Prince Jin followed him to the Queen Mother's bedroom.

The emperor has indeed arrived.

As soon as he came in, the emperor saw the empress dowager being supported by the palace maids walking back and forth. He couldn't help but speak directly, with his sarcasm at the maximum level.

"What news is your mother waiting for? Are you so restless?"

Can't sit still?

The Queen Mother looked at him, a hint of guilt flashing in her eyes, but she quickly straightened her back.

"Your Majesty, what does this mean? You come here after court to question me?"

"Question? I would like to ask, it's still early, and my mother should not have woken up at this time in the past. Why did she get up for a walk today?"

And he was "walking" back and forth in the bedroom.

Is this because none of the people we sent out last night came back?

"I dreamt about your father last night..."

The Queen Mother had just said half a sentence when the voice of Prince Jin was heard outside.

"Queen Dowager, please don't talk nonsense. My brother has never been visited in a dream by our father. How could you dream of him?"

That old man had nothing better to do than to send a message to the Queen Mother in her dream?

What are you thinking? You're lying, as soon as you hear it.

The emperor was also a little annoyed.

Everyone said that the emperor had appeared in their dreams, but he hadn't dreamed of it? Why, was he so disliked by the emperor?

how can that be!

Therefore, it must be that the Queen Mother lied!

The Queen Mother's lying to him was also considered deceiving the emperor!

"Mother, there are no outsiders here, so you don't have to lie. I'm here to tell you something. Zhu Minghao is dead!"

The King of Jin added casually, "He died at the second watch last night. He died in prison. He was just a few steps away from the prison gate. If he had only taken a few steps, he would have been out of prison."

Are you angry?

The Queen Mother was struck by lightning.

She didn't react for a long time and her whole body was frozen.

"Brother, what if the Queen Mother is upset?" The Prince of Jin nudged the Emperor with his elbow and lowered his voice, "Hey, look, she managed to get through it easily when our father passed away, but now she almost fainted when she heard that Zhu Haozi had died."

The emperor's anger was aroused.

He knew clearly that Prince Jin did it on purpose, but he still told the truth.

The emperor was almost willing to be provoked by him. And he added fuel to the fire, because he was angry that the queen mother gave the prince of Jin such an opportunity.

The feeling that everyone around me is being stupid.

"My Queen Mother has doted on Zhu Minghao for so many years without any principles, and she has indulged him in committing many evil things. Now that he is dead, he is dead. I have ordered people to bury him wherever he wants. My Queen Mother does not need to mention Zhu Minghao anymore!"

The Queen Mother shuddered and came to her senses.

She was in great pain and couldn't help but point at King Jin and yell, "Zhou Shiyue, did you kill Minghao? It must be you!"

The King of Jin asked sarcastically, "Why would the Queen Mother think so?"

"Isn't it because Minghao fell in love with Lu Zhaoling? You have been unable to swallow your anger since you were a child. Now Lu Zhaoling is your future princess, so you think Minghao has offended you and you can't tolerate him!"

The more the Queen Mother thought about it, the more she felt that this was the truth.

Who is Zhou Shiyue? How could she not know?

Violence must be repaid!

If Minghao offends him, he will take Minghao's life!

"When Minghao was yelling and disrespecting you in front of your carriage on the street, you must have held a grudge against him, right?"

"It turns out that the Queen Mother knew what happened back then."

Prince Jin snorted, then his face turned stern again.

"Since you knew that, the Queen Mother didn't even scold him? How come I am a member of the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and I am the uncle of the current emperor, not as good as the nephew of a relative by marriage?"

The Queen Mother paused.

She did know, but she certainly didn't scold Zhu Minghao.

“But you shouldn’t have killed Minghao for this!” she screamed.

"Mother!"

The emperor shouted sternly.

"The man you sent to rob the prison accidentally killed Zhu Minghao! He would not have died in prison, so you can say you killed him indirectly. Who do you want to blame now?"

The Queen Mother was so shocked that she staggered.

"No, no, it's impossible..."

"That's the truth! I'm not blind to it! Mother, the Qingfu Marquis's family is now extinct, and their fate is the result of your years of indulgence! The officials and the people are not blind. After the death of Qingfu Marquis, the victims who were harmed by them went to the government office every day to kneel and appeal for justice."

Chen Deshan wrote a memorial to him about this matter.

Yesterday he had thought of suppressing it and ignoring it, but Zhu Minghao died last night and the Queen Mother really pissed him off.

"Everyone knows that Zhu Minghao has committed many evil deeds, and you are behind him! If I don't give an explanation for this matter, it will be difficult to stop people from talking about it."

"Royal brother, come on, you are the best." Prince Jin secretly encouraged him from the side.

The emperor took a deep breath and said in a cold voice, "So, mother, you should go to Ciyu Temple to eat vegetarian food, chant Buddhist scriptures and copy scriptures for half a year. This is considered as an explanation to the people of the world!"

"emperor!"

The Queen Mother couldn't believe it.

What is the difference between what Your Majesty is doing and confining her and punishing her?

If this gets out, how will she, the empress dowager, keep her dignity?

"I have made up my mind. I will pack up and leave the capital today. It just so happens that my father has just passed away. Please pray for him, my mother."

"I won't go..."

"Little Tanzi!" The emperor did not give the empress dowager any chance to object. He directly called the eunuch over and ordered the palace servants to pack the empress dowager's luggage.

"Brother Emperor, I haven't seen you so decisive for many years." Prince Jin flattered the emperor at the right time.

The prince rushed over after hearing the news and just happened to hear what his uncle said. He suppressed the corners of his mouth that were about to rise.

The Queen Mother had sent many spies to keep an eye on the Eastern Palace, which was also a big trouble for him.

Now the emperor's uncle actually used the Zhu Minghao incident to send the empress dowager out of the capital.

The Queen Mother was packed up and sent out of the capital to Ciyu Temple.

When Lu Zhaoling heard the news, he immediately asked Lao Ma to harness the carriage and take Xiao Liu with him.

"Let's go, ride as fast as we can, leave the city, and wait for the Queen Mother by the official road."

She only brought Qingyin this time, and Qingbao was left at home to look after her.

Qing Yin didn’t know what Lu Zhaoling wanted to do, but after thinking about it, she said, “Miss, it’s not appropriate for the Queen Mother to be in danger of her life at this moment, otherwise it might implicate the Prince.”

If the Queen Mother died just after being sent out of the city, the Emperor would definitely blame himself, or he might push Prince Jin out for fear that the officials would impeach him for being unfilial and indirectly forcing the Queen Mother to death, saying that it was Prince Jin who had been instigating the incident.

Lu Zhaoling sat in the carriage, touching the rattan bracelet.

The carriage galloped.

She couldn't help laughing after hearing Qingyin's words, "Why would I want to kill her directly? I just want to make her suffer a little."

Because the Queen Mother indulged Zhu Minghao, which indirectly caused the deaths of many people, those innocent souls would never rest in peace unless she suffered a little.

She still had to celebrate Zhu Minghao's death, and the way to celebrate was -

The Queen Mother dreamed of her beloved nephew for half a month!

Look how considerate she is.
