Reborn Empress: The World Originally Belonged to Her

"By the way, elder sister, there's something I wanted to ask you. Are you really going to Jiangnan? The round trip will take a month. Are you sure you want to go? If you do go, there's a high chance you'll encounter some..."

Qin Yanling was somewhat worried about Qin Yu. In fact, he had always hoped that Qin Yu could live and did not want Qin Yu to do anything. After all, Qin Yu was the only family he had in this world, wasn't he?

Upon hearing Qin Yanling's words, Qin Yu couldn't help but curl a wicked smile into her lips. "What, does my younger brother worry about my safety? Shouldn't he want something to happen to me on this road? If that's the case..."

"Your Majesty, what are you saying? I never thought of that. I hoped that something might happen to Your Majesty. I hope that Your Majesty will be healthy."

For some reason, Qin Yu felt disgusted by Qin Yanling's words, and besides feeling disgusted, she also felt a bit mocked.

Then Qin Yu turned her gaze to Qin Yanling. "I hope you can be a good ruler, and I also hope that everything you do will be done with a clear conscience."

"Your Majesty, you can rest assured that I will always remember what Your Majesty said."

Afterwards, Qin Yu and Qin Yanling chatted for a while, and she was about to leave when she suddenly remembered something as soon as she stepped out of the Imperial Study. She had come to the palace to see Shangguan Tian'er.

Qin Yu then went directly to visit Shangguan Tian'er.

Shangguan Tian'er was overjoyed to see Qin Yu arrive.

"I never expected that Your Highness would come to visit me here. I am really happy. Did Your Highness miss me, so you came to visit me?"

Upon hearing Shangguan Tian'er's address to her, Qin Yu immediately corrected her, indicating that she should now refer to herself as "this palace" instead of "servant," since she was now the emperor's concubine and had to understand the proper hierarchy, rather than feeling inferior to Qin Yu.

"From now on, you shall call me elder sister here. After all, you are the emperor's concubine, and the emperor is my younger brother. You should call me elder sister."

Hearing what Qin Yu said, Shangguan Tian'er felt a sweet warmth in her heart for a moment, and even more so, she felt extremely happy. She never thought that one day she could call Qin Yu "sister".

She must have felt incredibly happy.

Seeing Shangguan Tian'er laughing so happily, Qin Yu couldn't help but ask, "I'm a little puzzled by you. Why are you laughing here all of a sudden? Has something happened?"

"Actually, there's something I want to tell Her Highness the Princess: it's a very happy thing to be able to become Her Highness's sister. This is something I never dared to dream of before, after all, the difference in our status is just too great."

Upon hearing Shangguan Tian'er's words, Qin Yu couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"I never expected that you would be laughing here because of this. It really surprises me. Since you like to call me 'sister,' from now on, you can call me 'sister' whenever you see me."

As for the other concubines, Qin Yu will definitely deal with them according to their seniority. After all, Qin Yu is not familiar with them, and more importantly, Shangguan Tian'er has been by Qin Yu's side for many years.

Qin Yu is actually quite reluctant to let Shangguan Tian'er stay in the palace, as he hopes she can always stay by his side.

Then Qin Yu turned her gaze to Shangguan Tian'er. "If you ever want to return to the Princess's residence, just come back, understand? Tell His Majesty directly that you want to return to the Princess's residence. I believe His Majesty will agree to your return. If he really doesn't agree, just let me come to the palace."

Upon hearing Qin Yu's words, Shangguan Tian'er immediately felt a sense of favoritism.

"Your Highness, rest assured, this servant will definitely do a good job in the affairs of the inner palace, will definitely help Your Highness the Princess, and will also definitely speak well of Your Highness the Princess to His Majesty."

Qin Yu was actually more worried about Shangguan Tian'er's life safety.

After all, Shangguan Tian'er was someone close to her, so this matter must have been known to the ministers in the court. These ministers would probably think that Qin Yu had already placed someone by the emperor's side, which meant that she must have a rebellious intention.

“I know what my sister is worried about, but I am not afraid at all. Besides, I believe His Majesty will believe it. After all, Your Highness is his own sister, and she is an incredibly kind person in this world.”

In fact, Shangguan Tian'er really hoped that she could have an older brother or a younger brother, but unfortunately she didn't have an older brother or a younger brother.

Even the older brother she has now acknowledged is someone she doesn't know very well.

"What I want to tell you is that you can treat Shangguan Mufeng as your own brother, you know? After all, Shangguan Mufeng has always wanted a younger sister for me, so I believe he will treat you very well."

The reason why Qin Yu suddenly chose Shangguan Nantian as Shangguan Tian'er's adoptive father was simply because he trusted him.

If I didn't trust him, I certainly wouldn't have chosen Shangguan Nantian now.

That's why I chose Shangguan Nantian – because I trust him.

The important thing is that they are relatively upright people, and it is because of this that Qin Yu...

"Thank you for what you have said, Your Highness. I will remember this and will definitely communicate with them more often."

"Don't think that you are of low status or anything like that. I am your support, and Shangguan Nantian and Shangguan Mufeng are also your supporters."

In an instant, Shangguan Tian'er's eyes filled with tears. At that moment, she didn't know how to express her gratitude to Qin Yu. More importantly, Qin Yu had been so incredibly kind to her.

"If there's nothing else, I must take my leave."
