Chapter 315
Shangguan Jingyi took a step forward in his wheelchair and smoothed things over for Lan Ruqing, "Queen Mother, Miss Lan means that the minister's backyard is very peaceful now, and if people are forcibly blocked, there will be no peace. Sitting in a wheelchair, no matter who the Empress Dowager allows into the palace, whether she is a concubine or a concubine, it is extremely unfair to that person!"

"How unfair is this? You have made a lot of contributions to the Dazong Kingdom. Not to mention your bad waist, even if it is more serious, they should consider it a blessing for you to serve you! Or do you think that the Ai family arranged a concubine room for you? Did it hurt you?"

"The queen mother is too worried. I have fought for many years and killed too much. Now that my body is damaged, it can be regarded as karma. If I still implicate other girls, it will not be a loss of my blessing. Besides, there has been a war on the border recently. Even if the queen mother has the intention I am afraid that the minister has no intention of enjoying the concubine's room, and has failed the Queen Mother's kindness. I hope the Queen Mother will think twice!"

Shangguan Jingyi borrowed the words of Master Yuande before, and now he is talking about rewards and blessings, so that everyone seems to think that King Jing has escaped into Buddhism.

Shangguan Lingyu saw that the Queen Mother wanted to hand Lan Ruqing to Shangguan Jingyi, so he couldn't help but rescue her.

"Empress Mother is really worried about Emperor Jing Yi too much. Today is your birthday party, and all my thoughts are on Jing Yi. Since Jing Yi has no intention of taking a concubine or marrying a wife, Empress Mother, let us spend our birthday with peace of mind. You see, these ministers can't wait to present the birthday gift. This birthday gift is not secondary, but mainly for the talent competition later on. I really want to see which girl can shine and let my eyes It's light!"

The Empress Dowager wondered why the emperor spoke for these two people.

But the emperor had already spoken, so she couldn't say anything more, just about to nod, suddenly there was a sound outside the hall.

I saw Concubine Cao being helped in, she had a graceful demeanor, and her gestures were like a lightly flying butterfly.

Lan Ruqing has face blindness, and most of the people are based on guesswork. She felt that the person in front of her was very familiar, sniffed her nose, and then looked at Shangguan Jingyi.

This concubine Cao is Shangguan Jingyi's concubine mother, but the concubine she saw in the grove at the palace gate before was sick and about to faint at any moment, why is she so different now?

"It's the Empress Dowager's birthday today, my sister should have come here earlier, but walking around in the palace, I can't help but remind my sister of the scene when the former emperor accompanied my sister to play in the palace. Will you blame your sister?"

As soon as Concubine Cao came in, she saluted the emperor and the queen mother, and then explained the reason for the delay.

That's the way it is said, but no one can hear the show off in it.On the queen mother's birthday, mentioning the fact that she favored the harem back then will undoubtedly annoy the person concerned.

There was a silent gunpowder smoke in the hall, and everyone dared not breathe out, for fear of offending the Queen Mother.

"What did my sister say? How could the Ai family blame me? In fact, the Ai family often remembered the late emperor in the palace. Speaking of which, the Ai family has been in the palace for a long time. It has been so long that I don't know how many years. Sitting on the empress dowager's throne now, watching the emperor handle the affairs of state by himself, it really feels like a dream!"

So what if she favors the harem, she is the real winner in life.Now that she is the Empress Dowager, a word has passed that she and her son have to come over to greet her.

The concubine laughed out of anger, "Yes, it was indeed like a dream. I saw King Ning go out just now, and my concubine followed me to the city gate to have a look. Guess what my sister was thinking at that time?"

The corners of the queen mother's mouth could not help but slightly raised, her white fingers covered her mouth and nose with colorful finger cots.He said firmly, "My sister is thinking about the scene when King Jing led the army to go out!"

"No, no, no, the concubine is thinking, if my sister hadn't slipped that child back then, she would be as big as King Ning now!"

One sentence stirred up waves, and King Ning's mother and concubine Qi Dowager stood up furiously, "Sister Cao, what do you mean by this? King Ning is a child of this palace, sister, don't talk nonsense!"

To be honest, such a big reaction really made people a little suspicious, and Concubine Cao was even more puzzled, "Sister Qi, my sister is just touching the scene, so my sister is a bit too shadowy?"

Dowager Qi choked on a word and was speechless.

It was only when Shangguan Lingyu found out that the Queen Mother had had a child that he was stunned for a moment, not knowing what he was thinking.

The empress dowager's face was slightly gloomy, and she said lightly, "Sister Cao, today is the birthday of the Ai family, so I tried to talk about some things, so I didn't want to give the Ai family face, just now the Ai family decided to point out a girl to Jing'er as a concubine." He didn't even want to, and he took away the face of Aijia, and now you are here..."

The empress dowager looked sad, as if she had been bullied by the concubine and concubine.

Shangguan Jingyi apologized in time, "It is Jing Yi who offended the Queen Mother. If Jing Yi hadn't given the Queen Mother a hundred sons and grandsons longevity screen, the Queen Mother wouldn't have pointed concubines and concubines to ministers and other physically impaired people. As for smearing the Empress Dowager, Jing Yi will go down and receive the punishment!"

Shangguan Jingyi gestured to leave the banquet.

Lan Ruqing only said that Shangguan Jingyi's move was brilliant, but the queen mother pretended to be wronged and pitiful. Could it be that she couldn't be hated for referring to a woman who is physically impaired?
If Shangguan Jingyi was punished, how would those soldiers who followed Shangguan Jingyi through life and death think of the royal family, saying that the royal family was killing a donkey and humiliating a prince who was relieved of his military power? How could the royal family treat them kindly.

If this is not the case, the hearts of all the soldiers will be exhausted, who can wholeheartedly guard the country for a ruler who is always thinking about killing the donkey.

Concubine Cao even stood in front of Shangguan Jingyi, bluntly admonishing, "Empress Dowager, didn't Jinger say at the coming-of-age ceremony that he would choose the concubine himself? Now the Empress Dowager is relying on her birthday to marry at will, completely forgetting to protect the great country. Who is it?"

"Concubine Cao! Ai's family doesn't mean what you think. The concubine is your own niece. It's fine if Jinger doesn't want to. She refers to a concubine. She doesn't want to. Ever since the emperor and Jinger returned to the capital, the capital has been full. It was rumored that King Jing favored a commoner daughter in the mansion. Aijia thought that King Jing would like it, and wanted to point it out to him, but was rejected. Aijia just didn’t know about the girl in your mansion. Who is it that Jing Er likes so much, but she doesn't even want to give it to a concubine, could it be that Aijia's words aroused your resentment, no matter what it is, it is harmful?"

Shangguan Lingyu comforted the queen mother. He wanted to dissuade her at this time, but the queen mother was obviously serious and didn't let her vent. It is estimated that this birthday will not be passed well!
"The queen mother is too worried. Although this girl is not from a high family background, she and my sister hit it off right away. It's like a mother and daughter. Jing'er also wants to make me happy, so she is more protective of her. My sister doesn't know why. The person my sister likes, My sister doesn't like it?"

Everyone was very surprised, even Concubine Cao was protecting that girl.

Concubine Gao smiled slightly at the side, and helped the Queen Mother, "If Concubine Cao likes that girl, why didn't she accept it for King Jing? If she didn't accept it, she must have reached the point where she didn't like it very much. You can take that girl as a foster daughter, and the rumors outside will stop immediately, and the Queen Mother will not be misunderstood like this!"
