Canglan Empress

Chapter 369 The Death of Yin Zhuo 1
When it comes to Yin Zhuo, one has to mention the empress dowager who is now in a semi-reclusive state, the emperor's biological mother.

Before Emperor Tiande ascended the throne, he was the eldest son of Qing Palace.

The Empress Dowager was originally Princess Qing, her maiden name was Yin.

There are six brothers and sisters in Princess Qing's generation, of course including the concubine and the concubine, and only the youngest brother Yin Tingzhi, who is eight years younger than the elder sister, is a compatriot with Princess Qing.

When Princess Qing was young, she loved her younger brother here very much. When she married Prince Qing and became a princess, her younger brother Yin Tingzhi was less than ten years old.

Because King Qing had thoughts about the throne when he was alive, Princess Qing acted very low-key, and did not dare to be too close to her natal family, for fear of causing trouble to her husband and natal family.

Later, several brothers of King Qing had accidents one after another, and the emperor had no heirs. King Qing's son was immediately taken into the palace as a prince to teach. King Qing and Princess Qing acted more and more like walking on eggshells until his son ascended the throne at the age of 17.

King Qing thought he would have the opportunity to intervene in government affairs as the emperor's father, but he did not expect to be assassinated during his son's enthronement ceremony, and King Qing died on the spot.

Concubine Qing, who became the empress dowager, was frightened and took a long time to recuperate before she calmed down.

Although her husband was assassinated, it didn't have much impact on her. From Concubine Qing to Empress Dowager of a country, her status rose rapidly, and she instantly became the most noble woman in the world.

In charge of the power of the harem, and her son is the king of a country, Princess Qing finally no longer needs to be as cautious as before, so she wants to make up for the debt she owed her younger brother in those years.

At that time, King Yinjun had already married and established a business, and had a daughter.

After the emperor got married, he chose his concubine, and the queen mother wanted her niece to be the queen, but she was flatly rejected by her own son. At the beginning, there was some estrangement between mother and child because of this matter.

However, in order to reassure his mother, Emperor Tiande bestowed upon his uncle Yin Tingzhi the title of County King, which has been inherited for three generations. Although he has no real power, he will not worry about being rich and honored all his life.

At first the Empress Dowager was also a little reconciled, but Emperor Tiande didn't know what she said to her later, and from then on, Empress Dowager Yin hid in the deep palace, enjoying the glory, and never cared about anything that happened outside.

Although Emperor Tiande ruled the country strictly, he was extremely filial to his mother. Apart from not giving him real power, he could meet many requirements—for example, allowing the daughter of King Yinjun to accompany the Queen Mother in the palace from time to time.

After succeeding to the throne, the government was busy, and Emperor Tiande could only take time to have a meal with the Queen Mother occasionally. In contrast, his cousin Yin Jia, who was ten years younger than him, did more filial piety in front of the Queen Mother than he did.

Therefore, the Empress Dowager Yin loved this niece Yin Jia even more.

Three years after Emperor Tiande succeeded to the throne, the [-]th year King Yin Zhuo had this precious son Yin Zhuo. The Yin family was almost boiling, not to mention how many rewards the queen mother gave, since then Yin Zhuo has truly become the queen mother He Yin Junwang's eyeballs are afraid of melting in his mouth, and afraid of falling when he holds them in his hands.

It is no exaggeration to say that Yin Zhuo was more beautiful than the princes when he was born, and his life went smoothly in the days to come, much more comfortable than the princes.

Emperor Tiande used to say at that time that the empress dowager's love for the emperor's grandchildren was not as good as that of Yin's nephew alone.

However, as long as the imperial power was not involved, he would just say that he would not interfere with the Queen Mother—the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty knew in their hearts that the most taboo thing for Emperor Tiande was to allow his relatives to control the imperial power.
