Lu Chen said to the empress dowager, “I wonder if the imperial grandmother has eaten breakfast. Why don’t we have the Empress Dowager Make Breakfast for You?” The empress dowager said, “It’s hard for you to be filial, but I have long lost my sense of taste. There’s no need to eat breakfast.” The nanny beside the empress dowager handed a bowl of medicine to Lady Qiao and said, “Crown Princess Consort, please feed the Empress Dowager the medicine!” Lu Chen also sensed that something was wrong with the powder. He did not dare let Lady Qiao get close to him, so he said to the maidservant, “The Crown Princess Consort was busy yesterday. Why Don’t you let your grandson feed the medicine to the imperial grandmother?” Seeing the empress dowager’s successful intent in her eyes, Lady Qiao understood that the Empress Dowager had no need to deal with her. After all, she was different from Empress Zhou. The more the empress dowager dealt with herself, the more she would only become enemies with marquis an Yuan’s estate. The Empress Dowager’s intentions were clearly not in the wine. Her target was only Lu Chen. The powder the empress dowager was inhaling did not seem to be anything serious. If Lu Chen became addicted to it and hurt his body, the position of crown prince would naturally disappear. Qiao Jinniang rushed forward and took the medicine bowl from Lu Chen’s hands. As the two argued, the medicine bowl fell to the ground and shattered. The Empress Dowager flew into a rage, “The Crown Prince and the Crown Princess consort are already so old, yet they can’t even hold the medicine bowl properly? Or do you want me to not be able to take the medicine on time?” Qiao jinniang said, “Imperial grandmother, please forgive me.” Lu Chen no longer had the courtesy he had before and said, “Imperial grandmother, I and the Crown Princess consort are clumsy and can’t serve you. I will ask Big Brother and sister-in-law to take good care of you.” The empress dowager angrily rebuked, “Lu Chen, how dare you be so unfilial. Aren’t you afraid that the history books will record your unfilial name today?” Lu Chen said to the empress dowager, “Imperial grandmother, I have never cared about my own reputation. I only care about how much father’s reputation will tolerate you and do not wish for father to make things difficult for his mother and son. You, as a mother, do not care about your own son, and I, as a son, can not disappoint father!” “However, some things can be tolerated, but some things, I can not tolerate!” As Lu Chen spoke, he held Qiao Jinniang’s hand and said, “I will take my leave with the Crown Princess Consort.” As Qiao Jinniang followed Lu Chen out of the Empress Dowager’s palace, she said to him, “What should we do? If this matter spreads, outsiders will only blame you for being unfilial.” Great Tang ruled the country with filial piety. The word filial piety was the foundation of the country. Once it was involved in being unfilial, it would be immoral. The Empress Dowager’s move could be said to be killing two birds with one stone. The emperor’s connivance with the empress dowager’s use of rice dumplings would naturally not be spread, so the empress dowager’s use of white powder could not be explained. Lu Chen said, “Even if you are impeached and removed from the throne, I can not let you fall into danger.” Qiao Jinniang smiled at Lu Chen and said, “If you are really removed from the throne, my silver can also support you.” Lu Chen also smiled at her and said, “In the future, don’t come to the Empress Dowager’s place alone. Go back to the East Palace to rest first. I will make a trip to Hanliang Hall.” Qiao Jinniang held Lu Chen’s hand and said, “I will go with you.” In Hanliang Hall, the Minister of Law and the Minister of the Supreme Court were discussing the treatment of Zhou Qing and his mother and daughter. The Minister of the Supreme Court was Zhou Qing he’s second brother and should have avoided suspicion. However, this matter was really important and the Supreme Court had to intervene. The minister of Justice said, “Your Majesty, the murder of Xie Xiangxiang is related to the Hearts of the students of Qingming Academy. I think that Zhou Qing he is the main culprit and should be beheaded after autumn. His daughter, Zhou Shihui, is an accomplice with murderous intent and should be demoted to an official prostitute.” The Hui Lin Emperor said, “As you say.” The eunuch said in front of the Hui Lin Emperor, “Your Majesty, the Crown Prince and the crown princess are here.” “Oh? It’s a miracle that they can get up so early. Tell them to come in.” As soon as Lu Chen came in, he knelt on the ground and said, “Father, I have committed a great crime of disobedience and unfilial piety. I beg you to punish me.” Qiao Jinniang followed Lu Chen and knelt down. The Hui Lin Emperor frowned and asked the officials of the Ministry of Justice and the Supreme Court to leave. He asked Lu Chen, “Do you finally know how many crimes of disobedience you have committed? Get Up!” Lu Chen briefly told the Hui Lin Emperor about what had happened in the Empress Dowager’s palace. “Father, I don’t know what that white powder is, but I don’t dare to take the risk. I don’t think that a harmful thing like the rice sack flower should appear in the palace.” The Hui Lin emperor frowned and said, “Chen ‘er, the rice sack flower is your grandmother’s life-prolonging item. Once the rice sack flower and fruit are investigated in the palace, your grandmother can only die a sad death.” Lu Chen said, “Father has the intention to protect grandmother. I have nothing to say.” The Hui Lin Emperor said, “The empress dowager can not continue for a few days. Since I have compiled the filial piety scripture and advocated for the people to abide by the filial piety, I can not go against the filial piety at this time.” Qiao jinniang muttered, “It’s just a stupid filial piety.” The Hui Lin Emperor angrily said, “Crown Princess consort, do you really think that I won’t punish you for your disrespect?” Qiao Jinniang said in a low voice, “I’m not wrong. You want to maintain your filial piety, but I can’t bear to see my husband get hurt again and again. My husband had to live in fear and trepidation since he was young. His first life was given by you, but he had already returned it to you and his mother when Lin ‘an was harmed. Now, my husband’s life is given by me. “You can’t mistreat my husband because he is filial to you. You are willing to let your stupid filial piety ruin his life, but I am not willing to!” Lu Chen shook Qiao Jinniang’s hand and told her to stop talking. The Hui Lindi Sighed. “How could I want Chen ‘er to suffer? It’s just that the empress dowager doesn’t have much time left. Cutting her off at this time is tantamount to cutting off her life!” “Can you all just watch your own mother die because of you?” Qiao Jinniang said in a low voice, “When I came to Chang ‘an from Lin ‘an, I had thought that if my parents weren’t good parents, I would return to Lin ‘an and leave. “I am also a mother. If in the Future I fall into paranoia and do things that make Xi’er difficult and unreasonable, I would rather xi’er stand on the side of etiquette than Xi’er be burdened by filial piety.” The Hui Lin Emperor Thought for a moment and said to Lu Chen, “Princess Xiliang and Prince Rong’s wedding is coming up. I, Great Tang, pay attention to etiquette. You will replace Great Tang as an envoy and go to Xiliang Kingdom to propose marriage. At the same time, you will help fu an look for the Tianshan Snow Lotus.” The Hui Lin Emperor was in a dilemma and could only send Lu Chen away. Lu Chen cupped his hands and accepted the order. “Yes, I also want to bring Xi’er with me.” “I agree.” …… In the mansion of King Huai. Zhou Siming was in King Huai’s study and found out about the punishment the Ministry of Justice had given Zhou Qing and his mother and daughter. The last hope of saving Zhou Sisi was gone. Zhou siming frowned and said, “King Huai, what should we do now? Sisi she……” King Huai tapped his fingers on the table and said, “There is still a way. The winner will be the king, and the loser will be the bandit. It depends on whether your Zhou family dares to do it or not.” Zhou siming cupped his hands and said, “As long as I can save my sister’s life, I will not hesitate to rebel.” King Huai patted Zhou Siming’s shoulder and said, “Alright. If I can ascend to the throne in the future, the position of Empress will definitely be given to Sisi. “The position of the King’s uncle and the position of Duke of the Wu Kingdom will be reserved for you.”
