The Empress Dowager nodded, but at that moment a piercing sound came from outside.
"Empress Dowager! I am He Yunxiao! Does Your Majesty still remember me?"
Meng Qingqian frowned when she heard He Yunxiao's name. Being in a high position, she naturally didn't care about trivial matters like He Yunxiao's bullying of men and women. The only thing that troubled her was Marquis Wuqing, He Yuanhao.
This was a highly respected general in the army, commanding 120,000 troops.
As long as this person remains under Han Wenxin's command, Han Wenxin's military power will be unbreakable.
"Jian Ling, let's go."
After Meng Qingqian finished speaking, she walked into the back hall, and her proud figure gradually disappeared behind the screen.
...
Since He Yunxiao had promised his aunt, he genuinely intended to behave properly in front of the Empress Dowager. After all, Meng Qingqian was one of the female protagonists in the original novel, and if Chu Fan were to offend her in the future, Chu Xiaoxiao might ring the bell, and he would have to step in to save Meng Qingqian's life.
It's always good to build a good relationship with your mother-in-law beforehand.
However, plans can't keep up with changes. Just as he was about to make a good impression on his future mother-in-law, his aunt was about to lose her footing.
My aunt treats me so well, how can I ignore it?
It's impossible.
I always side with my own people, not with what's right.
He Yunxiao went straight from the back of the line, past his aunt and Qin Wenmo, to the front.
But he didn't stop there. Instead, he walked straight to the entrance of the Empress Dowager's palace and shouted without any politeness, "Empress Dowager! I am He Yunxiao! Does the Empress Dowager still remember me?"
The eunuch guarding the gate was terrified and quickly stopped him, saying, "Young master! The Empress Dowager is taking a nap; please do not call her again!"
Zhang Jingxian also said anxiously, "Xiao'er, don't be rude!"
He Yunxiao compromised, "Fine, I won't shout anymore. But since my aunt has been standing for so long, I'll go into the hall first and borrow a chair from the Empress Dowager, is that alright?"
The eunuch immediately stopped him, standing alone in front of the door.
"No!"
He Yunxiao said he wanted to enter the Empress Dowager's palace, but he didn't actually do anything about it.
He's not stupid. At most, making a fuss is just "losing his temper and making a scene," but if he actually enters the palace, that would be "trespassing in the inner palace."
The difference between the two is that one is confinement, and the other is being put in a coffin.
After He Yunxiao's outburst, the Empress Dowager inside indeed stopped sleeping.
A palace maid hurriedly opened the door and announced that everyone should enter the hall.
