After the zombies traveled through time, they were tricked by the villain into becoming a stepmother

People always say that no one knows a child better than his mother, but the reverse is also true. The emperor noticed the empress dowager's slight discomfort, and his face turned cold. He turned around and instructed Wei Zongguan.

"Go, call that troublemaker over to me!"

"Yes!"

Chief Steward Wei turned around and left to invite Princess Shengping in person.

The Queen Mother sighed again, waved her hand to send all the palace maids away, and then she gave earnest advice.

"Why are you so angry with your own child? It was indeed I who did not allow her to come to pay her respects. Why did she have to go back and forth in such hot weather? It's not easy for everyone."

"Mother, please stop covering up for her. How old is she and still a child? She is not someone like Xiao Qi who was born with a flawed character, but she is no less noisy than Xiao Qi!

Haven't I been tolerant enough over the years?

If I had tried it when the late emperor was still alive, if I had dared to act like these bastards when I was young, I would have been reincarnated several times!"

The Queen Mother was silent. Apart from sighing, there was really nothing to advise. After all, when Shengping went crazy, it was really a headache.

"Mother knows that it has not been easy for you. When you were young, you didn't enjoy the blessings of being a prince. You only suffered. That's why I take good care of my children. Mother understands."

The old lady felt extremely distressed when she saw her son's graying temples.

"Mother is not advising you for Shengping's sake, mother is advising you because she loves her son.

Suer, even if it's just for your old mother's sake, you must not be too angry. You must take good care of yourself and be more at ease, do you understand?

Please don’t let me, your mother, send off another young person before her…”

Perhaps because she is really too old, the Queen Mother is always thinking about the past. Whenever she thinks of her daughter who passed away early, she can't help but cry.

"Mom, my son is fine, please don't cry. You are so old, what will happen if you cry and hurt yourself?"

The emperor quickly put down his teacup and softened his tone, trying to comfort his mother.

"Don't worry, I didn't kill the third brother even though he did such a treasonous thing. I promise I won't kill the other bastards as long as they don't use their father's sword to kill them! Mom, don't cry."

The more her son gave in, the sadder the queen mother felt. Everyone was eager to get the throne of the royal family, and everyone dreamed of it. But who could know how pitiful the person sitting on the throne was?

The king and his subjects are always deceitful to each other, and the fathers and sons are always killing each other.

Her son, he had been fighting with his father and brothers since he was young, and now he is old and still wants to fight with his own children. What a miserable life he has lived all his life?

"Su'er, I'm sorry for you. I shouldn't have given birth to you in the royal family. You've never lived a peaceful life. I'm really sorry. Don't be born in my womb in the next life. Go find a normal family with loving parents, and don't come to me again..."

"Mother! What are you talking about?"

The emperor took a handkerchief and wiped the empress dowager's tears. Seeing his mother becoming increasingly old and frail, some sadness flashed in his eyes.

"The happiest thing in my life is being Mei Ruoying's son!

Then who should I look for in my next life if I don't look for you? If there wasn't such a good mother like you, who could have given birth to such a good son like me?

No, you must be my mother in your next life!"

“Puff~~”

The empress dowager, who was originally sad, burst into laughter because of her son's laughter. She reached out to take the handkerchief to wipe her tears, and then nodded at him twice in an unpleasant manner.

"I told you that Xiao Qi is just like that, but you refused to admit it even if I beat you to death. Look at how unreasonable and overbearing she is. They really are father and daughter, they are alike in every way!"

"Your Majesty, what you said is wrong. I am much better than Dai Xiaoqi! Her stupidity is all due to the failure of that old bastard Chu Zhankui to teach her well. It has nothing to do with me!"

This time the Queen Mother was really amused and laughed out loud.

"Hahaha, you loved bullying the Chu family kids when you were little, how come you still can't be a good ruler now that you're old?

According to what you said, the good things about Xiao Qi are all up to you, and the bad things are because the Chu family didn't teach him well, right?"

"Well, to paraphrase Xiao Qi, seven or eight is about six! Hahahaha..."

The rare and happy laughter of the mother and daughter came from the main hall, making Chief Steward Wei, who had just returned with his men, breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, His Majesty calmed down quickly today, otherwise they, the palace servants, would have been the ones to suffer the consequences.

"Get out of the way! You're blocking my way!"

Princess Shengping was still dressed in a fiery red dress, which added an extra layer of heat to the already hot weather.

Manager Wei quickly bowed and apologized.

"It's all my fault. I'm so sorry. Your Highness, Lord Shengping, please!"

The attitude is absolutely respectful and humble.

Princess Shengping snorted coldly.

"You little dog slave, you've climbed up another ladder, right? You know, things change over time, and you never know when they'll turn to the other side. It's always better to leave some room for error, don't you think?"

"Your Highness Princess Shengping's teachings are very good. I have made note of them. The Empress Dowager and His Majesty have been waiting in the palace for a long time. Otherwise, you should go and pay your respects first and then teach me a lesson later."

"Then why are you still blocking the road? Get out of the way!"

After Shengping shouted the man away, she walked away with her head held high, her chest puffed out, and her skirt lifted, leaving Wei, the steward, still smiling and bowing as he watched her go.

It was not until the fiery red skirt could no longer be seen that the young eunuch Wang Quan, who was following not far behind Chief Steward Wei, came over to express his indignation.

"Dad, isn't Princess Shengping too arrogant? Now the Xu family is gone, and the crown prince is gone too, no, how dare she be so arrogant and domineering?"

"Shut up!"

The smile on Chief Steward Wei's face quickly disappeared. He looked up at the palace servants around him. Everyone quickly lowered their heads and stood as straight as a pillar, as if they had not heard anything just now.

There was a flash of annoyance in his eyes, and he raised his hand to pinch this stupid thing that could never be taught.

"Why were we so blind to carefully choose a fool like you as our son?

You must remember this! Even if the princes and princesses have lost their power, they are still the masters. How can they allow their servants to abuse them?

If you do something stupid again, I will beat you to death myself. That way, someone will peel off your skin and let you suffer those trivial crimes!"

"Oh, Dad, please have mercy on me. I won't do it again! Can't I just keep my mouth shut from now on? If you beat me to death, who will take care of you in your old age?"

Eunuch Wang grimaced in pain. Although he knew that his godfather was saying all this for his own good, wasn't he also standing up for his godfather just now?

"I am just being filial, why do you always hit me?"

"If you can't control your mouth, I'll beat you to death!"

Steward Wei slapped him again in hatred, then flicked his whisk and hurried into the hall to serve his master.
