The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 357 Extremely Happy
Another half an hour passed, and Cao Liushi was already annoyed by waiting.

At this moment, when the maid reminded someone to come, Cao Liu knew that the matter was over.

But what she didn't expect was that it was Concubine Duan's confidant maid Lingsu who came out to greet her this time.

As soon as Ling Su entered the door, he said: "Madam, the empress asked the servants to invite you into the palace, saying that I haven't seen you for a long time!"

The meaning of these words seemed to be that he didn't want to see her, Cao Liu slandered.

"Your Majesty has wronged me, it's because the concubine didn't go to see him, but the concubine didn't see him!"

Speaking of this, Mrs. Cao Liu walked to the door of the room, looked back at Lingsu and said, "It's really too difficult to see your mother!"

Lingsu could understand Cao Liu's resentment, so she didn't waste any time at the moment, and immediately said: "Ma'am, let's go to the palace with the slaves, don't let the empress wait!"

"Also ask the girl to lead the way!"

Immediately afterwards, Cao Liushi followed Lingsu and walked out slowly into the depths of the Forbidden Palace.

After turning around seven times and eight times inside, it took another half an hour before the two of them came to the outside of Xianfu Palace.

"Madam, please come in!"

Walking ahead, Lingsu guided Cao Liu into the palace gate and brought her into the hall of the main hall.

"Ma'am, please wait a moment, this servant is going to report to the empress!"

After Lingsu left, Cao Liushi sat down slowly, but saw that the outside was busy, and looked closely at the maids preparing lunch.

She came early in the morning and delayed a lot of time to see Concubine Duan, but now it's lunch time.

"Ma'am, the empress has arrived at the side hall, please move!"

Only then did Cao Liu get up, and left the hall with the maid.

At this moment in the side hall, Concubine Duan was already seated under Lingsu's service, and six or seven maids beside her were serving dishes, and two sets of bowls and chopsticks had already been placed on the table.

"The concubine kowtows to see the empress!"

Looking at Cao Liu who was kneeling on the ground outside the side hall, Concubine Duan in plain clothes raised her hand and said, "Get up!"

"Come and sit down, a family doesn't have to be so divided!"

Just listen to these words, Cao Liushi will definitely not take it seriously, she respects and fears her sister-in-law.

Why doesn't a family have to be so divided? If you really think so, it will lead your natal family to such a dead end?Some things are not good enough.

Carefully sitting on the seat, Cao Liu said in a low voice: "Thank you, Ma'am!"

Holding the Buddhist beads in her hand, Concubine Duan said calmly: "After waiting for so long, I must be hungry too, don't blame me... let's eat something first!"

"How dare a concubine!" Cao Liu said in a very restrained manner.

After waiting for the maids to serve the dishes, Concubine Duan said: "This time is different from the past, let's just eat some!"

Picking up the chopsticks, Concubine Duan personally brought food to Mrs. Cao Liu, which was a rare courtesy.

It seems that Concubine Duan was deeply shocked by the fact that Cao Jiasheng returned to his hometown to worship his ancestors, so she showed her favor to Cao Liu.

Sure enough, Concubine Duan put down her chopsticks and said, "Brother, you plan to go back to your hometown?"

Cao Liushi smiled slightly, and said slowly: "I have this idea, but it depends on what the empress thinks!"

Speaking of this, Cao Liu's face showed embarrassment and said: "But there is a more urgent matter that needs to be reported to the empress!"

"What's the matter?"

Cao Liushi looked around, and the meaning couldn't be more obvious.

"You all leave!"

Including Ling Su, all the eunuchs and maids of honor withdrew from the side hall.

"Speak!" Concubine Duan looked into Cao Liu's eyes.

"Ma'am, Jiaxun is back!"

To Cao Liushi's surprise, Concubine Duan was not too surprised at the moment, as if she knew what was going on.

Concubine Duan definitely didn't know what was going on. The reason why she was calm was because she had given up.

"If he can escape from the meeting, he is also a good fortune teller. You can tell him instead of me... I'm sorry for my sister!"

According to this sentence, Cao Liu can infer that Concubine Duan did not know what happened.

"Your Majesty won't ask, where did Jiaxun come back from?"

"where?"

"He came back from Longyou, and Liu De came back with him!"

Upon hearing the word Longyou, Concubine Duan immediately became uneasy, and asked quickly: "They went to Longyou? Can you see Xun'er? How is Xun'er?"

If it wasn't for the purpose of giving her son the crown prince, how could Concubine Duan admit her son's death, so at this moment she is eager to know Zhao Yanxun's situation.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness is still alive!"

The chopsticks in Concubine Duan's hand slipped, and she was no longer dignified at this moment, but an old mother who was so excited that she wept.

The more she hopes for something, the more Concubine Duan fears that all this is unreal when the news is confirmed.

Wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes, Concubine Duan quickly asked: "Really? My son is still alive?"

Cao Liushi nodded quickly, and replied: "His Royal Highness is still alive, and he is alive and well!"

"When they arrived in Longyou, what happened?" Concubine Duan asked.

"Jiaxun and the others said that there are many monsters in Longyou, but His Highness has already occupied Yuanyang City, so it is safe and secure!"

"That's good, that's good!" Concubine Duan said repeatedly.

Following this news, a ray of light appeared in the gloomy sky of Concubine Duan's life.

Immediately afterwards, Concubine Duan scolded: "This rebellious son, why didn't he follow back, look at me, a mother!"

Mrs. Cao and Liu didn't know how to answer these words, but Concubine Duan gave the answer herself.

"This kid, it's a good thing he didn't come back. If he really came back... I, a mother, might not be able to protect him!"

Now that the emperor's grandson is in charge of the country, the balance of power between Concubine Duan and the opponents has changed greatly.

In other words, the emperor's grandson himself took over the throne and has become the mainstream voice in the court, and Zhao Yanxun basically has no chance.

Not only did he have no chance, he would still be a thorn in his side and a thorn in his flesh when he came back, and he might even be killed.

"Your Majesty, you are wrong about this. According to what Jiaxun said, His Highness is now a strong soldier, who can harm him!"

"Also, it is said that His Highness is the Son of Destiny, and even God has manifested himself!"

Concubine Duan smiled, and said: "What is the manifestation from the heavens, the youngest is so incomprehensible, can you believe what he says?"

Cao Liu said: "Madam, it's hard to explain this matter clearly. If it wasn't for God's blessing, how could His Highness be safe and sound?"

Concubine Duan nodded, whether it is God's blessing or not, as long as her son is alive, it is a good thing.

After asking some more about her son's situation, Concubine Duan really felt relieved. At this moment, her mood has changed drastically.

In the end, Concubine Duan solemnly instructed: "Sister-in-law, after you go back, you must hide Jiaxun and the others. Everything is waiting for me to arrange!"

This was the first time Concubine Duan called her sister-in-law, so Cao Liushi was stunned at the moment.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, Jiasheng understands all these things, and he will arrange them properly!"

"That's good, that's good... come, come, the food is cold, hurry up and eat!"

So Concubine Duan brought food for Cao Liushi again. This enthusiastic appearance broke Cao Liushi's three views.

Concubine Duan was very happy with this meal, and her appetite was much better than before.

After the meal, the two chatted again. In addition to learning about their son's situation as much as possible, Concubine Duan also chatted with Cao Liu.

Maybe there will be troubles in the future, and Concubine Duan naturally has to win over the Cao family.
