Chapter 1132
Emperor Mingde originally had no empress, and the position of empress remained vacant for many years. This was also the result of the struggle between him and the empress dowager.
The Empress Dowager wanted to promote the mother of Prince Jin as the Empress, but Emperor Mingde refused. In this matter, Emperor Mingde was extremely determined, which made the Empress Dowager and the Li family unhappy.
In his early years, Emperor Mingde intended to make Prince Ling's mother, Concubine Zhen, the empress, and the ceremony was already being prepared. However, an accident happened in the middle of the process and Concubine Zhen died.
Since then, the rear seat has remained vacant.
Among the people waiting here now, the one with the highest status is still Prince Jin’s mother, Concubine Rong.
But seeing that her eyes were red, and she glanced at Shi Anxia standing in the corner, she was filled with hatred.
When Concubine Rong heard that the "charcoal seller" was Prince Consort Haiyan, there were naturally smart people around her who analyzed the situation for her.
Assuming that Prince Consort Haiyan was really the charcoal seller, then the person who changed the puzzle and embarrassed her son under the nose of the Imperial Guards on the Lantern Festival was most likely the Prince Consort.
Her son suffered setbacks after making a fool of himself on the Lantern Festival, and finally had to sneak back to Beijing from his fiefdom like a thief.
All this is thanks to Princess Haiyan and her husband.
If the Empress Dowager had not repeatedly warned her to wait and see what happened and not to act rashly, Concubine Rong would have stepped forward and slapped Shi Anxia twice to vent her anger.
But at this moment, she could only stare at this so-called Phoenix Girl with her peripheral vision.
Phoenix girl, Phoenix girl! Concubine Rong doesn't believe in Phoenix girl at all!
After an unknown amount of time, Eunuch Qi came out of the inner hall, sweating profusely, his eyes full of tears, "Princess Haiyan, Prince Consort Haiyan, the Emperor invites you."
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of those standing in the hall all had indescribable expressions.
When Anxia and Cen Yuan were about to follow Eunuch Qi into the inner hall, they heard a voice of "The Empress Dowager has arrived" echoing throughout Chaoyang Hall.
The Queen Mother arrived.
She was carried in, bringing with her a strong fragrance, exuding dignity and luxury.
She was wearing a gorgeous dress embroidered with gold and phoenixes.
The dress is based on the royal bright yellow color, with a phoenix spreading its wings as if ready to fly embroidered with gold and silver threads. It looks lifelike, as if it could fly high at any time, symbolizing the supremacy of imperial power and the queen's noble status.
The hem of the dress is wide, and in the summer it covers the legs in layers.
Several carefully carved magnolia flowers were cleverly interspersed in her hair, embellishing her bun. The emerald rings on her fingertips complemented her outfit, and every detail revealed the royal nobility and refinement.
The Empress Dowager has not been seen for a long time. This is her first high-profile appearance since she was imprisoned in Xishan.
Everyone in the hall knelt down and bowed, "May the Empress Dowager be blessed with good health."
The Queen Mother had not enjoyed such honor for a long time, and she was reluctant to ask anyone to stand up. She looked down at the kneeling person, and finally her eyes fell on Shi Anxia.
She looked at the reborn Phoenix Girl with a cold gaze, and after a moment, she ordered people to carry her straight into the inner hall.
Eunuch Qi hurriedly chased after him, but as soon as he reached the palace gate, he was locked outside by the Empress Dowager's guards.
The guards carried the sedan chair that the Empress Dowager was sitting in to the front of Emperor Mingde's bed and put it down before they all withdrew.
On the couch, Emperor Mingde slowly opened his dark eyelids and saw the Empress Dowager dressed as if she was attending a grand ceremony. He smiled bitterly, "The Empress Dowager finally murdered me."
