Chapter 1880 Disgraced
"So what about a beautiful room? What do you want to say?"
"I didn't want to say anything, I just... told Brother Huang."
"Are you trying to sow discord?" Zhao Yuanjing said with a cold face, "I know that the Queen is leaving the palace. I also know that the little emperor's uncle is a frequent visitor to Huayun House. They just met there by chance. Yuan Jing, you are in a hurry. Come and complain to me impatiently, what do you want to do?"
Yuan Jian panicked and said hurriedly: "No, Brother Huang, you have misunderstood. I really didn't mean to provoke. I just mentioned it casually to Brother Huang."
"I'm pregnant. Isn't it good to just stay at home and have a good pregnancy? How can it be appropriate for a majestic princess to imitate women in the market and gossip everywhere?" Zhao Yuanjing said in a stern voice.
"Yuan Jian knows his mistake. Yuan Jian will not dare to do it again in the future."
Yuan Jiao lowered his head, tears welling up in his eyes.
"go out."
"Yes, Yuan Jiao is resigning."
Yuan Jiao was displeased and left the imperial study room in disgrace.
She stood outside and cried a lot. After wiping away her tears, she felt aggrieved again.
The maid asked her: "Princess, are we still going to Ci'an Palace?"
"go."
When you come to Ci'an Palace, you have to wait outside.
The Empress Dowager is meeting with Prince Gong.
Prince Gong didn't get any favors from the emperor, so he was naturally unwilling to give in, so he came to the Empress Dowager to plead for mercy.
In terms of seniority, the Queen Mother was his sister-in-law, which meant that the Queen Mother had to call him eldest brother.
In the entire Zhou royal family, he should be the highest-ranking person alive.
Therefore, the Empress Dowager also gave him some face.
"Prince Gong, your son is indeed incompetent." The Empress Dowager was also unhappy, "At least you can find him an official position so that he can do something serious. He just idles around all day, but how dare you tease him in the street? The Queen and Yue Xi are in trouble. He can't blame the Queen for teaching him a lesson."
Prince Gong said: "I know that Xing'er is useless, but no matter how useless he is, he is still the flesh and blood of our Zhao family. I am half buried in the earth. I have been looking forward to a son for most of my life, but I only have this one. You, the Queen Mother, can't Just watch him disappear! Our Zhao royal family is becoming increasingly sparse, how can we afford to lose one more person?"
These words touched the sore spot of the Empress Dowager.
She has always hoped that the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty would prosper and ensure that the great Zhou Dynasty would last forever.
But the fact is worrying: the number of members of the royal family is getting smaller and smaller.
When it came to the emperor's generation, it was passed down alone.
This is her biggest worry.
"Where is Xing'er now?" she asked.
"In the prison of the government office." Prince Gong sighed, "How can my pampered son endure the hardships of prison? He might even be beaten..."
"You didn't go to see the emperor?"
"The emperor said that he would confine Xing'er for three to five years. This is obviously to vent the Queen's anger." Prince Gong said, "Xing'er did not recognize the Queen, and his words were indeed frivolous. But he has already suffered from the Queen. Why should he be punished so severely for a beating? This would simply kill him."
The Empress Dowager frowned: "Since the Emperor has spoken, it is not easy for the Ai family to refute."
"The Empress Dowager, you can't ignore it. The Queen is wronged, but she also took out her anger. Aren't the lives of our descendants of the Zhao family worth the grievances of the Queen?"
"Oh, that's right too."
The Queen Mother's recent dissatisfaction with Yun Dai also emerged at this moment, "If the Queen hadn't gone out to show off, how could this happen? Xing'er didn't know she was the Queen. After all, the Queen was also at fault."
