The Emperor's Pet: The Queen of Poison Disturbs the King

Chapter 223
Empress Dowager Si's health has been particularly poor recently, she is not yet forty now, and all the old problems accumulated when she was a queen in the past have committed all of them, making her miserable all day long and has no energy.

Especially in this hot day, the imperial doctor said that it is best not to use ice all the time, otherwise the humidity will be heavy, and the bones will hurt in the future.Empress Dowager Si had to reduce the amount of ice cubes used, which made her hot and restless, and the illness protracted longer and longer.

In the past two days, she managed to feel a little better. The Empress Dowager Si ate a bowl of lotus seed porridge every day, and her spirits recovered a little, so she asked about the affairs of the harem.

Wan Shu naturally told all about the assassination of Sheng Feihong before, and the Queen Mother's good mood disappeared immediately.

"Hmph, how dare a court lady be so arrogant and domineering!" The Empress Dowager Si was drinking lotus seed porridge when she heard that she slammed the spoon into the bowl, making a crisp crashing sound. She didn't like court ladies climbing on the bed. If it wasn't for...

"Master, let's use some more porridge!" Wan Shu hurried up to pass the porridge bowl forward, speaking in a soft voice, there is no way, Empress Dowager Si's appetite has not been good for a while, and now it is finally better, she I really don't want a little imperial court lady to disturb her interest.

The Empress Dowager Si snorted coldly, and instead of reaching out to take the bowl, she sneered even more displeased, "The emperor is getting angry now, and there is no room for anyone sent by the Ai family to serve him!"

Wan Shu's heart skipped a beat. This was the first time that Empress Dowager Si used this attitude to criticize Ji Xuanyao. It seemed that the relationship between mother and son had really become rigid to the point of mutual resentment.Ji Xuanyao's indifferent and mocking face suddenly appeared in Wan Shu's mind. Although the mother and son did not look alike, their personalities were exactly the same. She sighed softly in her heart and comforted her softly, "Master, why do you have to fight with the emperor?" Seriously? No matter what, the emperor is your own son, if he is not toward you, who else is he toward?"

Empress Dowager Si's face twisted for a while, and it took a long time before she regained her graceful expression. She reached out to take the bowl, and drank the porridge gracefully, with a pair of delicate phoenix eyes full of sarcasm, "The Ai family treats him as a Son, but does he regard Aijia as his mother? It's not like you don't know that the emperor has been complaining about Aijia since Sheng Feihong died. This emperor is really filial. Look at the past half a year. Come to Renshou Palace once to pay respects to Ai's family?"

Wan Shu felt helpless for a while, and was also very helpless for the mother-son rivalry, but the Empress Dowager still wanted to control the affairs of the previous dynasty, but now the imperial study room is airtight, and the Empress Dowager can't put people there, so the mother and son The relationship is getting more and more tense.

"Master..." Wan Shu opened her mouth, but she didn't know how to persuade her.

"Okay, the Ai family's health has improved a lot. After a period of rest, the harem will be in such a mess. You have passed on the Ai family's decree. The queen and Li Jieyu mismanaged the harem. They took back the phoenix seal and the people in charge of the harem. Power!" The Empress Dowager Si sneered, put the bowl on the table suddenly, and said coldly, "Li Jieyu failed to educate the court ladies well, and was downgraded to a fourth-rank talent. She still lives in Xueyang Palace, but no longer Manage any matters in Xueyang Palace!"

Wan Shu's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly responded, "Master, I'm afraid the Empress will not be convinced!"

Several times before, Si Yueqin obtained the Phoenix Seal and the power to control the affairs of the harem from the Empress Dowager Si. Every time she was asked to go back, she was not in a comfortable mood. This time, the Empress Dowager Si had been ill for a long time. Yinna is a flamboyant and domineering person, how can he be happy now that he suddenly withdraws his power?
Empress Dowager Si sneered, her tone dark and condensed, "So what if you are not convinced? In this harem, the Ai family has the final say!"
