Chapter 148
"The queen mother's birthday is approaching, every year at this time. My son misses the queen mother very much, so put aside the important things at hand and take a look. Is the queen mother healthy?"

He uttered the word "Ankang" very heavily.

Qinghan looked straight at the Queen Mother with a meaningful look.

The Buddhist beads in the Empress Dowager's hand were suddenly clenched, and she turned to look at him with burning eyes.

Nanny Li, who was standing behind the queen mother, quickly lowered her head, looking terrified.

The air pressure in the main hall, which was originally low, is now even lower.

"Aijia, very healthy!"

After a long time, the Empress Dowager bit her lips and said this sentence, holding the hand of the prayer beads tightly, not only did not let go, but even tighter.

I knew he would come here in a few days.

Every year he would ask this sentence, every year.
Nanny Li behind her was so frightened that she didn't even dare to breathe.

Every year as the ninth day approaches, the empress dowager and the emperor are incompatible
"It's good for the mother's health and well-being. It's the children who are worrying too much."

The man's thin lips pursed into a line were slightly hooked, and the curve outlined implied sarcasm.

In the past 19 years, she has never had a bad conscience?
Yes, she doesn't, because she doesn't have a heart at all.

"After all these years, you are still very unfamiliar with Aijia."

The Empress Dowager's breathing became heavier, and her breathing could be clearly heard mixed with dull displeasure in the silent hall.

"When did the mother get close to the son?"

The man asked back, his eyes were as deep as an abyss, and the emotions in them were intertwined, making it difficult to see through his mood at this time.

After saying this, the Empress Dowager looked away and did not speak for a long time.

She loosened her clenched hands and moved the beads slowly. She deliberately did not make eye contact with Ling Juncheng, and moved the beads slowly to urgently.

What happened 19 years ago, I regret not once to the end.

The troubles left behind have made me have nightmares in the past 19 years, and I can't survive for a moment!
"Queen, the tea is cold."

Seeing that the momentum was not right, Nanny Li whispered a reminder in the Queen Mother's ear in order to ease the atmosphere.

The queen mother squinted at the teacup beside her, and after a while, she stretched out her hand and slowly lifted it to her lips.

"When the tea is cold, it can be warmed up, but when the heart is cold, it is difficult to keep warm."

When she was opening her lips to drink tea, Ling Juncheng's dull voice came to her eardrums clearly.

The movement of her hands stopped, and she put the teacup back on the coffee table.

"Aijia, I never thought of going to cover it."

In a word, she said it very firmly without any hesitation.

Ling Juncheng got up and glanced at her indifferently.

"Ling Yuan is coming back, just don't let him feel cold. On the ninth day of the lunar new year, I will still hold the queen mother's birthday banquet in a beautiful and decent way."

After saying that, he turned around and left the hall, his clothes fluttering and his steps heavy.

Looking at Ling Juncheng's leaving back until the back disappeared into her eyes, the queen mother stood up suddenly from the stool, twitching the corners of her lips, her eyes were cold.

"Empress Dowager, please drink some tea, don't take the emperor's words to heart."

Nanny Li quickly poured another cup of hot tea and served it.

"When the Ai family gave birth to him, he should have been strangled to death!"

The Empress Dowager slapped the armrest of the seat with her palm, her expression was distorted and terrifying because of being too angry, and she lost her original solemnity.

Nanny Li's body couldn't help trembling, she lowered her head deeply, not daring to say anything.

When Mu Wang comes back, the sky in Kyoto will probably change
