I just want to live a happy life

The Queen Mother was already nervous because she was worried that her daughter would marry far away in Mongolia. Now she was devastated by hearing such bad news. It was difficult for her to recover after falling ill. If it weren't for the highly skilled imperial physician, the Queen Mother might not have been able to get up.

Because Princess Hengti was marrying far away, preparations needed to be made in advance, so this eastern tour ended early. On the way back, the Queen Mother was unable to get off the boat.

This time is very different from the original plot. Bai Ruiji had a miscarriage because she accidentally fell, so she can't blame others.

Ruyi had not yet come out of the cold palace and had a bad relationship with Ling Yunche, so naturally she did not find a good job for Ling Yunche and be selected as a member of the guards for the eastern tour.

So this time Fu Cha Langya did not fall into the water, nor was she rescued by Ling Yunche.

Nothing happened on the way back and we returned to the capital safely.

After returning to the capital, the empress dowager had not yet recovered from her health, but she still needed to prepare a dowry for her daughter.

After sadly sending her daughter away to marry, the Queen Mother fell ill again due to sadness, and this time her recuperation time was extended again.

The harem calmed down after Princess Hengti got married, until the Queen Mother's health had almost recovered, and then there was a stir again.

Perhaps because her daughter was married far away, the empress dowager had a very bad temper. Not only did she criticize the empress in public many times, but she also did not let the concubines off the hook.

Moreover, Gao Xiyue also discovered that the Queen Mother's men were once again attacking her and Yongyu.

In fact, before she entered the palace, the Queen Mother had already attacked her and Yong Yu once, but she stopped them both times. The Queen Mother didn't go crazy for too long that time. Seeing that she couldn't achieve her goal and she was afraid of being discovered, she gradually gave up. But this time was different. Her offensive was fierce, and she seemed to be determined not to give up until she achieved her goal.

It seemed that she was taking her anger out on her again.

This Queen Mother is so ignorant of propriety, so she will teach her what propriety is.

On this day, the sky was clear and the weather was sunny. Gao Xiyue specially chose this day to go to the Cining Palace to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager.

After arriving at the Cining Palace, it was Fujia who came out. Fujia had a blank expression on his face. After bowing, he said bluntly, "Empress Hui, the Empress Dowager doesn't want to see you. You should go back. In addition, the Empress Dowager specifically ordered you to copy the Filial Piety Sutra ten times to show her affection."

Filial piety?

Why should she copy? If she had to copy, she should copy for her own father and mother. Who is this empress dowager?

Gao Xiyue ignored Fujia, but Moxin understood Gao Xiyue's expression very well. After pushing Fujia aside, she helped Gao Xiyue into the hall.

Fujia was knocked back and almost fell to the ground. Her face looked very ugly, but when she saw Gao Xiyue entering the hall, she hurried in as well.

After arriving at the palace, the first thing Gao Xiyue saw was the empress dowager sitting on the couch and petting a cat.

After seeing Gao Xiyue coming in, she scolded: "Empress Hui, you are so bold. I didn't let you in, how could you barge in without permission? Get out!"

Gao Xiyue didn't feel scared at all. She calmly sat down opposite the Queen Mother and said, "I think the Queen Mother must have something to tell me. It's better to do it today than today."

The Queen Mother was so angry that she laughed: "I have nothing to say to Concubine Hui."

Gao Xiyue: "Really? Since the Queen Mother has nothing to say, why did she attack me and Yongyu?"

The Queen Mother remained calm: "Oh? Concubine Hui must have remembered it wrongly. Why did I attack you and Yongyu?"

Concubine Hui knew that it was the Empress Dowager who did it, and the Empress Dowager also knew that Concubine Hui knew that she had done it to her, but she refused to admit it. What could Concubine Hui do to her?

Gao Xiyue smiled faintly: "It doesn't matter if the Queen Mother doesn't say anything. Anyway, I just need to know who attacked me. I am not someone who will be bullied. If someone bullies my mother and me, I will naturally retaliate."

"You said so, Queen Mother."

"I remember that the Queen Mother has two daughters who married far away, and a son in Shengjing."

Gao Xiyue accurately grasped the Queen Mother's weakness, and the Queen Mother was furious: "You..."

Seeing Concubine Hui talking about the Queen Mother, Fujia at the side could not help but say, "Concubine Hui, the Queen Mother is your elder, how can you be so rude."

Gao Xiyue looked at Fujia and said in a cold voice: "Moxin, take Fujia down and wake her up. Let her know what to say and what not to say. The master has the right to speak, so a servant has no right to speak."

Fujia's face turned red, but she would not leave without the Queen Mother's order. However, Mo Xin obeyed her master's orders, so even without the Queen Mother's order, Fujia had to go out with her.

So, Fujia was forcibly pulled out by Mo Xin.

At this time, the Queen Mother had calmed down. Her daughter's marriage far away had always been a concern and pain point for her.

She knew whose fault it was that Heng Chui married far away, but she couldn't blame anyone, so she could only pick on the weak. Gao Bin was far away in the court, so she had to take action against Gao Xiyue.

But it’s not easy to take action against Gao Xiyue, so we can only take it slowly.

But this time, her only daughter who remained in the capital was married off far away, and she recalled what happened in the past, and naturally took her anger out on Gao Xiyue.

She desperately wanted to teach Gao Xiyue a profound lesson, but she didn't expect Gao Xiyue to be so tough. Not only did she lose her manpower, but now Gao Xiyue even dared to fight her face to face.

She is the queen mother and the elder, yet she dares to threaten her.

Yes, she has weaknesses, and Gao Xiyue also has weaknesses.

The Queen Mother said, "Noble Concubine Hui is so ignorant of the rules. What good can Yongyu learn from being with you? If he stays with you forever, he will definitely be taught badly. I will definitely tell the Emperor to keep Yongyu away from you, his mother."

"I am a dull person, but fortunately Yongyu has always been smart and sensible, so I don't need to interfere too much. Even if Yongyu doesn't have any great abilities, as the biological son of me and the emperor, with our protection, Yongyu can live a rich and happy life, which is better than the two bastards of the Queen Mother who came from nowhere."

Gao Xiyue was very assertive and didn't give the empress dowager any face at all.

The Queen Mother was shocked, then frightened, terrified, and terrified, and then she finally calmed down and pretended to be calm.

Gao Xiyue kept looking at the Queen Mother's expression, which she found very interesting.

The Queen Mother pretended to be deaf and dumb: "What does Concubine Hui mean? I don't understand what Concubine Hui is saying."

Gao Xiyue smiled and said, "The Queen Mother is still pretending not to know at this time. I have to say that you have a really good attitude."

"Prince Hongzhou and Princess Hengti are said to be the heirs of the late emperor, but in fact they are the biological children of the late Prince Guoyi. If the late emperor knew about this, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to hold them down in his coffin."

"And the Queen Mother really had a good plan. The Emperor was afraid of the Queen Mother's Sixth Prince Hongzhou, so the Queen Mother adopted Hongzhou into the lineage of Prince Guoyi, thus cutting off the possibility of this prince succeeding to the throne and doing the Emperor a favor."
