The eldest princess is the only daughter of the late emperor. After His Majesty the Emperor ascended the throne, he was named Princess Yongtao. From the time of Prince Cheng's Mansion to the palace, this princess was extremely favored, but her temperament did not follow the domineering path. Instead, she fell deeper into the sorrowful green lake. She was sad about spring and autumn at any time, and she cried because of the flying flowers and tears from the rivers that went east. Of course, this is a certain personality trait that will be revealed in front of the closest people.

She looked at the queen mother with resentment and said, "The emperor's brother is the same. It's not good to betroth it to the Fan family. I know that the Fan family and the Prime Minister..."

"You go out first." The queen mother suddenly opened her eyes, lowered her voice but said two words in great majesty. The nannies stepped out quietly without expression.

With a "pa!", a red palm print appeared on the eldest princess' face. She looked at her mother in front of her with fear. The queen mother gritted her teeth and said coldly: "How many times have I said, don't ask that person in front of me! You are shameless, our royal family still has shame! If you hadn't protected him with your life back then, I would have killed that person long ago!"

"I have never let him meet Chen'er for so many years, but I have not set any obstacles for him." The Queen Mother's kindness has long gone, and her face is full of frost. "Because I know that when he wanted to marry you, you were afraid that you would miss his future, so I would not marry... OK! If you want to give him a future, I will give him a future. Now he is the leader of all officials, and you should fulfill your original wish, but... I don't allow you to have any relationship with him anymore. In Chen'er's marriage, the Lin family cannot have any say. Do you understand?"

The eldest princess wiped off her tears and smiled hard. But her voice trembled: "I understand."

The empress dowager then turned around, looked at the queen, and said lightly: "The emperor is busy with government affairs. If you are doing things like this, you should worry more about it. You should handle the marriage of your children more, but since the emperor has given Chen'er to the Fan family, don't worry too much."

"Yes." The queen had already been shocked by the scene just now, and quickly lowered her head and responded.

"Queen, don't always serve Ai's house. When you have free time, you should spend more time with the emperor to relieve your worries." The empress dowager's tone became much gentler, and the encouragement in her words was very obvious.

The queen smiled bitterly and responded. Suddenly, she frowned, as if she had thought of something.

The Queen Mother didn't know the truth about these people's thoughts, and said softly: "If you have anything, just say it."

The queen looked at the eldest princess who was still wiping the tears, and whispered: "Eunuch Hong sent someone to say that a case is being tried in the Kyoto Government today."

"Oh? What case? Even that old dog is interested."

The queen smiled embarrassedly: "Mother, everyone in the capital is interested in this matter, because this case started to make a fuss in the government office in the morning, and it was dragged until the previous result... I heard that it was Guo Baokun, the only son of Guo Youzhi, the Minister of Rites. He sued the person in the Fan Mansion, saying that the man blocked Guo Baokun and beat Guo Baokun the street last night and recited a poem, which... He also read it before."

"Oh?" said the queen mother in surprise: "Whoever is the guest of the misery of thousands of miles away?

As soon as these words came out, the queen next to her couldn't help but cover her mouth and laughed. The company princess burst into tears and said, "Mother's words are so funny."

The empress dowager smiled and said, "It's not that I'm funny, it's that Fan Xian's interesting. I've just been in Beijing for a few days, why did I beat Shangshu's son? Tell me about the Ai family what the scene is on the government office." She suddenly thought of something and frowned and said, "Don't Kyoto Mansion dare to use torture, right? This is going to be broken, how can I get married in October?"

The queen burst into laughter and said, "What is the mother saying? Although Fan Xian is not a serious background, he is Si Nanbo's flesh and blood. He has talent in his chest and abdomen. He has been a scholar and cannot be beaten."

"That's good." The Queen Mother said: "Then are the people who often stay with the prince?"

For some reason, the queen's face suddenly became a little uneasy and she responded in a low voice. Sure enough, the queen mother snorted and said, "Those little bastards will only persuade Cheng Qian to walk on horseback and get on eagles. They are all full of bad water. Needless to say, Fan Xian must have beaten up well."

The eldest princess' expression was still, but her mood was very complicated. She never expected that her mother would think that the Fan family's illegitimate child was good without asking the reason, but she was slapped before, so it was inconvenient to speak at this time. Fortunately, the queen Xiaoyi said: "That editor Guo is quite famous, so it is always unreasonable to be beaten on the street like this."

It seemed that the queen had different ideas from her. The queen mother had no reaction and asked lightly: "How is the result of the case trial?"

"Fan Xian moved Prince Jing to be a witness, so the Kyoto Government Office had no choice but to temporarily postpone the trial."

"Hongcheng is a witness for him? It seems that this little Fan Xian is still popular."

The queen was secretly happy, knowing that although the empress dowager had nothing on the surface, she was actually most annoyed by the fact that the officials and the royal family were too close to each other. However, she also knew that things had to be proportional and could not say too much, so she turned the topic back: "I heard that on the night when Guo Editor was beaten, the son of the Fan family and the prince were staying on the Liujing River... so this matter should have nothing to do with him."

The palace was silent for a while, and the atmosphere seemed a little depressed. The queen mother suddenly stood up and said, "I'm a little tired." The nanny and palace maids outside rushed to support her, and a large group of people walked back to the palace.

After watching the Empress Dowager's carriage slowly turn into the palace wall, the Empress and the Princess stood up and looked at each other. A wry smile appeared on the corner of the Queen's lips: "It seems that although the Empress Dowager is very unhappy with the Fan family's prostitute, her tone has not loosened. I'm afraid that Chen'er will really marry in half a year."

The eldest princess sighed and said, "I am just worried about Fan Xian's character, but..." She looked at the queen, her weak expression seemed to be like the weeping willows by the river, and she said softly: "The Fan family has a good relationship with Prince Jing's Mansion, so the queen should be more careful."

The queen was furious, knowing that the other party was reminding herself that if the boy surnamed Fan really married the other party's daughter and His Majesty really handed over the business of the Neiku family to the Fan family for management, then the Fan family and the son, one in the Ministry of Revenue and the other in the Neiku, would be equivalent to mastering the exchanges of the money of the Qing Kingdom. And if the Fan family really turned to the second prince because of the relationship between Prince Jing's Mansion, I was afraid that the prince... She frowned and thought that although his son was not good enough, he was the only legitimate son after all. Is Your Majesty's move of what is the profound meaning?

"Don't think too much." The eldest princess comforted: "You also know that I have rarely been in charge of the internal warehouse affairs in the past two years, and the Supervision Bureau has been in charge of it. After all, the Fan family does not have enough status. Even if the person named Fan Xian really marrys Chen'er, it is impossible for him to really hold on to the internal warehouse."

The queen frowned and said, "I'm just very suspicious now. What kind of mysterious soup did that old guy Fan Jian give the emperor? He actually told His Majesty."

The eldest princess smiled and said, "The Empress must have not summoned Liu to the palace for a long time, right?"

The queen looked cold and said, "That woman married Fan Jian as her concubine. She seemed stupid, but she was actually cunning and cruel. Four years ago, you came up with an idea to kill the illegitimate son of Danzhou, but in the end, Liu's family came out. She must have a grudge against us. If she wants to seduce her out as a shield, it's not easy."

"So what?" The eldest princess smiled sweetly. The skin of a man in his thirties was still very good. "Does she dare to say something? Besides, I have known Mrs. Liu since I was a child and knew that she was a man who liked to be stubborn."

The queen suddenly frowned and said, "It's strange, why did Your Majesty decide to hand over the Neiku to the Fan family four years ago? If it weren't for the urgent matter, there would be no need to take risks at that time." The eldest princess said softly: "Brother Emperor doesn't like me that I have a good relationship with you, so she decided to let me get rid of Neiku... Otherwise, she wouldn't have asked the Dean to send someone to me from the beginning."

She then sighed: "The civil and military officials in the court, no matter how ignorant, have a way to control them. But that President Chen is loyal to His Majesty and has no way to handle the hospital. We can't even put it into the hands of the manpower."

When the queen heard this, she frowned unconsciously: "As a minister, it is natural to be loyal to Your Majesty. We secretly put in people, and we are worried that the Lord will be deceived by the treacherous ministers. President Chen is loyal to him, so there is no need to say much." The eldest princess knew that she had said the wrong thing and said softly: "Yes, but the Supervisory Court has never stopped pursuing the assassination case in Danzhou over the years. It seems that it was His Majesty's strict order."
