At this time, in the empress dowager's bedroom.
A woman with gray temples frowned slightly.
There is a luxurious and graceful hairpin in her hair, and the hanging steps sway, the beads collide, and the sound is crisp. On those well-maintained hands, the little finger is wearing a long armor, and the armor is inlaid with jewels.
It is the current queen mother.
In a harem without a queen, the queen mother is undoubtedly the person with the most say in the harem.
However, there was a bit of melancholy lingering between her brows.
"Is that so..."
After hearing the message from the servants sent by Eunuch Li, the Empress Dowager sighed sadly, a little worried: "Your Majesty has no appetite for dinner?"
The servant nodded and bowed and said: "Your Majesty dismissed the servants when he returned to the palace, and went to rest in the bedroom... Eunuch Li specially sent a servant to report that His Majesty has no appetite, and he doesn't know how to persuade..."
When the queen mother heard this, she glanced at the servant.
She has lived at such an advanced age, so she naturally knows what these servants are thinking.
His Majesty said that he has no appetite to eat, but Eunuch Li would not dare to persuade him.
That's why I let the servant come over to plead guilty.
The Queen Mother sighed.
She also understands these palace people. Your Majesty's character is indeed frightening.
Even as a mother, she didn't dare to speak in front of him. Every time she cared about the other party, she had to carefully consider her tone, for fear of offending him.
Thinking about it, the Queen Mother couldn't help but sighed again, remembering the symptoms of the emperor's headache, and asked, "Your Majesty, haven't you had a headache today?"
"Not yet." The servant quickly replied.
The Queen Mother nodded.
The emperor's son suffered from an illness since he was a child. When he got a headache, he became irritable. Over time, his personality became cloudy, cruel and bloodthirsty. No one in the court was not afraid of him, and everyone in the harem and the military camp was also trembling.
This headache, I don't know what to do.
Because of this illness, Huang'er has not slept well for a long time.
She searched all over the world for famous doctors, but they were all at a loss.
Distressed and helpless.
The queen mother waved her hand to the servant: "Forget it, you can go back."
The servant hurriedly bowed and left.
The queen mother stood silently in the hall.
The curtain of the inner hall was lifted by a plain white hand, revealing a bright little face with jet-black hair, bright eyes and white teeth, bright red cinnabar on the lips, looking forward and looking at the eyes.
The beautiful girl came out from behind the curtain, and asked obediently, "Auntie, why are you sighing again, what's wrong with Your Majesty?"
The Queen Mother looked back at her.
This bright-eyed, white-toothed, pretty-faced girl was picked out from her natal family and brought into the palace on purpose.
Because there are no women in the harem, the queen mother specially named her a concubine, making her one of the four concubines at a young age, which gave her enough honor and face.
Had hoped she would be useful.
The emperor didn't have a woman to serve her, the queen mother thought, it might be different if she had a woman.
In the end, the other party wanted to kill those women, and the queen mother had no choice but to lock them all into limbo.
As for the noble concubine, now she only bears the title of noble concubine, but she can't even go to His Majesty's bedroom.
In the Empress Dowager's mind, her son was naturally more important.
The concubine whom she was expecting to pick up was useless, she couldn't help but feel very disappointed, and even became colder towards this noble concubine.
"Well," she said calmly, "Your Majesty didn't eat on time today... If you can be more aggressive, it would be great if you can make His Majesty feel happy."
The imperial concubine was embarrassed when she heard this.
To coax His Majesty into a good mood
There is no one in the world who can do this.
