My husband is pure and has few desires, but I gave birth to three children in a row

Lu Zhenzhen hummed and said only one sentence: "Your Majesty's power is unpredictable today."

Fu Zhiyi patted Lu Zhenzhen's shoulder with understanding.

Lu Zhenzhen then described to Fu Zhiyi in detail everything that happened after entering the palace.

After finishing speaking, he still looked at Fu Zhiyi with some trepidation: "I shouldn't have said anything wrong, right?"

If it was before, she would naturally not ask this question.

But now the situation is different from before. The situation in the palace is complicated and the emperor is moody, so she is unsure.

I was afraid that any wrong words would hurt the emperor's feelings.

It’s okay to poke someone else’s heart, but if you poke the emperor’s heart, you might accidentally get a Nine Clans Candy Crush gift pack. How can you not be worried?

During the day in the palace, she always had a smile on her face and spoke as if she were the same as she did five years ago, without any ulterior motives, and just said whatever she wanted to say.

But in reality, she was sweating all the time, and she went over each sentence several times before speaking it.

She knew that the emperor had appointed her as the village chief because of her contribution in bookkeeping.

But later she was promoted to county lady and princess, partly because she wanted to use Fu Zhiyi and partly because she treated the emperor with sincerity.

Although she may not be very sincere in her heart, she is at least 80% true and 20% false in front of the emperor.

Therefore, she had to strike a balance between truth and falsehood in her words during the day, and to show the emperor that she was still as sincere to him as she was five years ago, and had no other intentions.

They also had to pay constant attention to the emperor's micro-expressions and movements, add a little joke, and pretend not to know, just chatting about family matters and what they saw and heard on the road, and then tell him what the emperor wanted to know.

At the end of the day, half of my brain cells are exhausted.

This trip to the palace was really brain-wracking.

Even so, she didn't dare say that she was very thorough.

Although she received many rewards and Chengzi became the village chief, the more kindness she received, the more afraid Lu Zhenzhen felt.

On the way home from work, Lu Zhenzhen had already told Uncle Lan what had happened. Uncle Lan didn't know if he wanted to warn her or for some other reason, but he just said that she was very bold and dared to say anything in front of the emperor.

Later he sighed and said that this might be her blessing, and didn't say anything more.

Lu Zhenzhen wanted to ask more questions, but since they were already at the Lan family, she couldn't ask in front of everyone.

It was only natural to ask Fu Zhiyi at this moment. After all, in this world, if she were to say which two men she trusted the most and felt were the most reliable, one would be Uncle Lan and the other would be Fu Zhiyi.

Fu Zhiyi hurriedly consoled him, "Your response today was flawless. Excellent! Even better than most officials appointed by the imperial court."

"My uncle said you were so bold. First, he was afraid that if you said something wrong, you would offend His Majesty. Second, he said that you were ignorant and fearless. You dared to say anything and did not regard His Majesty as the supreme ruler with the power of life and death."

"Your boldness has obvious advantages and disadvantages. The benefits are obvious. His Majesty values ​​you very much and trusts your words."

"The drawbacks are obvious. When His Majesty is listening, he'll feel your sincerity. But if one day His Majesty can't listen, it will be jarring. At that point, finding any fault would be a grave sin."

Lu Zhenzhen felt a chill on her back. She was too arrogant.

After all, she was not a native of this dynasty. Even though she tried hard to remind herself and restrain herself, the imprint of her education in her previous life and the times she lived in still showed in some places.

Having lived in a world where everyone is equal for more than 20 years, even though she always reminds herself that the emperor is the supreme ruler who has the final say over life and death, when she really gets along with others, she sometimes forgets the difference in status and class.

There will always be a hint of it inadvertently revealed in words and actions.

It's just that because her words made people happy, no one pursued the matter.

If you really want to investigate, many of her words and attitudes cannot stand up to scrutiny.

"Then, what should we do?" Lu Zhenzhen was really panicked.

Fu Zhiyi sensed Lu Zhenzhen's fear and quickly hugged her in his arms, carefully comforting her: "Don't worry, don't be afraid! You have your husband and uncle! Didn't your uncle say that this might be a blessing for you?"

"Don't you understand? Although Your Majesty has many wives, concubines, and children, it's lonely up there. There's no family affection in the royal family. Even the Prince of Jin and the Fourth Princess are His Majesty's beloved children, but the feelings between them are not pure."

"And you have always been sincere to His Majesty, never hiding anything. You treat His Majesty not as a ruler, but as an elder."

"This bit of tenderness is probably what Your Majesty desires but cannot find in his own children."

"You've made His Majesty feel a little like an ordinary father, knowing that there are younger generations too. You speak to him without beating around the bush, without hiding anything, knowing when to advance and when to retreat, and knowing when to stop. Furthermore, you're also filial. If you have any good things, you always give them to His Majesty first. Whenever you have any good things, you always remember His Majesty and always keep him in your heart."

"With your sincerity, His Majesty, though he may not say it, recognizes you in his heart! He can rest assured to love you and give you some honors without worrying about these honors damaging his status. This is your blessing."

Lu Zhenzhen thought about it for a while before finally understanding what Fu Zhiyi meant. "You mean, because I'm such a bold person and can speak freely to His Majesty, I've earned His Majesty's trust and love?"

Fu Zhiyi nodded.

Lu Zhenzhen breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest: "That's good, that's good."

I couldn't help but murmur: "Your Majesty is so pitiful——"

Fu Zhiyi covered his mouth with his hand while he continued speaking. "Your Majesty is rich and powerful, and he controls the entire world. He is truly feared and admired!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Lu Zhenzhen nodded quickly.

Pulling Fu Zhiyi's hand away, she thought thoughtfully, "No wonder His Majesty is so happy today and gave Orange the title of Village Master. Besides the reason he gave, it's probably more because the bean buns, glutinous rice balls, and oranges allowed him to enjoy the rare joy of family."

Fu Zhiyi nodded silently.

"But doesn't His Majesty have grandchildren? Don't his grandchildren dare to get close to His Majesty? Even if the princes are young and strong, making His Majesty wary of them, the grandchildren are still young." Lu Zhenzhen still felt that everything in the palace was too depressing.

Fu Zhiyi chuckled, "Although the Imperial Grandson is young, he has the Imperial Sons behind him. Doting on one of them more will have different meanings. Therefore, Your Majesty can only treat them equally and keep a distance."

Lu Zhenzhen shook her head, not knowing what to say.

The couple was silent for a moment, and Lu Zhenzhen suddenly remembered something: "Oh, by the way, the fourth princess's consort, the youngest son of the Duke of Ying, was said to have been chosen by His Majesty first. What is Your Majesty doing?"

Fu Zhiyi rubbed his forehead. "Right now, the imperial court is in a three-way balance of power. The Prince of Jin's influence is mostly among the civil officials, and he has no influence among the military generals. Your Majesty is probably trying to balance the situation, or for some other reason, to give the Prince of Jin more leverage."

Lu Zhenzhen's eyes lit up: "Is that so?"

Fu Zhiyi covered Lu Zhenzhen's eyes and said, "It's too early to say these things now. Perhaps this is another test from His Majesty for Prince Jin."

"So what?" Lu Zhenzhen asked strugglingly.

"So it's getting late, we should rest!" After Fu Zhiyi said that, he hugged the person tightly and closed his eyes.
