Chapter 2106 Don’t Blame Her

When Zhao Yuanjing heard that it was Yun Dai's letter, he immediately put down the map, took the letter and opened it.

As he watched, his brows furrowed.

Finally, he put down the letter and stood up, his expression heavy.

Ming Xiuwen and other generals didn't know what the letter said to make the emperor behave like this.

Xu Hu said softly: "The Empress Dowager has passed away."

Everyone was shocked and stood up one after another.

Ming Xiuwen: "When did this happen?"

"On the twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month," Xu Hu said, "Because the grain and grass transportation channels were destroyed several times, grain, grass and letters have never been delivered. That's why we got the letter here."

Ming Xiuwen said angrily: "Who dares to do this?"

Xu Hu paused and said, "It's the Empress Dowager herself."

"ah?"

"It's hard to explain in words." Xu Hu shook his head gently, "The Empress Dowager returned to the palace from the Summer Resort, and she had a lot of trouble with the Empress. I don't know much about the details. I can only find out after returning."

Although what he said was not specific, he could probably imagine it with just these few words.

Ming Xiuwen and Mingwei father and son looked at each other, feeling a little worried about Yun Dai.

The Empress Dowager and the Empress have always been at odds with each other. This time she came back while the Emperor was away in Kyoto. He must be looking for trouble with the queen.

It actually reached the point where the Empress Dowager passed away, which shows how much turmoil arose in Kyoto during this period.

I don’t know what happened to Yun Dai...

Both father and son were a little worried, but it was hard to ask anything.

In front of the emperor, they found out that the Empress Dowager had passed away, so they asked about the Queen's condition, which was not a good look.

Zhao Yuanjing walked to the tent door, lifted up the hem of his armor, knelt down, and kowtowed three times in the direction of Kyoto.

Ming Xiuwen and others also hurried over, followed the emperor, and kowtowed towards Kyoto together.

They couldn't go back to attend the funeral and had to kowtow a few times.

After kowtowing, Zhao Yuanjing stood up and silently returned to the table.

Everyone could see that he was not in a good mood.

Although the relationship between grandfather and grandson has been somewhat tense in recent years, they still have feelings after all.

Ming Xiuwen said: "Your Majesty, please go out first?"

"No need."

Zhao Yuanjing took a deep breath and said, "The Empress Dowager is old, and she is not in good health. Although her departure is a bit sudden, I had expected it. Let's continue to discuss the siege."

This battle was hard fought.

After surrounding Jade Bird City for four months, everyone lost their patience.

After several discussions, everyone unanimously decided to attack the city.

At present, this battle can only end if Jade Bird City is captured.

Delaying it like this is just a waste of money.

With such a huge army stationed here, how much food and grass will be consumed every day.

Zhao Yuanjing looked at the grain and grass shipped in batches and knew in his heart that these were all sent by Yun Dai who worked hard to spend money and consume transportation channels in the rear.

Over the years, she stayed up late drawing pictures and reading account books, spending so much energy on Yunji Store, and all the money she earned was spent on fighting.

How could he not feel distressed.

He also knew in his heart the temperament of the Empress Dowager. He didn't know how he was tormenting Yun Dai when he returned to the palace this time. Although Yun Dai is sometimes a little willful, if she hadn't been forced into a hurry, she wouldn't have confronted her face to face.

He could tell that the words in Yun Dai's letter were a bit cautious.

She was afraid that he would be angry.

But in fact, Zhao Yuanjing didn't blame her at all.

People always grow old and die.

Who can avoid it.

The Empress Dowager used to be reasonable, but in recent years she has become more and more unreasonable.

Zhao Yuanjing felt that even if it weren't for Yun Dai, one day the Empress Dowager would be mad at him to death.
