Seeing His Majesty's complexion fluctuating, Shen Muxue tentatively suggested, "If we bring Prince Xian'an to the palace so that the Queen Mother can see him in person, it might help her recover."

The emperor suddenly stood up from his seat and said angrily, "If it weren't for him, the Queen Mother's illness wouldn't be so serious. I order him not to go out for the time being, and he can only be released after the Queen Mother recovers."

This sudden anger frightened Shen Muxue so much that she almost fell down. Fortunately, Nanny Yang helped her in time.

Seeing Shen Muxue's frightened look, the emperor realized that his emotions were out of control, and hurried forward to ask if she was injured.

Faced with such a scene, Shen Muxue just shook her head to show that she was fine, but her face showed a bit of innocence and fear, which made the emperor feel quite unbearable.

It is really annoying that such trouble arises just when the two are newly married and living a sweet life.

Then he hugged the person in his arms tightly and left Yixiang Palace.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has not yet woken up..."

"There are imperial doctors to take care of him."

After returning to the bedroom, the emperor was still unwilling to let Shen Muxue go, and even had to wait by her side personally when she was changing clothes.

"Why are you staring at me like that?"

Faced with the question, His Majesty smiled and replied, "Because the Queen is so beautiful."

It seemed that His Majesty had no intention of revealing more of his feelings, so Shen Muxue had no choice but to give up and snuggled into the warm embrace and pretended to sleep.

"The urgent message sent to the border should have reached General Shen, right?"

After receiving a positive answer, the woman who was originally lazily relying on him suddenly became energetic and climbed directly onto her husband's neck and gave him a passionate kiss.

After a moment of stunned silence, the man finally came to his senses and gently pushed the person away: "This is not the right time..."

She was just expressing intimacy, but she didn't expect her husband to think it was the wrong thing...

However, after this incident, the minor friction between the two finally came to an end.

The next morning, after learning that his son's activities were restricted, his weak body seemed to have improved rapidly.

Nanny Hu, concerned for the Empress Dowager's well-being, offered counsel, "This is a decision made out of filial piety by His Majesty. If you don't cherish this gesture, wouldn't you be betraying his kindness? Furthermore, at this stage, it might be a better option for Prince An to remain within the palace and reflect on his actions."

After hearing this, the Queen Mother finally calmed down and thought about the whole incident.

On the other side, Shen Muxue was still waiting for the Queen Mother to release Prince Xian'an, but when she heard that he was persuaded by Madam Hu, she couldn't help feeling disappointed.

The bigger the dispute between the Emperor and the Empress Dowager, the better it is for Shen Muxue.

Only in this way, when the emperor can no longer suppress his anger one day, she will be able to take action.

Now, the Queen Mother seems to have calmed down, and Prince Xian'an is reflecting on himself behind closed doors in his mansion and no longer causing trouble.

In this case, how will her plan proceed?

The whole world seemed to become quiet all of a sudden. The Queen Mother was reciting Buddhist scriptures in Yixiang Palace, while Prince Xian'an stayed in his own residence thinking about his mistakes.

There had been no progress in the case that Wang submitted to the Dali Temple. Unexpectedly, after the imperial concubine passed away, the investigation into the case progressed rapidly.

When flipping through the detailed case file at hand, Shen Muxue found that the records in it were extremely detailed.

How the Xie family members managed to get Shen Yuwei into the palace.

What follows is how the imperial concubine harms people, and every detail is described as if it were a re-enactment of the scene.

Whether the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple are good at solving cases is not the point, but their ability to act according to the wind direction is fully demonstrated.

After losing the emperor's protection, the Xie family's power quickly collapsed, and those who had been oppressed by them in the past came to complain.

In order to make the ceremony of the new queen more glorious, the court accelerated the handling of the relevant lawsuits of the Xie family and defined the nature and sentencing of each clause one by one.

The final result of the accumulation is the destruction of the family.

The entire clan was executed.

During this period, when Shen Muxue had nothing to do, she relied on Nanny Yang to get information about the Xie family's situation to pass the time.

It is truly heartbreaking to watch others rise to prominence and then suddenly fall.

Just as she was trying on the dress she would soon wear as queen, the words "once glorious, but ultimately dust" suddenly came to her mind.

Indeed, for the Xie family, the past ten years have been like a dream!

"Miss, you look so beautiful in this dress." Siyun praised.

"How can you say that? Even if the Queen's piece isn't a masterpiece, it's still a rare and excellent piece."

Nanny Yang interjected.

At this time, the Emperor walked into the room, gently held Shen Muxue's waist and said, "When I designed the Empress's Phoenix Coronet, I envisioned twelve East China Sea pearls. I felt it was too heavy, so I changed it to three. I wonder if Xue'er will complain about this?"

Shen Muxue smiled and replied, "Your Majesty, I don't even want to hold this enthronement ceremony, so why should I care about a few pearl decorations?"

"Even though you don't care about these details, as a monarch I hope you have the most perfect attire."

After hearing these gentle words, although I tried to pretend that I was deeply moved, no tears came out.

Suddenly, the emperor took her hand and walked out.

Three handsome men stood in the main hall.

Upon seeing the dragon carriage arrive, he immediately knelt and saluted: "Your humble servant greets the Emperor and His Majesty!"

Looking at the scene in front of her, Shen Muxue was stunned for a long time until tears silently rolled down her cheeks: it turned out that her long-separated family members had returned to their homeland.

I thought only my father would return.

The reunion was so emotional that the crying became uncontrollable.

Even though they were separated for only a few years, in her heart it felt as if they were separated by a thousand years.

"Don't be sad. I allowed you to be reunited specifically to make you happy. Dry your tears now."

The three men felt relieved when they heard the emperor's gentle and comforting words.

It is obvious that my daughter is living a happy and carefree life now.

After allowing enough time for private communication, the figure in the dragon robe left.

After adjusting their mood a little, they sat down and recounted in detail what they had experienced over the past few years, and the topic naturally turned to Shen Yuwei.

"Why is Sister Wei willing to become Xie Jing's concubine?"

The general was very confused and puzzled by this situation.

Shen came from a prominent family and really didn't understand why her mother would let her daughter enter into such an incompatible marriage.

"What does mother think about this?"

Shen Muxue was very curious about how Wang would fabricate a lie. Sure enough, General Shen slammed the table after hearing it and said angrily, "Your mother claimed that she was accidentally bumped into at the Xie Mansion. In order to protect your reputation, she had no choice but to enter the Xie Mansion."

"what?"

Due to Shen Yuwei's death, Shen Muxue originally planned to give Wang a chance to admit her mistake, but she did not expect that this person would be so vicious.

She sighed and slowly said, "In order to please the Imperial Concubine and have my sister marry Prince Xian'an, my mother actually intended to send me to Xie Jing. That day at Xie's house, I sensed something was amiss and quietly left the room. Unexpectedly, my sister later appeared in that room and was encountered by a drunken Xie Jing, which ultimately led to her losing her virginity."

If Wang had not deliberately framed me, my sister would not have suffered such a serious injury.
