Ji Fengyao's lips curled slightly at one corner, a hint of cold charm amidst her cuteness: Do you all think I'm nothing special?

Hopefully your little nest egg has grown fat again;

If the stock is not large, I am not satisfied with my storage space for stones;

This lady can instantly transform into a cactus and prick you until your throats are sore and your mouths are raw!

Emperor Shang Xiche truly loved the thirteenth prince, after all, he was the last son in his life. Even though the Empress Dowager's eyes were almost bulging from being squeezed, he still patiently waited until the last elder finished bestowing blessings.

Shang Xiche held Little Thirteen in his arms for a while longer.

Until the Empress Dowager became extremely angry, she coughed loudly several times in court to remind and protest.

Shang Xiche then had the maidservant beside Consort Yin take the thirteenth child away. He glanced around at everyone in the hall and said loudly, "Since the Di Kingdom's envoys entered the territory of our Great Zhao Kingdom, their progress has been very slow. The post station officials along the way have also reported that the Di Kingdom's envoys have stayed in each place for quite some time. I'm afraid there are other reasons for this."

Xidan borders the Di Kingdom. Ninth Prince, you have just returned from Xidan and should be more familiar with the situation there. Come with me to the Imperial Study to discuss this matter with the other officials.”

Shang Xiye turned his head and exchanged a knowing look with the young female bandit, then stood up and replied in a deep voice, "Yes!"

Upon hearing the word "yes",

The emperor, empress dowager, empress, and crown prince all subtly revealed smiles.

After the emperor, Shang Xiye, and relevant ministers left.

Just as the Empress Dowager was about to speak and pull Ji Fengyao to Cining Palace, the Empress said, "Mother, I think that since our imperial uncles have not been to the palace for a long time, they must have a lot to say to you. So I have arranged a tea house and an opera troupe in Changyin Pavilion. Please come and listen to the opera and have a chat with your imperial uncles."

"The Empress is truly gentle, kind, and filial!"

"Yes, she acted prudently, truly worthy of being the Empress!"

"The Empress Dowager is a virtuous and blessed person, which is why the Empress is so respectful and filial to her."

The Empress's actions won unanimous praise from the old princes, and when they praised the Empress, they were all referring to the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager is truly full of utter filth!

He wished he could poke holes in the Empress with his eyes!

Respectful and filial?

I hope that every family has such a "respectful and filial" daughter-in-law who thinks day and night about how to overthrow your son and take your place!

But since the Empress had pulled this stunt in front of everyone, even if the Empress Dowager didn't want to go a million times over, she could only swallow her bitterness and suffer in silence.

After the Empress accompanied the Empress Dowager and a group of old princes away, Consort Yin also arranged for people to take the Yin family members and the families of high-ranking officials and nobles away for resettlement.

The younger members of the royal family and the concubines in the palace then dispersed.

At this moment, Ji Fengyao was about to go down to rest with the maid arranged by Consort Yin when the Empress Dowager sent a palace maid to Ji Fengyao and said, "Princess Chonghe, the Empress Dowager said that she is not feeling well. It is a rare opportunity for the old princes to enter the palace. If we summon the imperial physician now, it may spoil everyone's mood. Therefore, we would like to ask the princess to condescend to go and take a look at the Empress Dowager first."

Ji Fengyao hadn't spoken yet.

At this moment, Consort Yin personally led her maids and hurriedly came over.

Hui Jin shoved aside the maid sent by the Empress Dowager and escorted Consort Yin to Ji Fengyao's side.

Consort Yin then grabbed Ji Fengyao's hand with great emotion and tears in her eyes, and said in a distressed voice, "I know that the princess also feels sorry for Hao'er. Please, princess, go and see Hao'er!"
