Chapter 344 Mother and Son Conversation Chapter 1
Lin Junxue looked at Xie Yu, tears sparkling in her eyes
"Your Majesty, I really don't care, you just..."
Xie Yu said, "I will not allow you to wrong yourself anymore. Don't mention this matter again."
Second day
Xie Yu went to court refreshed.
Today, when Lin Junxue and the other concubines went to Ci'an Palace to pay respects,
I saw the expected person standing beside the Queen Mother.
王楚
Obviously, all the concubines could feel that the Queen Mother was very happy today.
Lin Junxue took a sip of tea slowly and curled her lips.
Of course the Queen Mother was happy. Such a young man could serve as a substitute for her first love and she could have him by her side every day.
A long-cherished wish finally came true, not to mention that the Queen Mother is now fifty years old.
Even if you are eighty years old, you can get out of bed and be beaming with joy.
The concubines were also surprised to see Wang Chu standing next to the Queen Mother.
After all, who doesn’t know Wang Chu, the newly appointed chief steward of the Jingshifang?
It is extremely rare for a eunuch to have such an outstanding appearance in the harem.
How come this person suddenly came to serve the Queen Mother? But no one dared to say anything.
Lin Junxue smiled and said, "Mother, why is this eunuch Wang here to serve you?"
Everyone pricked up their ears
The Queen Mother said, "Yesterday, Eunuch Wang came to pay his respects to me. I found him to be a likable person. He just happened to have returned to the palace and was short of someone useful, so I kept him by my side. As for the position of the Chief of the Jingshifang, I will just choose someone else."
Lin Junxue nodded slightly
"It is naturally good that Eunuch Wang can be favored by Eunuch Gao. It is also his blessing that the Queen Mother likes him."
Wang Chu stood respectfully aside
The Queen Mother looked at Lin Junxue with satisfaction, thinking that she was sensible.
But she was still angry when she thought about the fact that the emperor did not come to have lunch with her yesterday.
If it weren’t for Lin Junxue, why would the emperor quarrel with her?
Today, after all the concubines paid their respects, the Queen Mother left Zheng Jin alone.
Zheng Jin knelt down, and the Queen Mother looked at her
Yesterday, Lin Junxue's words made the Queen Mother suspicious.
She suspected that Zheng Jin was pretending to join her, but was actually Lin Junxue's man, which was why the last plan failed.
Zheng Jin was nervous, as she had no idea what the Queen Mother was thinking.
Of course, she didn't know that Lin Junxue's words determined her fate.
for a while
The Queen Mother said, "Get up. Yesterday, I deliberately treated you coldly in front of everyone. This way, when I support you in the future, I won't cause any suspicion. Do you understand my painstaking efforts?"
Zheng Jin was terrified and delighted. She didn't expect that the Queen Mother was deliberately treating her coldly for this reason.
She only heard that the Queen Mother wanted to promote her, and she was so happy that she forgot everything.
She didn't notice at all the murderous intent in the eyes of the Empress Dowager and Nanny Wu as they looked at her.
Nanny Wu said, "Last time, Jin Ronghua, you did not do your job well. From now on, you must serve the Queen Mother well. The Queen Mother will not treat you unfairly. You will enjoy wealth and glory, fine clothes and delicious food. As long as the Queen Mother is here, Jin Ronghua can rest assured."
Zheng Jin excitedly expressed his loyalty
"Your Highness, I will listen to you and do whatever you ask me to do. From now on, I am yours."
Seeing how gullible Zheng Jin was, the Queen Mother looked down upon her even more.
What can I do to such a fool?
The Queen Mother said, "Well, since I have chosen you, I naturally believe in your loyalty. You should work hard for me. I will not treat you unfairly, and I will speak for you in front of the emperor. You can leave now."
"I'm leaving now."
After Zheng Jin stepped down
Nanny Wu said, "If the Queen Mother had not just returned to the palace and had no one available, why would she have used Jin Ronghua? She is so stupid, she is really not worth using."
The Queen Mother snorted coldly
"He is just a person from a small family. I don't think highly of him. Okay, I will use him for now."
The Queen Mother turned her head and looked at Wang Chu, her eyes softened instantly.
"Wang Chu, from now on, you will stay by my side and serve me."
Wang Chu leaned over
"I am the Queen Mother's servant in life and her ghost in death. I have no second thoughts."
Wang Chu was sweet-talking and immediately made the empress dowager smile.
Aunt Wu frowned beside her.
Although Wang Chu's background has been thoroughly investigated and he was not instructed by someone,
But she always felt uneasy about having this man next to the empress dowager. Perhaps she was worrying too much.
Zhonghe Palace
Lin Junxue was reading a book when Danzhen came in carrying lychees.
"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Internal Affairs just sent over lychees. They were rushed to the palace over a distance of 800 miles. There weren't many to begin with. The Emperor only gave some to Ci'an Palace, Zhonghe Palace, and Concubine Lan. Among the three palaces, Zhonghe Palace has the most."
Lin Junxue put down her hand and glanced at the lychees on the plate.
"Well, send some to Huipin as well, she likes it."
Dan Zhen said, "I understand. I will send it to Concubine Hui later."
Qiao Xin said, "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother left Jin Ronghua alone in front of all the concubines. It was really ostentatious. It seems that the Queen Mother has no intention of really supporting Jin Ronghua."
Lin Junxue lowered her head to read the book, slowly turning the pages, and spoke softly.
"Zheng Jin, in the eyes of the Queen Mother, she has been regarded as an abandoned child from the beginning. Now, she is completely abandoned. Otherwise, the Queen Mother would not have kept Zheng Jin in front of all the concubines. Zheng Jin thought she was prosperous, but in fact, it was just a fire boiling oil."
Qiao Xin asked, "Your Majesty, do you mean that the Queen Mother has completely abandoned Jin Ronghua?"
Lin Junxue raised her eyebrows
"Not yet. Even if the Queen Mother wants to abandon Jin Ronghua, she has to be used up before being thrown away. This is in line with the ruthless personality of our Queen Mother."
Noon
Xie Yu arrived at Ci'an Palace
"Your son pays respects to your mother."
The Queen Mother looked at Xie Yu who was sitting down. This was the child she had raised with her own hands, but after he ascended the throne, he became increasingly difficult to control.
Ever since the incident with Huan'er three years ago, I have become quite estranged from her.
If she had not been addicted to sex with the late emperor after giving birth to Huan'er, her body would have been damaged and she would not be able to have children.
Otherwise, why would she want a child born by her personal maid to ascend the throne?
Nanny Wu had already prepared Xie Yu's favorite tea.
Unfortunately, she didn't know that Xie Yu had changed his taste in the past two years.
Xie Yu took a sip of tea and put it down.
The Queen Mother asked, "Yu'er, it's been more than three years, are you still blaming your mother?"
Xie Yu looked at the Queen Mother and said in a deep voice, "Mother, I don't want to be estranged from you because of what happened three years ago. Now that it's over, you should return to the palace and take good care of yourself. The Queen will be in charge of the affairs of the harem, so you don't have to worry about it."
The Queen Mother covered her chest
"Your Majesty, what are you talking about? I have been in Yushan for more than three years, and I miss you every day. Now that you have returned to the palace, you treat your mother like this. Do you know how sad I will be?"
Xie Yu looked at the excited Queen Mother. The mother-son relationship of so many years was still there.
He said, "Mother, I have no other intentions."
Nanny Wu said, "Empress Dowager, please don't be angry. The Emperor has no other intentions. The Emperor and you are mother and son, the closest people in the world. There is no such thing as an unreconcilable relationship between a mother and son. The Emperor also cares about you."
