After being a widow, the empress dowager was favored by the powerful ministers

Chapter 65
In the dream, she still never gave up on the little emperor, and she always wanted to lead the little emperor on the right path and fulfill the responsibility of upbringing. On the one hand, it was because of the entrustment of the late emperor.

But on the other side, the treacherous ministers followed suit to win the favor of the little emperor so that he could be promoted to a higher position.

The people complained endlessly, dared to be angry and dare not speak out.

When she realized that she wanted to take back the power from the little emperor, it was already too late. Instead, she was imprisoned in the palace by the little emperor, tormented day and night. I don't know what year and month, and finally fell seriously ill and couldn't get out of bed.

All ministers who gave advice were killed.

No one dared to speak after that.

At this moment, a civil official who was loyal to the imperial court, frail and sickly, coughed a few times in the winter, raised the sword for the first time with the hands that had only held the pen. .

But because of this, he fell into the tricks of the little emperor, was charged with a crime of rebellion, died under countless swords, and did not leave a whole body in the end.

An important minister of the three dynasties saved dozens of members of Pei's family with an imperial decree left by the late emperor who had been handed over by Sheng Baoling in the past.

However, the little emperor was willing to let the Pei family know the situation and gave him something made of Pei Ci's flesh and blood, and ordered his servants to watch the Pei family eat it alive.

And she, when she heard the news of Pei Ci's death, was overwhelmed with grief, her black hair turned into gorgeous hair, and finally died on the couch.

Each of these dreams was more real than the other, as if they had actually happened, even though she couldn't really feel them.

But every time I wake up from the dream, there is a wave of panic and anxiety, as if this kind of thing will happen at any time.

Especially one of the dreams came true in Pei's residence.

This feeling of uneasiness was exacerbated.

Sheng Baoling couldn't imagine that if everything in the dream had come true...

What will it be like then.

Sheng Baoling was upset, and buried half of his head in the soup pool, letting his whole body be submerged in the water, and didn't get up until he was almost out of breath.

But she already had some thoughts in her heart, and she will wait and see again, if the situation will really develop as in her dream, if she takes a ten thousand step back, she can see the secret and have a way to deal with it.

No matter how much the first emperor entrusted him, compared with the common people, the first emperor himself would definitely choose the latter.

What the court and the people need is a good king for the country and the people, not a tyrannical and senseless king.

If the little emperor walks the right path and has a good heart, she will naturally hand over the power in his hands one day.

However, he had to stay on the defensive.

Her stepson under the name, I'm afraid that what kind of vicious heart is hidden under the obedient appearance, he doesn't look like a child at all.

Standing up from the Tangchi, Jian Jia hurriedly stepped forward, put on her clothes, and said, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager is here."

The concubine came here yesterday, but she was turned away on the pretext of taking a rest, but she came again today.

It's nothing more than for Jing Wang's marriage.

Seeing that King Jing is going back to the border at the end of the month, how can the concubine be in a hurry.

In fact, everyone knew in their hearts that King Jing's return to the border had both advantages and disadvantages. For the little emperor, King Jing had made great achievements in battle and had a high reputation. Putting King Jing back to the border with military power was tantamount to returning the tiger to the mountain, and the disadvantages outweighed the advantages.

What he wants to do is to confine King Jing in Bianjing and become an idle and powerless prince.

But for the concubine who has always been weak, what she wants is to have her own son by her side to protect herself. Therefore, for her, the advantages of King Jing staying in Bianjing outweigh the disadvantages.

Sheng Baoling avoided the concubine several times, but in fact also intended to let King Jing return to the border.

Jian Jia could probably guess what her own concubine meant, so several times, she found a reason to dismiss the concubine.

But at this moment, Sheng Baoling changed his mind.

Perhaps, Prince Jing should stay in Bianjing.

Sheng Baoling: "Tea and cakes are served, let her wait for a while."

Jian Jia was taken aback, "Yes."

...

Concubine Tai and Sheng Baoling talked about a number of aristocratic women in Beijing, some of whom were docile and generous, and they seemed to be a good match for Prince Jing.

It's just that it doesn't seem like King Jing would like it.

If Prince Jing liked it, the concubine wouldn't come to Sheng Baoling again and again at this moment, just for the purpose of bestowing a marriage.

Sheng Baoling flipped through the roster in his hand with his fingertips. On it were the names, portraits, and family situations of the girls of each family.

Concubine Toffee picked people from prominent families, presumably because of Prince Jing's influence.

With a powerful Yue family, in Bianjing City, the concubine's life will be easier, and King Jing can also get this help.

However, once the power of the Yue family is gained, King Jing will definitely be more feared by the little emperor. Therefore, the candidate for Princess Jing must not be on this list.

Under the ardent eyes of the concubine, Sheng Baoling closed the roster. Obviously, he was not satisfied with the people on the roster.

"Has King Jing seen it?" Sheng Baoling asked in a deep voice.

Concubine Toffee's eyes dodged a little, "Of course I've seen it."

Sheng Baoling: "What does King Jing think?"

The concubine smiled, but she didn't meet Sheng Baoling's gaze. She seemed to avoid it intentionally, and said with a smile, "Naturally, we all follow the arrangements of the elders."

"The order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, I see, the girls above are all good."

Sheng Baoling put the brochure on the table next to him, "King Jing is not too young, so it's time to settle down."

The concubine, who was still a little apprehensive at first, was afraid that Sheng Baoling would not agree to this matter, but when she heard this, the big stone hanging in her heart fell to the ground.

But when she looked at the booklet and wanted to talk about the daughter-in-law she had chosen in her heart, Sheng Baoling said, "It's just that not everyone can be this Princess Jing, so this booklet is placed here at Ai's house, waiting to be mourned." I asked King Jing again what he meant."

Concubine Toffee's heart suddenly "thumped", Yue'er didn't want to get married at all!
If you ask him what he means, the matter will definitely be left alone.

"Empress Dowager, you should make the decision on the matter of marriage first, and it will not be too late to ask Yue Er later."

Jian Jia on the side frowned, the concubine was so good at making progress, seeing that King Jing didn't work, she wanted to leave her place.

If Niangniang really disregarded King Jing's wishes and decided on the marriage, King Jing still doesn't know how he will treat Niangniang.

At that time, there will be a rift between the two, and the concubine will probably be happier.

Sheng Baoling didn't know what the concubine was thinking. With a cold face and a lukewarm gaze, she cast her eyes on the concubine, as if she had some authority. Seeing the concubine's heart shook, she dared not say more.

Perhaps she also felt that she came to look for her several times, which was very annoying, but Sheng Baoling also gave her a reassurance.

"The Ai family will negotiate with the officials about Prince Jing's marriage and consider it carefully. The concubine does not need to worry."

After hearing Sheng Baoling's words, the concubine finally felt relieved, knowing that she had really accepted the matter.

It's just that Jian Jia next to her has never been able to understand...

Why did the empress suddenly agree to choose this Princess Jing for King Jing?
Previously, it was clear that His Royal Highness King Jing had agreed to leave Bianjing.
