Fengming Chen Palace

Chapter 337
Originally, Emperor Chen was hesitant, but seeing that Su Qingning was very persistent, he made up his mind.

Zhou Chengren knew about his birth mother, Zhao's. The emperor brought Zhou Chengren to him and gave him a detailed instruction.

Zhou Chengren got the order and left Yuxiu Palace to make preparations. In the inner room, Grandma Chen heard the voice in the outer room, her eyes were red.

As expected of his sister's son, he was a good one, and it was not in vain to give birth to him, but my sister lost her life.

…………

On the second day, Emperor Chen secretly left the palace with Su Qingning, Zhou Chengren followed, and Nanny Chen stayed behind.

After all, there are two children in Yuxiu Palace, and it is always worrying to have a wet nurse to take care of them.

Both Hongjin and Hongxiu have their own affairs, and Nanny Chen is watching over them, which is the most reassuring.

As the carriage drove all the way, Su Qingning looked at Emperor Chen, with a look of anxiety on his face.

"Your Majesty." Stretching out his hand and holding the hand of Emperor Chen, Su Qingning spoke softly.

"Ningning, this is the first time I went to worship my biological mother. For some reason, I always feel a little nervous." Looking at Su Qingning, the emperor said.

Although in the past, Emperor Chen brought people to transfer Zhao's bones to a place with good geomantic omen and worshiped them, but the feeling at that time was different from now.

"The emperor said so, and this concubine is even more nervous." Jiang tightened his hand, "As a daughter-in-law, this is the first time I see my mother-in-law."

When the bones were transferred before, Su Qingning was not there. After careful calculation, this was indeed the first time she went to see Mrs. Zhao.

"It's okay. My biological mother must be a very gentle person. She will like you as a daughter-in-law very much. Besides, you gave her two grandchildren."

After listening to Su Qingning's words, Emperor Chen smiled and said, his heart, which was a little uneasy before, gradually calmed down.

The carriage continued to walk until it reached the foot of the mountain. Emperor Chen and Su Qingning got off the carriage and walked up the mountain together.

It was not far, that is, more than a quarter of an hour, and we arrived.

Zhou Chengren handed the prepared incense candle ingots to Emperor Chen, while he silently stepped aside. Emperor Chen and Su Qingning came to Zhao's tomb together.

Zhao's cemetery was repaired according to Nanny Chen's advice, and it can't even compare with those big families in the capital.

But Mother Chen said that Mrs. Zhao is a person who likes simplicity. If it is too complicated, I am afraid that she will feel uncomfortable.

Kneeling down with Su Qingning, Emperor Chen didn't care at all, the ground was cold and hard.

He took out the torch and lit the joss sticks in the basket, while Su Qingning placed the prepared tribute in front of Zhao's grave.

The tributes were arranged, the incense candles were lit, and the prepared ingots and burning paper were also taken out.

The fire was burning and it was very warm. Emperor Chen looked at Zhao's tombstone. Although he didn't say anything, the sadness on his face was still obvious.

Su Qingning noticed it, and shifted her gaze from his face to the tombstone of Mrs. Zhao. She was rambling on about who she was, and how she always felt embarrassed when she saw Mrs. Zhao for the first time.

She also talked about the children and told interesting stories about the children from birth to the present.

Emperor Chen knelt at the side, heard the voice beside him, turned his head to look at Su Qingning, saw her talking to Zhao's tombstone as if she was talking homely, and warmth flashed in her eyes.

Su Qingning not only talked about herself and her children, but also about the emperor. She has become a mother and knows how a mother treats her children.

Although Mrs. Zhao is dead, she must have thought of the emperor very much when she was alive.

Before, Su Qingning didn't believe that there was a soul in this world, but since she traveled through time, she felt that everything has a soul.

She talked for a long time, until the incense sticks and ingots were burned out, and she had nothing to say, and her mouth was dry, so she stopped.

The Emperor Chen had been looking at her, seeing her stop, he couldn't help but smile.

Withdrawing his gaze, Emperor Chen looked at Zhao's tombstone, and said something in a low voice. Su Qingning listened carefully, probably saying that everything is fine with him, please rest assured.

Standing up from the ground, Emperor Chen stretched out his hand and pulled Su Qingning up.

Holding hands, the two bowed to the tombstone together, then gently patted the dirt off their knees, turned and left.

Zhou Chengren waited all the time, and when he saw the two people approaching, he didn't make a sound, but followed quietly.

Turning around by chance, Zhou Chengren glanced at Zhao's cemetery. He always felt that this area seemed very warm...

The carriage left the foot of the mountain and headed back to the palace. After all, it came out in secret, so there was no guarantee that no one would look for them.

On the way back, Emperor Chen's heart relaxed a lot, as if he let go of many things at once.

"How did you think of saying those words?" Turning to look at Su Qingning, the emperor asked.

"The concubine also thought of it by accident. Now that the concubine is a mother, she knows how much a mother cares about her children. Mrs. Zhao gave birth to the emperor and passed away. She must miss the emperor very much in her heart."

"After so many years, she must want to know how the emperor is doing and how he is doing? Although you are the emperor, the life of the emperor is not easy."

"So, my concubine told Mrs. Zhao everything she knew. Apart from yours, there are also concubines. She has to know what kind of woman is with her son?"

"They all said that they were relatives in the next generation, and the concubine specifically mentioned the children to let Madam Zhao know that she has two grandchildren who look the same, and they are all fine now!"

Smiling and speaking, Su Qingning spoke her own thoughts, and after hearing him finish, Emperor Chen stretched out his hand and embraced her in his arms.

"Ningning, thank you for saying so much for me." If it wasn't for Su Qingning, maybe he wouldn't be so relaxed at this moment.

Although he grew up beside the Empress Dowager when he was young, but since he can remember, he has never felt the love from the Empress Dowager.

All along, the queen mother has not treated him very well. At that time, he thought that the queen mother wanted him to become a talent, so she strictly demanded him.

But when he saw the queen mother's attitude towards Xuanyuan Qi, he was shaken in his heart, and he didn't know that everything was not what he thought until the bowl of poison was delivered to him.

He didn't believe that there was such a cruel mother in this world. After investigation, he found out that she was not his biological mother, so it was no wonder that she was like this.

Fortunately, the queen mother didn't like him, but the first emperor liked him very much. He was made the crown prince. He still remembered that before the first emperor passed away, he must treat the queen mother well.

In fact, he has always known everything, probably, everyone is just pawns in his eyes.

It's also a good thing that the Queen Mother doesn't like him, otherwise, he might not be able to become the emperor, and the previous emperor would not allow someone who had a heart for the Chu family to become the emperor.

Because of this, for so many years, no matter what the Queen Mother did, he tried to tolerate her.

If it wasn't for this time, the queen mother helped Xuanyuanqi to plot rebellion and killed her own child, he would probably turn a blind eye.
