The emperor knelt in Anhe Palace all night with a sad face.
Zhuang Zhao wanted to accompany him, but he wouldn't allow it.
"Expose yourself more deeply, and you have a body, so don't stay here any longer."
He said in a hoarse voice.
Even if there were frequent quarrels, the Empress Dowager's weight in the emperor's heart was not small.
"The emperor himself cherishes the dragon body.
My concubines and children are waiting for you in Qianqian Palace."
Her tone was soft but firm.
The emperor smiled, although reluctantly, but he listened after all.
Zhuang Zhao returned to the palace and ordered white tea.
"Tonight, send a message to everyone in the palace to put on plain clothes.
We will go to each palace tomorrow to tell you.
Put away all the gold jewelry and so on."
Bai Cha responded one by one, and then said: "The people from Jinyuan Palace came just now and said that Master Wu Jing wanted to go to the old lady to burn incense in front of her soul.
Since there were married women present during the day, I'm afraid it would be inconvenient, so I thought tonight Go there."
Dong Zhuang Zhao rubbed his temples for a moment.
"It should."
She said: "After all, I have a close relationship with her.
If she wants to go, just let her go."
Bai Cha hesitated, "But the emperor is still there."
Zhuang Zhao couldn't help but smile, her eyes sparkling, and she said: "I'm not worried, you're worried about anything.
It's okay for them to meet once.
Let's make everything clear."
The emperor was deposed suddenly, and it was not because of any big mistake by Dong.
It's hard to guarantee that there is still affection in my heart.
Let’s wait until we meet.
Zhuang Zhao asked Bai Cha to come over and whispered to her, "Let the pen and ink keep an eye on it for me."
Bai Cha nodded solemnly as if he was carrying some heavy responsibility.
"Mom, hold me!"
Ah Xun rushed out of the inner hall like a little firecracker, followed by a group of people chasing her.
He had changed into a dark blue silver silk round-neck robe, and had a sky-high braid on his head.
He looked extremely cute.
Zhuang Zhao picked him up and asked, "Why isn't Ah Xun sleeping yet?"
"Don't sleep, wait for your mother."
He enunciated the words more clearly and raised his head proudly, waiting for Zhuang Zhao to praise him.
As expected, Zhuang Zhao kissed his face and praised: "Ah Xun is so good." whee.
He put his small arms around Zhuang Zhao's neck, and felt sleepy as soon as his head rested on her shoulder.
He said in a daze: "They are kneeling and crying.
Ah Xun is afraid."
No wonder I'm still awake now.
Zhuang Zhao patted his back and spun him around to coax him to sleep.
She sighed inwardly, this child was too timid.
Naturally, the emperor also got the news that Master Wu Jing was coming to offer incense.
The emperor said: "Invite her in."
Master Wu Jing walked in slowly.

She was dressed calmly in green clothes and only held a wooden hairpin in her bun.
Her eyes were as calm as water, and her complexion looked even better than when she was the queen.
"Your Majesty, good luck."
She clasped her hands together and bent slightly.
The emperor looked at her with a complicated expression and saluted, raised his hand and said, "Get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
She looked calm, walked to the Empress Dowager, knelt down, kowtowed three times, then stood up, twisted three sticks of incense and lit it.
"My wish has been fulfilled.
I won't disturb the emperor anymore."
She blessed herself and prepared to retire.
"Wait a minute," the emperor stopped her and asked her with a sigh, "Mingzhu, do you blame me?"
Master Wu Jing stood there and paused for a while before saying, "What does the Emperor think?"
The emperor smiled bitterly, "Of course I am resentful."
"That's right."
Master Wu Jing's body began to shake slightly, and her original calmness and aloofness instantly receded.
She turned around and looked at the emperor, resentfully saying: "I love you wholeheartedly, manage your harem for you, and honor your elders.
Lazy.
But what about you?"
she said.
There was a hint of sneer on the side, "For the pretentious Mr.
Zhuang, you first ignored our many years of friendship as husband and wife, and then put the prince in her name.
Now you have the nerve to ask me if I hate you.
To tell the truth, I wish I could drink it raw."
Let's use your and Zhuang's blood to resolve our hatred."
The emperor was silent, looking at her resentful eyes, he couldn't help but feel ridiculous.
If she wasn't really incompetent when she was managing the harem, how could the Zhuang family have entered the harem?
If she had nothing to say to herself, how could she be in this situation today.
See, even now, they can't get along.
If the emperor still felt a little guilty before, now he has a clear conscience.
He said in a cold tone: "Tan Chen, please send Master Wujing back.
It is not suitable for monks to deal with secular affairs anymore.
Today is an exception.
Please concentrate on practicing in the future and don't worry about it anymore."
"Your Majesty, Feng Yi, for the sake of our love as husband and wife, I would like to give you one last piece of advice: Mr.
Zhuang is definitely not a kind person."
Her eyes were so evil.
Like a poison-quenched sword, it makes people shudder.
The emperor never thought that his Zhao Zhao was a kind person.
She had used many tricks in front of him.
But he didn't want to tell the truth.
Anyway, it's just some harmless little tricks.
He never thought there was anything wrong with a capable woman.
In fact, Dong herself lost because she had no means.
It’s just that there’s no point in talking about it any more.
The emperor waved his hand, "Tan Chen, send her back."

Pause for seven days and observe mourning for three months.
After this series of twists and turns, the foundation that the emperor finally managed to maintain was lost again, and he had to stay in bed for a few days.
"Sickness comes like a mountain, and goes away like a thread."
Zhuang Zhao gave him a spoonful of tonic soup and advised him softly, "It's better to stay in bed for a while."
After the emperor swallowed the soup, he smiled and said: "You will get moldy if you lie down all day.
You might as well go out and move around.
It doesn't take much effort to go to court."
What takes a lot of time is the batching.
There are so many of them, but not every one of them hits the mark.
There are many twists and turns, and it takes a lot of effort to figure out what to say.
He insisted on going, but Zhuang Zhao couldn't persuade him.
Put the cloak on him personally and watch him go out.
I don’t know why, but I always feel heavy in my heart, as if something is about to happen.
When the emperor returned to the court after a long absence, he was naturally baptized by the eyes of all the ministers.
Originally, they did not dare to look directly at Tianyan, but when it came to the emperor's safety, they could not care so much.
The emperor's face became thinner and a little pale, but he was still not exhausted, so everyone felt relieved.
"Report" "Eight Hundred Miles Urgent Military Report" A sound reached the hall from far to near, and everyone's expressions changed.
"Submit it quickly."
The emperor took the military report, read it at a glance, snorted coldly, and sneered: "Beiyi refuses to negotiate for peace, so they have already started a war."
Xie An said in disbelief: "But Murong Tian is still in our hands."
"The Beiyi coup resulted in the death of Empress Dowager Murong.
The Murong clan is no longer part of the Northern Yi royal family, and was replaced by the original Beiyi noble Tuoba clan."
The emperor crushed the military newspaper with his hand, and deep thought flashed in his eyes.
If Empress Dowager Murong is still there, there is still hope for peace talks.
After all, she was once Da Fu's princess.
But now "Move troops to the north, with Duke Xu Hao as the commander-in-chief, and Minister of War Qian Lin as the deputy general.
Go quickly.
I allow you to take full responsibility for this battle.
If necessary, you can kill first and then report later."
The emperor finished the order vigorously and resolutely, and then said: "If there is no progress within three months, I will personally lead the expedition."
"Your Majesty, no!"
As soon as the words came out, everyone shouted.
"My decision has been made, there is no need to say anything more.
Lord Zhenguo, just make preparations as soon as possible."
When he returned to Qianqian Palace, he sat in his seat and said nothing.
Zhuang Zhao felt strange, winked at Bi Mo, and walked out first.
"Empress."
The pen and ink came out after a while.
"What's the big deal?"
She also wore a moon-white trousers, which made her look more solemn than before.
The pen and ink was somewhat difficult to say: "The war in Beiyi has begun.
The emperor said that if there is no progress within three months, he will lead the expedition himself."
"What?"
Zhuang Zhao was half surprised and half angry.
The imperial commander personally conscripted him as a big-headed ghost.

With his body, it was clear that he was going to die.
The pen and ink said: "Your Majesty, please be patient and don't be impatient.
With all due respect, my Majesty, it would be better for Your Majesty not to interfere in this matter.
Military and political matters are unusual.
Your Majesty is a man who has his own ideas, so I am afraid he will not listen to His Majesty's advice. " Having said that, "But since you dared to take the risk to tell me, you must also want me to persuade you."
Her eyelashes were slightly raised, and her eyes were blazing.
The main idea behind the words was not surprising, he just said: "This slave is planning for the emperor, so I naturally hope that the empress can persuade the emperor.
However, it is very powerful, and I hope the empress can understand it."
He went back after saying that.
Bai Cha held Zhuang Zhao's arm and said worriedly: "Mother, what he said makes sense.
Even if you try to persuade the emperor, you may not change your mind, and you might even get into trouble.
Otherwise" "Let me think about it again."
Zhuang Zhao looked at the cluster of crabapples on the skirt and murmured, "Think about it again."
Both of them were a little absent-minded during the meal, and thanks to their absent-mindedness, they didn't notice anything strange about the other.
After rinsing their mouths after eating, they both took a cup of tea and drank it slowly.
Zhuang Zhao tentatively spoke, "Your Majesty seems to be looking bad today.
Is there something bothering you?"
The emperor was startled and looked at her deeply.
Zhuang Zhao looked at him with a natural expression, worry written all over his pretty face.
"It's nothing serious.
Maybe he's been ill recently, so he looks bad," he said calmly.
Zhuang Zhao snorted and said slowly: "That's good.
I guess I'm overthinking it.
It will be A Ling's birthday soon, and she will definitely have to be held by the emperor before she goes up."
Without it, this Princess Rongchang is really naughty.
Except for the emperor and Zhuang Zhao, she didn't even listen to Ah Xun's words.
As soon as Zhuang Zhao brought out A Ling's trump card, the emperor softened a little and coughed, as if he was thinking of how to word it.
After thinking for a while, he said: "I may not be present at A Ling's birthday party."
"Why is this" "It's just a possibility."
The emperor smiled at her, "Maybe something will distract me then, and that's normal."
It seemed like he wouldn't talk to her about it.
Zhuang Zhao sighed silently in his heart, and said with a smile on his face: "Then the whole world of Chunqiu Palace will be turned upside down by Aling."
The emperor raised the corners of his mouth in a dignified manner, his eyes wandering, and it seemed that his mind was not here.
She stopped disturbing him and left him to think alone, while she went back to the inner hall to accompany Ah Xun and Ah Ling
