Ever since the Imperial Master's theory of magnetic field, Jun Lingyuan has been frequently visiting Yueli Palace, and summoning Feng Qingyue has become a common occurrence.

That day, Jun Lingyuan strode into Yueli Palace. Feng Qingyue was admiring herself in the mirror, thinking, "This lady's peerless beauty cannot be dulled by the dullness of this palace." The ventriloquism was quite loud, and Jun Lingyuan heard it clearly the moment he entered. His mouth twitched, and he secretly criticized, "This woman is really narcissistic."

Once, Jun Lingyuan summoned Feng Qingyue to the imperial study. Seeing the piles of memorials, Feng Qingyue couldn't help but complain, "This emperor's job is truly inhuman. Facing these shabby books every day will turn your brain into a lump of wood." Jun Lingyuan glared at this and was about to explode when he saw Feng Qingyue's eyes rolling around, as if she were thinking of some wicked idea. She looked like a mischievous little fox, and Jun Lingyuan couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Another time, Jun Lingyuan took Feng Qingyue to a palace banquet. Feng Qingyue looked at the table full of delicacies, her heart overflowing with joy, but she had to keep a low profile. Jun Lingyuan could hear her shouting in her mind, "Wow, so many delicious foods! I'm going to eat them to my heart's content, and forget about the emperor." Jun Lingyuan almost spit out the wine he had just taken. He coughed twice, pretending to be calm, but in his heart he was thinking, "Why does this woman only think about eating?"

Seeing Jun Lingyuan and Feng Qingyue like this, the other concubines in the harem were so jealous that their eyes turned red, like a group of red-eyed rabbits. Concubine Su and Concubine Lin got together and plotted to frame Feng Qingyue. Concubine Su said, "Feng Qingyue must have drugged His Majesty, otherwise why would His Majesty keep running to her?" Concubine Lin agreed, "Yes, we have to find a way to embarrass her." So, they found a sorcerer who made an itching powder and planned to secretly sprinkle it on Feng Qingyue, making her scratch herself in front of Jun Lingyuan like a ridiculous clown.

Feng Qingyue, unaware of the impending danger, continued to amuse herself in Yueli Palace, occasionally muttering to her pet, "Do you think the Emperor has too much free time to keep coming to me? Could it be that he wants to become my disciple and emulate my carefree and carefree nature?" The pet meowed, as if in response, and Feng Qingyue nodded gravely.

Jun Lingyuan, on the other hand, was both infuriated and amused by Feng Qingyue's ventriloquism. Once, he overheard Feng Qingyue muttering, "The emperor's dragon robe may look majestic, but it must be uncomfortable to wear. It's like wrapping yourself in a thick quilt. It's so hot in the summer that you'll die." Jun Lingyuan wanted to retort, "It's made of top-quality silk. How can it be uncomfortable?" But as the words reached his lips, he felt that arguing with her was foolish, so he shook his head helplessly.

That day, Jun Lingyuan arrived at Yueli Palace again. Feng Qingyue was lying in the courtyard, basking in the sun, her eyes half closed, thinking to herself, "It doesn't matter whether the Emperor comes or not. I'll just enjoy this beautiful sunbath first." Jun Lingyuan stood beside her and deliberately coughed. Feng Qingyue was startled. Opening her eyes and seeing Jun Lingyuan, she muttered, "Emperor, how did you suddenly appear like a ghost?" Jun Lingyuan was at a loss for words. He decided to discipline this eccentric woman. But he couldn't let Feng Qingyue know he could hear her.

That day, Jun Lingyuan arrived at Feng Qingyue's bedroom. Feng Qingyue was boredly gazing at the flowers and plants outside the window, thinking to herself, "Life in the ancient times was so boring. Every day I either stayed in this bedroom or attended those boring palace gatherings. And I had to be constantly wary of those scheming concubines. The same goes for Emperor Jun Lingyuan. He always had this icy face, which really made me want to complain."

When Jun Lingyuan heard her inner voice, his expression changed slightly, then returned to normal. He deliberately put on a stern face and said, "Feng Qingyue, I came here today because I saw that you seemed to have many dissatisfactions with me and this palace life."

Feng Qingyue was startled and quickly bowed respectfully, "Your Majesty, I dare not. I am ignorant. Please forgive me." In her heart, she was thinking, "I was just thinking about it. Why does he seem to know it? Am I being too obvious?"

Jun Lingyuan laughed inwardly, but his face remained serious. "I see you've been too idle in this palace. Perhaps you feel my palace can't accommodate a giant like you?"

Feng Qingyue's heart skipped a beat, and she thought, "It's over, it's over. Why is the Emperor targeting me like this today?" She said innocently, "Your Majesty, I have absolutely no such intention. I'm living very well in the palace. Your Majesty's palace is naturally excellent."

Jun Lingyuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? Excellent? Then why do I feel like you're like a trapped bird every day, your mind completely unconcerned with the affairs of the palace?"

Feng Qingyue complained in her heart, "Isn't it just that life in the ancient palace is too oppressive? How can it compare to the freedom I enjoy in modern times?" But she said, "Your Majesty, I have just been feeling a little unwell and not in good spirits recently. It's not that I don't care about the affairs of the palace."

Jun Lingyuan snorted, thinking to himself, "This little girl is still stubborn. Let me scare her again." So he continued, "I heard that you have been complaining about many of my policies in this palace. Is this true?"

Feng Qingyue was horrified, thinking to herself, "How could my thoughts be discovered? Impossible." She hurriedly defended herself, "Your Majesty, I'm innocent. Your Majesty's policies are all for the good of our country. How could I possibly complain?" But in her heart, she was screaming, "I just secretly thought that some of the policies didn't align with modern ideals. Is that a crime?"

Seeing her nervous expression, Jun Lingyuan felt that he had achieved his goal of scaring her, so he said, "Never mind. I'll trust you for now. But you must always be vigilant and don't let me find out that you're doing anything inappropriate again."

Feng Qingyue breathed a sigh of relief and bowed, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will definitely remember your teachings." But in her heart, she was thinking, "This emperor is really incomprehensible. Fortunately, I have fooled him again this time."

A few days later, while Jun Lingyuan was attending to government affairs, he suddenly remembered that the Qiqiao Festival was just a few days away. He also thought of Feng Qingyue's bored look in the palace, and suddenly he wanted to take her out for fun. He himself found it a little strange that he cared so much about this woman who always complained about him in his heart.

Jun Lingyuan came to Feng Qingyue's bedroom again and saw Feng Qingyue sitting on the couch in a daze. He said, "Feng Qingyue, the Qiqiao Festival is coming in a few days. I will take you out of the palace for a tour."

Feng Qingyue was startled. She hadn't expected Jun Lingyuan to suggest something like this. She thought, "I'm just waiting for the right time to travel back. I haven't seen the outside of the ancient world yet, so it would be nice to go out and take a look." So, she readily agreed, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I'd be happy to go out with you."

Jun Lingyuan was a little surprised to see her agree so readily, but he was also very happy. He said, "Then you should prepare well in the next few days."

Feng Qingyue bowed and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Jun Lingyuan looked at her and suddenly said, "I've been so good to you, so don't make up stories about me in your mind anymore."

Feng Qingyue panicked, thinking, "Why is he bringing this up again? Could he really know what I'm thinking?" She quickly said, "Your Majesty, I dare not."

Jun Lingyuan raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and said in his heart: "Little girl, let's see if you dare to complain about me again."

Feng Qingyue secretly glanced at Jun Lingyuan and complained in her heart: "Hmph, when I go back, I won't have to be afraid of you."
