Rebirth of the leisurely life in ancient times

In the Imperial Palace, Fengyu Palace, Empress Su Muyan looked outside and ordered, "Le Ying, go outside and see if Ayi is back."

Then Su Muyan muttered in a low voice: "I don't know if Ayi can come back today. I asked him to come back early, but he just wouldn't listen."

Upon hearing this, Le Ying smiled and said, "Your Majesty, Prince Yi will definitely be able to come back in time. He might already be on his way to the palace now!"

Su Muyan smiled and said, "Don't say anything good for him. I don't even know him! He's been away for a few months, and even though he's well again, he didn't even come back to see me."

Le Ying looked at her madam, who was smiling even though she said she disliked him. She said, "Madam, you have been busy all morning. Go and have a rest. I will go out and see if Prince Yi has returned."

Su Muyan nodded and said, "Okay, I am indeed tired."

Su Muyan thought to himself that there was a girl his son liked that he mentioned in the letter. He didn't know if he could bring her back for her to see this time. What kind of girl could have attracted his son's heart?

Le Ying helped the Queen to the inner chamber. Seeing Su Muyan lying on the phoenix couch with her eyes closed, she whispered to the maidservants, "Be careful to serve the Queen. I'll be back soon."

The young maid bowed and said, "Yes, Sister Le Ying, we will take good care of the queen."

Le Ying walked out relieved after hearing that. When she came to the yard and saw the servants sweeping the floor, she quickly told them, "The queen has fallen asleep. Please be quiet and don't disturb her."

Several people quickly replied: "Yes, the servants (slaves) know."

In the Imperial Study, the Emperor put down the memorial he was reviewing and asked, "Is Prince Yi back?"

Sun Sheng, who was serving on the side, heard this and quickly replied: "Your Majesty, Prince Yi has not returned yet."

Emperor Mu Jing snorted angrily and said, "This brat, the New Year is tomorrow, and he hasn't come back today. Yan'er will worry about him again."

Sun Sheng saw that Emperor Mu Jing's face changed instantly. He knelt down with a plop and said, "Your Majesty, please calm down. Maybe Prince Yi has already entered the city!"

Alas, the Emperor seemed to feel sorry for the Empress, but in his heart he was still worried about Prince Yi. He just couldn't bear to see that the Empress cared about her son more than him.

The emperor glanced at Sun Sheng who was kneeling on the ground and said, "Get up! I don't blame you, why are you kneeling?"

Sun Sheng stood up and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. My legs were weak and I was disrespectful."

Emperor Mu Jing glared at him and said nothing more, "Send someone to see how long it will take for Prince Yi to arrive."

Upon hearing this, Sun Sheng quickly responded, "Yes, Your Majesty, I will send someone to see if the prince has returned."

After saying this, Sun Sheng bowed and left. He went outside and found his apprentice Xiao Quanzi, saying, "Go out of the palace and go to Prince Yi's mansion to see if Prince Yi has returned."

When Xiao Quanzi heard what his master said, he quickly responded, "Yes, Master, I will go now."

However, when Xiao Quanzi was halfway there, he met Le Ying who came here to inquire. Le Ying saw that he was someone close to the emperor and said, "Eunuch Xiao Quanzi, why are you in such a hurry? Where are you going?"

When Xiao Quanzi heard someone calling him, he stopped and looked at the person coming and saw that the person in front of him was the senior maidservant beside the Queen. He quickly replied, "It's Miss Le Ying! I was ordered to go out of the palace to see if Prince Yi has returned."

Le Ying smiled and said, "That's perfect. If Prince Yi comes back, go to Fengyu Palace and tell her that the Queen is still worried about him!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Quanzi quickly responded, "Yes, Miss Le Ying, don't worry!"

Le Ying nodded and said, "Then go quickly! Don't keep the emperor waiting anxiously."

After hearing this, Xiao Quanzi responded, "Okay."

After watching Xiao Quanzi leave, Le Ying hurried back as well, fearing that the Queen would wake up and the others would not serve her well.

On Mu Chenyi's side, within a quarter of an hour, the group arrived at the city gate.

In order to save time, Ying Yi took out Mu Chenyi's token without waiting for the soldier to come and check the carriage. When the soldier saw the token, he quickly asked everyone to step aside.

Yingyi took back the token and drove the carriage straight into the city.

Another soldier asked, "Who is that? You look so scared!"

The soldier said, "You just arrived today and you don't know that they are people close to our Prince Yi. The person sitting in the carriage is Prince Yi. How dare you stop him?"
