Beijing...

"Your Majesty, I don't know how many chapters were stamped and how many edicts were written at that time. How could I know that Empress Jiang was resurrected? This, what should I do?" The Supreme Emperor sat on the side and said.

He was in such a hurry that he didn't even know how many edicts he signed and how many seals he stamped. He didn't even read carefully the edict that restored Queen Mother Jiang as Queen Mother.

Qi Xingyun felt depressed.

"I ate too much yesterday, and am feeling a little bloated and feeling unwell. Can you please go back to the palace for now?" The Supreme Emperor looked at Qi Xingyun who was speechless and said with a smile.

Um?

Qi Xingyun was silent. The Emperor was still very smart and did not stick to the pan.

The family banquet was attended by all the relatives of the Qi clan, and of course there were people from far and near. Most of the people in the banquet upstairs were the brothers of the Supreme Emperor and his heirs.

This naturally includes Qi Xingyun, who is the emperor and sits on the main seat, but there is another seat next to him.

Qi Xingyun knew who was sitting there. It was not that Queen Zhao wanted to sit here...

This seat is the seat of Empress Dowager Jiang.

Everyone has already arrived.

Qi Xingyun didn't like this kind of family banquet very much, and he missed it again and again. This time, the Ministry of Internal Affairs took the lead in organizing this family banquet. When it was said that the emperor was coming, these princes and princes ran faster than anyone else and rushed to the banquet hall.

within.

The only one missing was Queen Mother Jiang, so everyone was eagerly waiting for Queen Mother Jiang to come over.

"The Emperor still puts his health first, and he mainly focuses on recuperation on weekdays. He asked the imperial doctor from the Royal Hospital to come and take a look at the Emperor." Qi Xingyun agreed with the Emperor's statement and approved his trick of escaping from the battle.

"Wang Yun, are you ready for the banquet?" Qi Xingyun asked with a smile on his face.

This time, the old party headed by Empress Dowager Jiang came back again and held most of the ministers of the Qi Dynasty in their hands.

Wang Yun said in a low voice: "The dishes are all delivered from the Shangshan Building outside Xihua Gate. We can start the banquet as soon as the Queen Mother arrives."

"Do we need to send food from outside the palace?" Qi Xingyun asked.

Wang Yun shook his head and said: "Since the emperor returned to Beijing, the incident of the Wenhua Tower being haunted has emerged. Before the ghost was caught, I was really worried about the food ingredients of the Imperial Food Bureau."

"Several eunuchs who were testing the dishes have already died."

Qi Xingyun took a deep breath, sat up straight, nodded and said, "Then the food will be delivered from Shangshan Tower. Why don't you report it?"

Qi Xingyun knew that the situation was tense and that the old party was counterattacking fiercely, but he never thought that in this palace, several of Wang Yun's internal servants had died.

"Someone in the Imperial Food Bureau is suppressing this matter. I only found out about the death today. The first bite the Emperor took when he returned to the capital was the food from Shangshan Restaurant." Wang Yun wiped the sweat from his forehead.

If it weren't for the haunting that gave Wang Yun an insight, the person who died while trying the food might not have been the eunuch from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but Wang Yun himself.

Qi Xingyun nodded and rubbed his face vigorously.

Mrs. Jiang came later.

Empress Dowager Jiang wears a emerald crown with dragon and phoenix pearls, a colorful robe with zhai patterns, the collar, sleeves and hem are all edged with red cloud and dragon patterns, her waist is decorated with dark green covering her knees, she also hangs white jade double pendants and jade ribbon rings and other accessories, and she wears green stockings and green stockings.

Sitting on a soft sedan chair carried by eight people.

From far to near.

There were crowds of servants in front of her and behind her, but before anyone arrived, the eunuch who had sent the message had already reached the banquet hall from Funing Palace.

Concubine Xia arranged for her to live in Funing Palace under Qi Xingyun. Within a few days, she was forced to move to an elegant and unique small building again.

The vacated Funing Palace was naturally given to the Empress Dowager.

"Wang Yun, look at it, look at it. When I go out, there are dozens of servants in front and behind me, and there is a big banquet and a canopy. There are also bird cages hanging on the big banquet carried by eight people. What is this?

This is nobility and elegance.”

"I go out every day, pull a modified car left behind by four horses, and that's it. Learn from me!" Qi Xingyun said to Wang Yun with a smile.

"The emperor doesn't like ostentation and keeps everything simple. If I really act like this and arrange for the emperor, the emperor will have to kick me." Wang Yun gave Qi Xingyun a cup of tea and said with a smile.

If the emperor really wants to show off, how much money will he have? What kind of scene can't be staged?

"Important ministers say that this arrogance is supported by the people sitting on it. The emperor just makes a bullock cart and wears ordinary clothes. The people of Qi also recognize the emperor, but not the Empress Dowager Jiang." Wang Yun said angrily.

said.

"How can you, the ancestor of this capital, be the ancestor of this capital?" Qi Xingyun patted Wang Yun and said.

However, this was also the reason why Empress Dowager Jiang rose to power. The Emperor of Da Qi was away from the capital all the year round, and Zhang Tingyu, the elder in charge, was not easy to get involved in clan affairs.

Tang Jinghui, who was guarding the official department, was a member of the Empress Dowager. Da Qi had been in turmoil in recent years, and there was a huge talent gap.

"Ouch, two white elephants were groomed?" Qi Xingyun looked at Queen Mother Jiang's honor guard and stood up. There were actually two white elephants following him.

This ostentation is much more luxurious than when the Emperor was the Emperor!

As the Emperor of Qi, the person Qi Xingyun could stand up to greet was naturally the Empress Dowager Jiang.

Queen Mother Jiang stopped at the door of the banquet building, and with the support of two palace maids, she entered the banquet building. The originally lively banquet building became silent, and all the clan members bowed their heads and shouted: "I have seen the Queen Mother.

The Empress Dowager An Tai."

"Wang Yun, there are many women and children in the palace, please turn around and take the two white elephants to Shangshan Tower to stew them for me." Qi Xingyun turned around and gave instructions.

"Ah? Hey, okay." Wang Yun grinned and said: "Elephant meat is not delicious, but the two tusks are suitable for making chopsticks. Last time, the emperor said that the New Year was approaching, and he wanted to give it to the border generals as a new year's gift.

I think this ivory product is quite good."

Qi Xingyun nodded with a smile and said: "Sure."

The conversation between Qi Xingyun and Wang Yun was not loud, but in the silent banquet building, even the ants in the corner heard these two sentences.

Qi Xingyun slowly walked down the platform, walked to Empress Dowager Jiang, and held Empress Dowager Jiang's arm. The person holding her on the other side was also Qi Xingchen.

Qi Xingyun glanced at Qi Xingchen and ignored him. He helped Empress Dowager Jiang sit on the second seat on the platform.

"When I met the emperor, he was only three years old. At that time, he was running all over the streets and could not be caught. Now he is so big." Queen Mother Jiang's first words were full of kindness and care for the younger generation.

"People will grow up." Qi Xingyun responded with a smile. He served Empress Dowager Jiang with vegetables, looking like a loving grandmother and a filial emperor.

Qi Xingyun can still achieve this superficial level of maintaining human relations and maintaining prosperity.

Empress Dowager Jiang said with a nostalgic look on her face: "In the past few years since the emperor ascended the throne, from Da Qi south to Qiongzhou north, people have been singing about the heroic martial arts of Da Qi Emperor. I have been listening to the Taoist priests in Lushan all my life. The emperor is the reincarnation of the Taoist ancestor of the Sanqing Dynasty. Now he is
