The Yan Mansion and the Hot Spring Palace are not far away. Seeing so many Southern troops stationed here, Yan Ming's heart felt much more stable.

What he had been worried about all along, the haunting demon gate. I'm afraid they'll come to the door. Looking at the current situation of the Southern Army, it should be that the Empress Dowager Dou is ready to stay on permanently.

If this is the case, the Yan family's security will be a little more. After all, the Southern Army is the escort army of the imperial family, and its combat power is also extremely fierce.

"Yan Ming is here." In the hot spring palace, Father-in-law Yang did not use the rhetoric of the palace to say that the Marquis of Maoling would meet him, but only said that he was coming. This set the tone for the audience.

It's a private meeting, not an official one.

"Let this little monkey come in, is it because of the hundred family banquets that everyone has forgotten about me, an old lady." Although the voice of the Empress Dowager Dou was old, it was full of energy.

Before Yan Ming entered the house, he shouted outside: "Ancestor, no one dares to forget you." ”

As he spoke, he walked in quickly with a smile on his face.

There are no more high chairs in the main hall of the Empress Dowager Dou, but they have all been replaced by rocking chairs made for him by Yan Ming.

Even Wang Huan, who had always been solemn, was already lying on the rocking chair, and when she saw Yan Ming coming in, she smiled slightly and motioned for him to sit down.

Yan Ming still greeted him respectfully in accordance with the rules of the royal family.

Empress Dowager Dou looked at him with a smile and kowtowed to greet him, and then said: "Little monkey, I have made such a great contribution at the border pass, I didn't expect to be so low-key when I came back, and I had a good future." ”

Yan Ming said with a smile: "It's not that the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager have taught well. ”

Wang Wan sneered and said, "Your mouth is just how to speak." ”

"But no, I just praised you a few words, and this little tail can't be clamped." Empress Dowager Dou also said with a smile.

Yan Ming simply relaxed his body, tilted his seat with a lazy look, and said, "Ancestor, Queen Mother, you don't know." It's too hard to pretend on the outside. I realized that I wasn't a master of big things. I'm not used to those etiquette constraints. Only here can you relax. ”

"If you say so, you are not afraid that the mourning family will judge you according to the rules of etiquette." Wang Wan said with a smile.

Yan Ming smiled and said: "In this hot spring palace, it is Yan Ming's second home, the Empress Dowager is as important as my grandmother in my heart, and the Empress Dowager is in my heart, that is my own mother." You also need manners here, so you can't let people live! ”

Seeing that Yan Ming was funny, the two most powerful evil women in the world covered their mouths and laughed.

"Okay, you seem to be doing well at the border pass, the man's bloody breath has not been honed, but his kung fu is very good." Wang Wan said with a smile.

Empress Dowager Dou also smiled, very happy.

Yan Ming thought about it secretly, and it was not too much to say that the Empress Dowager Dou was his grandmother. It is absolutely against his will to say that Wang Wan is his own mother.

But thousands of clothes are worn, and sycophants are not worn. This sentence seems to be very useful to Wang Huan.

This is cheap for his own Lao Tzu Yanshan. If Wang Wan is really his mother, isn't Yan Shan a little unclear with Wang Huan......

"Little monkey, although I heard about the war at the border pass, the mourning family still wants to hear it from your mouth and tell the mourning family about it." Empress Dowager Dou's words interrupted Yan Ming's filthy thoughts.

Yan Ming arched his hand and said respectfully: "That's the case, the war at the border pass ......"

This time, Yan Ming said in great detail. The old man just likes such detailed details. When they heard that Yan Ming went out to fight the Huns, Empress Dowager Dou and Wang Wan looked at Yan Ming in surprise.

They didn't expect that Yan Ming, who usually looks at the hanger, would be able to go out of the city to fight alone.

"If you don't go, you can't do it, the Huns insult the Han, if I don't go out, I will lose the face of the Han." Yan Ming said with a solemn and solemn expression.

These words moved the two women. Being able to value the face of a big man is more important than his own life, which is not something that ordinary people can do.

"You kid, you're just too real. I see that in the recital, you didn't mention anything about your own merits, but you talked about Wei Qing, Li Guang, and Cheng Buzhi. Wei Qing, I don't know, but Li Guangcheng doesn't know what it looks like, and the mourning family still understands a little. Do you want no credit for your own efforts in exalting them like this? Empress Dowager Dou said.

Yan Ming Zhengse said: "The bigger the official, the higher the title, and the greater the responsibility. Yan Ming has a stubborn temperament and likes to live an unrestrained life. If the official is really too big and the title is too high, then the responsibility will be greater, and I am afraid that I will not be able to bear it! So, don't take the credit. What's more, if the emperor hadn't given me a chance, how could I have those credits? ”

Empress Dowager Dou sighed and said, "That's it, the royal family is sorry for your child." ”

Wang Wan said: "There are really a few people in the world who think like you. Who doesn't covet power! ”

Yan Ming nodded and said, "Power, it is indeed a good thing. But once you have power, you lose your freedom. Everyone thinks that the emperor in the world is the best, because he has the supreme right in the world. But who saw what the emperor had endured? Natural and man-made disasters, the emperor has to worry about it. Big and small things have to be reported to the emperor, this kind of thing, others envy, if it falls on me for a day, I can't stand it! ”

Listening to what Yan Ming said, the two women were deeply touched.

Both of them came with the emperor, and they knew how tired the real emperor was. It's just that after a certain stage of life, you will really be fascinated by power.

Otherwise, Wang Wan would not have gone to great lengths to put Liu Che on the throne.

Now hearing Yan Ming's words, for a moment, Wang Wan was a little skeptical that what she did at that time was right.

But after thinking about it, Yan Ming said that he was not born in the state of the royal family.

And born in the royal family, if you don't strive to be the emperor, then you can only become an ordinary prince. Look at those princes, anyone who has a little ability will be brought down by the emperor, and those who are not capable will also be pulled down by the emperor with excuses.

Different living circumstances make different choices.

At this moment, Wang Wan suddenly felt that it was not a good thing to be born in the emperor's family.

Empress Dowager Dou also thought about Yan Ming's words, and had a deeper understanding of Yan Ming.

Without their worries, the two of them were naturally happier. The Han Dynasty has such a capable person as Yan Ming, which is the blessing of the Han Dynasty and the blessing of Liu Che.

Yan Ming said some interesting things about the borderland, which made the two women laugh.

The Empress Dowager Dou was very happy, and she wanted to leave Yan Ming and let him eat at the Hot Spring Palace at night.

When it came to eating, Yan Ming remembered the hundred family banquet in the evening, and he couldn't be absent at that time, and it seemed that this meal in the Hot Spring Palace was inedible. But you must explain it to the Empress Dowager Dou.
