August 25th, 6:15 PM, Laifeng Kingdom Palace.

Inside the Mingzhu Palace, Situ Mingting, dressed in gorgeous brocade clothes, was lazily lying on the beauty couch in the hall, with his eyes slightly closed, pretending to be asleep, enjoying the massage of his shoulders and back by the eunuchs.

"Well, Little Li, whose card did the Emperor turn over tonight?"

Situ Mingting, who was lying on the beauty bed, slowly opened his eyes, glanced at the eunuch behind him, and then began to admire his own red nail polish on his fingers.

"Your Excellency, the Emperor did not turn over anyone's name card when he returned to the palace for dinner." Little Li Zi continued to pound while answering Situ Mingting's question.

"Oh? Do you know where the emperor went after leaving the palace today?" Situ Mingting seemed to be interested in the eunuch's words and rarely gave him a straight look.

"Your Excellency, I only heard that the Emperor left the palace with the General, but I have no idea where they went." Little Li bowed and continued kneading with his hands.

"Feng Cailan?"

Upon hearing this, Situ Mingting narrowed his bright eyes slightly, and his handsome face, which looked younger than his actual age, looked elegant and extraordinary.

"It seems that our emperor misses his brother Queen Feng!" Situ Mingting curled the corners of his lips slightly.

"That Imperial Noble Ouyang Yuming, who claims to have the best relationship with Queen Phoenix, must be missing Queen Phoenix just as much as the Emperor..."

Situ Mingting's pair of bright eyes were shining with a mischievous cunning.

"Someone, help me change my clothes and comb my hair again. I have to go and comfort my good brother!"

A quarter of an hour later, Situ Mingting, who had changed into a noble indigo-blue palace dress and combed her hair into a bun, and was surrounded by pearls and emeralds, walked out of the Mingzhu Palace in a very proud manner, surrounded by eunuchs, and went to the Qiongyu Palace where Ouyang Yuming lived.

"Is there any news from the Jingshifang?"

Inside the Qiongyu Palace, a handsome man dressed in royal blue jade brocade court robes with auspicious cloud patterns inlaid with gold, and a phoenix-shaped hairpin in burnt blue and kingfisher feathers, was sitting in front of the Bailing Terrace, looking down at the eunuch who was kneeling on the ground to answer him with an unpredictable look of emotion.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor... The Emperor did not turn over the card tonight." The eunuch kneeling on the ground lowered his head and eyes, very obedient, and replied respectfully.

"Did you order someone to put my green badge first?" Ouyang Yuming's narrow and long phoenix eyes were slightly tinged with anger as he glanced at the eunuch kneeling on the ground.

"Your Majesty, I dare not be lazy. All the eunuchs in the Jingshifang have taken care of everything. It's...it's the Emperor who said she has no interest and asked...the chief steward to remove all the signs..." Facing Ouyang Yuming's murderous gaze, the eunuch trembled and his voice became smaller and smaller.

"How ridiculous! Are you saying that I'm old and ugly, and the Emperor has no interest in me anymore?"

"Someone, come and slap me in the face!"

Following Ouyang Yuming's furious order, a fat middle-aged man with an expressionless face walked out from the corner of the hall. After coming in front of the kneeling monk, he slapped him left and right.

"Oh my! Who has made our virtuous and generous Emperor so angry?"

Just as Ouyang Yuming was furious, a very charming and pleasant voice suddenly came from outside the palace. Then he saw Situ Mingting, dressed in indigo palace robes, surrounded by many eunuchs, coming towards his palace.

"Wait outside the palace!"

"Yes, Mr. Situ."

After leaving the eunuch outside the hall, Situ Mingting strode into the Qiongyu Hall with his long legs.

"Mingting is here to pay his respects to my brother!"

After Situ Mingting entered the hall, he bowed to Ouyang Yuming and then sat down opposite him.

"Ah, it's Brother Mingting! This ignorant servant did something wrong, and I just gave him a light punishment."

Seeing Situ Mingting sitting opposite him without treating him as an outsider after entering the hall, Ouyang Yuming immediately put away his gloomy and angry expression and replaced it with a face of brotherly friendship.

"I did something wrong, so I deserve to be punished. But Brother Ouyang, please don't take it too seriously. After all, anger is harmful to your health, and it also... makes you age faster."

Situ Mingting glanced at the eunuch who was kneeling on the ground with his cheeks swollen from being slapped, and then looked meaningfully at Ouyang Yuming's crow's feet and nasolabial folds that could not be covered even with thick powder, and reminded him unkindly.

"Heh... Brother Mingting is right. Just now, I was just missing my brother Queen Feng and was upset for a moment, so I couldn't help but lose my temper with the servant." Ouyang Yuming said with a forced smile, trying to resist the urge to scratch Situ Mingting's pretty face.

"Brother Ouyang and Brother Feng Hou are truly brothers with deep affection. Brother Ouyang even specially prepared so many delicious dishes and wines to commemorate Brother Feng Hou. Brother Feng Hou is truly blessed (or extremely unlucky) to have a good brother like Brother Ouyang!"

Looking at the table laden with fine wine and delicacies on the Bailing Terrace, Situ Mingting scoffed. "No matter how you look at it, this looks like something they're trying to seduce the Emperor. Who knows, maybe there's even some colorless, tasteless Hehuan Powder in the wine!" Situ Mingting muttered to himself.

Next, Situ Mingting kept making sarcastic remarks and ridiculing Ouyang Yuming. Then, surrounded by many eunuchs, he returned to his Mingzhu Palace with a happy face.

"How can this be possible!"

After Situ Mingting walked away, Ouyang Yuming angrily swept all the wine and food on Bailingtai to the ground.

"This Situ Mingting, relying on his sister who was the Prime Minister in the previous dynasty, is acting lawless in the harem and even acting wildly here in front of me?"
