After the prince was able to travel through time, he stopped rolling!

On the way back to the palace, Emperor Xuanyuan glanced at the little prince several times and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "This kid really knows how to enjoy himself!" He looked at the little prince sitting leisurely in the carriage, and a trace of envy welled up in his heart.

However, this look in the eyes of the young prince made him alert. He thought to himself: "Is this old guy thinking of something bad again? No, I will vomit blood or something when I go back today. I can't let him succeed." So the young prince secretly made up his mind to be prepared to deal with it.

When he returned to the palace, Emperor Xuanyuan touched his face happily, as if he had sensed a wonderful change. He couldn't help but sigh, "Am I a lot younger now?"

Xiao Yuanzi, who was standing by, immediately agreed, "Your Majesty, you have always been in your prime!" Xiao Yuanzi knew Emperor Xuanyuan's thoughts very well. As an emperor, who wouldn't want to stay on the throne of power for a longer time? And Emperor Xuanyuan also held such a hope.

If the young prince knew what Emperor Xuanyuan was thinking at the moment, perhaps he would find ways to help Emperor Xuanyuan maintain his health every day. After all, as long as he was not allowed to succeed to the throne, being a prince for life was also a good choice.

However, Emperor Xuanyuan, who had just returned from the palace, did not go to the Qinzheng Palace to handle government affairs for the first time. Instead, he went straight to the bedroom of a certain empress. This action made the other empresses wonder if they had made any mistakes that made Emperor Xuanyuan unhappy. For a time, the atmosphere in the palace became tense and everyone was worried.

It allowed Emperor Xuanyuan to put down his work in the Qinzheng Palace and pay attention to their lives. From then on, a rumor spread in the harem that Emperor Xuanyuan's unspeakable secret seemed to have been cured.

Who made him look so radiant after leaving the palace? His whereabouts were kept secret. No one knew he went to the beauty salon except the crown prince and a few people around him. If Emperor Xuanyuan knew about the discussion between the empresses, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood.

Several ladies who were playing Landlord were chatting animatedly. "Have you noticed? His Majesty has been acting a little strange lately!"

Madam B: "Yes, yes, your Majesty, who had not come to the harem for ten days or half a month before, has been hanging out in the harem every now and then recently."

Queen A: "Yes! It has disrupted my normal life. I was planning to come to play Landlord with you guys a few days ago, but His Majesty suddenly went to my bedroom and I couldn't come out. I had to serve him."

A certain lady: "You think His Majesty took the wrong medicine?"

Queen C: "Could it be that we have done something wrong recently?"

Madam Ding: "How could that be? We are a group of sisters who are just playing cards together or having beauty treatments."

Empress Wu: "Yes, then why do you think His Majesty has suddenly started to come to the harem more frequently? Is there any special reason?"

Empress Ji: "Could it be because His Majesty feels that he is getting old and wants to find more young and beautiful concubines to accompany him?"

Empress Geng: "Impossible, His Majesty is not that kind of person. He has always treated us concubines equally."

Niangniang Xin: "What's the reason? You can't just change your habits for no reason, right?"

The ladies all shook their heads, expressing their confusion. At this time, a palace maid came over, bowed to them and said, "Ladies, the Queen Mother invites you to come over."

The ladies looked at each other, confused, but still stood up and followed the palace maids to the Cining Palace. Along the way, they whispered and wondered why the Queen Mother wanted to summon them. When they arrived at the Cining Palace, the ladies bowed, and the Queen Mother looked at them with a smile and said, "Get up. I asked you to come here today because I want to talk to you."

All the ladies responded in unison: "Please give your orders, Queen Mother."

The Queen Mother sighed and said, "Your Majesty's behavior has indeed been a little unusual recently, and I am also confused. But I believe that His Majesty must have his reasons for doing this. Perhaps it is because of national affairs, or perhaps it is for other reasons. As concubines, you should understand His Majesty and support His Majesty's decision. At the same time, you should also do your own part and not cause trouble for His Majesty."

The ladies all nodded in agreement. The Queen Mother continued, "In addition, I hope that everyone can unite as one and jointly maintain the harmony and stability of the harem. Don't scheme against each other like before. You are all His Majesty's women, you should support each other and make progress together. Only in this way can His Majesty be assured and you can live happier lives."

The ladies once again responded in unison: "We will follow the instructions of the Queen Mother."

The Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction, then began to chat with the other concubines, and the atmosphere gradually became harmonious.

"Empress Dowager, how about we play a few games with you?" a certain queen said.

Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother said with great interest, "Okay, let's play a few games."

A certain lady asked again: "What cards does the Queen Mother want to play?"

The Queen Mother thought for a moment and said, "Let's play solitaire."

So, everyone started to prepare the game props. After a while, the palace maids put a deck of cards on the table.

The Queen Mother looked at the cards in front of her and suddenly thought of the Crown Prince. She smiled and said to the ladies, "Do you know? This deck of cards was made by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince specifically for me!"

The ladies all expressed their surprise and envy, and also praised the Crown Prince for his filial piety.

At this time, a palace maid stepped forward and reported: "Your Majesty, the cards are ready. Please give your instructions."

The Queen Mother nodded and motioned for the maid to bring the cards over.

The maid carefully handed the cards to the Queen Mother, who took them and looked at the pattern on them carefully.

The back of the cards were printed with the Queen Mother's favorite orchids, which made them look particularly exquisite.

The Queen Mother said happily, "Look, this was made specially for me by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. He is such a thoughtful child."

The other ladies also echoed and praised the Crown Prince for his filial piety.

However, they did not know that Xuanyuan Ruize was actually very shrewd. The cards given to the Queen Mother were specially made, while the cards given to the concubines in the harem were just ordinary white boards.

According to the young prince, "We must make the Queen Mother's big thick legs feel how special she is and how much she is valued. How can these ladies compare to her?"

The game started, and the Queen Mother played a card, she played a "5 of Hearts".

"I take the '6 of Spades,'" said the lady.

"Seven of Diamonds." Lady B played the next card.

……

After rounds, the Queen Mother had fewer and fewer cards in her hand, while the concubines still had many cards.

"Haha, it looks like I'm going to win this round." The Queen Mother said happily.

"The Empress Dowager is blessed with great fortune, this is inevitable." The empresses hurriedly flattered her.

At this moment, the Queen Mother suddenly found that she could not connect the cards in her hand, and she showed a distressed expression.

"Empress Dowager, why don't you let me draw one for you?" The empress and the queen said flatteringly.

The Queen Mother glanced at her and nodded.

The Queen Mother’s family played an “8 of Clubs”, which successfully connected with the Queen Mother’s card.

"You are really smart." The Queen Mother praised.

In the end, the Queen Mother won the game. She was in a good mood and rewarded the concubines with some precious jewelry.

"Thank you, Her Majesty the Queen Mother, for your reward." All the queens said in unison.

After leaving the Cining Palace, the ladies gathered together again.

"What do you think, why did the Queen Mother suddenly want to play cards?" Queen B asked curiously.

"It's because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince gave her a deck of special cards." said the lady.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince is so thoughtful that he even puts so much effort into playing a game." The queen and her husband said enviously.

"We have to curry favor with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Empress Ding said.

"Yes, maybe someday His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be able to get us something special." The ladies echoed.
