Chapter 106 The Queen Mother Shows Her Strength
The Queen Mother's mind really shifted. She had never thought so much about it before.
Now that I think about it, how could there be so many coincidences?
"Someone must be trying to kill your father."
The Empress Dowager spoke with certainty, and Concubine Yun knew that her words had worked.
"I am just guessing, I have no evidence. My father has always been kind to others and never offended anyone. He just had a misunderstanding with Bai Qinghuan when he was injured."
"Of course I will. I will send someone to find evidence."
"But Bai Qinghuan is just a little girl, how can she do that? That's a ferocious black bear, it's scary just thinking about it."
The fear on her face was just right; there is no woman who is not afraid of wild beasts.
The Queen Mother snorted unhappily, "Just because she can't do it doesn't mean her father can't do it."
Concubine Yun couldn't believe it. She covered her mouth with a handkerchief and said after a long while, "No way? Bai Qingyou is Zhuo Xu's concubine. Prime Minister Bai shouldn't do this."
"Prime Minister Bai has no grudge against my father, why is this happening?"
"You don't understand the affairs of the previous dynasty. The waters are very deep."
Concubine Yun pretended not to understand: "What do you mean, mother?"
"Don't you need to worry about so much? Just leave it to me. Bai Qingyou is just a concubine. When you leave the palace, go to Zhuo Xu's house and give him some instructions. The Ministry of Rites is also arranging his marriage. I am worried, so go and keep an eye on it."
"Yes, mother, speaking of Zhuo Xu's marriage, the daughter of Mr. Chen from the Ministry of Personnel accidentally got together with Zhuo Xu. Zhuo Xu likes her, and I don't want to let her down. I want to give her the title of concubine. What do you think, mother?"
The Queen Mother hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, if Zhuo Xu likes it, we will just go with the flow. I will issue an imperial decree right away."
For lovers, she is willing to help them.
It doesn't seem like her...Alas!
"Thank you, mother."
After Concubine Yun left, the Queen Mother had a gloomy face and ordered Rong Madam in a strong voice: "Tell Bai Qinghuan to come to the palace. I want to see her."
Rong Mama hesitated: "Queen Dowager, I heard that Miss Bai was also injured and has difficulty walking."
The important thing is that His Majesty thinks Bai Qinghuan is right.
If the Queen Mother were to call him into the palace to reprimand him, wouldn't that make things even more strained between her and the Emperor?
"Could her injury be as serious as Yizhi's? If she can't walk, carry her in."
"...yes."
Madam Rong brought the empress dowager's oral order to the Bai Mansion, and Madam Zheng led her to the Hehuan Courtyard.
Bai Qinghuan was a little confused, but she quickly signaled Zi Yan to give the purse to the nanny: "It's freezing cold, nanny, you've worked hard all the way."
"Biyun, bring Madam a cup of hot tea and a hand warmer."
"Thank you for your help, young lady."
Miss Bai is so polite to a servant like her, which shows that she is a kind girl.
Aunt Zheng looked at the purse with envy. It was so thin, there must be banknotes inside.
Damn Lu Wanning, she said that the dowry was all spent, but she just hid it herself.
But because Madam Rong was there, she couldn't say anything.
Bai Qinghuan asked carefully: "Excuse me, Madam, why did the Queen Mother summon me?"
Rong Mama couldn't say anything clearly: "I don't know either. I hope the young lady can follow me into the palace as soon as possible."
After saying this, he felt a little reluctant and added, "Wear something thicker."
Bai Qinghuan's heart skipped a beat. It seemed that this was indeed not a good thing.
"Madam, wait a moment. Let me change my clothes."
She and the Queen Mother have absolutely no relationship at all?
Could it be that the Queen Mother knew about her relationship with Chi Ming?
She looked at Pearl in confusion, and Pearl also shook her head.
That's it.
Suddenly I remembered what Princess Changle said, that the Queen Mother liked all the women in the Yun family very much. Could it be that she came to vent her anger on Yun Yuyan?
It's obviously not her fault.
Judging from Madam Rong's expression, it was probably the case.
The Queen Mother, the most noble woman in Dongxi, wouldn't be so confused about right and wrong, right?
When she got to the inner room, she told Zhenzhu, "The Queen Mother summoned me when I was injured. It must not be a good thing. Send someone to find a way to inform the emperor."
Your Majesty is fair in this matter concerning Black Bear, and I hope he can help her out.
Then I wrapped two layers of cotton pads around my knees.
After putting on the warmest mink cloak, he limped out with the help of Biyun.
At this time, Lu Wanning also came over in a hurry.
"Qinghuan, mother will go to the palace with you."
Somehow, she felt very flustered and was worried about Qinghuan going alone.
Rong Mama stopped her, "Madam, the Queen Mother only summoned the young lady."
Bai Qinghuan also comforted her: "Mother, I will be back soon. Maybe the Queen Mother will give you a reward. You can just wait for me at home."
Lu Wanning was about to say something but stopped herself. Her daughter's foot was injured and she was being held by Zhenzhu. She just couldn't feel at ease.
I can only wait anxiously at home.
According to the rules, when a minister's daughter enters the palace, she can only bring one maid with her. At this time, Zhenzhu is obviously more suitable than Biyun and Ziyan.
Except after getting on the carriage, Pearl held her in her arms all the time.
He was carried all the way to the Cining Palace.
"Wait a moment, young lady. I will go and report to the Queen Mother."
After this time, Rong Mama never came out, and a little palace maid came out instead.
She looked arrogant and glanced at Bai Qinghuan with disdain: "The Queen Mother is taking a nap, girl, kneel down and wait for a while."
"...yes."
Bai Qinghuan almost uttered sweet words.
Just wait, wait on your knees!
This old woman is so bullying!
But could she not kneel?
cannot!
Now she could only endure the intimidation.
After all, she is the queen mother. Her life or death can be decided by just one word.
Evil feudal society!
What’s even more disgusting is that a thick layer of snow was deliberately sprinkled at the door of the Queen Mother’s bedroom. This was a gift specially prepared for her.
If she knelt without any preparation, her knees would be broken in less than half an hour.
The Queen Mother has really lost all her dignity in order to embarrass her!
At this moment, she completely lost her good impression of the Queen Mother.
I don’t know how a petty and narrow-minded person like her could give birth to a son like Chi Ming.
Could it be that Chi Ming is not her biological son?
People say that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is difficult, but they haven't even become mother-in-law and daughter-in-law yet, and it's already difficult.
What will happen in the future?
It’s a pity that she can’t fight back given her current status.
At this moment, she felt an infinite desire for power.
Before, I thought that if I couldn’t seduce Chi Ming, I would become a wealthy businessman, or go to another country.
Now, she can't.
She is determined to take the position of Princess Regent!
She wants to become the most noble woman in Dongxi and act arrogantly in Dongxi.
The old lady inside was so angry that her mouth was crooked!
As long as Chi Ming is on her side, the Queen Mother can't do anything to her.
Time passed quietly, and she had been kneeling for half an hour.
Even though Zhenzhu quietly channeled her internal energy into her to keep her warm, the two layers of cotton pads were still penetrated by the biting cold.
Her knees were also extremely cold.
My teeth are chattering; today's north wind seems to be particularly cold.
She knew that her body had reached its limit.
Should I pretend to be faint?
At this moment, the little palace maid came out again.
"The Queen Mother summoned you."
