Empress Dowager Guide

Chapter 108 Attack, Empress Dowager!
"Can this work?" Sheng Shaoqing was still more worried that there would be another incident in the Shang Palace Bureau.

"After this incident, I thought that no one would dare to cause trouble again." Cui Yun said firmly, "If there are people who dare to frame others for the sake of superiority, what will happen to Liu Sizhi will be a lesson for them."

"Then, do you think that the Ai family's handling of this is a contempt for Liu Sizhi?"

Cui Yun shook her head and said, "Liu Sizhi is so proud and arrogant that he definitely doesn't want to live under others for a long time. To her, this kind of punishment is actually no different from whipping. I hope she can really change her ways."

"Then do you think Liu Sizhi is pitiful?" Sheng Shaoqing asked softly, and then added, "I don't sympathize with her, nor do I want to excuse her, but I'm just asking you, what do you think?"

Cui Yun lowered her beautiful head, thought for a long time before raising her head and replied: "She is pitiful, but poor people also have their hateful things."

"Before I entered the Palace of Eternal Light, I also dealt with Liu Sizhi in the Shang Palace Bureau. At that time, I only thought that she was considerate and diligent, but I didn't expect that she would have such great ambitions. He has a high self-esteem, and he can backstab his colleagues for many years for the sake of immediate gain, but fortunately, the queen mother has sharp eyesight, which prevented the treacherous scheme from succeeding, otherwise Zhong Zhangling would really be wronged."

"Then" Sheng Shaoqing hesitated for a moment and said, "Is it wrong to have a humble background and ambition?"

"As she said, once Zhong Zhangling entered the Shang Palace Bureau, he was an eighth-rank classic clothes, and Liu Sizhi worked hard for many years to sit in his current seat. In contrast, it is possible for her to complain about Zhong Zhangling Original?"

Cui Yun couldn't help being shocked when she heard the Queen Mother's question. Aren't these all common and commonplace things?

Even the adults in the imperial court. Isn't it the same?
The corresponding grade will be higher when you are born in a superior position and you are awarded an official. This is already an unspoken rule that everyone defaults to.

"The Queen Mother."

Seeing Cui Yun frowning slightly, with a rather tangled look on his face, Sheng Shaoqing said empathetically, "If you don't want to answer, I can figure it out myself."

Sheng Shaoqing thought with emotion that even in the modern age where fairness and justice were emphasized, there were still a lot of "relationship households", let alone the ancient court with strict hierarchy.

Liu Sizhi's jealousy and secretly harming others are definitely not advisable. Sheng Shaoqing just thought that he was just an ordinary person in the past. If he hadn't been reincarnated this time and "became a good baby" to become the queen mother, he would also bring along a "responsive" person. In this system, if she were to dress up as a court lady or something, she would be stuck to death just because of her birth.

【Host, you finally realize how good I am! 】

"Shut your mouth! Get away from me!"

The system made fun of it, and secretly slandered that if I had known about letting the host dress up as a last-class maidservant, and experience a super difficult dungeon, I wouldn't be in the midst of blessings like I did when I was a queen mother at the beginning.

After a long time, Cui Yun said earnestly, "It's really hard for me to answer the Queen Mother's question. After all, I entered the palace with the help of my family. After entering the palace, I will be the emcee. However, I never judge people by their backgrounds Knowing people, as for other people and mediocre ministers, they are also beyond their capabilities."

"I see." Sheng Shaoqing said softly, "I want to be quiet, you go and see how Che'er is packing, and call me again during dinner."

[Host, do you want to make a set of papers slowly? 】

[Otherwise, improve your cultural reserves? 】

[Today, I will give you a point doubling card. 】

Sheng Shaoqing gritted her teeth and said word by word, "I! Think! Be quiet! Be quiet!! Don't you understand!"

【Who is Jingjing?It looks like a female name?Why do you miss her? 】

Sheng Shaoqing: "."

"Don't force me! Be careful, I'll deduct points for you!"

The system had no choice but to keep silent. Didn't it detect that the host's mood was too low, so it wanted to make a sound to relieve it, so that the host should not be so extreme, is it easy?
The system finally couldn't hold back and said, [Oh, you are so irritable because you empathize with Liu Sizhi! 】

Sheng Shaoqing: "No! Impossible! How can I empathize with the bad guys!"

【No?If not, why are you suffering?Don't you just think that if you were Liu Sizhi, not only would you not be able to get her position, you might even be trampled to death, and]

[Isn't it just a reminder that someone robbed your insurance research quota through the back door back then! 】

Sheng Shaoqing: "!!!!"

"how do you know!"

[We always have to choose people with a background. You were so thorough at the beginning, apart from the reason that you are lazy, there are also other factors. Am I right? 】

Sheng Shaoqing: "No! I'm just lazy!"

She didn't admit that it was because she was not used to this kind of behavior but couldn't stop it at all, and she also felt envious of other people's background, and finally fell into a deep self-loathing.

She hates people going through the back door!

She also hates herself who envies others!
She also hates people who tell her that this is the world of grown-ups!
[From a certain point of view, Liu Sizhi has a projection of your going the wrong way. You must have fantasized about taking revenge on the person who joined your team, right? 】

"I really want to take a knife and kill the person who forced me to go to the postgraduate entrance examination. Are you satisfied?"

"Originally, I didn't have to work so hard to prepare for the exam, and I didn't have to suffer from insomnia all night because of anxiety. The happiness of traveling and relaxing should belong to me, do you understand?!"

Sheng Shaoqing realized that he had actually asked the same question as Liu Sizhi, and immediately closed his mouth, annoyed, "Well, I admit that for a moment I sympathized with her. However, I am a law-abiding citizen, Didn't really do anything to that person."

[If you really did something, I don't think we would pick you either. 】

"I'm just thinking about comforting myself in my mind, otherwise, do you know how difficult it is to take the postgraduate entrance examination?!"

"Forget it, you don't know even if I tell you."

Although the college entrance examination is also a single-plank bridge with thousands of troops, but at that time, there were classmates and teachers around to encourage. The postgraduate entrance examination is like groping alone in the dark. Until the last moment, you will never know how it will end.

After finally landing on the shore, he was thrown into an internship by his instructor. After the internship ended, he was knocked into the sky after buying a meal, and then he was thrown into this unaccompanied broken world to be a broken fixer.

She waited in line for a long time to get that pork knuckle rice!
"However, I have figured it out now. I can't get used to it. It may be my problem. Nothing belongs to me. Maybe this is the rule of the game. It's just that I can't get used to it. Since I can't get used to it, then I Just stay out of their way and don’t get in their way. As long as they don’t go too far, I’ll just turn a blind eye and close one.”

"At most, I'll be a troll behind my back."

"Are you going to say that I have no quality again? Yes, I am, no! Quality! Quality!"

After a long silence, the system said, [I really don't know how difficult the postgraduate entrance examination is.However, I know that now you have a choice. 】

[In the past, you had no background and no backer, but now you have a background and backer, and the rest is up to you. 】

"Didn't you not support me to carry out reforms in the past, and only let me maintain the status quo?"

The system said loudly, 【It's not like you haven't experienced changing a strategy every day. 】

Sheng Shaoqing knew what it was alluding to, so he took a breath and said, "Don't talk nonsense!"

[Nanjing has been restructured, and Helian has also experienced fluctuations. There may be major changes in the future. If you don't change, you won't even be able to maintain the status quo. 】

Sheng Shaoqing frowned, the system immediately knew what she was going to say, and then said, [However, you still have to abide by the rules of the game here. 】

Don't try to mess up the process of this world, just give it a revolution from the feudal system to the socialist system!

"Hey!" Sheng Shaoqing said in surprise, "How do you know what I want to say?"

System: Xiao Mian, I still don't know what you want to do?
[If you think clearly, just let go and do it, and I will always be with you. 】

"Then Mr. God, can you activate that point doubling card now?"

system:【? ? ? ?Don't you want it? 】

"Hey," Sheng Shaoqing said with a sly smile, "If you are angry, you can't count it, you can't count it!"

[Then you have finished this paper, I will activate it for you, the experience card is limited to three days, come on! 】

"Don't do it!"

Change starts with daring to target the system!
"I'm going to bed! Recharge your batteries! I'm going on a long journey the day after tomorrow, and I need to sleep a little longer. I'm sure I won't be able to sleep well in the carriage!"

With the experience of riding in a carriage last time, after Sheng Shaoqing's freshness passed, he was followed by a turbulent stomach, and he had to go to Chenliu again. According to Cui Yun, he had to spend at least three days in the carriage. The quality of the rest was sure. It is not guaranteed!
If you don't have a good rest, how can you work hard? !
If you want the horse to run and don't feed the horse, is this impure going to die? !
【you! 】

Seeing that the host is in a bad mood today, the system just swallowed it, and silently activated the triple point card for her with tears in her eyes. The compensation for the collapse of the middle road before starting a business!
The host must cherish it!
"The queen mother?"

Cui Yun didn't see any response in the hall after calling several times. Did the Queen Mother go to bed without even eating dinner?

Cui Yun hesitated for a moment and wondered whether he should wake up the queen mother, and then remembered the queen mother's question, and suddenly a panic flashed through his heart.

Is it her fault that Liu Sizhi came from a humble background and was ambitious?

Her fault was to frame her colleagues for the sake of her position in the palace, but the root cause was still the phrase 'from a humble background and ambition'.

In her impression, most people from humble backgrounds will follow the path of their parents, just like Cui's family slaves, their descendants will always be Cui's house slaves, if they are lucky enough to win the favor of their master, If they were released into slavery, they would just regain their freedom and become common people.

And most of the noble people will have good conduct, just like the current officials in the imperial court, all of them are from aristocratic families, even the Hanchen who has always been despised by others, all of them are from a century-old family.

She never seems to ask why, these things that have been seen a lot seem to have become the law, once someone breaks it, it will make people feel unspeakably uneasy.

There are people with humble backgrounds, and there are also people with high morals, so what?
People who come from a family also have wine bags and rice bags, but so what?
Those who are slaves are still slaves, and those who are ministers are still ministers.

Monarchs and ministers, fathers and sons, from generation to generation.

But the Queen Mother would actually ask, can a person from a humble background not be ambitious?Can't you stand shoulder to shoulder with those of noble birth?

In the past, Cui Yun would have laughed secretly at the ignorance of the person who asked this question, but it was the queen mother who asked this question, so she had to estimate the weight behind this sentence.

I also remembered what the Empress Dowager said to Princess Lin Yang before, Wei Zhen is easy to get rid of, who will be after Wei Zhen?

What does the Queen Mother want to do?
Swiping away the chaotic thoughts in his head, Cui Yun settled down and decided to let the Queen Mother sleep well. He only ordered the people in the small kitchen to prepare all the meals and heat them up every half an hour, so that if the Queen Mother woke up and wanted to If you want to eat, you don't have to wait for it to be cooked, you can eat it directly.

Sheng Shaoqing fell asleep for a long time, and when he woke up, looking at the dark sky outside the window, he thought it was the morning of the next day, so he consciously called Cui Yun to change her clothes.

"Queen Mother!" Cui Yun couldn't help but angrily said, "The Queen Mother should keep someone by her side to wait on her, so that she won't be left alone to take care of her when she falls asleep. It's not morning now, it's just after midnight!"

"Ah?!" Sheng Shaoqing was startled suddenly, "I slept all day and all night?!"

Cui Yun choked, and explained after a while, "Queen Mother, we haven't passed yet!"

"Oh oh oh", Sheng Shaoqing realized that he was sleepless just now, and thought he had already slept in the morning and went to sleep until the next night, "I'll just say, how could you not ask me to wake up in the morning."

Touching his shriveled belly, Sheng Shaoqing looked at Cui Yun in embarrassment and said, "Isn't it a little bit to call the imperial dining room to prepare meals at this hour?"

Cui Yun smiled knowingly, "Weichen was worried that the queen mother would be hungry when she woke up, so I asked the small kitchen to warm the dinner earlier. If the queen mother wants to use it, I will pass it on."

Sheng Shaoqing nodded in a hurry, and Cui Yun called for Ah Ning to pass on the meal.

"Yam and Astragalus Beef Tripe Soup, Chinese Cabbage in Soup, Stir-fried Chrysanthemum Chrysanthemum?"

Sheng Shaoqing read out the names of these dishes tremblingly, "Except for that tripe soup, how come there is no meat at all?"

She doesn't pray to gods or worship Buddha, so why is she still fasting?
"Queen Mother! You just clamored to lose weight after gaining weight the day before yesterday. Why do you feel less meaty today? Besides, it's already this hour. You should not eat too much, and you should eat something that is easy to digest. Tripe The soup is the medicinal diet that Li Taiyi prescribed for you, food tonic is better than medicine tonic, your spleen and stomach were out of balance a few days ago, this soup can nourish the spleen and lungs even more."

Sheng Shaoqing saw that he had just asked a question, and Cui Yun had ten questions waiting for him here, so he had to put down his complaints, and picked up a bowl to drink soup.

Something is better than nothing, she'd better accept it as soon as she sees it.
