After the Empress Dowager sent Chu Shaoling away, the emperor left alone. The emperor advised the Empress Dowager to rest earlier. The Empress Dowager said coldly: "No need! The Ai family is very energetic today. If you don't understand this, the Ai family can't sleep. They will pass on the palace management of the Ai family. There are also people related to the two eunuchs who died today. The Ai family wants to see who is so bold to dare to murder the legitimate prince under the nose!"

The old empress dowager did not show her power for a long time, and the emperor was unable to do so, so she had to say, "It's better for the mother to personally examine her, but she'll just accompany her son."

"Very very." The empress dowager was cold, "Otherwise, it would be so good for Ai's family to frame Ruan'er."

The emperor couldn't get down his face, so he could only smile bitterly: "My son is afraid that his mother will be tired."

The empress dowager was too lazy to listen to the emperor's explanation, so she took the relevant palace servants to interrogate them several times, and before she could wait for Sanxing Wumu, she pried open the mouths of these palace servants.

It turned out that Li Qiao was the eunuch in the palace of Concubine Shu. He was punished to go to the Labor Service for being convicted of Concubine Yu. Concubine Shu and Concubine Li had been incompatible for a long time. After Concubine Li found out, she used silver to redeem Li Qiao. She wanted to keep Li Qiao by her side and work hard for her, but Concubine Shu was watching her closely at that time. Concubine Li simply sent Li Qiao to the palace, one to avoid the news, and the other to when it could be used in the palace. By chance, she didn't expect that she would be of great use today.

The palace man died together was Li Qiao's apprentice Li Lin. He went to search the two rooms and found a lot of jewelry and silver. The evidence was confirmed. The empress dowager looked at the emperor and patted the table and laughed: "Haha, it's hard for Concubine Li to spend so much effort. It's really good to bury the stake many years ago!"

The emperor was angry with Concubine Li and had to smile: "Don't get angry, my mother, I'll hurt my body carefully."

The Empress Dowager asked again who was involved in Li Qiao's affairs and who helped him. She pulled out a series of palace maids to imprison him, and said, "After the slaves have finished the trial, it's time to examine the master, and bring Chu Shaoruan to the Ai family."

The emperor knew that the Queen Mother would not stop if she was fired today, so he had to follow him and said, "What are you doing while standing there?! Why don't you take the evil kid?"

The Empress Dowager at least gave Chu Shaoruan a face and held everyone out of his personal trial with the emperor.

Chu Shaoruan was limp and was lifted. The empress dowager threw the testimony of the palace servants just now to Chu Shaoruan for him to see. Chu Shaoruan saw that the empress dowager had even found out about the matter of Shu Concubine back then. He had already understood that he had been plotted by Chu Shaoling again. Chu Shaoruan originally thought that he would just tell him about his plan and shook the matter of Chu Shaoling and the guards to death, but now Li Qiao and Li Lin are dead, and he has no guilt. If he pulls Chu Shaoling again, it will only make the empress dowager angry...

Chu Shaoruan thought about it for a few years, and she was extremely angry and had to swallow it, but she kowtowed: "The grandson deserves to die, it was the grandson who mistakenly listened to those people's instigation. The grandson deserves to die, the grandson deserves to die..."

The accomplice killed the murderer and pleaded guilty. The empress dowager did not listen to Chu Shaoruan's nonsense and directly sent him back.

It was already midnight. The Queen Mother took a sip of tea and said for a while: "What should the emperor do today?"

The emperor was in a state of confusion. Chu Shaoruan and Concubine Li were hurting his face today. The emperor was angry and wanted to punish him severely, but when he thought about his friendship with Concubine Li over the years and his expectations for Chu Shaoruan, the emperor was hesitant again.

Nowadays, the matter of neutral crown princes has been frequently mentioned, and the two princes are Chu Shaoling and Chu Shaoruan. If Chu Shaoruan is attacked at this time, then the crown prince will be Chu Shaoling. When the emperor thinks of this, he feels like he has swallowed a fly.

The empress dowager looked at the emperor coldly, and knew his son and mother. She knew what the emperor was thinking and said slowly: "Is the emperor trying to cover up Chu Shaoruan and Concubine Li?"

"What's the mother's words?" the emperor said quickly, "My son just didn't think about how to send him down."

The Empress Dowager was very upset this night, and she was too lazy to play with the emperor as a lie, so she said directly: "The Emperor's heart is that Ai's family understands that being a parent can't help but have biased things. Ai's family is also biased. Ai's family has so many children. To be honest, it's yours that hurts..."

The emperor lowered his eyes and said, "The mother is kind, and the son understands."

"The Ai family is not talking about this." A trace of mockery flashed through the queen mother's eyes and said coldly, "The Ai family loves you because among the many children, you are the only one from the Ai family. The late emperor had more than a dozen princes, but you were not the eldest son but were the legitimate prince, so you were appointed as the crown prince. When many old ministers supported you as emperor, they did not have those disputes, and they fought for the four words "justified". The emperor has been on the throne for a long time now, and has he forgotten what happened that day?"

This sentence made the emperor unable to sit still, and quickly stood up and said, "Son doesn't dare. The old princes were eyeing him that day. How did the mother protect his son? The son will never dare to forget."

The emperor and the empress dowager have not been very close to each other over the years, but when the emperor was still the prince, the mother and son had depended on each other for life, and they also feared to support them to overcome difficulties together. When talking about the incident, the mother and son felt soft. The empress dowager was silent for a while and sighed: "It is hard for the emperor to remember that the Ai family has forgotten that they are the emperor."

The emperor felt uncomfortable when he saw the queen mother's head full of silver hair, and lowered his head and said, "I dare not forget for a moment."

The empress dowager raised her hand and helped him sit beside her, and slowly said, "Why did King Jie and King Li dare not take your father and you seriously? Isn't Emperor Renzong too fond of these concubines? Even though they are lawless, your father wants to take your position after leaving! The situation on that day is right in front of you, and the Ai family thinks that the emperor should know what he wants to put in the open, so they don't want to put these things on the surface. Now, the Ai family should understand, the emperor wants to make Ruan'er the crown prince?"

The emperor paused and said slowly: "Son... I have never made a decision in my heart. Ling'er is the best in terms of life experience. Ruan'er is naturally good at essays. Moer is strong in martial arts. Several adult princes have their own advantages, so it is really hard to settle down."

"This is against your will." The Empress Dowager looked straight at the emperor's eyes, "The Ai family has never heard of the prince's martial arts and literary talent being taken into the school. The Ai family spread everything today, but the emperor still wants to deal with the Ai family?!"

The emperor paused and said, "Compared with the skills of controlling people and being more thoughtful than being deeply thoughtful, Ling'er is the first among the princes. Ruan'er is not as good as him. But no matter what Ruan'er, I can see him clearly at a glance. Ling'er... I have never seen through him without hiding his mother. I am not relieved to give this position to him."

The empress dowager closed her eyes and said lightly: "Ling'er is not close to you. Why is this the emperor better than the Ai family? Forget it. The Ai family will call Ling'er to you tomorrow. If you don't worry, ask whatever you want. Father and son are by nature. If the Ai family doesn't believe in anything that cannot be seen through. Even if they still cannot see through, they say that after opening, you don't have to guard against him like a thief."

The emperor said embarrassedly, "My mother is so serious."

The Empress Dowager shook her head: "The Ai family has already tried this case in front of you. How to deal with the emperor, please discuss with Chu Shaoling, the miserable, tomorrow. The Ai family is tired, go."

The emperor served the Empress Dowager and returned to his bedroom with all his thoughts.

The next day, the empress dowager called Chu Shaoling early, and after half a day, she asked Chu Shaoling to pay tribute to the emperor.

Chu Shaoling came prepared and the emperor had already arranged the matter. There was no palace servant in the main hall. Chu Shaoling sneered in his heart. Now that the father and son say a few words, the empress dowager will arrange it first. Is there such a mobilization of troops?

The emperor thought about it all night and came up and said first: "I and the Empress Dowager have already reviewed the matter last night. It was indeed Ruan'er's work."

Chu Shaoling's face was faint: "The father is wise."

The emperor was like punching into the cotton. The emperor looked at Chu Shaoling silently for a while, almost just to see Chu Shaoling's expression change, and deliberately said: "Ruan'er was convicted of this matter. You are one step closer to the throne. You should be happy, right?"

Chu Shaoling lowered his eyes: "My son doesn't have it."

This is not against his will. The reserve position is himself. What is he happy or not?

When the emperor saw Chu Shaoling's face, he continued, "No matter what, among the princes, you should be the throne, but you are aloof and vicious and biased... If you ascend to the throne one day, you are afraid that the first thing you do will be to rely on your noble status to defeat these brothers one by one. I always think about what happens next."

Chu Shaoling sneered in his heart and said in a deep voice: "The father also took the throne as the legitimate son, but now there are more than ten uncles, and it can be seen that if the emperor is in the position of the emperor, he will not necessarily have to kill all his brothers."

The emperor sneered: "I don't have any good methods to treat my brothers. I was still a prince who was very clean at that time, and I was not as good as you... I have already stained all my blood at such a young age."

Chu Shaoling lowered his eyes and replied in a low voice: "This is natural. The father is better than his sons. How kind to the late emperor is to his father? How can the empress dowager protect his father? Naturally, the father does not have to be involved in those dirty things by himself."

"Bastard!" The emperor was furious when he heard this, "Are you accusing me of not treating you well enough?!"

Chu Shaoling was still indifferent: "I dare not, what the father and son minister treat their sons and mothers, both the father and son ministers know very well."

The emperor was hurt by Chu Shaoling's chest, but after hearing this, he didn't know how to answer it.

The Emperor's affairs were a heart-wrenching problem.

The emperor successfully ascended the throne and made great efforts. The emperor also promised to the throne that he would respect the queen for the rest of his life. He was just a bird, a good bow, a cunning rabbit died, and a lackey was cooked. After a few years after he ascended the throne, the emperor began to favor Concubine Li, and the position of the queen was useless. Empress Ling knew all the embarrassment that day. The emperor himself knew all the embarrassment that day.

Just because the emperor himself knew that he was ashamed of Empress Ling, he didn't like it. Chu Shaoyang was fine, but Chu Shaoling reminded the emperor almost always of this conscience debt. Chu Shaoling looked very similar to Empress Ling, and every move, every frown and smile was taught by Empress Ling himself. As long as he saw Emperor Chu Shaoling, he would think of Empress Ling, and he himself was always avoiding the guilt of Empress Ling.

The emperor sighed dejectedly and said, "You have always hated that I am not good enough to treat your mother?"

Chu Shaoling bowed his head: "My son dare not."

That's it. Speaking and acting never makes people catch any mistakes. The emperor even felt that he was not as calm and solemn as Chu Shaoling stood below. The emperor became more and more distracted and waved his hand and said, "Forget it, go down, I will naturally give you justice this time."

Chu Shaoling bowed: "Father, the emperor is wise."

Chu Shaoling turned around and left the hall. He knew that the emperor would give justice, but not to him, but to the power behind him. He was bullied by Chu Shaoruan for no reason. Even if he didn't pursue the matter, someone would pursue him.

Before leaving the main hall, Chu Shaoling turned his head and looked inside, and a hint of mockery and pity flashed in his eyes. Will he feel uneasy? His mother is the mother of a country, but she lived a humiliation in the years before her death. Sooner or later, the debt will be paid.

The emperor in the hall leaned on the golden dragon chaise and rubbed his eyebrows. The entire hall was empty and depressed. Chu Shaoling stepped out of the hall, and the bright sunshine outside was shining on his body. Under the nine-level dragon stone steps, the guard halberd was looking at him with a little anxiousness. The guard halberd's clear eyes shone into Chu Shaoling's suppressed manic heart like this bright sunlight, and instantly swept away the darkness in his heart for thousands of miles.

The author has something to say: Thank you Cang Ying, aellia, Zi Youxue, Thunder and the landmines late at night, Momoda~

By the way! The last chapter was so fat, I thought I would see a string of praises like "Menman is so diligent," "Menman is so thick and long", "Menman is the general attacker~". It would be fine if there is no such thing as outside. I am not such a vanity and shallow person, but! There is actually a topic that condemns the second-hand spring | medicine is not powerful! t-t... Can you still play well together? Can you still be the left half of each other's wings? Can you?!

t-t…
