Pink Conspiracy

When the head of the country resigned, the news reached the harem, and the queen mother was stunned for a while, thinking that she had heard it wrong.

She never thought that the head of the country would resign at this time, and she never even discussed it. She repeatedly confirmed to Duke Yan who had returned the news, and Duke Yan repeatedly said that the news was true. The head of the state repeatedly begged to resign in the morning court, and the emperor agreed.

When the queen mother heard that this was indeed the case, she was annoyed for a while, "Confused! But after being in jail, is he afraid to this point? Not even the officials?"

When Yan Gonggong saw the queen mother angry, he dared not say anything.

The queen mother was really frustrated. For a while, she felt that the sky had collapsed. The government office was the pillar of her survival in the harem. For so many years, because of the strong family backing, she could sit upright in the position of the queen mother. Go up and speak confidently with the son who has become the emperor.

Now that the Guozhang Mansion was almost in trouble, she only felt it was over, but she did not expect that the emperor would release the Guozhang Mansion without guilt. She felt that she was alive again, but before catching a breath, she heard that the Guozhang had resigned.

He actually resigned!

What about her and the queen? Has the state chief no longer cares about their aunts and nephews?

She remembered that the queen went out of the palace to visit the head of the state the day before. Later, she heard that she came back with the emperor. After returning, the emperor rested in the palace. Although I haven't heard of having **** by flipping the sign, the relationship has eased. She hadn't even bothered to ask the queen what she had said when she saw the governor when she returned to the governor's mansion that day. Now that she remembered it, she immediately told father-in-law Yan, "Go, go and ask the empress to mourn her house."

Duke Yan answered and went immediately.

Not long after, the queen was invited to the dowager palace. After giving the gift to the queen mother, the corners of her eyebrows and eyes were graceful, and she asked in a harmonious voice, "The queen, you sent Grandpa Yan to call me urgently, but what happened?"

The queen mother glanced at her and said angrily, "Of course something happened, something big happened."

The queen was startled, "Don't scare the children."

The queen mother said angrily, "Your father resigned, do you know?"

When the queen heard that it was for this, she was relieved and said with a smile, "So you called me in a hurry for this. I know. After returning to the house that day, Dad told me."

"What?" The queen mother stood up and said angrily, "Why didn't you tell Ai Jia?"

The queen was startled, remembering something, and her face flushed suddenly, "When she came out of the Guozhang's Mansion that day, the son went to the Rong'an Palace, and later returned to the palace with the emperor. For these two days, the emperor stayed in the Erchen Palace. , Erchen forgot to tell you..."

The queen mother pointed her finger at her, angered and said, "You...you are really mad and mourn your family. How can you forget about such a big thing? You think that the lady Yuegui has died for two nights. Can you hold the emperor's heart? Confused!"

When the queen heard her mention Concubine Yue, her eyes flushed, "You said that you let your son take this opportunity to relax your relationship with the emperor, and your son is indeed less accustomed to invite favors than that woman..."

The queen mother angrily said, "It is not a matter of being spoiled. How long can the emperor be spoiled? The support of our natal family is the basis of our survival in the harem. Do you understand what it means for your father to resign? Chaliang. His resignation means that the partisans who are attached to the mansion will soon fall apart. Without the support of our parents, life will be difficult."

The queen immediately said, "Father said that only if he retires, Yunchu can enter the dynasty. He has supported Xu Jiamen Ting and Guangzong Yaozu all his life. Now he is very tired, and it is time to retreat and enjoy the blessing. , Take a step back and cut the branches and leaves, the emperor did not dare to use Yunchu to enter the court."

The queen mother was startled, "Is that so?"

The queen nodded, "That's what Dad said."

The queen mother thought for a while, still very annoyed, "but Yun Chu is still young after all, so he handed over the palace to a child so quickly. Can he support it?"

The Queen said, "Father said, the government's mansion was difficult to support, and he could hardly support it, so he fell down, but Yunchu was not chaotic, calm and steady, and knew how to be better than him. When he entered the court, he knew how to advance and retreat. , The court of the Guozhang's Mansion will not fall." After the words fell, he said, "Since the court of the Guozhang's Mansion does not fall, then we don't have to worry."

After hearing the words, the queen mother finally calmed down, but she was still unwilling to say, "Although he said that, his resignation was too sudden and too fast. Always pave the way for Yunchu."

The queen heard the words and agreed with the Queen Mother, and felt that the head of the country had resigned too suddenly and too quickly, but since the official had resigned, the emperor had allowed it, and there was no way to save it.

The queen mother asked again, "The emperor allowed your father to resign this morning. Can you tell me what position is arranged for Yunchu?"

The queen shook her head.

The queen mother looked at Father Yan again, "This morning, after the emperor allowed the head of the country to resign, can you tell me what to do with the uncle Xiaoguo?"

Grandpa Yan hurriedly told the king's uncle that he had arranged a seven-tier sesame official, but the emperor might say that it was overkill.

When the queen mother heard the words, he said "the head of the country is confused", she sighed, "The emperor has been dissatisfied with the prosperity of the Xu family for these years. Now even if the head of the country retreats, he will let Yunchu enter the court. Will be given a heavy duty."

The queen nodded, thinking that the emperor treated her more gently than before, and it was always a good thing for her.

The aunts and nephews sat opposite for a while, each with their own thoughts.

After a while, someone outside reported, "Queen Mother, Uncle Xiaoguo is here."

The queen mother was startled, and when she looked at the queen, the queen was also a little startled, thinking that Xu Yunchu seemed to be displeased with the queen mother's palace and the queen's palace since childhood. He didn't summon him, so he didn't come to the harem easily, but he came now. For what?

The queen mother said immediately, "Hurry up and invite him in."

Grandpa Yan hurried out to invite someone.

Not long after, Xu Yunchu entered the inner hall and bowed to the empress dowager and queen.

The queen mother waved her hand, "Get up, no outsiders, no need to be polite." After the words fell, she saw the imperial decree exposed in his sleeve, and immediately asked, "Have you seen the emperor? What will the emperor give you?"

Xu Yunchu didn't say much when he heard the words, and handed the imperial edict to the Queen Mother.

The queen mother took it, and after reading it, she was immediately overjoyed, "The emperor has handed over these two major cases to you for thorough investigation? The same rights as Ye Chang's investigation?"

Xu Yunchu nodded.

The queen mother said, "Does this mean that the emperor treats you very seriously?"

Xu Yunchu smiled, "The emperor said that if the case is handled well, the official will be rewarded, and the case will not be condemned mercilessly."

The queen mother heard the words and looked at Xu Yunchu, "Do you have a bottom in your heart? Maybe you can handle these two cases as beautifully as Ye Shang?"

Xu Yunchu was gentle and honest, "This case is different from the Yuegui concubine's case. The Yuegui concubine's case is dangerous and difficult to handle, and requires the power of thunder. And for these two old cases, the emperor wants to clean up the officialdom, move the country, change the official style, and It is necessary for police officials to stabilize the government and maintain their health in preparation for another war in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Taking into account both, you cannot use the thunder force, you need to sharpen the knife with stone, and it will probably take some time to grind."

The queen mother was suddenly worried, "then isn't this very tricky?"

Xu Yunchu nodded, "It won't be easy."

The Queen Mother frowned, "Then you are sure?"

Xu Yunchu conservatively said, "I can still give it a try."

The Queen Mother pondered for a while, "Ye Chang first entered the court, and he broke the Yuegui concubine case in one fell swoop, and showed his skills. Although he is now in a coma with the emperor, no one in the court dared to dare anymore after this case. Underestimate him. He survived a catastrophe, and the official road will be unimpeded in the future. You are also a newcomer to the court, and the emperor is not biased, and entrusts you with a heavy responsibility. If your case is settled, then in the future, Xu The house is truly supported by you, and no one dares to underestimate you."

Xu Yunchu nodded, "I will do my best."

The queen mother looked at him and returned the imperial decree to him, saying with earnest and sincere words, "You child, you have been safe since you were young, and you are often overwhelmed with joy and anger. Now that you have accepted the imperial decree, you must be a little sure. The Ai family was worried. Your grandfather suddenly resigned in this way and did not pave the way for you. Your path will not be easy in the future. Now it seems that my worry is unnecessary."

Xu Yunchu said gently, "After I took the imperial decree, the emperor asked me to come and see you in the palace."

The queen mother was stunned, and after a while, she suddenly realized, "No wonder you came here uninvited today." When the words fell, she sighed, "The emperor is really the good son of the Ai family, and knows the heart of the Ai family best." After a pause, she said. "The Aijia has always been wronged for the government's mansion these years. It's rare that although he was dissatisfied, he didn't give birth to grudges. This time he didn't take the opportunity to run the state's mansion." After the words fell, she waved her hand, "Finally, you are Go ahead. Take care of the case. It must be handled beautifully, as the emperor intended."

Xu Yunchu nodded and left the Queen's Palace.

After Xu Yunchu left, the queen mother said to the queen, "Look, you still need to support yourself. If you have a son, the Ai's family won't be at an age, so worry about it."

The queen said sadly, "The son-chen did not give birth to a son, what can I do? Now it is impossible to have a son."

The queen mother sighed after hearing the words, "You are also fate, how has the harem been messed up by you over the years? The concubine is living hard in your hands, and the Ai family opens one eye and closes one eye to indulge you, causing the emperor's sons to not encourage , Did not let you be pregnant with a dragon? It also harmed the emperor so far, there is no adult prince besides the prince. In the future, this throne... hey..."

The queen couldn't help worrying, "The queen said yes." After the words fell, she lowered her voice and said, "The prince can't be born to the children. Now the concubine Yue Gui is dead, and the prince is disabled again. The emperor will abolish him sooner or later. You can’t let a handicapped person sit on the emperor. The child minister wants to choose a young prince from the princes born and raised by his concubines. After my name, do you think this will work?"

The queen mother immediately said, "I have considered this matter before, but because the emperor favored the concubine and concubine Yue, I didn't mention it, knowing that I would not mention him. Now..." She thought about it, shook her head. "Don't take this matter too hastily. You have to wait to see what the emperor thinks. After all, those little princes are too young to be troublesome..."

The queen heard the words, "The emperor is still young. If the young prince adopts, he will be well brought up in front of me since I was a child, and I will be able to know grace when I grow up."

The Queen Mother nodded, "That's true, but I still can't be too hasty, wait a minute."
