Luo Xiyao squeezed out a smile, "Your Majesty, Jiu Niang really doesn't know the answer to the question you asked, so how do you answer it? You don't believe that Jiu Niang has answered. If Jiu Niang doesn't reply, you feel that Jiu Niang is deliberately hiding it. Jiu Niang Mother can only remain silent!"

With a "snap", Emperor Dongqi's jade finger knocked on the table, Luo Xiyao was so frightened that she slipped and knelt down, her posture was very regular, "Your Majesty..."

At this moment, Eunuch Luo's voice came from outside, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager is here."

"Get out of the way!" Empress Dowager Yang stood outside with the old mother, and said to the flattering Luo Ping, "Aren't you going to open the door to Ai's house?"

"I have met the empress dowager, and the empress dowager is blessed and safe." Luo Ping greeted loudly, "Your Majesty is in the imperial study, please wait a moment, the empress dowager, the slave will go..."

The old mother walked over and pushed Luo Ping away, walked a few steps outside the door of the imperial study, knelt down and said: "The old mother of Ci'an Palace begs to see Your Majesty on behalf of the empress dowager!"

"Squeak-"

The door of the imperial study room opened, and the sunlight came in, shining on Luo Xiyao's face.

Luo Xiyao looked down at the old nanny. She hadn't forgotten that when she was in the paddock, the old nanny contributed to the ginseng change and added insult to injury, "Old nanny in Ci'an Palace? It turns out that the slaves have served the master for a long time, so they can replace the ginseng." The master has acted, and I have little experience. Since the old mother can beg to see His Majesty on behalf of the empress dowager, please do so!"

The blood color faded from the old mother's old face, her body trembled slightly, and she said loudly: "This slave is guilty—"

"Hmph!" Empress Dowager Yang stretched out her hand again for the old mother to help, and when she passed Luo Xiyao, she raised her eyebrows triumphantly.

She chuckled and said: "In the past, Jiuniang always couldn't figure it out. It's easy to say that the big shop bully the customers, but why there are slaves who bully the master? Now I can see that the slaves are used to doing wrong things because of the master. Confidence! Empress Dowager, Jiu Niang speaks frankly, and asks Empress Dowager for forgiveness if there is something offensive in her words. However, if there are some words that will anger Empress Dowager, Jiu Niang has to say them."

Luo Xiyao asked loudly: "Come on! The Empress Dowager is going to see Your Majesty, the old mother can always answer my questions, right? The old mother came here in a hurry to serve the Empress Dowager, why is it?"

Seeing this scene, Luo Xiyao didn't understand why, it was just an old dog supporting an old fox, and Emperor Dongqi didn't do anything to her, would she be afraid of these two old wives?joke!

"You must not dare." Luo Xiyao rolled her eyes and smiled angrily, she turned sideways and saluted, "Please, Empress Dowager."

The old mother stretched out her hands respectfully, and when Empress Dowager Yang put on her hand with gold finger guards inlaid with red and blue agates, she slowly got up, bowed and stood beside Empress Dowager Yang, "Thank you, Empress Dowager, for your love. .”

"A servant dares to ask His Majesty to see His Majesty instead of the master. Is it out of order, or is it too long? Or...does not take His Majesty seriously and wants to rebel?"

"The old slave dare not." The old mother knelt down again, "The old slave is a slave, no matter which master the old slave serves, there is no doubt about it. If you have any questions, you can ask the old slave. It's just that your majesty has always been filial. , His Majesty is busy with government affairs, and he didn't know the arrival of the Empress Dowager. The Nine Girls stopped the Empress Dowager behind His Majesty's back. Wouldn't it be that His Majesty was being unfilial? It's true that the Nine Girls are high, but can you really make decisions on behalf of Your Majesty?"

"Empress Dowager." The old mother bowed her head and said, "It's important for you to meet His Majesty."

"The Empress Dowager, don't be in a hurry to get angry, and don't be in a hurry to defend an old slave who doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth." Luo Xiyao mocked: "According to the Empress Dowager's wishes, the old mother can beg to see Your Majesty on your behalf if she has meritorious service. In that day, can I also ask His Majesty on behalf of the Empress Dowager to ask for official positions and property? No matter how greedy the heart is, it cannot be achieved overnight, and greed is brought up little by little! The old mother and an old slave can replace the Empress Dowager , then Jiuniang, as His Majesty bestowed Helan Linzhang, the Seventh King of Mobei, as his official wife, and married for Dongqi and Mobei peace, can she act on behalf of His Majesty?"

Thinking of the purpose of this trip, Queen Mother Yang glared at Luo Xiyao, thinking that this witch must have done what happened to Xiao Er, otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that she would have to hold her back and prevent her from meeting the emperor?
She can't be fooled!
Thinking of this, Empress Dowager Yang took a deep look at the old mother, and let the other maids help her in hastily.

"Beating a dog depends on the authenticity of the owner, but if a dog is more noble than a family member, wouldn't it be ridiculous?"

Luo Xiyao suddenly stretched out her hand, "The empress dowager can enter the imperial study to meet her majesty, but the old mother cannot."

"Get up!" Empress Dowager Yang climbed up the steps, and the golden phoenix tail on her skirt brushed the old mother's hand, "You are the mother of Ci'an Palace, the maidservant of the Ai family, you go out with the Ai family, If you don't speak out for Aijia, is it possible that Aijia will come to everything?"

She raised her chin high, her eyes full of contempt, "How can you say that Jiu Niang's identity is a hundred times more noble than the old mother, right? What do you think of the empress dowager?"

"Your Majesty is the Lord of the Eastern Qi Dynasty, and the Empress, as His Majesty's main wife, manages the harem and is the lord of the harem. Mothers are more expensive than their children, and the Empress Dowager is the most honorable woman in the Eastern Qi Dynasty by doing nothing if she has Her Majesty as her son. Yours Every move, every word and deed, not only represents the lineage of the Yang family of Cheng Engong Mansion, but also represents His Majesty and Empress Empress, because they are your son and daughter-in-law. You let your servants override the imperial power, how will the people of the world think of Your Majesty? "

"you!"

Luo Xiyao ignored Empress Dowager Yang's pale face with anger, and continued: "Since you are asking Your Majesty on behalf of the Empress Dowager, I will ask you on behalf of Your Majesty! You can't let His Majesty come back to you in person, right? If His Majesty dares to Come on, do you dare to listen?"

Coincidentally, as soon as she finished speaking, she heard Empress Dowager Yang weeping, crying that the second prince was suffering outside, and his life was about to die...

Even if the old mama said that she didn't know, she couldn't do it at this time, she could only whisper: "The empress dowager is worried about the second prince, so she asked the old slave to serve her and come to the imperial study to meet your majesty."

"The Second Prince's punishment was ordered by His Majesty. No one in Beijing knows about it. The Empress Dowager spends her days in Ci'an Palace, how can she know about the affairs of the Second Prince's House? Could it be... someone in the Second Prince's House resisted the order and sneaked in Ci'an Palace? Old mother, as the empress dowager's confidant, the empress dowager always brought you with her when she came to see her majesty, you are fully aware of this matter if you want to come here?" Luo Xiyao's eyes showed a sharp edge, and she asked coldly: "Who is it?"

The old nanny choked, Luo Xiyao dared to ask openly, but she didn't dare to answer.It was not a secret that the second princess asked for help at the gate of the palace, and it was not a secret that she brought the news into Ci'an Palace.Is the Second Prince His Majesty's own son, or His Majesty's beloved son for so many years? The Second Prince's House has something to ask, who can refuse to help?But there are some things that can be done but cannot be said. If you say it, you will disobey the order and disrespect your Majesty!

Not to mention the old mother, at this time, Empress Dowager Yang was also scratching her toes, holding the handkerchief and wondering whether to continue crying.
