The queen mother was originally just a concubine in a small official's family, but she was lucky and gave birth to the prince not long after entering the palace.

What is even more unexpected is that the prince she gave birth to became the emperor.

So she also became the queen mother logically.

She was brought up by her aunt since she was a child, and her vision is so high.

She seems to be very powerful on weekdays, but every time she encounters an important event, she will be confused and unable to make up her mind.

as it is now.

Although the Queen Mother already knew that King Wuzhang was very suspicious, she didn't know what to do, so she could only ask Concubine Zhen to help her find a way.

Hua Qingqing had already thought of a way before she came, she said immediately.

"Now the inside and outside of the palace have been controlled by Ye Xiaowei.

According to my concubine, Wu Wang, the governor of Ye Xiaowei, should have been subdued by King Wu Zhang long ago. They are a nest of snakes and rats.

Including those ministers in the court, maybe they have already stood on the side of King Wu Zhang.

Now the only person we can count on is King Zhao.

King Zhao has military power in his hands, as long as he can come back, we still have a chance to turn things around. "

Queen Mother: "King Zhao is far away in the south of the mausoleum, how can we pass the news to him?"

Hua Qingqing: "You can go to General Xiaoqi Bian Ziming for help.

The concubine remembered that on the night when the saint was seriously ill, Bian Ziming was not among the ministers who followed King Wuzhang into the palace.

Presumably Bian Ziming did not fall for King Wu Zhang, he should be trustworthy. "

She said it so well that it sounded doable.

The queen mother couldn't think of a more comprehensive solution, so she accepted Hua Qingqing's proposal.

"Aijia will find a way to send the news to Bian Ziming."

Hua Qingqing reminded: "Be careful, don't be discovered by Ye Xiaowei's people, or you will startle the snake."

The Queen Mother nodded: "The Ai family understands."

Hua Qingqing put on her coir raincoat and bamboo hat, ready to leave.

Queen Mother: "Since you are innocent, you don't need to be grounded anymore. The Ai family ordered you to be released."

Hua Qingqing said.

"No, if you let go of the concubine rashly, it will definitely arouse Wu Wang's vigilance.

The most important thing you should do now is to visit the saint more, so as not to let people have the opportunity to attack the saint. "

The queen mother was startled: "You mean, King Wuzhang may attack the emperor again? Well, that is his father after all. Does he really dare to kill his father?"

Hua Qingqing said quietly.

"There is no turning back when you open the bow, since he has already made a move, it is impossible for him to give up halfway.

He's already walking on the edge of a cliff, and no matter how crazy he does in the future, I won't be surprised. "

After she finished speaking, she turned around, stepped over the threshold, and strode into the rain and fog.

The empress dowager sat there alone in a daze, not returning to her senses for a long time.

...

The arrival of spring rains heralds the beginning of spring plowing.

The farmers on Zhuangzi began to get busy.

Hua Manman finally received the letter from home sent by Li Ji.

In his letter, he said that he had won several victories in Lingnan, and his morale was greatly boosted. If this trend continues, he will be able to wipe out the rebels in a short time, and then he will be able to return to the dynasty.

He also said that everything is fine in Lingnan and he doesn't lack anything, which made Manman feel at ease.

At the end of the letter, he repeatedly emphasized that he really missed Manman and the child, and told Manman to write back to him no matter what.

Hua Manman read the letter back and forth many times, until she could almost memorize the letter, she put down the letter paper, picked up the brush, and began to write a reply to Li Ji.

She first wrote about some things that happened in the court recently, such as the sage's serious illness, and the monopoly of King Wuzhang.

Only then did she start writing about her own affairs.

Recently, the fetal movement in the abdomen has become more and more frequent, and the amplitude of the fetal movement has also become larger and larger.

She can sometimes even touch the baby's hands and feet through her belly.

She often suffers from insomnia recently, because her stomach is too big, she cannot lie on her back, she can only lie on her side, but she will feel uncomfortable if she lies on her side for a long time, and it takes a lot of effort to turn over, which makes her very uncomfortable to sleep at night.

Her calves were swollen and she looked as if she had gained weight.

Once when she looked in the mirror, she found that she had become much uglier, and she felt very uncomfortable immediately, and even shed tears.

Scared everyone around.

Master Feihe comforted her, this is normal, and told her to rest assured that she would be fine after giving birth.

Hua Manman really felt very sad at that time, as if the sky had collapsed.

Looking back now, she just finds it funny.

She wrote all these bits and pieces into the letter, and unknowingly, she wrote three full sheets of paper.

Hua Manman neatly folded the letter paper, stuffed it into the envelope, and sealed the envelope with beeswax.

At this moment, Ruyun walked in, and she said quickly.

"General Xiaoqi has come and said he has something to discuss with you, so he is waiting in the flower hall."

Hua Manman put away the letter casually, stood up and said, "I'll go over and have a look."

In the flower hall.

Qinghuan put a cup of hot tea by Bian Ziming's hand, and said slowly,

"Please... drink tea, princess... she..."

Bian Ziming looked at her, and after waiting for a long time, he couldn't wait for the next content, so he couldn't help asking.

"What happened to the princess?"

Qinghuan: "Princess...she...soon..."

Another suffocating pause.

Bian Ziming was not impatient at first, but now he was forced to become one.

"What exactly are you trying to say?"

At this time, Ruyun walked in with Huamanman in his arms.

As soon as Bian Ziming saw the princess coming, he immediately stood up and saluted with fists in his hands.

"Meet Your Majesty the Princess."

Qinghuan: "... just come here."

Bian Ziming was speechless: "The concubine has already come, what's the point of you talking about this?"

Qinghuan continued to speak slowly: "You...don't worry..."

Bian Ziming couldn't help complaining: "As long as it is a person, you will have to be pushed into a hurry."

Hua Manman smiled and said: "Qinghuan is a bit slow in speaking, please General Bian not to take offense."

Bian Ziming thought to himself, isn't it just a little slow? It's maddeningly slow, isn't it? !

Hua Manman motioned him to sit down.

After both of them sat down, Hua Manman took the initiative to ask.

"General Bian is looking for me for something?"

Bian Ziming took out a secret letter from his sleeve: "This is the secret letter sent by the Empress Dowager this morning, please take a look."

Qinghuan stepped forward to receive the secret letter and handed it over to the princess.

Hua Manman opened the secret letter curiously.

There were only a few words in the letter, and she read it quickly.

In the letter, the Empress Dowager stated that there were changes in the palace, the saint was in danger, and King Zhao was urgently needed to return to Beijing for help.

Bian Ziming: "This is a serious matter. I don't know what to do. I came here to ask the princess for advice. What do you think the queen mother is referring to when she says danger?"

Hua Manman put down the letter, and instead of answering, asked, "Didn't you already guess it?"

Bian Ziming asked tentatively.

"You mean... King Wu Zhang?"
