Chapter Five Hundred and Fifty Five: Interview with the Empress Dowager (Monthly Pass)

After hearing this, Chen Zhi was timid and looked very afraid of the fishing man.

"But, the evil woman took this opportunity to make many subjects praise her for her wiseness, but I am afraid that the queen of the mother would also appreciate her. What should we do next?"

The fisherman was silent for a moment before saying, "Chen Kaizhi is going to be appointed as the governor of Jibei, right?"

Speaking of this, Chen Zhijing felt a sense of discomfort and said depressedly: "That's right, I think this matter is worth discussing. It's better to just let all officials oppose it. No matter how bad the wives are, it's impossible..."

The fisherman sighed again: "You, after all, still don't understand. The Warriors Camp is now completely reborn. If you have been stationed in the capital, can you feel at ease? Jibei is ultimately far away from the capital. Isn't it a good thing to place them there?"

Chen Zhijing's body shook, his eyes flashed, and he felt like he was thinking.

Diaoweng then said, "Mu, obviously, I want to take this opportunity to reuse him, and he has made great contributions. As the prince and the emperor's father, why should you stop it? After years of being assisted in the administration, you really thought that you had become the emperor and everything would not go as you wish, so you got angry. I am very worried that you would break my plan now. Well, listen carefully. Chen Kaizhi has made great contributions now. As King Zhao, you should treat him well and never turn against him at will. You should place your mother's mind more on your side, and Mu, and don't lose your big mistakes because of small things."

Although Chen Zhijing understood the deep meaning of the Diaoweng, he was still unwilling to give up and said, "But, can you let Chen Kaizhi grow stronger in Jibei Prefecture?"

The fisherman raised his eyes slightly and looked into the distance. His eyes seemed to be far away. After a long time of silence, he said, "I will make arrangements. You... don't worry, just do what you should do. Okay, you have been out of the city for so long, and this exquisite work of Mingjingsi has always been rampant. It's better to be careful. Go and go back to the city earlier. If there is nothing to do, don't come to see me."

Chen Zhijing opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he just sighed and said with a verbal look: "Yes."

……………………

The next morning, Chen Kaizhi was recruited into the palace.

He quickly walked to Wanshou Palace, where Empress Dowager Mu had already been waiting here with a few palace maids.

When she saw Chen Kaizhi in full spirit, she seemed to have more energy. She smiled and said, "Have you had a good rest yesterday?"

Chen Kaizhi looked at Empress Dowager Mu's gentle smile and felt warm for no reason in his heart, and hurriedly said, "I'll take a rest all night, and I'll keep it in mind."

Queen Mother Mu smiled and said, "I originally wanted you to rest for two more days, but my mother was anxious to see you, so she asked you to come."

Chen Kaizhi felt that Empress Dowager Mu treated him like a spring breeze, but when he thought of seeing the Empress Dowager, he cheered up a little. He felt that although Empress Dowager Mu looked like a kind old lady, Chen Kaizhi would never dare to take her lightly.

Chen Kaizhi nodded, and was about to say yes, but Empress Dowager Mu said again; "Yesterday, King Zheng and King Liang both submitted a joint report, saying that they wanted to invite the Prince of Beihai to station troops in Denglai to prevent Japanese pirates. Chen Kaizhi, what do you think about this?"

Chen Kaizhi was slightly stunned, and unexpectedly, variables arose in such a short time.

Originally, he was in control of the three prefectures of Jibei, and in addition to Jibei, there were Dengzhou and Laizhou. Now the sect kings wanted to let the princes of Beihai go to station in Denglai. In this way, the governor of the three prefectures of Jibei lost two prefectures and became a small governor of Jibei.

I think this is also an opportunity for the sect kings to take this opportunity to curb themselves.

However, their reason is justified. Now that they have to go back to the three prefectures of Jibei, the imperial court must have stationed troops. Chen Zhengdao is one of the few people in the royal family who can manage troops. It is appropriate to let him station there.

On the one hand, it is to guard against Beiyan. On the other hand, Dachen has now got the three prefectures of Jibei, which are close to the coast. I heard that there are some islands nearby, and Japanese pirates are stationed, so I have to guard against them.

Of course, another meaning may be to let Chen Zhengdao stop him. Chen Kaizhi laughed in his heart. Even if he wanted to stop him, could he stop him? He is now planning and planning for the future Jibei Jiedushi.

Chen Kaizhi looked at Empress Dowager Mu with an expressionless face and said, "Actually, both the ministers and the empress know what this means. Since the empress wants to ask, the ministers will naturally follow the empress's leader."

Speaking of these troubles, the smile on Queen Mother Mu's lips subconsciously decreased a little, and she narrowed her eyes and said, "Yes, the Ai family and you are aware of it. At present, the government and the outside world need to govern the world, relying on the royal family, but also protecting these royal families. The Ai family should agree to their request."

Queen Mother Mu looked at Chen Kaiyi deeply and said meaningfully: "You are the governor of the Ai family, but you don't care about the amount of territory. Among them, there is the intention of the Ai family. The most important thing is that you must have the name of the governor first. Okay, let's go in first, and when you see your mother, please reply carefully."

Chen Kaizhi nodded, just...

He felt more and more that Queen Mother Mu was different about herself.

The Empress Dowager is indeed very good to him, but logically speaking, although she is the confidant of Empress Dowager Mu, shouldn’t this Empress Dowager make good use of herself? But the development of things is a bit strange, it seems... the Empress Dowager won’t be interested in herself, right...

When Chen Kaizhi thought of this, his heart thrilled, and he suddenly became uneasy. Could it be that he wanted to be a concubine? Otherwise, this concern seemed to be too much.

He was actually a little lucky. Fortunately, the Emperor came to Luoyang later, otherwise he wouldn't have...

Chen Kaizhi thought uneasyly, and went in with Empress Dowager Mu.

When he arrived at the Empress Dowager, Chen Kaizhi bowed and bowed.

He was willing to give the old lady a gift, after all, this was an elder: "I have met the Empress Dowager."

"Get up, don't be too polite." The Empress Dowager looked red: "What did the Ai family say..."

She was obviously looking around. There was also a woman in the eunuchs around her, with a jewel-like spirit. She seemed to be older than Empress Dowager Mu. She was next to Empress Dowager, and she also smiled and listened carefully to Empress Dowager's words.

The Empress Dowager continued, "This is the Qilin son of the Chen family. Okay, I have regained the three prefectures of Jibei and avenged the previous shame. What a great achievement. The Ai family did not misunderstand. The royal family of Dachen should be like him. If everyone is like this, why worry about the uncertainty of the world? Come, give Kaizhi a seat and serve tea."

Chen Kaizhi sat down and when someone brought the teacup, he raised it, took a sip and said, "I am very ashamed. At that time, I was also angry, which made the court embarrassed."

Queen Mother Mu only stood aside, like a well-behaved daughter-in-law.

The Empress Dowager knelt on the desk and shook her head and said, "What the Ai family wants is your passion. Now people outside say that the Emperor of Dayan was scared out of this. The Ai family really wants to know how you fought this battle?"

Chen Kaizhi smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, it was the three tricks I used to laugh at when I was near Hangu Pass."

The Empress Dowager narrowed her eyes and sighed, "Yes, you took the Warrior Camp to protect you, but the Ai family still remembers it vividly. It can be seen that in this marching and fighting, soldiers are expensive but not too much. You are the good children and grandson of Emperor Taizu Gao. It is amazing. The Ai family has greeted Mu and I want to reward you well."

She took a sip of tea before continuing: "The children and grandchildren are not worthy. Among the royal family, you are the only one who looks at the Ai family the most."

These words made the woman standing beside the Empress Dowager panic.

When Chen Kaizhi heard this, Chen Kaizhi was shocked. The old lady said this again. What he said is that the children and grandchildren are unworthy. Which children and grandchildren are they? The biggest children and grandchildren are King Zhao, and there is also a little emperor?

In fact, these two people were also disdainful in Chen Kaizhi's heart, but the first sentence was to praise himself. Although Chen Kaizhi knew very well that King Zhao had long hated him to the core, so it doesn't matter whether he offended him or not, but... this sentence is too much hatred.

Queen Mother Mu's eyes lit up, but she was afraid that she would be caught by the keen Empress Dowager, so she quickly turned her face slightly.

The Empress Dowager in this hall seemed to be the master, as if everyone's eyebrows could not escape her eyes. She then smiled: "Chen Kaizhi, you just came back from a long journey yesterday. Are you energetic? Accompany the Ai family to the garden of Wanshou Palace?"

"Ah..." Chen Kaizhi was stunned for a moment, but said: "I obey the order."

"Come on, come and help Ai's family get up. Ai's family is old." The Empress Dowager reached out and Chen Kaizhi went forward and helped the Empress Dowager to hold him in.

The Empress Dowager stood up and just took a few steps. The Mu family and the woman and the eunuchs were also ready to leave. But at this moment, the Empress Dowager looked back and said, "It's not your business, the Ai family has something to say to Chen Kaizhi, so you don't get involved."

Queen Mother Mu and the woman hurriedly said, "Yes."

Chen Kaizhi was a little surprised and thought to himself that he had seen countless people, but he was proficient in human nature. However, he could not understand the Empress Dowager, but the old lady always had no idea what was hidden under her kind appearance.

However, Chen Kaizhi knew that if a person is smart, he could naturally be able to play with any small thoughts, but if he felt that he might not be smart enough in front of others, especially in front of an old man like the Empress Dowager, he would instead shoot himself in the foot, so he simply didn't think about it and just took a walk with the old lady in front of him.

He helped the Empress Dowager out of the main hall, and only an old eunuch followed him from afar.

The Empress Dowager and Chen Kaizhi walked to the back garden. Chen Kaizhi saw that there were many colorful flowers, countless flowers blooming, and the fragrance was under his nose. At this time, the Empress Dowager said, "It's just right now. Spring is coming. It's rare to see such a beautiful scenery again. You're here at the right time."
