Red candles were burning brightly in Kunning Palace, and the room was charming. Afterwards, Liang Chongyue sat on the bed after eating, with the red at the corners of her eyes lingering.

"I know I'm no longer young, so I've been exercising. Is Your Majesty satisfied?"

Li Yu'an put on his outer robe and knelt under the bed so that His Majesty could look down at him.

Liang Chongyue was full in every sense of the word tonight. Seeing that Li Yu'an was still asking questions shamelessly, he raised his hand and slapped his mature and handsome face. A crisp slap sounded. Li Yu'an's face did not show any anger. He raised his hand and slapped the other half of his face.

The red handprint on one side is big, and the red handprint on the other side is small.

"Your Majesty, please just give me the order next time. I won't have to do it yourself."

Liang Chongyue was extremely tired. This man was like a deaf person just now. It was useless to coax him or scold him. Now he was pretending.

"My face hurts a little, please let me cool it down with your Majesty's hand."

Liang Chongyue had a cold body and his hands were a little cold when they were placed outside the quilt. Li Yu'an held his hands and put them close to the half of his face that he had hit, which helped warm his hands.

"Carry me to bathe. If you continue to act cunningly, I won't be able to set foot in Kunning Palace for a month."

Liang Chongyue originally wanted to say one year, but then she thought about Li Yu'an's personality. If she said that, he would find ways to make trouble with her.

There are few concubines in the harem, and Li Yu'an's busiest time of the day is when he is teaching Minglang his homework. Apart from that, he is just looking out for his wife.

People who are smart and idle will always come to cause trouble for her. It is better not to provoke them. Maintaining the status quo is fine. Liang Chongyue prefers this way of getting along very much.

"Yes, I obey your command."

Li Yu'an picked her up along with the quilt. The temperature of the floor heating in Kunning Palace was not higher than that in Yangxin Palace. It was renovated once later, but the effect was still not very good.

After all, it took a long time to build.

Liang Chongyue leaned back in the bathtub and let Li Yu'an take care of her. When she closed her eyes and was about to fall asleep, Li Yu'an carried her out. After drying her hair, she had a good night's sleep.

When Liang Chongyue woke up, Li Yu'an was holding up her head and playing with her hair. Seeing her wake up, he gently kissed her on the ear.

"Good morning, Your Majesty."

In Kunning Palace, from the time Liang Chongyue got up to the time she had breakfast and left, she only spoke. Everything else was handled by Li Yu'an. He even didn't allow others to do small things like changing her clothes.

When Liang Chongyue left Kunning Palace, everything was fine except for a sore waist.

The next few days would be her most leisurely days of the year. If it weren't so cold at this time of year, Liang Chongyue really wanted to go out of the palace for a trip. It didn't have to be far, just out of the capital.

After returning to the Yangxin Palace, Liang Chongyue stayed in the palace without going out. There were many rare books in the boxes sent by her uncles, many of which she had never seen.

Liang Chongyue was enjoying reading in the palace. Even when her mother came to see her, she was reluctant to leave the Yangxin Palace.

"Mother, this year is over. I feel that since my uncles have sent so many gifts to the palace, it would be inappropriate for me not to give them some gifts in return."

Liang Chongyue really couldn't stand her mother's nagging anymore. She really didn't want to leave the warm place of Yangxin Palace.

She had traveled to so many places in the first half of her life, and now she just wanted to stay in the temple and read.

Xiang Huayue had originally wanted to set off fireworks in the palace tonight and call Chongyue to watch together, but his thoughts were interrupted by her like this and he went astray.

"is it necessary?"

Xiang Huayue wanted to say that this was a gift from the Xiang family to their younger generation, and there was no need to reciprocate, but Chongyue was the emperor, and Minglang was the future princess. How could the Xiang family have the right to call the current emperor a younger generation? As soon as this sentence appeared in her mind, she was suppressed by Xiang Huayue.

"I think it's necessary."

Liang Chongyue turned the book he had not finished reading upside down on the table, lifted the blanket covering his legs, got up from the Arhat bed, walked around the hall twice, and then walked around his mother twice.

"Duke Dingguo's mansion lacks nothing, and now is the time for all the descendants to gather together. I think what grandparents want most right now is for Queen Mother to return home and have a reunion dinner with them."

Liang Chongyue played with the jade twist in his hand and nodded in agreement as he spoke.

"Does your Majesty think what I say makes sense?"

At this point, how could Xiang Huayue not understand what Chongyue was planning?

"You are always the most reasonable one. Who in this world dares to contradict your majesty?"

Naturally, no one dared to do that, not even Xiang Huayue.

"That's good. I know that my mother understands my painstaking efforts best."

"Someone is coming."

Liang Chongyue shouted towards the outer hall, and Yunling and Ping'an immediately walked in one after another.

"Send the Empress Dowager back to the palace to pack her things. Take Prince Bao back to the Duke's Mansion today to stay for five or six days, and then return the day before the All Nations come to pay homage."

After hearing this, Yunling and Ping'an lowered their heads and looked at each other. Seeing that the Empress Dowager did not take any action, they did not dare to speak out to persuade her.

"Your Majesty won't go?"

Liang Chongyue was silent for a moment, thinking of the few new children that had been added to the Duke's Mansion in the past few years.

"I won't go. If I go, they might not even dare to eat."

Liang Chongyue added after he finished speaking:

"When the day comes, I will personally go to pick up Mother and Minglang, and then we will have dinner together at the Duke's Mansion. It will be like a family dinner."

Liang Chongyue coaxed her mother away with a few words. There was no one in the inner hall, and no one disturbed her reading. Liang Chongyue sat back on the Arhat bed and had just covered herself with the blanket when she heard the system's voice ringing in her mind:

"Host, I want to go play with my mother too!"

The system was acting like a spoiled child in Liang Chongyue's mind, as endless as slaughtering a pig. Liang Chongyue had no choice but to call Yun Ling in and ask her to pass on the message.

"Let's go to the Cining Palace and see if it's convenient. Have the Queen Mother take the puppy with her, saying it's to protect Minglang's safety."

"Yes, slave, go right away."

After Yun Ling left, the sound of slaughtering pigs in Liang Chongyue's mind stopped.

"I know the host is the best, love you mua~"

Liang Chongyue ignored the system's deliberately nice words, hung up the connection directly, and began to immerse himself in his own books.

Ever since the host agreed to go to Duke Dingguo's Mansion together, the system has been following the queen mother closely.

Xiang Huayue was concerned about Xiang Yu and didn't want to bring the puppy with her. She was thinking about how to refuse when Yun Ling arrived and brought the emperor's oral instructions.

Xiang Huayue looked at the puppy squatting on the ground obediently. She didn't understand why Xiang Yu was not afraid of tall horses but puppies. He cried as soon as he saw the puppy. She didn't know why.

"When you go to the Duke's Mansion, puppies shouldn't scare people, especially children who are being held in their arms. Do you understand?"

Xiang Huayue had always known that puppies were human-like, but this was the first time she spoke to it like this, and there was no other way.

Ben didn't expect the puppy to respond, but after she finished speaking, the puppy barked softly, raised its front paws and touched the hem of her clothes as if in response.
