Reborn Empress: The World Originally Belonged to Her

Inside the palace.

Qin Yanling naturally already knew about these things. Qin Yanling never expected that Shangguan Mufeng would actually get married. It really shocked Qin Yanling. Before this, Qin Yanling originally thought that the person Shangguan Mufeng liked was one of the concubines in his harem. But now he found that Shangguan Mufeng didn't seem to like her.

Xu must be quite saddened to learn of these things, because Xu has always loved Shangguan Mufeng, but there was nothing she could do, which is why she became the emperor's concubine.

At this moment, Xu couldn't help but come outside and look up at the sky. Her maid saw Xu looking at the sky and felt that her mistress seemed to have something on her mind, so she couldn't help but ask her a question.

"There's nothing you don't need to think about right now. I'm just recalling some things from a long time ago. I want to ask you, do you have someone you like? If so, then I..."

Why would she suddenly ask him if he had someone he liked? Of course, every palace maid has someone she likes, but she also understands that it's impossible for them to be together.

She is a royal bodyguard, while he is just a lowly palace maid. How could he possibly be worthy of her? Besides, her future is limitless, isn't it?

She then turned her attention to a palace maid and told her that she would grant her request if the maid spoke up.

"Your Highness, you seem a little different today. Is something wrong? If so, why don't you tell me, and I'll tell you the story."

"I didn't do anything special, so don't overthink it. I just feel that time is passing by a bit too quickly."

After much speculation, they finally learned something. If their guesses were correct, before Xu entered the palace, he seemed to have a close relationship with Shangguan Mufeng in the court.

Now, it seems that Shangguan Mufeng's interest in getting married and having children is perhaps overshadowed by this matter.

But is Xu now Qin Yanling's concubine? Every word and action of hers is being monitored.

"Your Majesty, there is something I wish to tell you, and it concerns someone I love."

Then Xu heard what the maid said and realized that everything the palace maid said was true and made sense. She had indeed created her own problems, and if she hadn't, she wouldn't be in such a predicament now.

"Some things are just things of the past. Your Majesty doesn't need to be sad here. I only hope that Your Majesty can understand this and that Your Majesty can be happy."

Yes, there's nothing she and Shangguan Mufeng can do anymore. Since that's the case, why not just let Shangguan Mufeng go and let him be with someone better?

At this time, Qin Yanling had naturally arrived at Xu's location. However, when Qin Yanling saw Xu, he looked somewhat sullen and had some guesses in his mind, but he did not want to expose Xu.

To be honest, he had indeed grown fond of the woman in front of him during their time together, even though he might not have liked her before.

It was only out of a sense of responsibility, but now he truly loves her. After all, in the end, this place is no longer empty, but has a concubine who has always been with him.

"By the way, I recently acquired some fine silks and satins. Why don't I just give them to you as a gift? It would be quite nice to have these fine silks and satins made into new clothes for you."

He then instructed the eunuchs around him to fetch these fine silks and satins, all of which were of very high quality and felt extremely smooth to the touch.

More importantly, the feel of these silks and satins was exactly the same as that of the country he lived in.

She then took the silks and satins and examined them carefully, confirming that these scattered pieces of silk were indeed from her country.

The two spent some time together there, enjoying a tender moment. In fact, during these days together, Xu felt that Qin Yanling was a very good ruler. More importantly, Qin Yanling was very considerate of him. Even when the court officials asked him how to choose a concubine, Qin Yanling still did not make a choice.

Now, Qin Yanling only wants to have her alone in the harem. What more could she possibly want?

She should have been content with such a good husband, instead of staying here sullenly thinking about the past.

In the end, he simply put all of these things out of his mind.

Cheng Qixia had also returned to the Prince Yu's mansion. After returning, she kept thinking about when Qin Yu would hold a martial arts contest to find a husband here again. If Qin Yu were to hold a martial arts contest to find a husband here, she would definitely risk her life to get that embroidered ball.

Qin Yu couldn't help but sneeze, as if he sensed someone talking about him.

Qin Yu felt a little confused, having no idea what was going on.

Qin Yu suddenly remembered something very important, which concerned Jiangnan. Since the Prime Minister could not go to Jiangnan now, they could only send another group of people.

Qin Yu initially wanted Shangguan Mufeng to go to Jiangnan, but since Shangguan Mufeng was now getting married and having children, how could she disturb such a good thing?

At that moment, Qin Yu had an idea: to go to Jiangnan himself. Subsequently, Qin Yu arrived at the palace.

"I have something I want to tell you. You might as well come with me to the palace."

Having heard what Qin Yu said, they must have all followed him to the palace.

Qin Yanling was reviewing memorials in the imperial study when he suddenly heard of Qin Yu's arrival. He must have been a little surprised at that moment, not expecting that Qin Yu had already come.

At this moment, Qin Yanling put down all the memorials in his hands.

"How come my elder sister has time to come here?"

"I've come here because I wanted to ask you some questions. I'm particularly interested in knowing if you have anyone in mind for this next step?"

Qin Yanling was a little confused at that moment, and had no idea who Qin Yu was referring to.
