Your Majesty Please Calm Down

Chapter 99:

In the confrontation with the empress dowager, Ji Heng showed an attitude of Non-Violence and uncooperative attitude. The Empress Dowager pointed out that her son had not been called his Harem for nearly half a year. She was very anxious and complained to Ji Heng.

Ji Heng really didnt want to make trouble with his own mother, so he had to explain patiently, there are some things I cant explain to you, mother. In short, Mr. Jis death was caused by me. I owe too much to his family.

It doesnt have to be her.

For you, to find a husband with a good family background is compensation, but for me, if I dont marry her, I will losing her. As I said today, I would rather lose the world than Ji Zhao.

You You pissed me off!

Mother, I only ask you one thing. What do you think of my comparison with my father?

Do you still need to say that? The Empress Dowager said coldly to her dead husband.

Do you think I will become a faint king who has been misled by beauty?

The Empress didnt answer. The answer is clearly no. Women treat their husbands and their sons with two attitudes. No matter how good their husbands are, they have countless shortcomings to choose from. No matter how bad their sons are, they are always perfect in her eyes. Objectively speaking, her son is brilliant and cant be controlled by women.

Empress mother, in your eyes, do you think Ji Zhao is a woman who flatters and bewilders the country?

Its hard for an Empress Dowager to answer such questions from an objective point of view. In fact, the Empress Dowager has privately compared Ji Zhao with the dead concubine countless times in private. The result is very inconsistent. Ji Zhao is not like that person at all. The Empress Dowager kept silent for a while and finally mentioned the person who made her most concerned. But what about Ruyi?

Ruyis mother is dead, and she will never live again. Why dont I find another mother for him? Ruyi likes Ji Zhao. Ji Zhao loves Ruyi very much. They are very close to each other. According to Buddhism, its the mother and son relationship that was cultivated in the previous life. The size of the Harem always makes you tired. Its better to have an Empress. You love ruyi, but a child still needs a mother.

You know thats not what the dowager is worried about.

Ji Heng naturally knew that. He sighed and smiled bitterly, how can I let my son eat the bitterness I have suffered?

The Empress Dowager was relieved to hear that. Ji Heng looked at her face carefully and saw that her attitude was more relaxed. He stopped at this point and stopped pushing. Its a long-lasting battle. It cant be accomplished overnight. In fact, Ji Heng has no other way, such as playing with the empress dowager, not afraid of her not agreeing. Its better to persuade her slowly. He believed that his mother was not unreasonable. What she worried most was that Ji Zhao would become the concubine.

The next day, the Empress Dowager called on Ji Zhao to Ci Ning Palace.

Ji Zhao thinks that the Empress Dowager will give her some more trouble, and she is ready for a hard fight.

But the one waiting for her is the Empress Dowagers silence and silence.

Ji Zhao:

Now she knelt in the palace of CI Ning and waited for the Empress Dowagers instructions for a long time, but she did not hear the slightest voice. Ji Zhao doesnt know what medicine is contained in Empress Dowagers gourd, but she has rich experience in kneeling. At this moment, shes like a mountain.

Empress Dowager has been observing Ji Zhao. After spending so many days, her elderly mind actually figured it out. Her son already in a dead set. Why does she have to be a villain and be blamed by her own son? There is no hatred between her and Ji Zhao, and it is going to the point of being intolerant. Whats more, Ruixiang, the palace maid beside her, reminds her that its better for the emperor to fall in love with Miss Ji than to be bewildered by any flatterer.

Then look at Ji Zhao. After kneeling in front of her for a long time, she has been calm. Her bearing is OK.

The Empress Dowager slowly rubbed her hands and finally said, how are you doing on your own? Does anyone dare to trouble you?

Ji Zhao didnt expect the Empress Dowager to pull up the family routine with her. She didnt adapt very well, but she calmly answered one by one.

The Empress Dowager let her get up and gave her a seat. They talked about each other for a while, but the atmosphere was relaxed for a while. Ji Zhao doesnt even know the Empress Dowager. Of course, she knew that the Empress Dowager didnt call her here to say that.

Sure enough, the Empress Dowager turned and said, I know that the emperor is very fond of you, but I dont know what you think.

Ji Zhao bowed her head and replied, Empress Dowager is very observant. I cant hide my mind from you.

In this case, I ask you if I allow you to enter the Harem,  but the premise is that you cant give birth to the emperor, would you do that?

Ji Zhao looks up sharply and looks at her in surprise.

Do you want to answer or not?

The daughter wants to ask empress dowager if I  dont become Empress, then can can I get pregnant?

The Empress Dowager sank her face. Do you decide whether to be an Empress or not? If you want to stay with the emperor, you cant have dragon seeds. Would you do that?

Ji Zhao didnt expect things to develop like this. She knew Empress Dowagers consideration was just for Ruyi. She felt that the Empress Dowagers worry was unnecessary. Ruyi was the eldest son of the emperor. Who would want to go and take his right? Just because of such a possibility that she seemed almost non-existent and deprived her of the chance to have a child for Ji  Heng? Its ridiculous.

But Ji Zhao thought of Ji Hengs pain that day. She didnt know how much he had suffered for her. How could she always wait for his help? If they can only be together if they cant have children, then thats it. At least they can still be together.

Besides, Ruyi is so lovely. She treats him as her own son, which is also very good.

Thinking of this, Ji Zhao nodded.

Empress Dowager waved to Ruixiang. Ruixiang immediately went out and brought a bowl of medicine juice.

Drink down this bowl of medicine, and I will promise you marriage to the emperor.

The medicine is fresh and steaming. The medicine juice is thick and black, and the medicine smell is strong. You dont need to compensate. Just smell it, and you will know how bitter it must be.

After taking the bowl of medicine, Ji Zhao unexpectedly thought that if Wang Meng would smell the stuff inside.

The Empress said she saw her unmoved and said, Dont want to drink? Its too late to regret it now.

No, I will not regret it. Ji Zhao shook her head. Looking at the bowl of medicine, her tears suddenly fell. She regretted that she had not conceived a child for Ji Heng. Now, there will be no more opportunities.

She brought the medicine bowl to her mouth, just about to open her mouth, suddenly she heard an ouch exclamation outside. It seemed that someone had fallen, and then there was another thump and thump. I didnt know what had been kicked.

Its too damaging. The Empress Dowager was furious and asked, who make the noise..?

The word Hua hasnt been taken off, but there is a person at the hall entrance. He wore Xuanguans yellow robe, tall and straight as a pine. She is her good son.

Ji Hengs face was anxious, and he had no time to say hello to the Empress Dowager. Apparently, he came here. When he arrived, his pace hardly slowed down. Seeing Ji Zhao carrying a bowl of things to drink with tears streaming down her face, he rushed over without thinking. He overturned the medicine bowl in her hand.

Dont you dare to drink it! He rarely gets angry with her. When he reached the letter, he ran over, afraid that Ji Zhao would be embarrassed by the Empress Dowager. Just now, when he saw her like that, he had the heart to kill people.

Ji Zhao is surprised. She looks up and sees that its him. Her tears are more fierce.

Ji Hengs heart was aching. He looked at the Empress Dowager with pain and resentment in his eyes. What do you give to A Zhao? Mother, why not give me a bowl too?

His eyes made the Empress dowager feel a little guilty and a little angry. She snorted and said, its nourishing yin and nourishing blood. Its good for womens health. Do you really want to taste it?

Ji Heng was stunned. He looked at Ji Zhao and the medicine on the ground. At last, he looked back at the Empress Dowager and didnt believe her.

Ji Zhao also looked at the Empress Dowager in surprise.

At this time, Ruixiang explained, emperor, this medicine is really tonic. If you dont believe it, you can pass it to the imperial doctor to check. The decoction is taken in three times, and there are two times left.

The Empress Dowager didnt have a good airway. It goes without saying that their dogs bite Lu Dongbin, and they dont know the goodwill. This dowager must look vicious.

Ji Heng was ashamed to hear that. However, Ji Zhao had already knelt on the ground and confessed, the daughter was confused for a while, and misunderstood the Empress Dowager. I really deserve to die for her sin.

The Empress Dowager played with Ji Zhao. She waved her hand to express the unspeakable sense in her heart, you dont need to die. You are dead. Who will be the daughter-in-law of this dowager?

Ji Heng was overjoyed and hurriedly helped Ji Zhao up. Thank you for your mothers blessing.

Ji Zhao also said, thank the Empress Dowager for her blessing.

Come on. This dowager is exhausted. Lets go. I cant use the rest of the medicine. Please take it. Thats all; it took a lot of good medicinal materials and energy to boil it. The Buddha will blame me if it waste.

Fear of spoiling things is fake, and fear that his son does not believe it is true. Empress Dowager knows her sons character, so she doesnt need to make mother and child guilty because of this. She did today a trial and test for Ji Zhao, listening to her words and watching her deeds. The girl was sincere about her son, and she was not so ambitious.

Thats all. Shes too lazy to bother about her son.

After Ji Heng and Ji Zhao left the Ci Ning palace, Ji Heng was not sure. He sent the Taiyi doctor to check the remaining medicine. He came to the conclusion that it was really tonic, which made Ji Zhao feel guilty.
