"Empress Dowager, Imperial Concubine Wei is asking to see you outside the hall." Nanny Lin from Shoukang Hall approached the Empress Dowager softly.

"Well, go and bring the noble concubine in." The empress dowager nodded and said upon hearing this.

"No, Queen Mother" Mother Lin respectfully took the order and retreated.

The Empress Dowager waited for Nanny Song to leave, and then continued the interrupted words: "Bai Sheng, you have to think clearly, if you are really determined to take Yan Xun back to Yanbei, I will help you." You once, but the consequences are uncertain!"
Bai Sheng definitely couldn't say what he said, even though he wanted to take advantage of the Empress Dowager and Yan Bei's influence to let Emperor Wei return his son.

But what I saw and heard in Chang'an in the past few days has really subverted my cognition. The mental outlook of the people inside and outside the city all shows the current strength of Wei. Emperor Wei, the consequences and the price to be paid must be more severe than Shicheng and Mr. Wu's budget.

But Xun'er has been in Chang'an for more than ten years by himself, if he fails to bring him back this time, then Xun'er may never go back to Yanbei again in this life.

The empress dowager sighed when she saw Bai Sheng's tangled appearance, and for the sake of being a "mother and daughter" for more than ten years, she reminded again: "This matter is not in a hurry, and you and Concubine Wei will be together later. Let’s talk about the old days, and it’s not too late to make a decision after careful consideration.”

"No, Bai Sheng thanked the queen mother." Bai Sheng forced her lips into a smile when she heard the words. She knew that although the queen mother might not protect herself and the Yan family, she would definitely not intentionally harm herself and the Yan family.

The person who can let her live in the harem and ignore the changes in the imperial court's policies repeatedly persuaded himself twice to think more about it shows that Emperor Wei is indeed dissatisfied with the Yan family, but the severity of the dissatisfaction and the means of execution are different. How ruthless it is is still unknown.

"The concubine has seen the queen mother" After Wei Guifei entered the inner hall, she respectfully saluted the empress dowager.

"The imperial concubine comes and sits. The palace is full of her own people, so there is no need to be so polite." The empress dowager waved with a smile, although the relationship between herself and the emperor's son was not as close as that of an ordinary mother and son due to court rules.

Since Huang'er became the emperor, although he respected himself very much on the surface, except for greetings on the morning of the 15th day of the new year, he really rarely appeared at other times.

Only Concubine Wei Gui often came to wait on her and pay her respects. After more than ten years of getting along and accompanying her, I was really satisfied and loved this polite and well-behaved Concubine Wei Gui.

"Concubine, thank you Queen Mother." Concubine Wei Guifei sat down on the Empress Dowager's head after performing the salute, expressing her kindness to the Queen Mother.

Then she smiled again and said: "The concubine heard from the people below that Bai Sheng had entered the palace, so she came over to join in the fun. I haven't seen you for more than ten years, Bai Sheng, you are still brilliant."

"Your concubine is really joking. In my opinion, you are the one with the same brilliance and the same face." Bai Sheng smiled politely, but he couldn't help thinking that Wei Yun had changed a lot since he hadn't seen it for more than ten years. The daughter of the Wei Clan, who was born in China, finally became the well-behaved Wei Huang Guifei.

"You two, you don't need to praise each other. According to my palace, you are both good." The empress dowager interrupted the two of them with a smile, and then rubbed her forehead and said: "You are old and energetic. It's not enough, noble concubine, take Bai Sheng to sit with you, I will calm down first."

Concubine Wei Gui and Bai Sheng looked at each other, knowing that the Empress Dowager deliberately brought them together, they stood up at the same time and said: "No".

Jingming Palace,
"How have you and Marquis Dingbei been doing these past few years?" Concubine Wei asked softly. As a partner who grew up together, Concubine Wei knew the disputes between Emperor Wei, Yan Shicheng and Bai Sheng best.

When I was young, I was envious of Bai Sheng. She was beautiful and talented. People who liked her were all influential figures of the time. Afterwards, she could go to Yanbei with Marquis Dingbei, so she no longer had to be trapped in this square harem. .

It is really an enviable life to live a life of endless intrigue, mutual calculation and competition for favor!

"You should have heard about the living environment and situation in Yanbei. I can only say that after I get used to it, I'm doing okay now." Bai Sheng replied without hiding anything. Not as noble as a serious princess, but life is pretty good.

But for the sake of Shicheng and escaping from Emperor Wei's hidden and unethical feelings, after asking the queen mother for a marriage, he hurried to Yanbei. Everything there caused his young self to suffer a lot. Xun was sent to Chang'an again as a hostage.

Now it's hard for Shicheng to agree to take Yan Xun back home, but the reality tells me that his wish for a family reunion is not allowed by the imperial power at all.

Originally, the empress dowager's father, who died because of her rescue, was very fond of her, but this time the empress dowager has made it clear that if she insists on something that cannot be asked for, the consequences will be the responsibility of herself and the Yan family. Take it all.

"Then Bai Sheng, have you ever thought about bringing your daughter-in-law and the next generation back to Chang'an to live in Chang'an? The culture and everything else here is much better than that in Yanbei. You can live a better life when you come back." Concubine Wei said, she can do it That's it at most, I hope Bai Sheng can choose the most suitable path on behalf of Ding Beihou.

"Ah..." Bai Sheng was a little dazed. He was already depressed by the queen mother's words, but he never thought that Wei Yun's knife would be even more terrifying. He would not let Xun'er go back, and he would bring his wife and grandchildren to live in Chang'an. What should Shicheng do if he really does that?
In the future, he will act in a restrained manner, and more importantly, it will never be like this again. In order to enable the people of Yanbei to live a stable and stable life, he will grit his teeth and prevent other powerful forces from entering Yanbei and competing for points. The only remaining benefits and things for the people of Yandi.

"Tomorrow, the emperor plans to build a college in Chang'an and the surrounding towns for the common people and down-and-out gentry to study. If there are talented people, they will arrange masters to teach them, whether they are studying or practicing martial arts or miscellaneous talents." Concubine Wei revealed some things that had been agreed Anyway, this matter is not a confidential matter, and the Tai Chi Palace will issue an imperial edict in two months at the latest.

"That's it, Concubine, you said that I will stay in Chang'an Kecheng instead of Yan Xun, and as for the daughters-in-law who just got married, it would be not good to let them separate from their husbands like this.

After all, it is only a few years for women to have children, if they miss it, it will not delay them." Bai Sheng understood immediately after hearing this, whether it was the Queen Mother or Concubine Wei, they were all reminding themselves that the image of the emperor and himself and others is now It has been different for a long time, he has power, wealth and soldiers in his hands, and he will soon gather people's hearts and minds. Yanbei and Shicheng can't fight him, nor can they fight against the emperor who occupies the upper hand.

Then resigning to fate is the best way for the Yan family right now!
