It’s Better to be the Empress Dowager

Master Tang's forehead was cold. After Zhao Chengjun put his hand on it, it seemed to be colder than her skin, and Master Tang shivered secretly.

In a hurry, Master Tang almost bit his tongue: "Master, why are you here? How about Dujuan, why don't you know how to report?"

Du Juan and others stood in the back, with a miserable expression and speechlessness. Master Tang also knew that this kind of thing could not blame Dujuan, they were just serving girls, and their lives were in the hands of Zhao Chengjun, so how could they dare to fight against Zhao Chengjun.

Teacher Tang was grateful again that she had destroyed the evidence. She quickly recovered her expression, and pretending to be calm, she led Zhao Chengjun into the door: "Lord, please come in. The little girl was resting in the house just now. I don't know how the prince is coming. She was so negligent. Please forgive me."

Zhao Chengjun just smiled, seemingly not suspicious of Tang Shishi's rhetoric. After he entered the house, he glanced at random and said: "I heard that Ji Xinxian invited you and Ren Yujun to a small banquet today. Are you unhappy with them? Why did you come back early?"

Zhao Chengjun's voice is not hurried or slow, it sounds very gentle, but every word seems to be under the pressure of Qianjun, and if he is careless, he will be smashed to pieces. Master Tang smiled and said, "I don't think it's interesting, so I just left."

Zhao Chengjun took a deep look at Tang Shishi, then turned and walked towards the next room. Master Tang was startled for a moment, and hurriedly followed.

Zhao Chengjun casually looked at the things on Duobao Pavilion, and said slowly: "I heard the maid who gave Zhao Zixun said that you are dizzy on the road and can't stand still. Such a big thing, the person who is waiting doesn't even know?"

Du Juan and the others were shocked, and they all knelt down, their faces turned pale: "Lord..."

Zhao Chengjun just raised his finger, Du Juan did not dare to continue to argue. Master Tang was a little panicked, she forced herself to calm down, and said, "Master, dizziness only appears occasionally, it's not a big problem. I didn't let them get a doctor. If you blame it, please blame me."

"You got it right, I can't bear to punish you?" Zhao Chengjun paced slowly in the room. He seemed to see something from the corner of his eyes and walked towards the corner.

When Master Tang saw his movements, his hands and feet were cold and his blood faded. She finally knew what Zhao Chengjun was looking at on the Duobao Pavilion just now, and he was looking for evidence that Master Tang had hidden.

Zhao Chengjun walked to the brass beasthead incense burner in the corner, lifted the pierced stove lid, and picked up the dust with incense sticks. He smiled lightly when he saw the different gray in it.

Master Tang was like falling into the ice cellar, his mind buzzed, and the whole person couldn't respond. Du Juan was afraid that Zhao Chengjun would really punish Master Tang, so he hurriedly took two steps and kowtowed: "The prince, the girl has been recuperating recently, and I don't know what cause and effect are right or wrong. All slaves and maidservants have misled the girl. Please be careful not to confess the crime. Girl, countless mistakes are the servant’s fault."

Zhao Chengjun threw the incense stick back to its original position, and said lightly: "Oh? To deceive the top and the bottom, knowing but not reporting, these two crimes alone are enough to die."

Master Tang was shocked and looked up at Zhao Chengjun incredulously: "Lord!"

The cuckoo's face turned white instantly. Master Tang saw Zhao Chengjun's expression, like being struck by lightning, and his mind instantly became sober.

She knew that Zhao Chengjun was not joking, what he said was true. Master Tang was flustered, and immediately raised his skirt and knelt down: "Master, one person does everything, the other person. I did something wrong, you have to punish..."

Almost at the same time, Du Juan kowtow and said: "The slave and maid are willing to receive the punishment. Lord, the girl, she..."

"Enough." Zhao Chengjun's voice was not loud, but he stopped the two in an instant. Zhao Chengjun couldn't discern his joy and anger, and said, "Let her speak."

Du Juan pursed her mouth, she looked at Master Tang, her eyes unable to hide the anxiety. Teacher Tang suddenly felt that this scene was very familiar. When Zhao Zixun rescued Zhou Shunhua in front of many guests, Zhao Chengjun was like this.

He didn't say a word to Zhao Zixun, he just said that Zhou Shunhua was killed. In the end, no matter how hard the bones were, Zhao Zixun had to bow his head, and honestly follow the trajectory specified by Zhao Chengjun.

Now, this person has been replaced by her. Of course she could die without admitting it, but then, Cuckoo and other maids who served her would not escape death. In the future, even if there is a new maid, who would dare to have a heart-to-heart with Master Tang?

Master Tang knelt on the ground, and for a moment he didn't know where tonight, as if he had lost his perception of other parts of his body. Zhao Chengjun looked at Master Tang calmly and said, "Don't worry, you think about it slowly. Go outside and kneel."

The last sentence was for Dujuan and others. Dujuan bit her lip worryingly, and she was dragged away by other maid covering her mouth.

The door closed gently, and when the wooden door snapped, it made a light click. Master Tang seemed to be awakened by this sound, suddenly his nose sour, and tears came down.

When Zhao Chengjun saw it, he was so angry that he smiled: "I'm so good, I know how to use tears as a weapon? I might as well tell you, this time, you don't do anything useful."

Teacher Tang's tears fell like broken beads, dripping down his cheeks, completely unbearable. Master Tang held back his sobs and said, "People die for money, and birds die for food. I just want to make myself better. Is it wrong?"

Even if he could ask himself if he was wrong, Zhao Chengjun smiled back and nodded: "Okay, you are really great. What I said to you before, you don't take it to heart. If you do this, you don't care about me. Where, where do you put yourself? What are you dissatisfied with that can make you belittle yourself like this?"

"Do you think I am willing?" Teacher Tang’s grievance burst like a flood, and tears became more and more fierce. "If I can be the mistress of the house, which woman in the world would be willing to be a concubine? I am different from Zhou Shunhua and Lu Yufei. I never have a way back."

"I said, you don't need to do anything, just rest assured..."

Zhao Chengjun did not finish, but was interrupted by Tang Shishi: "I can indeed live a stable life now, but after the princess enters the door? I am the only woman who has served in the foreign study, or was sent from the palace. How can the princess let me go? The prince, you are the nobleman of Tianhuang, and the princess regards you as the heaven. You naturally don’t understand the struggles of the lower-class women, and on the other hand, you feel that they are not strong enough. I want to dismiss it and want to bend for five buckets of rice, but am I worthy? ?"

Zhao Chengjun has interrupted other people's lengthy talk countless times because of impatience, but now it is his turn to be interrupted. Zhao Chengjun endured it. When he heard the words behind Master Tang, he frowned, surprised and surprised: "What are you talking about? What princess?"

"It has been spread in the city of Xiping that the prince is going to marry the second lady of the Xi family as his concubine." Teacher Tang said with a wry smile, and asked, "Master, I know that your sweetheart is not good. But the prince is fair, you think Miss Xi Can it hold me?"

Zhao Chengjun was silent for a long time. He was accustomed to making decisions and then being seen by others before the big event was over. It was really a very dangerous thing, so Zhao Chengjun was used to burying everything in his heart without knowing it or clarifying it. Zhao Chengjun naturally knew that Madam Xi and Xi Yunchu had misunderstood, but this kind of thing was unclear. The Xi family did not explicitly say that they would marry him. Zhao Chengjun could not take the initiative to clarify, and he also needed time to cover the person he really liked.

Zhao Chengjun can only let it go. In fact, he feels that anyone who knows him a little bit knows that this rumor is ridiculous. He said several times in front of Mrs. Xi and Xi Yunchu that he had no intention of marrying. Can he still make a mistake and face himself?

Everyone in the shop also said that it was enough to listen to the rumors. He didn't expect that even Tang Shishi would believe it, and he seemed unwavering. Zhao Chengjun was angry and funny. He slammed Master Tang's finger and hated that iron can't become a steel track: "Look at your brain, I have never used it before."

Zhao Chengjun was really angry, and did not restrain his strength. Master Tang was in terrible pain, covering his forehead, his tears pattered, and the tears fell even more fiercely.

"I haven't done anything yet, what are you crying for?" Zhao Chengjun cursed in an angry way. Seeing Master Tang couldn't stop crying, he couldn't bear it, he said, "Get up. Wipe away your tears."

Shishi Tang stood up, obviously wronged and didn't dare to violate Zhao Chengjun's words, so he could only wipe his eyes while crying. Zhao Chengjun looked badly, don't look over his eyes, and asked coldly, "Where did the medicine come from?"

This is his palace, Zhao Chengjun knows. With Master Tang's ability, it is impossible to come into contact with such things.

Master Tang's heart trembled, crying even more frightened. Zhao Chengjun looked at him coldly and secretly pressured: "Don't tell me?"

Master Tang knelt down and kept shaking his head, without saying a word, but silently shed tears. Her eyes are round and charming, watery when she is tearful, especially crystal clear. Zhao Chengjun looked down at her, she was so beautiful that she half-faced and cried silently.

He knew that the beauty snake would most likely pretend to be pitiful and buy innocent, but he couldn't bear to break free every time he saw it.

Master Tang lowered his head just right. She knew that she was the most beautiful from this angle. Her mother once said that when she looked down like this, even a woman couldn't help but want to agree to all the requirements of Master Tang, let alone a man? Lin Wanxi is therefore very worried about Qi Jingsheng's future. She feels that Qi Jingsheng is honest and sincere, soaking in books all the year round, even her temperament has become simple. Once you encounter a woman like Master Tang, who is reckless and murderous, isn't it impossible to resist and be pinched to death?

Master Tang was dismissive at the beginning. She has never spoken for men. Who makes men in the world love beautiful women? Since they like them, they meet beautiful women and are driven by women's manipulation. Don't they deserve it? Don't be greedy for beauty if you have the ability.

The two had tacitly agreed that Master Tang gave Zhao Zixun medicine. Master Tang is not afraid of being punished, but they dare not confess to Granny Wu. Once these people are implicated, her family is over.

Master Tang could not say, but he could not offend King Jing, so he had to use his unique weapon to make King Jing feel soft. Once this trick worked well, but this time, Master Tang cried for a long time without getting any feedback. Teacher Tang gradually became a little panicked, she knew that Zhao Chengjun had been looking at her, her eyes were heavy and unpredictable. Master Tang even wondered if his beauty weapon had failed. Could it be that beauty tricks only work for stupid men?

Zhao Chengjun moved when Master Tang was uneasy. He seemed to sigh, and said very softly: "You don't believe me. You don't want to believe me either."

Teacher Tang said that Zhao Chengjun's words were really unreasonable. He was the prince and held the military and political power. Of course, he hoped everyone around him would be honest with him. However, the problem is that in addition to being honest, Master Tang wants to survive.

She wants to survive in the hands of the future Princess Jing, in the palace of Jing, and even more so in the hands of the Queen Mother. There are too many things she has to worry about, she can't stand any risks, and she is not only carrying her life.

Master Tang looked down and did not speak, Zhao Chengjun was not surprised, and could even guess what Master Tang was thinking now.

Zhao Chengjun came here in breath, now it was time to say, and the warning was also warned, but he didn't feel any joy. Love is really a very unreasonable thing, let him think and calculate, intimidate and tempt, people who don't like it just don't like it.

Master Tang likes her former fiancé, and even if the two are separated, she will empathize to Zhao Zixun, who is similar in age and temperament. Obviously she had beaten so many times, she was still desperate.

If it weren't for love-driven, such a clear situation, it would be impossible for Teacher Tang to fail to see through. She is vain and victorious, she should have seen it early, and following Zhao Chengjun is far more rewarding than following Zhao Zixun.

But she didn't. Apart from love, Zhao Chengjun couldn't think of any explanation.

Zhao Chengjun can force her to give up Zhao Zixun, and even he can now let Master Tang have no choice. But what's the use? Get her body but not her heart.

Zhao Chengjun finally sighed a long sigh. It is better to take a step back and leave the decentness of both sides.

Zhao Chengjun said: "Get up. Don't cry, no matter who the princess is in the future, I won't let her offend you. Although I am not going to say anything, but I still dare to say these things, you can rest assured. Other thoughts Don’t move anymore, so you can stay in the house to recuperate. Don’t go out until you understand where the medicine comes from."

Teacher Tang's tears were on her eyelashes. She knew that she had passed this level, and Zhao Chengjun finally compromised. But this time, she didn't feel any ease.

Although Zhao Chengjun is cruel, but a man of great promise. He said that he would not let Xi Yunchu hurt her, so he could really do it.

For some reason, Tang Shishi asked, "Master, when will you and the princess get married?"

"It's hard to tell." Zhao Chengjun lifted his clothes and walked outside, wondering if it was an illusion by Master Tang. She vaguely heard Zhao Chengjun say, "There will be no more princesses."

The voice was so soft that Master Tang almost thought he had heard a hallucination. She was a little startled, and just about to ask Zhao Chengjun why there would be no more princesses, he opened the door and went out without reluctance.

Master Tang stood in place, the light outside the door shone on her face, making her eyes black and white, like crystal jade. The spring outside the house is deep, with red and willow green, and the fragrance of pollen mixed in the wind. Zhao Chengjun walked away with his back to this spring scene.

Master Tang was suddenly in a trance, and even had an urge to chase him out. Tang family, Queen Mother Yao, hero and heroine, plot, all calculations are not important anymore.

She just moved a step, then stopped silently. Master Tang lowered her head mockingly, what is she thinking, is she crazy? That is King Jing.
