Chapter 339: Talking to the Holy Lord Late at Night
"Why don't you let everyone know? Do you have to go and invite the mourning family in person? When he saw the Phantom Lotus in front of him covering her mouth and staring at her with an unbelievable look on her face, Yanyu asked with a pretended seriousness.
"Ah...... The Empress Dowager atoned for her sins, and her subordinates went to inform everyone. When Phantom Lotus heard Yanyu ask this, she also knew that she was a little rude because she was too surprised and surprised, and quickly replied apologetically.
Then the other palace maids and royal guards who had come to their senses dispersed one after another to inform the other palace maids and guards.
Not long after, the palace maids and guards who knelt neatly on the ground in the garden at the gate shouted in unison: "My subordinates pay a visit to the goddess Empress Dowager, may the goddess Empress Dowager be blessed and safe." ”
"Get up, the mourning family gathered everyone today to tell you two things. The first thing is that the mourning family has been trapped in the underground world for a year, and today they are finally back. I would like to express my deep gratitude to everyone for sticking to their posts and guarding the goddess palace during the disappearance of the mourning family. The second thing is to tell everyone that although the mourning family has returned, the next time will require a long-term retreat in the secret room to practice, and it is generally not easy to appear. Unless something major happens in the Goddess Palace or the Imperial Palace, it will come forward to deal with it. Therefore, the mourning family hopes that everyone will remain tight-lipped to the outside world, except for the saint mourning family will tell him personally, the people in other palaces and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, the mourning family does not want them to know the news of the mourning family's return to the palace. Did you hear me clearly? Yanyu said solemnly.
"The subordinates obey the decree of the Empress Dowager. Please rest assured that the Queen Mother. Including the Phantom Lotus, all the staff of the Goddess Palace replied in unison.
"Well, considering that everyone has never seen their family since they entered the palace, it is relatively boring to guard this goddess palace all day long, and they often miss their families. Therefore, the mourning family will be blessed with saints, and everyone is allowed to take turns to go out of the palace to accompany their families three days a month to relieve everyone's lovesickness. I hope that everyone will cherish these three days and be filial to their parents, and after returning to the palace, they can do their own work in peace, maintain the image of the goddess palace in the palace, and let the mourning family retreat and practice with peace of mind. Do you understand? Yanyu said in an unquestioning tone.
"Thank you for the grace of the Queen Mother, and my subordinates will never live up to the Queen Mother's entrustment." The crowd shouted in unison again.
After speaking, everyone also looked at each other with joy, obviously grateful for the decision of the Queen Mother to allow everyone to go home to accompany their parents for three days a month.
"Well, you all disperse, Phantom Lian stayed to accompany the mourning family to the study." Yanyu nodded with satisfaction and said.
"Yes, Empress Dowager." The palace ladies and royal guards replied respectfully, and after saying that, they dispersed one after another.
"The Empress Dowager, can your subordinates help you go to the study?" After seeing that everyone had dispersed, Phantom Lotus came to Yanyu's side and asked respectfully.
"Phantom Lotus, the mourning family has too much to say to you. By the way, just go back to the study by yourself, you go to the kitchen to cook some light and refreshing meals for the mourning family, and send it as soon as possible, the mourning family is a little hungry. Yanyu looked at Phantom Lotus and said with some emotion.
Suddenly remembering that she hadn't eaten for a day, she hurriedly asked Phantom Lian to go to the kitchen to prepare her meal first.
"Yes, the Empress Dowager, my subordinates will deliver the food to the study as soon as possible." Phantom Lian hurriedly agreed, then turned around and rushed to the kitchen to arrange meals.
Then, Yanyu walked thoughtfully towards the study......
Not long after Yanyu returned to the study, Phantom Lian came back with a food box, obviously Phantom Lian was also worried that Yanyu was hungry and her body was broken, so she went back quickly.
Maybe Yanyu was really hungry, looking at the delicious meal that Phantom Lotus carefully prepared for her, she also had a great appetite, and she didn't care about catching up with Phantom Lotus, so she ate it in a big gulp.
During the Yanyu meal, Phantom Lian kept pouring tea for the Yanyu sleek vegetables, and did her best to serve the Yanyu meal.
In her heart, she is also full of joy for Yanyu's return, because Yanyu is not a simple goddess and queen mother in her heart, but the princess of the golden-crowned black-tailed frog clan, the master she cares about and respects the most, and the future heir of the golden-crowned black-tailed frog kingdom.
After the meal, Yanyu also drank tea, and told Phantom Lotus about what she had experienced in the past year, including how she spent every day when she returned to the General's Mansion, and even told Phantom Lotus about her previous experience in Yuefu.
The only thing that I couldn't tell Phantom Lotus was that she and Jun Buyu didn't meet, firstly, the matter of Jun Buyu being the Holy Monarch of the Immortal Kingdom was too amazing, and secondly, Yanyu hadn't figured out how to face Jun Buyu, who had temporarily lost the memory of the Immortal Kingdom, and didn't know how to resolve the mother-killing feud between her and Jun Buyu.
Although Yanyu always felt that she didn't kill the queen mother Nalan Qiqing, everything that happened at that time was so bizarre and strange that she still can't remember what happened.
There's no way to find out the truth, so she doesn't want to mention it to anyone until everything is clear.
Although he couldn't fully express the bitterness in his heart, Yanyu still felt much more comfortable after saying so many words to Xiang Huanlian.
This chat, unconsciously, passed three hours.
Seeing that it was getting late outside, Yanyu knew that he should leave the Goddess Palace, go and visit the saint quietly, and have a brief chat with the saint, and it was time to go back to the General's Mansion, otherwise his mother and grandfather should also be in a hurry.
According to Yanyu's understanding of the Holy Monarch's unrepentant understanding in the past, he knew that he was usually alone in the dormitory at this time to pray for blessings to the spirit card of the queen mother Nalan Qiqing.
Because Jun Wuregret really cares about Nalan Qiqing too much, so after a busy day every day, when he returns to the dormitory at this hour, he will retreat left and right, and face Nalan Qiqing's spirit card in the dormitory alone for a long time before going to bed.
Therefore, Yanyu knew that it was the most ideal time to meet at this time to visit Jun Wuregret, and there happened to be no outsiders.
When the Holy Emperor had no regrets in the dormitory alone in front of Nalan Qiqing's spirit card and fell into memory, he suddenly found that a figure slowly appeared around him, and when he retracted his thoughts and took a closer look at the masked goddess Empress Dowager, he was also overjoyed.
"The Empress Dowager? Is it really you? Jun Wuregret couldn't help but ask excitedly.
When he saw Yanyu nodding his head in acknowledgement and signaling him not to speak loudly, he also understood that the goddess Empress Dowager had come to visit secretly late at night, and she must not want outsiders to know about her visit, so she nodded knowingly, got up and saluted, and whispered respectfully: "Sun Er has seen the Empress Dowager." ”
"Holy Lord, don't need to be polite, get up quickly. By the way, the mourning family came this time to tell the saint that the mourning family had escaped safely from the underground world. The second is to inform the Holy Lord that the mourning family needs to retreat and cultivate for a long time, and during this period, I hope that His Majesty will not announce the news that the mourning family has returned to the palace for the time being. If there is something important in the saint that needs the help of the mourning family, you only need to send someone to secretly inform the mourning family's personal palace maid Phantom Lotus. The mourning family will come to meet each other. Yanyu helped Jun Wuregret up and said straight to the point.
Although Sun Er didn't understand the reason for the Empress Dowager's retreat and cultivation, Sun Er understood that all this must be a good thing for the future development of the Lotus Sheng Kingdom. Therefore, the grandson fully supported the decision of the Empress Dowager. will definitely be tight-lipped and will not leak the news of your return to the palace. In the future, as long as it is not a particularly major crisis, I will never easily disturb your cultivation. There is just one thing that Sun Er wants to report to you, that is, Sun Er decided to officially promulgate the Holy Decree tomorrow morning, announcing to the world that Sun Er will abdicate in a month, and the crown prince will not meet to inherit the throne. After that, the grandson will take the spirit card of the queen mother to travel around the world, and once the grandson fulfills the promise that the queen mother promised, that is, to take her all over the lotus country. Second, I also want to take a good break, and by the way, I will pay a private visit to the entire Liansheng Kingdom, secretly help the emperor not to meet and sort out the officials who are not in the imperial city, and eradicate those officials who have different intentions and ill intentions and plot to usurp the throne one by one, so as to continue to maintain the stability of the Liansheng Kingdom after not meeting the throne, so that the people of the world can have a country where they can live and work in peace and contentment. It can be regarded as the last thing that the grandson can do for the emperor. As for your retreat and cultivation, before your grandson leaves the palace, he will tell you that he will not meet him, and if he encounters something difficult to solve in the future, he will personally ask you for advice. When the time comes, please ask the Queen Mother to give him more guidance. Jun said without regret and understandingly.
"The mourning family knows, you can rest assured to travel the world. The mourning family will do their best to help the new emperor not meet and defend the Lotus Kingdom. Moreover, in the future, after the completion of the retreat and cultivation of the Mourning Family, it cannot be ruled out that the Mourning Family will build the Lotus Kingdom into a new Lotus Immortal Kingdom to benefit the people of the world, and when you come back one day in the future, it is not impossible to see a new Lotus Kingdom. Yanyu solemnly agreed.
"Lotus Immortal Kingdom? Good! Good! That's great! The grandson thanked the Queen Mother for her hard work for the people of the world. I also wish the Empress Dowager in advance to get her wish as soon as possible. Jun Wuregret said with great surprise.
"Then it is a good word to the Holy Lord, it is too late at this moment, and the mourning family will go back to retreat and cultivate. The saint should also rest early, it is important to take care of the dragon body. Seeing that it was too late, Yanyu got up and took his leave.
"Grandson knows, grandson sends the Empress Dowager." Jun Wuregret hurriedly got up and said respectfully.
Then, under the gaze of Jun Wuregret, the figure of the goddess and the empress dowager slowly disappeared again.
It didn't take long for Yanyu to return to the gate of the General's Mansion, although the night was very dark, but the General's Mansion was still brightly lit, obviously considering that Yanyu had not come back yet, Yuan Xunshuang and Yuan Feng were still waiting for her to come back safely.
In addition to being moved, Yanyu once again took off the mask of the goddess and the empress dowager, restored her original appearance, and knocked on the door.
The reason why Yanyu didn't directly use the ability of the goddess Empress Dowager and returned to the Great General's Mansion unconsciously was because she didn't want to expose the secret that she was the Divine Empress Dowager in front of other subordinates in the Great General's Mansion.
Her special identity is limited to her mother and grandfather, lest too many people know, it will be easy to leak the news, and then it may bring disaster to the General's Mansion.
When the door opened, Yanyu followed the housekeeper Zhongbo to the front hall, and found that her grandfather and mother were waiting for her, but to her surprise, she saw that her father Yanwuhuo had also returned......
