Dodder Pampering Handbook

Come whatever you are afraid of.The Empress Dowager lived in the Zhuangzi on Qingyuan Mountain for five days. One day, she thought about it, recalled the past days on Jiuhua Mountain, and cried bitterly.

Then she fell into a serious illness vigorously, and she was about to die. She asked the emperor to let her return to the fief to serve her parents.

Although it was a request, Zhao covered her lips and coughed lightly, with contempt and disdain in the corners of her eyes and brows.

Zhong Teng stood behind her, followed her back lightly, and winked at Zhao Chan.Zhao Chanzhen's hands hidden in his sleeves loosened and clenched again, his palms ached from the pinched nails.

He concealed all his thoughts on his face, he said some beautiful words, and finally let him go.Choose a day to let the empress dowager go back to the fiefdom of King Yong'an, and what she said was only to visit relatives.

It doesn't mean to live forever.However, as long as the empress dowager returned to the fief, she would never return under the pretext of being ill, and there was nothing she could do.

Zhao Chan was really polite and courteous, and he said to the Empress Dowager: "I am able to be what I am today, thanks to the careful teaching of Grandma Huang. Now that Grandma Huang is going back to her hometown to visit relatives, I am also very reluctant. If not, I will let you go." I will personally send you to Mount Jiuhua."

Zhao's face froze for a moment, and for a moment, she thought that the little emperor knew everything.But Zhong Cheng's hand behind her was still steady, and he couldn't detect any emotional changes.

Then he laughed and said: "Your Majesty has a heart, but the government affairs are busy, so it is inconvenient to disturb."

Zhao Chanzhen was determined, "If the affairs of government cannot leave me for a day, then what's the use of these ministers?"

What he said was extremely domineering, Zhao was silent for a while, and then said: "Then I will thank you, Your Majesty."

After exiting the Palace of Compassion and Ning, Zhong Teng slowed him two steps, walked behind him, and looked at Zhao Chanzhen with probing eyes.

However, Zhao Chanzhen pulled him forcefully and walked to his side. He raised his head and showed a sly smile to Zhong Teng: "In this way, I can go to Jiuhua Mountain with my uncle to escape the summer heat."

There is indeed a royal palace near Mount Jiuhua, but it is a pity that it has not been lived in for a long time and needs to be cleaned in advance.

After another half a month, the palace was almost refurbished, and it was already mid-August.

It was a hot time, Zhao Chanzhen drove to the palace to escape the summer heat, and with him were the sick Empress Dowager, King Yong'an, and some close officials.

Even Deng Yong won this honor and accompanied the emperor to escape the summer heat.

Along the way, thousands of people escorted the emperor's sedan chair, and it took a day to arrive at the palace near Mount Jiuhua.

The palace has taken on a new look, and when it is resettled, it has already moved to the west building.

Zhao's fake show was real, and he called Zhong Cheng several times along the way, using the excuse that he was unwell.

In fact, the closer she got to Mount Jiuhua, the more uneasy she felt. She held Zhong Cheng's hand and said, "Teng'er, why don't you go back with your mother?"

She looked at Zhong Teng earnestly and said: "In recent days, mother has also understood. You really don't want to be the emperor. In this case, we will return to the fief together. Mother owes you so much, and I can make up for you one by one in the future. When you have a child, Mother will take care of the child for you in person, so that you can enjoy the family happiness in the world. With you by the little emperor's side, Mother always feels uneasy in her heart, as if..."

Mrs. Zhao frowned, and didn't finish what she said next. She always panicked and fell straight down, as if she was about to lose something important.In order to persuade Zhong Cheng, she even begged as an ordinary mother.

As if someone was playing with his heart, Zhong Cheng felt a little pain in his heart.But he was born in heaven and earth, and he never knew what the love of his parents was, and he thought it was an instinctive reaction of his body.

He took half a step back and broke free from the clenched hand: "Mother, you should go back first."

"Why don't you go back with me?" Zhao was heartbroken.

"We owe too much to the little emperor, and I want to make up for it one by one." Zhong Cheng turned his thoughts, thinking of the original ending of the little emperor, dense pain rose in his heart.

If he leaves now and the mission fails, what will happen to the little emperor?

The Empress Dowager did not expect him to be so stubborn, she lowered her voice and scolded angrily: "What do we owe him? Without me, would he still be alive? Can he be emperor? He is a lowly person who can sit among ten thousand people Even if it's only for one day, it's still smoke from his ancestral grave!"

"Don't think that I don't know what you did secretly. If you don't believe me, you even sent someone to Jiuhua Mountain to investigate for yourself, and even ordered someone to take away his mother's bones. You even found Qing Zhu and checked her appearance. Is it similar to Zhao Chanzhen? You don't trust your mother, but defend an outsider instead?"

Zhong Teng was keenly aware, "Someone found Qingzhu?"

The empress dowager snorted coldly: "Don't try to pretend to be confused for me. There are people from me on Mount Jiuhua. I know what you did best. If you really want to avoid future troubles, you should have killed her long ago. yes."

"No, mother." Zhong Teng sternly frowned, his appearance resembled the empress dowager, and he said: "The son did not send anyone to check on Qingzhu. He just wanted to collect Bai Mudan's bones and rebury them. "

He believed that the Empress Dowager would not lie to him.

Mrs. Zhao and him looked at each other, and an idea came to mind in unison, it's bad, someone may have realized that the little emperor was not born by the first emperor.

When she left Mount Jiuhua, Mrs. Zhao was careful. She left her most trusted maid in the temple to be her eyeliner.

If not, someone should have doubted the authenticity of Zhao Chanzhen's bloodline long ago when Zhao Chanzhen ascended the throne.Afterwards, she also asked someone to hide Qingzhu, so that when the little emperor grew up, someone would suspect that the two looked different.

The reason why he didn't kill Qingzhu to silence his mouth is also because one day, he will use this as an important handle to check and balance the little emperor.

But now...if someone really exposes the false identity of the little emperor, how will the situation develop?

Mrs. Zhao was the first to stabilize her mind, she said: "You don't have to worry, last time I heard that someone caught her, not wanting her life, just looking at her appearance. I thought it was you, so I was worried that someone else would be there. Someone has already dealt with her gone."

"Mother!" Zhong Cheng's heart was shocked, he didn't know about this, "Qing Zhu died?"

"If she doesn't die, it will be our mother and son who will die. You have given the military power to the little emperor on your own initiative, but have you thought about giving us some leeway? If the matter is revealed, do you really think that the world will let us go? Exchange Royal blood is a capital offense."

"You don't think about mother, mother doesn't blame you." Mrs. Zhao said to him earnestly, "but mother always thinks about you, thinking about leaving you a way out?"

Zhong Cheng looked at her and seemed to have a thousand words to say, but at this moment he couldn't say a word.

Mrs. Zhao is telling the truth. Royal struggles are full of blood and dirty tricks.Either you die, or I die.No one dares to take it lightly. Without such a heart and means, Mrs. Zhao would not be able to live now.

His lips moved slightly, he raised his hand, but put it down again, "That's all."

Zhong Teng is not a kind person who values ​​life, what he thinks of is the little emperor.

What if the little emperor knew that Qingzhu was killed by the empress dowager?Even if it wasn't his biological mother, the little emperor didn't know it!

Thinking about Qing Zhu's appearance being spied on by someone, probably secretly staring at the little emperor now, it's even more troublesome.

He even wanted to explain to Zhao Chanzhen, but when he thought of his crying appearance, he stopped in his tracks: "Forget it, let's see it tomorrow."

As soon as he left, Jingchun Garden became quiet again.The Empress Dowager sat there with a calm and self-possessed look. She lightly stopped to take a sip of tea, her eyes were raised coldly, and she snorted and said, "Is the medicine ready?"

Su Yue said: "Your Majesty, don't worry about her? She has always been honest and obedient, and the little emperor doesn't have the slightest suspicion of her. This time, she will definitely succeed."

"It's not in vain that Aijia taught her carefully. This cheap bastard, Aijia was almost deceived by him. He really thought he wanted to be a good emperor. In the end, he is still a bastard who can only shake his butt."

With a "snap", half of Zhao's sharp nails broke due to too much force. She seemed to feel no pain, and slowly pulled the half of the nails off, "This is the only one left in Ai's family." I have a son, but I was missed by that bastard. I don’t know what kind of ecstasy drug he gave, Cheng’er was so fascinated by him that he didn’t even listen to Aijia’s words.”

"Su Yue, tell me, did King Yong'an listen to Ben Gong's words very much before?" The anger in her eyes almost turned into reality, and under the light of the candle, it was very creepy.Su Yue nodded quickly, "The prince must have been deceived by him."

The charming appearance of the little emperor was not only liked by the maids in the palace, she had even looked at Deng Qiu a few times from afar, and the lewdness in his eyes did not look like a fake.

Her family's prince has always been upright, even if his personality is weird, he would never act so absurdly.Thinking about it, it could only be Zhao Chan who was really tempted.

He is like a mountain ghost, exuding a fatal attraction in this gloomy palace.

If someone flatters her, Zhao's heart will be much more comfortable.She really wanted to return to the fief at first, but when she found out that Zhao Chanzhen seduced King Yong'an, she could only endure it.

She would like to see if she, a foolish son, would be willing to be cheated after seeing the little emperor hang out with court ladies.

I'm afraid that when the time comes, they will go crazy and spread fire, so that they can take the throne before those soldiers have completely changed their minds.

Mrs. Zhao looked in the direction of Mount Jiuhua from a distance. She would not let her son be seduced and killed by a bastard who didn't even know who his real father was.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhao Chanzhen got up, had breakfast with the Empress Dowager, King Yong'an, and took advantage of the clear sky to walk towards Mount Jiuhua.

The scenery along the way is good, and Zhao Chanzhen is also in a good mood.Zhong Teng rode a horse and stood outside the sedan chair. When he heard him call him, he lifted the curtain of the sedan chair. Zhao Chanzhen sat there, dangling his calf. He didn't say anything about calling him, but only showed him a bright smile.

Such a childish smile meant that he was in a good mood.

But Zhong Cheng's mood sank to the bottom of the valley. At the foot of Jiuhua Mountain, the nearby villages had been blocked and it was forbidden to go up the mountain.

The team also paused to recuperate, Zhao Chanzhen asked Zhong Teng to stick his head in, wiped the fine sweat from his temples with a handkerchief, and kissed him on the cheek again, "Uncle Huang has worked hard."

Zhong Cheng reached out and rubbed his hair, hiding his thoughts and smiling.

Immediately after getting out of the sedan chair, he sat upright on the horseback, looked around, and was facing the sedan chair behind with a pair of probing eyes.
