Personal Edict

"Your Majesty seemed to be in a hurry to find me yesterday. I didn't come, but did I delay your Majesty?"

The two of them sat down in the east side hall. Dongruo brought tea and then stood aside as quietly as bamboo smoke.

Jiang Zhi lowered her eyes and smiled: "It's not an urgent matter. It's just that your Majesty woke up last night and said he wanted to see the princess. But Dong Ruo said that the princess was unwell. Just in time, your majesty fell asleep again, so I also

I don’t plan to bother the princess anymore.”

Song Qing'an was heartbroken.

If Zhu Yan hadn't communicated with her, she would have been deceived.

Last night, Dong Ruo pressed forward step by step, looking like he was bound to take her away.

Thinking of this, Song Qing'an raised his eyes and looked at Dong Ruo who was standing aside.

Zhu Yan said...My brother and Dong Ruo seemed to have said something alone.

What did the brother do to make this maid who was most loyal to Jiang Zhi willing to cover up for her?

"To put it this way, it's hard work for Miss Dongruo to make the trip..."

Song Qingan stared at Dongruo and said slowly.

Dongruo felt nervous when she looked at her, and quickly replied: "The princess has spoken harshly, it's what a maid should do."

"Well...Miss Dongruo does her duty very well."

The meaning of her words was unclear, and Jiang Zhi always felt that she was implying something, but if she thought about it carefully, there was nothing wrong with her.

Did she notice something?

"Could it be that the princess has fallen in love with Dongruo and wants to poach Weiyang Palace?"

Jiang Zhi said half-jokingly, trying to cover up the weird atmosphere.

"The queen is joking, but Qing'an doesn't dare. What's more... Dongruo doesn't want to either."

Song Qing'an's eyes looked as if they were in the dark, but he finally took them back.

"I just came here recently to see if I have delayed your Majesty in anything. It seems like... there shouldn't be anything, right?"

"No." Jiang Zhihe said kindly, "Princess was in poor health yesterday. Is she feeling better today?"

"I can... call the imperial doctor to look at the princess."

Song Qing'an nodded slightly and thanked politely: "No need, I'm fine today. So...that means there's no need to delay?"

"yes."

Song Qing'an's face became more relaxed and he seemed to be in a good mood: "That's good. Madam, Qing'an came here today because of one thing."

Jiang Zhi raised her eyebrows curiously: "Princess, it doesn't matter if you say so."

The corners of Song Qing'an's lips curled up, and there was a subtle tingling hidden in the harmless smile: "Has your Majesty ever visited Liu Cairen?"

The corners of Jiang Zhi's lips froze obviously, and then they quickly curved into a perfect curve: "Why did I go to see her? What's more, I went to see her without His Majesty's order, but I resisted the order."

Song Qing'an's eyes wandered and he looked out the window: "But the empress... I want to see her."

Jiang Zhi's eyes were slightly cold: "Why did the princess go to see her?"

"We are always old friends, so I should go and visit him because of my feelings and reasons." Song Qing'an smiled softly and could not find any fault. Jiang Zhi's brows narrowed slightly and said: "No one is allowed to enter or leave Changle Palace without His Majesty's order.

"

"Then I'll just ask for a copy of His Majesty's will."

Song Qing'an's tone was relaxed, as if he was just talking about a very ordinary thing. Jiang Zhi's lips were slightly depressed, and her face was cold: "Princess, it's best not to disturb Your Majesty right now."

"But didn't your Majesty say that your Majesty wanted to see me yesterday?"

Song Qing'an raised his eyebrows as if he was wondering: "Your Majesty, if you care so much about your Majesty's wishes, then you should follow your Majesty's wishes. If Your Majesty wants to see me, I will naturally come."

"Princess, not now."

It was rare for Jiang Zhi to treat Song Qing'an with such a cold attitude. The latter's smile did not change, as if he didn't care at all.

She looked steadily at Jiang Zhi and talked about an unrelated matter: "Then let me tell you something interesting, but I also heard it from the palace people. Whether it is true or false cannot be determined."

"The servants are talking nonsense, why does the princess listen to this?"

"Mother, I have nothing to do anyway. I listen to some occasionally just to pass the time."

Song Qing'an tapped the outer wall of the tea cup, and there was a crisp sound between his fingertips and the porcelain.

"Besides, with so many people in the palace, can everyone cover their mouths?"

Song Qing'an said meaningfully, with a faint look in his eyes: "There are always some things that you can't hide even if you want to, does that mean it's your Majesty's opinion?"

Jiang Zhi felt flustered for no reason and forced herself to calm down: "Only those who have done bad things think about this. I sit upright, are you still afraid?"

"That's the best thing, because what Qing'an heard... was related to the empress." Song Qing'an covered his front and sighed as if he was relieved.

Jiang Zhi's hands under her sleeves clenched tightly unconsciously, and she sneered: "I would like to know what those slaves will arrange for me?"

Song Qing'an frowned, with worry on his face: "Do you really want to hear it?"

Without waiting for Jiang Zhi to answer, she immediately answered: "Since your Majesty wants to hear it, I will say it. Please don't be angry with me because of this."

Song Qingan curled his lips and lowered his voice: "Do you still remember Zhao Cairen?"

"Zhao Cairen? How about it?"

Song Qingan lowered his eyelids and whispered: "Zhao Cairen's fetus... and the empress... seem to be inextricably linked."

Jiang Zhimeng slapped the shore and shouted: "Be brave!"

Song Qing'an was unmoved. He sat on his seat and smiled at her anger, and even comforted her: "Why is your Majesty so angry because of the rumors? Didn't I tell you that? Your Majesty wants to listen to you, so don't be angry with Qing'an."

"Empress, tell me...it would be very bad if this rumor reaches His Majesty's ears..."

Song Qing'an leaned forward slightly, and the smile filled his eyes. But the light color of his eyes became darker due to the smile, and his eyes that could have looked to the bottom at a glance were now as unfathomable as ancient wells.

Jiang Zhi's heart suddenly trembled, and her face turned frighteningly cold.

——

"Fusha, is it true that there was no letter from father yesterday?"

Liu Qiyun frowned and paced back and forth in the hall anxiously.

"Replying to your Majesty, Master Liu really didn't write to you. Maybe...maybe something delayed him?"

"There shouldn't be anything that could keep my father so busy at this time of year."

"Mother, maybe..."

Liu Qiyun suddenly stopped and looked at Fusha: "What do you know?"

"Your Majesty, I heard this from hearsay..."

Fu Xia shrank her neck, and Liu Qiyun said impatiently: "Hearsay is just a piece of news. Besides, what if it is true?"

"Reporting to the empress, my maid heard... I heard that Master Zhangyin did not go to court yesterday and today, and more and more secret documents were sent to Weiyang Palace. It seems that... they have all been stopped."

Liu Qiyun's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she asked eagerly: "Seriously?"

"Your Majesty, my maid is just a rumor that I heard. Maybe...maybe it's not true at all."

"It doesn't matter," Liu Qiyun's eyes flashed with frightening excitement, "Whether it is true or false, of course it doesn't matter. If you can hear this... I'm afraid it will already be spreading outside."

"No wonder my father is so busy...Isn't the time closer?"

She muttered nervously, and Fusha calmly pushed away half a step to distance herself from her.

At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the hall.

The sound was familiar yet unfamiliar. Liu Qiyun was stunned for a moment, then quickly walked out of the hall.

Fusha hurriedly followed, but Liu Qijun walked so fast that Fusha couldn't catch up with her for a while.

When she hurriedly caught up, Liu Qiyun was standing on the steps looking at the slowly opening palace door, her body trembling slightly with excitement.
