In his heart, he was filled with gratitude towards the Empress Dowager and Academician Chu. He showed his loyalty in front of Chu Shibai in various ways, wanting to cling to this big tree tightly.

Upon hearing the news, the Right Prime Minister and others were quite satisfied. Although the fifth rank was not the highest official position, it was really rare for someone like Zhang San.

When Nalan Yulo heard the news, he flew into a rage again and smashed everything in the yard.

Coincidentally, when she got angry, Zhang San came to her house with a matchmaker and betrothal gifts.

The betrothal gift was very modest, but it was all he had.

But the maid came to report in a hurry, saying that the eldest lady was trying to commit suicide again...

Zhang San's face immediately turned cold.

But he still forced a smile and completed the process, but in his heart he felt even more disgusted with Nalan Yulo.

...

Two days later, Haitang quietly left the palace.

The Empress Dowager had just recovered from a serious illness. As soon as the news spread in the palace, Concubine De was the first to visit.

Seeing Haitang was fine, she still burst into tears and cried for a long time.

"Mother, you must be worried about me to death"

Regardless of anything, she took Haitang's hand and pressed it against her face, "Look, mother, I'm getting too thin."

I also rubbed Haitang's palm...

It's like a kitten asking for a pat.

Haitang thought she was funny, and pinched her face, "I'll ask the imperial kitchen to send more delicious food to nourish you."

"It's still my mother who loves me."

"Good boy~"

After lunch, concubines came one after another to pay their respects to the emperor.

The queen even brought some precious nourishing herbs. "Mother, this is the extremely rare Tianshan snow lotus. I'll make you some tea."

"Hiroko, please accept it. The Queen is very thoughtful."

Chu Yuexun hesitated for a moment, but still reported, "Mother, the Emperor has been going to the harem every night recently, but..."

Haitang raised her eyebrows. Liu Jianchen started to enter the harem?

"What's wrong?"

"But he only stays in Yaquan Palace every night, and I am afraid..."

"If the Queen has any concerns, please speak up."

"I am afraid that my sister will be pregnant and won't be well taken care of, so I want my mother to tell the emperor, no matter which concubine he favors, it would be better to tell her, and this person will serve the emperor well, which is also a great achievement."

Haitang lowered her eyes and tapped lightly on the small table with her armored little finger...

After a while, she replied, "The Emperor is a filial son, but I cannot interfere too much in his bedroom. Does the Empress understand?"

Chu Yuexun: "......"

That’s enough. The Queen is a smart person and she won’t mention it again.

Haitang was still very happy.

Miss him!!

...

At nightfall, without any need to pass on messages, the two of them met at Yaquan Palace in tacit understanding.

Today, Liu Jianchen was only wearing a dark green suit with silver thread embroidered on it. He looked less imperial and more noble than a distinguished young master.

"Tangtang."

As he felt a softness in his arms, Liu Jianchen felt his heart melt.

"Achen, do you miss me?"

What she responded with was an extremely passionate kiss.

Caressing gently and exploring deeply, it seems to taste the ultimate sweetness in the world, greedily wrapped up in...

It ends with a kiss.

His voice was trembling and a little breathless, "Tangtang, I miss you so much that it hurts."

"Where does it hurt?"

"Here, and here, touch it."

He was still so easily excited.

It was just a kiss, but some parts were so...
