After washing and changing clothes, Jiang Wumei started to have lunch.

Qingzhi dismissed the palace maids and served Jiang Wumei lunch alone, whispering the news she had just heard to her.

"Your Majesty, I heard that the Emperor issued an edict in the court today to make you the Queen.

The date for the Empress's coronation ceremony has been set, and the Ministry of Rites is currently accelerating preparations for the ceremony."

Jiang Wumei raised her eyebrows:

"is it?

How did the Minister react?"

Qingzhi hesitated:

“Some senior officials objected strongly and were severely reprimanded by the Emperor.

Furthermore, Lord Jiang passionately criticized a minister who spoke in your capacity, and no one in the court dares to criticize you now."

Qingzhi spoke tactfully, the actual situation was much more serious than she had just said.

Upon hearing that the emperor wanted to make the imperial concubine the empress, the ministers who had long been dissatisfied with the emperor's vacant harem immediately jumped out and loudly opposed it.

First, she said that the emperor could not favor only one person, and had to expand the harem to expand the family of the Great Sage. Seeing that Xiao Tong was unmoved, she even said that she was a foxy woman who was trying to seduce the emperor.

Xiao Tong was furious on the spot and drew his sword and stepped down from the throne.

If it weren't for a few old ministers who fought desperately to stop him, Xiao Tong would have chopped off this man's head on the spot.

Looking at the 1.5-meter-long sword in Xiao Tong's hand, everyone in the court felt insecure. Jiang Yuanzhou seized the opportunity and quoted a story about the deep love between the emperor and the empress a hundred years ago to refute the minister's words that he was seducing the emperor.

After asking five questions in a row, Jiang Yuanzhou's face was as dark as ink and every word he said was like pearls, which made the ministers who held opposing opinions in the court blush and speechless. Then he turned around and knelt down to Xiao Tong, asking the emperor to punish him for his disrespect in front of the emperor.

How could Xiao Tong punish Jiang Yuanzhou? He wished Jiang Yuanzhou would scold these useless old men to death.

Holding the sword, he personally helped the man up. In front of all the civil and military officials in the court, Xiao Tong patted Jiang Yuanzhou on the shoulder, saying that he was innocent and told him not to worry.

Seeing this scene, these shrewd ministers in the court had nothing to understand.

At present, the Great Sage has unified military power, the people support him, and the imperial power is firmly in the hands of the emperor. There is no need to worry about the imbalance in the court or the instability of the ministers.

Therefore, Xiao Tong did not have to worry about the ministers' opinions at all.

Today’s queen’s coronation.

Xiao Tong was only informing, not discussing. Regardless of whether the court officials could accept it or not, it would not change his decision to make Jiang Wumei the queen.

Realizing this, the court officials stopped making a fuss, and several old officials who had just been scolded by Jiang Yuanzhou also blushed and remained silent.

Some ministers wanted to propose a selection of concubines after the coronation ceremony, but were stopped dead in their tracks by Xiao Tong's cold gaze. They were sweating profusely and dared not say another word.

After hearing Qingzhi's words, Jiang Wumei smiled and said calmly:

"Qingzhi, do you really think I'm easy to fool?"

Qingzhi's expression changed slightly, and he knelt down quickly:

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I didn't mean to deceive you. I just felt that those people were not in their right minds and what they said was unpleasant to hear. I didn't want to say it out loud and pollute your ears."

Qingzhi touched the ground with his head, his face showing panic that didn't seem fake. Jiang Wumei sighed, helped him up personally, and said with a smile:

"I'm not a Rakshasa, why are you so scared?

I don’t mean to blame you, I just don’t want you to report good news but not bad news.

I am not a delicate beauty who cannot withstand a blow. No matter how those ministers of the previous dynasty argue and slander me, it will not affect me.

You don’t need to worry.”

Qingzhi spent a lot of time and effort with her during the years she was away from home. The two of them had different feelings for each other. After Jiang Wumei didn't want to return to the palace, Qingzhi became an ordinary palace maid who stuck to the rules.

Jiang Wumei is different towards Qingzhi.

Jiang Wumei also planned to wait until things settled down, then find a good family for Qingzhi and prepare a generous dowry for her to get married.

The deep palace is lonely. How could she bear to let Qingzhi stay with her in the deep palace and be lonely for the rest of her life?

Qingzhi stood up with red eyes, nodded, and continued to serve Jiang Wumei her meal.

After lunch, Jiang Wumei went to the next bedroom to check on the child.

An'er came to Fengwu Palace in the morning. Jiang Wumei was still asleep. After playing in Fengwu Palace for a while, he returned to the palace to have lunch and rest.

When Jiang Wumei left, An'er had already fallen asleep while being served by palace maids and eunuchs.

After seeing the child and returning to the palace, Jiang Wumei thought about the time of the queen coronation ceremony, and wrote a letter directly, arranging Qingzhi to send Qilin Guard to Tianqi.

After nearly a month of twists and turns, this letter finally reached Xu Junjun.

After returning to Tianqi, Xu Junjun looked forward to Jiang Wumei's letter all day long. The night she received the letter, she couldn't wait to announce to Jun Xiaochen that she would return to the Great Sage Capital with a gift.

Jun Xiaochen didn't say anything. His amber eyes swept over the two thin pieces of letter paper in her hands, with a hint of coldness.

"Leaving tomorrow?

Didn’t the letter say that the queen coronation ceremony would be held in March?

What are you doing at the Great Sage Temple so early in the morning?"

Jun Xiaochen was very unhappy. Jun'er cared too much about others, which had far exceeded his bottom line.

Due to the man's growing possessiveness, Jun Xiaochen was very dissatisfied when Xu Junjun went out to treat the wives of officials in the imperial capital.

It is unbearable to feel that the couple’s alone time is deprived by these irrelevant people.

Seeing that Xu Junjun had finally had some free time these past two days and they could go to bed early, news came that the Great Sage's imperial concubine had been crowned queen.

As for Xu Junjun, the Princess Yuhe, who was getting married to the Great Sage, she had every reason to return the favor and congratulate the Great Sage, which made Jun Xiaochen feel even worse.

Xu Junjun didn't notice Jun Xiaochen's displeasure at this moment. With her crescent eyes curved, she happily read the letter back and forth two or three times, and said happily:

"Of course I have to go back early. If I go one day earlier, I can spend one more day with Niao Niao.

Now, the time I spend with Niao Niao is very precious, and I must cherish every minute and every second."

This tone, which was almost a confession, made Jun Xiaochen's face even more uglier. He felt an urge in his heart to stop Xu Junjun and not let her step out of the Tianqi Imperial Capital.

As soon as this terrifying thought arose, Jun Xiaochen suppressed it with a cold face.

He had no doubt that if he really did that, Jun'er would probably escape over the wall in the middle of the night and never come back.

He will never be the first in Jun'er's heart.

Realizing this, Jun Xiaochen became completely unhappy.

His handsome face, which was always calm and self-possessed, was now filled with a chill that penetrated the heart.

Xu Junjun raised the letter above her head, read it twice curiously, and even started humming a song with joy.

As Xu Junjun was humming, she didn't hear the man's voice. When she turned around, she saw that Jun Xiaochen was shrouded in a low pressure of impending storm, and his face was full of words, "I am not happy!"

Xu Junjun has a headache.

She really wanted to go back to the present day, climb onto Hiroko, and use the loudspeaker to ask the sisters:

What should I do if my husband is too jealous?

Any quick tricks to resolve this issue?

If this continues, her handsome husband will become a jealous person before he even gets old.
