Holding a jade pendant, he can understand the past and present, and teach the ancients how to fight

Shufei was extremely respectful in her attitude. Apart from what she said that displeased the empress dowager, the empress dowager could not find any fault with her in other aspects, so she could not punish her.

The Queen Mother was so angry that she couldn't vent it and her face looked very grim.

At this time, the emperor stood up and said, "I still have government affairs to attend to, so please do as you please, Empress Dowager."

After walking a few steps, he paused and glanced at Concubine Shu, "Concubine Shu, Concubine Xian is still weak. Go to Changle Palace and help her take care of Yin'er."

Knowing that the emperor had helped her out, Concubine Shu was delighted and bowed quickly: "I obey your order!"

The Concubine Shu left with the Emperor. The Empress Dowager could no longer vent her anger on the Concubine Shu, so she took her anger out on Empress Sun, accusing her of not managing the harem well.

In the end, regardless of Empress Sun's wishes, he said that he would choose someone to assist Empress Sun in managing the harem on the grounds that Empress Sun was weak in character and could not manage the harem well.

When everyone heard this, they knew that the Queen Mother wanted Concubine Shen and the Queen to share the power of managing the harem.

From now on, there will be good shows to watch in this harem!

On that day, the empress dowager issued two decrees. One was to restore Shen Yurou's position as imperial concubine and let Shen Yurou assist the empress in managing the harem.

The other was to demote Xu Xiyue from Concubine Xian to Concubine Chun on the grounds that she did not have enough qualifications.

Someone around the empress dowager went to Changle Palace in person to deliver the oral order. As soon as they left, Concubine Shu was furious and cursed, calling the empress dowager an old woman and accusing her of meddling in other people's business.

Shufei is probably the first person who dares to scold the empress dowager. She is really a warrior.

Lin Yuejiao tutted her words, while Xu Xiyue said in surprise, "Sister, be careful, there are ears on the other side of the wall. If this gets to the Queen Mother's ears, Sister will definitely be punished. It's not worth it to anger the Queen Mother for Xiyue."

Tinghe was guarding outside, and besides Luoluo, there was only Lin Yuejiao, the invisible person, in the palace, so no one would hear what Concubine Shu said.

However, seeing Xu Xiyue was nervous, Concubine Shu suppressed her anger, sat beside the bed, and held Xu Xiyue's hand to comfort him.

"Don't be nervous. I won't tell you anything. Don't take it to heart. You have Yin'er, and your status will rise sooner or later."

Xu Xiyue nodded, and Tinghe's voice came from outside, saying that the wet nurse was coming with the baby.

The child fell asleep, and the wet nurse gently placed the child next to Xu Xiyue. Looking at the soft little Yin'er, Concubine Shu's unhappiness disappeared.

For fear of disturbing the child's sleep, Concubine Shu left, and the wet nurse also left, leaving only Luluo.

Lin Yuejiao finally had a chance to speak, "Xiyue, the Queen Mother returned to the palace this time to support Shen Yurou. Now that Shen Yurou has resumed her position as a noble concubine, she will definitely retaliate against you with her viciousness. You must be more careful. Especially Yin'er, don't let anyone contact him except your own people."

Xu Xiyue's gentle eyebrows suddenly changed, and the sharp eyes scared Luoluo's heart.

"Miss?"

Luoluo was confused. Why did the empress change her expression for no reason?

"Whoever dares to touch Yin'er, I will make her die without a burial place!" Xu Xiyue's eyes were full of cruelty when he said this.

The child is her weak spot. She will fight to the death with anyone who dares to touch her Yin'er.

Luoluo was stunned for a moment, then she realized that it was probably the fairy who came and said something to the empress, which made the empress angry.

Lin Yuejiao was just reminding Xu Xiyue that once the Queen Mother came back, she would bypass the Emperor and restore Shen Yurou's position as Imperial Concubine, and Shen Yurou would definitely wait for an opportunity to take revenge.

When the emperor heard what the empress dowager had done, he was furious but unable to stop it.

Filial piety is the most important virtue. Common people would be reviled and criticized for being unfilial, let alone him who is the ruler of a country. If he falls out with the queen mother, the court officials will be exposed.

However, the Queen Mother's move also made him more determined to eliminate the Shen family's power.

…………

Ci'an Palace!

After the Queen and others had left, Shen Yurou finally came and started crying when she saw the Queen Mother.

"Aunt, Yurou has finally waited for you to come back. If you don't come back, I'm afraid I won't be able to see Yurou again!"

Kneeling in front of the Queen Mother, Shen Yurou wiped her tears with her head resting on her legs, crying with grievance and sadness.

The Queen Mother frowned and scolded, but her tone was full of concern, "Don't talk nonsense, with me here, who dares to touch you?"

Shen Yurou raised her head, her face full of tears.

"Aunt, the Emperor demoted Yurou because of that vixen Concubine Xian. That vixen is very sinister and vicious, and wants Yurou's life."

"She dares?" The Queen Mother was furious. "She is just the daughter of a county magistrate. How dare she touch anyone from my Shen family? I will kill all her clan members."

Seeing the Queen Mother getting angry, Shanhu took the opportunity to say, "Queen Mother, you don't know that the Queen was demoted because of Concubine Xian's scheme!"

With a bang, the Queen Mother slammed the table and spoke harshly.

"What a good Concubine Chun! I will never let her go. Yurou, don't worry. Now that I am back, I will take care of you. I issued an edict today to demote her. She is still Concubine Chun, not Concubine Xian. As for you, you are still the head of all concubines."

When Shen Yurou heard this, she knew that she had been restored to the position of Imperial Concubine. She happily hugged the Queen Mother's legs and said nice things to her, which made the Queen Mother feel comfortable.

To be able to reach the position of empress dowager, her scheming and tactics must be beyond the reach of ordinary people.

The Queen Mother was very patient. She did not touch Xu Xiyue during her confinement period until she was out of the confinement period.

A bloodless killing method forced Xu Xiyue to collapse.

"Empress Dowager, Yin'er is only one month old. He is still a child who knows nothing. How can he leave his mother? Please take back your order."

Ci'an Palace!

Xu Xiyue knelt on the ground, crying and kowtowing. After a while, the skin on his forehead was broken and bleeding.

Perhaps mother and son are connected by heart, and feeling his mother's sadness, little Yin'er also started crying, and the whole Ci'an Palace was filled with crying sounds.

"Please ask the Queen Mother to take back your order!"

Luoluo also kowtowed anxiously. Early in the morning, the empress dowager summoned the queen and said that she wanted to see the little prince.

Unexpectedly, when the empress brought the little prince to Ci'an Palace, the empress dowager didn't even look at him and ordered someone to take the little prince away.

He said that he was old, liked children, and wanted to raise the little prince for the queen for a while.

That being said, in reality they wanted to snatch the little prince away. How could he, who was so young, leave his biological mother?

Unexpectedly, the Queen Mother's first move was a stab in the Empress' heart.

"Princess Chun, you are crying so hard that people who don't know would think I am trying to take your child away!"

The Queen Mother has a kind face, but she is actually a hypocrite.

"I said that I just want Yin'er to accompany me for a while. Why can't I love my grandson?"

It would be fine if the Queen Mother really loved Yin'er, but it was clear that she had bad intentions. She didn't even look at Yin'er. How could that be called love?

Listening to the child's crying, Xu Xiyue felt a pain in his heart and kowtowed heavily, saying:

"Queen Dowager, I am Yin'er's mother. Only when I stay with you can Yin'er feel safe. I beg you to return Yin'er to me."

"How dare you! Do you mean that I will abuse Yin'er? I helped you raise the child, but you are ungrateful and dare to slander me for stealing the child. Someone, take Concubine Chun to the dark room to reflect on her mistakes. Release her when you realize your mistakes."

"My child, my child..."

"My lady..."

Xu Xiyue was immediately dragged away by two big maids. Luoluo cried and begged for mercy for the empress, but the empress dowager was furious and she was dragged out and beaten with a stick.

At this time, Lin Yuejiao was asking Xu Zhiyu about the store's business performance in recent months.

The system's anxious voice suddenly sounded, "Host, Xu Xiyue is in trouble!"
