In the imperial study room, Wang Deyi told Zhao Bai about Zhao Shun's visit to Wang Bieyuan.

After Zhao Bai heard this, he sneered and said, "Brother Wang, are you protesting against me?"

"Your Majesty, has the regent regretted it? Regretted supporting you as emperor?" Wang Deyi asked.

"Regardless of whether he regrets it or not, the Ninth Five-Year Lord is now me. Even if he is dissatisfied with me, he dare not be that traitor."

After Zhao Bai finished speaking, he picked up the tea cup, and seeing that the tea inside was empty, he put the cup down again.

Wang Deyi took the empty cup, handed it to the little maid beside him, and said, "Take a cup of hot tea."

"Yes."

After the little maid left, Wang Deyi walked to the imperial table and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the servant has already found out that the prescription given by the Empress Dowager to Concubine Shu is a fertility medicine. It is said to be very effective. After using it, you will be able to conceive On the dragon fetus."

Zhao Bai picked up a memorial and opened it, saying: "Yes, I understand."

"The Empress Dowager wants to use the dragon fetus to make Concubine Shu completely gain your trust." Wang Deyi said.

"She wants to use the dragon fetus in Concubine Shu's belly to save the life of the entire Duke's mansion and Concubine Shu. If she really has this child, Concubine Shu can do whatever she wants." Zhao Bai said.

At this time, the little palace lady returned to the room with the teacup and handed it to Wang Deyi.

Wang Deyi took the tea, and said to the little maid: "Go get some more snacks, Your Majesty is also hungry at this time."

"Yes."

Wang Deyi put the teacup on the imperial table, and said: "But to help the Queen Mother, how can I be your help? Isn't it a desperate move?"

"If the regent looks like he is losing power, they will think that I will be the same as the regent." Zhao Shun said.

"The slave feels that Yuan Guogong would not do this." Wang Deyi said.

"Yuan Guogong is a smart person, but Concubine Shu is not. She is married to the Queen Mother now. They must also think that if Concubine Shu has a dragon fetus, I will love her more and be more magnanimous, even if she or Yuan Guogong's family committed some crimes." , I will forgive you too." Zhao Bai said.

"Then...Your Majesty must absolutely not let the Empress Dowager succeed." Wang Deyi said.

"If I don't accept the gift from the Empress Dowager, wouldn't I be too unkind?" Zhao Bai laughed.

Wang Deyi was puzzled, but he knew that His Majesty naturally had His Majesty's reasons for what he did.

"Tell me what I said, tonight I will go to Concubine Shu's palace." Zhao Bai said.

"Yes, this servant will send someone to inform Concubine Shu." Wang Deyi said.
-
"Empress, Your Majesty has passed on the order to go to Concubine Shu's palace to rest tonight."

In the Changle Palace, the little maid told Jiang Chuo the news.

"Well, I know, you should step back first." Jiang Chuo said.

"Yes."

After the little maid left, Xiangying sighed.

Jiang Chuo walked to the dressing table, picked up the comb on the table, and began to comb his long hair.

"Empress, Your Majesty has been pampering Concubine Shu recently, and even the Empress Dowager scolded you for these things, why does this slave think that you are not in a hurry?" Xiangying said.

"What is there to worry about? No matter what, I am still the queen of the world, and no one can shake my position." Jiang Chuo said.

Xiangying helped her take off the hairpin, and while arranging the accessories in the dowry box, she said: "The regent came to see His Majesty today, and after waiting for four full hours, His Majesty did not receive him. Your Majesty even asked the prince to send someone to give it to you." The regent sent supplements and asked the regent to recuperate in the mansion. I heard that after the regent left the palace, he went to the other courtyard of His Royal Highness Su Wang. Empress, what if the regent joins hands with the queen mother and Su Wang?"

Jiang Chuo stood up, went back to the warm couch and sat down, took a spoonful of the bird's nest sent by the maid, and said: "Don't worry so much, I am a member of the harem, so I shouldn't interfere in the affairs of the previous court." You just have to do your part.”

"Yes……"

Xiangying looked at Jiang Chuo distressedly, she always felt that although the empress pretended not to care on the surface, she must be very sad in her heart.

"Xiangying, Your Majesty has His Majesty's decision, so does Cousin Shun. It's already very embarrassing for me to be caught between them and the Empress Dowager, so I would rather ignore and ignore everything," Jiang Chuo said.

Xiangying nodded, "I understand, no matter what you want to do, Madam, Xiangying will support you."

Jiang Chuo smiled, "Thanks for having you by Bengong's side."

"Your Majesty, this is what slaves should do."

In Zening Palace, the Empress Dowager had already learned about Zhao Shun's visit to the King's Courtyard, and sent several guards out of the palace to find out what they said.

"Empress Dowager, don't worry, His Highness the Sixth Highness is the first emperor's son and the regent's cousin, and the regent will not do anything wrong." Mother Meng said.

"Of course this Ai family knows, and he doesn't have the guts to measure him, Zhao Shun." The Empress Dowager said.

Mother Meng brought a bowl of white fungus soup, and said: "The regent waited for His Majesty for four hours in the cold wind, and went to see our Sixth Highness after he was not received. He probably regretted his mistake."

The empress dowager sneered, "Yes, but even so, Aijia will not let him go."

Mother Meng hurriedly persuaded: "Why is the queen mother doing this? Although the regent is a bit domineering, he is also a genius with both civil and military skills. If he can be used by us, wouldn't it be more convenient?"

The empress dowager played with the beads in her hand, and said: "You, you only think about the immediate interests. Although Zhao Shun is good, he has betrayed the Ai family once, and once he was unfaithful, he will not be used for life. Moreover, now the Ai family has Zhao Shun." With Yi's help, their brothers have always been incompatible with each other, let alone work together. If the Ai family forgives Zhao Shun, how will they explain to Zhao Yi?"

Nanny Meng nodded, "The empress dowager is right. Now that you have the help of the elder son, and the regent has also lost power, the elder son is more suitable."

"Zhao Shun is a cunning person. Maybe this move is to make Aijia relax his vigilance and be complacent, so as to pave the way for him to restore his status. Aijia is not that stupid and won't fall into his tricks. It's just... I don't know Su'er What did you say to him?" The Empress Dowager said worriedly.

"Empress Dowager, don't worry, our Sixth Highness has now made great efforts to govern, and has matured a lot, and will not trust the regent's words lightly." Meng Nam said.

"I hope so."

……

Another quarter of an hour later, the palace guards sent by the Empress Dowager returned to Zening Palace.

Mother Meng hurriedly asked: "How is it? Have you found out everything?"

"Go back to the Queen Mother, today the regent went to Suwang's other courtyard, just sat for a while, drank a cup of tea and left. At that time, there were only two people in the study, His Royal Highness Suwang and the regent. As for what they said, the other courtyard The people in it don't know." The guard said.

After hearing this, the Empress Dowager was a little angry, she put the beads in her hand on the table, and said: "A bunch of useless things, they can't even figure out such a trivial matter."

The guard who went to inquire quickly knelt down and said, "The Empress Dowager, calm down."

"Okay, you go down first." The Empress Dowager said.

"Subordinates retire."

The guard stood up and left the inner hall.

"If the Empress Dowager wants to know what they talked about, why not ask His Highness the Sixth Highness directly?" Mother Meng said.

"Su'er won't tell Aijia, that's all, no matter what they say, it won't change Aijia's mind." The Empress Dowager said.
