"Forget it, let's not talk about these sad things." The Queen Mother rubbed her face sadly and looked at Shen Qingqing with tears in her eyes, "You said that Yu'er was saved by your master back then, so he should be with you now, right?
Why don't you bring him into the palace so that the Ai family can meet their precious little grandson?"
"This matter starts again with the soul that was taken away by the Queen and the Imperial Master."
Shen Qingqing continued to explain: "Some time ago, the grassroots went to Xiangcheng to find a treasure and found the lost soul of Yu'er. The return of the Emperor Star attracted the attention of the Queen and the Imperial Master. They were not happy again and began to
Send people to hunt us down."
"Fortunately, we met General Zhao on the way and led the southern expedition team back to the court, and brought us safely to the capital. Now the queen's people are staring at the general's palace eagerly, and they will assassinate if they are not careful. How can we dare to take people out?
Take it with you."
The Queen Mother was so angry that she slammed the table, "This Li Rou is really rebellious! There is no room for her in the palace, right?"
After saying that, he jumped up from between the seats, "Where is the Ai family's knife? The Ai family still wants to kill those two stinky bears!"
Gu Jiali pressed her back again, "Old lady, please obey the command and alert them by taking action rashly and risking the lives of your son and grandson?"
"Then what do you want the Ai family to do?" The Queen Mother held the table with one hand and asked angrily: "Apart from chopping people and beating horses, the Ai family can't do anything else."
"Do you know how to act?" Gu Jiali asked her, "Act a play with us and find a way to enter Chengqian Palace and rescue the emperor from their hands."
"Acting..." The Queen Mother nodded to herself, "This Ai family is also good at it."
After finishing speaking, she cleared her throat, straightened her chest, and said loudly to the closed palace door: "Mother Kong, bring the Queen Mother's dress from the Ai family. The Ai family needs to dress up and go to Chengqian Hall to see the emperor.
"
Once you get the tone right, you'll feel like the Queen Mother.
Not long after, a group of palace maids filed in holding tiaras and formal attires, while Shen Qingqing and Gu Jiali retreated to wait outside the palace.
After leaving the palace, Shen Qingqing looked at the blue gown she was wearing that was incompatible with the palace, and asked Gu Jiali: "Do I also have to change my appearance?"
Gu Jiali raised his eyes to look at the palace maids guarding the palace gate in the distance, nodded and said: "Change, I will ask them to find you some palace clothes."
Shen Qingqing sighed silently. She was really busy changing her identity three times a day.
By the time she had changed her clothes and combed her hair in the small cubicle in the side hall, the Queen Mother was almost dressed up as well.
As soon as the palace door opened, the elegant old woman walked out slowly, surrounded by palace people. She changed into a black and red wide-sleeved ceremonial robe. The front, waist, and cuffs of the ceremonial robe were all embroidered with gold thread.
Dense cloud patterns, golden cloud patterns flowing with light during movements, very noble.
She no longer had the amiable smile on her face, she had a straight face, her eyes were looking straight ahead, and she had no expression. Her whole person seemed to be covered with a light layer of frost, giving people a feeling of being cold and inaccessible.
With such an image, it is difficult for people to associate her with the old woman who was laughing and joking with the palace officials.
Shen Qingqing couldn't help but sigh: She is worthy of being a former winner of palace battles. This magnanimity and majesty cannot be compared with that of ordinary women.
A large group of people arrived outside the Chengqian Palace, and as expected, they were stopped when they reached the entrance of the palace.
Baofeng, the emperor's personal eunuch, explained carefully with sweat on his forehead: "The imperial doctor said that the emperor can't get wind now and can't see the light, otherwise his condition will worsen. How about you wait for two more days and come to visit when the situation improves?"
?”
"You asked Aijia to wait for two days and Aijia has to wait for two days? Who do you think you are?" The Queen Mother glanced at him dissatisfied, raised her arm and roughly pushed him away, "Open the door! If something goes wrong, there's nothing wrong with you."
The Ai family will need a piece of meat from you!"
Eunuch Baofeng didn't dare to stop her, so he knelt down behind his buttocks and begged her with a cry: "Empress Dowager, please wait a little longer, the emperor's body is really tormented!"
The Queen Mother ignored him at all. Seeing that there was no one to help open the door, she commanded Aunt Kong with great courage: "Go and open the door! The Ai family has lived for decades, and she has never heard of a disease in the world that prevents the wind from blowing or the light.
!”
Aunt Kong immediately stepped forward to open the door. Before her hand could reach the door, the door was suddenly pushed open from the inside, and the haggard Queen Li walked out.
The Queen Mother's eyes suddenly widened when she saw her face, and the hand hanging by her side seemed to have lost control. With a "pop" sound, she breathed firmly onto the Queen's face.
The air outside Chengqian Hall suddenly solidified.
There were gasps of air all around, and the maids and eunuchs all lowered their heads, not even daring to breathe.
Shen Qingqing silently gave the Queen Mother a thumbs up in her heart. This slap was so satisfying!
Gu Jiali didn't feel any surprise at her reckless move. He turned away and shook his head slightly, with helplessness on his face.
The queen who was beaten covered her face, trembling all over, and her eyes were red with anger.
At this time, the queen mother was possessed by the drama queen. She screamed "ouch, ouch" twice and hurriedly stepped forward to help her rub her face. "Queen, why is it you? The Ai family thought it was some disobedient little palace maid who came out."
, I didn’t stop for a moment, I’m really sorry, I didn’t hurt you, did I?”
How could it not hurt?
She was already very strong, but that slap was delivered with hatred, causing half of the queen's face to become swollen.
But in this situation, let alone she took the initiative to apologize, she just didn't apologize. As a daughter-in-law, if she was slapped by her mother-in-law, could she slap her back again?
The queen gritted her teeth, held back her tears, and suppressed the anger that surged into Tianling Gai. She avoided her hands that were reaching out to cause trouble, and replied softly: "It's okay, I don't feel any pain at all."
The Queen Mother patted her chest with an exaggerated expression and said, "As long as it doesn't hurt, the emperor will definitely feel distressed if it hurts."
But he was cursing in his heart: "Aijia's hands are still weak, so I should slap your vicious woman's head off with a slap!"
The queen rubbed her face, took a breath, and then said: "The queen is here to visit the emperor? But the time may not be coincidental. The emperor just drank medicine and fell asleep. How about you come back at another time?"
"It doesn't matter if you fall asleep. The Ai family can go in and have a look." The Queen Mother pulled her aside and walked straight into the main hall. Gu Jiali, Shen Qingqing, Grandma Kong and others followed them calmly.
Seeing this, the Queen tried to stop her again, "Mother, you can go in by yourself. If there are so many people there at one time, I'm afraid the Emperor will be woken up."
"It's okay to wake him up. Twelve hours a day is enough for him to sleep, not less than this." The Queen Mother waved her hands carelessly.
The queen's eyes flickered, and she finally stopped to stop her. She only whispered a word of advice: "The emperor is in a very bad situation right now. Please be mentally prepared and don't be frightened."
The Queen Mother did not take her words seriously and strode across the threshold.
