The Royal Highness

In the Qingming Pavilion, Shen Zhe was bowing to the emperor. Seeing his cousin, Xiang Ye was not in a bad mood, he walked over to the table and threw a roll of paper at him, laughing: "The salt merchants are almost unable to hold on, they all hope that Qiu Zhenyu can help them, but that old fox is not so foolish. He has always been interested in profit, he is not lacking in money, why would he covet their filial piety?"

Shen Zhe read the imperial reports carefully a few times, then said with a gentle expression: "They definitely did not expect that the Emperor would spend a full two years with them."

Maybe Shen Zhe's temperament was more suited to be a civil servant, but the weight of the military could shake a country, so naturally the emperor had to hand over the arms he trusted the most.

Xiang Ye frowned and darkened his face, then said unhappily: "For the Queen's matter, the Queen Mother had many complaints to me. That woman was truly amazing, she managed to coax the Old Granny the moment they entered the door. At the moment, other than going to upper yang palace, there was no other way to calm his mother down. Moreover, you followed me to war back then, which was why the marriage was delayed. The Queen Mother has always been blaming me for it.

Shen Zhe thought about the empress he met at the gate of the Longevity Palace in the morning. Was he such a scheming person under his tranquil and beautiful figure? But he smiled. What did it have to do with him what sort of person the empress was? It was the Emperor's business.

"As expected of Qiu Zhenyu's daughter, he must have learnt that cunning old fox." What he had said and done last night, if it was a normal woman, he would have long been scared witless, and even mother and daughter meeting would be forbidden. However, not only was that person unafraid, he was not sad either.

She was obviously a country girl.

Shen Zhe didn't know that the emperor was thinking about all these. He only sighed lightly with a troubled expression: "Aunt seems to have a good temper, it's just that she has a good temperament, I can't bear to disobey her."

On the contrary, the emperor revealed an evil smile. It was precisely because of the intimacy between the two brothers that he said in a displeased manner, "You don't like women that much? Did you know that your mother wasn't worried about you getting older? She was worried about not getting infected with Long Yang. "

"Your majesty!" Shen Zhe shook his head. Gentle people were not good at handling such jokes.

"Forget it, since I am not going to make things difficult for you, I will definitely not let mother make things difficult for you." Xiang Ye doted on his cousin very much. In the eyes of the people, he was no different from a tyrant. His cousin was already twenty-five and had no intentions of getting married. The empress dowager had long been impatient and it had been him who had shielded her for so many years. Naturally, she had to help him this time as well.

As they were talking, Zhou Huai walked into the room cautiously and asked the emperor, "Your majesty, do you want to eat dinner at upper yang palace? Imperial Concubine Su also sent someone to ask, "Where is the emperor to eat tonight?"

The emperor's good mood immediately dissipated as he coldly said, "I'm not going anywhere, I'm leaving General here for dinner."

Xiang Ye glared at him, and just as he was about to get angry, he suddenly had an idea and said: "Then we will go together with you."

Zhou Huai trembled at the side as he asked, "Your Majesty, that upper yang palace …"

The upper yang palace would naturally wait for the Emperor's return before heading off. Thus, after eating dinner, Yu'er took a bath and changed into her snow-white sleeping clothes, then waited on the bed early, ready to receive him anytime.

Most people had to follow this rule, and only a few who were favored could do so. For example, in Consort Shu, there was no such rule. Since that was the case, the Queen of atrium should be treated honorably, but Qing Ya clearly told Bao Er that this was a special order from the Emperor, the Empress must follow the rules and wait to serve the Young Master.

He didn't feel wronged that he had been treated badly. It was as if in this world, other than the Yuanzhou s and his birth mother Bai's disease s, there was no one else that could make her care about him. Of course, this included the Emperor and everything else in the palace.

Because she didn't care, she didn't feel wronged, but being mistreated wasn't being mistreated either. Her grandmother had taught her since childhood, and the rings made from gold, silver, jewelry, and luxurious clothing were nothing. Once they were lost, they would lose their luster. Only the strength and dignity of the heart could support him forever. This did not need to be given to him by others, and he would never lose it.

The night was long, and she had been kneeling on the bed for almost four hours. This was a posture she had to maintain, so when the Emperor arrived, she had to greet him on the bed. She sat quietly and waited, thinking about something interesting. Her indifferent expression held a hint of happiness, which surprised the court ladies. Their empress was too good-natured.

Finally, there was movement in the courtyard. The lights from the bridge lit up the entire time, illuminating the outside of the door. The emperor came from the military camp travel worn out, the palace people followed nervously behind, the Eunuch Zhou was wondering if it was time for someone to prepare some hot water to bathe the the emperor in his fragrant soup.

However, Xiang Ye barged in boldly, and with a glance, he saw the woman kneeling on the bed.

"You …" Xiang Ye had only walked a few steps, but just as he was about to say something to Qian Yu'er, the sound of hurried footsteps came from outside the door. The Eight Hundred Miles Urge had the privilege to be able to travel unhindered, and was even able to enter the upper yang palace.

Xiang Ye immediately received it and read the letter under the bright light. Maybe it was because he was in a bad mood to meet the Queen in the first place, but now, he was even more furious.

"Bastard!"

The emperor was enraged and ordered Zhou Huai to immediately summon the other six divisions and the cabinet ministers into the palace. In anger, he threw the letter on the ground and rushed out without caring about the woman on the bed.

Suddenly, the bustle that had come over to her suddenly dispersed. She looked at the letter that had been left on the ground by the emperor. She got up from the bed and walked over to it. She picked it up carefully and folded it carefully.

She was only doing these things out of good intentions, but the person who went there suddenly barged in and asked in a cold voice, "What are you looking at?"
