Mrs. Wu beat the censor for the front foot, and then put on an imperial uniform with Mrs. Wu and went to the palace to find the empress dowager to kiss her.

After presenting the imperial edict for the marriage, Mrs. Wu said, "Empress Dowager, my Yi'an has not yet been well-behaved, and it is not appropriate to marry and have children. I also hope that the Empress Dowager will choose another lady from a famous family for the emperor."

When I said this, my tone was tough.

Zhang Wenwen's eyes flashed with an unknown light when she heard this next to her. If she really canceled the engagement with the Wu family, she might not be able to become the queen. Unfortunately, the empress dowager's words quickly broke this fantasy.

The Empress Dowager personally helped the two of them up and said, "Old Madam, these are all rumors released by people with ulterior motives. Don't worry, the Emperor is already thoroughly investigating this matter. If the envoy behind the scenes is found, he will definitely be severely punished."

The Empress Dowager comforted Mrs. Wu in a gentle voice for a long time, and waited until the emperor came over before he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Emotionally speaking, she wished her son would not marry Wu Yian. Unfortunately, the marriage was impossible to cancel. The Wu family has been loyal to the court for generations, and the prince sacrificed his life for the country not long ago. If they dared to withdraw from their bride, they would have lost the hearts of the civil and military officials in the court. How could the emperor sit on the dragon throne?

The emperor came over to Mrs. Wu and said, "Old Madam, I have already found out about this matter. The origin of the rumor is the third room of the Zhang family."

This third wife of the Zhang family is the queen mother's uncle's family.

Before the empress dowager could speak, the emperor said, "Don't worry, old lady, I will definitely punish them severely."

Mrs. Wu didn't ask much, but said, "The old woman is waiting for the emperor's good news at home."

After the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law left, the queen mother said, "If you do something wrong, you need to punish me, but it is a family. The emperor, for the sake of your third grandfather, you have bypassed your third aunt this time."

If such a big storm occurs, if the Zhang family is not punished, the Duke's Mansion will not be able to explain it. Therefore, the Empress Dowager means to punish the minor precepts.

The emperor said with a calm face: "Mother, they dare to slander and spread rumors about the future queen, and their hearts are punished."

The Zhang family caused trouble several times, but this time, even the future queen dared to make up rumors.

The emperor said to Yuanbao: "Transfer my oral order, and slap Zhang Miao in the face for fifty years and exiled to Liaodong."

Zhang Wenwen didn't expect the consequences to be so serious, and she suddenly felt her feet weak.

The empress dowager said with red eyes: "Yao Li, how could your third aunt be able to withstand the pain of exile at such an old age? Yao Li, although your third aunt is wrong, she will not die."

The emperor looked at the empress dowager and said coldly: "If you really pursue the matter, it will not be her own business."

The Queen Mother said, "She is not the queen yet."

The emperor's eyes were a little cold and said, "My mother, I wanted me to go back on my word before, but now I want me to make a change every day. Mother, what do you want to do?"

The empress dowager was so angry that she trembled all over, pointing at the emperor and said, "Where did you really do this? Yun Yaoli, do you want to force me to death?"

The emperor said lightly: "My mother, if you dare to spread rumors, you have to bear the consequences of spreading rumors. You have only punished her and left her face to the mother mother, otherwise I will not let any of these people go."

How did the people from the third bedroom of the Zhang family know that Yi An was not suitable for raising her body? I think it was reported from the palace.

The emperor actually suspected that this matter was related to Zhang Wenwen, but he did not find any evidence. The emperor would not touch her, otherwise his mother would definitely make a fuss.

The third wife of the Zhang family was severely punished, and no one dared to criticize Yi'an in public again.

Although Yi'an and Qingshu were in the hot spring village, they also knew about the capital as soon as possible.

When Qingshu heard the third wife of the Zhang family exiled to Liaodong, he smiled and said, "She slandered you, but the emperor exiled her to Liaodong again. I'm afraid he'd be scared to death."

Yi An didn't take Mrs. Zhang seriously at all. She said: "It's just a scapegoat, and the initiator stayed safely in Cining Palace."

When Qingshu heard this, the smile on his face stopped: "The Queen Mother is very prejudiced to you, and you have no chance of ease this time."

Yi An used to want to live in peace with the Empress Dowager, but as soon as the incident happened this time, she knew that it was a luxury. She didn't care, she was not afraid of it.

As the two were talking, Mo Ying came over to tell them something: "The Queen Mother is sick, Zhang Wenwen took the initiative to go to Lingshan Temple to have vegetarian food for three months to pray for the Queen Mother."

Yi An said disdainfully: "It's just a trick to pretend to be good and clever."

Qingshu shook his head and said, "Yi An, don't underestimate her. This girl is very sensible and wanted to be friends with me before."

Yi An said with a smile: "Don't worry, I don't underestimate anyone. My father used to tell us that we could despise the enemy strategically, but we must pay attention to every enemy tactically."

Qingshu couldn't help but ask strangely: "You have grown up in the capital since you were a child. When did the Duke teach you the art of war?"

"When I was a child, I spent half of my time in the capital and half of my time in Tongcheng! At that time, my father would often tell us about our ancestors' heroic achievements and military strategies."

Qingshu immediately understood why Yi An had such good psychological quality. It turned out that all this was the credit of the Duke.

After chatting for a few words, Qingshu said, "I have been here for so long and have to go back to Beijing."

Yi An was a little reluctant, but she couldn't say anything. Not only were there many things waiting for her to deal with in the capital, but also Brother Fu'er!

"My grandmother and mother will have to go to the village for two days, otherwise I will go back with you."

Qingshu hurriedly waved his hand and said, "You'd better not go back to Beijing with me. You can live a quiet life here for a few more days. If you return to Beijing, the Empress Dowager will definitely call you into the palace."

Yi An smiled and said, "See her whenever she sees her, why are she afraid of her doing? Besides, she can escape eleven or fifteen. After the wedding, she will be able to meet her every day."

Qingshu smiled and said, "I'm afraid but not afraid, but I think it affects my mood."

"Yi'an, the eldest princess must drink the soup and water for you, so don't pour it secretly."

Yi An quickly said, "What are you talking nonsense? When did I pour out those things?"

Qingshu didn't argue with her, but just said, "Now that your health is well, you can only suffer less after you have children."

Speaking of the child, Yi An couldn't help but say, "Actually, I think it's good to not have a child. From pregnancy to having a child in the palace, it's not an exaggeration to say that you can take your life."

Therefore, it is great to be a ready-made mother. As for the future, as long as you have great power, you will still be worried about having no place to rely on! By then, the only concubine will be able to please her.

Qingshu's mouth twitched: "Then you can choose not to have a child after the wedding!"
