Lu Xiufu said: "At that time, we can also see what the emperor used to do, and then make a decision on the matter of taking charge of the government."

Chen Wenlong and others nodded, and there was a faint admiration in their eyes when they looked at Lu Xiufu.

Zhang Shijie also said: "Empress Dowager, Lord Lu's move is very appropriate."

Concubine Yang Shu nodded slightly, "Then according to Lord Lu, let's wait and see how the child responds."

This matter was settled. The ministers and imperial physicians sued Concubine Yang Shu.

Zhao Dongting naturally had no idea about this and was still staying in the bedroom to think about his solutions.

It was around seven o'clock in the evening.

Zhao Dongting was practicing internal skills in the bedroom, and Ying Er was serving him, and the guards outside the door suddenly reported: "Emperor, Master Yue asked for a meeting."

Zhao Dongting opened his eyes and said, "Let him come in."

The door was pushed open, and Yue Peng walked in from outside, still wearing armor.

When he arrived in front of Zhao Dongting, he was about to salute, but Zhao Dongting had already helped him with one hand, "I'm sorry."

Yue Peng looked at Zhao Dongting with gratitude, "Thank you, the Emperor."

Zhao Dongting looked at him and asked, "What's wrong with General Yue coming to see me at this time?"

Yue Peng wanted to speak but stopped saying, "The general had just finished patrol, and I don't know anything... I should not say it or not to listen to the emperor."

Zhao Dongting only thought he had discovered a detailed work, and said casually: "But it's okay."

Yue Peng's eyes glanced at Ying'er and Li Yuanxiu.

Zhao Dongting was slightly surprised, thinking about whether it was a secret matter, but thinking that Ying Er and Li Yuanxiu were both very loyal to him, he said, "General Yue doesn't need to worry about it. Ying Er and Eunuch Li are extremely trustworthy."

But Yue Peng still refused to say it and said, "Can you ask your father-in-law and the girl to avoid it?"

Ying'er is a maid who is deeply favored by Zhao Dongting, and he doesn't want to call him by his name directly.

Hearing this, Ying Er was gentle and was about to walk out of the house. However, Li Yuanxiu said, "The old slave must protect the safety of the emperor."

He said this with great utmost significance, as if there was no room for negotiation. He did not know Yue Peng before, and he did not trust Yue Peng very much.

Yue Peng knew that Li Yuanxiu was thinking, and he was helpless. But what he was going to say was inconvenient for people other than the emperor to hear, so he had to walk to Zhao Dongting and hurriedly said a few words.

After hearing this, Zhao Dongting stared at his eyes and stood up in shock and said, "Is this really the case?"

Yue Peng said: "The guard and the general are fellow townsmen, and they are young men. They are as close as brothers, so they should not lie to me."

"There is no wind coming from the hole..."

Zhao Dongting tsk twice, his face full of strangeness, and then said, "Take the guards with me!"

After saying that, he hurried to the door.

He was very happy now, but he didn't expect that Yue Peng would bring him such news, which was a timely help.

But when he walked to the door, he suddenly stopped and said, "No!"

Then he paced and thought about it in the house.

After all, Concubine Yang was also the biological mother of her body, which was equivalent to her own mother. If she rushed over with the guards like this, Concubine Yang would be disappointed and would be unimaginable. She would be too heartless to do so.

She didn't kill herself, she was already merciful.

But this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, just miss it like this?

But if Concubine Yang Shu lost power, would she really be in charge of power and sit steadily?

He paced back and forth around the incense burner inside the room for a few minutes without saying a word.

Yue Peng said: "Your Majesty, it's time to make a decision, otherwise..."

Zhao Dongting suddenly looked up, "No! I can't do this!"

Then he said to Yue Peng with a serious face: "You and your childhood friend must keep your mouth shut and not tell anyone about this."

Yue Peng had no regrets on his face, but just bowed, "Yes..."

When he left, Zhao Dongting pondered in the house again, "There is no strong force in this world that is not airtight. If Concubine Yang continues like this, it will inevitably be discovered. The outcome will be unpredictable and my face will be glorious..."

Thinking of this, Zhao Dongting suddenly stood up again and said, "Ying'er, father-in-law, follow me to see the Queen Mother!"

The three of them walked out of the room. The guard at the door planned to follow, but was stopped by Zhao Dongting, "You don't have to follow you."

With Li Yuanxiu as a master, Zhao Dongting was not worried about something going on. If even Li Yuanxiu couldn't stop him, then these guards would just be decorations.

When he arrived outside Yang Shufei's bedroom, Zhao Dongting was stopped by the guards guarding the door.

Li Yuanxiu shouted, "You are so arrogant!"

The head of the guard fell to the ground, "Emperor, the Empress Dowager has already fallen asleep. Please come again tomorrow."

Zhao Dongting didn't force himself to break in, just said, "I have something to discuss with the Empress Dowager, please go in and report quickly."

The head of the guard looked embarrassed, "Your Majesty, come again tomorrow!"

He was the direct descendant of Yang Yidong, otherwise he would not have been sent by Yang Yidong to protect Yang Shufei's bedroom.

Zhao Dongting looked at him with cold eyes and said, "Give you two choices, either go in and report immediately, or I force myself to break in."

The leader of the guard did not dare to blatantly disobey Zhao Dongting, so he had to get up and walk into the bedroom. Before leaving, he deliberately used a vague look to instruct his guards not to put Zhao Dongting and the others in. Yang Yidong gave a death order and no one was allowed to break into the Queen Mother's bedroom.

Zhao Dongting had not believed Yue Peng's words at first, but at this moment he knew it, and found it ridiculous and a little funny.

After a few minutes, the guard leader came out of the bedroom and bowed to Zhao Dongting, "Emperor, the Queen Mother invites you in."

Zhao Dongting nodded and walked inside with Li Yuanxiu and Ying'er.

The island of Benzhou was barren, and the minor court of the Southern Song Dynasty moved here in a hurry. Therefore, Yang Shufei's bedroom was also simple, but there was only a small courtyard of about ten square meters. Walking into the gate, you can walk through the courtyard and reach the inner gate of the bedroom.

Zhao Dongting saw Yang Yidong standing at the door of the inner door in casual clothes and asked deliberately: "Why is Mr. Yang here?"

Yang Yidong knelt down calmly, "Report to the emperor, I am here to protect the safety of the empress dowager."

Zhao Dongting stopped saying anything and sneered in his heart, "The guardian... he has been guarding the bed."

He pushed open the door of the bedroom and walked straight inside. Li Yuanxiu and Ying Er were blocked outside by Yang Yidong.

In the bedroom, Concubine Yang was sitting in front of the bronze mirror in casual clothes, combing her hair. Her black hair fell to her waist, showing a beautiful appearance in the world.

But there wasn't even a maid inside.

Seeing Zhao Dongting come in, Concubine Yang asked, "Why did Xier have to come in to see me at this time?"
