"Okay!" The queen didn't want to listen to their useless disputes anymore, she wanted to know whether the old mother was dissatisfied with the majesty in her name, or whether the old mother or people from Cheng'en's mansion used the old mother Assassinate the prince with his hands, "The Ai family brought you here to pray for blessings, and now that things are almost done, it's time to go back to the palace."

"Go back to the palace?" Princess Ning Xin hasn't seen enough of Luo Xiyao's embarrassment, how can she go back willingly?The second emperor's wife said that in the evening, it is the time when there are the most refugees, "Mother, it is true that we come to the Taoist temple to pray for the country, but giving porridge is also very important! Giving porridge is a good deed, and it is also to let the people know that the royal family treats the country well. They love each other sincerely!"

The concubine said softly: "There are flags outside every porridge shed, not to mention that the servants who serve porridge in the porridge shed will also remind those who eat the porridge which family they enjoy the favor of. The queen mother brought us here to show our faces. What's more, we almost killed people just now, and when there are more refugees, it will not be easy for us to leave."

"That's right! Now the refugees know that the porridge at the congee shed of the emperor's wife is the best, and there are always people queuing up." The second princess said softly, "They are also pitiful. I don't know how long they have been hungry all the way to Beijing. Seeing If you eat enough, you can't wait to burst your belly. If you don't leave, you may not be able to leave if you treat more people, so why don't you be kind enough to do something bad?"

The concubine's face turned pale, and she didn't know what to say to refute. After all, the second concubine didn't add anything, and she was the one who listened to the old mother's words and was fooled!
Of course, she discussed with the prince when she asked people to prepare, but so what?If it is done well, it will be her to add glory to the prince and win face, if it is done wrong, it will be her incompetence.What's more, the queen is the prince's mother-in-law. As a daughter-in-law, she still has to say in front of her mother-in-law that she kisses her son?
With the queen around, the crown prince's position is as stable as Mount Tai.If the queen is not here...

Even if the crown princess takes all the faults on herself, she can't let the queen and prince be caught.

Ordinarily the empress should face the crown princess, Luo Xiyao glanced at the three mother-in-law, daughter-in-law, and sister-in-law Ning Xin, and laughed in her heart, the empress is the mother of a country, so she is so irresponsible.The princess concubine has a docile temperament, does not fight or grab things, and has a good family background. For the prince, she is a qualified and virtuous wife.Unfortunately, she has no children.

It would be difficult for a woman from an ordinary family to be childless for many years, let alone a princess?
The concubine has no children, and the prince has no sons. How can a prince with no successors be able to secure his position?

From Luo Xiyao's point of view, the prince does not have the courage to protect the princess against all opinions!

The queen is obviously not satisfied with the crown princess because of this, but it is a pity that she has to rely on the influence of the crown princess's mother's family, which makes the queen's attitude towards the crown princess vacillating and contradictory.

The second prince has the heart to seize the heir apparent, and the second prince is weak. If she doesn't devote herself wholeheartedly to the second prince, her position as the first concubine will not be secure.

So she seized the opportunity to step on the prince and princess.

On the contrary, Ning Xin is ambitious but not wise. Even the beloved daughter of the Eastern Qi Emperor will not be looked down upon by some people, and naturally she will not be feared by others. I can only say...she is lucky to be reincarnated.

But it was the queen who surprised Luo Xiyao the most.

The old nanny next to Empress Dowager Yang made a mistake. Going out of the palace to be honored and raised was just an excuse for Emperor Dongqi to save face for his mother, but she did not keep her law and kept her own. She falsely passed on the queen's oral order. The queen did not even mention such a crime of beheading .

What is she thinking?

Luo Xiyao even guessed whether the Empress had something to do with Empress Dowager Yang or Duke Cheng'en's mansion. Otherwise, why didn't she seize such a good opportunity and overturn the mountain that was pressing on her head in one fell swoop?
No matter what the queen thinks, this is an excellent opportunity for her.

"The refugees who came to Beijing first knew that there were noble people in Ganquan Temple to give porridge, so they must wait every day, so there are not many talents near Ziyun Temple." Luo Xiyao said, "The news among the people spread quickly Yes, Ganquan Temple is not far from here, and those who have not eaten enough in the porridge shed outside Ganquan Temple will definitely come to Ziyun Temple."

What Luo Xiyao meant was to persuade the Queen and the others to leave first, "Just now, someone got into a fight because someone jumped in line, and someone fell to the ground and was almost trampled... It's not a big deal, but if someone with a heart would If the exaggeration is spread, it will cast a shadow over the good deeds of the empress. Therefore, I think what the crown princess said is right, the empress has demonstrated the benevolence of the royal family, so it is better to leave now."

Worried that they would not listen, Luo Xiyao even threatened, "Besides, when the workers and those who went to the mountains to find food come back, there will be at least twice as many refugees as there are now. What happens when there are more people?"

The queen's eyes were dark, and she had obviously made a decision, "Go back to the palace."

The second concubine was originally here to fish in troubled waters, and it doesn't matter if she doesn't go back, and the queen is in a bad mood at the moment, so she doesn't want to mess with the queen anymore, "Sister Ning Xin, let's go and make arrangements for the porridge shed before we go with the queen." Go back to the palace."

I can't see Luo Xiyao making a fool of herself!Ning Xin stomped her feet and went out with the second wife of the emperor unwillingly, thinking that she must go to the emperor's grandmother and father to sue her severely.

After the crown princess came out, she looked at Luo Xiyao with some doubts, "Why did Miss Nine help me?"

Luo Xiyao said: "Giving out porridge is not something that can be done in a day or two. You can see that the disaster situation in various places is very serious by looking at the behavior of the empress. Your Majesty's orders are sent out to the capital every day, and imperial envoys from the six departments are also sent out to check every day. Due to the disasters in various places, the Governor of Kyoto made people spend their energy to patrol the streets, but there are still beggars in the middle of Beijing, and the number of refugees in the suburbs of Beijing is increasing day by day. Your Majesty ordered the porridge sheds to be built in Ganquan Temple and Ziyun Temple, so what? It is not to provide a stable place for the refugees. Incense is flourishing here all year round, and the spacious door allows the refugees not only to have a place to stay, but also to rely on the mountains. Where there are mountains, there are mountain products, and those who are diligent and strong can find rations. "

The Crown Princess didn't know what she was going to say, but she was very patient, "You want to say that the disaster won't end easily, and the food for the refugees..." She also knew that the disaster was serious, and if it continued like this, she would be emptying her family It's not enough to keep giving relief.The old mother instigated her, and she fell for the trick. Even if the queen mother sought justice from the imperial grandmother, she would not be able to get rid of the charge of negligence.

Even if she doesn't have a deep friendship with Luo Xiyao, the princess also knows Luo Xiyao's style of life, not to mention from Luo Xiyao's standpoint, it's good that she doesn't hate the royal family, she doesn't like it at all.

If something happened to them outside Ziyun Temple, not only would it not be a loss to Luo Xiyao, but it would be a blessing instead.

What an opportunity!
Why did Luo Xiyao persuade them to leave?
The Crown Princess is not someone who likes to get to the bottom of things. After all, it is not difficult to get confused. Her life has no hope, as if she can see old age at a glance, but she really can't figure out Luo Xiyao's pulse. She is worried that she will help her to get her More.
