Chapter 1247 It Feels Like Raising a White-Eyed Wolf

Zhao Yuanjing smiled and said: "Emperor Grandma, everyone has their own ambitions. You think living in the palace is comfortable, but Zhou Yizhi may not think so. She is still very young, why do you want her to waste the remaining decades in the palace?"

The Queen Mother was sulking.

She has always been opposed to Zhou Yizhi leaving the palace.

After all, she was the late emperor's concubine. How could she be so shameless when she went out to show off her swords and guns?

I thought the emperor would not refute her over such a trivial matter.

But who would have thought that the queen was going to get involved and just persuaded the emperor to issue the imperial edict and send the person out.

The events before and after this are all rubbing sand into the eyes of the Empress Dowager.

It's amazing that she can endure it.

Today she went out of her way to start a fight with the emperor, originally thinking that the emperor would have to make some concessions.

Unexpectedly, he not only refused to give in, but also refuted every word she said.

How could the Empress Dowager not be angry?

But she could only be angry on her own.

After all, her influence has been almost eliminated, both in the former dynasty and in the harem.

She felt like she had a white-eyed wolf.

Immediately his face turned blue with anger and his whole body was shaking.

Although Zhao Yuanjing has a strong attitude, he still has feelings for this grandmother after all.

He went over to hold her arm, his voice was gentle, and he said with a smile: "Grandma, don't worry about being alone in the palace. Don't you still have me and my little uncle? I will visit you more in the future."

"You are the emperor. Even if you are busy, you will not see anyone for half a month." The Empress Dowager said gloomily, "If the Ai family is counting on you, it is better to suffocate yourself to death early."

Zhao Yuanjing smiled and said: "Why is this? If you are bored, just ask someone to pick up Yan'er and the little girls. Who dares not to allow you to pick them up?"

The Empress Dowager remained silent.

Although she has many grievances against the queen, there is nothing to say about this.

Every time she asked someone to pick up Yan'er and the princesses, the queen rarely stopped her.

But these are far from enough.

Even if you take it, don't you still have to send it back?

Zhao Yuanjing added: "Actually, the Queen has already thought of this matter. When I sent Zhou Yizhi out, the Queen tried to dissuade me."

"She? The Ai family doesn't believe it."

"She said that now the only person beside the imperial grandmother is Zhou Yizhi, who can still chat with her and relieve her boredom. If she sends the person away, it would be really lonely for the imperial grandmother to be left alone."

The Empress Dowager said coldly: "If she really said this, she would have some conscience."

"Not only that." Zhao Yuanjing smiled, "She also proposed to choose a gentle and lovely girl from the side branch of the clan to stay with the imperial grandmother for a while."

The Queen Mother was a little surprised: "Really?"

"It's not false at all." Zhao Yuanjing smiled.

Zhao Shu said: "Queen Mother, this is true. Many clans and noble families have received the news, and they want to select the most considerate girl in the family and send it to the palace."

Zhao Yuanjing continued: "The Queen will personally select the most suitable girl for you, Grandmother."

The Empress Dowager snorted: "How could she know what the Ai family was thinking."

"Royal Grandmother, no matter what, this is the Queen's filial piety." Zhao Yuanjing said with a smile, "I will tell her to ask him to pick two more, and it will be up to you to decide then, okay?"

"If you are not picky, will the Ai family care about such a trivial matter?" The Queen Mother said coldly, "Don't think that if she pleases the Ai family, the Ai family will change their view of her."

Zhao Shu said, "Queen Mother, it's almost done."
