Chapter 514 Saying a Fair Word
"What the Empress Dowager said, I'm sorry I can't agree with it."

"Oh?"

Facing the mocking eyes of the Queen Mother, Zhao Xi smiled slightly, and responded lightly: "Everyone has their own needs. Some people live for a word of love, some people live for a word of righteousness, and some live for merit and Fame, for money, for profit, and so on, are nothing but human aspirations, how can they be measured by whether they are worthwhile or not?"

"You..." The Empress Dowager's smile froze immediately.

The rest of the Zhao family were also frightened and didn't recover for a moment.

How dare this sister Wei dare to refute so much in front of the Queen Mother?
But the emperor nodded: "That's right, what the Crown Princess said is good!"

Zhao Xi smiled again, and continued: "Could it be said that those who pursue fame and wealth are more worthy than those who value love and righteousness? If so, how can there be stories about Jingwei filling the sea and Yugong moving mountains? What is the significance of the allusions of Zhu and Boya Juexian?"

The queen mother just wanted to take the opportunity to ridicule a few words, but she didn't expect to be refuted by her citing scriptures, and immediately an unknown fire came up, and she sneered: "What do you mean by saying so many useless things to the Ai family? "

"It's nothing interesting." Zhao Xi pursed his lips and smiled, and blessed another one very respectfully: "I just want to speak a word of justice for those women who value love and righteousness - how unfair is the suffering of women in this world, The most are those infatuated women. Because they were too affectionate, they ended up in a bleak end, so they have been ridiculed and looked down upon by the world. However, the concubine believes that this is not their fault, but those ruthless men It’s my fault. People in the world don’t care about that heartless guy, but they like to grab a weak woman and beat them endlessly. Isn’t this because she is soft and fears hard, helping the evildoers?”

She straightened her back, her eyes were calm, and she said calmly: "If it is a fault to value love and righteousness, and if everyone is greedy for power and profit, then who else in this court will be loyal to the emperor and patriotic? Now, who else can serve the public wholeheartedly?"

"You—" The empress dowager who stirred up the situation in the court and always refused to give in to men, could only stare at such a delicate and weak girl for the first time.

"Wei'er!" Zhao Ziyi raised her heart in her throat and called out in a low voice.

Zhao Xi smiled at him slightly, his voice was still so gentle, and his expression was still so calm, but the words he said became sharper and more piercing: "The world confuses black and white, and is too tolerant to the heartless and ungrateful. People who value love and righteousness are too cruel, in order to cover up their treacherous behavior, they just talk about whether it is worth it or not to cover up their embarrassment!"

"Zhao Xiwei!" The queen mother slapped her palm on Eunuch Chang's arm, furious: "Do you know what you are talking about? Do you know that your death is imminent?"

"The empress dowager, don't worry!" Zhao Xiwei didn't change his expression at all, he just took half a step back calmly, in case the empress dowager suddenly attacked - the words must have the upper hand, and the body can't suffer in vain.

She stood obliquely away from the emperor, even if the queen mother wanted to kick her, she had to consider whether it would hurt the emperor.

The queen mother can be considered an old fox, how can she not understand?
So he was so angry that he retracted his palm fiercely, and the long armor pinched into Chang Ying's arm, causing him to "hiss" in pain. Before he could catch his breath, the Queen Mother kicked hard again. Just kicked him on the leg: "Shut up!"

"Yes..." Chang Ying gritted her teeth knowingly with an aggrieved expression on her face.

Zhao Xi glanced at the queen mother with a smile, then at the emperor, and said in a calm manner: "If you dare to ask the empress dowager, or your majesty the emperor, is it a person who is ruthless and ungrateful and worthy of your trust, or a person who values ​​love and righteousness?" worthy of your trust?"

The Empress Dowager's anger has reached its peak.

Originally, I wanted to watch a good show and see how this country girl died, but I didn't expect to be humiliated by her in public!
"You, you, you—" She was so angry that her lips were purple.

Zhao Xiwei knew that today's matter would not end so easily, so he simply let go of his temper and chose to strike first: "The empress dowager is so excited, do you think my concubine's words are very reasonable?"

Before the Queen Mother could speak, the corners of her lips curled up again, and she smiled brightly and innocently: "I also think that I am very reasonable!"

"You you you!" The queen mother had never been so angry in her life.

Even that disobedient and unfilial little wolf cub of the crown prince would go straight to the point and end the matter with a few words. How could there ever be such a time when he beat around the bush and scolded others?
She was very angry, but it was not easy to attack.

After all, Zhao Xiwei's well-founded words have already firmly occupied the moral high ground - if you turn your face for this, you are telling the world that the Queen Mother likes heartless and ungrateful people, and the Queen Mother doesn't like loyal people. people!
The war of words between women is more important, or the word-of-mouth among subjects, and she is not an idiot, so how could she not be able to tell the difference?How could someone take advantage of this loophole?
He just gritted his teeth and continued to pinch Chang Ying's arm fiercely.

Poor Chang Ying no longer had the arrogance and prestige before, her mouth twitched in pain, but she didn't dare to make a sound.

Zhao Xiwei folded his hands on his waist, and saluted gracefully and respectfully, with an extremely well-behaved and blameless attitude: "I understand what the empress dowager thinks. I must be diligent and self-motivated in the future, and be a kind and righteous person." Daughter-in-law, I will definitely live up to your old man's trust!"

After a while of dizziness, the queen mother almost fainted.

He quickly pinched Chang Ying again, until he felt the pain from the root of the nail, and then he turned around a little bit.

She is also old and confused, today is to see a joke!
How could she forget the business after being provoked by this cheap girl's few words!

Ah!
Fighting with her is still tender!
"Very good!" The Empress Dowager suppressed the roiling anger in her heart, and sneered, "It's really good for the Crown Princess to have such filial piety!" She gritted her back molars fiercely, and said every word: " So, the princess drank this glass of wine first?"

Why did you bring the topic back?

Zhao Ziyi frowned, before she cupped her hands and was about to speak——

"The emperor's grandmother has an order, how dare the granddaughter-in-law refuse to obey?" Zhao Xiwei answered the words first on the other side.

"Wei'er!" Zhao Ziyi was so anxious that he turned his wheelchair around, "This wine..."

Zhao Xi looked slightly at the sky, then at the roof.

Just when the Queen Mother was waiting for someone to come, Yuan Ce and others who were secretly lurking on the roof disappeared.

Counting the time, His Royal Highness should be here, right?
Although she didn't know what secret past was hidden behind the wine, she believed in Li Xuanye for no reason.

He is smart and sharp, calm and calm, and will not make impulsive decisions.

Most importantly, he said he would protect her.

However, she didn't have to ask him to appear!

Without him, she also has a way to protect herself...
