County Lord Changning

Chapter 489 Dismayed
Sima Ru twitched the corner of his mouth, but there was still no smile on the corner of Ba's mouth. Thinking that he was going to leave with Ning'er and the others tonight, Sima Ru simply didn't bother to pretend. He nodded, and said in a calm voice, "How much?" It's not a day, I went to the palace to pay my respects to my mother, this afternoon happens to be free, so I came here to pay my respects to my mother, and chat with her by the way."

Concubine Xiao Shu smiled, "I didn't ask the queen mother what she was doing in the palace, the queen mother is in the palace, and you are the emperor's most respected sister, so naturally you should go into the palace more." Then she looked at the queen mother and asked in a low voice Said, "Mother, you said what the concubine said, right?"

"Okay." The Empress Dowager originally didn't want to show Concubine Xiao Shu's face, but Concubine Xiao Shu actually embarrassed her daughter in front of her. She is not dead yet!Immediately, the Queen Mother's face darkened, she looked at Concubine Xiao Shu coldly, and said in a deep voice, "Ai's family is exhausted now, so don't stay here anymore, there are many things in the harem today, pay more attention to yourself, don't let Ai The family is an old bone and still manages the harem for you!"

Concubine Xiao Shu heard that the Queen Mother was threatening herself, the smile on her face quickly subsided, she said yes in a low voice, and left with her mother.

Sima Ru looked at Concubine Xiao Shu's leaving back, frowned, looked back at the Queen Mother, and asked in a low voice, "The emperor plans to hand over the power of the harem to Concubine Xiao Shu?"

"Don't worry about it too much, the emperor has his reasons for doing things." The queen mother looked away lightly, stretched out her hand and rubbed the center of her eyebrows, and saw off the guests, "You can go back too, Ai's family is tired, and I need to take a rest .”

Sima Ru gave the Empress Dowager a shy look, pursed her lips, wanted to say something but couldn't, so she stood up and walked a few steps. Sima Ru came back to look at the Empress Dowager. When she opened her mouth, she saw Sima Ru knelt down, and the queen mother frowned, "What are you doing? What else do you want to mourn? Or did Ning'er cause trouble?" At this point, the queen mother frowned, and said hesitantly, "Ning'er A lot has changed in the past year, so it shouldn't cause any trouble, what are you doing kneeling?"

Sima Ru kowtowed on the ground, looked up at the empress dowager, her eyes were flushed, and the empress dowager frowned even more, Sima Ru said, "From now on, Concubine Xiao Shu will be in power in this harem, I'm afraid it won't be so easy for my son to come back to you Please be safe, the queen mother must pay attention to her body, don't get angry, and her body will be damaged by anger. You must wear more clothes in winter. If you burn charcoal in the palace, you must ventilate it. It is best to let the palace people burn the earth dragon. It's still not as good as the earth dragon, and don't always put ice cubes in the room in summer, it's better for the queen mother to go to the palace to escape the heat, otherwise her bones will definitely hurt easily in the future, and rheumatism will not be cured..."

"What are you talking about!" The Empress Dowager looked deeply at Sima Ru who was kneeling on the ground, and said in a cold voice, "Even with the support of the emperor, if she dares to prevent you from entering the palace, the Ai family can still take back her power!"

Sima Ru smiled, nodded lightly and said, "What the queen said is that you are the heart of power in this palace. Ru'er thinks too much, but I still want to talk to the queen today." The queen mother saluted before standing up and walking outside the palace.

The Empress Dowager looked at Sima Ru's back in a murmur, her brows were getting closer, and suddenly she stood up and called Sima Ru to stop, and shouted, "It's getting late, why don't you go back after dinner with the Empress?"

Sima Ru's footsteps suddenly stopped, she looked back at the queen mother who had already stood up, walked quickly to hug the queen mother, and said softly, "Mother, you must take care of yourself, don't let Ru'er worry outside the palace, Also, concubine Xiao Shu... and the emperor... You also asked the emperor to pay attention to his body. His poison has just been cured not long ago, so he should not work hard. This is what Ning Er said. The prince is still waiting for me to go back to have dinner together. I won't have dinner with you."

The queen mother said angrily, "You say you miss your mother, but what you miss most is your King Jin and your three children, right?" Then she said, "The Ai family knows, if you have nothing to do tomorrow, go to the palace to accompany the Ai family to recite sutras together." Bar."

Sima Ru opened his mouth and nodded, "I know, I will definitely go to the palace tomorrow to chant sutras with my mother."

"Tomorrow is the anniversary of your father's death. The emperor has forgotten it, and the mourning family must not forget it. You also recite a passage to your father, and it is not in vain for your father to love you." The Queen Mother said and waved her hands, " Go back, I'm tired of mourning."

Sima Ru bowed and stepped back, holding back the tears in her eyes until she walked out of the Xiangning Palace. At this moment, she felt her eyes darken. She raised her eyes and wiped away her tears.

Concubine Xiao Shu was slightly taken aback when she saw Sima Ru's expression, and soon recovered her usual expression, a faint smile curled up on the corner of her mouth, and said, "What's the matter, sister Huang? Did the empress talk about you?"

The moment Sima Ru saw Concubine Xiao Shu, she reached out to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and her expression returned to her indifference and alienation. Hearing Concubine Xiao Shu's question, she said flatly, "Congratulations to Concubine Xiao Shu, you have seized power and become the leader of the harem." No. 1."

"Look at what you said, sister, it's thanks to Princess Changning. If it wasn't for Princess Changning, how could I get rid of the opponents in the palace so quickly and become the master of the harem?" Concubine Xiao Shu played with herself. Looking at Sima Ru, the corners of her mouth slightly curled up, and she said calmly, "May I ask Miss Huang to thank Chang Ning for me, and thank her for everything she has done to us all this time, Xiao Yunshu, who I know best in my life is gratitude." I have reported it, and I will definitely take good care of her in the future."

Sima Ru narrowed her eyes and clenched her hands tightly. Soon she recovered her normal expression, looked up at Concubine Xiao Shu, and said with a light smile, "Really? Then I will definitely tell Ning'er that since you have nothing to do, I will go to you first." I'm out of the palace, Ning'er and the others are still waiting for me to leave the palace for dinner." He said with a faint smile, "Isn't Concubine Xiao Shu eating with her good daughter?"

Concubine Xiao Shu's face darkened, and she squinted at the eldest princess, damn it!How did this Sima Ru know that Xuan'er hadn't entered her palace gate for a long time. Although Jiao'er still wanted to enter her palace gate now, she was a little separated. It was after Qin Changning was poisoned that her Jiao'er There is a estrangement for her. Although it has improved a little in the past two days, there is still something between me and her!
Sensing Concubine Xiao Shu's hot gaze, Sima Ru sneered, and led Zi Cen away from the palace quickly.

At the gate of the palace, Sima Ru looked back at the majestic palace, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, the original reluctance and reluctance to let go, but at this moment he can let go so easily, it turns out that it is so simple to want to be disheartened matter.

"Go home." Sima Ru turned around and stepped on the carriage.
