Chapter 83
The moonlight was like water, pouring in the Compassion Palace.

In the bedroom, the Empress Dowager was dressed in a white tunic, with a dark green forehead on her head, lying on the sickbed with a pale face.

Nanny Chen served by her side, her eyes full of worry.

"His Majesty is here!"

Suddenly, the voice of the eunuch's notification sounded, and Madam Chen was startled, and hurriedly led the servants to kneel down and saluted: "Your Majesty, my servants, please see Your Majesty, Your Majesty is blessed and safe!"

As soon as the words were finished, Jin Yantang entered the hall with steady steps. His eyes were only on the empress dowager on the sick bed. To these palace maids, he only said three words indifferently: "Go out."

Fu Pu and Nanny Chen looked at each other, and there was a flash of surprise in their eyes, but they both obeyed Jin Yantang's words and led the maidservants out in a file.

Immediately, only the Queen Mother and Jin Yantang were left in the huge bedroom.

After coming to the bed and sitting down, Jin Yantang took a cup of hot tea in his hand, skimmed off the froth in the cup, and said to the Queen Mother indifferently: "Queen Mother, drink some water to moisten your throat."

Hearing his voice, the queen mother slowly opened her eyes.

She looked at Jin Yantang weakly, and said with a pale face, "Tang'er, you are here."

Jin Yantang nodded, put the hot tea aside, lowered his eyebrows and said: "Mother, you are not in good health, so don't put so much face powder on your face. After the pale color covers your original rosy complexion, Looked very haggard."

Immediately, the expression on the queen mother's face froze instantly, she moved her lips, wiped off her forehead, stared at him and said, "Why didn't your father see that you were so smart when he was alive?"

Jin Yantang sighed helplessly, helped her up and leaned against the back of the bed, and put a pillow on her back.

Afterwards, he said to the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother, you called your servants here late at night, do you have anything to say?"

The Queen Mother withdrew her gaze in a little embarrassment, and then said slowly: "The Ai family will not be beating around the bush with you anymore. The Ai family asks you, how do you plan to arrange Han'er's residence? Is it possible that she will live in such an unknown place in the future? In the palace?"

Jin Yantang's eyes flickered slightly, and upon hearing this, he became silent.

In the guest room of the Compassionate Ning Palace, Hongxiu happily said to Zhao Kehan: "Princess! Princess! Your Majesty has come to the Compassionate Ning Palace, right here in the Empress Dowager's bedroom!"

In the middle of the night, he came to the Empress Dowager's bedroom?

God help me too!
Zhao Kehan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said to Hongxiu: "Quickly, change clothes for this princess, and also, wrap up the Empress Dowager's Buddhist beads bracelet for me!"

"Yes! But ma'am, don't you need to dress up?"

Listening to Zhao Kehan's instructions, Hongxiu couldn't help asking with some doubts.

Zhao Kehan ​​glanced at himself in the mirror with a pale complexion and haggard look, and suddenly smiled, and said slowly: "This princess's plain face is the best makeup!"

Hongxiu didn't understand what she meant, but still acted according to Zhao Kehan's instructions, changed her into the usual red dress, and put on a simple jasper hairpin for her, and Zhao Kehan ​​held the Buddha bead bracelet alone Went to the Empress Dowager's bedroom.

Seeing that Jin Yantang was silent, the queen mother frowned, patted Jin Yantang's hand, and said, "Tang'er, the descendants of our Jin family can't be that ungrateful generation. If there was no Han'er back then, how could you live to this day? I have you in my heart, and Ai's family knows it, so you canonize her as a concubine, what does it matter?"

A look of impatience flashed in Jin Yantang's eyes, and he said: "Mother, you don't know who I like in my heart, and what I owe Han'er, I will naturally return it to her."

The queen mother listened, snorted coldly, shook off his hand and said: "You still only think about that concubine Chen in your heart. She is the daughter of the left prime minister. What should you do when you are in power?"

"Mother, you worry too much, I understand Zuo Xiang and Lan'er."

Jin Yantang trusts Shang Kelan, and also trusts Shang Chengyuan who has been assisting him.

The queen mother scolded: "You, you are just obsessed with obsession, and you are dazzled by the beauty of the concubine Chen!"

As she spoke, she stretched out her finger to Jin Yantang's forehead, with a hint of hatred that iron can't be made into steel.

While talking, the Empress Dowager coughed suddenly, as if her body was really uncomfortable.

Jin Yantang pursed his lips, picked up the hot tea on the side, skimmed off the foam on the tea for her, and handed the tea to the Empress Dowager.

The queen mother took a sip, calmed down, and then raised her eyes to look at Jin Yantang and said: "No matter what, the Ai family can't let Han'er stay in the harem with a dishonorable name. That's what the Ai family means, she must be yours." Your noble concubine! So, Han'er's love for you is not in vain."

For Zhao Kehan, the Queen Mother really did her best.

Thinking of Shang Kelan, Jin Yantang still shook his head, and said to the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother, I have already made plans for Han'er's whereabouts. Wen Shangshu of Meizhou has just been dismissed, so we can use Meizhou as Han'er's fiefdom and add Han'er He is the princess, and he is titled 'Jinyang'."

"Clap!"

Suddenly, there was the sound of something heavy falling to the ground beside the door, and a brocade box rolled in, and a string of small-leaf red sandalwood prayer beads fell out of it.

Both of them stared blankly, and looked at the person by the door at the same time.

But Zhao Kehan ​​was standing by the door, looking at the two of them in disbelief, there was a faint glimmer of water in his eyes, and the eye sockets turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Han'er?"

Jin Yantang frowned and called out in a low voice.

The queen mother didn't expect Zhao Kehan ​​to appear here at this time, she froze for a moment, the air became silent, and the atmosphere suddenly became slightly awkward.

The queen mother looked at Jin Yantang, then at Zhao Kehan, and then she broke the deadlock and asked Zhao Kehan ​​with a smile: "Han'er, what do you want to do here?"

When Zhao Kehan ​​heard this, she came back to her senses, she hurriedly lowered her head and wiped away her tears, then raised her head, forced a smile to the Queen Mother, and said, "Mrs... Queen Mother, I... the daughter of the people is here to return your bracelet .”

After saying this, as if she just realized it, she hurriedly squatted down on the ground, picked up the Buddhist bead bracelet, wiped it in her hand, carefully put it into the brocade box, and then put the brocade The box was handed to the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother paused, stretched out her hand to push the brocade box back to her, and said kindly with a smile: "Han'er, what are you doing?"

Zhao Kehan ​​stood in front of her, with his head bowed, his eyes flickering, feeling very wronged.

The queen mother glared at Jin Yantang, then pulled Zhao Kehan ​​to sit down beside her, and said, "Han'er, since you won this Buddhist bead bracelet from Ai's family at the lotus feast, you should keep it. I've been with Ai's family for several years, and I can bless you with the Buddha's spirit, and my wishes come true!"

She deliberately mentioned the four words that all wishes come true, but Zhao Kehan ​​was not very interested and was still very disappointed.

The empress dowager wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes distressedly, and said: "Sweetie, don't cry, what His Majesty said just now... did you hear it?"

Zhao Kehan ​​hesitated for a moment, lowered his eyelids, and nodded.
