Empress Shen Gongjiao

Chapter 83 Didn't the Queen Mother Know It Already?

Early the next morning, Feng Qian was dug out of the bed by the maid, with two big dark circles under her eyes.

Another look of excessive indulgence...

Everyone sighed silently in their hearts, Your Majesty, you know that you have to hurry the next day, so you couldn't help but be so fierce last night?
Jun Moying's eyebrows twitched wildly, he couldn't ignore the too hot gaze, he could only feel sorry for himself, did he live up to the high expectations of these people?
Jun Hanxiao didn't go back this time - the only thing left to do here is finishing work, which can be taken over by King Qi, but not for those going further south.

The official fraud case in the south is said to be not big, but the scope of involvement is very wide, and even some high-ranking officials in the DPRK and China have been involved.Jun Moying was determined to find them out this time, but the news from the palace disrupted the plan, so Jun Hanxiao had to stay and deal with it.

Another half a month passed, and the few finally returned to the palace.

Concubine Xi went to visit the queen mother immediately.

This trip, on the one hand, was due to the exhaustion of the journey, and on the other hand, it was because of depression in her heart, which made her look a lot thinner.

When the queen mother saw her like this, her expression froze for a moment, but her smile remained the same.

"It's really hard for you to take care of the emperor during this time. Let's see how thin you have become."

"Back to the queen mother, the concubine doesn't have to work hard, these are what the concubine should do." Concubine Xi smiled gently, and she was a different person when facing Feng Qian.

"Good, good." The Queen Mother nodded her head and praised twice, "Concubine Xi has always been a good one."

"This time the Crown Prince of Nanyue came to Donglan, and the emperor came back in a hurry. In the rush, is there anything unsatisfactory?"

"Back to the Empress Dowager, not at all." Concubine Xi's smile was a bit forced, her face darkened, "As long as Feng Jieyu is around, the Emperor will be very happy, so how can there be any dissatisfaction?"

The Empress Dowager's eyes narrowed slightly, she lifted the lid of the cup and took a sip of tea on her own, before saying, "Well, it's fine if you don't feel unsatisfactory."

Lian Ruo immediately stepped forward and refilled the teacup for her.Just as she was about to walk to Concubine Xi, she heard the Empress Dowager say indifferently: "No more. It's getting late now, Concubine Xi hasn't had a good rest recently, let's go back and rest earlier today."

Concubine Xi didn't intend to leave at first, and she didn't expect that the queen mother would directly issue an order to evict guests, so she was stunned for a moment before she realized what the queen mother said.

Even though I don't want to, it's not easy to stay anymore.

"The concubine will leave."

"Go."

After Concubine Xi left, the gentle smile on the Empress Dowager's face faded away, and she told Lianruo: "If Concubine Xi comes here in the future, there is no need to let her in."

He gave her a great opportunity but didn't know how to grasp it. In the end, he still made himself look like that, for whom?

Whether she wants to win sympathy or sue Feng Qian for her crimes, it is not what a smart person should do.

"Is the Queen Mother giving up on Concubine Xi just like that?" the palace maid Lianxi asked.

Lianxi is another personal maid beside the Empress Dowager, but it is only in name.

Because she is the niece of the Empress Dowager's family and has always had a close relationship with the Empress Dowager, everyone in the palace regards her as a master, and her status is even better than Lian Ruo's.

When the Empress Dowager heard her speak, even the expression between her brows softened a lot, "The emperor doesn't like her, what can the Ai family do?"

Lianxi smiled and asked back: "But didn't the Queen Mother already know this?"
