The emperor sent Gao Jing and Nangong Ji away, and someone came to the empress dowager's bedroom here, saying that the empress dowager asked His Majesty to come over.

Originally, Emperor Jinghe wanted to go to the imperial study room and discuss something with the ministers. Seeing this, he immediately changed his mind and went to visit his mother first.

When I arrived at the Queen Mother's bedroom, it was much warmer inside than outside.

Obviously the firewall has been burned.

After all, the Queen Mother is older and weaker. Now that autumn and winter are coming, we should keep warm.

He handed the coat to Zhao Shou behind him, and the emperor respectfully bowed to the queen mother sitting on the soft couch and said, "Mother, my son is here!"

"The emperor is here, come and sit down!"

The Empress Dowager asked him to sit down opposite him, and poured him a cup of white tea from Hubei.

White tea is neither cold nor dry, has a light taste, and is suitable for the elderly to drink.

Jing Hedi himself did not drink so easily. He prefers to drink milk tea, especially iced milk tea in summer.

However, because there are war situations everywhere this summer, Emperor Jing He was busy with state affairs and drank very little.

"When will Mingqi and Mingjing come back?" asked the Queen Mother.

"If you return to your mother, they should have already arrived from Ningyuan to Dengzhou. If it goes well, they will be able to return to the capital in about twenty days."

"Where is Mingyou?"

"Because the hot air balloon needs to be operated by someone with great experience. Mingyou needs to stay in Ningyuan City to monitor whether the enemy will take revenge at all costs." The emperor said, "But Liao Shicong promised me that the situation has stabilized now, and Mingyou will definitely not be allowed to appear during the battle, including Fang Kaiyue's son Fang Lei."

"I heard that Mingjing was injured and almost died?"

"It's not that exaggerated. His face was just scratched. It's not serious. Please rest assured, Mother!"

"That's good!" The Empress Dowager was a little happy and a little moved, "Well, speaking of it, our Liu family is really good! Once the country is in danger, everyone is not afraid of danger. They risk their lives to contribute to the people of the world."

"Yes!"

Emperor Jing He also agreed with gratitude, which was also something he was very proud of.

It is also a place that makes all the children of the royal family proud.

From now on, no one will say that the royal family is just a group of waste who eats fresh food.

"But why did I hear that some people are talking sarcastic about you and want your Majesty to punish them severely, especially Ming Qi?" The Empress Dowager suddenly turned the limelight, "It is said that there are people who are very brave and dare to say that they want to kill Ming Qi? Is there anyone so crazy?"

Yes, more than one more.

The emperor also complained in his heart, but he could not say so: "They thought a little too much when they returned to their mother's words. After all, Emperor Taizu's order was there..."

Taizu of Dakang had strict orders that the children of the royal family were not allowed to be involved in court affairs, and all violators would be severely punished.

The Empress Dowager couldn't help but look at him: "Your Majesty, are you bothering me? Can we only say those polite and false words?"

Now the emperor immediately became anxious and smiled and said, "How can it be? Mother! This is what they said, I don't agree with it! You also know that I like Mingqi very much, he is the only son of Ah Brother!"

Dakang had a total of five princes and one emperor in this generation.

The only one who was born to the empress dowager with the emperor was the youngest King Yu, and Liu Mingqi was the only son of King Yu.

Such a relationship is different!

"It's good that you know." The Queen Mother nodded, "I only gave birth to you two for my mother. I hope you can support each other and love each other all your life. Don't be like the emperors of other dynasties, and do not make a life-and-death battle!"

"Definitely not!" The emperor shook his head quickly.

"Then tell me, how are you going to deal with this?" The Empress Dowager stared at his eyes: "Can you stand Wang Zhigeng's side?"

It may be a bit funny to say.

An empress dowager asked an emperor if he could withstand a third-rank censor.

Isn't this a joke?

But it is still normal in Dakang.

Officials like the Censor and the Censor Zhongcheng existed to correct the emperor's mistakes and to correct the situation.

Taizu once said that as long as what they said makes sense, the emperor cannot punish him.

Not to mention the people from the Censorate, they are all famous Qingliu in the world.

People never become officials for money and power, they just like to manage injustice and criticize injustice.

This is also the importance of the selection mechanism.

If the emperor attacks the censors, or wants them to surrender, these censors will be even more extreme.

More than 40 years ago, the emperor's grandfather insisted on doing something very unruly because he was forced to do something very unruly with the censor at that time.

The censor couldn't stop him, so he simply hit him and died in the Golden Palace.

That guy, that scene was so shocking!

Emperor Jing Hedi's grandfather was stunned at that time, and then he was scolded by scholars all over the world.

During that time, every day, people could come from all directions to scold him.

Within a few months, the emperor had to abdicate in disgrace and pass the throne to Emperor Jinghe's father.

Look!

It is precisely because of this bloody lesson that the Queen Mother was so angry and seemed so cautious.

She actually didn't completely believe the girl in the cold palace. After she came out, she found a lot of people to find out the situation.

There is no secret in the palace.

When the emperor talked to his ministers, there were palace maids and eunuchs serving them. Who cares about these people?

In name, he is the queen and the three major supervisors, but there is an ancestor on it!

They often don’t dare to talk nonsense, but the empress dowager asks, can she not say it?

So after the empress dowager asked several palace maids and eunuchs in succession, she finally knew something and then brought the emperor to him.

Regardless of whether the emperor has this idea or not, the mentality of those ministers is not right, so they must be prepared in advance.

Otherwise, as that girl said, what if they would do their grandson when they left?

Then even if I am in the underworld, I will not feel at ease!

...

Come back to your eyes.

The emperor also thought about this matter.

He replied: "Mother, they have their own persistence. The child does not intend to fight against them, but I also have a way to save Mingqi and the others."

As he said that, he repeated Nangong Ji's words just now.

The Empress Dowager was slightly confused when she heard this, but she had to admit that this insidious method was very effective.

The censor represents the public opinion of the world.

Once the public opinion is opposite to their meaning, can you say that the people in the world are wrong? That is, you are right?

This is completely without moral foundation!

In this way, Liu Mingqi will certainly be able to escape from the crime.

If I think so, the Empress Dowager felt a little more at ease and asked casually: "Who did you think of this unethical method?"

"Well……"

The emperor wanted to take the initiative, but when he heard the empress dowager say "a lack of morality", he immediately decided not to do so: "This is what Nangong Ji said."

"Well, this old guy is really a cunning person." The Queen Mother laughed, "Since he is so sensible, you must take care of him a little bit! Apart from restricting them from staying in the Gyeonggi area, just let go of anything else you can!"

"Save it!" said Jing Hedi.

"But one method may not be enough." The Empress Dowager said again, "The Ai family also has a method."

"Oh? I hope to hear it carefully!"

"It is said that filial piety is the first priority for all virtues. If it is my mother, I insist on protecting Mingqi, then all the responsibilities have nothing to do with you, right?"

"ah!?"

The emperor was so scared that he immediately knelt on the soft couch, "How can you say that, Mother Queen? No matter how unfilial the child is and has no ability, he cannot let Mother Queen take this responsibility!"

The empress dowager's meaning is very clear. If it is not possible to use public opinion to hold the censors and ministers hostage, then directly use the empress dowager's name to forcefully suppress them.

I just want to protect my grandson, I just don't make sense. What's wrong with you?

The unreasonable face of the empress dowager is different from the emperor.

When the emperor is unreasonable or even arrogant, then the ministers will die when they hit the wall, and everyone in the world will praise you for being kind and responsible!

But what about facing the Queen Mother?

You're going to commit suicide, too?

That would be too ridiculous!
