and eyes were slender. The only bad convenience on her face was that mouth, with the corners of her mouth facing downward, looking mean.
Therefore, she always likes to smile slightly on weekdays, which makes her whole face look gentle.
"You can see if the Queen Mother likes the tea I sent a few days ago." Emperor Xizheng also had elephant eyes. In fact, if you look closely, he and Princess Yushan look really similar.
Princess Yushan did not answer immediately, but showed a hesitant look.
"If you don't like making tea, don't worry." Emperor Xizheng smiled and said, "You know that I have always loved you the most, and never like to force you to do things you don't want to do."
"Thank you for your understanding," Princess Yushan said: "Even if you drink tea, you won't be in a hurry."
Princess Yushan sent away Emperor Xizheng and returned to the empress dowager's bedroom.
The Queen Mother took her hand and said, "Good boy, I've just made you wronged."
"My mother, don't say that, it's a damn bad thing." Princess Yushan shook her head quickly: "You are afraid you are tired too. I'll give you a wide dress and lie down to rest."
"Good boy, you know that you feel sorry for others. There will be no need to leave so many people in the house, just leave two outside." The Queen Mother patted the back of Princess Yushan's hand: "I've really not been sleeping well these two days. You will recite the scriptures to me next to me later. I'll be so quiet and have a nap."
"You all go down!" Princess Yushan waved her hand and asked all the palace servants who served her to go out.
She helped the empress dowager loosen her clothes with her hands, helped her lie on the bed, and said, "Mother, I want to live in the temple for a while in a few days."
"What are you going back to the temple to do?" The Queen Mother said in surprise: "Is there anything wrong?"
"It's nothing, it's just that my heart is not pure." Princess Yushan said with a wry smile.
"Silly boy, are you still doing it for Lantai?" asked the Queen Mother.
Princess Yushan's tears flowed down and she cried, "My mother, I can't let him go."
"Silly child, you have been practicing in the empty sect since childhood. You should know that love should not be forced." The Queen Mother touched her head with pity and said, "Although you are a princess, we cannot do things that are difficult for others. Only when we are in love with each other is a good marriage. If you have not met someone who is really destined to be together, should you be sad for someone who has no you in your heart? Listen to me and forget him."
Princess Yushan covered her face and cried for a long time, then wiped her tears and said, "I understand what the mother means. It's me that I'm ignorant, which makes you worry about me."
"You are still young, and you will understand my painstaking efforts in a few decades." The empress dowager said with a smile: "When you cry, the depression in your heart will be dissipated."
"My daughter only remembered that there is a new can of tea that has been obtained recently, which is the best way to calm the mind. I might as well make a bowl for you to taste." Princess Yushan's eyes were still red, but her tone had obviously calmed down.
"Okay, okay, it's rare that you are filial. Make a bowl and try it for me." The Queen Mother didn't want to drink tea, but at this time, in order to make Princess Yushan be happier, she said she wanted to drink it.
Princess Yushan made tea with her own hands and brought it to the Queen Mother.
