So many people passed by on the road, which naturally attracted a lot of curious eyes. Fortunately, Zhu Houzhao did not wear a crown suit or a royal belt today, and she was wearing only the regular clothes of the group leader. Although it was strange, it made the people passing by just think that the young master from a wealthy family ran out.??

All the way to the research institute, although Zhu Houzhao was yawning, he was very excited. Ye Chunqiu rode his horse behind Zhu Houzhao, but his face was not relaxed. He knew that since they left the Forbidden City, his arrangement had already begun.

At this time, in Renshou Palace in the Forbidden City, Empress Dowager Zhang's personal husband waited until Prince Zhu Zaiyao had breakfast before he sent him to Zhanshi's house to study.

Empress Dowager Zhang is old and now she is no longer concerned about external affairs. Apart from worshiping Buddha in this palace every day, she only pays attention to this emperor and grandson at other times.

Today, I was about to go to Mingtang to listen to someone reading Buddhist scriptures. Before I left, an eunuch said, "Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager asks for a visit."

"Ah, why did she come?" Empress Dowager Zhang frowned slightly. Although she looked surprised, Empress Dowager Zhang knew the purpose of Empress Xia.

Although I don’t like to manage things anymore, why didn’t Empress Dowager Zhang know that King Xing recently sent two beauties. His Majesty was so happy that Empress Xia could sit still?

Look, it’s probably because Empress Xia couldn’t control His Majesty, but she wanted her mother to take care of her son.

In fact, Empress Dowager Zhang didn't like those two beauties very much, but Empress Dowager Zhang doted on her son. Sometimes, as long as Zhu Houzhao was happy, she would usually go with him.

Empress Dowager Zhang said, "Please come in."

Not long after, Empress Xia walked in, still dignified and decent, but her face was a little bad. She first bowed and said, "I have met my mother."

Queen Mother Zhang smiled and said, "You don't come often. I heard that you were sick a few days ago. Are you cured now? It's not bloody on her face yet, so you have to take good care of it!"

Queen Xia hurriedly said, "Thank you, my mother, for your concern, it's much better. I'm here to report something."

Empress Dowager Zhang glanced at Empress Xia meaningfully and said, "Tell me."

Empress Xia said, "In the past few days, Your Majesty's body has been much worse. I have come to the palace and dare not surpass the courtesy, let alone be that jealous woman. Your Majesty is the emperor and has three thousand beauties. It is natural that two women have recently come to the palace, and His Majesty's body..."

"Oh, are you talking about the two women who King Xing sent to the palace? The Ai family also heard about it. Your Majesty is indeed a little dissatisfied. Why, is Your Majesty's health unwell?"

When Empress Dowager Zhang heard about her son's physical problems, she became concerned about it.

Empress Xia said: "Eunuch Liu and his companions all reported to me that his Majesty's complexion has become worse. I am afraid that if this continues, this dragon body..."

When Empress Xia said this, Empress Dowager Zhang couldn't help but feel worried, and couldn't help but say, "The Ai family is too lazy to care about those two fox sages, but if they are ungrateful, the Ai family can't tolerate them."

Although this made Queen Xia feel a little more uncomfortable, Queen Xia thought to herself that although the mother could not tolerate them, she did not say anything at all. If His Majesty said something nice to him, I am afraid that this would be just a casual word, and there would probably be no real action.

This is the difference between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. For Queen Zhang, Zhu Houzhao is her son. Of course, the son can make trouble. Sometimes it is okay to let him do something he likes. Although sometimes he thinks that this matter is inappropriate, as long as it does not harm the son, he may not really ask anything. But for Queen Xia, it is a stake, and it is impossible to be careless.

Empress Xia said, "I beg my mother to come forward to deal with it myself."

Having said that, it made Empress Dowager Zhang embarrassed. Empress Dowager Zhang said, "If there is another next time, let's talk about it. When the emperor comes to greet you next time, the Ai family will talk about him very well."

This is quite perfunctory.

Empress Xia frowned and said, "Mother, the censors and officials outside are still talking nonstop, saying that His Majesty is content with these two women, so he doesn't think about the government."

"There is such a thing?" said Empress Dowager Zhang: "It seems that no matter how it is done."

It was still just thunder and no rain.

Empress Xia continued, "So, I dared to ask Duke Zhenguo."

When she heard the Duke of Zhenguo, Empress Dowager Zhang couldn't help but squint her eyes. She admired Ye Chunqiu quite a lot, and her two incompetent brothers were following Ye Chunqiucai. This was her godson. His opinion made Mr. Zhang interested, so he said, "What did he say?"

Empress Xia said: "Duke Zhenguo said that if you should be punished, you will suffer from chaos. Therefore, you must let me learn from my mistakes and think about the prince."

Speaking of the prince, Empress Dowager Zhang became solemn for a moment.

This means that these two women may affect the crown prince whom Empress Dowager Zhang’s favorite. If Empress Dowager Zhang is indifferent, it will be unreasonable.

Empress Dowager Zhang said: "So, there should be a way to learn from the pain, right?"

"Yes." Empress Xia said seriously: "I have already told Liu Jin to do it."

call……

Queen Mother Zhang suddenly understood.

Emperor Xia did not hope that he would make the decision, but out of respect, he would tell himself that everything would be handled properly.

Empress Dowager Zhang knew very well that the prince was his own interests, and Empress Xia was deeply loved by her. If she asked her to come forward in person, she would still think about delaying it and discuss it for a long time. After all, the emperor and the two women were as vague as glue. As a mother, they didn't care. Who knew when the novelty of His Majesty passed, and the matter would be settled. There was really no need to break the relationship between mother and son.

But since I just reported myself out of respect, how can I not support this verbally and spiritually?

Empress Dowager Zhang said: "The Ai family has always been at ease with the Spring and Autumn Period. As for Liu Jin, it is still appropriate to do things in normal times. To be honest, the Ai family has long been unable to stand those two women. Since you already have a strong opinion, you don't have to be afraid of anything."

"But..." Empress Dowager Zhang smiled and said, "If you do something without authorization, if Your Majesty knows, I'm afraid you're not good-looking, and you should think twice about everything."

This is a kind of honest warning. No one knows his son is better than his mother. Who is Zhu Houzhao? Will Empress Dowager Zhang not know?

When Zhu Houzhao knew about this, he would definitely be in a thunderous position! He really saw a ghost. At this time, Empress Xia, Ye Chunqiu, and Liu Jin seemed to be not afraid at all.
