After time travel, my best friend and I exchanged supplies and became a rich woman

At this time, Chen Dongyue, who was standing at the door, also saw a plump white old lady sitting under the flower stand in the yard.

I don’t know if it was because I was hungry, but when Chen Dongyue saw the old lady for the first time, a word popped into his mind: soft and fluffy.

Soft and fluffy, big Shandong steamed buns.

I kind of want to pinch it.

"Director Chen," Ji Chongning cleared his throat and said seriously, "You are meeting the Grand Empress Dowager, and you still don't perform the salute?"

Chen Dongyue finally came out of his fantasy about steamed buns, took a few steps forward, and then bowed and said, "I am Chen Dongyue, your humble servant, and I pay my respects to the Empress Dowager."

She performed the rituals of a man.

The Empress Dowager frowned slightly and glanced at Ji Chongning who was standing behind Chen Dongyue.

Ji Chongning raised an eyebrow at the Empress Dowager...

The Empress Dowager, who originally wanted to say something, could only let out an "ah" and signaled Chen Dongyue to excuse herself.

Then he waved at her and said, "Come, come near me and let me see what is the difference between the first female general of our Darong Dynasty and others."

"You don't have to..." Ji Chongning whispered with concern. After saying only three words, Chen Dongyue trotted forward and came in front of the Empress Dowager.

When the Empress Dowager saw Ji Chongning was about to follow, she waved her hand at him and said, "Go and get Imperial Physician Yao, why are you still standing here? I can't eat Director Chen..."

After all, I'm getting older and my appetite isn't as good as it used to be.

Chen Dongyue also turned to Ji Chongning and said, "Go and do your thing."

How could she be afraid of a soft old lady?

Although he was worried about Chen Dongyue, looking at the imperial doctors and palace doctors who were kneeling down to him under the eaves not far away, Ji Chongning could only tell Chen Dongyue and the old lady, "Don't chat nonsense, I'll be back soon."

Then he turned around and ran out.

The Empress Dowager muttered, "I am a person who talks nonsense!"

"That's right," Chen Dongyue quickly agreed, "I am also a very serious person. I will never lie in front of the Empress Dowager."

"Oh?!" The Empress Dowager, who was sitting on a stone bench, looked up at Chen Dongyue twice before she said, "Tell me, how serious are you?"

Eh?

How rigorous...

Chen Dongyue tilted his head and thought for a while, then pretended to be crazy and said, "If I can eat two bowls of rice, I will definitely not eat one bowl."

The Empress Dowager, who had never heard such an outrageous answer in her life, was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing.

But when she looked up, she saw the imperial physician with a worried look on his face under the eaves. The poor old lady could only cover up her laughter with a cough.

Min Shanggong was also very considerate and quickly brought a cup of cold tea to the Grand Empress Dowager, "Grand Empress Dowager, you are choking on the wind. Drink some water quickly."

The cicada on the flower stand suddenly started crying "Ahhhhhhhhh".

Chen Dongyue looked up at the motionless leaves...

well.

As expected of someone who came out of the palace, his ability to tell lies with open eyes is even better than hers.

The slightly embarrassed Empress Dowager drank half a cup of tea from the hand of Min Shanggong under Chen Dongyue's smiling eyes.

After she had adjusted her mood, she said to Chen Dongyue, "Chen Dongyue, do you always speak so honestly?"

"In reply to the Empress Dowager," Chen Dongyue smiled sincerely, "We country folk really value honesty.

I am used to speaking my mind on a daily basis. If there is anything wrong with what I said, I hope the Empress Dowager will forgive me."

"That cannot be forgiven," the Empress Dowager shook her head, "I have a bad temper, I cannot stand harsh words, and I also like to sentence others to death, so you..."

"Then I will try to speak softly." Chen Dongyue replied in a whisper.

'puff'

The old lady almost laughed again.

She glared at Chen Dongyue.

Chen Dongyue opened her mouth, but this time she spoke without even a whisper.

That was kind of funny actually.

The Empress Dowager pursed her lips tightly, afraid that she would laugh out loud as soon as she opened her mouth.

The emperor is still in the room, his life or death unknown, and now you are outside laughing and joking, which is really a bit inappropriate...

Although she was the one who had someone give her that aphrodisiac.

But she just wanted the emperor to die all at once, not to be half dead like this.

Alas, when she thought of this, the corners of the Empress Dowager's mouth, which had been raised too much, suddenly bent in the opposite direction.

She was getting old and confused. In fact, she should have just had someone kill the emperor instead of stealing him away.

This would save us the trouble of waking him up now.

What was she thinking when she stole the emperor?!

Oh~~~~~By the way, if she ordered someone to kill the emperor and someone discovered it, then she would have to kill those who discovered it.

But the person who discovers it may also tell more people.

Wouldn't it mean that the more people are killed, the more people there are......

If you think about it this way, stealing the emperor doesn't seem to be wrong, right?

At least a massacre was avoided, right?

Thinking in this way, the Empress Dowager felt logical again.

Then I was happy again.

She turned around and asked Chen Dongyue, "Where were we talking about just now?"

"Speaking of..." Chen Dongyue was actually wondering what kind of honor the emperor lying in the room had, and whether he could die or live, so she was distracted.

The Empress Dowager suddenly asked her where she was talking about just now, and Chen Dongyue couldn't remember it at once.

She scratched her head and asked the Queen Mother, "What did we start talking about?"

".......Are you asking me, or am I asking you?" The Empress Dowager pretended to be angry.

"You asked me," Chen Dongyue answered honestly, "and then I asked you again."

"......Forget it, let's not talk about what we said before." The Empress Dowager gave up, "Tell me how you became such a close friend of Chongning?"

"Inseparable friends?" Chen Dongyue covered her chest in surprise. "It seems that Master Wen and I are not as close as inseparable friends, right?"

"You dislike him?!" The Empress Dowager was really unhappy this time.

Chen Dongyue waved his hands quickly, "How dare I! Master Wen is of noble birth, has great literary and military skills, and is a good person. I am just a small seventh-rank lieutenant, I really don't dare to say that I am your close friend."

"Hmm~~~" The Empress Dowager nodded with satisfaction, "That's good enough. I almost wanted to kill you. Amitabha, I almost committed a sin again.

Tell me, how did you and Chongning become...acquainted?"

"Let me think about it carefully~~~~~" Chen Dongyue started to think with her neck stiffened. Suddenly, she slapped her thigh, "Oh!! It might be that there was a time when we went up the mountain to suppress bandits, and then we joined forces to kill the bandit leader.

I guess from that time on, Master Ji... Wen thought that I might be able to lend a hand, and was willing to talk to me occasionally. "

"Chongning also went up the mountain to suppress the bandits?!" The Empress Dowager was a little surprised, "Why didn't he tell me?"

Chen Dongyue thought, because I was the one who killed the bandit leader! What the hell is he talking about?

But she didn't dare say so.

"Haha, low-key. Master Wen is somewhat low-key." This was Chen Dongyue's official answer.

"That's true," the Empress Dowager nodded and said, "Chongning is a child who lives up to his name, very literary."

what!

Haha!

If the location, atmosphere, and situation weren't inappropriate, Chen Dongyue would have loved to have made the world laugh forever.

If Ji Chongning were a "literary" person, there would probably be no "Tao" person in the world.

However, despite thinking so, Chen Dongyue still nodded reluctantly in front of the Empress Dowager.
