This one from the Compassionate Ning Palace was also a vigorous and ruthless master when he was young.But now that I am old, I start eating vegetarian food and reciting Buddha's name, so as to cultivate my body and mind.This empress dowager lives in seclusion and hardly sees outsiders, even though Chang Le grew up in the palace, she rarely sees this imperial grandmother.

As soon as Chang Lefu entered, he saw the Empress Dowager lying on the couch slightly.The clothes on her body are all dark, simple and unremarkable.The only eye-catching thing on her whole body is the string of bright yellow beeswax beads in her hand.

Green smoke billowed from the censer in the corner of the hall, and a faint and elegant sandalwood fragrance emanated from the entire hall.The palace people all stood quietly in their positions, except for the empress dowager whispering and indistinct Buddhist scriptures, there was no noise in the huge place.

In the entire harem where all kinds of intrigues are desperately spreading, this quiet place seems to be the last piece of pure land.

Chang Le hastily swept around, and respectfully stepped forward to salute the Queen Mother.

The prayer beads twirling in the Empress Dowager's hands stopped at the same time as the scriptures she was chanting silently.She closed her eyes, it seemed that it took a long time to react, and she smiled slowly: "Yes... so it is Changle."

Her eyes opened as she spoke, and the wrinkles all over her face stretched out.Although the queen mother is old, when she opened her eyes, against the backdrop of those shining pupils, it seemed that she suddenly became 20 years younger, and she couldn't see the desolation and desolation of being old in her body. Sad.

Before the palace servants stepped forward, Chang Le took the first step to support the Queen Mother's body, and gently helped her to sit up.

"Little Changle is so big." The queen mother held Changle's hand in her hand, her voice was very kind and soft, not at all the harshness of the queen mother who was holding Changle in her hand.

In Chang Le's perception, the skin on her hands was terribly rough, not as smooth as that of a lady from a famous family, which surprised Chang Le.When she touched Chang Le's hand, the rough fingers touched the skin, making Chang Le feel a tingling pain spreading.Chang Le thought for a while and said with a smile: "Then Chang Le will come to pay respects to the imperial grandmother more often in the future, so that the imperial grandmother will not feel too sudden when watching Chang Le grow up."

The queen mother paused slightly, and said with a soft smile: "Good boy, good boy, you are really sensible. The emperor has already told me that you have suffered this time."

Chang Le didn't expect her to speak comforting words, the prestige of the former iron-blooded queen was known to almost everyone in the Daqing Dynasty, and everyone knew it.When the first emperor succeeded to the throne, the eight kings rebelled, and soldiers came to the city. However, the first emperor was ambushed, and he was seriously injured and unconscious.In the end, with the help of the contradictions between the Eight Kings, they tried every means to alienate them, and finally waited for the arrival of reinforcements to turn the tide.

This is also an achievement that can be recorded in the annals of history in the history of the Daqing Dynasty.Has such a legendary figure lost all his temper just because he was old?Changle naturally didn't believe it.What's more, in the few contacts she had with the queen mother in the past, she had always been indifferent to her, with a distant and indifferent attitude.Although her words were few, they contained absolute indisputability.This is what everyone is used to, and it is also in line with the identity of the Queen Mother.Changle had never seen such a pleasant appearance.

Chang Le suppressed the doubts in his heart, and whispered softly: "It was originally Chang Le's negligence, Lao Father and Grandmother bothered."

There was a long silence after that, the queen mother finally put away the rosary, and said lightly: "You let the servants retreat first."

This is something to tell her.As long as she knows the reason for the queen mother's abnormality, she can prescribe the right medicine to deal with it.On the contrary, Chang Le breathed a sigh of relief, and she subconsciously glanced at Xi Shi.Xi Shi probably also heard the Queen Mother's words, and was looking up at her quietly, as if waiting for her to give an order.Seeing her looking over, she lowered her head slightly knowingly, and walked out together with Goya without hesitation.

Doesn't she have any other thoughts?Chang Le couldn't help frowning slightly, even if she had doubts in her heart, Xi Shi's every move was in order, and she couldn't find a trace of abnormality.

"It's your third brother Su He who is in charge of the Jingji Imperial Army." The queen mother slowly twisted the prayer beads in her hand again, her voice was unhurried, and Chang Le also looked away and listened quietly.

Yan Wang Su He is her third elder brother.His biological mother was Zhaorong, who had a difficult labor when she gave birth to Su He, so that the root cause of the disease fell, and she died early.Later, Su He was raised under the empress's name by Emperor Jing. Chang Le still remembered that when she was young, she had a pretty good relationship with this imperial brother.It's just that after Su and Jiaguan became kings and built their mansions, there was basically no communication between them.

Although Su He's mother died early, his mother's family was strong, and he was smart and steady since childhood, so he was favored by the emperor.In the battle with Su Yong, he has always had the upper hand.

"Some time ago you were ambushed, and your father had an attack on the thousands of soldiers of the Imperial Army who were on duty that day. Later, he called your third brother into the palace. He also had a good meal and was fined for three months. The position of commander is temporarily entrusted to the mighty general Sanlang Li Feng."

Changle almost immediately remembered who this Li Feng was.In the past, Emperor Jing mobilized 5 horses in the Zhenbei Army that opposed the barbarians in the north.These [-] soldiers and horses were led back to Beijing by Li Feng, the third son of the mighty general, commander of the Zhenbei Army.

This formidable general, Li Gan, was a courtier left by the first emperor to Emperor Jing. The Li family was loyal and never stood in line, only loyal to the emperor.After several generations of dynasties, it still stands tall.Although the power of the family has been continuously reduced, the glory on the head is still shining brightly.

Li Qian is a royalist through and through. In the future, he will support and support the crown prince appointed by Emperor Jing. No matter who is in the future, if he wants to compete with the orthodoxy set by the emperor for that position, the Li family where Li Gan belongs will be unavoidable. Hom.The Li family has been in the army for generations, and they have led as many soldiers as a cow, and the military power held by Li Gan can directly command 40 soldiers at Zhenbei Pass.

With 40 soldiers, as long as they can hold this army in their hands, even if they directly attack the imperial city and go north to force the palace, it is not impossible.

Thinking of this, Chang Le was startled.She only thought of the mighty general Li Gan, but she forgot that his third son Li Feng had grown up now.Li Gan is a royalist through and through, but what about his son?Although Li Feng was deeply trusted by his father, and even deliberately appointed him to lead the troops back to Beijing this time, he had no intention of cultivating him well.But Li Feng is still too young, he is young, energetic, and has a spirit of not being afraid of tigers as a newborn calf, but in the current situation, what positive effect can this kind of thing play?He is young, so his biggest shortcoming is that he is inexperienced, lacks experience, and is not as knowledgeable as his father.

Changle was assassinated and almost died.King Su He of Yan could not protect the lives of his soldiers. Not to mention his loss of military morale, his military power was also deprived, and his power was greatly weakened.In this incident, the biggest beneficiary was Li Feng, the current commander of the imperial army, who leaped thousands of miles from a white body, and the emperor's table was covered with papers opposed by the censors, but none of them changed his mind.

The [-] northern army brought back by Li Feng, together with the [-] Yulin Army that was originally directly under the emperor, and the [-] recruits recruited formed the new imperial army in the capital.As long as you have this trump card in hand, no matter what you want to do next will be much smoother.

There are too many coincidences in this incident, as if there is an invisible hand controlling the development of all events.An absurd guess even floated in Chang Le's mind: everything started with the appearance of the Four Seas Trading Company.She became interested in Sihai Trading Company, so after receiving the invitation from Sihai Trading Company, she chose to attend the banquet without hesitation.That is to say, the owner of the Four Seas Trading Company gave Xishi to her.Later, she was assassinated on the way back, and then a series of things happened after that, so that Li Feng could take this position smoothly.

Chang Le didn't need to think much at all to understand that the King of Yan might hold her grudge.Even if this matter has nothing to do with her, it is because of her.But according to Chang Le's thoughts at the moment, think about this series of things again... I dare not say anything else, Chang Le can be sure that her second brother Su Yong definitely has such a plan.

It's really funny, if this is the case, then what is the Four Seas Trading Company?What is the so-called story of finding a husband from afar?What role did Xishi play in this matter?
