Joy of Life: I dressed as a woman and became the Queen of Northern Qi!

Chapter 202 The lucky star of Northern Qi, who wouldn’t like that?

In the evening, the sun sets in the west, the moon rises high in the sky, and the night spreads from the sky, spreading to the surroundings like a tide.

Palace lanterns were hung up early in Anci Palace to add some light to the dim hall!

"Where are His Majesty and the Queen now?"

The Queen Mother lay on the couch, her chin in her hand, her eyes quietly looking at the stars gradually appearing in the sky. Her tone was very calm, as if she was asking an insignificant question.

But after hearing her question, the palace maids and eunuchs around her were so scared that they fell to their knees, even the two personal maids were no exception!

Others may not know it, but they know it very well!

The Queen Mother has been waiting for His Majesty and the Queen these past few days, from morning till night every day, but she has never seen any sign of them!
Coupled with the incident involving Chang'an Marquis Ningkang, the empress dowager was already in a bad mood and her temper became much more irritable. She has punished several palace maids and eunuchs in the past few days!

Normally speaking, as a member of the harem, the Queen should come to pay her respects every day, but until now, the Queen has never come once, and has no intention of coming after retiring from court!
Tomorrow is the Queen's coronation ceremony. As the Queen Mother of Northern Qi, she should attend the ceremony. However, the Queen and His Majesty have not come yet, which makes people feel that the Queen Mother is not welcome to the ceremony!
This must have made the Queen Mother very dissatisfied. Even though her tone was very calm, she was obviously filled with strong anger when she asked this question suddenly!
After waiting for a while, there was still no response. The empress dowager's expression suddenly turned cold. She propped herself up with her arms and sat up straight. She turned her head and looked at the eunuchs and palace maids kneeling on the ground with a little anger.

"Aren't you all talkative on weekdays? Today you discuss this, tomorrow you discuss that. Why are you silent now that I'm asking you a question?"

"Even you think I'm soft..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard hurried footsteps approaching from afar, and if he listened carefully he could hear some excited shouts.

The empress dowager looked coldly and saw a young eunuch running into the hall excitedly. Before she could say anything, the young eunuch knelt on the ground and pointed in the direction of the palace gate.

"The Queen... The Queen is here!"

Hearing his words, the Queen Mother stood up immediately, the coldness on her face instantly melted away, replaced by a look of deep surprise.

The eunuchs and palace maids who were kneeling on the ground also breathed a sigh of relief, and their hearts finally settled down.

The Queen Mother felt disappointed and angry because the Queen and His Majesty did not come. Now that the Queen has come, the disappointment and anger have naturally disappeared!

This also means that they don't have to bear the punishment of the Queen Mother!

"Why are you still kneeling here? Why don't you go and welcome the Queen in?"

"Go prepare some food, seasonal fruits and snacks!"

The Queen Mother's tone was urgent, and one could hear deep excitement in it. As she spoke, she subconsciously wanted to go out to greet him, but she suddenly stopped just as she took a step, and the joy on her face faded a lot.

She was very happy that Chen Luo came, because this meant that the affairs of Chang'an Hou Ningkang did not affect her mother-daughter relationship with Zhan Doudou!
Moreover, she has been thinking about Chen Luo, the overly beautiful daughter...Queen, ever since she last saw her!
There was nothing to do for entertainment in this huge palace. In addition, due to her special status, many of the things that others could do for entertainment were not something she could do!

She originally thought she would die lonely and old in this deep palace, but unexpectedly Chen Luo came!
Chen Luo's stunning appearance was like a phoenix so beautiful that it could not be described in words being released into a birdcage called the imperial palace!
Even if you just take a look at her, you will feel relaxed and happy, and even your lonely heart will be revitalized! But since Chen Luo returned to the palace, this is the first time he has come to see her, the Queen Mother!

No matter who saw it, it was clear that Chen Luo did not take her, the queen mother, seriously. Especially the matter of Chang'an Hou Ning Kang made her feel that Chen Luo did not care about her identity as the queen mother!
Now that Chen Luo suddenly came, if she showed too much happiness, it would seem that she, the queen mother, really had no temper and was a person with a good temper who could be bullied by anyone!
So she couldn't show excitement, on the contrary she had to show indifference, so that Chen Luo and Zhan Doudou would know that she, the queen mother, was not dead!
Thinking of this, the empress dowager's expression turned cold. She sat back on the couch again, holding her chin with her hands and pretending to close her eyes and rest.

After a while, there were faint footsteps outside the palace, and the faint voice of the palace maid could be heard. The Queen Mother couldn't help but prick up her ears, and heard the palace maid's excited voice say:

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is very happy that you can come, and she specially asked us to prepare seasonal fresh fruits and some of your favorite snacks!"

"Ever since you returned to Northern Qi, the Queen Mother has been thinking about you every day. It's really a relief that you can come now..."

The Queen Mother covered her face halfway through listening, and blushes spread all the way to her earlobes.

If there was a crack in the ground right now, she would crawl into it without hesitation!

She was still thinking about how to show her anger so that Chen Luo would remember it, but in the end she forgot the previous arrangement!
Now she was just glad that she heard these words before meeting Chen Luo. If the palace maids and eunuchs came up with fruits and snacks while she was pretending to be angry, she would be slapping herself in the face!

"Her Majesty the Queen, the Queen is here!"

The palace maid's report came from outside the palace. The empress dowager, who was still covering her face and secretly rejoicing, heard the words, and hurriedly sat up straight with a kind smile on her face.

Since Chen Luo already knew that she welcomed his arrival, there was no need to pretend anymore!
After all, her purpose was just to remind Zhan Doudou and Chen Luo that she, the queen mother, was still alive and to visit her often!
There is no need to really break off relations with Zhan Doudou and Chen Luo, to the point where they have no further contact with each other, or even sever the mother-daughter relationship!
That's not what she wants to see!
Chen Luo had just entered the hall and had not yet paid his respects when the Queen Mother came towards him, took his hand and led him to the table.

At this time, the table is already filled with seasonal fresh fruits and many exquisitely shaped snacks!
"I don't know what you like to eat, so I asked someone to bring some food here!"

"Luo'er, you must have worked really hard on this trip to Qing Kingdom!"

The Queen Mother grabbed Chen Luo's hand and looked at him with a look of heartache, her voice choked with sobs.

She couldn't be more satisfied with Chen Luo!
Since Chen Luo appeared, Northern Qi, which had been slowly heading towards destruction, has regained its vitality, and she no longer has to fight for power with Zhan Doudou!

The human heart is unpredictable, and she is really afraid that one day, this acted struggle for power will become real!

When she heard that Chen Luo was going to the border, she was so angry that she almost hit Zhan Doudou on the head.

Later, when she heard about the great victory on the border, not only did they repel the Qing Kingdom, but they also counterattacked and captured the border city of Qing Kingdom, she felt relieved, and her favorability towards Chen Luo also increased a lot!

Later, Chen Luo went deep into the enemy country and exchanged rich supplies for Northern Qi, which solved the dilemma of Northern Qi's empty treasury, constant disasters in various places, and no money and no food to deal with the disasters!

It can be said that Chen Luo is the benefactor of her, Zhan Doudou, and even the entire Northern Qi. How could she not like Chen Luo?
