Chapter 315: Queen Mother

The queen's eyes turned cold. The queen mother was against her, so why would she come to visit Gu Jingyun?

Tingyuan and Su Wan had already told her what the queen mother had done.

The queen mother was obsessed with money and blood, and she was more cheap than grass.

"Why? The queen doesn't welcome me?" The queen mother came in without permission, and her eyes fell on Gu Jingyun with contempt, very picky, as if she wanted to find something bad.

He was wearing a blue plain robe made of silk cloth, and a small jade crown on his head, which exuded a bright luster. The jade was clear and transparent, which made the jade-like little man look a bit noble.

At this moment, his little face was tightly tense, and there was no uneasiness or panic in his black eyes. Instead, he was very calm and could not find any flaws.

The queen mother originally wanted to say that people raised in small families were not presentable, so she took him back to educate him.

Now it seems that Gu Jingyun was well educated by the Gu family, and he did not have the childishness of a poor family. The queen would definitely not agree.

"Is this Jingyun?" The Queen Mother collected her thoughts and waved to Gu Jingyun lovingly: "Good boy, come here."

"Mother, Jing'er is shy." The Queen Mother was as if facing a great enemy. She touched Gu Jingyun's little face and said gently: "Didn't you say that you ate a lot for breakfast and now you want to go to the toilet? Don't hold it in, go quickly!"

The Queen Mother called the palace maid to take Gu Jingyun to go to the toilet.

Gu Jingyun saluted the Queen Mother in a proper manner, and then prepared for the palace maid to leave.

"Wait." The Queen Mother took a wooden box with a twig pattern from the nanny and handed it to Gu Jingyun: "This is a gift from the Royal Grandmother."

"Thank you." Gu Jingyun took the wooden box.

The palace maid beside him held it for him and led him to the side hall.

Only the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother were left in the outer hall.

The queen wiped her eyes with a handkerchief, calmed down and said: "Mother, Jing'er is still alive, my wish is fulfilled. The prince made a mistake and has been deposed as the crown prince. In all dynasties, the legitimate son is appointed instead of the eldest son. Jing'er is the legitimate son, so he is appointed as the crown prince, which is legitimate."

The queen mother's eyes are cold. Gu Jingyun is lucky and has a good life. She has helped him escape several times.

If she makes a move this time and he escapes again, she can only take the worst plan.

Gu Jingyun ascended the throne and pardoned the world. The deposed crown prince was released. How could he have a chance to counterattack?

"Of course, according to the rules, Jingyun is the legitimate son, so he will inherit the throne." The Queen Mother paused and frowned, "But as a royal bloodline, he has been taught by the Grand Tutor since birth. He..."

"Don't worry, mother. Jing'er has been taught by Old Master Jiang in person for more than half a year." The Queen's eyes flew, proud of Gu Jingyun: "Old Master Jiang said that he is the most intelligent and spiritual child. What he was taught can be applied to other situations. If he is taught for another year or two, he will be unable to teach. He is even better than Yi'er."

Yi'er is the Queen's eldest son who died young.

The Queen Mother didn't care, and said with a smile in her eyes: "This is a blessing for the Great Zhou. I just hope he lives longer than Yi'er."

The battle was bloodless, and it pierced the Queen's heart.

The queen's face changed, she took a deep breath, and smiled slowly: "Although Yi'er died young, his father loved him and sought the truth for this, so he can be reborn with peace of mind."

The queen mother's smile froze. The emperor was afraid of the monopoly of power by his relatives, which led to the death of the eldest son. Soon the emperor was obsessed with alchemy in order to achieve immortality. This was the revenge of the queen and the regent!

This is a warning.

The contradictions that were surging under the tide were almost exposed.

The queen mother looked at the queen obscurely and said with her hands folded: "Hold the things in your hand firmly."

"What belongs to me will come to me even if I don't fight or grab it. Even if I don't know people well and give it to the wrong person, the gods opened their eyes and let me get it back. What is not mine, no matter how much you plan, it will be in vain." The queen said softly: "Mother, you should understand it deeply."

The anger in the queen mother's eyes almost burst out, and the last bit of reason made her suppress her anger.

At this time, the eunuch came in to report to the queen: "Your Majesty, something happened. Lord Cao sent people to break into private houses last night and killed civilians indiscriminately. Fortunately, General Zhao discovered it in time and wanted to arrest the troublemakers. Lord Cao's people resisted, which triggered conflicts. General Zhao's people killed them as thieves. When they were cleared, they found out that they were Lord Cao's people.

In addition, when he was the governor of the local area, he committed several crimes. Now they were all dug out together. The evidence is conclusive. The cabinet unanimously decided to exile Lord Cao."

The queen's eyes flashed slightly. She knew very well what happened last night. The queen mother sent people to sneak into the Gu Mansion in order to capture Gu Jingyun. They were killed by the Qi family army, and those "civilians" were also the queen mother's death warriors. They changed their clothes and gave them a random identity.

It is not good for the Qi family army to fight and kill people casually, so Zhao Wei was deliberately picked out to take the blame.

Cao Guangyi knew it well, and he had to bear the brunt of the dirty water. He couldn't betray the queen mother and then continue to investigate the matter. They were for the little prince, and the situation was even worse.

He was waiting for the queen mother to turn over, so he acquiesced to the one-sided words of Meng Yushi and protected the queen mother.

The queen mother was shocked when she heard it. Cao Guangyi was her right-hand man. If he was exiled, he would lose an important force.

But she was powerless to refute such a ridiculous charge and to seek justice for Cao Guangyi.

Gu Jingyun was not in their hands, and the weapons and dragon robes were not found. No matter how they changed their confession, the final result would only be worse than expected.

The queen mother left with her people in a mighty manner.

The queen raised the corner of her mouth and smiled ironically. She waved away the eunuchs and got up to go to the side hall.

Gu Jingyun was sitting on a reed mat, flipping through a yellowed book.

This book seemed to have been flipped through frequently, and the edges were already rough. The words inside were very smooth and vigorous, but unfortunately they lacked some strength. If he practiced his wrist strength, the handwriting would be even more amazing.

Behind each line of the article, there were dense comments and opinions.

"This is your brother's book. He is not in good health and often gets sick. He is very sad in winter and will not go out easily. He likes to read books and practice calligraphy here." The queen knelt beside him. There was a pile of books on the table and several used brushes on the pen holder. The new one in the middle was particularly eye-catching: "These are all things your brother used. I kept them." She reached out and took the new brush and put it in Gu Jingyun's hand: "The fetal hair should be cut after a full month or a hundred days. You were cut when you were just born, so I kept it as a thought."

Gu Jingyun clenched the brush in his hand, and mist appeared in his eyes, blurring his vision.

She really liked him.

"I won't let you down." Gu Jingyun managed to say this.

The queen's eyes were filled with gentle light, and she looked at him quietly: "Every child is the best child in the eyes of his mother. The queen likes every look of you. Just be yourself, don't wrong yourself to please me."

"I know." Gu Jingyun looked at her beautiful and gentle face glowing, as if he was her light, illuminating her life. His nose was sour, and he whispered: "Mother."
