Datang Longya

Chapter 596 The Sad Queen

Because of this, although knowing that the emperor was wrong would cause bad influence, none of Fang Xuanling and others were willing to enter the palace to persuade the emperor.

I'm afraid of getting moldy!

When everyone was thinking hard about the countermeasures, Lao Yuan ran upstairs in a panic, and whispered into Leng Feng's ear, "Master, the queen is here, and I told this old slave to meet you and Duke Zhao in secret."

"What?"

Leng Feng shook his hand, and the cup almost fell under the table.

The queen is here?

What is the queen doing in the downstairs at this time?
He looked at Changsun Wuji and gave him a wink.

Changsun Wuji: "???"

Seeing that Leng Feng got up and left with the excuse of going to the bathroom, Changsun Wuji also got up with the excuse of leaving. Although he didn't know what Leng Feng asked him to do, he still decided to follow and have a look.

Old Yuan led Leng Feng and Changsun Wuji through the back kitchen to the grass in the backyard.

When passing by the back kitchen, Changsun Wuji took a special look.

The walls of the back kitchen in Tianxialou are all covered with ceramic cubes, which looks very neat and tidy, which is completely different from the messy back kitchens of other taverns.

Walking out of the back kitchen, Leng Feng saw the queen in normal clothes and a conical hat.

Changsun Wuji also saw her. Although he didn't know who he was seeing, and the conical hat blocked most of her appearance, Changsun Wuji recognized his own sister immediately.

"Queen, why did you come to our Tianxia Building? You still meet like this?"

It was hard for Leng Feng to imagine how the Queen chose to meet here despite the environment of killing pigs and ducks in the backyard.

The queen took off her cone hat and sighed: "The Tianxia Building is full of courtiers, if we don't meet here, how can we meet?"

After finishing speaking, the queen looked at her eldest grandson Wuji: "Is your brother in good health recently?"

When getting along in private, Empress Changsun would not act like an empress to her elder brother and other relatives.

Changsun Wuji nodded: "It's okay, but if you are the emperor's lobbyist, then I might be in trouble!"

In the morning, the Dachaohui just had an unpleasant dispute with the emperor, and now his queen sister is here, and it is obvious what she is doing.

The queen also understood that her elder brother was a smart person, so she must have guessed her reason for coming, so she simply said directly: "Brother, now the whole government and the people are enemies with His Majesty, as his old bosom friend, why don't you help him?" What? Even if you just stand by his side to help him relieve the pressure!"

Maybe it was because of drinking, Changsun Wuji snorted coldly: "Sure enough, it was the water poured out by the married girl! It really came to help you talk to the emperor's husband! Standing beside him? What should we do if it is implemented? You know where Zhaozhou is, and what will the Changsun family develop in Zhaozhou? You are also a member of the Changsun family, so don’t you know how to think about the Changsun family? "

The queen didn't expect her brother to be so unreasonable, so she said: "Brother, I didn't let you."

Changsun Wuji waved his hand: "You don't need to say more, empress, I still have entertainment, so I won't accompany you any longer. Let me go!"

After handcuffing, Changsun Wuji staggered back to Tianxialou, leaving the shocked empress alone.

What did she hear?Empress?minister?

This is what the brothers and sisters said in private!

Leng Feng was also a little shocked, Changsun Wuji said this, it was obvious that he was going to confront the emperor to the end, even if his own sister talked, it would not work.

The queen choked twice, held back her tears, and looked at Leng Feng again: "Duke Xi, you know that I'm not here to be a lobbyist for His Majesty, I'm just."

Leng Feng nodded: "I understand what you mean, you just don't want the emperor to lose too badly in this game of monarch and minister, but, when it comes to Tang's system issues, you can't stand on the wrong team just because you don't have face!

What's more, have you ever thought about what kind of pressure I or Zhao Guogong will receive if we stand on the emperor's side? "

Now that the officials are working together to fight against the emperor, if two people leave the big team and help the emperor instead, they will be labeled as "fools on the wall", or even worse, labeled as "the emperor's dog legs".

The whole court!What kind of pressure was that? No one in this world dared to try to resist it except the emperor.

The queen sighed: "How can I not know, but"

Seeing the Queen's appearance, Leng Feng couldn't help but said: "This matter is not something you should get involved in. It's better for you to avoid it. No matter which side wins, your situation will not be good!"

"The harem does not interfere in politics", this is an ancient commandment, if it is mixed into this matter, it will not benefit the queen at all.

Seeing that Leng Feng also stood firm, the Queen had no choice but to say goodbye and leave.

As Leng Feng said, no matter who wins, it's not good for her!

The palace is like a ghost town, even the eunuchs and maids can't wait to walk on tiptoe.As usual, the emperor's anger must have affected others.

The queen returned to Liangyi Hall, where the emperor was waiting for her.

Looking at the eunuchs around the emperor who didn't dare to show their anger, the queen asked, "Are you punishing a servant again?"

Li Shimin, who was sitting at the table and picking up peanuts with chopsticks, nodded, "They're all a bunch of clumsy people. They can spill out a plate of peanuts. I don't know there are so few of them!"

After finishing speaking, he glanced at the queen again: "What does Wuji say?"

The queen just shook her head.

Li Shimin poked his chopsticks into the plate, stood up and stretched, and said with a long sigh of relief: "I still have government affairs, and I may have to stay all night tonight, so I won't stay with you overnight, so as not to disturb you, go to bed early!"

Seeing the back of the emperor leaving, the empress couldn't hold back her tears and fell down.

The two have known each other for many years, how could she not understand the emperor's character, the calmer he was, the angrier he would be.

As for telling her to go to bed early
Didn't he also sleep with her when he stayed up all night?What's with this polite unfamiliarity?

Cuiyan, the palace maid behind the queen, saw the queen crying, and couldn't help but said: "Empress, don't be sad, your majesty is just angry."

Are you angry?No matter how angry you are, you shouldn't have said such things to her!

The queen wiped away her tears and said: "I'm fine, I'll go back and get ready. I'm going to Jiucheng Palace to escape the summer heat."

Cui Yan asked suspiciously: "Empress Empress, why don't you wait for Your Majesty to come with you?"

Usually, the emperor and the empress would go to Jiucheng Palace to escape the summer heat, and with the addition of Jinglei’s ice, these years, unless it was really hot, it was rare to go to Jiucheng Palace to escape the summer heat.

The queen nodded: "Don't wait, let's go!"

On one side is her own brother, on the other side is her husband, and now the two sides are against each other, and they both have prejudices against her, who is caught in the middle, what can she do?
Instead of staying in Chang'an to suffer anger, it is better to leave and go to Jiucheng Palace to escape the summer heat, and still have a quiet time!
