The unwavering determination in her eyes meant that anyone who tried to get close to Qin Qianluo or harm her would face her merciless retaliation.

She was like an indestructible, impregnable barrier, sheltering Qin Qianluo from the wind and rain, and resisting all invading enemies, even if there were mountains of knives and seas of fire ahead, she would not back down.

Moreover, Qin Qianluo also possesses Feng Qingyun's system.

This Feng Qingyun is like a treasure trove of wisdom from a mysterious and unknown realm. She listens to Qin Qianluo's every word and is like an all-powerful and powerful ally.

It knows all the secrets of the world, whether it is the art of divination or the strategies for governing a country.

Whether it's a clever way to deal with complex interpersonal relationships, it can provide accurate and effective advice instantly.

At any critical moment, it can offer advice and help Qin Qianluo solve her problems.

It helped her navigate the complex situation with ease, as if it had paved a smooth path for her on a thorny road.

Furthermore, Qin Qianluo's sincere heart, which is solely dedicated to the well-being of the people, shines like a brilliant star in the sky, as clear as the sun and moon in this complex world.

From the moment she entered this world, she regarded the suffering of the people as her own pain and the happiness and well-being of all living beings as her lifelong pursuit.

She went deep into the countryside to understand the hardships and hunger of the people; she devoted herself to improving their lives.

Every decision she made and every action she took was based on the interests of the people.

How could she easily abandon all living beings, disregard the lives of ordinary people, and resolutely leave?

Thinking of this, the emperor couldn't help but chuckle, a smile that carried a hint of self-mockery, as if mocking his own narrow-mindedness and shortsightedness, yet also revealed a sense of relief and exhilaration.

It felt as if a heavy weight had finally been lifted from my heart.

The worries in his heart vanished without a trace, like a wisp of smoke carried away by a gentle breeze.

He couldn't help but slowly reach out his hand, his movements gentle yet full of affection, as if afraid of disturbing this beautiful moment.

He gently took the Queen's hand; his palm was broad and warm, like the warm spring sun, conveying endless gratitude and intimacy.

He leaned forward slightly, his eyes filled with tenderness and gratitude, as if trying to convey this emotion to the Empress's heart through his gaze.

He said softly, "It was truly my oversight that led me to judge a gentleman by the standards of a petty person, and I underestimated Qin Qianluo so much."

I should not have thrown myself into such a state of confusion and become caught up in this pointless worry. Such self-inflicted trouble is truly unbecoming of a ruler and lacks composure and wisdom.

If it weren't for Zitong's words, which resonated like a thunderclap and pierced through the fog of confusion, I would probably still be trapped in this intricate web of delusion, unable to extricate myself.

All of this was truly my fault. It is thanks to Zitong's wisdom and reminders that I have been able to see the light and no longer have to worry about such trivial matters.

"Your Highness's virtue and wisdom are truly a blessing to me, and a blessing to the world."

A smile, as bright and gentle as the first rays of spring sunshine, slowly spread across Xiao Wanxi's exquisite face.

She turned her graceful figure slightly to the side, her clear, watery eyes filled with concern and deep affection.

She gently raised her fair, jade-like hand, as if a gentle breeze were caressing a flower bud, and softly patted the Emperor's hand that was tightly holding hers.

This seemingly casual tap, however, seemed to carry a magical and delicate power, just like a spring breeze.

It quietly soothed the ripples in the Emperor's heart caused by numerous worries, instantly calming his slightly agitated mind.

Then, she parted her lips slightly, like a flower petal just beginning to bloom, and her voice was like a clear, cheerful mountain stream.

The clear and melodious sounds echoed throughout the tranquil and warm palace.

Every note seemed meticulously crafted, brimming with deep tenderness and understanding: "His Majesty has always had the world in his heart and cared for all the people."

He always puts the well-being of the people first, working tirelessly day and night.

It is precisely because of this deep concern for the people that he is so worried about the many complicated affairs of the court, and can hardly eat or sleep.

I, your humble servant, have only done a little bit of my duty with my limited knowledge; it is really not worth mentioning.

Your Majesty is busy with countless affairs of state and bears the heavy responsibility of governing the country; there is no need to take such a trivial matter by a concubine so seriously.

The Emperor's gaze seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, fixed intently on the Empress before him, who had walked hand in hand with him through countless years.

Time seemed to have been exceptionally kind to her, like a highly skilled painter.

It did not leave too many traces of vicissitude on her face, but instead added a touch of maturity and charm to her.

Even as time slips away like a fleeting moment, she remains breathtakingly beautiful, her eyes and brows radiating gentleness and intelligence.

With the passage of time and the refinement of experience, it becomes increasingly profound and captivating, like a clear spring that can nourish the soul.
