Liang Chongyue likes people like this who can give her accurate answers to practical questions. After all, they have not been in the court for a long time. Unlike those court officials who were admitted in the same batch as Chai Shuo, they have already evolved into old hands.

"I know, you did a good job. Hu Jing is a man who disdains to lie. He praised you so much, it seems that A Zheng was right."

When the princess was mentioned, Chai Shuo's heart moved and he became nervous.

"Your Majesty, I would like to ask, is Your Highness married?"

Liang Chongyue raised his eyebrows when he heard this. Haven't these two communicated in the past few years?

"You don't even know this?"

Liang Chongyue kept playing with the jade twist in her hand, and looked at Chai Shuo's lips trembling nervously when he made random guesses, and a sense of evil amusement arose in her heart.

"You've been away from Beijing for three years, and you haven't communicated with A Zheng?"

Chai Shuo's eyes gradually became bloodshot as he stared at His Majesty, trying to find flaws in his thoughts from some subtle details.

Unfortunately, he was disappointed. She, Liang Chongyue, was the emperor. How could he hide such a little thought from her?

Not only did she pretend to be sincere, she also felt quite sorry for him.

Chai Shuo's heart was half dead. He lowered his head for a while, as if he had just found his voice, and responded to Liang Chongyue's question.

"I don't know when I'll return, so I dare not bother Your Highness rashly. I don't want Your Highness to worry about someone like me."

"It's infatuated."

Liang Chongyue secretly sighed that Chai Shuo's writing was good and his work was good, but he was a little stupid when it came to matters of the heart.

"Three years is neither long nor short. You and Zheng haven't even communicated. No one would wait for you for so long."

It seems that A Zheng is not that smart. There is not even a letter, and she has been waiting for three years.

Just thinking about it made Liang Chongyue feel helpless. It was probably because the Xiang family had such a good family tradition. She was used to the Xiang family's lifelong marriage of a couple, but her silly sister had been waiting for three years.

They were all so stupid that she was so anxious. She wanted to scold them but didn't know where to start.

"It's my fault. Your Highness should have found a good match long ago. In the end, I was not worthy."

Seeing the self-deprecating smile on Chai Shuo's lips, Liang Chongyue didn't feel any guilt at all.

"Didn't you say before that you would wait for me to come back? If A Zheng is already married, would you be willing to be my mistress?"

Liang Chongyue continued to test him, wanting to see if Chai Shuo's sincerity was firm after three years.

"I remain true to my original intention. I simply want to ask Your Majesty, is your Highness's husband kind to her? Does Your Highness like him?"

Chai Shuo emphasized the word "like" a little too much, sounding a little unwilling.

In just one second, Liang Chongyue fabricated a non-existent person.

"What if they have a good relationship? What can you do if they don't?"

Liang Chongyue liked to ask rhetorical questions, staring at Chai Shuo's red eyes, without any attempt to test his true guilt.

"If the relationship is good, I would like to leave for North China as soon as possible to complete this matter as soon as possible; if the relationship is not good, Your Highness will not abandon me, and I will voluntarily marry into Your Highness's family and become his concubine."

Chai Shuo's eyes were as determined as the day he asked to go to North China. In the past three years, Liang Chongyue had never opened Chai Shuo's information panel to see his feelings for A Zheng.

It’s because A Zheng likes him, even if Chai Shuo is acting, as long as she and the Xiang family are there, Chai Shuo will act for the rest of his life.

"Okay, I understand. Go back and wait for the letter. I will pass it on for you."

After Liang Chongyue asked and got the answer he wanted, he started to chase the person away.

After Chai Shuo left, Liang Chongyue sat on the dragon throne, still thinking about how to tell A Zheng, when the system panel suddenly popped up with Chai Shuo's information on it.

The system deliberately enlarged the like list to the largest size for Liang Chongyue to see.

Liang Chongyue looked at A Zheng's name written brightly on it, and glanced at the heartbeat value that was about to overflow behind it.

The puppy has been doing this for three years. He wants these two to be a couple more than anyone else, so he naturally can't stand seeing Liang Chongyue making things difficult for Chai Shuo.

"Okay, okay, I understand. I'm leaving."

Liang Chongyue stood up from the dragon throne. This time, he was not in a hurry on the way to Cining Palace as he was on the way back to Yangxin Palace. His footsteps slowly left footprints in the snow. His mind was full of thoughts, and he was already thinking about what to add to A Zheng's makeup.

When Liang Chongyue arrived at the Cining Palace, he immediately saw A Zheng waiting at the palace gate.

However, when the little girl saw her coming, she seemed to be in a bad mood.

"Who are you waiting for here?"

Xiang Zheng quickly adjusted her mood and affectionately took her cousin's arm:

"I'm not waiting for anyone. Lunch is ready. I was wondering why my cousin hasn't arrived yet."

Seeing that she couldn't even lie, Liang Chongyue was glad that the two fools fell in love, otherwise they would have been deceived to death.

"Outside men are not allowed to enter the harem, have you forgotten?"

Liang Chongyue patted A Zheng's shoulder helplessly and strode towards the main hall. Halfway through, he saw that there was no one around him. When he turned around, he saw A Zheng still standing there.

"Why don't you catch up? Don't you want to know what he said?"

After Liang Chongyue finished speaking, she saw A Zheng quickly catch up with her, so she turned around and continued walking towards the main hall. A Zheng followed her like a little tail. As long as she turned around, she could see A Zheng staring at her eagerly.

"Let's eat first. Can you get full just by looking at me?"

Minglang was still there, and Liang Chongyue didn't want to talk about this at the dinner table.

Liang Minglang looked around at the expressions of his mother and aunt, and thought of his aunt's reaction after the news of Lord Chai entering the palace came, and silently quickened his eating speed.

"I'm full. I'm going to read a book. Grandma, Mother Queen, and Little Aunt, please eat slowly."

After saying that, Liang Minglang left the dining room and returned to his side hall.

Liang Chongyue watched Minglang leave until after lunch, when he was sitting on the Luohan bed sipping tea and met Azheng's waiting eyes.

"I'll only tell you this once. Don't pester me with questions after I'm done."

Liang Chongyue first set a rule for A Zheng, otherwise A Zheng might have to pester her to repeat the same words countless times.

Finally, at this moment, A Zheng nodded vigorously.

Seeing her anxious, Liang Chongyue cleared his throat and said:

"I told Chai Shuo that you are already married. Chai Shuo said that if you are not happy, I will become your mistress as long as you are willing."

After Liang Chongyue finished speaking, Ah Zheng was still waiting for the next words with her eyes wide open. Seeing that she stopped talking after drinking her tea, she asked:

"that's it?"

"What else do you need? He's willing to be your concubine. He doesn't need to be a high-ranking official to be your concubine. I think your uncle and aunt won't refuse."

After Liang Chongyue finished speaking, her hand was pushed by her mother. She received a hint from her mother and saw tears in A Zheng's eyes that were about to fall.

"But I don't want him to be my mistress. I want him to be my legal husband."

Liang Chongyue took the handkerchief from Yunling and put it into Azheng's hand:

"I was just testing him, why are you crying?"
