After being married off by my younger sister, I took care of the sickly prince

Fu Ming looked at Changning like this and was so angry that he couldn't speak for a moment.

He put down the chopsticks in his hand heavily and glared at Fu Anle: "Changning, I'm asking you a question!"

Fu Anle placed the chopsticks in his hand gently on the table with a helpless look on his face, and when he looked up at Fu Ming, his eyes were already filled with tears.

"Father, I just want to find someone I love and spend my life with. I didn't know that the matchmaker didn't even help me find a partner. I feel wronged!"

Just at this moment, Concubine De walked in with the young eunuch.

Seeing this, she immediately knelt down towards Fu Ming.

"Your Majesty, long live the emperor."

Fu Ming pinched his brows and said, "Stand up! Someone, give Concubine De a seat!"

Upon hearing this, Concubine De did not stand up. Instead, she looked up at Fu Ming and asked, "Your Majesty, has Changning upset Your Majesty again?"

Upon hearing this, Fu Ming put down his hand and looked at Concubine De helplessly, "I am just worried. Changning has not yet married. What should I do in the future?"

Upon hearing this, Concubine De's face visibly relaxed. She pursed her lips and smiled, "Your Majesty, blame me if you want to! If I hadn't spoiled Changning to such a spoiled state that those noble families were afraid to approach her, the situation today wouldn't have happened."

Fu Ming raised his eyes and looked at her. "If you say so, then isn't it my fault?"

A faint smile appeared on the corner of Defei's mouth, but she said nothing, as if everything was implied.

Fu Ming coughed lightly, his tone filled with unquestionable majesty: "Since the search within the city has yielded no results, why not cast your eyes outside the city? I don't believe that my royal princess will have trouble finding a suitable prince consort!"

Concubine De nodded slightly and responded softly, "Your Majesty is absolutely right."

Fu Ming spoke in a gentle, caring tone, "Alright, please get up and take a seat. I know you haven't eaten because you're worried about Changning."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your understanding." Defei replied softly, then slowly stood up and sat down next to Princess Changning.

Fu Anle sat upright on the chair, his eyes lowered, silent and listening without saying a word.

After Concubine De took her seat, Fu Ming picked up the chopsticks again and picked up the dishes.

Seeing this, Fu Anle also picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of food and put it into Concubine De's bowl.

Concubine De looked at the dishes in the bowl, picked up her chopsticks and tasted them quietly.

After the banquet, Fu Ming was the first to leave: "I am a little full, I will go for a walk to help digestion. You don't have to be so formal, just do as you please."

Jinzhong immediately stepped forward and carefully helped Fu Ming out of the Xuanzheng Hall.

After everyone respectfully saw Fu Ming off, Concubine De was the first to stand up. She took Fu Anle's hand, her face full of anger: "Changning, you go back with me!"

Seeing this, Fu Anle hurriedly explained, "Mother, did you hear someone's gossip? I didn't get into any trouble today. Mother! Father just rewarded me! If you don't believe me, you can ask Xuan Yu and Jiang Yun!"

Concubine De took a few deep breaths, trying to calm herself down, then looked at Fu Xuanyu. Seeing Fu Xuanyu nod in confirmation, she turned around and snorted coldly at Fu Anle.

"Before the banquet, didn't I tell you to be careful with your words and actions, and to keep silent if possible? But you threw my words to the wind!"

Fu Anle pouted: "If I hadn't spoken up for justice today, I wouldn't have been able to get a princess's mansion. I think it's worth it!"

De Fei looked at her puzzledly: "What did you say? What Princess Mansion?"

Mentioning this, Fu Anle's face was filled with joy. "Mother, today the Emperor praised my excellent performance, so I took the opportunity to ask for a reward. He asked the Emperor to grant me the house across from the Chong'an Palace as my princess residence! The Emperor has agreed, and I can move in once the Ministry of Works finishes repairing it!"

De Fei's eyes widened, and she asked in disbelief, "You personally asked to come to the Princess's Mansion? Are you moving out of the palace?"

Seeing Concubine De's reaction, Fu Anle thought her mother was sad, and quickly comforted her: "Mother, is Changning's behavior sad to you? Don't worry, I will come back to the palace to visit you when I have the chance."

Concubine De waved her hand, a look of joy on her face: "No need! You should manage your business well outside the palace, and when you have the chance in the future, you can take me to the Princess's residence to live out my retirement!"

She was already tired of life in the palace.

There was no love between her and the emperor as husband and wife, only the friendship between monarch and subject.

She had never expected the emperor's true love. The emperor knew her feelings, so he showed her a lot of favors on the surface, making everyone in the harem mistakenly believe that the emperor was devoted to her and would always protect the queen.

Although the Emperor no longer pretends to be affectionate with the Empress after her personality changed drastically, everyone in the harem still sees her as an enemy...

She only hoped that one day she could leave the palace and live a carefree and unrestrained life.

In the past, Changning was reluctant to leave the palace, so she thought about enduring it until Changning got married.

Now that Changning has suddenly come to her senses and is willing to move out of the palace, she is extremely happy. How could she be sad?

Upon hearing this, Fu Anle looked at Concubine De in surprise.

De Fei smiled and stopped pulling Chang Ning. Instead, she took her arm affectionately and praised her: "Oh, I never thought that my Chang Ning has finally come to her senses."

Fu Anle looked confused.

So her mother actually wanted her to leave the palace and set up her own house a long time ago?

She thought her mother wanted her to stay by her side!

Concubine De patted her hands gently, then turned to Fu Xuanyu and Jiang Yun and said with a smile, "From now on, I'll trouble you to bear with Changning! If she does anything that makes you unhappy, please feel free to discipline her. I will have no complaints."

Fu Anle widened his eyes again.

Her mother just handed her over to someone else with confidence?

And let others discipline her at will?

Fu Xuanyu had always had a good impression of Concubine De, and nodded when he heard this: "Don't worry, Concubine De, Ayun and I will take good care of the emperor's sister."

Jiang Yun also nodded in agreement with a smile.

Upon seeing this, Concubine De took Changning away with peace of mind.

Jiang Yun then pushed Fu Xuanyu out of the palace and returned to Chong'an Palace.

The next morning, Jiang Yun received the official uniform of the Grand Commander sent from the palace.

This time, she entered the palace in her official uniform as Jiang Yun and personally thanked the emperor.

Fu Ming deliberately announced the imperial edict at the morning court session, and then left all the military officers in the Xuanzheng Hall to meet the emperor.

However, after the military officers entered the Xuanzheng Hall, they looked at each other with Fu Ming in confusion, and the atmosphere was solemn.

Fu Ming remained silent, and most of the military officers were trembling with fear, not daring to speak. Only a few senior officials, who held high positions, divined the emperor's intention and summoned the eunuchs to serve tea to quench everyone's thirst.

But these sounds failed to break the dull and depressing atmosphere.

Until the eunuch outside the palace loudly announced: "Your Majesty, the Grand Commander has arrived."

Fu Ming glanced at the military officers in the hall and announced loudly: "Advance the Grand Commander!"

Led by a young eunuch, Jiang Yun entered the hall and came before Fu Ming. She lifted her official robe, stood tall, and knelt with dignity, saying, "Your Majesty, I, Jiang Yun, pay my respects to you. Long live your Majesty!"

Fu Ming's face was filled with joy: "My dear, please stand up quickly!"
