Chapter 196 Seeing the Queen Mother

"Greetings to the Queen Mother, I have not had time to pay my respects to the Queen Mother during this period of time, please forgive me."

A faint smile appeared on Ye Chen's face.

But everyone knew that there was hostility hidden under his smile.

And Empress Dowager Du didn't give Ye Chen any good looks at this time.

"The empress doesn't need to be too polite, the Ai family is in good health, and there is no need for the empress to worry about it all the time."

Empress Dowager Du's tone was cold when she said these words, and she didn't intend to show Ye Chen any favors at all.

However, even when Ye Chen faced Empress Dowager Du's cynicism, he didn't take it to heart at all.

He didn't even need Queen Mother Du to greet him, he just found a seat and sat down.

"The empress dowager's words are wrong. As a younger generation, I should come and take care of empress dowager Du. No matter how old you are, you will definitely not go back to the past. In case of any accident..."

"Okay, since you have also seen Aijia, please go back, the empress, Aijia still wants to rest."

Empress Dowager Du wished to drive Ye Chen away immediately, because she could feel that this guy must have no good intentions when he came to this Hall of Mental Cultivation.

But Ye Chen would not leave so easily.

He said with a half-smile: "Actually, the main purpose of my visit to Queen Mother Du this time is to ask you about the secrets of skin care. You are so old, and your skin is still in such good condition. What's the secret?"

After Ye Chen's voice fell, Empress Dowager Du's face became extremely ugly.

Because Ye Chen was no longer mocking her secretly, but clearly mocking her for being old.

But no matter how angry Queen Mother Du was, she couldn't drive Ye Chen away by force.

And the reason why Ye Chen stayed here all the time was because he knew that Murong Bo would definitely come to this Hall of Mental Cultivation today and hand over the Blood Emperor Pill to Queen Mother Du.

If their Murong family's plot really succeeds, then Luo Hongyan's innocence will really be difficult to guarantee.

Sure enough, not long after, a little eunuch from the Hall of Mental Cultivation came to report.

"Queen Mother, Murong Bo, the son of the Southwest Prince, has come to ask for an audience!"

After Ye Chen heard the servant's report, he thought to himself that it was time.

And Empress Dowager Du can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

She felt that Ye Chen had always had a bad temper with the Murong family, maybe after Murong Bo came, Ye Chen would choose to leave.

Otherwise, this guy has been hanging around here, which really upset her a lot.

However, after she ordered Murong Bo to be brought in, Ye Chen had no intention of getting up and leaving.

This made Queen Mother Du a little angry.

She said coldly: "Empress, Mr. Murong has come to visit the Ai family. Do you think we should talk about it some other time?"

Next, what made Empress Dowager Du feel a little desperate was that Ye Chen shook his head.

Then he said solemnly: "Queen Mother, what you said is out of line. I heard that the last son of the Murong family died strangely in Dali Temple. Now that the new son has just ascended the throne, I also need to get acquainted."

After hearing Ye Chen's words, Queen Mother Du couldn't help but the corners of her mouth began to twitch.

She thought to herself that Murong Yan's death had something to do with you, Ye Chen, but you still have the nerve to say that you want to meet a new prince?

What's more, you, Ye Chen, already know the new son Murong Bo, so I really don't know what the hell you are doing.

Although Ye Chen also knew that his excuse was very poor, he didn't care about it.

For Ye Chen, he just wanted to stay in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, so as to wait for an opportunity to destroy the Murong family's scheme.

Soon, Murong Bo entered the Hall of Mental Cultivation under the leadership of his little eunuch.

Originally, Murong Bo was full of joy and wanted to hand over the Blood Emperor Pill in his arms to the Queen Mother.

As long as the trick is successful, their Murong family will soon have the conditions to rebel.

But what he never expected was that after entering the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the first thing he saw would be Ye Chen.

In an instant, the smile on Murong Bo's face turned into frosty hatred.

Although it was because of Ye Chen that he, Murong Bo, had the opportunity to sit in the position of the prince.

But this does not mean that he will not hate Ye Chen.

After all, he lost his eldest brother, who was a close relative of flesh and blood.

However, even though Murong Bo was extremely displeased with Ye Chen in his heart, he still had to show respect on the surface.

"Meet the Emperor, meet the Queen Mother!"

Murong Bo saluted with a very ugly face.

Before Queen Mother Du could speak, Ye Chen spoke directly.

"Young Master Murong, congratulations, I heard that you have become the new son of the Southwest Prince. This is a great joy!"

When Ye Chen said these words, his expression was very natural.

As if he is not in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, but in Fengming Palace, he has a posture of wanting to turn against the guests.

Murong Bo's face was stiff, and he was already extremely unhappy in his heart.

But then, Ye Chen said again: "Your elder brother Murong Yan, he forcibly made his own way, I hope you don't make the same mistake as him."

"The empress is right!" Murong Bo continued

Although on the surface, Ye Chen seemed to be telling Murong Bo something earnestly.

But anyone with a discerning eye present could see that Ye Chen was clearly threatening Murong Bo.

However, Murong Bo could only listen obediently and did not dare to refute at all.

At this time, Queen Mother Du finally had the opportunity to speak.

"Young Master Murong, get up, it's a good idea for you to come to Ai's house as soon as possible to have a look."

At this time Ye Chen sneered in his heart, but he knew that Murong Bo didn't come to the palace at the first time, but ran to the boudoir of Miss Mingyue in Tianxian Tower.

At this time, Murong Bo was a little nervous because he had planned very well.

After entering the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he planned to exchange greetings with Empress Dowager Du, then took out the Blood Emperor Pill, and proposed his plan to join forces with Empress Dowager Du to help Prince Mu ascend to the throne.

But at this moment, there was an extra Ye Chen, which made things difficult for Murong Bo.

Murong Bo was struggling in his heart. He was worried that Ye Chen's existence would prevent him from handing over the Blood Emperor Pill to the Supreme Emperor even if he took out the Blood Emperor Pill.

However, as the son of the Southwest Prince, it is reasonable for him to visit the Queen Mother once in the palace once in a while. If he visits in succession in a short period of time, it will inevitably arouse the vigilance of some caring people.

This caused the current Murong Bo to fall into a dilemma.

If the Blood Emperor Pill is taken out, there is a possibility of failure.

If he didn't take out the Blood Emperor Pill this time, he would have to postpone it for a long time.
