Chapter 1061: He Lingsi panicked, news enters Liangzhou!【3】
The court session dispersed.
Empress Dowager Dong, wearing a black phoenix robe, left the Chongde Hall accompanied by Jian Shuo.
Empress Dowager Dong, riding on the phoenix carriage, kept Liu Xie by her side, inseparable.
"Jian Shuo, how is the Empress now? Is she still stable?"
Empress Dowager Dong asked casually.
Jian Shuo, who was following the side of Empress Dowager Dong's phoenix carriage, nodded and said: "Reporting to the Empress Dowager, although the Empress has tried to leave the Changqiu Palace several times, she has been blocked by the Imperial Guards on duty at the Changqiu Palace."
"The Empress also demanded to see His Majesty, but without the Empress Dowager's decree, this general did not allow the Empress to pass."
Hearing Jian Shuo's words, Empress Dowager Dong nodded with satisfaction.
Then she reached out and gently stroked Liu Xie's long hair.
"The Crown Prince is pitiful; he was poisoned by that vicious woman He Lingsi just after he was born."
"For so many years, she has been acting recklessly in the harem, and how many of His Majesty's children have died tragically at her hands? Does she really think I don't know anything about these things?"
"If it weren't for His Majesty's indulgence, how could she have been so arrogant until now." Empress Dowager Dong's face was cold.
In this Imperial Palace, everyone knows that Empress He Lingsi and Empress Dowager Dong are at odds.
The main reason is still because of the Marquis of Dong, Liu Xie.
Back when Consort Wang had not yet given birth to Liu Xie, Empress He Lingsi wanted to poison her.
It was just that she didn't succeed later.
But not long after Consort Wang gave birth to Liu Xie, she was poisoned to death by Empress He Lingsi.
This matter was later known to the Emperor, and he almost stripped He Lingsi of her position as Empress.
Later, Liu Xie stayed by Empress Dowager Dong's side to be raised.
And the Emperor only had two children, and the future throne would inevitably be produced between the two children.
Liu Xie was a thorn in Empress He Lingsi's side, but he had always been well protected by Empress Dowager Dong.
Therefore, He Lingsi also held a grudge against Empress Dowager Dong.
Empress Dowager Dong herself was naturally well aware of this.
He Lingsi held a grudge against her; once He Lingsi held power, her fate would be imaginable.
Two imperial sons, one Shi Hou and one Marquis of Dong, were both the Emperor's children.
It doesn't matter who succeeds to the throne.
But if Shi Hou Liu Bian succeeds to the throne, it means that the relative He clan is about to hold power.
He Lingsi will become the Empress Dowager, and Grand General He Jin will be like Liang Yi.
And she, this Empress Dowager, will naturally be retaliated against by He Lingsi.
Therefore, Empress Dowager Dong had no choice but to strike first.
Fortunately, it is Jian Shuo who controls the palace guards and the Imperial Guards, not Zhang Rang and others who favor the He clan.
"Watch her well, do not let her step out of the Changqiu Palace, and do not let anyone enter. Just maintain the basic needs of the Changqiu Palace." Empress Dowager Dong said with cold eyes: "Let her reflect on all the evil deeds she has done over the years in the Changqiu Palace."
"Also, send people to watch over Shi Hou; absolutely no mistakes can be made."
Jian Shuo nodded upon hearing this: "This general will strictly follow the Empress Dowager's orders."
Changqiu Palace.
Although only two days had passed, He Lingsi looked noticeably thinner. ===== CHAPTER 1063 =====
