Difficult strategy? The Queen's top white lotus, directly grasp

Upon hearing this, Yao Peiyuan blushed and took Xiaorong's hand and left the imperial study. Suddenly, they were the only two left in the imperial study, looking at each other awkwardly.

Nie Shuangshuang felt a little embarrassed when he looked at her, and lowered her head timidly. Song Chuji's eyes were burning and it was faintly visible that he felt a little aggrieved.

"Although the affairs of the Qi and Shu families have come to an end, I still cannot rest in peace."

What's with this extremely aggrieved tone?

Nie Shuangshuang asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty, have you encountered any troubles? It's a pity that a woman like me cannot help Your Majesty with his worries. I can only worry here."

She wiped the non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes, frowned, and looked like a beautiful woman, as fragile as a willow in the wind.

Song Chuji tightened his grip around her waist without hesitation and sighed, "The flood in the south is serious, and those local officials are only good at collecting money but not doing anything. I have sent wave after wave of people but to no avail.

The Queen Mother and I plan to lead the army in person and go on a private visit in disguise to warn those people!"

The court officials are not good-for-nothings, and the current emperor is certainly not an incompetent fool!

"Is this a good thing?! If Your Majesty could really go there in person to understand the people's sentiments, that would be great! It would also let those corrupt officials who are lining their pockets and squandering the people's money know how powerful we are!"

Nie Shuangshuang leaned in his arms and said in agreement with a bright smile.

However, Song Chuji seemed dissatisfied. Wouldn't this mean that he and Nie Shuangshuang would be separated again?

He came back from Ganye Temple because Song Siming was still in a cold war with Shuangshuang. Then came the messy things about Concubine Qi and Concubine Shu Guipin. He was so upset that he didn't even have time to be affectionate with Shuangshuang!

"Shuangshuang, you have to make it up to me these few days. I have to wait for you to leave. It will be a long time since we last met."

The concubine he just mentioned was Concubine Mei during the late emperor’s lifetime, and now she is Concubine Mei.

Among the concubines in the late queen's harem, Concubine Mei was considered to be kind to others and her personality was not cunning or weird. Although Song Chuji had no good feelings towards other concubines except his mother, Concubine Mei was not so annoying among these women. Moreover, she had the reputation of being respected as an elder, so he made her the Concubine, and the other women were banished to the cold palace.

When she was young, Concubine Mei was a famous dancer in the capital. She and Song Chuji's mother were also a pair of beautiful women. They were taken into the palace together by his lustful father. Perhaps they were different from those young ladies in the boudoir who followed the rules.

They were very unrestrained in sex, with all kinds of tricks, which made the late emperor unable to walk. The ladies in the harem were even more jealous and called them vixens behind their backs.

Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. No matter how many tricks she had, there would come a day when she would run out of tricks. Song Chuji's mother soon fell out of favor and was bullied and trampled on in the palace. Her life became even more miserable because she gave birth to Song Chuji.

Concubine Mei's days of favor did last a little longer, but she was eventually abandoned. Her body was damaged, and she couldn't even give birth to a child. Her life was even more miserable than that of Song Chuji and his mother.

Fortunately, all the hard work paid off. Perhaps because she looked too much like Song Chuji's mother, Song Chuji treated her somewhat better and gave her the title of imperial concubine. Even Song Chuji's mother was only posthumously named the late emperor's noble concubine and did not even have the title of queen.

It would have been fine if she had lived a life worse than death, but after she died, her son became the emperor but was unable to show filial piety to her and posthumously conferred her the title of empress. Several ministers at the time even banged their heads against the pillars and protested with their blood, but Song Chuji didn't want to pay any attention to them and just let them die.

After all, it was Yao Peiyuan, who was young but sensible, who immediately stopped the impulsive Song Chuji. The new emperor's position was not yet stable, and after these old ministers retired and returned to their hometowns, the emperor would have his own ministers. When the time came, His Majesty could posthumously confer the title of empress on her, and who would dare to say anything? !

There's no need to ruin your already bad reputation even more because of these things.

Therefore, Song Chuji always felt that this matter was a thorn in his heart and a pain in his heart.

If Nie Shuangshuang could help him solve this problem, Song Chuji would look at her with admiration.

If she could accomplish something that could save the country, and when Song Chuji proposed a reward, she could propose in front of all the civil and military officials that Song Chuji's mother be posthumously named the late queen. That would then be justified.

"What are you daydreaming about? You're just answering me stupidly when I ask you a question?!"

Suddenly, a man's angry and low voice rang in her ears, which frightened Nie Shuangshuang's frail body and made her tremble slightly twice. She hurried to comfort him.

"Your Majesty, I just thought of Concubine Mei. I haven't seen her for a long time, so I feel a little emotional. I just don't know why Concubine Mei wants to accompany Your Majesty on this incognito visit?"

Concubine Mei had always been a reclusive person, and because she was disillusioned with the late emperor, she did not live in the imperial palace, but moved to a secluded small courtyard in Ganye Temple and lived alone, with only an old nanny to serve her.

Song Chuji didn't ask much about it, but Nie Shuangshuang, as the queen, would send a few young and healthy maids from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to serve her from time to time. If anyone had a headache or fever, she would just report it to the palace and send the imperial physician to see him.

Why is this man so clingy and jealous? She wished he had the ability to read her mind and hear what she was thinking at all times.

Song Chuji curled his lips lazily upon hearing this, and kissed Nie Shuangshuang again like a gangster. Seeing her shy little face, he was in a very good mood to tease her. He hooked her little chin and said, "The power of Concubine Mei's family is in the south. Concubine Mei has been cut off from her family since she entered the palace. This time, when she heard about the flood in the south, she wanted to go with me to take a look."

Nie Shuangshuang nodded, but felt something was strange in her heart. Concubine Mei had no children and no worries. Her mental strength was getting weaker day by day in Ganye Temple. It was thought that she might pass away at any time. Who would have thought that in recent days she seemed to have taken a rejuvenation elixir.

I heard from several palace maids over there that she looked in good spirits, and her originally haggard face now looked youthful and beautiful.

Nie Shuang's eyelids twitched, and she felt that something was wrong, but she continued to act like a delicate and weak little white rabbit without making a sound. Her naive look made people want to protect her.

"That's great. When Your Majesty comes back safely after controlling the flood, who dares to say that Your Majesty is a tyrant who doesn't care about the lives of the people?!" When Nie Shuangshuang said this, her cute and adorable look successfully made the iceberg-like man laugh.
