Queen Mother, she just wants to lie down

Ruan Qing looked at the ghostly expressions on the two people's faces, and couldn't help but have a hint of teasing in his eyes: "Why, in your eyes, the queen mother is so unreasonable?"

"Mother, Queen Mother..." The emperor and the royal concubine looked away with shame on their faces, rather uncomfortably.

"Okay, I'm just teasing you. After all, I've been acting too ridiculously in the past few months, which has caused a psychological shadow on you.

Now that I have figured it out, I will never do those inexplicable things again.

However, there is an ugly saying in front of me. Although I fully support the appointment of Wang as queen, it does not mean that there will be no resistance.

The Ai family hasn't had much involvement in matters in the court, so I don't know much about it, but I understand one thing.

The relationship between courtiers and kings is often a kind of wrestling. If the king is strong and has power, the courtiers will show weakness.

Vice versa, it has only been two years since our mother and son came to the forefront of the world, and the previous kings' fight for the right to inherit the throne had already divided the courtiers into countless factions..." Ruan Qing changed the subject.

In order not to alert others to the details, it was not appropriate to disclose the details to the emperor for the time being, but there were some things she had to understand.

If the original owner had not been tricked, these words should have been spoken to the emperor when he first ascended the throne.

"Mother, my son knows it well." Xie Huaijin's face became more solemn when he mentioned the court.

As his mother said, he, the new emperor, did not have much say in the court.

Mother and son have no foundation, and it has been less than two years since they officially entered the court.

During the year and a half he was serving as the crown prince, the late emperor had just experienced the tragedy of his sons seizing the throne, and he was particularly ill with suspicion.

As a newly minted prince, he basically only listened with his ears in the court, rarely spoke, and he did not dare to form cliques for personal gain.

Except for the Crown Princess's natal family standing behind him, the rest of the direct lineage can be ignored.

After the death of the late emperor, and after he ascended the throne, the forces of all parties were intertwined, and it could be said that he, the new king, was having a difficult time in the court.

Precisely because the court affairs were so difficult, the queen mother, who was supposed to share weal and woe with him, was still worried.

In the past few days, I tried to make things difficult for him in different ways every day, made trouble for him, and even wanted to interfere in the affairs of the court.

He almost pushed away the Wang family, the only one who truly supported him, which made him feel particularly anxious and angry.

Fortunately, the queen mother finally figured it out, and the wise and reasonable queen mother before was back.

As long as he has the support of his mother, he is not afraid no matter how difficult the court affairs are.

The situation in the past twenty years was so difficult, but we survived.

Now as long as mother and son work together, victory will belong to them. The young emperor quietly clenched his fists.

Three days later, after the morning business was over, the emperor proposed in front of the ministers that he would make the royal concubine his queen.

And asked Qin Tianjian to choose a suitable day to hold the ceremony of sealing the queen.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Baili, the Minister of Rites, jumped out: "Your Majesty, if you want to be granted the title of Queen, have you obtained the permission of the Queen Mother?"

Since she came to Cining Palace, the Empress Dowager has had a lot of trouble with the Emperor over the matter of being granted the title of empress. It is not a secret to the officials in the court.

This matter can go on for months without any resolution, and there are many people behind it who are adding fuel to the flames.

In previous years' battles between kings, too many ministers were involved. Jiang Baili was from Concubine Li's family back then.

Because there are too many courtiers involved, if all the people involved are raped and killed, the entire court will be more than half empty, and the government will be suspended by then.

The late emperor was helpless and only dealt with a few leaders. The others picked them up heavily and put them down gently.

Because of this situation, Xie Huaijin was in an extremely difficult situation after he ascended the throne.

"Of course I got it." The young emperor glanced at Jiang Baili and replied.

"Even with the Queen Mother's permission, I don't think this is the right time to be granted the title of Queen Mother.

His Majesty has only been on the throne for more than three months, and the drought in the south has not yet been fully dealt with.

The war on the northwest border has not subsided..." Jiang Bai raised his neck and began to talk in a long way.

"It's ridiculous. Your Majesty has already ascended the throne. He originally had a crown prince. The former crown prince and now the noble concubine is in the middle palace. It is a matter of course. Wouldn't it be ridiculous for you to stop it with floods and small-scale wars?"

But before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Taichang Temple Qing Yu Chengliang.

Yu Chengliang is Wang Guifei's uncle and shares weal and woe with the Wang family. His niece is in the middle palace, which is of no harm to the Yu family. Naturally, he fully supports her.

"That's not what Mr. Yu said..." As soon as he finished speaking, someone else stood up to object.

The entire court soon fell into a quarrel, and the quarrel continued until the court retreated, but there was no result.

In the afternoon of the same day, when it was close to Shenshi, a luxurious four-wheel carriage drove into the palace.

At this time, Ruan Qing had just gotten out of his inner treasury and was taking a walk in the garden to calm down.

The weather in early September is moderately hot and cold, making it a good time for leisure travel.

If it were not for being surrounded by jackals, the situation would not be so wonderful. She would have taken people to the palace to enjoy the leisure and entertainment time of the top dignitaries in ancient times.

Instead of sitting in the palace and sulking at all kinds of bad things.

"Liang Fan, after Marquis Chengen left the palace, there weren't any monsters in their house, right?"

Ruan Qing turned around for a while, thinking of Marquis Chengen who she had kicked out three days ago, and asked.

"Back to the Queen Mother, I haven't heard of any inappropriate behavior so far."

Liang Fan thought of how the Queen Mother was so angry that she couldn't speak when she saw her inner treasury. He hesitated for a moment and answered.

The Queen Mother is angry. Don't tell the Queen Mother about the ugly incident between Cheng'enhou's son and his concubine. The uncle and nephew almost got into a fight over the oiran in the flower house.

"Liang Fan!" Ruan Qing heard the hesitation in his tone and turned to look at him.

Liang Fan was about to talk when he saw Feng Xi walking over in a hurry.

He walked up to Ruan Qing in a few steps, bowed and said, "Queen Mother, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is here."

"Feng Xi, didn't I give you leave? Why are you here?" Ruan Qing's eyes fell on him and she raised her eyebrows slightly.

Since Liang Fan was replaced three days ago, he has not called Feng Xi again.

Good guy, if she doesn't summon them, they will run out on their own. Has her authority as the Queen Mother been relaxed to this extent?

"I met him outside, and knowing that he has always been valued by you, I asked him to come over and report.

What, Feng Xi made you unhappy? " Before Feng Xi could answer, a loud, sweet yet majestic female voice came over.

Following this voice, a beautiful woman in her forties with elegant palace makeup emerged from a rockery and walked towards her.

But I saw that she was wearing a gorgeous purple palace dress and a peony bun with two lifelike phoenix hairpins inserted into the bun, revealing half of her slender and white neck.

Although he is over forty years old and looks gorgeous, he still makes people unable to open their eyes.

This girl is the late emperor's sister, the most powerful Princess Ronghua in this dynasty.

The late emperor had two elder sisters and three younger sisters.

One of them was broken more than 20 years ago, and two more were later involved in the battle between kings. One died and the other was exiled.

There are only two eldest princesses in existence, and one of them is the eldest princess Ronghua, who is the same mother as the late emperor.
