Although he didn't like the position of queen, Rong Changan still made himself do everything a queen should do.

Waking up in the morning, Rong Changan took Chuntao to the Empress Dowager's palace early. As in the past, the Queen Mother still avoided seeing her.

From the day of her wedding, the queen mother didn't like her as a queen. The queen in her heart is Ziyan, Rong Changan ruined Ziyan's face, the queen mother will not like her.

Rong Changan came here just to prevent this matter from being criticized. As for whether the queen mother likes her or not, Rong Changan doesn't care.

Since the Queen Mother didn't plan to see her, she didn't want to waste any more time here, so she turned around and took Chuntao away. At this time, Luyu, a court lady next to the empress dowager, came quickly and bowed her knees to salute her: "The empress dowager, please stay, the empress dowager is here to invite you."

Rong Changan stopped in his tracks, his eyes were full of shock and doubt: "The Queen Mother summoned me?"

"Yes, the Empress Dowager has already woken up, let the servants come and invite the Empress Dowager to enter." Luyu nodded and led Rong Changan into the hall.

Walking into the palace, Rong Changan was thinking while walking, the queen mother has been reluctant to see her for so many days, why is she suddenly willing to see her today? Naturally, she would not think that the Queen Mother's willingness to see her meant she accepted her.

It is an established fact that the Queen Mother does not like her, and it is basically impossible to change it. Since he doesn't like her but is willing to see her, the only possibility is that there is another good show waiting for her to watch, Rong Changan can't help but look forward to it.

Although Luyu said that the queen mother was awake, Rong Changan still waited in the hall for a long time before seeing the queen mother. The Empress Dowager walked into the palace slowly, and sat down on a stool: "I heard that the Empress sets her sights every morning and evening, but it's a pity that this palace gets up late every day, and it happened to be a little earlier today, so I saw the Empress."

"The concubine is ignorant. I didn't ask the Empress Dowager when she got up, and disturbed the Empress Dowager's sleep every day. Please don't blame the Empress Dowager!" Rong Changan lowered his eyes, with a contemptuous smile on his lips.

Before coming to see the queen mother, Rong Changan naturally asked Chuntao to inquire about it. The queen mother went to bed early every day and got up early naturally. When Rong Changan arrived, she should have already woken up, but hadn't had breakfast yet.

Rong Changan calculated the time, but underestimated the empress dowager's dislike for her. In this way, she became even more curious about what kind of things could make the Queen Mother willing to meet someone she hated so much.

"For the stability of the country, the empress has been fighting abroad all year round. Naturally, she doesn't know how the women in the palace live. This is what it should be. No wonder you. But, you are an empress after all, so you should learn how to live a normal woman's life."

According to the Queen Mother, she, Changan, is not a normal woman. But yes, if it's a normal woman, how could it be possible for her to fight on the battlefield for so many years and hold the military power in her hands: "What the Empress Dowager said is that the concubines will naturally study hard and won't lose the emperor's face."

"I came to you today because I wanted to ask your opinion on something. My niece, Ziyan, do you still remember?" The Queen Mother was unwilling to talk nonsense with Rong Chang'an, so she quickly got to the point.

Hearing the word "Ziyan", Rong Chang'an understood the purpose of the Queen Mother's willingness to see her today. The queen mother really loves Ziyan very much. The queen mother was willing to meet this extremely disgusting person for her sake.

"Is it the woman who slandered my concubine and hurt her face that day? So many things happened that day, naturally my concubine will not forget it." Rong Changan repeated the events of that day, she wanted to see , After what happened that day, how could the Queen Mother be able to speak.

When mentioning the incident of that day, the Empress Dowager's face was slightly embarrassed, she coughed lightly, and turned her gaze aside: "The incident of that day was an accident. Ziyan was still a little girl, so she was naturally frightened. I think , the queen should not mind."

Ziyan and Rong Changan are not much different in age, in the eyes of the Queen Mother, Ziyan is a little girl, but she has become the queen who should tolerate everything about Ziyan. Rong Changan was a little helpless, the queen mother really regarded her as an ignorant woman and child: "Empress mother, if my concubine remembers correctly, Miss Ziyan should be as old as my concubine."

"Since you are a queen, you should be tolerant. How can you be the mother of a country if you are so preoccupied?" Seeing that Rong Changan refused to give in at all, the queen mother became a little impatient, and her voice raised a little.

When Rong Changan heard the words, he pursed his lips and smiled lightly: "Yes, the concubine knows. Since the concubine is the queen, she will naturally be tolerant. It's just that the concubine has been fighting on the battlefield all year round. If I want to do this, I have to invite the queen mother Give the concubine a little more time."

The queen mother stared at Rong Changan, her eyes were full of anger. What Rong Changan said was accurate, if the Queen Mother refused, it would be too harsh. But the matter of Ziyan is the empress dowager's heart after all. If this matter is not resolved, the Empress Dowager is afraid to be uneasy: "The meaning of this palace is to let Ziyan enter the palace, what does the empress mean?"

Since she couldn't convince Rong Chang'an, the Queen Mother didn't have much patience, and directly told Rong Chang'an what she meant. If Rong Changan is smart enough, he should understand that the Queen Mother has already decided on this matter. It's a pity that Rong Changan is very stupid in this matter.

"Miss Ziyan hurt her face that day, and I'm afraid she hasn't recovered yet. The concubine thinks that since she was injured, she should rest well. Let's discuss the matter of entering the palace later." Rong Changan didn't hesitate much. , quickly rejected the Queen Mother's words.

When the queen mother heard the words, she jumped up against the case: "You actually violated the palace!"

"The empress dowager just said that the concubine is now the empress. Since she is the empress, she should help the emperor manage the harem. Could it be that the empress dowager thinks that the concubine can command the six armies, but can't manage the trivial matters of the harem?"

The military power that Rong Changan holds tightly in her hands will always be her biggest bargaining chip, even if the queen mother hates her, she cannot ignore the military power in her hands. She involved this matter with military power, the queen mother couldn't say anything more.

The queen mother didn't want to say anything more with Rong Chang'an, so she urged her to leave. Rong Changan bowed his knees and left in a graceful manner with Chuntao. After walking out of the Empress Dowager's palace, Rong Changan stopped in his tracks.

Since the Empress Dowager has the intention to let Ziyan enter the palace, she will not give up easily. Letting Ziyan enter the palace is also in Rong Chang'an's plan, if she does not enter the palace, how can Rong Chang'an return to her the suffering she suffered in the previous life

Zi Yan wanted to enter the palace, but she couldn't enter the palace at this time. If you want the queen mother to dispel this idea for the time being, Rong Chang'an alone may not be able to do it: "Chuntao, go invite the emperor over here. Just say, I have something to ask him."

"Yes, ma'am." Chuntao responded, turned and left.
