Thousand Faces Lock Royal Heart

Chapter 22: Meeting the Queen Mother

Hall of Mercy.

Covered by sparse bamboos, flowing water around the bridge, it is quiet and leisurely, and the colors of carved beams and painted columns are also particularly light. This is the place where the Empress Dowager lives.

Shuozhen rushed here in a hurry, followed by Zhan Linglong. He didn't want to come, but Shuozhen said, "I will let you accompany me. Without my permission, you are not allowed to leave me for half a step." line of sight." He insisted on bringing him over.

Zhan Linglong's face was as white as paper, with a precarious and frail appearance. He only cared about the emperor who was the queen mother, and had no intention of caring about him.

Or maybe even if the emperor finds out about his abnormality, he doesn't care about it, but in Shuozhen's heart, he is not a good existence.

"Long live the emperor, auspicious Linggui." The maids guarding outside the palace knelt down to greet the emperor, and after Zhan Linglong and the others left, they began to gather together in twos and threes, whispering.

After all, Zhan Linglong was the only person in the palace who was able to get the emperor's favor and make him a noble concubine overnight. The maids guessed what Zhan Linglong had, and won the dragon's heart.Not only did he make her a concubine, but he also brought her by his side, unwilling to leave for a moment.

Shuozhen didn't ask anyone to inform, but directly entered the Hall of Mercy, and was greeted by a faint scent of tea, permeating the air, which seemed to turn the cool air into an intoxicating warmth.

The queen mother reclined on the sandalwood bench carved with auspicious clouds, closed her eyes and meditated, when she heard the footsteps of someone coming in, she raised her eyes and smiled at the person who came, she looked in a very good mood, and she couldn't see any signs of physical ailment, " The emperor is here?"

"I have seen the queen mother and heard that the queen mother is not feeling well. Have you ever asked the imperial doctor to see her?" Shuozhen supported the queen mother's propped up body and made her sit up.

"My concubine pays respects to the Queen Mother." Zhan Linglong knelt down and bowed respectfully.

"Linglong is here too, get up." The Empress Dowager pointed to the seat beside her, "Come and sit down, both of you, Ai's family is not uncomfortable, but I just wanted the emperor to come to see Ai's family as soon as possible, so I came up with this idea .

But as soon as this word got out, the Ai family regretted it. The emperor is a man who manages everything every day and has always been kind and filial. The Ai family really shouldn't make jokes about such things. "She asked the two to sit beside her, one on each side, with a look of annoyance.

"As long as the mother is in good health, I will be relieved." Shuozhen said, his eyes unconsciously aimed at the beauty opposite him. He had already seen the fragile and precarious appearance of the opposite party. The imperial doctor who asked the queen mother to see her sick also showed him.

Is it sick, or caught a cold last night?Why can't you take care of yourself?

"Emperor, have you settled down after your election?" the Queen Mother asked with a smile.

"..." Shuozhen's eyes never left Zhan Linglong.

The queen mother coughed lightly, and said with a mysterious smile: "Emperor, have you heard what Aijia said?"

"Ah?...What?" Shuozhen's heart was uncontrollably assigned to Zhan Linglong, and he didn't hear anything from the Queen Mother.

"Aijia is talking about the emperor's establishment of the empress." The queen mother said with a smile. When this matter was mentioned, she raised her brows with joy. She held Zhan Linglong's hand and frowned suddenly, "You child Why are your hands so cold?"

She looked at Zhan Linglong's tired and haggard face again, and shook her head, "Is there something wrong with you?"

When Shuozhen heard the Queen Mother's words, he stood up suddenly, and after meeting Zhan Linglong's sight, he sat back as if he didn't care.

Zhan Linglong's originally expectant heart sank after seeing Shuozhen sitting back to his seat. A burst of dizziness struck him, and he forced himself to smile and shook his head, "The concubine is fine, thank you Queen Mother for your concern."

Shuozhen looked at Zhan Linglong's weakness and almost fainted immediately, clenched his fists, and finally couldn't help saying: "You don't feel well, so don't be brave, if you can't, please ask the imperial doctor to take a look." His tone Cold, tough attitude.

"Yes, let's invite the imperial physician to take a look, come, imperial physician Xuan." The queen mother patted Zhan Linglong's hand, with a kind smile on her face all the time.
