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

Xiaobing was also stunned when she heard this.

"No, why would Chu Ning curse His Majesty behind his back?"

"That's because you don't know. Yesterday he called me a tyrant."

"what??"

Xiao Bing was even more bewildered, but she immediately explained, "I didn't scold Your Majesty. I just asked Chu Ning about his attitude towards Your Majesty."

Ye Qinglian snorted coldly.

"Do I need to know his attitude towards me? I'm keeping him here now simply to provide him with companionship when my son is born. This is his sole purpose. No matter what he thinks of me behind my back, it won't change anything!"

"Uh... I think Your Majesty may have thought too badly of Chu Ning. He is actually not that kind of person."

Ye Qinglian looked at him expressionlessly, "What kind of person he is isn't determined by just looking at him overnight, his words and deeds. How many people have you met to judge him as not that kind of person? You've only known him for a day."

Xiao Bing thought for a moment and decided not to say anything. His Majesty, due to his status, has a strong sense of self-preservation...

Unless Your Majesty changes his mind, whatever you say or see will be of basically no use.

However, just as Xiaobing was about to leave, Ye Qinglian spoke lightly.

"What did he say today?"

Xiaobing smiled when she heard that.

Your Majesty is still more concerned about Chu Ning's attitude...

"Chu Ning said that he actually has no true feelings for His Majesty..."

Ye Qinglian's expression remained unchanged, but her heart sank and she felt a little complicated.

"Oh! So what? Do I really have feelings for him?"

"This person somehow broke into my secret room while I was in seclusion, leading to everything that happened later. How could anyone in the world have any genuine feelings for him based on something like this?"

"As I said, I just don't want my child to be born without a father, that's all..."

There was actually no need for her to say anything more, but the desire to win in her mind made her unable to help but speak out.

Why did he say such insincere words when she was just moved by Chu Ning's behavior today?

It was obviously she who suffered the loss, and it was Chu Ning who broke it all...

She clenched her fists tightly, and her expression became even more complicated after she finished speaking.

Xiaobing had been following Ye Qinglian for many years and could tell at a glance.

With Her Majesty's personality, it is impossible for her to develop a normal relationship with Chu Ning, so she encouraged Chu Ning to take the initiative!

Look, you already have children. If you have a better relationship, won’t you be happier when your children are born in the future?

Xiao Bing smiled and said, "But Chu Ning also said that even if he and His Majesty have a son, it is right not to be sincere when they first meet."

"Oh! If that's the case, why is he so self-indulgent? Could it be that I still need such a cook?"

If she said anything more, her defense would be broken. Ye Qinglian had never faced such a thing before, and she felt an inexplicable sense of tearing in her heart.

So yesterday and this morning were all fake, and she didn't take it to heart at all?

Seeing this, Xiao Bing continued, "But Chu Ning also said that the relationship between him and His Majesty is now more like a kind of responsibility."

"Just like the people in the court, they were granted titles and appointed as ministers for fame and fortune. Just like when Xiao Bing entered the palace to serve His Majesty, it was also for better treatment..."

"He also said that so-called sincerity is false, and true sincerity comes from the process of continuous interaction and understanding. Now he has a responsibility and a commitment to His Majesty, and he wants to take the initiative to shoulder all of this and do his best."

Ye Qinglian was slightly stunned.

I guess I understand.

Now the court is concerned about Daqian and is sincerely willing to watch this country develop.

And Xiaobing is really thinking about her.

Everything is constantly changing, and Chu Ning's opinion of her will gradually change. Correspondingly, she will also?

These words seem to be more reliable than sincerity...

Ye Qinglian's face suddenly turned red and she turned around abruptly.

"I am the Supreme Ruler, following the will of Heaven and responding to the will of the people. Why should I need Chu Ning to be responsible for anything?"

"Go back and tell Chu Ning to stay quietly in his own little world, stop doing weird things, and stop saying such things!"

"Okay, Your Majesty, I'll leave..."

Can Xiaobing speak?

Obviously not.

Your Majesty, I am saying this out of anger because I am shy and moved.

She knew this empress very well. She was tough on the outside but gentle on the inside. She cared a lot about the people and things around her, but she looked fierce on the surface.

So it's impossible to say! She was still hoping to get more food!

In Mingde Palace, after Xiaobing left, Ye Qinglian suddenly clenched his fists!

"Bah! Do I need you to be responsible? You took my body and made me pregnant. Do you think I need you to be responsible? You're dreaming!"

"You are just the child's father, that's all!"

As she spoke, her flushed face gradually calmed down.

How to resolve the trivial troubles in your heart?

Only by handling government affairs can you avoid distraction!

But while doing it, I always get distracted...

Xiaobing shouldn’t have said those words. I can’t let Xiaobing say them in the future!

But actually, I am still a little happy.

At least this guy has nothing but is willing to take responsibility...

At noon.

There was a squeak.

Ye Qinglian has returned to normal and is frantically dealing with memorials.

She had to prepare two thousand memorials a day and could not rest until she finished them. She was extremely strict with herself.

"Xiaobing, is it lunch?"

"Put it down first, I'll eat it later."

I'll process another two hundred, take a break to eat, and then continue working. Right now, I'm in a state of confusion, thinking about border affairs...

With a clatter, the dinner plate was placed on the table, which sounded particularly harsh in the hall where only the sound of writing could be heard.

Ye Qinglian didn't care and remained fully focused.

Suddenly, she felt someone tapping her shoulder.

A pair of chopsticks were placed at her lips, holding a piece of cake.

Ye Qinglian frowned, but still ate it in one bite.

"I said, we'll eat later, no need to do this..."

The pastries melted in the mouth and were very appetizing. Ye Qinglian, who had been hungry all morning, smacked her lips.

"The chef did a good job today. I'll reward him with some silver later and give him another piece."

The chopsticks picked up another piece of paper. After finishing a memorial, she was ready to continue eating.

Just like that, one bite after another.

"Strange, why does today's food taste so good..."

Really greedy, Ye Qinglian put down the memorial in her hand and suddenly stood up.

"Xiaobing, today's chef..."

She was suddenly stunned, took three steps back in fear, and stared at Chu Ning in front of her with wide eyes.

And Chu Ning was holding a pair of chopsticks in his hand!

"Why are you here? Isn't that Xiaobing?"

She had been eating for half an hour and didn't notice that the person next to her was Chu Ning!

"Hey, the food is good, isn't it? I made it specially!"

Chu Ning looked at Ye Qinglian in front of him with a smile: "So, Qinglian, did you praise me just now?"

Ye Qinglian's expression was unfriendly, and she said in a cold voice, "I have already told you several times that you are not allowed to leave the palace where you live. Even if I ask you to go to the Qianqing Palace, you need Xiaobing to accompany you. Otherwise, if someone finds out, you will be exposed!"

Chu Ning was stunned when he heard this and sighed.

"It turns out that I am so embarrassed in front of you..."

"My kindness is in vain. If that's the case, I will definitely not leave the palace from now on."

After saying that, Chu Ning turned and left.

Ye Qinglian was furious and grabbed Chu Ning!

"I mean, if you're caught leaving the palace, it'll get you into trouble. Don't you know that men are not allowed to enter or leave the harem?"

"Even if you have to stay in the palace and feel uncomfortable, you have to let Xiaobing take you when you go out. Besides, you are my future emperor, so what can't you show off?"

"So Qinglian, you really don't dislike me?"

Ye Qinglian was speechless.

"I've already brought you back to the palace, what's there to dislike?"

Chu Ning chuckled when he heard that, it was all fake.

"It's okay, no one found me. I did it very secretly. I know the severity of the matter better than you!"

Ye Qinglian seemed to laugh out of anger, and sneered at Chu Ning: "No one found out, do you think I will believe it?"

"How about we make a bet? If no one finds me, will you agree to one condition?"

"it is good!"

Ye Qinglian gave the order directly!

"Where are the secret guards? Come and see me immediately!"

The entire palace area from the Main Hall to the Mingde Hall is under surveillance by secret guards, who are more powerful and more secretive than the Dragon Guards!

In the dynasty, only she and Xiaobing knew about the existence of these people!

Ye Qinglian casually cast a barrier spell to hide Chu Ning's figure, and a woman in black instantly appeared in the hall.

Chu Ning chuckled and narrowed his eyes slightly to look at the woman in black.

"Greetings, Your Majesty! May I ask why Your Majesty summoned me?"

Ye Qinglian sneered and said, "Besides Xiao Bing, who else came to Mingde Hall today?"

The woman immediately reported: "There is no one else except her!"

Ye Qinglian drew her sword instantly!

"Nonsense! How could you possibly let someone sneak in right under your noses?"

What a joke! Chu Ning was standing right here, but his figure was obscured by her.

In addition to coming from the main hall, he could also come from their place. The Mingde Hall was being closely watched by the secret guards!

The woman panicked instantly and knelt hurriedly: "Your Majesty, I really didn't notice anyone coming in. We are doing our duty faithfully. Not even a fly could have gotten in. If Your Majesty doesn't believe me, you can summon the other secret guards. I really didn't lie!"

Ye Lianyi looked stunned at this moment.

No trace of Chu Ning was found?

Could it be that Chu Ning flew over? Even if he flew over, he would be discovered!

Besides, he came in through the main entrance!

Ye Qinglian looked towards Chu Ning and saw a smug look on his face!

The secret guards are absolutely loyal to her and cannot be bribed.

So how did this guy get in?

"Forget it, leave now. Today's incident will not happen again!"

"Thank you for your grace!"

The woman retreated immediately, and Chu Ning also coughed lightly at this moment.

"Well, Your Majesty, I never joke..."

"You have to do what you promised me, right?"

Ye Qinglian became alert instantly!

This man is deliberately setting a trap for him!

She slowly raised the sword, pointed it at Chu Ning, and sneered.

"Oh? What do you mean by 'the emperor never jokes'? Did I say anything?"

Chu Ning's face was filled with grief and anger!

"Qinglian, there's no such thing as you. I even called him Your Majesty, it shouldn't be that serious!"

Ye Qinglian calmly put away the sword, expressionless.

"Shouldn't you shout?"

"I am your future husband. What if I call you Your Majesty and the child feels something is wrong?"

Chu Ning chuckled and pulled Ye Qinglian to sit down.

"No matter how busy you are, you have to eat first, then continue working. I'll clean up later."

"whispering sound......"

"Don't touch me, I can walk on my own."

"What's the big deal? We'll be sleeping in the same bed anyway, so wouldn't it be nice to get familiar with it in advance?"

Ye Qinglian instantly glared and her face flushed red!

"You are so vulgar! This is the imperial palace, and I am the emperor of the Daqian Dynasty!"

Chu Ning looked confused.

"Isn't that my future wife too?"

Ye Qinglian was suddenly stunned.

By the way, this guy doesn’t care about face or royal status.

Just ignore him!

You want to sleep in one bed? That’s wishful thinking!

As soon as he sat down, Chu Ning's Dragon Marrow Jade Soup was handed to him.

"Your Majesty, please have your meal!"

Seeing this, Ye Qinglian's complexion improved slightly.

"If you haven't eaten, just sit down and eat with us."
