I traveled to the era of female supremacy and became a bad woman

Chapter 59: Requesting permission to suppress the bandits.

imperial study room

The Empress was reviewing memorials at her desk. Zhou Fuhai cooled the tea and brought it to her. "Your Majesty, please have some tea. Don't get tired."

The Queen took the tea and took a sip, her eyes still fixed on Shuwen. "How has Yun'er been these days?"

Zhou Fuhai: "Your Highness the King of War..."

At this moment, the young eunuch came in and reported, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Zhan requests an audience."

The Queen frowned slightly, "Zhou Fuhai, go ask her why she's here. If it's about the young master of the Xiao family, tell her to go back to the palace."

Zhou Fuhai wiped the sweat off his face and bowed respectfully, "Yes... Your Majesty..."

Zhou Fuhai's heart trembled. He knew that apart from the Queen, the person Shang Kingdom could not afford to offend the most was Feng Zhaoyun, who was the Queen's favorite.

Zhou Fuhai walked out. Feng Zhaoyun was wearing a black robe today, which made her skin look particularly pale. Her hair was tied up, making her look more noble and elegant.

Zhou Fuhai hurried forward and bowed respectfully, "Your Highness, are you well?"

Feng Zhaoyun looked at Zhou Fuhai, "What's the matter? Tell me quickly."

Zhou Fuhai wiped the sweat off his face with his sleeve. "His Majesty asked me to ask you why you came here. If it's for Young Master Xiao, please go back."

Feng Zhaoyun lowered his brows, then looked at Zhou Fuhai, "This king...is here for Master Feng."

Zhou Fuhai smiled flatteringly, "Your Highness, please come in~"

Feng Zhaoyun strode in. Jiuyi was standing outside the imperial study waiting.

Feng Zhaoyun entered the imperial study, knelt down and saluted, "Your son pays homage to your mother."

The Queen looked at her with a hint of heartache in her eyes and chuckled, "What's the matter? I never see you kneeling when you are in good health. What happened today that is worth your kneeling?" The Queen said as she casually flipped through the documents.

Feng Zhaoyun stood up and said, "Mother, I would like to request troops to go to the south to suppress the bandits."

The Queen was startled, looked up at Feng Zhaoyun, and then put down the document in her hand. "You are so sentimental! You are nothing like your father!"

Feng Zhaoyun remained silent.

The Queen looked at Zhou Fuhai and said, "What are you standing there for? Get out of here!"

Zhou Fuhai and others knelt down quickly and said, "Yes..." Then everyone in the imperial study left.

The Queen gestured for Feng Zhaoyun to sit on the couch beside the bed, while she sat on the other side. "Yun'er, sit down and play chess with me first."

Feng Zhaoyun nodded and sat down.

The Queen gave birth to a child, "Do you know that the southern part is not just about suppressing bandits? The southern part involves the royal family of the neighboring country."

Feng Zhaoyun took his son, "I know that Master Feng once saved me. No matter what, I will go."

The Queen smiled. "You are truly loyal and righteous. Before, when I asked you to lead the troops, you kept shirking your responsibilities. Now, for the sake of a man, you insist on going. Well, we'll set off in three days! Take care of yourself first."

Feng Zhaoyun nodded, "Thank you, mother. One more thing..."

The Queen didn't raise her eyes, but looked at the chessboard. "If you insist on mentioning the young master of the Xiao family today, then you don't have to go to the south."

Feng Zhaoyun was stunned. "But mother... Xiao Qingyue has not lost her innocence."

The Queen looked at Feng Zhaoyun, raised her eyes and scolded him, "What does it matter whether it's lost or not? It has nothing to do with you. If you mention this matter again, you will stay in the palace for a few months to reflect on yourself and do nothing!"

Feng Zhaoyun's face was dejected. "Mother... could you please wait for me to come back before sending Nangong Liuying back to the country?"

The Queen smiled, knowing what her daughter was thinking. She sighed and held her son. "Even if I wanted her to leave, she couldn't. You can go with peace of mind. Remember! Come back alive! You're just a man, don't try to be so stubborn."

Feng Zhaoyun said nothing and continued to play chess with the empress.

He had thought long ago that if the Queen didn't want to, he would use the secret guards to kidnap Xiao Qingyue. But Yun Jin was in such a dangerous situation at the moment, he decided to go to the south first, come back, and rescue Qingyue.

Feng Zhaoyun played chess for a while, then stood up and bowed, "Mother, it's getting late. I'll take my leave now."

The Queen nodded and said, "Go ahead. Take care of your injuries for the next two days. There's nothing to worry about. You don't need to come back to the palace."

Feng Zhaoyun bowed, turned around and walked out of the imperial study.

Zhou Fuhai walked in and said, "Your Majesty, the Emperor invites you to dinner."

The Queen walked to the desk and picked up a pen. "Tomorrow, you will take this imperial edict to the General's Mansion."

Zhou Fuhai saluted and said, "Yes."

...........

Back at the palace, just as the carriage arrived at the door, Jiuyi knocked on the door, "Your Highness, it's Master Xiao."

Feng Zhaoyun did not say a word in the carriage as it drove to the main gate of the palace.

Xiao Qingyue had been waiting here for an hour when she heard that Feng Zhaoyun had left the mansion. When she saw Feng Zhaoyun's carriage, she hurried forward.

Feng Zhaoyun got off the carriage and looked at Xiao Qingyue.

When Xiao Qingyue saw Feng Zhaoyun’s pale skin, she felt distressed and walked towards Feng Zhaoyun.

Xiao Qingyue looked at Feng Zhaoyun and smiled gently, "Your Highness, are you feeling better?"

Feng Zhaoyun looked at the man in front of him, who was still as gentle and elegant as jade. He then smiled and said, "Qingyue, let's talk inside."

The two entered the palace, walked to the palace garden, and sat down. The maids served tea and snacks.

Feng Zhaoyun looked at Xiao Qingyue, "Qingyue, have you been feeling better recently?"

Xiao Qingyue nodded gently, "It's already healed, Your Highness...are you feeling better?"

Feng Zhaoyun smiled sweetly and nodded, "Yes! It's fine now. Qingyue..."

Xiao Qingyue looked at her infatuatedly, "Your Highness, what's the matter..."

Feng Zhaoyun looked worried. "In three days, I will lead my troops to the south to suppress bandits. While I'm gone, you must stay at the General's Mansion and don't go out without permission."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Qingyue's eyes dimmed slightly, "Your Highness, are you going here for Master Feng?"

Feng Zhaoyun nodded, "Yes, Yun Jin has been missing for several days and there is no news. Bandits are rampant in the south, so I must go there."

Xiao Qingyue looked down at the tea, it turned out to be because of Feng Yunjin...

After sorting out her thoughts, she realized that no matter how many people were around His Highness, she didn't care. She looked up and smiled gently, "Your Highness, you must come back safely. Qingyue will be waiting for you."

Feng Zhaoyun felt warmed after hearing this and nodded...

"Qingyue, you must wait for me to come back..."
