Cining Palace.

Empress Dowager Su was copying Buddhist scriptures in the meditation room.

Upon hearing that the emperor was coming, a hint of surprise flashed across Empress Dowager Su's eyes.

"Madam Zhou, prepare a pot of Lushan Cloud Mist."

"Yes."

Di Jingyan strode into the meditation room with big steps and called out "Mother" in a faint expression.

"The Emperor, please get up quickly." Empress Dowager Su stepped forward quickly, smiling gently and lovingly, "Why is the Emperor here so late?"

"It's been a long time since I came to the Cining Palace to pay my respects." Di Jingyan lowered his eyelids and asked calmly, "I heard that mother has been locking herself in the meditation room for some time?"

"In a while, I plan to go to Huguo Temple to practice meditation for a month, so I copied some Buddhist scriptures in advance and brought them with me." Empress Dowager Su smiled and explained softly, "Your Majesty, don't worry. Everything is fine here. But you, Your Majesty, look a lot thinner."

"The tenth day of next month is the annual beauty pageant." Di Jingyan suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Empress Dowager Su, his eyes were heavy, "Are you not going to help me with my selection, mother?"

Having said that, is there anything that Empress Dowager Su doesn't understand?

The emperor came so late, he just wanted to test her!

"What does the emperor want to say? Why don't you just say it?"

Empress Dowager Su sighed deeply, unable to hide the loneliness and sadness in her tone.

Di Jingyan frowned slightly, lowered his head and rubbed the ring on his finger, his tone was even more ambiguous, "Today, someone in the court mentioned that the harem is empty, and my son has no children."

"What do you think I should do, mother?"

"I am old and useless." Empress Dowager Su sighed softly, "Your Majesty, I just said that I plan to go to Huguo Temple for meditation next month. It would be better to let Concubine De preside over the selection."

"De Fei is steady, and with Xi Fei's assistance, I believe they will definitely select the right concubine for Your Majesty."

"What the Queen Mother said is absolutely true."

"By the way, I have already sent an imperial decree to the Su family yesterday." Queen Mother Su suddenly said, "Daughters of the Su family will not participate in this year's selection."

A hint of surprise flashed across Di Jingyan's eyes.

"As far as I know, the Su family has two cousins ​​who are just the right age..."

"I have already issued an edict to grant them marriage." Empress Dowager Su smiled slightly and said softly, "Your Majesty, I know that Concubine Shu's affairs have had a great impact on you."

Empress Dowager Su looked into his eyes and said earnestly, "Emperor, whether you believe it or not, in my heart, my first identity is your mother."

"I feel so guilty for treating you so badly."

"Your Majesty, your words are too kind." Di Jingyan raised his eyebrows slightly and said in a low voice.

Queen Mother Su just smiled and said nothing.

Soon, Madam Zhou brought up the brewed Lushan Cloud Mist.

Di Jingyan picked up the cup of tea and took a sip.

"Mother, this tea is excellent today."

"As long as the emperor likes it." Empress Dowager Su said with a faint smile.

Di Jingyan, in a happy mood, finished the cup of tea and left the Cining Palace.

Half an hour later.

Looking at the brand new set of glazed and white jade tea set on the table, Empress Dowager Su couldn't help but shook her head.

"Your Majesty specially sent this set of tea set, why does the Empress do not look happy?" Nanny Zhou asked while massaging Empress Dowager Su's shoulders.

"I just feel a little emotional." Empress Dowager Su sighed softly, "We have been mother and son for many years, but the emperor still refuses to open his heart to me."

"There is a long way to go. Your Majesty will gradually understand the good intentions of your Majesty." Nanny Zhou whispered comfortingly.

"I hope so!" Empress Dowager Su gently closed her eyes, "But the emperor has always been a steady person. Given his character, he won't come to me and beat around the bush."

"Could it be that the Su family did something behind my back again?" Empress Dowager Su pinched her brows in annoyance. "The emperor has been wary of the Su family for a long time. Why don't my brothers learn their lesson?"

Nanny Zhou didn't dare to respond.

"Please invite my sister-in-law to the palace tomorrow morning." Empress Dowager Su said in a deep voice, "Some things need to be said."

……

[You mean, the group of archers brought by the IQless are the Su family's secret guards???]

[Su family, why do you want to kill me? ]

[Not only that, the Shen family, the Zhang family, the Wang family, and the Wei family also wanted to take action! ]

[Of course, the Yan family, whose entire clan was executed, is also ready to take action! ]

[It was just that at the Duke of Xiangguo's Mansion, the host took the initiative and killed the Yan family's original plan.]

【I have a question.】

[Host, please speak? ]

[Am I so hated? Why do so many people want to kill me? ]

Lingling No.5: (⊙o⊙)…

[Ah~ As expected, if you are too outstanding, you will be envied~]

drop--

[The new melon-eating mission has been released. Please click to view and complete the mission within the specified time. ]

[Host, please expose within three days the fact that the head of the Su family, that is, the Grand Tutor Su Jiashan, is incapable of upholding family ethics. The designated people to eat the melons are: Empress Dowager Su, Emperor Jingyan, and Su Zhangshi.]

[…Xiao Wuzi, do you think this mission is suitable? ]

Luo Xueqing couldn't help but complain!

[Then Master Su is the elder brother of Empress Dowager Su! ]

[Empress Dowager Su can barely be considered my bestie, right? I refuse this mission! ]

[The mastermind behind instructing the archers to shoot the host is none other than Master Su...]

【etc! 】

Luo Xueqing shouted quickly!

[I have a clear distinction between what I like and what I hate. The Queen Mother is the Queen Mother, and the Grand Tutor is the Grand Tutor! Besides, who did I offend? ]

[Besides, Master Su wants me to die! ]

[Is it reasonable for me to fight back a little? ]

[Very reasonable! ]

Luo Xueqing couldn't agree more with Xiao Wuzi's answer.

[What are the rewards for completing the task? ]

[The number of draws will be doubled! The prizes on the lucky draw wheel will also be updated! ]

【Okay~】

After finishing breakfast, Luo Xueqing decided to go to the Cining Palace to pay her respects.

At this moment, Empress Dowager Su was meeting Su Zhang in the Cining Palace.

"I heard that Yi Ge'er's daughter is pregnant again?" Empress Dowager Su smiled and asked softly.

Hearing this, Su Zhang's eyes flashed with dissatisfaction, "That's right, it was just diagnosed half a month ago! Looking at her pregnancy, I'm afraid it's another girl."

"Even though you gave birth to two daughters, you still won't let Brother Yi take a concubine!"

Whenever Su Zhang mentioned her eldest daughter-in-law who had given birth to two granddaughters, she felt unhappy!

"The arrival of a child is fate. No matter whether it is a boy or a girl, they are all the blood of the Su family." Empress Dowager Su frowned slightly and said in a deep voice.

"Your Highness, the Queen Mother is right!" Su Zhang quickly stood up and apologized, "It was I who lost my temper."

"Don't be nervous, sister-in-law," Queen Mother Su sighed softly, "Brother Yi and his wife are still young, they can always have another son."

"Then I'll take advantage of the Empress Dowager's good words." Su Zhang's expression eased a little. "Speaking of which, it's also very strange. Brother Yi has two sisters in succession, but Brother Hong's family has three boys in succession."

"My queen, after all, Brother Yi's lineage is the legitimate heir of our Su family!"

"Brother Yi's family is still reluctant to accept a concubine. I am really worried!"

[Tsk tsk, is there a throne to inherit in the family? Must give birth to a son???]
