In fact, both Empress Dowager Xia and Empress Dowager Huayang treated Ying Zheng very well.
"I'll go now."
Ying Zheng stood up.
Empress Dowager Hua Yang lived in Hua Yang Palace.
Empress Dowager Xia lived in Zhiyang Palace.
"Today, the two Empress Dowager are waiting for you in the Huayang Palace.”
Zhao Gao followed Ying Zheng out of Zhangtai Palace, followed by a dozen eunuchs and palace maids. Zhao Gao whispered to Ying Zheng from behind.
"I know, then let's go to Huayang Palace.”
Ying Zheng said.
He didn't know why he had neglected Empress Dowager Xia and Empress Dowager Hua Yang when he had just transmigrated.
Now that he was summoned by these two elders, he finally remembered.
"Yes."
Zhao Gao replied.
Then, the group of people went straight to the Huayang Palace.
Hua Yang Palace was one of the many palaces in Xianyang and was not far from Zhangtai Palace.
Soon, Ying Zheng arrived at the Palace of Hua-Yang.
"All of you wait outside. I'll go in alone.”
Arriving outside the main hall, Ying Zheng turned around and said to the eunuchs and palace maids behind him, led by Zhao Gao.
They naturally agreed obediently and waited outside the palace.
Dressed in a royal robe, with a crown on his head and the Purple Myrtle Heavenly Sword hanging at his waist, Ying Zheng walked into the main hall of the Palace of Hua-Yang alone.
Only after entering did Ying Zheng realize that the size of this Huayang Palace was not much smaller than his Zhangtai Palace, which was used for handling government affairs, holding court meetings, and also as a resting place.
On the left and right sides of the main hall of Zhangtai Palace stood two groups of graceful palace maids.
Not far away, on a back chair fifty meters away, sat two graceful old queens with silver hair. They were served by the palace maids.
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
Seeing Ying Zheng come in, these palace maids bowed to him one after another.
"Get up."
Ying Zheng responded.
Ying Zheng greets the two royal grandmothers."
Seeing Empress Dowager Hua Yang and Empress Dowager Xia, Ying Zheng walked up to the two old Empress Dowager and saluted them.
"Zheng 'er is here. Come over quickly and let us take a good look.”
Seeing Ying Zheng come in, the one who looked slightly younger and was Empress Dowager Hua Yang immediately said happily.
Ying Zheng followed his instructions and approached.
He learned from his memories that one of the two old queens was his biological grandmother, and the other was his god-grandmother.
Both of them treated him very well.
When the former king passed away and Lu Buwei held the power of Qin, it was because of the protection of the two Empress Dowager that Lu Buwei's power did not gather too quickly, giving Ying Zheng the opportunity to overthrow Lu Buwei and take over the power himself.
When Ying Zheng came closer, he bent down and squatted in front of his two grandmothers.
The two grandmothers carefully examined Ying Zheng's face. Empress Dowager Huayang, who looked slightly younger, even reached out her hand to touch Ying Zheng's face and stroked it carefully.
Ying Zheng knew that the reason why the two old ladies were like this was because they had not seen each other for a long time and missed him too much.
Although he felt a little uncomfortable, he endured it.
"Good, this widow's Zheng 'er has indeed grown up. This widow and your other Wang Grandmother have heard of all the things you have done in court.”
"You managed to overthrow the prime minister, seize the power of the monarch, reform the network, create the Black Ice Platform, and destroy the Wei Kingdom. You have done what the previous kings could not do.”
After caressing Ying Zheng's face for a while, Empress Dowager Huayang withdrew her hand, her eyes filled with gratification as she praised him.
"Grandmother Hua Yang, you flatter me.”
Ying Zheng was modest.
"No, this isn't luck. This is true strength. Even your grandfather and your father added together couldn't compare to what you've done in the past few months.”
Empress Dowager Hua Yang shook her head.
"The heavens bless the Qin country. Looks like another peerless wise ruler has appeared in my Qin country.”
Empress Dowager Hua Yang's voice was filled with joy.
"I don't know. Royal grandmothers, why did you call Ying Zheng here today?”
Ying Zheng asked why the two old ladies and queens had called him here.
"Zheng 'er, firstly, we haven't seen you in a long time. We miss you so much that we called you over.”
"Secondly, we want to ask you if you have imprisoned your mother, Empress Dowager Zhao.”
This time, Empress Dowager Hua Yang did not say anything. Instead, it was Ying Zheng's grandmother, Empress Dowager Xia, who spoke in a benevolent and kind tone.
"Why are the two royal grandmothers asking about this?”
Ying Zheng's eyes were filled with hesitation, thinking that these two old queens wanted to plead for mercy on behalf of his mother.
The imperial court had always been against him imprisoning his mother, Empress Dowager Zhao.
In the past few months, there were often people who issued imperial edicts to admonish Ying Zheng, saying that he did not respect filial piety.
Those officials who had issued the imperial edict to remonstrate were sentenced to either be cut in half or demoted. Only then did Ying Zheng suppress the matter.
"Don't worry, Zheng 'er. Since you're already in power, we two old women won't interfere with your governance.”
Seeing the hesitation on Ying Zheng's face, the Hua Xia Empress Dowager and the Xia Empress Dowager exchanged a glance. Then, the Xia Empress Dowager's eyes were filled with smiles.
"Why did the two royal grandmothers ask Ying Zheng about this?”
Ying Zheng was a little confused as to why the two old queens had called him to the Hua-Yang Palace.
"Zheng 'er, we also know why you imprisoned your mother.”
"Your mother is not a good woman. She was originally a concubine in Lu Buwei's residence. Because your father liked her, Lu Buwei gave her to him. Although she gave birth to you, her personality is unrestrained.”
"Not long after your father passed away, your mother started to keep in touch with Lu Buwei. Although she hasn't done anything to tarnish the Wang family's reputation, it's only a matter of time before this continues.”
"With the two of us here, we can still suppress them and make them restrain themselves. If we follow the former king, we're afraid that your mother will cause trouble for the royal family.”
"The way you handle it now is very good. Not only will you protect the reputation of the royal family, but you won't let your mother do something that will cause trouble for the royal family.”
Empress Dowager Hua Yang smiled.
Hearing this, Ying Zheng immediately felt relieved. It seemed that these two old queens were not here to plead for mercy on behalf of his nominal mother, Empress Dowager Zhao.
"As expected of the Empress Dowager of the former Qin Xiaowen King. This Grandmother Hua Yang is really far-sighted when it comes to things.”
Ying Zheng thought to himself.
If he had not transmigrated, in the original history, the young Ying Zheng would have been suppressed by Lu Buwei for seven to eight years before he took over the government.
And in these seven to eight years, not only would Empress Dowager Zhao have an affair with Lu Buwei, but she would also have a relationship with Lu Buwei.
Together with the fake eunuch Lao Ai, they had two illegitimate children who were raised in the Vice Capital, Yong City.
Later on, Lao Ai rebelled. If not for the young Ying Zheng's preparation, perhaps the foundation of Qin would have been taken away by a fake eunuch because of a woman who was naturally dissolute.
