Reborn Totalitarian Queen

Chapter 826 The prestige of the queen mother, please enter the urn (1)
The visitor is the Empress Dowager Song who has been away from the palace for many days.

At that time, the lights had just come on, and the entire palace complex in the imperial city was shrouded in resplendent and resplendent lights, and there was an air of extravagance everywhere.

During this period of time, the Empress Dowager Song has been moving to the Imperial Temple alone in the name of worshiping Buddha, so her clothes are also more plain.

She wore a blue-gray toga embroidered with silver thread, and there were no conspicuous accessories in her hair, but just the graceful and calm expression between her brows gave off a low-key but luxurious aura.

The guard who was sent to the Song Mansion followed behind her obediently, with a shrunken expression.

The emperor was greatly surprised and couldn't help standing up slowly while holding the handle of the seat.

"I've seen the empress dowager!" Gao Jinli reacted first, and hastily knelt down to salute.

The Empress Dowager Song's face was cold and serious, and she walked into the hall without looking sideways.

Princess Jin'an's heart slowly hung in his throat.

The emperor, who had been stunned for a long time, finally came back to his senses, but his tongue was a little uncontrollably stiff, and he pulled the corner of his mouth and said, "Why did the empress return to the palace so suddenly, and I didn't tell anyone in advance?"

"I heard that the emperor is not feeling well? Is it all right?" The Empress Dowager Song was supported by Nanny Zhuang into the palace, but she didn't answer the question instead.

"Mother Lao is worried. It's the son's fault." The emperor said, also avoiding the serious and taking the light.

The Empress Dowager Song would suddenly return to the palace at this time, it was definitely because the visitor was not kind, and he dared not take it lightly.

"Meet the imperial grandmother!"

"My daughter-in-law greets the Empress Dowager!"

"My minister has seen the queen mother!"

Princess Nanping and others who were present also saluted and paid their respects.

The Empress Dowager Song walked straight to the top position, but when she passed by Princess Nanping, she said lightly, "Nanping, get up, in front of your father, you don't have to be so ostentatious."

Although Princess Nanping is the emperor's daughter and has no direct relationship with this incident, the emperor didn't take her too seriously, and now the Empress Dowager Song avoided her kneeling ceremony when she came.

Princess Nanping's heart became hot, and she suddenly felt a little wronged, and then she was helped up by the female officer beside her, "Thank you for your kindness, Grandmother and Father."

The emperor's complexion became more and more ugly, but he had no choice but to take a step forward in person, holding the Empress Dowager Song's hand to let her sit down, "Mother, please slow down."

"It's okay." The Empress Dowager Song sat down as she said. The emperor was still on guard and thinking about her reason for coming, but she had already said bluntly: "This slave is the one you want to send to the Song Mansion?"

"Yes!" The emperor sat down on the seat next to her and straightened his expression again, "Because there is an incident involving Song Chuxi and Lao Shi, I need to ask that girl to come over and ask a few words in person, and I also ask the empress to be sympathetic. .”

"There's no need to ask questions." The Empress Dowager Song said coldly: "The Ai family will make the decision for that girl Xi'er. If you have anything to say, just tell the Ai family."

What does she mean?Even if she wants to protect Song Chuxi, it's not the way to protect Song Chuxi.

"Mother, this matter is no small matter—" the emperor blurted out.

"What kind of big deal can it be? It can be so big that even the family can't afford it?" The Queen Mother Song interrupted him again without leaving room.

If she couldn't handle something, Song Chuxi naturally couldn't handle it.

The emperor was annoyed by her tough attitude, and took a breath in his chest, but he couldn't attack.

Princess Jin'an observed her words, and said decisively, "Grandmother, the emperor is also afraid that you will be caught in the middle, because the Fourth Miss Song secretly indulged Princess Wenxin to escape, and Peng Ze needs to be accountable for this matter. Don't be sloppy, the emperor has to invite her here to ask about Princess Wenxin's whereabouts."

Empress Dowager Song put one hand on the back of the chair and looked over with a blank expression.

This woman, who has been in the harem for decades, is really a figure that should not be underestimated.

Princess Jin'an was in awe of her instinctively in his heart, and lowered his eyes slightly dodging.

Only then did the Empress Dowager Song speak, "Xi'er indulged that girl and left? Is there any evidence for this matter? Who witnessed this? Ask him to come over and tell Ai's family face to face."

Regarding this matter, both Cheng Yu and Princess Jin'an held one-sided opinions.

Before, Cheng Yu was completely suppressed because she was suppressed by his identity in front of the emperor. Now that the Empress Dowager Song appeared, she made it clear that she was protecting Song Chuxi, and the situation was quite different.

Cheng Yu breathed a sigh of relief and smiled coldly, "That's right, Princess Jin'an first testified that Fourth Miss Song adjudicated Princess Wenxin and escaped, and then said that I was their accomplice, even if Princess Wenxin disappeared with the two of us the night she disappeared." I have met you, princess, did you hear with your own ears that the two of us conspired to give her an idea and sent her away?"

"You—" Princess Jin'an gritted her teeth secretly, and said angrily, "Cheng Yu, you are making unreasonable words."

"Princess, you have a reason?" Cheng Yan retorted, "Then please bring the clear witness, I'm not afraid to confront him face to face."

At that time, there were no outsiders in Song Chuxi's yard at all, and no one knew what she had said to Princess Wenxin. It is not impossible to fabricate fake witnesses, but with Song Chuxi's personality, she is sure. If you don't know how to do this, you will definitely show your flaws when confronted.

Princess Jin'an choked on her, his face flushed red.

The Empress Dowager Song turned her head to look at the emperor again, "No witnesses?"

The emperor did not personally participate in this matter, so naturally he had nothing to say.

Princess Jin'an gritted her teeth again and said, "Grandmother, even if no one heard the conversation between Miss Song Si and Princess Wenxin, Wenxin insisted on returning to Beijing after seeing her at that time, and it was such a coincidence The next morning, Miss Song Si also rushed back in a hurry? All these signs are connected, she is really inescapable, and people don't want to doubt her."

Listening to her, the Empress Dowager Song's expression didn't look any colder.

"Mother—" the emperor followed suit.

"Emperor!" The Empress Dowager Song interrupted him coldly, and said with an unfriendly expression: "Jin An said so much, but in the end it was all just her one-sided words, and there was no evidence at all. Based on this girl's random words, should Xi'er go to the palace to confront her?"

"This matter is indeed suspicious..." the emperor said.

"Without evidence, it's all just rumors without evidence." The Empress Dowager Song's attitude was extremely tough, and she interrupted sharply without waiting for him to finish speaking, "Emperor, Jin'an is just a girl, don't forget, you are in front of me." I personally issued the imperial edict, recognizing Xi'er as the head of the Song family. The Song family has been stationed on the border for decades, defending you against foreign enemies, willingly suffering from the wind and cold on the frontier, and never complaining. Now——you The woman's random words are about to bring Chu Xi into the palace for interrogation? Emperor, you should ask your own conscience, is this really appropriate? You are not afraid of being chilled by the soldiers guarding the border for you, and you are not afraid Did you hurt Aijia's heart?"
