Chapter 93 Conversation Between Husband and Wife

The Empress Dowager received Han Shan's letter from Flying Pigeon and held it firmly in her hand, a smile gradually appeared on her face.

Eunuch Sun asked: "Queen Mother, how about it? Is there a good plan?"

The Empress Dowager smiled and said: "Yes, she has already given a good plan, or her old man has a plan to prevent Xia Wan'er from marrying the crown prince, and let Prime Minister Xia take refuge with Concubine Mei, then Prime Minister Xia cannot form an alliance with the Tai Tuo, and the two will form a confrontation , That's great, it's the same as your analysis before, no wonder she left you by Aijia's side."

Eunuch Sun smiled, "Now the queen mother is the master of the slaves."

"It's just," the empress dowager became worried, "here we only talk about the solution in the future, what about now? The courtiers are forcing Ai's family like this, and the old man is going back to Beijing. How to solve this problem?"

She read the reply carefully again, and she was sure that nothing was mentioned.

Eunuch Sun comforted: "Since the old master didn't say anything, it must be beyond the scope of worry."

"You mean?" The empress dowager raised suspicious eyes.

"Xia Zian is the key." Eunuch Sun smiled.

The empress dowager looked at the reply letter, Xia Zian was mentioned three times in the letter, it seems that this Xia Zian also caught her old man's eyes.

"What should the Ai family do now?" the Empress Dowager asked.

Eunuch Sun helped her to sit down and said: "You, you don't have to do anything. You just pretend to be sick every day. No one will come. Then, if you get tired from kneeling, you will naturally go back."

"But……"

"No but, if there is any but, the old master will definitely explain it clearly in the letter. If she didn't say it, then don't pay attention to everything."

The Empress Dowager nodded, looked at the letter again, and read three words between her lips and teeth, "Xia Zian?"

She raised her head and looked at Eunuch Sun, "Is this Xia Zian really so capable? Is he the one who restrains the Prime Minister's family?"

"The old master must have a reason for saying this." Eunuch Sun said firmly.

The empress dowager hummed, "In that case, the Ai family really doesn't need to worry too much."

Outside the hall, more than 30 officials were still kneeling outside, and the sun was so fierce that they were dizzy from the heat.

The military generals were better, but those scholars and officials couldn't stand it any longer, their official uniforms were drenched in sweat, their bodies were sticky and stuffy, and some of them were already crumbling.

Liang Taifu was secretly surprised that the Empress Dowager was really so calm?

At the same time, the movement in the Prime Minister's Mansion was a bit surprising. The old lady issued a strict order that everyone must be strictly checked when entering and leaving the mansion. People from outside the mansion can only enter the mansion after being interrogated.

Of course, those who know the way can see that the old lady is guarding against the intrusion of traitors.

Xia Huaijun is the prime minister of the current dynasty, with great power. Although he was suppressed by the regent before and temporarily lost his edge, but now that the regent is dead, it is just around the corner for the prime minister to regain power.

At this moment, many people came to ask for help. So many empresses with children in the harem hoped that their sons would be supported. If you expand it, you can compete with the prince, a waste.

Now that the Prime Minister has recognized the prince as the master, the old lady is naturally unwilling to let other concubines come to the house, lest the prince and Tai Tu know and create a rift.

On this day, Concubine Mei ordered someone to come out of the palace, but the old lady refused to see her, and asked the messenger to go back and tell Concubine Mei to send Xia Lin out of the palace.

Seeing that the situation has changed now, Concubine Mei wanted to ask the prime minister for help, but she didn't expect her own people to be turned away.

She lost her temper for a long time, and then asked in surprise: "The old lady told me to send Xia Lin out of the palace? Nonsense, Xia Lin hasn't been here since the last time, how can I send it?"

The palace people replied to the old lady according to the original words, but the old lady didn't believe it, thinking that Concubine Mei wanted to hold Xia Lin in the palace to intimidate the prime minister.

She told the visitor coldly, "You will go back to Concubine Mei. Xia Lin can stay as long as she likes. If Concubine Mei likes it, it doesn't matter if she raises her for a lifetime. She is a waste anyway."

The old lady does not dislike Xia Lin in her heart, she is a grandson anyway, she said this just to prevent herself and the Xiangfu from being controlled by Concubine Mei, and to let Concubine Mei know that it is useless for her to hold Xia Lin hostage. It is easy to be restrained by her.

Concubine Mei was even more angry when she heard the report, "On weekdays, when she asked for help from this palace, she would be the one who was in front of the queen. Linlin sent her to hide somewhere else, so she set up such a trap for this palace to let outsiders know that his prime minister's house and this palace have enmity, so that the prince and Liang Taifu can trust his loyalty, and Xia Wan'er can marry the prince and become the prince Concubine, bah! If the prince really likes such a mean family, he will be in bad luck. I really hope that Zi'an will come back, tear off those shameless skins, and see if the flesh inside is red. Still black."

Concubine Mei could only yell, the current situation made her very desperate.

The third prince still has two or three years before he can be crowned king, and his natal family also has certain power, if the prince gains power, he will take her and the third prince first.

She had no choice but to send someone to find Prime Minister Xia. She thought that he would take care of her for the sake of her relatives, but she never thought that she would close the door and not even see her. It really chilled her. .

The palace man suggested: "Empress Meifei, why don't you go and find the eldest princess, no one dares to offend her in the court, if she is willing to come forward to protect the third prince, we will be saved."

Concubine Mei thought for a while, she had very little contact with Murong Zhuangzhuang, who knew if she would help her?

But now there is no other way, so he sent someone to invite Murong Zhuang into the palace.

Murong Zhuangzhuang is now only focused on looking for Murong Jie, no one in Concubine Mei's palace can find her, Concubine Mei is desperate, even Concubine Yi has offended her, who else can she rely on?

Compared to Concubine Mei's despair, the Prime Minister's mansion is now proud.

Prime Minister Xia seemed to have seen that the future queen was his own daughter, and because of this, he treated Madam Linglong better.

On this day, he unexpectedly came to Xiazhi Garden for the first time, and he treated Yuan Shi very well.

This is the first time that the husband and wife have been relatively silent or meet each other like ice for more than ten years, and they can sit down and have a good chat.

In the past few days, he also thought a lot. Thinking of the past, he felt that it was reckless for him to go to Prince An. When Yuan Shi married, she should have her own in her heart.

So, here he is today.

"I heard that you are not in good health, so I brought you some supplements to take good care of you." Prime Minister Xia stared at Yuan Shi, and couldn't help sighing in his heart, these years really didn't leave much marks on her face.

For her, the ups and downs of the past ten years seemed to pass by in a flash.

Yuan Shi said: "Thank you!" His attitude was neither humble nor overbearing, his expression was calm, and he could not see the emotions in his heart.
