The emperor smiled bitterly and said, "This really won't work."
Jiang Yi snorted coldly, and the emperor came closer again, coaxing her softly, and Jiang Yi actually fell asleep under her coaxing.
The emperor was a little amused and helpless.
The emperor spent the rest of the day with Jiang Yi.
In the evening, the Queen Mother invited the Emperor and Jiang Yi to have dinner with her.
The empress dowager also knew that the emperor was going to lead the army in person. She could not influence the emperor's opinion, but she also wanted to see the emperor before that and have a heart-to-heart talk with her son.
Jiang Yi naturally had no objection to this. While the empress dowager was crying in front of the emperor, Jiang Yi secretly put nightmare water into the wine.
Watching the Queen Mother drink the wine, Jiang Yi lowered his eyes.
More often than not, it was the empress dowager who spoke to the emperor, and the emperor remained silent.
The empress dowager felt extremely guilty towards the emperor, but the emperor did not have such deep feelings towards the empress dowager.
He left home when he was young and was seventeen years old when he returned to the capital.
At that time, the Queen Mother hugged him and cried, but he didn't feel anything in his heart.
Time is a terrible thing that can turn a mother and her child, who are related by blood, into strangers.
His obedience to the Queen Mother was often not instinctive, but out of a feeling that it was the right thing to do.
Later, when he learned what the Queen Mother had done to Jiang Yi, he lost even that bit of respect.
The emperor remained remarkably calm. Finally, he said he was feeling a bit sleepy, then turned to the empress dowager, "It's getting late. Mother, go to bed early. I'll be fine."
The empress dowager was stunned by the emperor's calm appearance. She reached out to touch the emperor's face, but the emperor dodged her.
The Queen Mother was a little embarrassed. She said, "Okay, I will wait for you to come back."
"I know I stopped you from being with Jiang Yi before, and it made you feel disgusted, but I was really doing it for your own good."
"No matter how you blame me, I will take good care of Jiang Yi and the emperor's grandson while you are away. Your Majesty, please leave with peace of mind."
She thought the emperor's attitude was simply because she didn't want him and Jiang Yi to be together.
But the emperor didn't say anything, he just replied "OK".
The emperor took Jiang Yi away. Looking at the emperor's back, the queen mother burst into tears.
She looked at her son's back greedily, as if this glance was a farewell forever.
For Empress Dowager Yu, perhaps life is a process of constant farewell.
Sixteen years ago, she sent Xie Ning away from Southern Chen and headed for the hell of Northern Li.
Now she is sending her son away again, and this time the danger is no less than sixteen years ago.
The Queen Mother began to eat vegetarian food and chant Buddhist scriptures, praying for Xie Ning's safe return, but eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddhist scriptures could not bring her peace of mind.
She had nightmares all night long. Sometimes she would dream that Xie Ning was covered in blood and questioned her why she was so incompetent, so incompetent that he became a proton.
Sometimes she would dream of the little grandson in Jiang Yi's belly.
She dreamed that the young grandson looked at her with disgust and said, "You killed my mother. I don't want to recognize you as my grandmother."
The Queen Mother was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat.
