Chapter 1246: Marrying a Wife and Forgetting the Mother
Zhao Yuanjing didn't care at all what happened to Jiang Ran.
If it weren't for the sake of the Empress Dowager, she would have been killed long ago, regardless of her reputation.
The Queen Mother was silent for a moment and said, "The emperor doesn't care about Ran'er, but she is a relative of the Ai family."
"So, I will spare her life. But guilty means guilty. Death penalty can be spared, but living crime cannot be escaped." Zhao Yuanjing had a smile on his face, but his eyes were cold, "The queen manages the harem, and I think what she did is right."
The Empress Dowager sneered: "Sure enough, I have forgotten my mother after marrying my wife."
"My grandson's mother is gone a long time ago."
"You!" The Queen Mother shook her body angrily.
Zhao Shu came over to help her and couldn't bear it when he saw the old mother's face full of sadness.
He advised: "Mother, you should take care of yourself. Now you are getting older. Yuan Jing is not a child anymore, why not let them make their own decisions. Isn't it okay for you, the old man, to enjoy your grandson in the palace with peace of mind?" not good?"
"Trying with your grandson?" The Empress Dowager said coldly, "The Queen is guarding the Ai family as if she were guarding against thieves. Can she be willing to let me take a look at the child?"
Zhao Yuanjing frowned: "The words of the Imperial Grandmother are heart-breaking. The time Yan'er lived in Ci'an Palace is no less than that in Fengyi Palace. Do you still think it's too little?"
"If you want the Ai family to do nothing, that's fine. From now on, we can raise Yan'er in Ci'an Palace."
"No." Zhao Yuanjing refused.
"Now that you are such an imperial heir, you have been staying with someone like the queen. The Ai family is afraid that she will teach the child bad things!" said the Queen Mother, "Yan'er is naturally smart and should have been educated early. But the Ai family listens Said, the queen encourages the children to play around all day long. How can this be done? "
"Yan'er is only three years old, still young."
"Yan'er is not a child of an ordinary family, he is the eldest son of the legitimate emperor!" The Empress Dowager began to pound the table again, "The eldest son is the legitimate son. Do you know how rare this is? Yan'er is a born good child, and the Ai family will never Allow anyone to waste him!"
"Then, let's talk about it in two years." Zhao Yuanjing was obviously perfunctory, "When he is officially enlightened at the age of five, if there is really no progress, let the imperial grandmother teach him. He is still young now, so he still stays with his mother. a little better."
The Queen Mother had nothing to say.
After arguing for a long time, none of the demands were met.
She was depressed for a moment and then said: "You neither let the Ai family take care of things nor let Ran'er accompany the Ai family. You also don't allow the Ai family to educate Yan'er. And you said you are not going to force the Ai family to death!"
Zhao Yuanjing said: "Besides these few things, you have many other things to do."
"What else can happen? Now there is no one around the Ai family who can talk! There is only one Zhi'er left, but the queen tried her best to get it away! She is sincerely fighting against the Ai family and will not let Ai'er Family is better off!" The Queen Mother thought more and more about her tone.
She didn't know what evil she had done in her previous life, and when she got old, a little girl came to subdue her.
Zhao Yuanjing said: "The Imperial Grandmother has misunderstood the Queen. Regarding Zhou Yizhi, I personally promised her when King Pingcheng rebelled. At that time, it was also to protect the Imperial Grandmother. Could it be that the Imperial Grandmother has forgotten it?"
Of course the Queen Mother will not forget it.
But times have changed.
"Zhi'er is just a girl. You insist on sending her to the army. It's just nonsense." She frowned, "Let her stay in the palace peacefully and talk and play chess with the Ai family. Isn't it right? Not quiet and noble?”
