My country is dying

Chapter 73
"There are many insects in the forest, I was bitten by a mosquito." As he said that, Mi Le suddenly held the Queen Mother's hand stretching towards her neck, and at the same time took out the other hand to cover it.

The Empress Dowager's body froze invisibly, she raised her eyes to look at her, doubts were evident in her eyes.

Mi Le blinked his big watery eyes a few times, and soon, his eyes were determined, as if he had made a decision: "Mother, just now, I burned the tent of the regent king!"

"You burned the regent's tent?" Guan Tang was taken aback, his eyes full of surprise.

"Yeah!" Mi Le pursed his mouth when he said this, "He is so angry that he insulted my mother! It's fine for him to bully me on weekdays, but this time he actually talked about my mother! I really can't get angry... ...Empress, do you think he will kill me?"

Having said that, she looked panic-stricken.

The queen mother quickly realized, but there was a sneering smile on her lips: "Kill the emperor? He doesn't dare to do that."

"Really?" Mi Le's panicked face had a glimmer of joy.

The queen mother turned her head to look at her, her expression was a little more lazy: "It's natural, although the regent is arrogant and domineering, but the current time does not allow him to do so."

Having said that, she turned her eyes to Mi Le again, with a different color in her eyes, "How did he insult Aijia?"

Mi Le stretched out his hand to test the corners of his eyes that didn't have any tears. When he heard the words, he paused, and his face became extremely embarrassed: "It's better not to hear the mother, those words... are too ugly!"

The Empress Dowager's complexion suddenly sank, "Since he dares to speak, why don't the Ai family dare to listen, speak up!"

Her voice was stern, and Mi Le shuddered when she heard it, and looked at her in horror.

The queen mother just realized what happened, and immediately softened her voice, patted the back of Mi Le's hand and said, "Aijia is not attacking you, Your Majesty, are you not scared?"

Mi Le sobbed for a moment, and said slowly: "He said...that the mother does not follow women's morals..."

"Crack!" The Empress Dowager slapped the table next to her, and she sat up straight, "Hou Junli...it's too deceitful!"

Mi Le doesn't know what she thinks of this sentence. Anyway, the harem's involvement in politics is a matter of disobedience to women's morality. She is right to say so... But, does the Queen Mother look too angry?
While Guan Tang wasn't paying attention, she touched her eyes, and immediately burst into tears: "The queen mother... the regent is too scary, and even said that he will abolish the position of General Xiao... What should I do! I was promoted because of my cousin. Xiao Qi is the commander of the imperial army..."

"Your cousin?" The queen mother was taken aback, "What does this matter have to do with your cousin?"

"My mother doesn't know?" Mi Le asked in surprise, "Didn't it say that my cousin has a marriage contract with Xiao Qi?"

The queen mother immediately sneered: "What nonsense, your cousin prepared it for you, when will it be Xiao Qi's turn!"

Speaking of this, the Queen Mother turned her beautiful eyes, and immediately slowed down her voice: "Who did you listen to say this?"

"Xiao Qi." Mi Le took it for granted, "He often mentioned his cousin to me, and I thought they had a marriage contract!"

"So he thinks so." The queen mother paused, and suddenly looked at Mi Le, "You mean the regent is going to abolish Xiao Qi?"

"Yes, he said it himself!" Mi Le panicked, "Queen, what should I do!"

"Don't worry, since his regent wants to abolish Xiao Qi, the Ai family will want to protect him."

"Thank you mother!"

Mi Le immediately became happy, smiling through tears. When the Queen Mother turned around, she reached out and hugged the Queen Mother's waist, and rubbed her body: "The Queen Mother smells so good!"
