Rong Changan held Ziyan's hand, looked at Miao Yuanyuan and said, "Yuanyuan go to pay me a respect today, I often read you to her, and I want to bring her to meet you today. Yuanyuan, you Let’s just call Ziyan my aunt.”
In the Dajing Kingdom, the sisters of the father or the sisters of the mother can be collectively referred to as aunts.
Miao Yuanyuan saluted Ziyan: "Yuanyuan pays respects to Aunt Ziyan!"
Ziyan smiled slightly, and supported Yuanyuan's hands: "What is this, let the queen of the dynasty come to worship me! This is my life!"
The three laughed and talked, Zi Yan seemed to have forgotten that Li Hao was here.
Before leaving, Rong Changan said to Ziyan: "When the day of the wedding comes, you should come and join in the fun!"
Zi Yan hurriedly lowered her head: "I am a guilty person, how can I attend the wedding of the emperor and the empress? It's not appropriate!"
However, Rong Changan had to show his teeth no matter what.
"I won't talk about the past. Now you are a Taoist aunt of Qingyun Temple. How can you be a guilty person?" Rong Changan looked at Miao Yuanyuan again, "Yuanyuan, you should come here more often in the future." Discuss the scriptures with Aunt Ziyan, and if you understand the scriptures well, your view of the world will be different."
"Yes!" Miao Yuanyuan replied in a low voice.
Ziyan also grabbed Miao Yuanyuan's bright wrist, and looked at her with deep eyes: "The queen mother is right, you should come to my place often in the future!"
Without Rong Changan's awareness, Zi Yan pressed Miao Yuanyuan's arm. Miao Yuanyuan's eyes were full of doubts, not knowing what Ziyan meant.
When she returned to the palace with Rong Changan, she went back and forth again. There was a soft call outside the courtyard of the Buddhist hall:
"Aunt Ziyan?"
Sitting on the futon, Ziyan's mouth twitched with pride when she heard Miao Yuanyuan's voice.
"Who is it?" Zi Yan asked knowingly.
Miao Yuanyuan walked into the courtyard and stood at the door of the Buddhist hall: "Aunt Ziyan, it's me, Yuanyuan."
Zi Yan jumped up and grabbed Miao Yuanyuan's hand: "Yuanyuan, why are you here? Didn't you just go back with the Queen Mother?"
Miao Yuanyuan looked surprised: "Just now you pressed my arm a few times, didn't you mean that I came to you?"
Zi Yan pretended to be surprised: "I... How many times have I pressed on your arm? Have you?"
Miao Yuanyuan blushed and looked very ugly: "I... I misunderstood, I'm sorry!"
Ziyan just gave Miao Yuanyuan a little hint, and she came over right away. This can only explain one problem: she is eager to get help!
And why would she want to help
Ziyan smiled like a flower: Miao Yuanyuan must be becoming more and more hostile to Rong Changan!
Miao Yuanyuan was about to leave, but Ziyan stopped her: "Since you're here, don't leave! I'll make a pot of tea, let's chat for a while!"
"Then... won't that bother Auntie?"
Zi Yan smiled and said: "What's the trouble!"
After finishing speaking, he walked out of the Buddhist hall. But I thought happily in my heart: Rong Changan, Rong Changan, but you asked your daughter-in-law to come to me often and gave me a chance to take revenge. Don't blame me!
After cooking the tea, I took it to the Buddhist hall, facing the Buddha statue and the incense in the room, the two sipped the tea.
While drinking tea, did Ziyan glance at Miao Yuanyuan, and then coughed twice: "Queen, you are so lucky! You will be the queen of a country soon, and in Dajing Kingdom, who else is better than the two of you?" Have power? You are the two happiest people in the world. And there is such a reasonable queen mother, even if I sleep at night, I will still smile."
Miao Yuanyuan said in her heart: I thought she could have some good strategy to let me guard against Rong Chang'an, but it turns out she is also from Rong Chang'an! Why did I hear that she was at odds with Rong Changan before? It seems that others are just talking nonsense.
From Miao Yuanyuan's displeased face, Zi Yan could already see that there was a gap between her and Rong Chang'an, but on the surface, Miao Yuanyuan still had to behave filially to Rong Chang'an. When Miao Yuanyuan really becomes the queen, a good show of fighting for power and profit will be staged!
Seeing that Miao Yuanyuan remained silent, Ziyan giggled, "Queen, drink tea! This is Fujian tea, it's delicious!"
After taking a sip of tea, Ziyan chatted some gossip with Miao Yuanyuan. She was already eloquent, so after only staying for about an hour, she was delighted with what Miao Yuanyuan said, and regarded her as one of her own.
After the wedding, Miao Yuanyuan came to chat with Zi Yan whenever she had time. Seeing that Miao Yuanyuan was no longer on guard against her, Ziyan asked:
"Queen, you came to see me for the first time that day. When I mentioned the relationship between the queen mother and you, you frown, as if you have something on your mind. Could it be that you have a bad relationship with the queen mother?"
Miao Yuanyuan was taken aback: "It's nothing, how can I have a bad relationship with the Queen Mother! Auntie, don't talk nonsense." She lowered her head, her eyes dimmed.
Zi Yan took her cold and slightly nervous hand: "Queen, I just asked you because I treated you as one of my own. If you still treat me like this and refuse to tell me, Auntie will be angry. "
After listening to her words, Miao Yuanyuan sighed: "I have difficulties, how can I tell my aunt!"
Ziyan's sharp gaze has already seen through her mind: "Actually, if you don't tell me, I'll make a good guess. Although the queen mother said that she has returned to the emperor, in name you and the emperor are the most powerful people, but Da Jing The people and ministers of the country are still thinking about her, and they wish she would come out to govern. Therefore, when the emperor deals with state affairs, he has to ask the queen mother about almost everything. When you see the queen mother, you are like a thorn in your back, but you dare not object She had no choice but to force a smile, and to accompany the smiling face, her heart was naturally in pain."
Miao Yuanyuan didn't know whether to be afraid or happy, Zi Yan was able to grasp her mind so accurately!
"Auntie, you... you think too much!"
Zi Yan squinted at Miao Yuanyuan, knowing that she was already on the road, she added embellishments and said, "Actually, you don't need to say this, I know it all! The Queen Mother is a powerful person, and anyone who is in front of her should be afraid of three points, don't It is said that you are with the emperor, even the first emperor is afraid of the queen mother, like a mouse seeing a cat."
Miao Yuanyuan's face was full of sorrow: "Since the big wedding, every time I pay her respects, I always worry about it. If this continues, I will go crazy!"
Miao Yuan took a full sip of tea, and grabbed Zi Yan's hand instead: "Auntie, I treat you as my own, you can't sell me out, and tell the Queen Mother about the conversation between you and me."
Zi Yan smiled warmly: "Don't worry, I have had deep conflicts with her before. Do you think I want to spend my whole life in this deserted place? Alas, I came here just now because of the empress dowager."
Miao Yuanyuan felt sympathy for each other: "It turns out that you also have difficulties!"
"So the two of us have to unite!" Zi Yan said.
Miao Yuanyuan held onto Ziyan's hand even more tightly, and looked at Ziyan pleadingly: "Auntie, tell me a way to get rid of the shackles of the Queen Mother, okay?"
Zi Yan pretended to be embarrassed: "You and the Queen Mother are mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, how can I be willing to intervene in your family affairs? This... is not very good!"
Miao Yuanyuan cried, "If I can't get rid of her bondage, I'd rather die!"
Zi Yan thought for a while, then suddenly looked at Miao Yuanyuan with sullen eyes: "Actually, it is very easy to get rid of the shackles of the queen mother, as long as the queen can do it."
"Is there anything I can't do?" Miao Yuanyuan said, "Auntie, tell me quickly!"
Ziyan closed the door of the Buddhist hall, mysteriously: "Empress, there is a saying that one can be a master only when suffering is suffering. Now you should serve the Empress Dowager well and talk about her displeasure at the emperor's bedside every day." Well, the emperor has heard a lot, so he will naturally believe it..."
