After Xiao Fubao's life was stolen, he became the favorite of everyone in the capital

Chapter 327 Awkwardness

The Queen Mother was the first to see the Emperor come in and waved to him.

The emperor walked over with heavy steps.

Niuniu just glanced at him and immediately said, "Grandma Queen Mother, I have something to do and I need to go to rest."

When the little girl said this, there was a hint of annoyance on her face.

The Queen Mother's first reaction was to look at Concubine Luo, thinking that it was Concubine Luo who did not allow Niu Niu to stay there, affecting the relationship between Concubine Luo and the Emperor.

Unexpectedly, Lady Luo lowered her head and said, "Your Majesty, since Niuniu wants to rest, I will take my leave first."

The emperor's arrival brought silence to the entire palace.

If the Queen Mother hasn't discovered the problem yet, she would have been fighting in the White House all these years.

"There's no need to leave in a hurry. If you have anything to say, just say it here!" said the Queen Mother.

Niu Niu glanced at the emperor and then snorted.

Luo Meiren tried hard to reduce her presence and did not dare to speak.

The emperor touched his nose embarrassedly and did not speak.

The Queen Mother frowned and said, "Everyone is acting weird. Li Shunfu, you tell me."

Li Shunfu was suddenly called out, and he felt as if a pot had suddenly fallen on his head.

Facing the sharp gaze of the Queen Mother, Li Shunfu could only bite the bullet and explain: "Queen Mother, when you fainted in the Imperial Garden earlier, the Imperial Concubine said that Niuniu was unlucky and asked Your Majesty to send her out of the palace."

Li Shunfu had a timid face, but he explained the matter clearly.

When the Queen Mother heard this, she also frowned and said to the Emperor, "No wonder Niuniu doesn't want to pay attention to you. Our Guaibao is a lucky doll known throughout the capital, how come he has been tainted with bad luck? If it weren't for Guaibao, I would still be poisoned now, and I don't know when I would have discovered it!"

The emperor saw that his mother was angry, so he could only smile and said, "Don't worry, mother, I was just confused for a moment and will never mention this matter again."

The empress dowager's dissatisfaction was not directed at the emperor, but at the imperial concubine hiding behind him. The empress dowager did not understand that the emperor was smarter than anyone else about political affairs, but when he met the imperial concubine, no matter how outrageous the imperial concubine's reasons were, she could convince the emperor.

"Now, it's not me who should be relieved, but Niu Niu who should be relieved. Our good baby is such a filial and sensible child, but she has been irritated by you!" The Queen Mother stood up for Niu Niu.

The emperor smiled awkwardly again and said to Niuniu, "My dear, it is the emperor's fault. You shouldn't believe everything you hear."

After hearing this apology, Niuniu finally looked at him and said, "The palace doesn't welcome me very much. I want to go home when the Queen Mother recovers from her illness."

Niu Niu has always been a child at heart. Now that she has been wronged, even if the emperor has apologized, her first reaction is still to go home and have a good cry in Zhang Yuniang's arms.

The Queen Mother and Concubine Luo couldn't help but feel a little sad when they saw the little girl's appearance.

"Good boy, grandma knows that you have been wronged. If you don't want to pay attention to your uncle, just ignore him!" The Queen Mother said softly while hugging Niu Niu.

As the emperor looked at this situation, he couldn't help but feel a little panic in his heart, as if something was out of control.

"My dear, what will it take for you to forgive your uncle? I will open the treasury and give you the best treasures in the world, okay?" the emperor tried to make amends.

Niuniu snorted softly from her pretty little nose, then turned her head and said, "I don't care about any treasures!"

The emperor looked at Concubine Luo again. Concubine Luo wanted to play dumb, but Qian Rongsheng beside her kept giving her looks.

Lady Luo had no choice but to say to Niuniu in a gentle voice: "My dear, His Majesty really knows he is wrong, and he will never do such a thing next time."

The emperor also said: "My dear, please forgive me this time, but next time I will never say anything unlucky or anything like that, and I will never make you sad again."

When the emperor said this, he felt a sense of familiarity.

Niuniu turned around and said, "I didn't want to enter this palace. You guys insisted on bringing me in. At home, my father and mother never let me suffer this kind of grievance! If I didn't like the Queen Mother, I would have left the palace long ago!"

If someone else had said this, the emperor would have been furious.

Qian Rongsheng and Li Shunfu, who were standing by, had never seen such a scene before. They were so frightened that their legs were trembling with fear, fearing that Niu Niu would be angered by the emperor.

But the emperor was not angry at all. Instead, he said with a smile: "Okay, okay, it's all my fault. Don't be angry, my dear. If you get angry, you will become ugly."

When Niuniu heard this, she became anxious and grabbed the Queen Mother and asked, "Grandma Queen Mother, have I really become ugly?"

The Queen Mother couldn't help laughing and said, "She hasn't become ugly. Our sweet baby is the most beautiful!"

The emperor was very cooperative and asked someone to bring a bronze mirror. He said, "You will only be angry for a while. You won't become ugly."

Niu Niu breathed a sigh of relief. She finally stopped being angry with the emperor and was willing to give him a good face.

The emperor did not feel relaxed for long. Thinking of the poison that came and went without a trace, his face couldn't help but become heavy again.

No one knows a son better than his mother. The Queen Mother noticed her son's abnormality immediately and asked, "Emperor, have you encountered any trouble?"

The emperor sighed and glanced at Lady Luo beside him.

Lady Luo was knowledgeable and tactful, so she immediately stood up and said goodbye.

Niuniu looked at Luo Meiren reluctantly: "Sister, you've only played with me for a short while today, are you leaving?"

Lady Luo wanted to take Niuniu out to play, but the little girl was still held tightly in the Queen Mother's arms.

The emperor thought that Luo Meiren had just entered the palace, and this matter probably had nothing to do with her, so he waved his hand and said, "Forget it, you listen too, and see if you can help find some clues."

Concubine Luo was forced to stay. She felt that what the emperor wanted to say might involve the private affairs of the palace, so she didn't really want to stay and listen.

Now the happiest person is Niu Niu. She is happy that the person she likes can spend more time with her.

"We have searched Shoukang Palace several times inside and outside, but still have no clues. Now, apart from knowing what kind of poison the queen mother was poisoned with, we know nothing about when and how the poison was administered," said the emperor.

The Queen Mother frowned, and after hearing the whole story, she couldn't grasp the main point for a moment.

Luo Meiren was a lady who stayed at home, so naturally she had no opinion on this matter involving murder.

The emperor originally wanted to hear the empress dowager's opinions, but now that a group of people had gathered together, they had become like headless flies.

Niuniu, who was not expected by everyone, suddenly said, "It's impossible that there are no clues! My father said that if it's done, there will most likely be traces left. Is there anything else that we haven't found yet?"
