Prince Shan stood up and saluted the empress dowager, saying, "my son's ministers agree with what Prince Sheng said. It's very suitable for the Empress Dowager to lead the emperor to preside over the ceremony of offering sacrifices to the gods."

Hearing that the prime minister also came forward, he said, "I also agree with Prince Sheng's words, and ask the Empress Dowager to preside over the ceremony."

"I agree!" Many old ministers came forward to express their approval.

The Empress Dowager looked at the ministers and said with a smile, "even though we all think that the AI family should take the emperor to preside over the ceremony, well, the AI family will preside over the ceremony at the request of the Qing family."

"Empress Dowager thousand years old, thousand years old, thousand years old." All the ministers shout.

Prince Sheng saluted the Empress Dowager and said, "I think the Empress Dowager has something important to discuss with her courtiers. I'm just idle. It's inconvenient for me to listen to the government here, so my son's courtiers will leave."

"Sheng'er, don't leave." The Empress Dowager called to stop Dugu Sheng.

"What else can I do for my son?" Asked Dugu Sheng.

The Empress Dowager looked at the courtiers and said, "that's all for today's government affairs. Let's all step back and deal with the government affairs."

"Yes." All the courtiers answered and bowed out of the hall.

The Empress Dowager stood up, walked to Dugu Sheng and said with a smile, "you child, always come and go in a hurry. Go and sit in the warm Pavilion and talk to the Empress Dowager."

As the Empress Dowager said, she took Dugu Sheng and Ji Longyue to the warm Pavilion.

When they got to the warm Pavilion, the three sat down, and the palace people came in carrying a big box.

Mother Liu opened the box, took out some very delicate small boxes and put them on several cases in front of the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager opened the box one by one, showing several rare medicinal materials, as well as the round pearl and colorful tourmaline, which are all valuable things.

The Empress Dowager looked at Ji Longyue with a smile and said, "these are all medicinal materials from the western regions. Take them, and These two boxes are the best Nanzhu and this is the tourmaline. You can take them back to your mother... "

The Empress Dowager introduced everything to Ji Longyue. Ji Longyue said to the Empress Dowager with a smile, "empress dowager, every time I come here, you give me a lot of things. I can't put any more in my family. Keep these herbs by yourself. I'll write a list of medicinal meals for you later. You can nourish a little every day, which can prolong your life.

This tourmaline can help you sleep. You can put it in your pillow, and this Nanzhu can be ground into powder by the Royal doctors. It's very effective for removing age spots. "

Hearing this, the Empress Dowager laughed more kindly and said, "Aijia has your medicated diet, which is very well prepared. These herbs can't be used at all. Nanzhu can get rid of the old man's spots. Aijia has black spots on her hand. She is worried. Then Aijia will leave Nanzhu, and you can take the rest. Oh, yes, there are also some brocades and brocades, which are very rare. These are for you 。”

Ji Longyue looks at the colorful, colorful and lifelike brocade. Although she is not good at dressing, she is also attracted by the exquisite and wonderful brocade. She reaches out her hand to touch the soft brocade, and some of her hands are not suitable.

Seeing the love in Ji Longyue's eyes, the Empress Dowager said with a smile, "do you like it? This make-up satin is the best in Yun brocade. The craft is very exquisite and complex. There are very few products. The palace only pays tribute to the sad family and the queen."

As soon as Ji Longyue heard that only the Empress Dowager and the queen could use it, she drew back her hand and said with a smile, "Longyue doesn't have the chance to wear such exquisite make-up Satin when dealing with patients in the medical hall. You'd better keep it."

Dugu Sheng, who was silent, looked at the empress dowager, and his blue eyes were getting colder and colder.

"Empress mother, you'd better keep these for your own use. If you have children's ministers, nothing will be lost."

Seeing Dugu Sheng's gloomy face, the Empress Dowager laughed awkwardly and said, "Ai Jia knows that sheng'er is very capable. She will never be wronged by Long Yue. It's all AI Jia's intention to be her mother-in-law to give her these things."

When she saw that Dugu Sheng was still calm and silent, she sighed with a faint sigh, and a trace of loneliness appeared on her smiling face, saying, "you are more and more separated from AI Jia."

"We..."

Dugu Sheng raised his hand to stop Ji Longyue who wanted to speak. Looking at the empress dowager, he said, "empress dowager, you don't need to test any more for your son's minister?"

"Trial? Why does sheng'er say that the sad family is testing you? " The Empress Dowager frowned and looked at Dugu Sheng.

Ji Longyue also looks at Dugu Sheng in surprise, only to find that his face is extremely ugly.

Dugu Sheng raised his eyes, looked coldly at the empress dowager, and said, "empress dowager, you and the minister can make the decision on this small matter of the grand ceremony. There is no need to call the minister to come. The reason why you call Er Chen here is that you doubt that someone in the court suddenly recommended Er Chen to preside over the ceremony of offering sacrifices to gods. "

Hearing this, the Empress Dowager looked at Dugu Sheng in dismay, shook her head and said, "sheng'er, the AI family didn't try you out. The AI family never did."

"You really don't have to. In those days, he killed me. I didn't rebel against him. It was because I was grateful for your kindness and didn't want to make you sad. Now that the emperor is ill, a courtier suddenly mentions me, and you wonder if I inspired the courtiers behind his back to join the court for politics.

Do you want to take advantage of the emperor's illness to rebel and replace him.So, what you could have decided immediately, but you called my son here to test me. If I agreed to take the emperor to preside over the ceremony of offering sacrifices to the gods, what would you do? Do you want to kill me again for your own son? "

Dugu Sheng's voice was very cold, and his blue eyes were full of frost.

"No, no, it's not like that..."

The Empress Dowager shakes her hands in fear. Her eyes are full of tears. She looks at Dugu Sheng with sad eyes.

"Empress dowager, you should be very clear that if I want to sit in that position, your son will never stop me. However, I don't want to turn myself into a cruel and cold person who can kill even my relatives for the sake of imperial power.

Don't try me out any more. There is a limit to my patience. "

Then Dugu Sheng looked at the Empress Dowager fiercely, stood up and walked out.

Ji Longyue also stood up and wanted to follow, but she was caught by the tearful empress dowager: "Longyue, you don't go, you don't go, sheng'er, he misunderstood AI Jia, you listen to AI Jia..."

"Empress dowager, why don't I call him back..."

"Don't go, don't go. Sheng'er feels sorry for his family. He doesn't listen to them. They want to tell you the truth, the truth ten years ago..."

The Empress Dowager clung to Ji Longyue and wept.

Ji Longyue sees the Empress Dowager cry pitifully, she really is not good hard to shake a hand to leave.

"Well, I won't go, I won't go, empress dowager, don't cry..."

She sat beside the empress dowager, wiping the tears on her face and comforting her softly.

The Empress Dowager calmed down and looked at Ji Longyue with tears in her eyes. She said, "in fact, it's not surprising that sheng'er misunderstood AI Jia. At that time, it was the AI Jia who really felt sorry for him..."
