Chapter 640: No Intention of Difficulty
Chu Ying'er shrank slightly, then looked at the Queen Mother in a flattering manner, as if she was a villain who had seen through the situation and was trying hard to cling to the Queen Mother's thigh.
"You are quite sensible." The Queen Mother was a little drunk, and Chu Ying'er's fawning appearance at the moment greatly satisfied her desire for control, so she was in the mood to say a few more words.
"Ying'er is young and ignorant, and is willing to listen to the teachings of the Empress Dowager." Chu Ying'er took another step towards the Queen Mother and smiled slightly.
What she meant was that she wanted to rely on the Queen Mother and was willing to obey her orders from now on.
The Queen Mother narrowed her eyes and smiled with satisfaction: "Good boy."
After a pause, he continued, "But I don't need your help. I can go back by myself."
Now is the critical moment to accomplish great things. Even if Chu Ying'er sees the situation clearly and wants to come to join her, the Queen Mother will never let her get close to her easily. She is very wary.
Chu Ying'er's face froze slightly, and then she lowered her eyes respectfully: "Yes, then the Royal Grandmother should go back and rest as soon as possible."
"Yes." The Queen Mother nodded calmly, then turned to Wang Fu and said, "It's getting late, arrange for all the ladies to stay in the palace."
"Yes, madam."
After saying this, the Queen Mother stood up and walked away, supported by her personal nanny.
The evening breeze blew by, suddenly waking up everyone who was in a daze.
In an instant, the entire Imperial Garden exploded, but because Nanny Song was still there, no one dared to complain too much, but the resentment revealed in the discussions was about to fill the entire sky.
"She asked us to live in the palace. Is the Queen Mother going to imprison us?"
"What's going on? Why can't you let us leave the palace?"
"Should we break out?"
"Are you crazy? Didn't you see that the Imperial Guards have been dispatched? The Queen Mother won't care about our lives."
"They have trapped us in the palace. It's clear that they intend to use us as hostages. I'm afraid things are going to change."
"Wow, mother, I'm scared..."
“…”
"Everyone, the Queen Mother has no intention of making things difficult for you. You only need to stay in the palace for a few days before she lets you leave. But if anyone dares to disobey the Queen Mother's order, I'm sorry. This day next year will probably be her death anniversary. You'd better not waste your energy crying and making a fuss, please!"
Nanny Song looked at everyone coldly.
Panic filled everyone's hearts, but facing the expressionless palace maids like Nanny Song, and the Imperial Guards guarding outside the Imperial Garden, everyone was helpless.
Who wants to die when you can live?
Everyone had gloomy faces and followed the palace maid angrily.
The concubines also left one after another.
When Concubine Zhen heard that Lu Xiang was in trouble, she came to the Imperial Garden and saw her leaving with Zuo Shiwen. When she was about to speak, she received a stopping look from Lu Xiang.
She was puzzled, but subconsciously did not beg for mercy.
Now, as I was walking back to the Yanxi Palace, I felt my hands and feet were cold.
Su Wei whispered in her ear: "My lady, the Jingyun Gate between the harem and the front court is heavily guarded, and I can't get out."
Concubine Zhen looked at Su Wei with a pale face and said, "The Queen Mother suddenly dared to do this. I'm afraid the Emperor is also in danger."
"I waited in Jingren Palace for a whole afternoon, but the Queen did not come back. Shaohua and Sangye were accompanying the Queen, but they are nowhere to be seen either. Zisu is very worried, and everyone is in a state of panic. Now the Queen Mother controls the harem, and our people cannot go out, and outsiders cannot come in." Su Wei said with a frown, her voice trembling slightly as it drifted in the wind.
