Chapter 624 Is the Empress Dowager Jealous?
Too late?
When everyone present heard the officials' words, they were surprised.
The blood on Deng Wensheng's face seemed to be instantly pulled away and turned pale. His feet swayed, and Wu Shen collapsed on the chair.
The arrival of the Empress Dowager means that his official uniform will be stripped off immediately.
All the scenery of the past ended.
Chen Mu also raised his eyebrows slightly, revealing a hint of shock.
He was very confused. The Empress Dowager actually appeared in Fenghua City at such a critical moment. It was a coincidence that she came here.
The last time there was a change in Dongzhou City, the Empress Dowager and the Little Emperor also appeared.
So will the little emperor arrive this time?
Bai Xianyu around him was also confused.
The last time she left Beijing, the Queen Mother did not reveal her tone of coming to Fenghua City. Why did she suddenly come at risk again?
This is really in danger.
You should know that although Fenghua City is not as complicated as Dongzhou City, it is in a remote area on the border, with mixed fish and dragons. If someone is interested in learning the news, it will definitely cause a lot of disasters.
Even the enemy country will take action.
While thinking, the eunuch's sharp and familiar voice came from outside the door: "The Empress Dowager is here-"
As several elite guards of the Saint Yi Zun rushed into the hall and drove all the idle people away, a luxurious and exquisite Saint sedan was slowly carried into the courtyard.
The female officials and servants stood respectfully on both sides.
Deng Wensheng and his officials had no time to think too much, and rushed out of the hall, kneeling in front of the sedan chair and saluted.
"Deng Wensheng, the governor of Fenghua City, met with the Empress Dowager, who was a thousand years old and a thousand years old."
"The Queen Mother Qiansheng..."
“…”
The officials bowed their heads and bowed, and they didn't dare to breathe for a moment.
When the late emperor passed away and the empress dowager gradually took power, Fenghua City also experienced some internal turmoil.
Many officials relied on the high mountains and the emperor's distance, and under the instigation of those who are interested in the capital, they verbally criticized the empress dowager, and even threatened to overthrow the empress dowager's tyranny.
As a result, they were greeted by a bloody battle from the Nether Guard.
In the end, there were very few officials who could stay.
After being beaten hard, the officials who took office became extremely honest.
It is Deng Wensheng, who is a role model in Qingliu. Although he often impeached Bai Xianyu and other Mingwei, he dared not be disrespectful to the Empress Dowager at all.
After all, officials who can achieve this position are not idiots.
"Xiao Yuer pays homage to the Queen Mother."
Bai Xianyu gently folded her white skirt and stepped forward to kneel down.
Chen Mu naturally did not kneel down. He relied on his token of the Apocalypse Guard and his identity as a marquis, bowed his hand very perfunctorily: "Chen Mu pays homage to the Queen Mother."
The goddess did not kneel down, but just nodded slightly and lowered her eyebrows.
She was dressed in plain clothes and was like a snow lotus blooming on the top of an iceberg, standing beside Chen Mu, with neither humble nor arrogant expression.
These two people have the same sense of a golden boy and a jade girl.
The atmosphere present was dead silent.
The sedan was quiet, and there was no sound.
The officials who were kneeling down on the ground pressed their heads against the cold ground one by one, even breathing carefully.
After a moment, a white wrist was as frost, and a delicate and delicate hand gently pushed away the curtain of the sedan chair.
The female official next to her quickly lifted up the curtain of the sedan chair.
The empress dowager in the sedan chair sat upright as if she were a chariot.
He wore a phoenix crown embroidered with gold wire and decorated with pearls and gemstones. His clothes were made of large sleeves and interlaced collars, and his embroidered golden phoenix patterns were decorated with graceful and noble temperament.
A small string of pearl earrings were worn on the crystal-clear earlobes.
However, she wore a mask made of white jade, embroidered with golden phoenixes.
The mask has a soft and noble outline, and it has a bit of majesty.
Seeing the empress dowager stand up, Bai Xianyu, who was kneeling down, stepped forward to support the other party's arm and carefully helped him out of the sedan chair.
The Empress Dowager raised her hand and gently pushed Bai Xianyu away and walked towards the hall.
The skirt is long and drags the ground. When the lotus steps, a pair of gold-line embroidered shoes wrapped around their feet are faintly exposed, leaving a faint fragrance of musk orchid scent.
After passing Chen Mu, the man subconsciously shrugged his nose.
He frowned without feeling.
This fragrance seems to be a little familiar.
"Let's go flat."
The Queen Mother sat upright on the sandalwood chair directly above the hall, with her jade hands folded on her knees, and her cool and beautiful eyes under the mask were not stained with any emotion.
Even Chen Mu didn't take a look after she walked out of the sedan chair.
The officials thanked each other and stood respectfully on both sides.
Deng Wen fucked his teeth and bowed: "I don't know that the Empress Dowager was here and failed to greet him. It is a sin. I hope the Empress Dowager will forgive me."
"It's not your fault. The Ai family came here secretly and did not inform you."
The Queen Mother's voice is clear and elegant, with a bit of purity.
Deng Wensheng opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say for a moment, so he stood there blankly, shaped like a stagnant wood.
The scene fell into an awkward and depressing atmosphere.
"Tell me what's going on now."
Obviously, the Queen Mother already knew the current situation in Fenghua City, but she did not get too angry in her words.
Deng Wensheng let out a light sigh and quickly explained the current situation carefully.
How many people die, how many people change, how many people are isolated...
What are the protective measures outside the city?
Then he praised Chen Mu vigorously and said bluntly that Chen Mu was the hero of Fenghua City. He hesitated for a moment about his crimes, but he still didn't have the courage to mention them, so he left them to Chen Mu to expose them.
After listening to Deng Wensheng's statement, the Empress Dowager gently tapped the back of her hand with her tender fingers and fell into deep thought.
Bai Xianyu served tea and placed it gently on the table next to it.
Chen Mu stood on the other side casually, never speaking, and his face was not good-looking.
It looks quite like she is shy of the empress dowager.
This should be the first time he has truly seen the Queen Mother's true form. Before, the other party talked to him through a curtain.
Although I regret not seeing my face, my graceful figure made Chen Mu feel a little imaginative.
The wife once said that the Empress Dowager was a great beauty, which made him quite questioned.
Even if you can't see your face now, just this temperament and figure are enough to surprise him, especially...
Chen Mu's eyes unconsciously landed on the area under the other person's neck.
The other party was wearing a wide robe, but he still couldn't hide the ups and downs of beautiful curves. Such a mind was amazing.
Chen Mu once had some good feelings for Miss Xia.
After all, things are precious because they are rare.
None of the women around me can compare with her in hard conditions.
But now when I saw the upgraded deluxe version, I suddenly felt that Miss Xia was no longer good, and her interest gradually disappeared.
While Chen Mu was quietly looking at the other party, the Empress Dowager was also observing the situation in the house.
But her eyes were more focused on the goddess.
She has seen a goddess.
That year, when the goddess was sixteen years old, she went to Beijing to discuss the Tao.
Although he was young, his beautiful face amazed the entire capital and was named the world's number one beauty.
Since then, she has never seen each other again.
Now we meet again, time has describing this woman a bit of unique charm that is not the world, truly interpreting the word "Immortal".
But seeing the goddess and Chen Mu seem to be a little close, the empress dowager's heart inexplicably felt annoyed.
It seems that a sourness gradually spreads in my heart.
Changes in the state of mind change the momentum that one exudes.
The already cold hall is even colder.
The officials were so scared that their calves trembled slightly, and sweat beads poured out of their foreheads, as if they had expected the next thunderous wrath of the queen mother.
However, surprisingly, the Wrath of Thunder did not come.
After a long silence, the Queen Mother said lightly: "You guys retreat first, Chen Mu, Xiao Yuer, and... the goddess stayed."

[Author's words: Next, I plan to water the daily plot for a few days, focusing on developing the emotional scene between the queen mother and the goddess. The remaining Pisces case should be sorted out before continuing, and try to streamline it as much as possible. Tiandesity Valley is a bit too slow.]
