Chapter 911 Meeting the Empress Dowager
When the little emperor saw Murong Jie and his wife, he met them as a ceremony to meet his parents, knelt down and kowtowed three times.
Murong Jie stretched out his hand to help him up, and said earnestly: "This salute is irreplaceable, you are the emperor now, and speaking of it, it should be this king who salutes you."
"No," the little emperor had deep admiration in his eyes, "My life was saved by the emperor's uncle and aunt, and this throne was also won for me by the emperor's uncle. The grace of rebirth is like my biological parents. What's wrong with kneeling and kowtowing?"
"Nonsense." Murong Jie reprimanded, "To be an emperor, you have to look like an emperor."
"I didn't salute you in front of the ministers, but I kowtow to you when no one is around." The little emperor looked at the two treasures that Zian was leading, and was very happy, "My younger brother and sister."
Zi'an smiled, "Go and meet the emperor's brother."
Before entering the palace, I taught them a lesson, and the two treasures had high comprehension skills. After hearing Zi'an's order, they both stepped forward and shouted: "Emperor brother!"
"Okay, it sounds nice, let's call again!" The little emperor was overjoyed.
"Brother Emperor!"
The two treasures yelled again, the brats all know that when their parents call them to address people, they will always get something delicious, at least, this is the case when they came back yesterday and this morning, especially grandma, who yells and candy , I woke up for about half an hour today, and my cheeks were sore from eating.
After all, the emperor was a half-grown child. Seeing such smart and cute younger siblings, he became very playful and wanted to take them out to play.
Murong Jie naturally followed, and as soon as he left the palace, someone came from the Fushou Palace, saying that the Empress Dowager wanted to invite the Wang Concubine to come over.
The Empress Dowager seldom goes out of Fushou Palace now. Ever since Murong Jie left the capital, she has been ill for a while. He fell down the stairs and was seriously injured. He could hardly move his left side, nor his left leg, so he could only lie down in the palace.
Yesterday, she heard that Zi'an was found and that the couple was coming back. She had been ordering someone to keep an eye on her, and when she learned that Zi'an had entered the palace, she hurriedly asked someone to invite her.
Zi'an hadn't seen the Empress Dowager for more than two years. In the early winter weather, she was half lying on the imperial concubine's couch, wearing a white fox fur with gold trim, and a falling horse bun. Her hair was full of pearls and emeralds.
She must have dressed up deliberately, with a thick layer of makeup on her face to cover up her pale complexion. She is a little fatter than before, or rounder.
Seeing Zian, she smiled slightly, with an amiable attitude, "Seeing you come back, Aijia is very happy."
Zi An Fushen, "See the Empress Dowager."
The Empress Dowager smiled and waved her hands, "Come on, what are you doing with all these vain rituals between sisters-in-law? Come and sit down!"
After finishing speaking, she patted the place beside her.
Zian didn't go over, but sat on the chair next to him, "How is the Empress Dowager?"
The empress dowager's eyes dimmed, and she sighed, "It was better two years ago, but since King Liang got married, it has been getting worse day by day. The family said at the time that the Ai family's birthday is that month, and there will be good days if you move two months later, and choose a good day to get married, but you don't believe it, which makes Ai's family like this. I haven’t come back until now, and I want to ask them to go to the temple to pray for Ai’s family, and I don’t know how long I have to wait.”
Hearing that she was full of resentment, Zi'an seemed to feel that his poor health was due to the fact that King Liang didn't choose a good marriage date, so he rushed at her.
Zi'an pursed his lips and smiled indifferently, "Empress Dowager, take care!"
Seeing her appearance, the empress dowager sighed softly, "Are you still concerned about the past? It's all over, and Aijia didn't take it to heart."
Zian was startled slightly, his eyes locked on her, didn't she take it to heart?
"Yeah, you are kind to the Ai family and the emperor, and the Ai family remembers it, so the Ai family didn't want to care about it when you reprimanded the Ai family, and you don't remember it anymore. It's all over, so don't take it to heart gone."
It turned out that it was about scolding her outside Xiwei Palace, Zi'an sneered.
It's swollen, now that she is the empress dowager, what she did wrong in the past has become a matter of course, and even the wrong is someone else's.
The empress dowager said to herself: "The Ai family heard that the emperor made your daughter a princess and your son a prince. The emperor made an exception and violated the ancestral system, but the Ai family agreed with him. To do this, one must know how to think of the source when drinking water, which Aijia has always taught him.”
Zian didn't speak, just looked at her with cold eyes.
Seeing her like this, the empress dowager felt a little uncomfortable, and her momentum became weaker, "Zian, I called you here because I want you to see Aijia. The imperial doctor said that this side of Aijia's body will not be able to move in the future. You are very skilled in medicine. The royal doctor can't cure it, but you can cure it, can't you?"
Zian smiled lightly, "I don't know? I'm not very smart, at least, someone took my hair and used it to do magic, didn't I not realize it?"
The empress dowager looked at her fixedly, a little angry, "What are you talking about? Aren't you doing well now? Or are you saying that you are not doing well now? The Ai family sees that you are doing well."
Zi An breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, very good. I am very happy now. I have a couple of children by my side, and my husband treats me well. I have a good reputation both in the court and among the people. I can give I am very happy to have my sons and daughters as role models."
"Then you have to..."
Before Concubine Mei could finish speaking, Zi'an interrupted her coldly, "But, before this, do you know what kind of life I lived with Lao Qi?"
The empress dowager was startled, and her momentum weakened again, "That's all in the past."
"It's over, but some grievances can't be over. The lesson you taught me at least made me understand that some people are not worth treating her well, because you don't know when she will bite you back, and she doesn't feel guilty at all." On the contrary, she is confident and confident, because she is the empress dowager now, aloof, and what everyone has done for her is taken for granted by her."
"You... Ai's family didn't mean that. You are a doctor. Wu Yanzu came to show Ai's family. Wu Yanzu said that you are a doctor. If you were here, you would treat any patient, even the treacherous and evil. Ai The family did some things wrong, but it’s harmless, isn’t it? You came back in good health, and the relationship between you and your husband will be stronger than before after going through this catastrophe. You have more than Aijia. What else can you not let go of? ? Do you want to cling to the little grievances in the past? That's all in the past."
Zi'an shook his head, "Everything has its effect and its cause. Up to now, you are still blaming this one and that one, and the king of Liang committed crimes against you? Just kidding, Lao Qi and I have to be grateful? Even if we should be grateful, it's not to be grateful to you , God has the virtue of good life, you can do it yourself, maybe, if you do more good things, God will take pity on you and send you a good doctor.
After Zian finished speaking, he got up and left.
"Wait a minute!" The Empress Dowager raised her hands and shouted hastily.
