Dressed as Concubine Xian [Comprehensive Yanxi Palace]

In a few words, the misunderstanding was clearly explained, Chen Zhihua touched his face, and asked curiously: "Zhihua dares to ask the two ladies, is Zhihua's appearance really the same as that of Empress Xiaoxianchun when she was young?"

"It's exactly the same, it's just...it's the empress...the empress..."

Just mentioning Empress Xiaoxianchun, Mrs. Chaoyong couldn't help but choked up again.

Compared to her, Mrs. First Zhongyong was a little calmer, she looked at Chen Zhihua obsessively, and said softly: "Miss Chen, I have a heartless request, can you call me 'Yingluo'? "

"Wreaths?"

Chen Zhihua was puzzled, his red lips parted slightly, and he spit out two words.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."

The call as if from another world made Mrs. Zhongyong and Mrs. Zhongyong unable to control her emotions any longer. The longing that had been suppressed for many years suddenly broke down, and she hugged Chen Zhihua and burst into tears.

Chen Zhihua was overwhelmed by the tears of the first-class loyal and brave wife, so she could only let her hug her, pat her back with her fingers from time to time, imitating the tone of Empress Xiaoxian Chun, and comforted her softly: "...don't I'm crying, Yingluo...I'm back...I won't leave this time..."

Hearing this, both Yingluo and Mingyu cried even harder.

When the sons who accompanied their mother saw their mother being so emotional, they all turned around silently and wiped away their tears.

……

After crying for about half an hour, the two ladies finally calmed down, wiped away their tears, and wanted to apologize to Chen Zhihua. At this moment, the little eunuch entered and said that the queen mother invited Chen Zhihua to meet in the Royal Garden.

When Chen Zhihua met the Empress Dowager for the first time, he was uneasy, and looked worriedly at the two imperial wives.

Guerjia Yingluo smiled and said, "Miss Chen, don't worry, the Queen Mother is the most magnanimous and reasonable person in the entire Forbidden City."

"Miss Chen, do you know that even the abandoned concubine Wei who murdered the emperor's heir many times, after the Dongchuang incident, the queen mother thought that she had given birth to an heir for the royal family, so please allow the emperor to allow the Wei family to die in Yuanmingyuan." Mingyu said, "The queen mother How could you be so gentle to a woman who is her enemy, how could you be so harsh on you who looks exactly like Empress Xiao Xianchun?"

"But I-"

Guerjia Yingluo comforted: "When the queen mother was still a concubine, she was favored by the filial and pure queen, and she would never embarrass you for no reason."

"Then I..."

After hearing the description of the two imperial wives, Chen Zhihua got up and followed the young eunuch to the imperial garden.

……

……

Like the traditional imperial examinations, the women's imperial examinations are also held after the spring imperial examinations and imperial examinations.

Therefore, when Chen Zhihua came to the imperial garden with the eunuch, it was the most blooming time of the year at the turn of spring and summer. The spring flowers were in full bloom, the summer lotus was just blooming, the birds were singing and the butterflies were dancing, it was a prosperous and prosperous time.

After bringing Chen Zhihua to the Zhile Pavilion, the eunuch stepped aside and asked Chen Tanhua to enter the pavilion by himself.

Chen Zhihua walked into the pavilion a little apprehensively, and saw the Empress Dowager with her back to herself, wearing a dark green dress from the Western Yi Kingdom and the gorgeous white wig most popular in the Western Yi Kingdom, feeding the koi happily. The maids beside her were wearing western costumes or banner man's palace costumes, all of which were new styles that Chen Zhihua had heard about for a long time but hadn't seen for a long time.

Afraid of disturbing the Queen Mother's interest in feeding the fish, Chen Zhihua stood silently by the maid's side after entering the pavilion, and did not go forward to salute until the Queen Mother turned around, saying: "Tanhua Chen Zhihua pays respects to the Queen Mother, and may the Queen Mother live a thousand years Thousands of years, thousands of years."

"Get up."

The Empress Dowager signaled Chen Zhihua to get up, and asked the maids to serve small snacks such as cream cakes, chocolates, and macarons from the West, and personally poured Chen Zhihua a cup of coffee that also came from a foreign country, saying: " These things were originally Western, but now they are gradually becoming part of the Qing Dynasty.”

"The empress dowager has a broad mind and can accommodate all rivers, which is really a blessing for all people."

Chen Zhihua said in trepidation, after taking a sip of coffee, he found that although the taste of this thing was bitter, it had an endless aftertaste, and he was fascinated by it.

The queen mother gave her another piece of chocolate and said, "Try the chocolate. Although it is black like coffee, it tastes completely different."

"Yes, Queen Mother."

Chen Zhihua put 70.00% five-purity dark chocolate chips into his mouth, the chocolate melted by the temperature of the mouth, and the silky texture released a sweet and sour taste that cannot be described in words. He was not surprised, and said: "The strange taste, It's obviously bittersweet and slightly sweet, but it makes me feel happy, as if...as if..."

"As if remembering the best time of your life?"

Chen Zhihua nodded, and then said with sincerity and fear, "Zhihua is guilty, Zhihua shouldn't talk nonsense in front of the Queen Mother."

"You're just describing how chocolate makes you feel, what's your fault?"

The queen mother also ate a piece of chocolate, with tears in her eyes: "The peach blossoms are falling, Xianchi Pavilion, although the mountain alliance is here, the brocade book is hard to entrust..."

Chen Zhihua's father and brother are both officials in the court, and they have been familiar with the royal affairs since childhood, and they know a little about the affairs of the royal family. Hearing the Queen Mother's words, it is obvious that he is thinking of someone who is blocked by the red wall. : "Ask what love is in the world, and teach people to promise each other through death... Queen Mother, Zhihua has overstepped!"

Chen Zhihua came to his senses and knelt down in fear.

The Empress Dowager sighed, helped Chen Zhihua up herself, and said: "Do you know why this palace alone summoned you to the Imperial Garden?"

"Back to the Empress Dowager, because this time the top three, Qinggege and Langgege are both nobles of the royal family, only Zhihua came from—"

"Because you look a lot like an old friend of this palace."

The queen mother stretched out her hand, and the pure gold armor brushed across Chen Zhihua's youthful face: "Rongyin, you are still the same as before, but my hair is already covered with snow."

"The Queen Mother..."

Chen Zhihua knew that at this moment, what the Empress Dowager was looking into her eyes was Empress Xiaoxian Chun, so she remained motionless and did not even dare to blink. Instead, the Empress Dowager touched Zhihua's earlobe with her fingertips, and found that her ears were on the earlobe. There are four red moles symmetrically in pairs, and they happen to be above the pierced ears. He said with a smile, "Your birthmark is also strange, like a man with one ear and three pincers."

"Since Zhihua can remember things, people have often been curious about Zhihua's birthmark. I suggest that Zhihua find a Taoist monk and ask if he has unfulfilled wishes in his previous life," Chen Zhihua said, "But Zhihua thinks that Zhihua's previous life Since you choose to drink Mengpo soup, you intend to forget the past, since you choose to forget, why do you have to remember it?"

"That's right, since you have chosen to forget, you shouldn't mention it and remember it again."

The queen mother smiled knowingly, asked Chen Zhihua to walk to the Yule Pavilion together, and said: "You are now a high school prospect, do you want to stay in Beijing or go abroad?"

"Zhihua doesn't want to be an official in the court, Zhihua just wants to travel around the world and be free."

"free?"

The Empress Dowager sighed softly when she heard the words, and said, "This was a wish that she had worked hard all her life but could not realize."
