After playing polo, the autumn hunt was over. Gu Jiaojiao felt that the trip was good, and the others were still satisfied. Early the next morning, they set off for Beijing.
Back in the capital, Gu Jiaojiao started her previous life again.
After the court as usual, she was called to the bedroom by the queen.
She thought she was going to talk to her like before, but as soon as Gu Jiaojiao entered, she saw the queen lying on the bed, and the imperial physician was diagnosing her pulse.
Gu Jiaojiao stepped forward quickly and knelt beside her.
gujiaojiaoMother, but where is the body uncomfortable?
The empress rubbed her eyebrows with her other hand, closed her eyes, and spoke with exhaustion.
In fact, Gu Jiaojiao felt that something was wrong with the empress in the court just now, as if she couldn't lift her spirits.
She turned to ask the imperial doctor on the side.
gujiaojiaoDo you know what happened to the mother emperor?
"Your Highness, Your Majesty is dizzy and tired because he has been overworked for a long time and has accumulated stagnation. Your Majesty has had this before, so he can only adjust it slowly, and the minister will prescribe a few more prescriptions."
The imperial doctor told the reason and withdrew. Gu Jiaojiao stretched out her hand and pressed her head to the queen.
gujiaojiaoMother, you have worked hard
nvhuangIt seems that I'm really old and can't take it anymore
The queen opened her eyes, pulled her up and sat on the bed, holding her hand.
nvhuangYou heard what the imperial doctor said. You are the imperial daughter. Try to handle government affairs for me these days
nvhuangFeng Ming will be handed over to you sooner or later
nvhuangYou can't be sloppy
Gu Jiaojiao saw a few strands of white hair on the queen's sideburns, and finally clenched her hand.
gujiaojiaoChildren understand
gujiaojiaoI just hope that my mother will teach me more. I am afraid that I will not be able to leave my mother
The queen took her into her arms.
gujiaojiaoMother, you'll be fine
nvhuangWhat can I do, so many imperial physicians?
nvhuangIt's you, go back and prepare well. Tomorrow in court, you have to start listening to politics carefully
gujiaojiaoOk, daughter obeys
Gu Jiaojiao talked to the empress for a while, and then left the palace and returned to the mansion. Seeing her sad face, Ma Jiaqi stepped forward to ask her, but he encountered any difficulties when he went up.
Gu Jiaojiao shook her head, then reached out and hugged his waist, buried it in his arms, and told him what happened just now.
Ma Jiaqi's hand fell on her back and patted her lightly to comfort her.
majiaqiDon't worry, Your Majesty is just working too hard, just rest well
majiaqiBesides, with your help, it's not a problem
majiaqiThen you will be in the palace during this time
gujiaojiaoI'll be back when I'm done

Early the next morning in the court, the queen told the ministers about her decision, saying that she was ill, and that Her Royal Highness the Great Daughter was temporarily in charge of government affairs, with the help of the Prime Minister.
Naturally, the ministers should be, and they will definitely assist Her Royal Highness.
So for the first time, Gu Jiaojiao sat next to the queen and listened to the minister below.
Originally, standing below, she could still walk around occasionally, but now she had to pay attention to what they said and give a solution.
Zhang Zhenyuan threw encouraging eyes at her offstage.
The end of the court did not mean the end. She had to go to the study to approve the memorials of the ministers. Fortunately, at the beginning, the queen was also helping her.
Not knowing how long she had been sitting, Gu Jiaojiao's waist was sore and her hands were sore. She twisted her neck, only to realize that this upper position was not so easy to sit on.
It's really hard.
