Everyone didn't dare to gasp, quietly waiting for the arrival of the Empress Dowager.

Although it is autumn, but the sun in this day is still quite big, everyone has been standing at the gate of this palace since the morning, it has been standing for several hours, under the big sun, everyone is afraid to move, but the sun is uncomfortable, but they can only grit their teeth and endure desperately, just begging the queen mother to enter the palace gate quickly.

It's just that the Empress Dowager is also an old man, seventy-one years old, it is not easy to live a healthy life, it is impossible to move around as quickly as a young man, and everyone can only think about it.

But no matter how long I waited, after all, I was still coming towards the gate of the palace, but after a long time, the empress dowager finally arrived in front of the emperor: "Grandson, get up quickly, and so are the ministers, waiting outside the gate of this palace to mourn the family, I'm afraid I'm tired of waiting." ”

Where everyone dared to speak, they all accompanied the smiling faces and said "don't dare, don't dare", and hugged the empress dowager into the palace.

"Mother, the Empress Dowager is still alive!" Standing behind Princess Qingyang, Chen Junyue said cautiously but excitedly.

Today, the Empress Dowager returned to the palace, who in this palace dared not go out to greet her, Qingyang naturally took Chen Junyue to wait at the gate of this palace early. Originally, I was afraid that Yue'er would not be able to bear it after waiting for so long, so I didn't want to wait for it. It's just that this kid is too inattentive when he speaks, after all, the Empress Dowager is also her ancestor, how can she speak like this, she immediately lowered her face and said: "Don't say this kind of thing again, although the Empress Dowager is my grandmother, but she is only about to be seventy-one, this is a good sign of a long life, you are not allowed to say some nonsense." ”

Chen Junyue agreed with a smile, but looked left and right restlessly.

I stayed in the palace all this time, and the only concubines I saw in the palace were those eunuchs and maids, and the only foreign minister I saw was General Luo, but the sudden appearance of Ye Luheng had already made Chen Junyue forget all the previous things. Now that I have encountered such a big scene, I am naturally curious and want to see more.

But now this scene is so serious, even the current emperor doesn't dare to speak loudly, Chen Junyue naturally doesn't dare to be presumptuous, just looks around with a pair of big eyes, trying to find something interesting.

But it's a pity that in such a serious scene, where can anything funny be allowed, even if something happens, you have to keep your mouth closed at the moment and not say much. Naturally, Chen Junyue could only see the tense faces of those ministers, and nothing else could be seen.

Chen Junyue wanted to talk to people, but in this atmosphere, what he had to say could only be put in his heart, and a group of people surrounded the Empress Dowager into the palace.

The Empress Dowager has not returned to the palace for many years, even the New Year is spent in the summer resort, this time back, naturally to catch up with these people in the palace.

said that it was a reminiscence, but in fact, it was just a look at these yellow sons and grandsons.

Chen Junyue's mother was born by the Queen Mother, so she naturally wanted to stay, as Qingyang's only daughter, of course that Yue'er couldn't run away, so she could only obediently follow Qingyang to stay in this Zhaohua Palace.

Zhaohua Palace is the place where the Empress Dowager lived when she was still the queen, and later although she was the Empress Dowager, she refused to move to Cining Palace, and she never came to Jing Qianyun's enthronement ceremony, so Cining Palace naturally let the Empress Dowager live, as for the Empress Dowager, because she did not return to the palace for a long time, everyone did not care much.

Fortunately, the Empress Dowager doesn't care about this, after all, she is still used to living in Zhaohua Palace, so why care about these little things. The Empress Dowager, who was supported and sat on the couch, although she was over seventy years old, but still in good spirits, said: "Your Majesty, send the mourning family in, and you will go and get busy, and it is not a matter for those civil and military officials to stay in this palace." Just chat with the queen mother and grandchildren. ”

Jing Qianyun was also happy and relaxed, so she took the order to go down, and in this Zhaohua Palace, only these princes and princesses, as well as the princesses of the same generation as Qingyang.

It's not that the concubines in Jing Qianyun's harem don't want to follow the light, it's just that there are not many concubines in his harem, and there are not a few who are favored, plus he has basically never seen the Queen Mother, and there is no way to talk about it, so naturally he retired after inviting An, and the rest of these people who are quite familiar with the Queen Mother stay, compared to the Queen Mother, it can also make the Queen Mother recall the past, and she will feel more comfortable.

"The mourning family only returned to the palace after eight years, I don't want to, but there are a lot fewer people to see." The Empress Dowager looked around and said.

Indeed, in the past eight years, the competition for the throne has caused many princes of the former emperor to die in the capital, and two have been exiled, and it is impossible to return to the palace. And those princesses, even if they are young, have been married one after another in the past eight years. Fortunately in the capital, those who are married a little farther away like Qingyang basically don't have time to go back to the palace, and this time the princess who returned to the palace like Qingyang is only five.

As for those princes, there are even fewer, including Jing Qianyun, there are only four princes in the palace at this time, except for King Shen of Ming, and there is only one youngest prince who is only twenty-two this year, King Liu.

The Empress Dowager sighed, and everyone dared not speak, even the Empress Dowager Xigong, who has always liked to be in the limelight, did not say anything. But the Empress Dowager just sighed, who would not know what was going on in this palace? It's just that I'm getting old now, so I just sighed.

The Empress Dowager herself also diverted the topic, and everyone chatted after a while.

In front of so many elders, especially in front of the Queen Mother who has never returned to the palace, each family naturally sends their children to the Queen Mother, and this time today, the reward is naturally indispensable, not to mention that the Queen Mother naturally has some precious things in her hands, and these married princesses naturally want it.

Although they are princesses, since they are married to the royal family, although the annual income is higher than that of their husbands, they have always been used to spending lavishly, and where can the family afford such expenses. Even if it is a more reasonable person like Qingyang, she is not used to marrying into the Chen family, but fortunately, the Chen family still has some family background, and she is the daughter of the queen, and the dowry is sufficient, and she has gradually adapted to it. As for the others, when they saw that there were good things, they were naturally red-eyed, and they only wanted to get the gold and silver as soon as possible, and go back to show off to those noble ladies.
