Chapitre 106: Power Struggle
This was only the second time Yan Zheyun was meeting the empress dowager and the first since the spring festival banquet. He had straightened up from his kowtow earlier but was still on his knees, and hence, when the entire courtyard rushed to greet this troublesome woman, he had no choice but to fold over once more.
Liu Yao's eyes darted to him briefly before looking back at his mother. He didn't tell Yan Zheyun to rise, which Yan Zheyun had already suspected would be the case; even if Liu Yao had been foolish enough to do so, he would have remained kneeling in a display of supplication, so as to not give the empress dowager any leeway to pick on their relationship.
Not that it was going to stop her, it seemed.
L’AVIS DES CRÉATEURS 
Queeniecat
Queeniecat (1) Huadian: Decorative makeup that might have its roots all the way back in 400AD. An embellishment on the forehead in between the brows that could be painted on, or during the Tang Dynasty, be made up of gold or silver foil or other beautiful materials.
(2) Court of Adjudicature: A judiciary body that heard cases and also had the power to decide which ones should be retrialed. Independent of the Ministry of Justice even though they both have similar roles. In some dynasties, such as the Qing Dynasty, this was the court with the highest ruling.
