Chapter 2116: Probing

Yan Jin Nian's return was naturally told to Emperor Yang Zhou.

Even though Yan Jin Nian was not Emperor Yang Zhou's birth mother, she was the one and only Empress Dowager in the Imperial Palace. His father's other concubines were not worthy of this titles and many of them had passed away during the time when they were away.

After all, many of them were not living very well.

Emperor Yang Zhou didn't purposely make things difficult for them, but with him ignoring them, some people would have their heart moved. And if these concubines were to make trouble, no one would come to support them. 

Thus, many of them were not able to survive. 

But Empress Dowager Yan was different.

Even if Emperor Yang Zhou didn't really favor Empress Dowager Yan, there were many people who would not want her to die. Because she's the former Empress and also the Empress Dowager here.

No one would dare to challenge her authority in the slightest bit.
