Chu Shengan didn't seem to expect the Empress Dowager to say such a thing.
Because when Zhang San came just now, he told the Empress Dowager about Chu Jinshen's situation.
So she knew what was going on.
Plus, Zhang San said that Yuezhou has the antidote, so Chu Jinshen will be fine by then.
The Empress Dowager was even more inconspicuous.
She heard rumors that Chu Shengan's position was not legitimate.
Not to mention, he still doesn't have the imperial seal.
No one knows how the jade seal disappeared.
More importantly, with the help of this jade seal, Chu Shengan had no idea how many incidents had occurred.
"Grandmother, don't you want to know at all?"
The Empress Dowager paused. "Then what does Your Majesty want me to know?"
"Of course, Hongcheng is in trouble."
"And my good seventh brother is currently in Hongcheng."
Although he knew that Chu Jinshen was fine, he wanted to prevent Chu Shengan from noticing anything.
The Empress Dowager's expression suddenly changed: "What on earth do you want to do?"
Chu Shengan chuckled: "I really think the Empress Dowager doesn't care at all."
"So... I don't know yet."
The Empress Dowager's voice turned cold: "What on earth happened in Hongcheng!"
"Hongcheng is plagued by disasters and sudden outbreaks of disease, just like Licheng back then."
The Empress Dowager took two steps back, and the nanny behind her quickly supported her.
“Why did the epidemic occur?”
"Didn't Licheng burn down completely back then?"
Chu Shengan shook his head: "I don't know about this matter either, but..."
"It's not all bad."
As soon as he said this, the Empress Dowager's expression became even worse.
Even if Chu Shengan is not legitimate.
But what he is doing now is no different from a madman!
"After all, only my seventh brother can make the Empress Dowager retreat again and again."
"I really don't know what the imperial seal you're talking about is."
Chu Shengan didn't believe her: "Father loved the late queen so much back then."
"Among us brothers, even you like Chu Jinshen the most."
“The lives of the Yue family are so good?!”
Chu Shengan shook his head: "The Empress Dowager said she doesn't believe it, and I don't believe it either."
"The jade seal was either handed over to Chu Jinshen by my father, or it is hidden in your hands!"
The Empress Dowager was also a little stunned.
The incident with the Yue family that year caused the mother and son to become estranged.
Since then, the Empress Dowager was unwilling to see the old emperor anymore.
Instead, he spends the entire day in this small Buddhist temple, concentrating on chanting sutras.
Trying to comfort the souls of the 30,000 Yue Family Army soldiers in heaven.
This is what they owe to the Yue family.
"Father refused to stamp his seal on the imperial edict until the very end."
Chu Shengan sneered: "Why, he really thinks that Chu Jinshen is willing to take the throne."
"I also said, there is nothing here that you want."
Chu Shengan nodded: "Since it's not with the Imperial Grandmother, then... it must be with him."
"Hongcheng epidemic, do you think he can make it out alive?"
The Empress Dowager suppressed her anger and turned away.
"If your Majesty came here just to say these words, then..."
"The Buddha would be unhappy if he heard such words."
Chu Shengan glanced at the enshrined Buddha.
For no apparent reason, I felt a chill in my heart.
"Forget it, if the Empress Dowager doesn't want to talk about it, then don't talk about it."
"It's just that you and I can wait, but my good seventh brother can't."
Chu Shengan said this and walked out.
Only after the head nanny closed the door did the Empress Dowager begin to stagger.
Zhang San quickly jumped down from the beam and supported the Empress Dowager.
"My Lady."
The Empress Dowager calmed down a little and then waved her hand.
"It's just an old problem."
Zhang San took out a jade bottle from his arms.
This was given to him by Lu Anan before.
"My lady, this is what my lady asked me to give you."
The lady was naturally talking about Lu Anan.
The Empress Dowager had some impression of her, but in her memory she was just a little girl.
I once came to the palace with Prime Minister Lu and met him.
Later, the little girl became her granddaughter-in-law.
She thought her good grandson was not interested in women, but now it seems that he has made a choice.
The Empress Dowager couldn't help but think of the news brought by the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict.
That Seventh Princess is not someone to be trifled with.
Not only did he hold the betrothal gifts in his hands, but he also took every penny of the dowry.
The Empress Dowager didn't think there was anything wrong.
Only a princess with such courage can manage a royal palace well.
Moreover, Lu Anan's lively personality is a perfect match for Chu Jinshen.
At first, the Empress Dowager was not very optimistic about the marriage.
It's really too much of a joke.
Although Lu Anan's background is also good, she is the legitimate daughter of Prime Minister Lu.
But it was just a joke at the banquet, but the old emperor took it seriously.
Not only did he issue an imperial decree, but he also had to complete the marriage quickly.
The Empress Dowager was already very angry, but who knew that in the blink of an eye, the old emperor would be unable to move.
She sighed softly.
Fortunately, Chu Jinshen likes this little girl.
Not only did he give her a lot of betrothal gifts, he also asked her to come forward to vent his anger on behalf of his unmarried princess.
"Madam said this thing can keep you safe."
The Empress Dowager took the things.
She opened the jade bottle and a fragrance came out from it.
"Your Majesty is not feeling well. Drink this and you will feel much better."
Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager drank the rainwater in the jade bottle.
I suddenly felt refreshed.
The body that had just been made dizzy by Chu Shengan's anger was now clear.
“It’s a good thing.”
She sighed softly: "Even in their situation, they still think of an old man like me. It's really thoughtful of them."
If Zhang San hadn't appeared suddenly.
I'm afraid that the Empress Dowager will really believe what Chu Shengan said today.
After all, according to the news sent back by Chu Jinshen, they are indeed in Hongcheng at this time.
The Empress Dowager frowned: "How could this jade seal... disappear for no reason?"
Zhang San looked a little strange.
He struggled and said, "When I came here, Madam said..."
"If he still wants the seal, hand over the antidote."
The Empress Dowager was stunned.
"This jade seal..."
Zhang San nodded silently.
The Empress Dowager was somewhat helpless: "I don't know when this little girl will..."
She suddenly remembered the previous time when she forced the emperor to abdicate.
In order to control the black armor soldiers, the queen recruited Lu Anan into the palace.
She originally wanted to rescue her.
Unexpectedly, Lu Anan ran away by herself.
It was probably at that time that Lu Anan put the jade seal away.
"Well, just take it."
"yes."
Although Zhang San didn't know what was going on, he still responded.
"Your Majesty, I will go to the palace of Concubine Bai to find out what happened."
The Empress Dowager frowned: "Not appropriate."
"This imperial concubine's whereabouts are mysterious, and her actions are strange and inexplicable."
As for Lu Anan and Chu Jinshen, the crystal ball showed everything that had happened before.
