Wearing a book, hooking him up

Qianqing Palace.

Anshun stood outside the imperial study, his face full of hesitation, and he was struggling in his heart about whether or not to tell His Majesty.

After the Queen returned from outside the palace, she seemed to be in a bad mood.

But Anshun was not sure whether he had misjudged the Queen's emotions.

After much deliberation, Anshun finally decided to tell His Majesty. After all, His Majesty had previously instructed that anything concerning the Queen must be reported to him.

If His Majesty discovers that the Queen is in a bad mood in the evening, it would be better for him to tell her now.

Anshun bent down and entered the imperial study carefully.

"Your Majesty, the Queen has returned to the palace." His voice was very low.

Hearing this, Jun Zechen looked up at the sky outside. It was almost time for dinner.

"Well, I will go to Kunning Palace to have dinner with the Queen later."

After Jun Zechen finished speaking, he lowered his head and continued to review the memorials.

An Shun did not leave. He hesitated for a moment and continued, "I feel that the Queen seems to be in a bad mood."

Jun Zechen frowned, turned his head quickly, and his eyes fell on Anshun.

"What happened?" His voice was low and majestic.

"The Queen Mother met with the Princess of Qingping today, and then met with Minister Su. She seemed to be in a bad mood after she came back. I don't know what the Queen Mother said to the Princess of Qingping, nor what she said to Minister Su."

An Shun lowered his head and spoke in a lower voice, "When the Queen was talking to these two people, there was no one else around."

Jun Zechen pursed his lips, looking a little unhappy.

Could it be that Qi Wanyin said something again to alienate the relationship between him and Yaoyao?

He shouldn't have been soft on her.

Qi Wanyin hated Canglang so much because of what happened to him that she even wanted to assassinate him. To Jun Zechen, this was simply ridiculous.

He was not familiar with her, and he was nice to her when he was a child because of his mother. Jun Zechen even always thought that she was a well-educated and well-mannered lady.

So it was really unbelievable that Qi Wanyin wanted to kill him out of hatred for his rejection at the beginning.

It was she who wanted to go to Canglang, and was hurt in Canglang. If she had just been smart, couldn't she have escaped?

Try to write a letter back and tell her mother. Would she not save her?

Jun Zechen would also find a way to bring her back for the sake of his mother and uncle.

Not knowing what she had said to Yaoyao, Jun Zechen felt a little uneasy. He didn't want to quarrel with Yaoyao at all.

Now he manages the government affairs every day, and the various reforms he has proposed are being implemented in an orderly manner in the country. The prosperous dynasty that Jun Zechen wants is being realized step by step.

With his loving wife by his side and children around him, Jun Zechen is very happy. He will never allow anyone to destroy the relationship between him and Yaoyao.

Jun Zechen then stood up and said, "Let's go to Kunning Palace."

-

After Su Jingyao returned to Kunning Palace, she felt a little depressed, as if there was a blockage in her chest but she had no place to vent it.

She sighed heavily. Now that things have come to this, what else can she do?

Brother, digest it yourself.

When Jun Zechen came in, he saw her sitting on the couch, looking out the window, wondering what she was thinking about.

He walked over quietly, gently embraced her from behind, and asked softly, "Is Qi Wanyin dead?"

Su Jingyao didn't react to Jun Zechen's arrival and just said "hmm" absentmindedly.

"Yaoyao is unhappy?"

Doesn’t she hate Qi Wanyin too?

"No."

Su Jingyao turned her head away, not wanting to say more, with a somewhat cold expression on her face.

She would not tell Jun Zechen about her brother. If Jun Zechen knew that her brother was so lovesick, he would probably be unhappy.

She couldn't let Jun Zechen know that she was in a bad mood because of her brother, because Jun Zechen would definitely be the kind of person who would vent his anger on his brother.

Then she changed the subject.

"Your Majesty, why did you come so early today?"

"I have finished reviewing the memorials. I heard Yaoyao had returned to the palace, so I came here."

Jun Zechen looked at her, his eyes full of tenderness.

But in fact, there were some letters of greeting, but these were not important. The main reason was that she was unhappy, and Jun Zechen didn't want any misunderstanding between them.

So I had to come and confirm it myself.

He held Su Jingyao tighter with his hands.

Suddenly, Jun Yihuan walked in.

"Your son pays homage to the Emperor, Father, and the Empress." His voice was clear and loud, with a hint of childishness.

Su Jingyao was a little surprised to see the stars, and then a smile as warm as spring breeze immediately appeared on her face.

"Why is Xingxing here today?"

Since Xingxing went to live with the prince, he would only come back every few days. He just came yesterday, so he shouldn't come today.

Jun Yihuan and his father looked at each other, and a hint of pride flashed in their eyes.

It was his father who called him here. It must be that his father made his mother angry.

He thought secretly in his heart, but his face remained expressionless.

Jun Zechen saw her get off the couch and quickly walked to Xingxing with a gentle smile on his face. The smile seemed to melt the ice and snow, and the uneasiness in his heart disappeared instantly.

He knew that he had said many cruel words and even done some bad things in the past, but now that they had all their children, Yaoyao would always forgive him.

He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and his eyes became more determined.

"Mother, I have completed my homework very well today, and the Grand Tutor has praised me. I would like to have dinner with you before returning to the prince's residence."

Jun Yihuan raised his little face, his eyes full of anticipation.

"it is good."

Su Jingyao smiled, took Xingxing's hand, and slowly walked to the table and sat down.

Miaoyun immediately went out and told people to prepare dinner.

Jun Zechen also got up from the couch and calmly sat down next to her.

After a while, when the meal came, Su Jingyao considerately picked up some food for Xingxing, her eyes full of love.

"Xingxing, eat more of this. Are you tired from studying in the prince's institute?"

"I am not tired."

Jun Zechen looked at Su Jingyao tenderly, and occasionally picked up her favorite dishes.

Xingxing has been taught etiquette by a nanny since he was young. Usually, when he eats, he will follow the rules and eat quietly.

But it was naturally different when I was dining with my mother.

"Mother, why are you so absent-minded today? I don't like your fancy meal, humph."

Xingxing pouted her little lips and spoke to Su Jingyao in a coquettish manner, looking extremely adorable.

Only then did Su Jingyao realize that she had picked up a dish of delicacy for Xingxing. A trace of embarrassment flashed across her face, but she quickly returned to normal.

"This flower meal is a new product made by Miaoyun. Maybe you like it? Xingxing can try it."

Her tone was gentle, with a hint of coaxing.

"Let Xingxing eat by himself, and Yaoyao eat her own, so don't worry about him."

Jun Zechen frowned slightly and said with some dissatisfaction.

It's good enough that someone picked up food for you, but you still complain about it.

He glared at Jun Yihuan, his eyes full of majesty.

Jun Yihuan glared back, not wanting to be outdone.

It was his father who begged him to come here today. He was originally still doing his homework. It must be that his father made his mother angry.

His little face was puffed up.

However, Jun Yihuan only dared to be disrespectful to his father in this way in front of his mother's Kunning Palace. If he was in the prince's residence, his father would always scold him with a stern face.

They said his studies were not good here and there, even though the Grand Tutor clearly said he did very well.

Thinking of this, he felt full of grievance.

But he could only bear it silently, not daring to say a word.

After Su Jingyao and the father and son finished their meal, they felt much better.

The haze in his eyes gradually dissipated.

Let my brother's love be like this. Qi Wanyin is gone before it even began. Looking at my brother's expression, he should have let it go. It's just a man's pity for a woman.

Not that much love.

When Jun Zechen returned to the Qianqing Palace, Jun Yihuan also returned to the prince's residence.

Su Jingyao lay lazily on the Yaoyao chair in the bedroom, gently closing her eyes, listening to Miaoyun reporting to her about the recent events in the harem.

"Master, An Jieyu sent a message that Yan Zhaoyi and Xu Xiurong vaguely realized that His Majesty seemed to be investigating them and had been monitoring them. They planned to have a private gathering with a few old people in the East Palace."

"Then reveal some of the things you have done in the past to His Majesty's people."

"An Jieyu asked you what she would say."

Su Jingyao's eyes were lost in thought. After a long while, she slowly spoke: "Let her tell the truth."

This time, Yan Zhaoyi and Xu Ronghua seized upon Su Jingyao's past to make a fuss. There are so many women in the harem, what if another woman brings up the past again?

Now, while Jun Zechen still has strong feelings for her, she should completely break the filter Jun Zechen has for her.

Only when Jun Zechen thoroughly understands who she is, their relationship will be truly impeccable, rather than the illusion that Jun Zechen thinks now.

However, Su Jingyao doesn't like to risk everything. Jun Zechen's reaction after knowing this is very important, which also determines whether Su Jingyao will reveal her true colors or continue to deny and deceive him.
