After the Empress became a mother, the system gave me the Immortal Emperor's cultivation

"Your Majesty, what happened? Why did Mr. Chu leave? We haven't finished our meal yet."

"Eat your meal and don't ask any more questions."

Ye Qinglian's tone was cold, and a complex look flickered in her eyes.

What do you mean? After I exposed your true inner thoughts, you left and wanted to hide from me?

Or was he seen through?

But why do I feel empty inside after saying this, as if something is suddenly missing in my life?

Ye Qinglian sneered in her heart.

Chu Ning has been in the palace for only three days now, and he must have some ulterior motive for being so attentive.

If not for power or profit, what else could it be?

If you plot against her, you will have the kingdom?

The Ye family's kingdom was passed down from generation to generation, and it was the only thing left to her by the late emperor. It was impossible to hand it over to others. This was the bottom line. As for the rest, Chu Ning could get whatever she wanted.

Why does he use this trick, playing hard to get? Does he think she can't see through it?

But right now, I don’t have much appetite.

"You can eat the remaining Xiaobing. I don't have much appetite anymore. I'm going to rest first."

Xiaobing became even more confused.

It’s fine if you don’t want to eat, sir, but why doesn’t Your Majesty want to eat either?

It seems like this bowl has not been finished yet. Isn’t this your Majesty’s favorite food?

Xiaobing, who clearly sensed that Ye Qinglian was in a bad mood, didn't dare to say anything more.

"Then I will clean it up first."

"Ah."

On the bed, Ye Qinglian was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, and the changes in Chu Ning's expression were the same as before.

It seemed like he was indeed a person who was keen on sharing. He talked about Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty in great detail. I had never heard of the Ming Dynasty. As for Chu Ning's hometown, wasn't it the Daqian Dynasty? Where else could it be?

There are only five dynasties in the Tianxuan Continent, each occupying a vast territory. Each dynasty has a name and a surname. She has read history books thoroughly and is knowledgeable. She has never heard of such a dynasty, nor has she heard of the methods that Chu Ning mentioned.

The means by which the emperor centralized power were so sophisticated that they were beyond the conceivable reach of an ordinary person.

If Chu Ning didn't know all this and was just an ordinary person, Ye Qinglian would naturally not say much, but she only had this dynasty and would not give it up to others, which made it difficult for her to decide what to do for a while.

Deliberately ignore her, keep her away, and even stop cooking for her?

If you don’t want to do it, then don’t do it. If you ignore him, then ignore him. He is just the father of the child after all. In the future, you will take care of the child for her in the harem and just do your duty!

She doesn't need other people's care, she can still do well alone!

Thinking this way, Ye Qinglian kept convincing herself, but she still couldn't help feeling depressed...

She is the king of a country and a top cultivator, why would she have so many thoughts because of such a small matter!

One night, I fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, Ye Qinglian opened her eyes.

She didn't sleep well last night. There were too many things that needed her attention, including the implementation of the dynasty's new political system, today's memorials, and Chu Ning.

This bastard insisted on saying those words yesterday. Doesn’t he know that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics?

Although she had never planned to have a harem, one emperor would be enough, but even if it was an emperor, it wouldn't work!

There are too many cases of the harem interfering in politics and disrupting the country, and the number of cases is too numerous to count. She wants to be the number one monarch in the world, unify the Tianxuan Continent, and build a peak dynasty. She can't let such a thing happen!

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but extend her spiritual sense to check what Chu Ning was doing.

Sleeping.

As expected, he didn't even do what he promised her at the beginning.

She really was overthinking it. She had always thought Chu Ning was an extremely responsible man who truly cared about her. Now that his lies had been exposed, she felt utterly ashamed...

"Xiaobing, change your clothes."

Outside the door, the girl also pushed it open and ran over.

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister sent word that the new political system Your Majesty is implementing was nearly complete yesterday and is scheduled to begin testing today. Since Your Majesty intends to cultivate herself, the memorial will be immediately implemented according to Your Majesty's plan and will be handled by the six ministries and cabinets. When the processing is complete, it will be sent to Your Majesty. It will be implemented for a few days so Your Majesty can see the results."

"Send a message to Mr. Qiu, I agree, and it will be carried out according to the rules."

Xiao Bing smiled happily: "Your Majesty has more time now, so you can take Mr. Chu for a walk or something. Xiao Bing was thinking that although Your Majesty is the monarch of the Daqian Dynasty, you are pregnant now anyway. It would be too strange for you to be too distant from Mr. Chu. If the dragon son notices that you are unwell in the future, it might affect..."

Ye Qinglian sneered: "Why should I accompany him? As long as he is not discovered now, he can go wherever he wants. I am busy with state affairs and don't have time!"

"But now is not the time..."

"Xiaobing, there are some things you can't say."

Ye Qinglian's eyes were cold and she was obviously in a bad mood.

After hearing this, the girl said no more.

Sure enough, something went wrong...

I spent most of the night thinking about it yesterday. What kind of trouble are these two people causing?

I'll ask Mr. Chu later...

She was also thinking about their relationship. Although Mr. Chu seemed a little unreliable, she felt he was still very reliable...

For the happiness of His Majesty and for her enjoyment!

Soon, after changing clothes, Xiaobing hurried out.

"Mr. prepared breakfast this morning and asked Xiaobing to bring it over."

Ye Qinglian frowned slightly and asked in confusion: "Isn't he sleeping? When was breakfast ready?"

Xiao Bing smiled and said, "These past few days, we've been doing it before dawn, just like before. But today, Mr. Chu said he was too sleepy, so he went to rest first. According to the rules, I am the one who will do it."

Ye Qinglian glanced sideways, watching Xiaobing open the plates one by one.

Except for her favorite Dragon Marrow Jade Soup, all the dishes are new and no two are the same!

He really did what he agreed to do...

Looking at the food on the table, I felt very uncomfortable because Chu Ning was missing.

When Ye Qinglian thought of what she had thought before, her eyes became complicated.

Could it be that she was really making presumptuous assumptions about Chu Ning?

"Your Majesty, shall we have our meal first?"

"Ah."

After breakfast, go to Mingde Hall.

Three days after the court was established, the prime minister formed a cabinet to implement the new political system and issued orders to bureaucrats and government offices across the country to unify the new policies and implement the performance evaluation system, promotion system and new appointment assessment system.

But why are there no memorials?

By the way, the memorial was first sent to the six ministries and then forwarded to the new cabinet. The only thing left was a list sent by Prime Minister Qiu Zun.

Regarding the arrangements for personnel in the six ministries.

Qiu Zun was the prime minister of two dynasties. He was a reliable person who was loyal to the emperor and the country. Some of the personnel from the six ministries and the list of the new cabinet he submitted were Qiu Zun's people, and some were some capable talents in the court. He did not show favoritism.

He then added: The new law needs to take effect within a few days. I sincerely request Your Majesty to give it time and not to talk lightly and waste effort.

The general idea was that it would take some time for the new law to take effect, so she shouldn't stress herself out too quickly due to the current situation.

Ye Qinglian was of course aware that the implementation of any new law would require a period of adjustment. In the beginning, she would issue penalties for government affairs that were not handled well, then review them herself and forward them to the cabinet for issuance. Later on, it would become much easier.

But right now, it seemed like there was nothing for her to do.

Ye Qinglian, who has always been diligent in her work, probably saw the effect of this new law.

If the officials in the court could really be virtuous and display their virtues, then she would have more time to cultivate herself and take care of her pregnancy in the future.

Ye Qinglian's brows were downcast, and he felt a little uncomfortable for a moment, but he still waited in the hall for the new memorial to be delivered, and he began to practice directly.

It was noon when she gradually came back to her senses.

Judging from the time, Chu Ning should have come over to deliver the meal.

"Your Majesty, Xiaobing has brought you food."

The girl carried the lunch into the hall and put it away. Ye Qinglian had a blank expression on her face.

"Oh, you know it's you who should deliver the food?"

Xiao Bing smiled awkwardly when she heard this: "Before, Mr. Chu didn't give me any chance at all, and I couldn't afford to offend him."

"Can I offend you now?"

Xiaobing shook her head.

"The master said that family and country have their own responsibilities and cannot be mixed up. Mingde Hall is the core of the Daqian Dynasty. Its status is sensitive. Entering it recklessly will easily lead to gossip and may be accused by some people of interfering in state affairs. Therefore, we strictly abide by the will of Your Majesty and dare not tamper lightly..."

Ye Qinglian pursed her lips upon hearing this and couldn't help but clench her fists.

If you don’t want to come, then don’t come. By not coming, you won’t have to listen to those nonsense and your ears will be free!

She knew she had to obey orders at this time. Why didn't she listen before? Why did she have to choose the time when she was most upset...

Deliberate, definitely deliberate...
