Chapter 2116: Probing
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Yan Jin Nian’s return was naturally told to Emperor Yang Zhou.Even though Yan Jin Nian was not Emperor Yang Zhou’s birth mother, she was the one and only Empress Dowager in the Imperial Palace. His father’s other concubines were not worthy of this titles and many of them had passed away during the time when they were away.
After all, many of them were not living very well.
Emperor Yang Zhou didn’t purposely make things difficult for them, but with him ignoring them, some people would have their heart moved. And if these concubines were to make trouble, no one would come to support them.
Thus, many of them were not able to survive.
But Empress Dowager Yan was different.
Even if Emperor Yang Zhou didn’t really favor Empress Dowager Yan, there were many people who would not want her to die. Because she’s the former Empress and also the Empress Dowager here.
No one would dare to challenge her authority in the slightest bit.
It was just that Yan Jin Nian was too lazy to be involved in the matter of the throne again, so she stayed in Yi Shang Temple in peace and didn’t want to come back. The other people who were watching also put down their heart.
After all, if Yan Jin Nian wanted to, she could even take the power of the harem.
Even if it was not completely, her words and action could affect it.
Emperor Yang Zhou also had to respect her based on the filial piety and so on. Though, there was a limit to it because Emperor Yang Zhou is the Emperor.
Hearing that Yan Jin Nian had come back, Emperor Yang Zhou naturally came out to greet Yan Jin Nian. Yan Jin Nian might not be his birth mother, but she has the status as his mother and Emperor Yang Zhou would give her enough face.
“Your Majesty,” Yan Jin Nian greeted when she saw Emperor Yang Zhou. There was a smile on her face and she looked much more healthier and better than how she used to be.
Emperor Yang Zhou naturally also noticed Yan Jin Nian’s appearance and smiled.
He knew that Yan Jin NIan’s body was weak and the main reason why she chose to stay in Yi Shang Temple was to recuperate her body.
Now that he saw her again, he could say for sure that Yan Jin Nian had gotten better. It was hard to say whether she had recuperate or not, but it didn’t seem to be possible. The imperial doctors had told him in the past that Yan Jin Nian’s physical condition was impossible to be -cured.
At most, she could prolong her life.
But asking her to live as well as ordinary people and so on would be highly impossible.
“Imperial Mother,” Emperor Yang Zhou greeted back. “Your palace has been cleaned for you, Imperial Mother.”
It was more like, the palace was always cleaned in case Yan Jin Nian wanted to come back. Even if the chance was low, the servants didn’t dare to neglect it and still do their duties well to keep the palace spotless and clean.
This way, Yan Jin Nian could use the palace immediately upon her return.
Yan Jin Nian smiled at Emperor Yang Zhou. “Thank you, you’re really thoughtful, Your Majesty.”
Emperor Yang Zhou nodded and the two of them exchanged a few more pleasantries.
Those who looked at how the two of them interacted would feel that the two of the were truly mother and son. But the people from the Imperial Family were all very good at keeping their appearance.
It was just that whether it was the truth or not, no one knew.
The possibility of it being the truth was actually relatively lower.
After all, what was blood relationship in the Imperial Palace? Many brothers even dared to kill each other for the sake of power.
Now, the two of them didn’t even have any blood relationship.
It was nothing more than superficial relationship.
But the servants and others who were watching at the side and waiting didn’t dare to say anything. They didn’t even dare to raise their head in fear they would do something wrong.
All they could do was to wait.
Soon, Emperor Yang Zhou was done and left.
He still had a lot of work and naturally didn’t have the time to accompany Yan Jin Nian. Besides, he knew very well that Yan Jin Nian was not someone who was greedy for power.
This woman had no one close to her in her family members. She had no children either and her own life was limited.
Would such a person try to covet power?
Why made things difficult in the last few years of her life?
Only an idiot would do something like that or someone who wanted to seek death even earlier than the time given to her.
And Yan Jin Nian was not a person like that.
She wanted to enjoy the rest of her time in peace.
It was just that she had made a promise to Nan Hua and would make sure that the noble girls would not speak badly about Nan Hua and so on.
Thus, she came back here.
“Imperial Mother,” Empress Xiao stepped forward and greeted after Emperor Yang Zhou had left.
Since Emperor Yang Zhou didn’t let her come forward with him before, she could only wait for Emperor Yang Zhou to leave before she came to talk with Yan Jin Nian.
To be honest, Empress Xiao hadn’t interacted much with Empress Dowager Yan since Empress Dowager Yan didn’t spend much time in the palace after Emperor Yang Zhou’s succession and also that young man’s marriage many years ago.
Empress Dowager Yan never had any interest in power.
Even back then, Empress Xiao was able to become the Empress also had some help from
Empress Dowager Yan.
So if anything, the two of them were interacting pretty well with each other.
