Chapter 186 Biased

The Queen Mother was in a good mood and ate one more bowl of rice than usual.

Nanny An sighed in her heart. The Queen Mother had only two sons, but the Queen Mother liked Emperor Jing the most, who looked gentle and elegant. In front of the Queen Mother, Emperor Jing seemed to have no temper, and asked the Queen Mother to make all the decisions on trivial matters. Even when he married later, he had to ask the Queen Mother about all the affairs of the mansion.

The Queen Mother had a strong desire for control. What Emperor Jing did greatly pleased the Queen Mother, which made her feel a great sense of accomplishment and a feeling of being deeply needed and relied on.

The Regent was different. He was taciturn and hated to cause trouble to others the most. He did everything by himself, big or small, and never bothered the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother wanted to intervene and make his decision, but was rejected by the Regent. Or she would stand there expressionlessly, listening to the Queen Mother's scolding, not arguing, but not taking it to heart, and doing her own thing.

The Queen Mother hated the Regent's disobedience, and she didn't like the feeling of losing control.

Her heart was biased towards Emperor Jing.

The bigger reason is that Emperor Jing ascended the throne, which gave the Queen Mother more say in government affairs.

Therefore, the Queen Mother often said to the late Emperor: "Your Majesty, the Great Zhou has gone through a war and is now in a peaceful and prosperous era. It does not need a hegemon who can unify the world. Instead, it needs a benevolent monarch who cares about the people, develops scholars, farmers, merchants and industrialists, and leads the Great Zhou to another peak. Ling'er is kind and righteous, and he will definitely be a wise monarch in the future. Even if I misjudge him, he has limited ability, but he can still maintain the status quo."

"Xuan'er is cold and cruel by nature, and has a deep mind. Such a character has always become a tyrant in history and eventually led to the destruction of the country. He is a god of war, brave and good at fighting. He is a weapon of the country. If he is placed at the border to guard, he can deter the other three countries and dare not invade the Great Zhou."

"Ling'er and Xuan'er are brothers, complementing each other, and they will definitely be able to govern the Great Zhou well."

The late Emperor was most optimistic about Ji Xuan, who was both civil and military, brave and resourceful. Ji Ling had no opinion, lacked blood, and was a woman's kindness. Compared with Ji Xuan, he is even more difficult to catch up with.

"Xuan'er, who I like, may be able to fulfill the ambition of our ancestors and make the four seas pay tribute to him and all nations come to pay tribute."

"Your Majesty, I have asked Xuan'er, he does not want to inherit the throne and wants to assist his brother. Please don't make things difficult for Xuan'er and make the two brothers quarrel."

The late emperor pretended to be angry and said, "Are you accusing me of alienating brothers?"

"I dare not."

The queen mother whispered something to the late emperor, and there was a harmonious laughter.

When Nanny An recalled this memory, she felt that the queen mother was biased to no end. Not only did she use Qi Min to make the regent give up the throne voluntarily, but she turned against him after the matter was accomplished and did not allow the regent to marry Qi Min. It is really her own fault that she has ended up like this.

Not only did she not reflect on herself, but she also wanted to cut the grass and root it out.

The family affection of the royal family is indeed vulnerable in the face of power.

Nanny An naturally did not dare to make irresponsible comments, and only dared to express her own opinions in her heart. She calmed down and handed the queen mother tea to rinse her mouth: "Do you want to go for a walk to digest the food?"

"Go for a walk." The queen mother resented Ji Xuan's viciousness, imprisoning her in the national temple, and asking Ji Ling to indulge in the way of immortality and ignore government affairs.

Now that Ji Xuan has been poisoned, it is obviously impossible to let Ji Ling govern the country again after his death.

She needs to choose a prince from the royal heirs to cultivate at this time.

As for who this person is, the queen mother has not decided yet.

When the queen mother walked out of the house, she saw Ji Wufeng in casual clothes, walking with Ji Lin.
