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

Chapter 88
Sheng Baoling had a smile on his face. While caring for the little emperor, he prepared dishes for the little emperor and asked a few questions from time to time, just like an ordinary caring mother who cares about her son.

The dishes she picked up were almost all the ones that the little emperor didn't like.

But the little emperor sent them to his mouth one by one, and gradually, his face changed from the original indifference to a faint smile, "The ministers will come to eat with the queen mother more often from now on, and the queen mother should not dislike the children and ministers." .”

Sheng Baoling groaned with a smile, his eyes were full of concern, "How could it be that this Hall of Compassion is usually too quiet, you can come to eat with Ai's family, Ai's heart is too late to be happy, how can you hate you? "

The two are better than each other, Jian Jia and Qiu Yi at the side, if they don't know the truth, they will think that these two are really mother and child.

Seeing the little emperor eating all these things that he didn't touch in daily life bite by bite without changing his face, Sheng Baoling maintained a charming smile all the time.

It's not a pleasant meal for a dinner.

Until the moment when the little emperor finally put down his chopsticks and walked out of the hall, the smile on Sheng Baoling's face disappeared in an instant, and his eyes became cold, without a trace of warmth.

Jian Jia asked, "Your Majesty, do you need some more?"

Originally, seeing Sheng Baoling went to Pei's mansion today, he seemed to be in a good mood, so he ordered the people in the kitchen to cook more food, thinking that his appetite should be good.

Who knows that the official's family is here, and at this moment, the empress doesn't even need a few mouthfuls.

However, Sheng Baoling lost interest in eating, instead he thought of the lunch he had at Pei's mansion during the day, although it was not a delicacy, it tasted very good.

Compared with this, the things in front of me are dull.

"Withdraw."

As she said that, with the support of Qiu Yi, she got up and walked inside, apparently a little tired.

Jian Jia couldn't feel relieved at all.

During the day, the empress leaves the palace, but at night, the official family comes.

Is it true that the officials have not noticed the empress leaving the palace for more than half a year?

At this time, Sheng Baoling, who was half leaning on the reclining chair, flipped through the book in his hand, listening to Qiu Yi talking about many things that happened outside the palace in the past few days.

The matter that was handed over to Liang Yu for investigation had already begun to emerge, and now Li Fang was in a hurry to find connections to save his son's life, but he didn't know that he himself was already in danger.

The relationship he was looking for was nothing more than Taishi Lou and the others.

Sheng Baoling hooked her thin lips, "Keep an eye on Li Shangshu, don't let anyone get ahead of you."

If there is no way to save people, most of these people will choose to silence them in order to protect themselves.

You can't let Li Fang die.

Qiu Yi responded, although she was wrong about Sheng Baoling's thoughts last time, but she was never wrong about these unrelated business matters, "Don't worry, empress, this slave will know."

Sheng Baoling nodded slightly, with a faint smile on his lips, "With you and Jian Jia by my side, Aijia's heart is much more at ease."

Jian Jia is in charge of the affairs inside the palace, and Qiuyi is in charge of the affairs outside the palace. It can be said that neither side needs her to worry about it, so she can feel at ease.

When Sheng Baoling said so, Qiuyi's heart also warmed up, "It is the duty of a servant to share the worries for the empress."

...

The case many years ago was pulled out and re-investigated. Li Fang's son was indeed involved in a murder case, and because of this case, many officials who were not virtuous in the past were involved, but now they are no longer the petty officials of the past.

When Sheng Baoling learned of this, he was furious, and the little emperor's expression became even more ugly, and he directly ordered Liang Yu to handle the matter strictly.

Li Fang and the others were as anxious as ants on the hot pot.

What Li Fang was anxious about was how to save his own son, and what other people were anxious about was how to destroy all these things of the past and the account books in Li Fang's hands.

Sheng Baoling and the others were also curious about what Li Fang and the others would do in the end.

But what Sheng Baoling didn't expect was that it was originally only aimed at the Ministry of Household Affairs, but unexpectedly involved the Ministry of Criminal Justice as well...

Li Fang's son was sentenced to death. On the day of execution, Li Fang fainted on the spot and fell ill in the mansion.

And in the middle of the night, Liang Yu and his men were at the back door of the Li Mansion, but they bumped into Li Fang and the wife of the mansion to send away Mr. Li who should have been "beheaded" on the spot.

The family was arrested on the spot.

The Ministry of Punishment abused its power and replaced Young Master Li with another prisoner on death row, which immediately spread.

All relevant persons were dismissed and investigated.

Originally, it was just Li Fang from the household department, but now the punishment department was involved, and the little emperor was furious, and privately scolded Grand Master Lou.

When Taishi Lou came out of the imperial study, his face was ashen.

When Jian Jia told these vivid stories to Sheng Baoling, she had a smile on her face. The criminal department could have watched the play from the sidelines, but was dragged in by Grand Master Lou, just to save the young master of the Li family.

At this moment, I'm afraid my intestines are full of regret.

Unexpectedly, they would never have imagined that in each of the six departments, there had been eyeliners arranged by the empress long ago. This sentence is certain, but they are all under the control of the empress.

This time, the Ministry of Criminal Justice has stumbled.

Things were not as expected by Sheng Baoling, but it was a big gift to the Ministry of Punishment by mistake.

Next, the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Punishment will be exchanged. Qi Jun and others should also show their faces.

Sheng Baoling holds the chess piece in his hand and puts the chess piece on the board. Originally, the white piece and the black piece are evenly matched, but it is such a seemingly inconspicuous position that allows the white piece to gain the upper hand in an instant.

How many sunspots have lost is an irreversible fact.

The little emperor should be in a hurry this time.

And things were just as Sheng Baoling had originally planned. Since there were too many people involved in these cases from the Ministry of Accounting and the Ministry of Criminal Justice, the Ministry of Accounting and the Ministry of Criminal Justice could not be idle for a day. With someone recommending them, Qi Jun took advantage of the opportunity to show up. Given the opportunity, Sheng Baoling took advantage of the situation and ordered him to take up the post of minister temporarily to handle government affairs.

As for the criminal department, Sheng Baoling's people also had the opportunity to take the lead, and everything was far easier and simpler than she had originally imagined.

In fact, what Sheng Baoling didn't know was that Pei Ci put a lot of effort into it, which made it so smooth.

It was because the incident happened suddenly. Originally, Grand Master Lou wanted to change Lou Shang's school to study in order to prepare for the spring of the next year. Now he was involved in Li Fang's matter and folded the Ministry of punishment into it, but he had no time to spare. Take care of Lou Shang.

On Sheng Baoling's side, he had a lot of leisure time, and he went to Pei's mansion more diligently, but the discussions with Pei Ci were all business matters, and there were very few private matters.

But because of this, Pei Wan was even more melancholy, and could only watch helplessly as the young master of the Sheng family had so many contacts with his elder brother.

Recently, Pei resigned from the Xiangfang and went to the Xiangfang more frequently. In the end, he even brought the young son of the Sheng family to the Xiangfang.

How can Pei Wan sit still...
