Reborn Empress: The World Originally Belonged to Her

As soon as the Minister of War arrived, all the officials turned their attention to him, inquiring about his health.

"Thank you for your concern, officials. I am much better now."

Then the Prime Minister also arrived. When Prime Minister Xu saw the Minister of War, he walked directly up to him and looked him up and down.

Looking into the Prime Minister's eyes, the Minister of War felt a slight sense of disgust for a moment.

For some reason, the Minister of War felt a little worried as the prime minister stared at him.

For some reason, the Minister of War had a feeling that the Prime Minister had something to say, but he didn't know what it was.

More importantly, the Minister of War did not want to be associated with the Prime Minister.

At this moment, Qin Yanling had already arrived at the imperial court. Jiang Yu stood in front of Qin Yanling and shouted loudly, "If you have something to report, speak up; otherwise, the court is adjourned."

Unexpectedly, Prime Minister Xu stepped forward and bowed respectfully.

"Your Majesty, according to custom, today is not the day they are to enter the palace, so why haven't they come here?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Yanling told them, "That's true, but I told them to come back tonight. They have already entered the palace, and I have arranged for them to stay in a side hall."

For a moment, they couldn't quite figure out Qin Yanling's thoughts, nor did they know the purpose behind Qin Yanling's actions.

When Xu Jiu entered the palace and saw the surrounding scenery, although the palace was very prosperous, Xu Jiu did not yearn for it at all. The red walls and green tiles, and the gates were so high.

If someone wanted to walk out of these palace walls, wouldn't they have to...?

Meanwhile, Qin Yu and Mo Yun had already learned of this matter. Qin Yu personally entered the palace without informing Qin Yanling.

Upon learning of this news, Qin Yanling went directly to find Qin Yu.

"Why was there no announcement that my elder sister has entered the palace?"

Upon hearing Qin Yanling's words, Qin Yu merely raised her head and glanced at him.

"I was just worried that the Emperor would be too busy. After all, His Majesty has some matters to attend to today, doesn't he?"

"Though you say so, Your Highness, this is just..."

"What, am I not allowed to enter the palace?"

Qin Yanling was at a loss for words for a moment, then took a deep breath and said everything she had to say.

Unexpectedly, Qin Yanling still considered the relationship between the two of them to be that of ruler and subject. Even if they were not ruler and subject, they still had to observe proper etiquette.

That's it.

"I entered the palace without prior notice, which is my fault. I beg Your Majesty to punish me."

Qin Yu suddenly knelt down on the ground. Qin Yanling quickly helped her up, as he couldn't bear to see her kneel like that.

"Your Majesty, that's not what I meant."

At this moment, Qin Yanling was rather flustered. For some reason, she felt that the distance between the two of them had grown considerably.

Since that poisoning incident, Qin Yanling had become estranged from people, and now this incident has caused them to drift apart again. How could Qin Yanling not feel helpless?

Qin Yanling walked up to Qin Yu.

"If that's the case, then I'll grant my elder sister a special privilege: from now on, she won't need to announce her arrival to me when entering the palace. What do you think, elder sister?"

Qin Yu did not speak, but returned to the princess's residence under the pretext that she was not feeling well.

This matter has reached the ears of Prime Minister Xu. Upon learning this, Prime Minister Xu was surprised that Qin Yanling and Qin Yu had actually had a conflict.

They are siblings, and now they've had this conflict...

More importantly, today is also the day to receive envoys from neighboring countries. If the envoys from neighboring countries find out about this, won't they laugh their heads off?

The king was deeply distressed; he had never imagined things would turn out this way.

He turned to look at Eunuch Jiang. "Do you think I made a mistake?"

"Your Majesty, what are you saying? How could Your Majesty be wrong? Your Majesty is the supreme ruler, and everyone in the world must bow to you. Moreover, Your Highness should have informed Your Majesty before entering the palace, but Your Highness did not."

After careful consideration, Qin Yanling realized that what Eunuch Jiang said made a lot of sense.

Finally, Qin Yanling arrived at the place where General Su was. When General Su saw him, he was a little surprised for a moment. After all, the emperor would never come here under normal circumstances, but he did not expect the emperor to come now.

"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! I was unaware of Your Majesty's presence. Is there anything I can do for you?"

Qin Yanling then informed General Su. "I simply wanted to see how you would train these soldiers."

Finally, Qin Yanling asked General Su how he had been recruiting soldiers recently.

General Su told Qin Yanling everything in detail, and Qin Yanling nodded slightly.

For some reason, General Su always felt that Qin Yanling's true intentions were not what they seemed.

Afterwards, Qin Yanling inquired about General Su's attitude towards Qin Yu. General Su naturally told Qin Yanling all his thoughts, which made Qin Yanling extremely unhappy.

"If what you're saying is true, General, does that mean you only have the princess in your heart and not me?"

"Your Majesty is overthinking it. I absolutely did not mean that. I admire the princess. After all, she is a woman, yet she was able to defeat me."

There are many women in this world, but none are like Qin Yu.

Qin Yanling was determined to obtain the power he desired as quickly as possible, believing that once he had power, he could firmly consolidate the power of the country.

He believed that one day he would be able to make these people obey his orders.

After saying a few more words, Qin Yanling left. Once Qin Yanling was gone, General Su breathed a sigh of relief, and the deputy general beside him walked up to him.

"I have a feeling that His Majesty is testing the general's mind to see who he is on the side of."

"You guessed right, His Majesty did indeed come here to test us."

They were all stunned in that instant, never expecting that His Majesty would actually ask General Su who he was with.

"It seems that the military power of the National Protection Army is in the hands of Her Highness the Princess. If that's the case, shouldn't we be obeying Her Highness the Princess?"
