wedding dress

Chapter 106
The emperor said after a while: "I can't do anything to the Li family just yet."

His self-proclaimed changed from me to me.The role change from a son to an emperor is completed with just one word.

The Li family, the Li family?
Did the queen really want her life?Xiaodong couldn't figure out, did he have such a big hatred with her?Even if there is—the person she hates more should be Jinfeng, not herself.

Or is it related to Yao Qingyuan?

Yao Qingyuan had a good relationship with the emperor, but it sounds like it ended long before the emperor married the empress Li, didn't it?

Is there any inside story?
It's a pity that Xiaodong was disappointed.The Empress Dowager Shengci and the emperor did not discuss those old events that Xiaodong was afraid to hear but wanted to hear.

"Mother, please rest assured, this matter will eventually come to light sooner or later."

These words seemed to reassure the Empress Dowager Shengci, but after careful consideration, it seemed that she had not promised anything.The emperor is too cunning—but it sounds like the emperor and King An had an unfortunate childhood, and they couldn't fight their way to become emperor without being cunning.

Xiaodong heaved a sigh of relief.No matter what happened to the emperor and Yao Qingyuan back then, it was all in the past. Yao Qingyuan was no longer alive. Whether the emperor misses or empathizes with him, it's best for him to just quietly hide away.The Empress Dowager Shengci loves her dearly, and Xiaodong is of course grateful, but if the Empress Dowager Shengci is at odds with the emperor's mother and son because of her, then the problem will be serious.

She patronized and thought about this in the Zichen Palace, and only when she came out did she think of a more important thing.

Queen Li is the mastermind behind her murder!

Regardless of her motive for killing.Now that the queen mother has confirmed that it is her, and the emperor seems to have a plan in his mind, then it is likely to be her.

Someone wants to kill herself. As a queen, not only does she have this idea, the most important thing is that she also has this ability!The most terrifying thing is that she cannot be brought to justice yet.

Xiaodong suddenly felt that his life was not safe.

Fortunately, the Empress Dowager Shengci did not confront the emperor, and after a while, she only said: "Your Majesty, don't forget this sentence today."

The emperor accompanied them out of Zichen Palace and back to the harem.This time Xiaodong sat even more unsteadily, the empress dowager's chariot was ahead of the emperor!If you are going out, the emperor is of course at the forefront.But this is going back to the inner palace, and the emperor is right behind—that is to say, behind Xiaodong.After entering Yong'an Gate, the emperor's chariot turned around and went to the west.

Why did the Empress Dowager Shengci take her to Zichen Palace?Are you afraid of scaring her by revealing the inside story to her?And with so many eyes in the harem, I am afraid that the queen already knew that they had gone to the Zichen Palace, so what would the queen think?How to do it?
Xiaodong pondered for a while, and told the Empress Dowager Shengci what Zhao Zhi had discussed with her.

The Empress Dowager Shengci quite agreed: "That's right, I've thought about it too. Your father and your elder brother couldn't think of it. Naturally, the girls have to learn some things about needlework butlers, so that they can live on their own in the future. Your original From whom did you learn that bit of sewing?"

"Mother Hu taught me some things, and I just watched others do it and just followed suit."

Empress Dowager Shengci obviously knew her: "She is a steady person, but she is not very skilled in needlework." She thought for a while, then waved her hand and said, "Go and call Baozhu."

Baozhu was also a female official in fifth-rank attire. After paying her respects, she asked, "What orders does the Empress Dowager have?"

"I remember that among the things submitted by the needlework bureau two days ago, there was a good tent. Who embroidered it?"

Baozhu asked, "But that curtain with draped gauze and double curtains?"

"Yeah, that's it."

Baozhu thought for a while, and said unequivocally, "Back to the Queen Mother, it was embroidered by Wu Di."

The Empress Dowager Shengci nodded: "Come here and let me have a look."

Xiaodong leaned next to the Empress Dowager Shengci, although he diverted the conversation, but in the end he didn't have a bottom line and was a little distracted.There were so many things she wanted to ask, but she didn't dare to ask.

The Empress Dowager Shengci patted her hand and said softly, "Did I scare you just now?"

Xiaodong hurriedly shook his head.

"I'm..." The Queen Mother shook her head: "I'm actually not such a smart person. Just now I was offended by Concubine Ming, so I forgot everything else. If your father asks about you after you go back, you will Tell him the truth."

Xiaodong responded, and asked tentatively: "Ming Guifei... also knows about this?"

The Empress Dowager Shengci squeezed out a sentence: "She really knows a lot."

It's not all good intentions.Xiaodong hesitated for a moment: "How did the imperial concubine know? She... Did she ask the empress dowager for something?"

Empress Dowager Shengci was a little relieved: "You are older and more sensible than before. You don't need to worry about this matter. With me here, no one will harm you."

Queen why?
Xiaodong couldn't figure out the Queen's motives.In her impression, the queen was not someone who would do such a thing.When Empress Dowager Shengde was still there, the emperor needed patience, and so did the empress.She was able to serve the Empress Dowager Shengde submissively and submissively for several years in a row. After the Empress Dowager Shengde left, she quickly took over the power of the harem.Looking at her different attitudes towards the fourth princess, the second prince, and the third prince, it can be seen that the queen is not a fatuous person, she is tough and rational.Even if he doesn't like Xiaodong, but blatantly instigating the assassin to kill her——

Makes no sense.

Xiaodong pondered for a long time in his stomach, and for a while he was willing to believe that the murderer was the queen.After a while, I couldn't help but think, maybe the empress didn't do this.The queen really wanted to deal with her, so there was no better way?
Caigu has already sent Wu Di.This Shun Di seems to be in her twenties, she is wearing a pea green palace gown, very simple, with no embroidery pattern on her whole body, it is hard to tell that she will be a master of this skill.

The Queen Mother asked a few words, nodded, and seemed to be satisfied with this Wu Di: "Clean up and go to Prince An's Mansion to teach the princess needlework."

Xiaodong didn't expect the queen mother to give her someone up, blinked her eyes, stared blankly at Wu Di, then at the queen mother.

"It's good to learn, and I pointed out that you can do two good jobs for me after you have learned it."

Xiaodong was a little surprised, but also a little embarrassed: "The Empress Dowager thinks that I did it rough before?"

The Empress Dowager Shengci's expression was still cold, but her eyes were gentle and gentle: "I would like you even if you tie a piece of hemp rope. But you can't just please me in the future. Naturally, you can do it more delicately and skillfully, so you can sell it." .”

This means to put it euphemistically that her work is actually out of hand.

Xiaodong was a little lost, and said dejectedly: "Then the empress dowager has to wait patiently, I am very clumsy, I may not be able to learn it in a year or two."

"Okay, I'll wait."

Wu Di bowed to Xiaodong again, and Xiaodong only accepted half of the ceremony.
