The emperor then asked, "Don't you want to drink better tea?"

Nanzhi: "I do want to, but I am a concubine, so I just drink these tea leaves, that's all."

The emperor raised his eyebrows and asked, "Really?"

Nanzhi: "Really, palace rules cannot be crossed."

The emperor didn't hear the other person's thoughts, so he asked again: "What if I give you good tea, tea that tastes much better than this?"

Nanzhi: "If the emperor really sends tea, I will give it to the queen. The queen is kind and sent me snacks, so I should return the favor."

Many concubines would say these words, but they might not mean what they said in their hearts. However, the emperor did not hear their true feelings, so he could not figure out whether she was being sincere or not.

The emperor said meaningfully: "You respect the queen. In this harem, all the women hate the queen. What about you?"

After saying this, the woman opposite looked frightened and immediately said, "I dare not, and I will not hate the queen."

The emperor didn't believe it: "Really? You should know that you were kicked out of the palace. Don't you have any resentment in your heart?"

Nanzhi: "I dare not."

"…It was His Majesty's decision to expel him from the palace. What does it have to do with the Empress?"

Hearing this, the emperor was choked up, his face looked grim and a little dazed.

He looked at the woman in front of him. She was very dull and a beautiful girl from a small family. She was far from being a stunning beauty.

This is a stupid one.

Everyone could see that he was disbanding the harem on behalf of the Queen, and the other women in the harem who had a bit of common sense understood the truth.

But this woman felt that disbanding the harem was his decision and had nothing to do with the queen.

But if you think about it carefully, it seems to be really irrelevant, the queen did not ask him to disband the harem.

The emperor could no longer tolerate the women in the harem, and wanted to be with the queen forever.

After hearing what Jiang Cainu said, the emperor felt that he was being too sentimental.

The emperor snorted coldly, "Then you hate me. I will drive you out of the palace."

Nanzhi: "I dare not."

Emperor: "Don't dare or can't?"

Nanzhi: “I dare not, and I won’t.”

The emperor listened carefully, but he didn't hear the real voice, but he didn't believe such words.

Anyone can feel resentment, any normal person can feel resentment.

But the emperor didn't hear what was in his heart, and suddenly he was not sure.

The emperor was a little confused and a little irritated.

The emperor had to provoke: "You say you don't hate me, but you don't think so in your heart."

Nanzhi: "I don't have any."

emperor:……

Are you a wooden man? Don’t you have any ideas in your mind?

  Are you distracted? Why do you have so few thoughts in your mind?

Concubines may be charming, reserved, or talented...

No matter what she looks like on the surface, she always has endless words to say and endless thoughts in her heart. But this woman's heart is like a stubborn stone, and she rarely chatters in her mind.

The emperor rubbed his eyebrows and looked a little tired, even more tired than before when he listened to the chattering of the concubines.

Perhaps it is more mentally exhausting to actively listen to other people's thoughts.

His expression flickered in the light of the lamp, and he suddenly said, "I want to make you a concubine and the head of Changchun Palace. Are you willing?"

I don't believe you can remain calm.

Nanzhi immediately knelt down to thank the emperor: "I am willing to do so. Thank you very much, Your Majesty. I will manage Changchun Palace well."

[Since it is the main dish, should there be more dishes? 】

emperor:……

He gave her the position of concubine and that's how she felt.

The emperor was unwilling to give too many high-ranking positions to concubines, and all kinds of specifications had to be improved. These things were all bought with money.

The position of concubine is not a matter of having more dishes. The emperor suddenly felt that he had suffered a great loss and was unhappy, so he wanted to withdraw this decision.

He was a wooden man who could not say anything nice, not even a single nice word in his heart. Even if someone scolded him, the emperor would think it was normal.

Instead of the feeling of being depressed now.

He is the emperor, yet he has to endure this humiliation from you.

[Your Majesty is a very kind person, and so is the Queen. I hope this loving couple will live a long life, and I can live a good life in the palace.]

emperor:??!!

It is really not easy to say something nice to a taciturn person.

The emperor's lips curled up slightly.

This is what Jiang Cainu really thinks, and since it is what she really thinks, it must be true.

No one would lie in his heart and lie to himself.

The emperor believed in mind reading.

He looked at the woman in front of him. At least she was not full of resentment towards him, but rather a mixture of love and hate towards him.

He was really fed up with the distorted voices of the women in the harem. They were all greedy and ambitious, but they described all of this as love for him, like crazy.

Maybe it's better to have fewer voices. It's a bit stupid, but it doesn't make people feel so uncomfortable.

The emperor leaned back slightly, somewhat relaxed. He looked at the fool who had received the benefit but didn't even know how to show his courtesy, and asked, "Can you manage Changchun Palace well? You don't act like the master of a palace."

Nanzhi immediately said: "I can learn. I will learn from the Queen."

  Emperor: ...Learn from the Queen?

The empress seldom managed the affairs of the harem and did not covet the power to manage it. Many matters were managed by people sent by the emperor.

It can be said that the emperor has control over both the former dynasty and the harem.

The queen is actually just a decoration.

The emperor had to be consulted on everything, no matter how big or small.

The emperor looked at her, thought for a moment and said, "I will send a nanny over when the time comes, and you will learn from her."

Nanzhi bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

The emperor listened but did not hear her inner thoughts. He was speechless. He looked at her and she looked at him, their eyes fixed on each other.

Nanzhi: "Your Majesty, shall I serve you another cup of tea?"

Emperor: ...This is not a normal person.

Emperor: "I am leaving?"

Nanzhi bowed and said, "Farewell, Your Majesty."

Emperor: "...You won't keep me?"

The other concubines wanted to eat him, but Jiang Cainü just let him go.

Nanzhi: "I know that Your Majesty is going to the Queen's palace."

The emperor couldn't hear her thoughts and felt very uncomfortable. "You are smart. You know I want to go to the Queen's Palace."

The emperor felt very insecure because he couldn't hear his inner voice.

Nanzhi nodded, "Yes, there is no doubt that your Majesty and the Queen are in love."

There was a man who admitted his feelings for the queen, despite everyone's opposition.

The emperor felt a little more comfortable, knowing that even if he had done something wrong, people would understand him.

Moreover, he is the Son of Heaven. How could an emperor do something wrong? If he did something wrong, it would be punishment from Heaven. It is not the turn of these people to blame him.

The emperor warned: "Respect the queen. You have been promoted to concubine today, but it does not mean you have the right to disobey the queen."

Nanzhi immediately said, "I will remember this."

The emperor had no intention of staying, so he left with a flick of his sleeves. When he went out, he met Su Rongzai, who was standing alone in the courtyard.

She seemed surprised that the emperor came out, and looked lost, which made people feel sorry for her.

Unfortunately, her manic heart betrayed her. (End of this chapter)
