Chapter 723: The Empress Dowager Arrives

Chen Kaizhi was surprised.

That's like this?

Empress Dowager Mu then looked at Chen Kaizhi kindly: "You are Chen Kaizhi, and that Wuji..."

She seemed to gradually accept the reality. Then, Empress Dowager Mu's expression moved slightly, and she was silent for a moment before looking at Chen Kaizhi with a smile on her face, then looked at Chen Yixing, and asked lightly: "Sit down, you guys, you already knew about these things, have you?"

At this time, Empress Dowager Mu was surprisingly calm. She seemed to be deliberately suppressing her mood. She took a deep breath and then said seriously: "Originally, you wanted to continue hiding it, but the Empress Dowager suddenly revealed a Wuji, which forced you to act quickly now, right?"

Chen Kaizhi naturally did not hide it, but began without hesitation and said: "Yes. Mr. Zhu and I know this."

Queen Mother Mu nodded at Chen Kaizhi: "Yes, the situation is so strange, you didn't dare to say it back then. In fact... the Ai family had known that you would be the son of the Ai family."

Chen Kai was shocked, his eyes widened slightly, and he looked at Empress Dowager Mu incredible, with the corners of his mouth trembling slightly, and he actually started to stammer: "Is it...?"

Queen Mother Mu seemed to be calm. The reason why she was so calm was because she had been mentally prepared for a long time. However, when things came to an end, countless emotions still surged into her heart. She looked at Chen Kaizhi who was close to her and then smiled bitterly: "What the Ai family thought about day and night is today, but you have also seen it. Now the doors and windows here are all open. Now it is an extraordinary time. Even if you want to cry and laugh at this time, you have to hold it in your arms."

She then looked at Chen Kaizhi: "The secret of this matter is not leaked, that's good. Now that Wuji is about to appear, this...is not a good thing. With Wuji's appearance, the court and the country will be in chaos. At that time, we, mother and son, watched the fire from the other side of the river, wanted to see what tricks this Wuji wanted to play, and what ideas did the Empress Dowager have. As for King Zhao and others, they will definitely have some action. You can take advantage of the opportunity to manage your Jinyiwei and Warriors camp and prepare for war."

A glimmer of hope seemed to pass through Queen Mother Mu's eyes, and she held Chen Kaizhi's hand.

Chen Kaizhi felt a warm feeling in his hand, and couldn't help but turn around to Queen Mother Mu's hand and nodded solemnly at her.

Empress Dowager Mu smiled with tears in her eyes: "The Ai family has been waiting for this day for a long time, but when you are close, the Ai family is surprisingly calm. Do you know why? Because your father still has his will and needs you to complete it. Now, there is an emperor in the court, but in the heart of the Ai family, only the dragon of the Ai family can rule the world. Therefore... the Ai family and you must endure it. When one day you ascend to the great treasure, it will be the time when we mother and son exclaim."

Chen Kaizhi felt mixed emotions and couldn't help but blurted out: "I..."

"It's a son." Empress Dowager Mu looked at Chen Kaizhi lovingly and corrected him.

Chen Kaiyi had not adapted to it yet. Seeing Empress Dowager Mu showed a gentle smile at her, he couldn't help but nod: "My son also knows that the future path is extremely difficult and I'm afraid..."

Queen Mother Mu narrowed her eyes and looked at the scenery outside the window frame. Then she seemed to have made up her mind and said word by word: "Don't be afraid, the Empress Dowager is extremely cunning. Do you know that since the Empress Dowager arrived in Luoyang, the Ai family has been disguising it? Over the past year, the Ai family has followed each other in front of the Empress Dowager, in order to reduce her defense. What she relies on is not only the guards of Guanzhong, but also the medieval families, but the rest of the strength has not been exposed. Therefore, the Ai family is very afraid of her. This time, she revealed a Wuji, obviously, she is preparing to reveal her true form."

As she said that, she turned her eyes back and placed them on Chen Kaizhi.

"As for King Zhao, the ones who are leaning against him are just some generals and sect kings outside. Don't be aware that he always endures in front of the Empress Dowager and dare not offend him, but the Ai family knows that the reason why he dares not fight back is because time is with him."

When Chen Kaizhi heard this, he couldn't help but nodded: "Yes, the son of King Zhao is already the emperor, so he can wait patiently. After a few years, when the emperor becomes a man, then all threats will be no problem. Therefore, the Empress Dowager scolded him and made him think about his mistakes behind closed doors. Even the mother took the opportunity to ask King Liang to replace his regent. In his opinion, if these things are tolerated, the sky will be wide."

"But next..." Empress Dowager Mu smiled: "Next, King Zhao will not bear it anymore. With Wuji, time may not be with him. So, next, you, Uncle Wang, dare to act really."

No need to think about it, I know that King Zhao must be anxious and will definitely take action.

Chen Kaizhi nodded to Queen Mother Mu, suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help but ask, "What about the mother's queen? What is the weight of the mother's queen?"

"The Ai family is also enduring." Empress Dowager Mu smiled: "There are not many families in the Ai family who have become powerful, but finally there is a brother who has mastered the imperial guards. This is the capital of the Ai family to control the palace, but that is not enough. However, you have a few cousins ​​who have some prospects and are all outside. The reason why the Ai family is tolerant is because... waiting for you!"

A hint of joy flashed through Queen Mother's eyes and said with a smile: "The Ai family had no son and a woman before. What's the point of fighting for these? So the Ai family has been sending people to find you, and fortunately, there is some news." Queen Mother Mu looked at Chen Kaiyi's eyes deeply, her eyes turned red, she pursed her lips, and said excitedly: "What you have to do now is to be patient for a while, wait a little longer, and wait until Wuji enters the city."

Chen Kaizhi couldn't help but say, "When will Wuji enter the city?"

Queen Mother Mu said lightly: "Early early this morning, the memorial flew into the palace like snowflakes. I think it was only in the past few days that the Queen Mother would go down the slope..."

As he was speaking, Zhang Jing suddenly stepped in and said, "Empress, the Empress Dowager is here."

The Empress Dowager arrived...

Normally, it is impossible for the Empress Dowager to come to Kunning Palace. After all, she is the elder and Empress Dowager Mu is a junior. Even if she wants to see Empress Dowager Mu, it should be Empress Dowager Mu to come and greet her.

Queen Mother Mu's face was solemn, a hint of hesitation flashed through her eyes, and she patted Chen Kaizhi's back of her hand, lowered her voice, and said with a very fast speed: "The news from the palace, the Ai family will find a way to convey to you at any time, you don't have to be afraid. From today on, no one can say anything before you have the capital to seize the door."

Chen Kaizhi took a deep breath and pointed at Empress Dowager Mu Zheng: "My son understand."

Queen Mother Mu restrained the wetness in the corner of her eyes and couldn't help but smile: "You understand the natural way of Ai's family, otherwise you wouldn't have today."

She looked at Chen Kaiyi deeply: "Mother is coming...go to pick her up."

Chen Kaizhi nodded, and the three of them stood up and left the bedroom. Sure enough, the front was covered with yellow clouds, and the Empress Dowager was supported by the eldest princess, and the eunuchs and female officials behind him were flowing.

Queen Mother Mu slowly stepped forward: "My son has seen Mother Queen, Mother Queen, why are you here today? In this cold day, Mother Queen left the warm house, I am afraid it will be cold."

The Empress Dowager's hand was gently placed on the palm of the eldest princess's hand, and took two steps forward. Her eyes were slightly narrowed, and she looked at Empress Dowager Mu. Then the corners of her mouth curled slightly, revealing a smile: "No need to be polite, the Ai family is thinking of you, so they want to come and meet you. Why, Chen Kaizhi and Prince Jing are there?"

Chen Yixing and Chen Kaizhi bowed: "I have met the Empress Dowager."

Chen Kaizhi felt a little nervous. He and Prince Jing came, and the Empress Dowager arrived immediately. Could it be that he really had a sound from the wall? What kind of news did she receive?

If it is exposed, then... the Empress Dowager already has a prince Wuji, how can she tolerate it? There is still a "prince" in this world.

Now is a critical period, and if there is a slight mistake, it will be a disaster.

The Empress Dowager smiled and said kindly to Chen Kaizhi: "Yesterday, the Ai family remembered that King Jing was talking about asking Chen Kaizhi to come to the palace to deliver piano scores. Among our royal family, the only one who has both literary and military affairs is the most talented. This is the Qilin son of the Chen family."

Queen Mother Mu's heart tightened and her hands hidden in her cuffs tightly held each other. The three words "Qilin Son" seemed to have a unique meaning.

Chen Kaizhi's expression was as usual: "The Empress Dowager's words are too heavy. Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are just things for self-entertainment. If you are obsessed with this, you will inevitably lose your ambitions..."

"Okay, okay...you keep being modest, go and talk inside." The Empress Dowager pointed to the bedroom, and then said to the eldest princess Chen Yue'e beside her: "It just so happens that I have something to look for you in the Ai family."

As he said that, everyone gathered into the bedroom.

The book was collected by Queen Mother Mu, but the Empress Dowager sat behind Queen Mother Mu’s desk just now, picked up a piece of piano score on the desk and said, “Actually, the Ai family loved to listen to music in the early years. Unfortunately, the qualifications were mediocre, and I couldn’t tell why. Kaizhi, the eldest princess entered the palace today, and she was apologizing to you.”

There was a family matter in the beginning, but after the conversation changed, it turned out to be the eldest princess.

Chen Kaizhi was calm and composed, but found that his mother, Empress Mu, seemed a little unnatural, so he smiled: "I don't dare."

"No." The Empress Dowager said seriously: "The Princess's Mansion has indeed collided with you. It is natural to ask her to accompany you." The Empress Dowager said immediately: "But after all, you are all the Chen family and you are your own people, so don't worry about it anymore."

Chen Kaizhi smiled: "Yes, my son will never dare to add a blame to the eldest princess." As he said that, he saluted the eldest princess: "Your Highness, if you have any offense before, I hope he will forgive me."

Chen Yue'e only nodded at Chen Kaizhi.

Obviously, the Emperor and the Emperor were not just this intention, but Chen Kaizhi seemed not in a hurry, and he was waiting.
