The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife

Chapter 288 The Empress Dowager's Shot (Two Updates)

The Tang family left, and Gu Chengfeng also left under the escort of Eunuch Qin.

Empress Dowager Zhuang took Gu Jiao back to Renshou Palace.

Gu Jiao was dressed in black, and she was digging into the cabinet and running away, making her whole body dirty.

Empress Dowager Zhuang took Gu Jiao to the bath of Renshou Palace to wash up. Although she knew that Gu Jiao did not like to be served by strangers, but the pool was too big and some things she had not used before, Empress Dowager Zhuang arranged for two clever little palace maids to serve her closely.

Gu Jiao soaked in the palace pool for the first time and felt strangely fresh.

Shu Ming's open hall, surrounded by golden pillars with dragons towering into the beams, the bath is located in the center, covered by veils on all sides, and the scene inside is looming.

Four candlesticks with branches and loose leaves were lit in the four corners outside the gauze curtain. From top to bottom, the candlesticks on each floor increased in turn.

There is no open fire in the gauze curtain, but very large night pearls are inlaid on the floor and the wall of the bath.

The pond is sprinkled with freshly picked petals, each exuding a fragrant fragrance.

Gu Jiao soaked her whole body under the petals, revealing only a small round head.

The palace maid knelt by the pool and said to her, "Miss, this servant will comb your hair for you."

"Hmm." Gu Jiao nodded, rarely rejecting the approach of strangers.

The palace maid took the wooden comb, dipped it in the fragrant essential oil, and let down the long hair that Gu Jiao had wrapped around her head.

Her movements were very gentle, as if she didn't dare to break one of Gu Jiao's hair.

Gu Jiao closed her eyes with enjoyment, she didn't brush her hair so lightly.

The hair was smooth and shiny, and then the maid took the soap pancreas to clean for Gu Jiao. This soap pancreas is not the ordinary saponin that is used in the market. It has a lot of spices added to make it a taste that ordinary people can't use. .

It was so comfortable that Gu Jiao almost fell asleep.

It was more than half an hour after Gu Jiao finished washing, and she was busy catching the murderer. The food she ate at night had already been digested, and her stomach was hungry.

She came out wearing a lavender ice silk nightgown. At first glance, this nightgown was not Empress Dowager Zhuang's nightgown, it was suitable for her age.

Empress Dowager Zhuang looked at her in a trance as she walked out of the candlelight surrounded by palace maids.

"Auntie." Gu Jiao stepped forward.

Empress Dowager Zhuang returned to her senses and pointed to the stool beside her: "Sit down and have something to eat."

Gu Jiao was just hungry.

When I saw a table full of food, I almost couldn't hold back my saliva.

She blinked and sat down: "Auntie,

How do you know I'm hungry? "

Empress Dowager Zhuang snorted: "Humph, with your little belly, is it hard to guess?"

Gu Jiao bent her lips happily, picked up chopsticks, and had a delicious meal.

Dining in the palace is very disciplined. On weekdays, there is a special person who prepares the dishes, what to eat, and only a few mouthfuls of each dish. Empress Dowager Zhuang has strictly followed the rules for so many years.

But when Gu Jiao was here, she still removed the palace servants who served the meal.

This is something Gu Jiao doesn't know.

"Are you full?" Queen Mother Zhuang asked Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao put down her chopsticks and burped a little: "I'm full."

The Empress Dowager Zhuang gave another cup of hawthorn tea for digestion and tranquility.

Holding the flower tea, Gu Jiao asked, "By the way, auntie, why did you suddenly leave the palace?"

Empress Dowager Zhuang snorted: "Can Ai's go for a walk around?"

Gu Jiao snorted: "Does my aunt want to play cards?"

Empress Dowager Zhuang's brows twitched: "Nonsense! How could Aijia be... going to play cards?"

Aijia obviously just came back from playing cards!

Empress Dowager Zhuang hurriedly removed the spear from herself: "You are too embarrassed to ask how Aijia left the palace, and Aijia also asks you, what happened? What did you go to Tang Mansion for in the middle of the night?"

Gu Jiao glanced at her aunt, lowered her head, and matched her fingers: "Catch the murderer."

Empress Dowager Zhuang took a deep breath: "What murderer did you catch and go to the Marshal's Mansion?"

Gu Jiao said, "Someone wants to kill Tang Ming and put the blame on Gu Changqing."

Empress Dowager Tang Mingzhuang knew him. She was Tang Yueshan's nephew. She was quite handsome.

Most of the memories that Empress Dowager Zhuang recovered were related to Gu Jiao and Xiao Jingkong. Gu Changqing came too rarely, and she didn't remember much at once.

Seeing Empress Dowager Zhuang's bewildered look, Gu Jiao thought about it and said, "It was the first time he played cards, and he won a lot of money from his aunt."

Empress Dowager Zhuang's face darkened.

There is a picture.

This matter is complicated. In fact, Empress Dowager Zhuang heard a little bit of wind. After all, the movement in the barracks was so loud, how could she not know that Tang Ming's arm was cut off by a commander of the Marquis of Ding'an?

But she, like all the soldiers, believed that the captain was fighting for the original Gu family army.

The Marquis of Ding'an was the emperor's power, so naturally she couldn't stand up for the other party, not to mention the fact that the other party had done too much.

Tang Ming's punishment was unfair, but his arm was not cut off.

He hurt Tang Ming badly in the name of martial arts, no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't be kind.

"It's not for the Gu Jiajun." Gu Jiao hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth, "Tang Ming bullied Ayan, he took Ayan and locked him up... We searched for half the night before we found it. It was Gu Changqing who found it. His, just one step away..."

Just what.

Gu Jiao didn't say anything.

Who is Queen Mother Ke Zhuang?

She has eaten more salt than any other rice.

Can she not guess what happened?

Empress Dowager Zhuang had only one request for Gu Yan, and that was to live.

It can be seen that this child is fragile, and this kind of thing is no less than half his life.

Empress Dowager Zhuang's face sank: "Is only one arm broken?"

Gu Jiao blinked: "Also... I taught him a lesson, but Tang Yueshan found out, so he wanted to arrest me."

Empress Dowager Zhuang expressed doubts: "Just to arrest you for this? I think he wants to kill you at all."

That's because I also heard his secret, but it's not bad. Tang Yueshan won't let her go even if he hears the secret.

This night, Gu Jiao and Queen Mother Zhuang chatted a lot. Gu Jiao is not a person who is good at communicating with people. She doesn't talk much, and she usually doesn't bother to speak when she knows something.

But auntie is such a kind of ability, she can let her down the line of defense and self-esteem awkward, and also be a little trumpeter.

When Eunuch Qin returned to Renshou Palace, Gu Jiao had already fallen asleep on Empress Dowager Zhuang's phoenix bed.

Her little face was facing the Empress Dowager Zhuang, her cheeks were pressed to the point of flesh, her mouth was slightly open, and crystal saliva flowed out.

Empress Dowager Zhuang wiped her, then gently pulled the quilt to cover her, picked up one of her hands, and sighed, "It's broken again."

"The Queen Mother." Eunuch Qin bowed in a low voice, "I have been delivered."

Empress Dowager Zhuang hummed lightly.

Eunuch Qin brought the medicine for golden sore and handed it to Empress Dowager Zhuang.

Empress Dowager Zhuang's fingertips stuck a little, and she rubbed the medicine on Gu Jiao's palm where the reins were frayed: "Go and deliver a message to Bishui Hutong, tell that boy not to wait, Jiaojiao will rest at Ai's house tonight. already."

"Hmm~" Gu Jiao was so hot that she kicked off the quilt dissatisfied in her sleep.

Empress Dowager Zhuang carefully covered her.

Eunuch Qin suddenly laughed.

"What are you laughing at?" Empress Dowager Zhuang asked in a deep voice.

Eunuch Qin said happily: "I haven't seen the empress dowager so human for a long time. It seems that you lost your memory and recovered many things that were lost in the past."

"What was lost back then?" Empress Dowager Zhuang murmured.

Eunuch Qin smiled and said, "Yes, the last time you were so human was when Princess Ning An was by your side."

Speaking of Princess Ning'an, Empress Dowager Zhuang's expression turned cold.

Eunuch Qin realized that he had said something wrong, so he hurriedly lowered his head: "The servant made a blunder."

Empress Dowager Zhuang lowered her eyes, stroked Gu Jiao's fingers, and said lightly, "Go down."

Eunuch Qin responded: "Yes, the servant will go to Bishui Hutong."

"Wait." Empress Dowager Zhuang stopped him.

Qin Gonggong turned around and said, "What else is there to order from the Queen Mother?"

Empress Dowager Zhuang said, "Ai's family remembers that there are some masks in the storeroom from tribute?"

Qin Gong said: "Yes, does the queen mother want a mask?"

Empress Dowager Zhuang looked at Gu Jiao, who was asleep, and said, "Bring it all. For the princess..."

Eunuch Qin was shocked.

Empress Dowager Zhuang paused: "Choose for Jiaojiao, tomorrow morning."

Eunuch Qin breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes." �br /\u003e

But he said that after Tang Yueshan bid farewell to the queen mother, he immediately went to arrest Gu Changqing, but was told that Gu Changqing had been in the military camp all the time.

Tang Yueshan hurried back to the barracks and looked at Gu Changqing who was waiting quietly outside the torture chamber that had just been extinguished. Gu Changqing was still wearing handcuffs and shackles, and there was no sign of escaping.

"You...you didn't escape?"

Gu Changqing said indifferently: "I've been in the military camp, I don't know where Master Tang's words come from?"

"Impossible! This commander has searched the military camp! You are obviously not here! You..." Tang Yueshan suddenly thought of something, his eyes trembled, "You are in the Eighteen Bronze Man formation!"

That was the only place in the barracks that couldn't be found, because if you go in, you will die. Tang Ming can only break through the twelve levels, not to mention the rest of the soldiers.

Gu Changqing only needs to hide behind a few levels to ensure that no one can find him!

Cunning, so cunning!

But Tang Yueshan couldn't figure out why Gu Changqing did this.

If he escaped and killed Tang Ming, it would be justified, but he didn't go, instead, other assassins went.

So what is he hiding in there? Play hide and seek?

Gu Changqing said solemnly: "I was afraid that the fire would be too big and it would burn me to death, so I found a safe place to hide."

Tang Yueshan: "..."

No matter how bad Tang Yueshan thought this reason, it would not change the fact that Gu Changqing did not escape from the military camp.

Tang Yueshan was full of anger, but he had nowhere to vent.

He gritted his teeth and said coldly, "Humph! What if you didn't escape this time? After three days, you will still be executed!"

In Gu Jiao's dream, Tang Yueshan let Gu Changqing go because Gu Chengfeng took the blame.

But now, there is no such thing as Gu Chengfeng taking the blame. Three days later, Gu Changqing still faces execution.

Originally, Gu Chengfeng and Gu Jiao thought that if they caught the real murderer who killed Tang Ming, they would be able to find out the mastermind behind the fake Feishhuang that day and elucidate the truth of Gu Changqing's escape from prison.

Who would have expected the other party to be so cunning, he didn't show up at all, but let Master Tang move his hand.

They wanted to remind Tang Yueshan, hey, your eldest brother is not just going to kill that evil seed, he also conspired with others to kill you.

But what position do they take?

Is it Gu Changqing's younger brother and sister, or an assassin who has been "executed" by the Queen Mother?

Neither of them can win the trust of Tang Yueshan.

This kind of thing must be said by someone who Tang Yueshan believes in.

And Tang Yueshan was quite suspicious, as evidenced by his suspicion that Mrs. Tang would kill Tang Ming.

The next day, Eunuch Qin came to the Marshal's Mansion.

"The Empress Dowager summoned Master Tang, and asked Master Tang to enter the palace with me immediately."

Tang Yueshan entered the palace with Eunuch Qin.

He was a foreigner and was not allowed to enter the harem. Empress Dowager Zhuang met him in the side hall of the Jinluan Palace.

Empress Dowager Zhuang sat on the pinewood chair above the steps, wearing a black embroidered golden phoenix robe, her expression was calm and her aura was compelling.

Tang Yueshan knelt down and bowed his hands in a salute: "Chen, meet the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is a thousand years old!"

"Be flat," said Empress Dowager Zhuang.

"Empress Dowager Xie." Tang Yueshan stood up without looking sideways.

"Give a seat." Empress Dowager Zhuang ordered Eunuch Qin.

Eunuch Qin brought the little eunuch and brought an official hat chair for Tang Yueshan, and placed it in the center of the hall, facing the empress dowager.

Rao is sitting face to face with the queen mother, the atmosphere is a bit strange, but this is a kind of honor, and Tang Yueshan still enjoys it.

Empress Dowager Zhuang said without anger and arrogance: "You are the humerus minister of Ai's family. Ai's family believes in you, so I won't go around in circles with you. Ai's family called you here today for Gu Duwei's business."

When Tang Yueshan heard the words, his expression was a meal.

Gu Changqing's matter was very troublesome, and the palace should have heard of it long ago, but I didn't expect the Queen Mother to ask about it.

Empress Dowager Zhuang gave Eunuch Qin a wink.

Qin Gonggong understood and walked forward with a tray in which was a carved dagger: "Master Tang, please take a look."

Tang Yueshan picked up the dagger and looked at it. The scabbard was nothing special, but when he pulled out the blade, he saw a word engraved on the place where the hilt and the blade meet: Qing.

He vaguely guessed whose dagger it was, but didn't understand why it was in the hands of the Queen Mother, he frowned strangely: "This is..."

Mrs. Zhuang said without changing her face: "I found it on the two assassins after dealing with them last night."

Tang Yueshan said: "They are Gu Changqing's people? The minister knows it is them!"

Empress Dowager Zhuang said coldly: "You have been marching and fighting for so many years, and you can't even see such a clumsy frame and blame! It's really Gu Changqing's person, will he bring Gu Changqing's belongings to commit crimes?"

Tang Yueshan choked.

If Gu Changqing himself went to assassinate him, he might accidentally drop objects at the scene, but if someone else took his belongings, wouldn't that be planted?

Empress Dowager Zhuang continued: "Don't look at it, Ai's family has already confirmed with the people in Ding'an Hou's mansion, and this is Gu Duwei's dagger. Also, Ai's family heard that the water in the barracks' execution room almost burned Gu Du to death last night. Captain."

Tang Yueshan put the dagger back into the tray, and Eunuch Qin stepped aside with the tray.

Tang Yueshan replied, "That's right, but he hid in the Eighteen Bronze Man Formation and was unscathed."

Empress Dowager Zhuang looked cold and bright: "Is it worth him to hide in the formation in a mere fire? According to Ai's family, it is clear that someone wants to force him out."

"Then why didn't he capture the other party?" Tang Yueshan asked.

He had reason to be so skeptical.

If Gu Changqing can beat the opponent, then there is no need to hide.

But if Gu Changqing can't beat the opponent, then if he can break through the formation, the opponent can break in, and he can still be forced out.

Empress Dowager Zhuang said calmly: "If the other party bites back and says that he is here to save him and is his accomplice, what should he do? Do you believe in him or the assassin?"

Naturally... it's the letter that assassin.

Hatred has blinded Tang Yueshan's eyes, and he will not believe any evidence in Gu Changqing's favor.

Tang Yueshan was stunned and speechless.

Empress Dowager Zhuang sighed slowly: "Aijia knows that you really want to execute Gu Duwei."

Tang Yueshan clenched his fists: "Don't he deserve to die? He killed Ming'er!"

Empress Dowager Zhuang stared coldly and slapped the table: "But your tomorrow has also hurt others!"

The powerful aura came from the mountains and the seas, and even a superb master like Tang Yueshan almost surrendered to the Queen Mother's Fengwei!

Tang Yueshan's momentum was weaker, but he was still full of unwillingness: "Why did the queen mother say this?"

"Bring it up!"

As soon as Empress Dowager Zhuang finished speaking, two powerful eunuchs walked in with a unkempt young strong man.

Tang Yueshan looked at it for a long time before recognizing the other party: "You...Aren't you tomorrow's long follower? The one called...Deng Ge'er?"

Brother Deng thumped and knelt down: "The Empress Dowager spares your life--Sir, spare your life-"

Tang Yueshan said with a sullen face: "Where have you been these days? This commander is looking for you up and down!"

Brother Deng cried in fear: "I...I...I heard that after the young master was cut off by Gu Duwei...I ran away..."

Tang Yueshan frowned and said, "Why did you run? You didn't hurt people!"

"I...I..." Deng Ge'er shivered and didn't dare to say, and didn't dare not to say, "I...I'm afraid that Gu Duwei will also come to me to seek revenge..."

The more Tang Yueshan listened, the more confused he became, and he said impatiently, "What are you? Is he looking for revenge on you?"

Brother Deng hugged his head and curled up into a ball in fright: "It's me...I was the one who took Gu Xiaogong out of the carriage...but I listened to the young master's instructions...Can't blame me..."

Tang Yueshan said irritably: "Dazed Young Master Gu? What are you talking about in a mess?"

Brother Deng cried, "Young master... Young master kidnapped Young Master Gu... He wanted to do something wrong with Young Master Gu... Yes... It was Duwei Gu who arrived in time..."

boom--

Tang Yueshan only felt a thunderbolt hit his heart!

He was stunned in disbelief for a while, then suddenly raised his foot and kicked Deng'er fiercely out: "You bastard! Who allowed you to slander Ming'er!"

Empress Dowager Zhuang frowned.

Eunuch Qin hurriedly said: "Master Tang, don't be presumptuous in front of the Queen Mother!"

Tang Yueshan clenched his fist and resisted the urge to walk over and step on his brain.

Empress Dowager Zhuang waved her hand.

The two little eunuchs dragged Deng Geer down.

Tang Yueshan was trembling all over, and his eyes were red: "No... He won't tomorrow... He is such an upright person... How could he do such a dirty thing?"

Empress Dowager Zhuang couldn't hold back, she rolled her eyes, and soon she coughed lightly and said in a low voice: "You know that the young master of Ding'an Hou's Mansion has a heart attack, he was kidnapped and bullied by Ming'er, he was stimulated and had a heart attack. , I haven't woken up yet! Your tomorrow is just missing an arm, and you want the murderer's life. The younger brother lost half of his life, how could he not want to kill Tang Ming! Tang Yueshan, you are a man , If it were you, would you be able to swallow this breath?!"

Tang Yueshan's heart was hit hard, and he stumbled.

When things have progressed here, in fact, it is almost possible to exonerate Gu Changqing, but this incident will always be a thorn in Tang Yueshan's heart.

To Tang Ming, he would be angry, but he would still blame Gu Changqing.

Empress Dowager Zhuang pressed her eyebrows and said, "Do you know what Aijia found in the assassin's clothes last night?"

"What?" Tang Yueshan asked blankly.

Obviously, the blow was too great, and there was not much interest in the assassin.

Empress Dowager Zhuang took out the medicine powder that Gu Jiao had prepared early in the morning, and said without changing her face: "The Ai family has discovered a drug that can disturb people's minds and make people do things that are against the norm. The family thinks that tomorrow may have been plotted by someone."

Tang Yueshan suddenly raised his head!

Fool people, the queen mother is a professional.

Empress Dowager Zhuang said with a sad face: "Ai's family has seen Ming'er's child. Although he is a little arrogant, he is not a bad-hearted person. Although Ai's family has no evidence, Ai's family thinks that they took the drug to the marshal last night. The manor, probably just wanted to put it in Ming'er's medicine. The medicine was so skillful, Aijia thought, would it have been given to Ming'er before? Changsui found it."

This speculation is simply a bunch of bright sunshine after a thunderbolt.

When a man is pushed into the quagmire, he doesn't have to go back to his original attic, he just has to pull him back to the ground, and he accepts the status quo gratefully.

Tang Yueshan seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw, and he would never fall into the quagmire again: "Is it medicine? Medicine? Medicine... That's right! It must be medicine! How could such a good child like tomorrow do such a thing? ? He was drugged!"

Empress Dowager Zhuang then flickered: "Ai's family asked someone to take Gu Duwei's water bladder this morning, but it turned out that this drug was also put into his water."

Tang Yueshan looked startled.

Empress Dowager Zhuang sighed: "Well, Duwei Gu has the heart to kill Ming'er, but Duwei Gu is not stupid enough to attack Ming'er in public. After all, he is just a half-brother. , it's not his lifeblood, can he work so hard for him?"

Tang Yueshan felt that what the Queen Mother said was very reasonable!

He asked hesitantly, "So he... was also drugged?"

Empress Dowager Zhuang looked at him lightly: "That's right."

Gu Changqing and Tang Ming were established at the same time. If Tang Yueshan wants to believe in one, he must also believe in the other.

Will Tang Yueshan believe it?

The answer is yes.

He would rather accept that Gu Changqing is not the real murderer than suspect that his son is a pervert.

At this point, all Tang Ming's hatred for Gu Changqing was gone, he only hated the mastermind behind the scenes!

He thundered and angered: "Who is it? Who instigated the relationship between the Marshal's Mansion and the Ding'an Hou's Mansion?"

Empress Dowager Zhuang pinched her brows, which were not painful, and sighed: "Aijia has no clue. Last night, the murder was too fast, and there was no time for interrogation. It's also your fault for not explaining clearly what happened, if it weren't for Qin The father-in-law found these things when he was digging a pit to bury the corpse, and the Aijia can't even find these clues right now!"

Tang Yueshan also regretted it for a while, yes, why didn't he tell the queen mother more? The queen mother found so many clues with only two corpses. If she persuaded the queen mother to stay alive, wouldn't she have already asked the culprit behind the scenes?

What does it mean to be sold and pay for the number of people, that's all.

Empress Dowager Zhuang saw that she was almost flickering, and she could stop flickering for a few more words: "Okay, Aijia has already said what should be said, you can decide what to do, if you really want to kill Gu Duwei , Aijia will not stop you. Zuo is only the emperor's person, and it is not a pity to kill."

It's not a pity, but... As soon as he thought that doing this would be in the hands of those behind the scenes, Tang Yueshan said that he couldn't stand this grievance!

If he harmed his future like this, how could he let the other party succeed?

Is he stupid?

Hehe, not only will he not kill Gu Changqing, but when the limelight passes, he will promote Gu Changqing!

He wants to show the people behind the scenes that he, Tang Yueshan, is not a fool! -

After the news that Gu Changqing was about to be executed came out, the old marquis didn't sleep a night.

It was not easy until dawn, and he hurried to the palace to ask to see the emperor without having breakfast.

The emperor also knew why he came.

The emperor was also very melancholy.

This kind of thing happened in any other place, he might have a way, but it was in the military camp.

As long as they act strictly according to military regulations, even the emperor and the empress dowager are not allowed to interfere privately.

Tang Yueshan was not arrested for Gu Changqing's crime of breaking Tang Ming's arm, but that he escaped from prison in the middle of the night and became a deserter.

This is a capital crime, regardless of rank.

Not to mention he also killed two innocent soldiers.

"Your Majesty! The grandson of this minister is wronged! There must be something else hidden in this matter!"

Gu Changqing didn't say a word to the old marquis. The old marquis neither knew that assassins had come, nor did he know that Gu Changqing went to visit Gu Yan.

But the old man believed that Gu Changqing would not kill innocent people indiscriminately, nor would he be a deserter.

The emperor sighed: "Why don't you want to save him? But all the evidence is against him, and he himself admitted it."

This is the key, Gu Changqing admitted that he had escaped from prison.

Even if he is the emperor, he can't mess around!

The emperor gritted his teeth: "It really doesn't work, I... allow you to take the dead man to the robbery field!"

It's just that, Gu Changqing can no longer live under the sun from now on.

Can no longer inherit Houfu.

How is this different from strangling someone?

The old man fell to the ground slumped.

Suddenly, Eunuch Wei walked in in a hurry: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Something big! Gu Duwei...he...he..."

The old man's face turned pale: "What happened to Changqing?"

Eunuch Wei smiled: "He has been acquitted!"

emperor:"……"

Old Houye: "..."-

However, it was said that Empress Dowager Zhuang couldn't wait to return to Renshou Palace after finishing today's deceitful career.

"Jiaojiao, it's done! Where's Aijia's sugar-sweetened eggs?"

Eunuch Qin, who was behind Empress Dowager Zhuang, almost stumbled and fell down!

Have you been fooling around for a whole morning, just for a bowl of sugar-sweetened eggs?

You are the queen mother, can you still make some progress?

"It's done." Gu Jiao bent her lips and came out from the small kitchen with a bowl of sugar water eggs.

Empress Dowager Zhuang rubbed her hands together and looked at her sugar water eggs with anticipation.

Jiaojiao said that she will put two more spoons of sugar and two more eggs!

Two spoons of sugar, can you imagine it!

Empress Dowager Zhuang looked at the big sea bowl that Gu Jiao had placed on the table.

In just a second, her face darkened.

Empress Dowager Zhuang: "What about two more spoonfuls of sugar?"

Gu Jiao: "I let it go."

Just put two more bowls of water.

Empress Dowager Zhuang: "Then, what about the extra two eggs?"

Gu Jiao: "Also let it go."

It's just that Xiao Mimi's quail eggs are placed, or the kind with the egg yolk removed.

Empress Dowager Zhuang cried out in her heart—

Aggrieved family.

Aijia do not say!

Eunuch Qin rarely saw the queen mother slumped, so he couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.

Empress Dowager Zhuang's death stare suddenly hit him!

Eunuch Qin shivered all over, the fear of being dominated by the Empress Dowager Zhuang in the past hit his heart, and he knelt down with a soft leg: "The Empress Dowager forgives!"

Empress Dowager Zhuang narrowed her eyes dangerously.

Just when Eunuch Qin thought that he was going to die, Empress Dowager Zhuang suddenly raised her hand, pointed at Eunuch Qin, and said to Gu Jiao, "Eunuch Qin has worked hard today, and Jiaojiao will make him a bowl."

When Eunuch Qin heard this, he simply wondered if he was frightened.

The queen mother said he worked hard?

And let Miss Gu cook for him to make sugar water eggs for him?

Eunuch Qin hurriedly kowtowed: "The slaves dare not! The slaves dare not!"

Empress Dowager Zhuang said sadly, "No, you dare."

A quarter of an hour later, Gu Jiao brought another bowl of eggs in sugar water. The color of this bowl was much richer, and the aroma of brown sugar could be smelled from afar.

Empress Dowager Zhuang: "You and Aijia eat together."

Eunuch Qin was so frightened that he knelt down!

"Eunuch Qin, let's eat." Gu Jiao said with a smile.

Qin Gonggong glanced at the queen mother tremblingly, and felt that if he ate it, he would die, and if he didn't eat it, he would die, so he had to sit down.

Empress Dowager Zhuang said solemnly, "Jiaojiao."

"Um?"

"Someone called you outside."

"yes?"

Empress Dowager Zhuang nodded: "In the imperial garden!"

"Oh." Gu Jiao raised her eyebrows and walked out.

As soon as she left, Empress Dowager Zhuang snatched Eunuch Qin's sugar-sweetened eggs!

Eunuch Qin with a confused look: "..."

Empress Dowager: Woo, Aijia is so wronged today, I need a monthly ticket to comfort me!
