Chapter Nine, The Empress Dowager's Making things difficult.
Rui was reviewing a mountain of memorials on the table. Sometimes he frowned. Sheng Sheng knew that some ministers must be deliberately making things difficult for Rui.
Rui couldn't help but poke his little head over, and looked at Shengsheng without saying anything.
"What's wrong? Where is the earthquake?" Sheng Sheng asked curiously.
Rui touched her little head: "It's from the Dongxuan Territory. There are many mountains and water there. It rained a few days ago and there were floods. There has been an earthquake in the past few days, and the aftershocks continue. The rocks are loose and rolling down the mountains.
.The houses of the common people were smashed. Some were directly smashed to death. This caused a large number of victims to flood into [Yinlong City] to steal and rob."
Sheng Sheng thought for a moment, walked to the marble floor on one side, squatted down, and held his head with his little hands.
"The Queen Mother has arrived." While both of them were deep in thought, a sound of "Duck Sang" interrupted their thoughts.
A woman in her forties walked in, elegant and elegant. There were almost no wrinkles on her face.
"Don't the emperor know? The harem is not allowed to participate in politics. Why do you still go to the queen to handle the memorial?" the queen mother asked seriously.
Rui just said hello and didn't say anything else.
"The Ai family is asking about you." The Queen Mother glanced at Sheng Sheng sternly, and Sheng Sheng trembled.
"Mother, my sons and ministers only work here, and the queen has not participated in politics." She was still as cold as ever, but there was a hint of gentleness in her eyes when she looked at Sheng Sheng.
Sheng Sheng: "Queen Mother, I'm just staying here." He just went over to take a look.
Queen Mother: "Honestly? Not necessarily. Why don't you go and pay your respects to the Ai family? Does the Ai family need to hire a nanny to teach you these basic etiquettes?"
When Sheng Sheng saw that the Queen Mother was deliberately looking for trouble, she immediately became rude.
"Why should I pay my respects to you, Mao? Who are you to me? We are neither relatives nor friends." Sheng Sheng said with a half-smile.
"You've rebelled against the will of heaven, so why don't you, Emperor, take care of me?"
The Queen Mother was so angry that her face turned green,
Rui was reviewing this. "She is indeed the woman I like. She is courageous and dares to challenge the Queen Mother."
Sheng Sheng: "Oh, Queen Mother, don't be angry. It won't be good if your old arms and legs fall down if you get angry." Women in the harem are most afraid of others saying that they are old. Hehe,,,
"You are lawless! Come here." The Queen Mother was angry. A group of guards behind her immediately stood up.
Rui: "Everyone, please step aside." The faint voice was so majestic that no one dared to take a breath.
