Chapter 107 The White-haired Man Sends the Black-haired Man
Pearl helped her up as quickly as possible: "Girl, slow down."
Bai Qinghuan leaned almost entirely on Zhenzhu's arms, and her knees ached so much.
This was the first time in two lifetimes that she had kneeled for such a long time, and her bones ached.
Zhenzhu once again channeled her internal energy into her knees to dispel the cold and relieve the pain.
Bai Qinghuan also felt her blood flow more smoothly and she was extremely grateful. She didn't know what she would do if Zhenzhu wasn't there.
He was supported as he limped along. The curtain was opened and a strong warmth hit him in the face. It was as warm as spring in the bedroom.
The underground dragon was burning brightly, and it was like heaven and hell compared to the outside.
The empress dowager, leaning on the beauty couch, was over sixty years old, but her hair was still black and there were no signs of aging on her face.
It shows how well it is maintained.
With her hair full of pearls and jade, she looks elegant and luxurious.
She only took a glance and knelt down again with her feet limping: "Your humble servant pays respect to the Queen Mother. May the Queen Mother be well and safe."
The Queen Mother was holding a book and flipping through it with a gentle expression. If it weren't for what happened just now, Bai Qinghuan would have thought she was an amiable old lady.
The words written on that book seem to be "Yiyun Ji", isn't that the book written by Yun Yizi?
She also has this book in her study.
The Queen Mother likes Yun Yizi’s book? Or just read one randomly?
She doesn't know.
The Queen Mother waited until he finished reading three pages, as if she only just noticed her. She just put the book down and didn't call out.
His eyes suddenly changed from gentle to sharp: "Are you Bai Qinghuan?"
Bai Qinghuan lowered her head and replied softly, "Your Majesty, I am your servant Bai Qinghuan."
The Queen Mother played with her carefully maintained nails:
"I heard that you fell in front of a black bear in the hunting grounds, and then framed Master Yun?"
This is the pace of convicting her.
Bai Qinghuan always felt something was odd. Why did the Queen Mother still call Yun Yizi the Grand Tutor?
Didn’t you know that His Majesty had already stripped him of his title?
"I am innocent, Queen Mother, please understand clearly that it was Lord Yun who dragged me down."
"At such a young age, you have learned how to bite. Master Yun is a bright and kind person, how could he hurt others?"
"It's your father's fault for not educating you. Your father is unworthy of being the prime minister."
This person is so biased that Bai Qinghuan wants to roll her eyes. Could it be that the Queen Mother and Yun Yizi are having an affair?
Why else would you do this?
With every word he calls him "Master Yun", I'm afraid the late emperor's coffin will no longer be able to hold him down.
But she agreed with the latter sentence.
Indeed, Bai Changhao is unworthy of being the prime minister.
It would be best if he could be implicated because of this matter.
The Queen Mother had already determined that she had framed him, and it was useless for her to defend herself.
She couldn't bear this.
"Your Highness, so many people saw it, and there are testimonies. I did not lie."
"you..."
The Queen Mother was furious. She sat up straight and glared at her sharply.
"Sharp-tongued!"
"Today, I will teach you how to be a good person on behalf of your parents. Come here!"
Bai Qinghuan's skin was tense. Was she afraid that she would die here today?
I never expected that this old woman has no martial ethics at all.
Just as the maid was about to step forward, she heard voices singing in unison from outside:
"His Majesty has arrived!"
Bai Qinghuan breathed a sigh of relief, his savior had arrived.
Before I knew it, my back was covered in cold sweat.
Everyone looked towards the door, and His Majesty stepped in, accompanied by a weak cough.
"Son meets mother! Cough cough cough..."
The emperor covered his mouth and coughed, one after another, without stopping.
"Your Majesty, long live His Majesty!"
Bai Qinghuan felt that the emperor's complexion was much worse than during the winter hunt.
Taking pills for a long time is not a good thing.
These ancient elixirs are made of mercury, cinnabar and the like.
The forehead has turned black, which is obviously a sign of poisoning.
Judging from his facial features alone, His Majesty looks older than the Empress Dowager.
When the Queen Mother saw the Emperor, she was furious:
"You are so great that you have time to come and see me?"
He didn't care at all about the emperor's cough.
The emperor didn't care and just sat in the chair opposite the empress dowager.
"I heard that the Queen Mother summoned Bai Qinghuan, and I just happened to have something to ask her."
The Queen Mother was as if she was facing a great enemy, and asked nervously, "Why did you see her?"
Then he looked at him suspiciously: "Are you going to take a concubine?"
"I don't agree. This woman has a heart as vicious as a snake and is not worthy of being my concubine."
"Isn't it enough to have Concubine Yun in the palace?"
"How could you be so obsessed with women?"
Then he looked at Bai Qinghuan's face even more fiercely, as if he wanted to scratch her with his nails.
Bitch, seducing his son!
Bai Qinghuan was stunned. The emperor could be his father, so why would he take a concubine?
Is the Queen Mother so confident in her son's health?
She lowered her head and quietly moved away from the Queen Mother. If the Queen Mother went crazy and ruined her face, she would have nowhere to complain.
The emperor pinched his forehead helplessly and said, "What are you thinking, mother? I am old now and don't have the heart to take concubines. Please don't scare the little girl."
She almost became his daughter-in-law, okay?
"Hmph... there is no best."
Just don't compete with Xiang'er for that person.
Then he thought of the emperor's purpose: "You are not coming here to take her away, are you?"
The emperor suddenly stood up and said, "I really have something to ask her."
"My son, I'm leaving!"
He walked a few steps toward the door, turned his head and looked at Bai Qinghuan: "Are you not leaving yet?"
Bai Qinghuan bowed to the Queen Mother and said, "I will take my leave."
He stood up quickly and followed the emperor.
When the Queen Mother saw Bai Qinghuan was about to leave, she was so angry that she swept everything on the small table to the ground, making a harsh sound.
"Emperor! If you take her away today, don't ever step into the gate of the Cining Palace again."
The threat is self-evident.
Bai Qinghuan was shocked. The relationship between this mother and son was really bad.
This is the rhythm of severing relations.
She stood there, looking at the Emperor and the Queen Mother, feeling extremely embarrassed.
It's not scary that they broke off their relationship. What's scary is that if they reconcile one day, she, the fuse, will become the target of their venting.
The emperor was furious, his face flushed red: "Ahem...
Desheng hurriedly calmed him down: "Your Majesty..."
When the coughing stopped, the emperor no longer spoke in a friendly tone: "My mother, are you determined to punish an innocent person?"
"When did I punish her?"
The Queen Mother denied it and the Emperor was too lazy to say anything. Wasn't it a punishment to make an injured person kneel on ice and snow for half an hour?
My mother is getting more and more unreasonable as she gets older.
Yun Yizi really deserves to die!
"Is this how the Queen Mother rules the country?"
"Do I need you, the Emperor, to teach me how to act?"
If a son does not criticize his parents' faults, the emperor is unfilial!
The emperor understood the meaning in her eyes without her saying anything. He stared at the queen mother coldly with a resolute look:
"I am taking this person away today. If you, Queen Mother, don't want the old to send the young away, then don't stop me."
"You...what did you say?"
The emperor dared to threaten her.
“Ahem…”
Blood was flowing from the corner of His Majesty's mouth, so he let the Queen Mother see it clearly.
"If the Queen Mother continues to fast for a few more days, it might really cost her son his life."
Seeing the blood, the Queen Mother also panicked: "Emperor, your body has always been..."
"Why? Has it always been fine? Even the best people can't stand going on hunger strike every now and then, so mother, please take care of yourself."
The Queen Mother stood there in a daze, just watching the Emperor and his men leave.
I think it was the phrase "the old send off the young" that hurt her nerves.
"Rong Chu, you said, the emperor is really not in good health?"
"Empress Dowager, the Emperor has been ill from time to time in recent years."
Madam Rong originally thought that the Queen Mother was going to start caring about the Emperor, and it would be good if the relationship between mother and son could be eased.
"It's time to appoint a crown prince."
This one sentence made Rong Mama feel cold all over.
