The delicate little cabbage was pushed by the old emperor

"Doesn't the Princess often offer suggestions to the Emperor that will benefit his reputation? She even advises him to prioritize business development."

Father Shen listened as his daughter suddenly started discussing state affairs with the emperor, and for a moment he didn't know whether to speak up to stop her.

Although the Empress, as the mother of a country, could participate in some state affairs, he was worried that the two had just been married and this would arouse the suspicion of Emperor Yong'an.

However, Emperor Yong'an showed no dissatisfaction at all. Instead, he asked in confusion, "It is true, but how did Yan'er know about it?"

The eldest princess did give him some suggestions, and although they were beneficial to the people, she was ultimately the biggest beneficiary.

The eldest princess's husband, Li Qingcheng, has businesses all over the country. He is rich enough to rival a country and is a smooth and cunning person.

Most of the princess's advice was for this person, and she often held banquets, wasn't it to build up her personal connections and pave the way for herself?

"I also heard about it from Sister Le Yin, and I also heard some of it from the people."

"Because of some of the princess's good deeds, she became famous."

"In the hearts of the people, she is a great benefactor and a living bodhisattva. Not only is she of noble status, but she is also extremely intelligent."

"And the current prosperity of our Dazhao Kingdom's business is all thanks to the many suggestions of this eldest princess."

"What nonsense!" Father Shen shouted.

"Even if the eldest princess is extremely intelligent, how can she make our business flourish just by talking?"

The more he listened, the more he felt something was wrong. Why hadn't he paid attention to the eldest princess before? It seemed like he had some other thoughts that he shouldn't have had.

"Your Majesty, don't you think that Her Royal Highness the Princess seems to be deliberately creating her own persona?"

Emperor Yong'an nodded. How could a legitimate princess of the royal family have a truly compassionate heart?

Just because she is a princess, no one pays attention to her and watches all her actions.

Now that she thinks about it, the prince consort she chose at the beginning might have had some unknown intentions.

"Your Majesty, since the eldest princess is trying so hard to win over the people, the purpose behind this must be complicated. You must be on guard..." Father Shen said earnestly.

"Besides, she's now involved with the Ye family. This is simply Sima Zhao's intention, and everyone knows it."

Bao Shun nodded vigorously. He knew that if the matter was so serious, he should have told the emperor without delay...

Shen Leyan said, "In that case, I think as long as we keep a close eye on the Ye family and the Princess's residence, we should be able to find my brother and Sister Yueyin."

Emperor Yong'an nodded slightly, "Yan'er is right."

"Baoshun, immediately send someone to secretly monitor the Ye family and the Princess's residence, and report any signs of trouble immediately."

Bao Shun responded and left.

Father Shen looked at the dark night sky and sighed.

"It's late at night and the dew is heavy. Your Majesty and Empress, please return to the palace first."

Shen Leyan was about to open her mouth to refuse, but her father interrupted her and continued, "I know you are worried about Le Bai and can't let go."

"It's just that you're waiting for news if you stay here, and it's the same if you go back and wait. Besides, you're the queen now, so how can you just leave the palace and stay at home?"

"But...I am also worried about you..."

"Yan'er, mother is fine."

"Your father is right! You should follow the emperor back to the palace."

Shen Leyan knew that she couldn't be willful. It was inappropriate for her to come back today. If she stayed at home at night and didn't return to the palace, it would cause great trouble for Emperor Yong'an.

Besides, today is the last day of the three-day holiday, and Emperor Yong'an has to get up early to attend the morning court tomorrow.

No matter what, she can no longer be willful...

Shen Leyan nodded worriedly, "Daddy and Mommy, I understand."

"Don't worry, I will find a way to find my brother and sister Yueyin as soon as possible."

"You must take good care of yourselves and don't be too anxious and hurt yourself." Shen Leyan said worriedly.

The two of them agreed immediately and also reminded Shen Leyan to be careful in the palace and take good care of herself.

Before leaving, Emperor Yong'an also assured the two elders that he would take good care of Shen Leyan and would not stand idly by about Shen Lebai's affairs.

We will definitely find out the truth as soon as possible, find the two people, and give them an explanation.

"Father and mother-in-law, don't worry too much. Even if they were really captured by the Ye family or the eldest princess, it was only to threaten us."

"At least their lives are not in danger now. Our most important thing now is to maintain our position."

Father Shen was aware of the interests involved, so he bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I thank you!"

Emperor Yong'an immediately reached out and helped him up, "Father-in-law, there's no need for this."

On the way back, Emperor Yong'an held Shen Leyan in his arms, patting her shoulders gently to comfort her silently.

Shen Leyan was very greedy at this moment, nestling in his arms, like a child who had done something wrong, "Your Majesty, was I too willful today..."

"In my opinion, Yan'er has never been willful, so how can she be said to be too willful?"

"Your brother and you grew up together and have a deep relationship. Now that he's had an accident, it's only natural that you're worried about him."

"Besides, even though Yan'er was anxious, she was able to remain rational and search for key clues, which is already remarkable."

"Yan'er did a great job!"

Shen Leyan was not very happy after receiving the affirmation and praise from Emperor Yong'an. Instead, she felt even more guilty and distressed towards him.

It was already midnight when they returned to the palace, and he had to get up and attend the morning court after only a few hours of rest.

But he never complained about these things. Instead, he always considered her and helped her deal with her family affairs.

Emperor Yong'an endured everything silently, and she seemed to feel that she had considered him too little...

After they lay down on their bridal bed, Shen Leyan hugged Emperor Yong'an's waist tightly with both hands and said in a muffled voice, "Your Majesty, are you tired?"

"Ok?"

"Yan'er is asking me if I'm tired today?"

"Why bother with such a small matter?" To Emperor Yong'an, this matter seemed insignificant.

Originally, he felt as if he had done nothing but give a few orders.

It wasn't like he was running around himself, and he originally wanted to go and see it in person.

But Shen Leyan wanted to follow him, and he was worried that Shen Leyan would be hurt, so he decisively gave up this idea.

She is his biggest weakness...

"I'm not just talking about today..."

Emperor Yong'an listened to the emotions in her words and seemed to slowly understand the meaning of her words.

"Fool, what are you thinking about?"

Emperor Yong'an held her little face in his palms, caring for her as carefully as if she were a treasure.

He felt that perhaps only by doing something could he divert her emotions...
