Fengming Chen Palace

Chapter 713
What the emperor said was nothing but Mrs. Lin's business.

In fact, many ministers in the court knew that the emperor was not the empress dowager's own.

It's just that this is what happened in the past, and in the past so many years, the emperor will be prosperous and governed very well, so no one mentions this matter.

Unexpectedly, the emperor himself brought it up now.

"The Lin family is my biological mother. The night before yesterday, I had a dream about the late emperor. He asked me why he didn't justify my biological mother's name."

"Back then, the Chu family's power in the court was unmatched. Even though I knew that my biological mother was not the Empress Dowager Chu, I respected her very much because she was the royal father's wife."

"But I didn't expect that the Chu family's ambitions, together with Xuanyuan Qi's rebellion, ended up like this. Queen Mother Chu has passed away for many years. I thought, it's time to rectify the name of my biological mother."

"What's more, I also got permission from my father, so I plan to move Lin's body into the imperial mausoleum and honor him as the empress dowager."

His eyes flicked over everyone, and the Emperor Chen spoke slowly. The courtiers had no objection to this.

There is no need to go now, besides, Daxing always pays attention to filial piety, the emperor wants to respect his biological mother, no one can say anything.

"It was only recently that I learned that my biological mother also has a younger sister in the palace, who is Nanny Chen in the Queen's Palace. Although they are biological sisters, they have different surnames."

"One took his father's surname, and the other took his mother's surname. No matter what, I found my aunt, and I was very happy. I specially named her Mrs. Yipin."

When Emperor Chen said so, everyone knew that the real reason for conferring Nanny Chen as Yipin's wife was that the empress had invited her to confer the real reason.

"If you have no objection, I will order Qin Tianjian to choose an auspicious day for my biological mother to move into the imperial mausoleum."

"My emperor is holy, long live, long live, long live." The officials quickly knelt down and saluted the emperor. From this, the matter of Lin's pursuit of respect and relocation to the mausoleum was completely settled.

When the news spread to the harem, everyone who heard about it was very surprised. They did not expect that Nanny Chen had such an identity.

While being surprised, they were also a little uneasy, wondering if they had offended her in the past.

Nanny Chen is in Fengyang Palace, even though she is named a first-class wife, she still lives in Fengyang Palace.

The news of honoring Lin as the Queen Mother soon reached her ears.

The moment she heard the news, Nanny Chen burst into tears. For her, at this point, even if she died, she would die in peace.

…………

On the day Empress Dowager Lin moved into the Imperial Mausoleum, Nanny Chen was in excellent spirits, which made Su Qingning very worried.

She once asked the imperial physician, although the imperial physician said that with careful care, Nanny Chen's body could last for two or three years, but she was still very worried.

After all, today's Nanny Chen looks more like a flashback.

Things were just as Su Qingning thought, in the evening, Nanny Chen's spirit began to weaken.

After dinner, the palace servants reported back and forth anxiously, saying that Nanny Chen was dying.

Su Qingning and Emperor Chen hurried to the side hall, and sent someone to invite the imperial physician.

At this time, Nanny Chen's sanity was not clear enough, and she was muttering, not knowing what to say.

The imperial physician came quickly, and after taking the pulse, he bowed to the empress, "Report to the emperor, empress, Mrs. Chen...I'm afraid it won't work."

The imperial doctor was also very surprised. Judging from the previous situation, it was clear that there would be no problem after two or three years. How could it develop so fast?

How could he have imagined that, because Lin's being posthumously made Mother Chen very happy, when her mood was ups and downs, she felt that she had nothing to worry about from now on.

Originally, she was still thinking about the children, but suddenly felt that if she had no more worries, her body would not be able to hold on any longer. That's why she became like this.

After hearing what the imperial physician said, both Emperor Chen and Su Qingning were very sad, especially Emperor Chen, who even blamed himself for letting her know the news that Queen Mother Lin was pursued.

If she didn't know, maybe she wouldn't feel that there was nothing to worry about, and she wouldn't be exhausted because of this.

"Your Majesty, don't blame yourself. If you know that you think so, Nanny Chen will be very sad."

Su Qingning wiped away her tears, and tried to persuade Emperor Chen. She looked towards the bed. At this moment, Nanny Chen was mumbling with her eyes open.

Leaning close to her mouth, Su Qingning listened carefully, some could not hear clearly, some could understand, probably calling the Emperor's baby name.

Knowing her like this, Emperor Chen's tears finally fell. He held Nanny Chen's hand and kept calling for his aunt.

As if feeling something, Nanny Chen also held Emperor Chen's hand, her expression gradually calmed down, although she was still muttering, she was not as anxious as before.

At the moment before Nanny Chen died, the children were also there.

They no longer called her Nanny Chen, but their aunt and grandmother. They all knew that Nanny Chen was not a palace official, but their elder.

When the child was approaching, Nanny Chen finally swallowed her last breath. When she left, she looked very peaceful.

Emperor Chen and Su Qingning were very sad, but the dead are gone, and the living must continue.

Grandma Chen's funeral was handled in a grand manner. If the imperial physician hadn't taken care of her carefully, Emperor Chen would have suffered another serious illness.

Nowadays, most of the affairs of the court are entrusted to the little princess, the second prince and her companions to assist her in handling various affairs.

Most of the time, Emperor Chen was in Fengyang Palace. Seeing that he was not in good spirits due to the death of Nanny Chen, Su Qingning proposed to live outside the palace for a while.

After the emperor thought about it, he agreed with her, and the two left the palace and moved to the capital, where the emperor had already sent someone to buy a house.

Probably because of leaving the palace, Emperor Chen's spirit gradually improved a lot, and Su Qingning was relieved a lot.

Although the court affairs were handled by the little princess, she handled them very well. The courtiers recognized the little princess's ability very much.

Originally thought that a woman would be inferior to a man if she was the heir apparent or the emperor, but she never expected that the little princess was no less than anyone else in any aspect.

As autumn went to winter and the weather gradually became colder, Emperor Chen and Su Qingning moved back to the palace.

Most of the time, the little princess still handles everything. She even presides over the court. With Zhou Chengren around, she can help the little princess a lot.

The emperor took care of his body with peace of mind, because he didn't need to worry too much, his physical condition has improved a lot.

These days, he helped Su Qingning and Concubine Hui plan the eldest princess's wedding.

Although Nanny Chen is gone and is the emperor's aunt again, in the end, compared with the queen mother, she is still far behind. The eldest princess does not need to keep filial piety for her.

As for Xie Junyan, no matter it was the emperor, Su Qingning or Concubine Hui, they were all very satisfied. After Concubine Hui talked with Mrs. Xie, she ordered him to match her horoscope.

The horoscope of the eldest princess and Xie Junyan is that they are going to be married. Concubine Hui plans to completely settle the marriage of the eldest princess before the new year.
