"What I'm holding is the palace card. The slaves didn't dare to stop it. They just blocked it outside first."
Just when Empress Dowager Xiao Shu felt a little lonely, a little palace maid appeared in a panic to report.
"Oh? Mrs. Liu is here?"
Empress Dowager Xiao Shu's expression clearly showed joy when she said this, which naturally did not escape Lu Yun's eyes.
It seems that not only the words of Empress Dowager Xiao Shu at the birthday banquet, it is estimated that Empress Dowager Xiao Shu really has the idea of getting close to the Liu family.
"The Queen Mother finally showed off her beauty today."
"The maid goes to invite Madam Liu in?"
She said with a wink, Lu Yun had heard that the Empress Dowager Xiao Shu and others often discussed some things, and generally understood that Mrs. Liu's identity was a concubine, but she couldn't resist such good luck, so she got the Empress Dowager Xiao Shu.
Mind.
Therefore, Lu Yun consciously cannot be careless.
"Luyun, come with me to meet the Liu family."
"Empress Dowager, are you going too?"
As soon as Lu Yun, who was stunned on the spot, left the door, she saw that the Queen Mother Xiao Shu had already stood up and walked over, and she hurriedly followed her.
Looking at Lu Yun who followed, Empress Dowager Xiao Shu couldn't hide her joy: "I told Madam Liu to come to the palace to accompany me. I also said that I could come and go freely, but I didn't expect that most of the people in the palace had never seen her before.
Luyun, this was a mistake on my part."
"It's better to go together to take care of her. It won't be good if Mrs. Liu doesn't come in the future."
After saying this, Lu Yun had no choice but to nod in agreement.
I thought that if Empress Dowager Xiao Shu issued a decree, who would dare not come?
But Lu Yun's mood is still a bit shaken now. She knows that Liu will win the love of Empress Dowager Xiao Shu, but she never thought that the empress dowager would consider Liu's thoughts so much.
Chun Qin and Aunt Liu were stopped at the door by the little palace maid who said she wanted to report back to the Queen Mother. They also waited obediently.
Until the figure of a woman in bright yellow clothes and a delicate hair crown came from a distance.
Seeing this scene, Aunt Liu and Chunqin couldn't help but feel nervous, even though they didn't feel much when they arrived.
Perhaps this was the majesty of the imperial family. At that time, Aunt Liu was able to speak in front of the Empress Dowager Xiao Shu, mainly for the sake of her daughter. Perhaps because of her status as a mother, she could not care about many emotions.
Now it can be said that there are no emotional fluctuations.
"Mr. Liu pays homage to the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager is a thousand years old."
"My servants pay homage to the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager is a thousand years old."
When Empress Dowager Xiao Shu saw the two masters and servants, her tone was slightly excited: "Okay, Mrs. Liu, get up quickly."
"It's also the reason that few people come to my palace. Although I told you to come to the palace often, many maids haven't understood this yet, so you have been kept waiting for a long time."
On the other hand, Empress Dowager Xiao Shu helped Mrs. Liu, who was also frightened in her heart: "Empress Dowager, this is impossible."
There is still dignity and humility
"It's nothing. Since you're here, I just happened to talk to the Ai family about the paintings. The Ai family has always been very interested in these things."
"yes."
The reason why she said and did this was actually because Empress Dowager Xiao Shu could see that Mrs. Liu was very cautious, and the other party couldn't let her go in many places, which she could understand.
In fact, it will be fine once you get used to it.
On the other side of the palace, the emperor listened to what Tang Qinghuan and Yu said with a dark face. On the other side, Tang Guogong didn't know what the emperor was thinking. He was sweating in his heart. If it weren't for the thick official robe, his back would have been wet with sweat.
"Finished?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I have finished speaking."
There was no warmth in the emperor's words, making it impossible to detect the other person's emotions. Yu did not even dare to say a false word here.
"That's quite honest. What do you think, Duke Tang Guo?"
It is not unusual for such a woman to be able to educate Tang Qinghuan, but Tang Zhengrong may have been harmed in other matters in the Duke of Tang's palace. From this point of view, he does not need to be too afraid.
"Reporting to your Majesty, your Majesty has the final say in everything regarding your affairs."
"I also know that the wrong things my wife and my daughter did were truly treacherous. I just ask that Your Majesty can leave their names."
After listening to the emperor's words, Tang Guogong knelt down and said shiveringly. He still couldn't ignore people who were related by blood. Tang Guogong also saw that the two of them were quite honest in front of the emperor.
Accounted for.
After all, to do these things under the eyes of Empress Dowager Xiao Shu and His Majesty, even if he has nine heads, it is not enough to cut him off.
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty. If Your Majesty is really angry, why not chop off my concubine's head?"
After hearing what Tang Guogong said, Tang Qinghuan and Yu, as people who knew nothing, naturally believed it to be true. Tang Qinghuan was dumbfounded. She never thought that she would end up doing these things. What's the truth?
Mrs. Yu also saw her daughter's fear. Although she did not want to die, she
"Ms. Yu, stop messing around!"
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Yu started to lose her temper again, and Tang Guogong scolded him angrily.
Seeing what was going on in the Duke of Tang's mansion, the emperor became interested.
"That's not necessary. On the contrary, the relationship between mother and daughter is not much different. Since we have admitted all our mistakes, there must be a punishment."
"It's just that if you deceive the emperor and ignore your superiors, you will implicate the nine tribes, and no one can escape."
"Thinking about it, you two also have to thank Tang Zhengrong and Liu. If Liu hadn't been favored by the Empress Dowager, I would have dealt with it as I should."
"Yes, yes! What your Majesty said is absolutely true!"
Listening to the emperor's words, how dare Tang Qinghuan and Yu dare to refute? It's not what people say.
As for this incident, they still wanted to thank Tang Zhengrong and Liu, so naturally they still felt unconvinced in their hearts.
"What does your Majesty mean?"
These words were only meant for the Yu family and Tang Qinghuan. Tang Guogong himself was so shocked that he broke into a cold sweat. According to the charge of deceiving the emperor, it was indeed the case. However, he only did his job conscientiously and did not show up for many years.
What a big surprise, looking at it this way, there is no need to talk about it.
"It's a coincidence that Madam Liu came to the palace today and told me that she wanted to see the Empress Dowager."
"It just so happens that Tang Qinghuan and Mrs. Yu are both here. Please tell the Empress Dowager exactly what you said here. The person who suffered is Mrs. Liu, and you two need her forgiveness after all."
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Liu would also be in the palace. Tang Qinghuan felt so hateful!
The front foot was rewarded by the Empress Dowager Xiao Shu, and the back foot went there to accept the crime. This is really ironic. Yu's pride was crushed by the emperor's order.
It was okay to keep low and do nothing in front of others, but Mrs. Yu originally looked down on Aunt Liu.
