[    ]Imperial Garden Pavilion.

Seeing Princess Dingtao arrive, the little emperor stood up first and performed the junior ceremony.

"Please my aunt!"

"No, no!"

Dingtao was frightened and took several steps to avoid it.

Nothing good or bad, how dare she receive courtesy?

I was afraid that this was another trick arranged by Queen Mother Yan to frame her.

At this moment, she was so scared that her face turned pale and she was in panic that she couldn't help herself.

Empress Dowager Yan brought the little emperor by her side and gently stroked her head, "Dingtao, see if Yan'er has grown taller?"

She spoke a gentle tone and her attitude was like chatting about homesickness, and she looked amiable.

Dingtao looked shocked and nodded nervously, "Yes, he has grown taller. Dingtao greets His Majesty and the Empress Dowager!"

She realized it later and walked forward carefully, for fear of being criticized.

Queen Mother Yan smiled slightly, "Family, why should you be so polite? Has the emperor finished his homework today?"

The little emperor shook his head, "The homework has not been completed yet."

"Then, go and finish your homework first. Later, I will check your studies."

"Son obeys the order! My nephew says goodbye first, and my aunt does whatever she wants."

The little emperor left surrounded by the eunuchs and palace maids.

The Imperial Garden Pavilion suddenly seemed deserted.

Empress Dowager Yan politely greeted Dingtao to sit down and have tea.

Dingtao was trembling with fear, looking like a frightened bird, and a little bit of wind and movement could make her jump up.

"Why……"

Empress Dowager Yan sighed, "The emperor's education is particularly nervous, I am afraid that I will let down the late emperor's entrustment. I am afraid that it will be too strict and that the emperor will be rebellious.

He was also afraid that he would not be enterprising and develop a lazy temperament.

Dingtao, the emperor is your only nephew and is also the hope of the Great Wei Dynasty. What do you think this palace should do?"

Dingtao looked confused.

She is qualified to participate in the emperor's education?

What a joke.

"Why don't you talk? Don't you care about the emperor, your only nephew? If the emperor has a few shortcomings, what will you do if you ask this palace to do? What will happen to the Great Wei Dynasty?"

As she was talking, Empress Dowager Yan wiped her tears. She was clearly an anxious mother who was worried that her child would not be successful and was afraid that her child would have a chance.

She asked the other party, "Are you still resenting me and resenting me to imprison you for so long?"

Dingtao shook his head repeatedly to deny it, not daring to speak out, for fear of being excited and saying the wrong thing.

Empress Dowager Yan gently wiped it, "You don't have to deny it. If it were me, I would be detained for so long for no reason, and I would feel resentful.

Dingtao, can you understand the difficulties of this palace, right? You are also a mother, and you should be able to understand the idea that this palace wishes to give everything the best in the world to children.

What's more, the emperor's son is still the future of the Great Wei Dynasty. All this is done by the emperor and for your only nephew. Can you understand this? Can you forgive me for being cruel for the moment?"

She held the other person's hand with a sincere expression and a sincere look.

She is an anxious mother and a good mother.

Everything is for the sake of the children.

Tears were still spinning in her eyes.

At this moment, she sincerely repented, sincerely repented, and really wanted to ask for Dingtao's understanding.

Dingtao's heart was a mess, and it was still messy.

"Empress Dowager, don't do this, you'll ruin me. The emperor is my only nephew, and I must be looking forward to the emperor's good luck."

Empress Dowager Yan burst into tears and laughed, "I know you will not hurt the emperor, and I hope he will be well from the bottom of my heart. It is his blessing for the emperor to have an aunt like you."

Dingtao laughed with her, her expression was not very natural.

The hand that was held by the other party seemed to be stiff, making her feel uncomfortable.

She wanted to break free, but as soon as she exerted force, she was grabbed even tighter.

"Dingtao, can you promise something to me?" Queen Mother Yan asked.

Dingtao was stunned for a moment, then whispered: "Please tell me, Empress Dowager."

Empress Dowager Yan had a serious expression and was solemn, "Can you swear that you should never do anything that hurts the emperor, no matter how you do."

Dingtao was confused.

Under the pressure of the other party's eyes, she hesitated: "Of course I won't do anything to hurt the emperor."

"Not enough! Not enough at all! You must swear!"

Empress Dowager Yan's aura changed.

tough!

oppression!

Can't breathe!

This is what Dingtao feels at this moment.

Her heart trembled, "Why do you have to swear?"

"Because I am not at ease."

Queen Mother Yan did not hide anything, and she told the other party in a blunt manner that she was not trustworthy.

She was kind and tempted, like a natural negotiating expert, tempting each other word by word.

"The person who hurts the late emperor the most is the person closest to the late emperor. In the same situation, I do not want it to happen to the emperor.

The court seems quiet, but in fact it is a surging undercurrent and may burst out at any time.

It doesn't matter if this palace is hurt, but I am worried that it will hurt the emperor.

Dingtao, Yan'er is your only nephew in this world. Can you make a poisonous oath for him? You will never do anything that hurts him in your life."

"I, I can make a poisonous oath. I, Dingtao, will never do anything to hurt the emperor in my life, otherwise I will be struck by lightning. The poisonous oath is issued. Can the Empress Dowager answer me a question?"

Dingtao calmed down rarely.

She used all her strength and courage to question the other party.

She was uneasy.

Once the other party refused, she could never be able to muster up the courage to do this for the second time.

Queen Mother Yan was finally willing to let go of her hand and smiled gently, "Thank you, Dingtao. You are willing to make a poisonous oath for the emperor, which shows that you are a person with a conscience and a person who can distinguish the importance of the matter. Before you ask a question, I want to remind you, have you considered the consequences?"

Dingtao's face turned pale in an instant, as if he was a ghost.

She opened her mouth several times, but she could not speak a word.

Empress Dowager Yan stared at her with sharp eyes, "What questions do you want to ask? Have you thought about it? I am willing to answer your questions."

Dingtao shook his head repeatedly, looking painful and upset.

She cried bitterly and said frequently: "I have no problem, I have no problem."

Queen Mother Yan gently stroked the back of her hand, "Really? Didn't you say you wanted to ask me a question?"

"No, I was confused before! I have been disturbing the Empress Dowager for so long, and I want to leave the palace and go back to the house. Please allow the Empress Dowager."

"Okay! I will send someone to send you out of the palace now. Your child is better to go to the palace to be a companion for the emperor, okay? They are cousins, so brothers should be closer."

"I, can I consider a few days?"

"Okay! Don't think about it for too long. I am worried that it will delay the child's homework."

"Thank you, Empress Dowager! Goodbye!"

Dingtao wished he could run away from this place of right and wrong.

Fortunately...

She controlled her impulse, walked slowly down the pavilion, and followed the palace servants out of the imperial garden.

Until she left the palace, she seemed to learn to breathe and breathe freely.

The princess's mansion had been waiting for a long time, and obviously she had received a notice from the palace in advance, knowing that she had left the palace today.

She got on the carriage and just sat firmly, she was already crying.

She understands it all!
