Chapter 75
: "Cold Palace" is miserable
"When the palace has drafted a new candidate for the Huayue Club affairs, it will not stop you from dealing with him."
"My mother, you once told me that the only way to maintain the dignity of the king's law is to strictly abide by it. If I do not punish Shi En in time, first of all, He Sheng and the others will write about it. The Queen Mother will not want to see her son in a difficult situation, right?"
Empress Dowager Lu took a long breath: "What you said makes sense. You are my son and the heir whom you and your father have high expectations. How could I be willing to see you in a dilemma?"
The emperor straightened his back slightly: "Will the mother forgive her son?"
"Forgive me, just do what you said."
The emperor was silent. He was still arguing the matter a moment ago, but he felt relieved so happily in the next moment, and fools would feel that it was abnormal.
He said, "Since I forgive my son, can the mother let Sister Su off?"
Empress Dowager Lu turned her head and looked at him: "What does it have to do with me, Liu Su'er, copying scriptures in the palace?"
"She is my guardian of the Ganqing Palace."
"From now on, your guard will be requisitioned." Empress Dowager Lu looked ahead and shook her fan.
The emperor was speechless and said, "My mother, can we be more happy? I know you were angry and locked up Sister Su. Actually, it's not her fault. As long as the evidence is not reached by Queen Mother, I will be absolutely sure to get it. It's not something she can stop it."
Empress Dowager Lu shook the fan and ignored him.
The emperor took a breath and said, "Marquis Qingyun is a hero in the court and a veteran. Even if you ignore your son's affection, you should take it for his sake? If you don't look at the monk's face and the Buddha's face, please let her go."
"I just kept her for a few days and you will use the hat of a hero to suppress me. Look at the deserted harem, I don't blame you for not getting married yet. You want to blame me for finding a companion for yourself? Is this your filial piety?"
"This is two different things. Sister Su will have to go back after all. Even if you keep her down to copy the scriptures, you can't leave her in the palace for the rest of your life."
"Why can't it be? I accept her as my goddaughter."
"Then she has to get married too!"
Empress Dowager Lu stopped the fan: "It makes sense! When you talk about this, I remember that you used any means to hold Qingyun Hou's daughter in your arms, did Marquis Qingyun know?"
The emperor's lips twisted into a line, but he didn't squeeze out a word.
Empress Dowager Lu said in a voice: "Gao Shu, go and invite Hou Qingyun to come. I haven't seen him for a long time. I want to talk to him."
"Mother Queen!"
Gao Shu looked at the emperor who was even tense with sympathy. The emperor's intestines were dark enough, but when he met Empress Dowager Lu... Alas, who told him to meet his own mother?
"My mother," the emperor calmly said, "If my son had to take Sister Su out, what are the conditions for the Queen Mother?"
"Didn't I say everything just now?"
"Shien's matter is really undiscussed. Please understand the queen of the mother."
"It's OK," said Empress Dowager Lu, "Shi En can be handed over to you, but the candidate who is missing from the Left Minister of Rites must be designated by this palace."
"My mother, you once said that you will not interfere with the rule of your son."
"The original intention of our palace to establish the Flower Moon Association was to give women in the world a more way of life, hope, and dignity. During the three years of his reign, the emperor has made drastic efforts to strengthen military and develop the economy, but it seems that he did not take the situation of women in the world to heart.
"When your father was alive, I was qualified to be a governor. I did say that I would not interfere with your rule. That is why I would like to see you have made great achievements and let you do it.
"But as the founder of the Flower Moon Society, when I, as the founding queen, could not even maintain the policies in my hands, then it should be you and your father who should be shamed!"
The decision made by the founding queen, who made great contributions at the beginning of Dingguo, was impacted, which indeed shows that the ministers did not respect the emperor and the empress.
However, in a society where the gentry is in power, it is indeed a difficult task to change the situation of women. It is foreseeable that the literati, whose ideas of superiority and inferiority of men are deeply rooted in the mind, obeying from the bottom of their hearts in the short term. Therefore, we cannot simply treat the imperial power as despised.
Empress Dowager Lu's righteous words also made the atmosphere worse.
The emperor sat for a while and stood up: "There are many major things to do in his hands. If the harem can directly appoint the third-rank official in the court, the government affairs in his hands will be unfavorable. Therefore, the condition of the mother's queen is still unfavorable."
After saying that, he bowed deeply and left the threshold.
Empress Dowager Lu looked at him disappearing outside the door, rolled her eyes slightly before retracting her gaze.
...
The emperor left Cining Palace, stood there and looked around, then raised his legs and walked towards Changle Palace.
There were few people in the harem, and Zhao Su lived alone in the entire Changle Palace. Fortunately, the furniture was complete, so he packed up and lived in.
But she is now a "prisoner", with only a few rooms and a bare yard with only a pomegranate and wisteria trees planted. This situation is really a condition for a dream-opener to imagine that she was a miserable and miserable concubine who was sent to the cold palace!
The key point is that Empress Dowager Lu let her live here in the name of copying scriptures. She probably knew that she could not write calligraphy, so she didn't even send her pen, ink, paper and inkstones. So she couldn't help but pull a piece of paper and write a recipe.
It took the palace people half an hour to clean the room, and then she sat cross-legged on the Arhat bed to look at the ceiling. I don’t know when the Hou Qingyun would get her out? How long should she stay here? Otherwise, she would make some food to please Empress Dowager Xia Lu?
She is not Mary Sue, otherwise according to the logic of the bloody text, the emperor should have a scene at this time, come and sway around, and ask her "Do you know you are wrong?" Then, as the heroine, as long as she remains speechless and in a cold and elegant manner, the emperor herself can't stand it and get her out first.
Even if the emperor is not so sensible, just ask her if she knows whether she knows her mistake? She will definitely say that she knows her mistake and get out first. It’s so uncomfortable to go to jail! She couldn’t stand it after only over an hour!
The key is that she is still hungry, so she rubs her stomach.
She didn't eat any of the snacks that were roasted in the morning.
"It's okay to live here?"
The eardrum suddenly felt stimulating, as if such a sound was really coming from somewhere...
He raised his head and looked around, and his eyes stopped at the window! Opening the ventilated window, the emperor was really standing there, revealing half of his body, with his yellow robe flowing, and he looked at her in the room with his hands indifferently.
If she hadn't been in the way of her concubine, she would have thought she had entered a bloody novel that was so cruel that she was so cruel!
