"Eunuch Cao, I didn't say anything. Someone must have slandered me!" Wang Cairen pulled Cao Tai and said excitedly, "Who is it, who is framed me behind the scenes? Eunuch Cao, tell me..."

Cao Tai said without changing his expression: "You have to calm down first and think about it carefully. I will come to see you in a few days."

"Wang Cairen, let's go." The eunuch next to him raised the baggage that was thrown to the ground. Another person lifted Wang Cairen and lifted her into a door.

Wang Cairen walked through the long corridor and then saw the garden of Wanfu Palace. Compared with other places, there were some old trees here, but there were floor tiles between the trunks, and there were no other plants except trees. So even the garden looked monotonous and lifeless. There were high red walls around, so they could not even see outside.

It was in this radius, and it was difficult for those who came in to get out, and Wang Cairen only felt heavy steps.

After a while, the eunuch took her to a big house in front. The eunuch said, "The person in charge of the Taihuang and Taigui Concubine here. Sometimes the miscellaneous family handed you over to her. From now on, you will listen to her."

The Taihuang and Taigui Concubine... should be Taizu's concubine, the current emperor's grandmother generation. Wang Cairen had never seen her before. In her panic, she was frightened and upset, and her mind looked like an old woman with all white hair.

She entered a hall and saw a group of women sitting on stools doing needlework. They found that someone came in, looked up one after another, ignored it and continued to work. The women were dull and had no fun, and they were very slow in stitching... Wang Cairen felt that they were not working, but grinding time.

"Pu!" Wang Cairen thought that he would spend the rest of his life like this, and his legs became weak and he actually sat on the ground. She no longer cared about her face and grabbed the eunuch's leg and said, "You let me go out... I don't want to be here. If you ask Eunuch Cao to help me plead, I will never forget the great kindness..."

The eunuch said: "Wang Cairen, you are the last emperor's person and should have been here, otherwise where else can you go?"

At this moment, a voice said, "There is nothing bad here, there is food and clothing, but it's a little boring. I'll get used to it after a while."

When Wang Cairen looked up, he saw a woman in a wide robe walking out from behind. She was stunned for a moment, not knowing who it was. The eunuch then said, "Greetings to the Taihuang and the Concubine, I was ordered to bring people over and I will give them to you."

The emperor and the imperial concubine? Wang Cairen was stunned for a moment, because the woman he saw in front of him was too young and might be younger than him!

Her face is beautiful and looks a little petite, but she is wearing such a wide robe. Perhaps in order to increase her calm momentum, she makes her figure look even more petite. This kind of woman does not look older and looks younger than her actual age. Perhaps she is at least in her twenties, but she looks like a teenage girl.

Wang Cairen came to his senses. It was only eight years since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Even Taizu's concubine could not be an old woman. This Taihuang Taigui concubine seemed to be the surname Zhang, and was a concubine that Guo Wei had only favored after becoming emperor. Guo Wei was thinking about his deceased wife, and he was posthumously named Empress, and never made an Empress in his life. Zhang's ability to be a concubine should be favored by her beauty. It is impossible for her to be too old by her beauty. Therefore, the grandmother generation that Wang Cairen saw now was a young woman.

Zhang said: "Stay behind and she will get used to it after a while."

The eunuch was also polite and bowed and said, "I will surrender."

"Please stay, father-in-law." Zhang said, "Ai's family has eaten vegetarian food and chanted Buddha's name here. They have long been clear about their hearts and few desires, and only one relative is concerned about it. Ai's family wrote a letter to tell him that Ai's family is good in the palace. Can you please help Ai's family find someone to send it out?"

The eunuch hesitated for a moment and stepped forward and continued: "I will do my best... I have to ask Eunuch Cao first. If it is inappropriate, I will send it back to you."

"I'm working." Zhang looked slightly sideways. A woman next to her walked up and said politely: "Please, father-in-law, I'll take you to the eldest lady."

The eunuch refused but quietly collected some money, so the letter came to Cao Tai.

Cao Tai was in front of the talisman of Wansui Hall, "People in Wanfu Palace are generally ignored, and most of them are concubines of the two immortal kings. According to the rules of all dynasties, they either buried with their wives or went to the temple to become monks. They could not be released to insult their ancestors. I was more trouble-free and rushed to Wanfu Palace, giving them some money and helping them make something in the palace."

Fu Jinzhan nodded slightly. The widows of ordinary families in the world can remarry, let alone be the concubine of the official wife, but the royal family cannot.

Cao Tai held the letter that had been opened in both hands: "But, I have to ask the Queen Mother after thinking about it... She is the aunt of the military general Cao Bin. Cao Bin is a filial son and respects him very much. She is now leading troops on the front line."

Fu Jinzhan said: "I remember that last year, someone sent to the State of Wu Yue was Cao Bin."

"Yes." Cao Tai bowed and replied, "And the letter was written very cleverly. I have read it carefully. Empress Zhang praised the Queen Mother for treating her well and asking Cao Bin to be loyal to the country."

Fu Jinzhan laughed and said, "I have ignored her. She is quite good at being a human being. But I can't let her go. Then isn't she my elder?"

"That's, that's..." Cao Tai seemed to stop talking.

Fu Jinzhan glanced at him and suddenly realized that his red lips opened slightly. In this world, not only Fu Jinzhan was afraid of chaos, but other women were also afraid of it. Zhang had been staying in Wanfu Palace for so long, and now he was thinking about protecting himself.

"Send it out to Cao Bin for her." Fu Jinzhan said, "In addition, the person who asked the sender to tell him that Concubine Zhang got along well with me in the palace."

"Here." Cao Bin carefully put away the letter.

Fu Jinzhan stood up and left Yudai, walked to the wall, stood in front of the window and watched the scenery outside. The Wansui Palace was built on a high platform. From here, you can see a large tiled roof of the palace. She felt that everything was a bit ethereal. This imperial city was too big, and she felt a little frightened in her heart.

...A few days later, Fu Jinzhan reviewed the memorial in Jinxiang Hall. Cao Tai came to report that Zuo You, Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, returned to Tokyo.

She immediately summoned Zuo You alone in the study next to her, and naturally asked whether Guo Shao was deploying a mutiny.

Zuo You said vaguely: "There are many generals who advised him to advance."

Fu Jinzhan couldn't help but ridiculed Zuo You: "General Guo has fought so many battles, and his prestige in the army can't even restrain his generals even if such a serious matter?"

Zuo You couldn't answer, and at this moment, he said, "General Guo Yan, even if he was supported by others in his helplessness, he would not change the name of the Great Zhou Kingdom. He said that his great-grandfather was my grandfather of the Grandpa, and he was just guarding the country and had no intention of seizing it."

Fu Jinzhan was stunned. Even though there were thousands of considerations about this matter, Fu Jinzhan still understood the connection between it at once: if she did not change her country name, she would still be the queen mother, not the deposed queen mother of the previous dynasty.

What kind of kinship do Guo Shao, a man who started his family, have any relatives with Taizu? Fu Jinzhan didn't believe it at all. If there were, he would have said a long time ago, why should he be a guard or a small guard for a long time? It was not difficult for the royal relatives to find an official position at the beginning. As the founding emperor, in addition to his reputation behind him, the most important thing is to glorify his ancestors.

Fu Jinzhan couldn't help but think: In order for me to have a legitimate identity, he ignored the ancestors of the Guo family?

The status of the ancestors, a woman, usually how to choose between the two sides. And she can only choose one, Fu Jinzhan did not come up with a solution to both sides... If she became the queen mother of the previous dynasty, she would inevitably lose all her dignity and status, and Guo Shao could no longer give her a true honor; for example, if she was re-appointed as a concubine, she would be ridiculed by the world without shame, nor would she face the people around her, including relatives, palace ladies, and subjects. The queen mother of this dynasty was different, and rumors and conclusive facts were very different after all.

At this time, Fu Jinzhan suddenly remembered what Guo Shao said after the Tokyo Mutiny: No matter how many times you have married, what your identity or what you look like, it cannot stop my heart. In this world, you are better than everyone in my heart, including my parents...

It's so inconspicuous. He can say such words, even filial piety, and he is indeed a traitor. Fu Jinzan's eyes flashed with water in the sunlight, pursed her red lips, and gritted her teeth to stabilize her appearance.

Of course, Zuo You didn't dare to look up at the empress dowager, otherwise he would feel something was wrong.

He said in a deep voice: "The Empress Dowager is still the Empress Dowager, and your sister will even be named the Empress. The status of the Fu family and the Empress Dowager will not be harmed..."

This man is so stupid, Fu Jinzhan held back her tears. He also told me seriously what benefits he had, and didn't look at the vast power of the imperial city and the vastness of the world. For just a little benefit, I am really willing to give up my righteousness and duty so easily?

"Ai... I know." As soon as Fu Jinzhan spoke, she found that her voice was a little choked and she was unwilling to say more.

Zuo You stood up for a while, but didn't hear the Queen Mother ask more questions. He seemed unwilling to say too much, so he said, "If the Queen Mother asks nothing else, I will leave first."

Fu Jinzhan raised her robe sleeve and waved her words without saying a word. Zuo You then stepped backwards towards the door.

Fu Jinzhan sat on the top of the slum for a long time, and finally restrained her emotions. After a while, the eunuch Cao Tai entered and saw the empress dowager sitting in the upper position, with a bad expression. Cao Tai didn't say anything, but walked up bent down, bowed and stood beside him.

"Cao Tai." Fu Jinzhan said, her voice had returned to normal, and was even a little cold.

Cao Tai hurriedly said, "I am here, the Queen Mother, please give me instructions."

Fu Jinzhan said: "Go and sort out the recent defense maps of the Tokyo access guards and the list of military generals."

Cao Tai didn't ask at all and answered directly: "Here."

Fu Jinzhan said again: "You are ready, the Ai family may have something to send you to do."
