I can't die!I haven't ruled the world yet!

Chapter 18
The Empress Dowager returned to the palace at five o'clock in the afternoon, the guard of honor was light and simple, and there were no more than five people in the palace.

Although there was no publicity, the Empress Dowager suddenly returned to the palace, and it was New Year's Eve. All the women in the harem went to pay their respects, and a large crowd fell to their knees inside and outside Guangshou Palace.

"The empress dowager is a thousand years old!"

Rong Cen, the Nine-Five Lord, does not need to kneel down to worship.

I saw a beige plain robe, twisting a Buddhist bead in my hand, watching a woman who was not over half a hundred get out of the sedan chair.

"Imperial Grandmother, Happy New Year."

Rong Cen stepped forward to support her, and the scent of sandalwood flooded into his breath.

"The cloud period is also safe."

The Empress Dowager was still as gentle and kind as she remembered.

Facing the palace full of people, it was inevitable to greet and greet.It was seven quarters before noon when the insignificant people were sent away.

Only the Empress Dowager and her cronies, the regent and Rong Cen remained in Guangshou Palace.

"Why are your hands so cold, but your body is not feeling well? The Ai family saw that Yunqi lost a lot of weight."

After the meeting, the Empress Dowager held onto Rong Cen's hand and never let go of it the whole time.

She was kind-hearted, and when she came back from living in the imperial temple, she seemed to have a Buddha's light on her body, illuminating Rong Cen without hesitation.

"The Ai family brought Kong Lan back to you, and let her take care of you in the future. The Ai family knows that you have great ambitions, but you must first strengthen your body before you can plan big things."

The empress dowager's eyes were full of distress.

"Yunqi has been addicted to singing and dancing these days, and he is already fat." The regent couldn't stand it anymore, "The one who is thin is your own son. He has been working on state affairs and cleaning up messes for him, and his hair is gray."

"Since you are the emperor's uncle, you should take responsibility. Serving the country is your blessing, and you should cherish it."

The empress dowager knows best what kind of virtue he was born with, and she has never been used to him.

The regent wanted to argue again, but the Empress Dowager directly issued an order to expel the guest.

"If you don't marry a wife for so long, what face do you have to talk about it here? Get out of the palace quickly, and don't hinder the eyes of Ai's family!"

"Seeing you this time, I don't know how much merit and virtue I have lost. I wasted my family copying scriptures and chanting Buddha day and night under the Buddha's seat!"

Regent:"……"

If it wasn't for the age mismatch, he would have really suspected that Yun Qi was the empress dowager's own son, and he was the real prince who had been replaced with Yun Qi's civet cat since he was a child.

Rong Cen silently watched the regent Yugen leave the scene, not knowing that the Empress Dowager did it on purpose.

I just think it's good that the emperor's grandmother didn't give the emperor's uncle a chance to talk.

After driving away Nizi, the Empress Dowager's ears were finally cleared, and she began to pull Rong Cen to say sweet words.

"Jiayi (yì)."

When I first heard the name, it seemed like a lifetime away.

In my impression, only the first emperor would occasionally call her that.

The emperor father taught her to govern the country, trained her to be a wonderful woman with a literary and martial arts strategy, told her that a woman can support the sky, and even left Dayin to her, but never mentioned her life experience.

In this world, he has only been away for half a year, and the people still sing praises and remember Emperor Xiaozhong, but Rong Cen has been wandering for 25 years, and he can't remember what he looks like.

She only remembered his withered hand when he was dying, drooping by the side of the agarwood dragon bed, and the traces of his existence slowly dissipated in the long river of her memory, leaving only the last sentence "My daughter Jiayi".

"But remember your father?" The Empress Dowager gently rubbed the acupoints on her palm, "You have taken on such a big task at a young age, and it is really hard for him to do it for you."

Rong Cen was brought back to reality from his confused thoughts, only then did he suddenly realize that it was the emperor's grandmother who called him.

So she knows her background?
Rong Cen raised his head abruptly, and looked at the woman who had been widowed for many years and had not been eroded by the years.

Sure enough, the Empress Dowager nodded.

"The Ai family knows, but the Ai family has promised the late emperor that they will not reveal it, and will tell you when the time is right."

Being stared at by Rong Cen, she seemed to be unable to bear it, as if she would betray her promise and tell the truth the next moment.

Rong Cen decided to add a fire, a fire.

"I always thought that I was born of the Queen Mother, the only son under her knees, but she had never looked at me directly. I was raised in Canglan Palace before I was five years old, and she never went to visit. The maid of honor, full of joy, thought that the queen mother would come to see me, she searched the box and chest to find gorgeous clothes, prepared for a long time, but found that Aunt Feng Ju was just passing by."

"Later, I was able to leave Canglan Palace. Even though I went to Cikang Palace to look for her, I somehow provoked her into a rage, threw the most precious jasper finger on me, and ordered my father-in-law to drive me into a panic. leave."

"When I grow up, I will go in and out of the Hall of Renzheng with my father, hunt in spring and autumn, eliminate bandits and rescue disasters... During this period, I have encountered various assassinations and poisons, and I have escaped countless times. , I checked the past, and found out that I have lived a difficult life in the past ten years, because the queen mother pushed me into the gate of hell every time with her own hands."

Rong Cen waited, and the stick of incense burned out, but she still didn't reveal anything.

In the film and television dramas watched in the new era, the life experience is all told when the parents are dying.

She didn't understand, since her father was dead, why couldn't she tell her about her life experience?
When will the time be ripe?

"Emperor Grandmother, can't you say even a few words or clues?"

The Empress Dowager looked away, the answer was obvious.

Both of them were silent and deadlocked.

Kong Lan broke the calm with "no, no".

Only then did Rong Cen notice people other than the Empress Dowager.

Her personal doctor, Kong Lan, and the Empress Dowager's maid of honor, Song Nanny.

Kong Lan was normal earlier, her soft and soft voice was very sweet.It's just that she tried the wrong medicine to save her back then, which caused her throat to be damaged and she couldn't speak.

Goodbye Kong Lan, those sad and sad past seem to be right in front of my eyes.

Aunt Konglan suffered too much with her.

When he first returned to Dayin, only Zhou Geng was the only relative around him, Rong Cen was worried, but slightly pleased.

It's better not to follow her, and live a long life.

It was later discovered that it was the Empress Dowager who saved those people for her.

The empress dowager sent Yuan Zhong out of the palace to rest for the rest of his life on the charge of angering the nobles.He also transferred the dumb woman Kong Lan to her side on the grounds of physical discomfort.

Responsibility and protection.

"Thank you, Grandmother."

Rong Cen could no longer be angry with her.

If it weren't for the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager has already succeeded in the palace transformation, and she may be busy with the enthronement ceremony.

Putting aside the miscellaneous matters for the time being, we should liquidate the remnants of the traitorous party and discuss how to deal with the Empress Dowager.

The empress dowager also wanted to talk about this, she sighed.

"The first emperor is indeed a wise emperor. The previous court was well-organized, but he is not good at the affairs of the harem!"

Resentment rarely appeared on that amiable face.

"At the beginning, he was ashamed of the queen mother, and he gave two orders to avoid death in a daze after drinking, and he was made a fuss by everyone in the capital!"

"Last night, Xiao Lian bloodbathed the Ye Party. No one would believe him if he said he didn't have your order. On the seventh day of the lunar new year, there will definitely be memorials accusing you of disrespecting the late emperor like snowflakes."

The Empress Dowager held Rong Cen's hand tightly, patted it reassuringly, and said, "So Jiayi, Mrs. Ye...you can't move for now."
