Chapter 707: Pregnancy Care (Part )

This Cui Du! How dare he insult her in front of everyone!
Empress Dowager Zheng was so angry that she glared at Cui Du: "You bastard! How dare you disrespect me! You are rebelling against the heaven!"

Cui Du and Empress Dowager Zheng looked at each other and said, "The Emperor is the Heaven of Daliang. I am thinking about the Emperor's health, but how come in Grandmother's mouth, it's considered as rebelling against Heaven? Grandmother has been dominating the palace for decades. Has she forgotten the difference between the Empress Dowager and the Emperor?"

Well done!
Qin Hu and Meng Sanbao applauded Lord Changning crazily in their hearts!
Empress Dowager Zheng was so angry that she pointed her finger at Cui Du's nose and cursed: "Bah! You are a son-in-law. If you hadn't married into the Nanyang Palace, you wouldn't be where you are today. You are not worthy of holding your head high in front of me! I don't even want to look at you. Get out of here immediately!"

Cui Du did not move: "Grandma is in a bad mood and wants to scold her grandson-in-law to vent her anger. I will bear it. However, grandma, don't even think about entering the emperor's bedroom."

"Also, the emperor has Dr. Sun and his daughter by his side, so there is no need for other doctors to diagnose his pulse. We should take the doctor that grandma brought back to Jingyang Palace. Grandma is old and easily angered, so she needs a doctor even more."

Wow! Crazy killing!

Qin Hu and Meng Sanbao all cast admiring glances at him.

Changning Bo usually spends most of his time in the farm, cultivating crops and growing grain. Agriculture is the foundation of the country, and what Cui Du does benefits the country and the people. However, his presence is not very strong. The guards have all muttered in private, if the princess had not insisted on marrying her son-in-law, how could Cui Du be the princess's husband?
I never thought that Cui Du would make a big splash! Today, he showed his power and made the Empress Dowager almost choke.

Empress Dowager Zheng was so angry that she ordered without hesitation: "Eunuch Lin, go and capture this evil creature!"

Eunuch Lin usually hunched over and looked as kind as dough, but in fact he was vicious and everyone in the palace avoided him. When the Empress Dowager gave an order, Eunuch Lin responded and quickly flashed in front of Cui Du.

Qin Hu was prepared. He snorted coldly and also flashed forward.

Bang bang bang bang!

In the blink of an eye, the two had exchanged several moves.

Meng Sanbao frowned. Qin Hu was the best among the young guards. He never thought that he would not have the upper hand against the eunuch Lin who had to take three breaths every time he walked, and was even slightly suppressed.

Forget it, this isn't a duel. If you can't beat him, just attack him together.

Meng Sanbao felt no guilt for the young men teaming up to bully an old servant, and he attacked brazenly.

Eunuch Lin frowned, quickly retreated, and said to Empress Dowager Zheng, "I am useless! These two imperial guards are both masters, and I am no match for them!"

There are not only the two of them, there are also a group of tall, strong and skilled imperial guards who are eyeing them covetously.

On the other hand, Empress Dowager Zheng brought with her a few eunuchs and palace maids in addition to Eunuch Lin. Not to mention whether it was against the rules to fight here, even if they really wanted to fight, they would not be able to win!
If the commotion continues, the only person who will be embarrassed is the Grand Empress Dowager Zheng. After all, Cui Du is young and a son-in-law, so face is not important. But it is different for the Grand Empress Dowager. If she loses face here, she will be laughed at.

Empress Dowager Zheng naturally understood the meaning behind Eunuch Lin's words.

Empress Dowager Zheng snorted heavily, her eyes swept across everyone's faces, finally landing on Cui Du's face.

It's strange. This guy seemed ordinary at first, but why does he have such a fearless demeanor now?

"I will send my grandmother back to Jingyang Palace." Cui Du did not continue to be tough. Seeing that the Empress Dowager was timid, he immediately paved the way for her.

Empress Dowager Zheng snorted coldly: "No need."

Then he turned around and walked away.

Eunuch Lin and others then turned and left.

Cui Du let out a long sigh.

Meng Sanbao and Cui Du were the most familiar with each other. They winked and gave a thumbs up: "Lord Changning is mighty!" Qin Hu also grinned and said happily: "Luckily, Lord Changning is here today, otherwise, we might not dare to stop him."

They dared to go through fire and water for the emperor. However, due to their status, they did not have the confidence to confront the Empress Dowager Zheng head-on.

Cui Du's performance today was truly heroic and worthy of respect.

Cui Du smiled and said, "I am just talking nonsense. If I really want to do anything, I have to rely on you guys."

Everyone was happy when they praised each other.

……

It was impossible for Jiang Shaohua not to hear such a loud noise outside the dormitory. However, the sound was vague and blurred through the thick door, and it was resolved before it could reach her, which saved her a lot of worry.

Cui Du recounted what had happened: "The Empress Dowager has returned to Jingyang Palace. I guess after this commotion, things down there will be quiet for a few days."

Jiang Shaohua sneered: "You really don't understand her. At most tomorrow, she will come to Showa Hall again."

It was impossible to calm down. Unless the Empress Dowager Zheng gave in and let the Zheng family go, she would continue to make trouble.

Cui Du was furious when he heard this: "Why let the Zheng family go! Zheng Chen is not to be mentioned. It was Zhao Wu who committed evil deeds at the border back then, killing countless civilians and soldiers. And it was all the work of the Zheng family father and son behind this."

"For the sake of party struggles and power struggles, they dared to do such acts that disregarded the overall situation and could be called treason. The Empress Dowager still wanted to protect the Zheng family! The court officials submitted memorials, and their spit could drown the Zheng family!"

Jiang Shaohua pulled the corner of his mouth and said lightly: "The Empress Dowager knows this very well, so she was so angry and blamed Eunuch Zhao. Today, she hurried to Zhaohe Palace to run into trouble again."

"I want to use this incident to completely suppress the Empress Dowager."

This is political wrestling.

It is not simply a matter of right or wrong, but about taking advantage of all favorable factors and making the most appropriate choice.

Cui Du sighed: "I am really not suitable for officialdom."

"You do what you like," Jiang Shaohua smiled slightly, with a hint of indulgence in his smile: "I'll take care of these things, you don't have to worry about them."

Cui Du reached out and gently stroked Jiang Shaohua's bulging belly: "My daughter, your mother is working so hard, don't make a fuss, be good."

Her belly moved slightly, as if responding to her father.

Jiang Shaohua pursed her lips and smiled, and also reached out to touch her belly: "It's not that she made trouble for me, it's that I couldn't control my emotions and lost my composure, and the child suffered as a result."

"Don't worry, I'll just stay in bed for the next few days. I'll go to court after I'm well again."

……

The tree wants to be calm and the wind does not stop.

The Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War were busy preparing military funds, food, and supplies in preparation for the expedition.

The newly appointed Censor Cao submitted a memorial to the emperor, impeaching the father and son of Duke Anguo for treason. The memorial was written in a sharp and eloquent manner, with thousands of words, and it accused the father and son of the Zheng family of ten major crimes.

This memorial spread quickly throughout the court and the country, and it caused a huge uproar.
