"On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, you must seize the opportunity. I will try my best to get His Majesty drunk so that you can succeed." The Queen Mother glanced at Concubine Shu unhappily and made it clear.

When Concubine Shu heard this, she was very excited and said, "Thank you, sister, for thinking about me so much. I am grateful."

At this point, the sisters didn't say anything more.

After Xiahou Xuan left the court, he did not go directly back to Longyin Palace, but turned to Xianfu Palace.

"Have seen His Majesty——"

"Is Lady Jiang awake?"

"Your Majesty, the noble has been awake for a while. Qianyue and Yufeng are helping him wash and dress." Yu Jin replied in a low voice.

Xiahou Xuan nodded and strode in.

Qianyue was combing Jiang Wange's hair when she heard Xiahou Xuan coming in and was about to greet him.

"No need, just continue to dress up for your master."

"Yes."

When Jiang Wange heard Xiahou Xuan's voice, he opened his eyes lazily and looked at the person behind him through the bronze mirror.

"Your Majesty, have you left court so early?"

"Well, since nothing happened in the court, we will leave early." Xiahou Xuan explained softly, looking at Jiang Wange with a smile.

Just through the mirror, Jiang Wange could feel the smile and tenderness on Xiahou Xuan's face, and she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Xiahou Xuan just stood quietly behind her, waiting for her to finish dressing up.

He stretched out his hand to her, and Jiang Wange handed his palm to Xiahou Xuan.

"Let's have breakfast together."

After saying that, Xiahou Xuan asked Yu Jin to serve breakfast, and he had breakfast together with Jiang Wange.

Seeing that Xiahou Xuan had eaten breakfast and had no intention of leaving, Jiang Wange couldn't help but be curious:

"Your Majesty, don't you need to review memorials today?"

"It doesn't matter if I don't approve the memorial for one day. I just want to spend more time with you." Xiahou Xuan's bright smile made Jiang Wange dazed.

"Your Majesty, this is not good. If I delay the affairs of state, it will be unacceptable..."

"But what if I want you to be by my side?"

So Xiahou Xuan threw this difficult problem to Jiang Wange.

Jiang Wange thought for a moment, then asked:

"Your Majesty, do you want me to accompany you in handling government affairs?"

"That's what I meant."

"But isn't it true that the harem cannot interfere in government affairs?"

Jiang Wange looked at Xiahou Xuan with a puzzled look on his face. Did he remember it wrong? It has always been a taboo for the harem to interfere in politics!

"There is no such rule in Fengyu Country. Our ancestors had a empress before, and there were also female officials serving in the previous dynasty." Xiahou Xuan didn't know why Jiang Wange said this, but he still told Jiang Wange the truth.

Jiang Wange was stunned. He never expected that this dynasty could be so special!

In this regard, Xiahou Xuan couldn't help but look at Jiang Wange with suspicion:

"Isn't your father the magistrate of Qingzhou? Why didn't he tell you about the situation in our dynasty?"

Xiahou Xuan looked at Jiang Wange with a slightly scrutinizing gaze. You know, in Fengyu Country, even a three-year-old child knows that women can be officials.

When Jiang Wange heard this, he secretly thought to himself that something was wrong!

Xiahou Xuan is suspicious of her!

"Ahem, I usually stay in the harem and don't know what's going on in the court. I heard my father mention that women can be officials, but I didn't know that the harem can interfere in government affairs. I thought that concubines in the harem could not interfere in government affairs..."

Jiang Wange's explanation was reasonable. Xiahou Xuan nodded seriously to show his understanding.

"It's okay. If you have any questions, you can ask me directly. Since I asked you to accompany me to review the memorials, then of course you can. I am not so stupid as to violate the ancestral rules."

Jiang Wange heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Xiahou Xuan didn't seem to doubt him anymore, but -

"But I don't want to review the memorials with you. I just want to sleep in the palace or read some interesting novels."

Although Jiang Wange had a deal with Xiahou Xuan to help him clean up his harem, her character as a salty fish did not fall down, and she would lie down as much as possible until it was her turn to perform.

When Xiahou Xuan heard what Jiang Wange said, he just found it funny.

"How can you be so lazy? Why are you sleeping in the broad daylight? I came all the way from the imperial court to Xianfu Palace, not just to have breakfast with you."

"I don't care, I don't want to move..."

Jiang Wange simply gave up. As long as she didn't move, Xiahou Xuan couldn't force her to go to Longyin Palace!

Xiahou Xuan seemed to see through what Jiang Wange was thinking, so he smiled indifferently and walked straight towards Jiang Wange.

Without waiting for Jiang Wange to react, Xiahou Xuan picked her up and walked out.

"Ahhh, what are you doing? Put me down! It's broad daylight, you are so indecent!"

Jiang Wange never expected that Xiahou Xuan would use this method to directly carry the person away.

The palace maids and eunuchs passing by lowered their heads when they saw this, not daring to look at him any more, for fear of being blamed.

Seeing people coming and going, Jiang Wange simply stopped struggling and buried her head in Xiahou Xuan's chest, preventing anyone from seeing her face.

Even so, the news that Xiahou Xuan walked around the harem in broad daylight with Jiang Wange spread throughout the harem, and it was unknown how much hatred this brought to her.

After arriving at Longyin Palace, Jiang Wange jumped directly from Xiahou Xuan's arms and glared at him!

"What is your majesty doing? Are you trying to confirm my title of the evil concubine in broad daylight?" Jiang Wange said angrily while glaring at Xiahou Xuan.

Xiahou Xuan found her angry look so cute that he couldn't help but smile:

"I hug my beloved concubine, what's wrong with that? Besides, we are not committing adultery in broad daylight, what's wrong with that?"

Seeing that Xiahou Xuan's words were so certain, Jiang Wange had nothing to refute.

"In short, it's not possible! There are so many women in the harem who want to find trouble with me by looking for my faults. Your Majesty, please stop causing trouble for me. I have my own rhythm."

Although her ultimate goal was to arouse the jealousy of the concubines and prompt them to kill her, now is not the right time. She is just a small noble lady. If she is really targeted by the powerful concubines or the queen mother, she will die without knowing how!

"According to what you said, it's still my fault? Should I apologize to you?"

"It was your fault in the first place, but you don't have to apologize. But don't do this again in the future!"

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Haidezi, prepare some tea, snacks and storybooks for Concubine Jiang. Concubine Jiang will be with me all day to handle government affairs."

"Yes, I will prepare now."

Haidezi couldn't stop laughing at the interaction between Xiahou Xuan and Jiang Wange, and he wished that His Majesty and Concubine Jiang would be more affectionate.

After the tea and snacks were served, Jiang Wange stopped arguing with Xiahou Xuan and sat on the couch and went about his own business.

Xiahou Xuan also began to sit at his desk and review the memorials left over from yesterday and the new memorials submitted today.

Occasionally, when he looked up, he saw Jiang Wange reading the storybook with great interest, and he felt very satisfied.

On the other hand, as soon as Concubine Shu returned to Chenghuan Palace, she heard that Jiang Wange was carried into Longyin Palace by His Majesty. She was so angry that she smashed a lot of things.
