Chapter 199
Gu Qingzhou looked at Ye Xi in surprise for a while.

If it is a person in the capital, it is not surprising to know that the Empress Dowager has worshiped Buddha for many years.But this is Yunshui Town, which is really far away from the capital.

As far as he knew, Ye Xi had never traveled far. How did she know about the Queen Mother?
"I've also heard people say, does your Gu family have eyeliners in the palace, and can you know some of the Queen Mother's preferences?"

"Isn't the palace a place where we can inquire about news at will? It's true that the Empress Dowager believed in Buddhism. In the early years before the emperor was enthroned, he suffered a serious illness. At that time, the Empress Dowager begged the Buddha. As long as the late emperor recovered, he would live a lifetime." Promise the Buddha and become a vegetarian.

"Later, the late emperor really got better and was canonized as the crown prince, so the queen mother felt that it was the manifestation of the Buddha, and she always believed in the Buddha for many years.

"Even the first emperor always believed in Buddhism, and he valued people in Buddhism." Gu Qingzhou said seriously. "For how many years, the Empress Dowager has been abstaining from all desires. If you want to say what you like, it's hard to say."

"Then maybe we can only start with the Buddha, but if we want to win the favor of the Queen Mother, we still need to be very good at tricks." Ye Xi pondered.

"If the queen mother has any hope now, I'm afraid it's the emperor's heir." Gu Qingzhou said suddenly.

"Emperor's heir?" Ye Xi looked at him seriously, "What do you say? Could it be that the emperor's heir is in a difficult situation?"

Gu Qingzhou nodded, "It's not just difficult. The emperor has passed the age of forty, but so far there is only one daughter under his knees, who was born by the imperial concubine Wei. Although there are many concubines in the harem, no one has ever given birth to a prince. It became the empress dowager's heart disease.

"The Empress Dowager even said that if she couldn't see the birth of the prince, she would have no face to meet the late emperor and ancestors.

"For the matter of the emperor's heir, the empress dowager and the emperor seemed to have had a very tense quarrel. In recent years, the emperor has been trying to mend the relationship between mother and child, but he has even selected a lot of beautiful girls in the palace."

"Child?" Ye Xi bit his lips, "It's possible to do some tricks to send the son of Guanyin, but it's too risky."

Although the queen mother is eager to beg her grandson, this is always the family background of the queen mother and the emperor, and no one else can tolerate it.

It would be a disaster if they presented relevant tricks hastily and self-defeating.

What's more, the situation in the palace is complicated, and the reason why the emperor has no children is unknown.

I don't know what the emperor thinks about the childlessness. If the emperor thinks that he is mocking him for not being able to give birth to a child, isn't it the death of his head?

Doing business with the palace is different from the outside.If it's just an outside transaction, there is no benevolence or righteousness in the transaction anyway.

But in the palace, once the nobles in the palace are offended, it is very likely to die.

Thinking of this, I feel the pressure in my heart is increasing.

"You're right, it's really too risky. Although we want to curry favor with the queen mother, we can't offend others rashly." Gu Qingzhou sighed, "There are rumors in the capital that the reason why the emperor has no children is because Concubine Wei refused to let him.

"The emperor and Concubine Wei are childhood sweethearts, and they have been close since childhood. Concubine Wei is also favored by the emperor after entering the palace, even if she has been childless, she is still favored. I heard that Concubine Wei does not allow other concubines to have children because of her status. the next child."

"If Concubine Wei is really like this, wouldn't the Empress Dowager and Empress not show up?" Ye Xi did not doubt that Concubine Wei could do such a thing.

After all, the battles in the harem have always been turbulent, and the concubines and concubines of the palace frequently resort to tricks.
