1642 Empress Dowager Yan

Nan Hua walked into the residency area. 

It has been years since the last time she paid a visit to Yi Shang Temple, but she could remember the basic layout. It hadn't changed that much aside from the fact that some buildings were demolished and some buildings were rebuilt.

The place where Empress Dowager Yang was definitely very good.

With the wealth she carried, she wouldn't want to torture herself even if she was no longer living in the prosperous area.

"Who is it?"

"General Jun is here to pay a visit to Empress Dowager Yan." Nan Hua cupped her fist politely when she saw the maidservant.

"General Jun?" The maidservant was confused. Having stayed in the temple for so many years, she hadn't heard about the outside news for a long period of time. Jun Hua's rise to fame could be considered recent, so many people were still unfamiliar with her name.

However, the guards who came naturally knew this name.

Knowing that their kingdom now had two female generals, there was no way that these guards wouldn't feel awe. 

It was rare to see powerful female figures.

"General Jun is a powerful general personally appointed by His Majesty in recent years." The guard looked at the maidservant.

The maidservant nodded. "Why does your esteemed figure would like to meet with Her Highness?"

"This general had heard of Empress Dowager Yan's story and would like to discuss about some matters with her," Nan Hua explained unhurriedly. 

"Please wait for a while."

The maidservant ran inside to relay Nan Hua's words to Empress Dowager Yan.

Empress Dowager Yan, Yan Jin Nian, had been staying on the garden leisurely. Her health was not good but the environment in Yi Shang Temple was really good. It allowed her to recuperate to a certain extent without the need to worry about her health failing.

For Yan Jin Nian, this was the best retirement environment.

The messy palace and everything that happened back then was thrown to the back of her mind. 

She knew that she wouldn't live long and thus, being able to live to the fullest had become her goal in this life. 

"Your Highness, General Jun came to meet you."

"General Jun?" Yan Jin Nian raised her head. For the past few years, she stayed away from the outside matter. Even though she could still hear the news of some her former comrades from her previous world, she didn't care too much for them.

Long Qian Xing was still the same arrogant b*stard and busy making his name on the battlefield as a general. There was no way she wouldn't hear anything about him.

Fang Sheng Lin was being used by that prime minister from Zhang Xu Kingdom and it was impossible for Yan Jin Nian not to know about this name. It had resounded loud and clear during the time when she was in this place.

Of course, what was famous was his notoriety.

Yan Jin Nian simple felt that muscle head was truly simple and stupid to be used by other people. 

Strategist Song had also started to make his name by defeating the people on the north and now starting to breach into Fei Yang Kingdom. This was one of the few worries that some people had been saying.

Luo Qing Wei was famous in Shi Long Kingdom, treating countless people and many people were trying to court her. But that innocent princess was still lurking on the back, only wanting to learn more about medicine and cure more people.

She was willing to cure more people but the people around her would not allow everyone to come forward in front of her. Only some people were allowed to appear in front of her and interacted with Luo Qing Wei directly. 

Yan Jin Nian didn't have the ambitions and energy like these few people who were busy making name for themselves in this era. She would like to become a salted fish and just enjoy the result of her retirement.

The relationship with her family members were still strained.

But Yan Jin Nian didn't have any intention to go forward because she was truly afraid of what she might see.

Thus, aside from some of her personal problems, she could be said to be forgotten by most people by this time.

"This is the general who had been named by His Majesty personally, right?" Yan Jin Nian frowned, trying to recall the news from outside. 

Even if she stayed holed here, she still had to know some basic news. If she didn't know anything, she was worried that some annoying b**** would come forward and drag her to the mud once more.

She had worked so hard to earn this peaceful retirement.

Those who dared to drag her down again would be facing her wrath.

"Yes, Your Highness."

"Did she say the reason for her visit?" Empress Dowager Yan asked leisurely, not feeling pressured just because the other party is a general. For her, her status was already high enough and there were few people whom she needed to truly pay courtesy.

Emperor Yang Zhou was one.

And the other… well her family members if they were to come.

"General Jun only said that she had heard of your name and wanted to discuss some matters with you, Your Highness," the maidservant replied.

Discuss some matters?

Yan Jin Nian was sure that she had never met with this General Jun Hua in the past. Why would the other party want to see her?

Forget it.

She was not doing anything here anyway.

And as a general who was personally appointed by the Emperor, she better gave some face to the other party.

"Let her come."

"Yes, Your Highness."

The maidservant bowed and then walked out, wanting to invite Nan Hua come.

Yan Jin Nian was still relaxing on the chair when she saw Nan Hua came. At this moment, her expression cracked a bit as she felt that her worldview has been completely shattered.
