As the king of the Great Xia Kingdom, I have been working hard and neglecting sleep and food, and have lost a lot of weight recently.
Niu Baijin, the Minister of Works, actually gained weight!
Where is justice! Ahhhhhhhh!
"Speak!" Xia Zhengqi said coldly.
Niu Baijin was a little frightened when he met Xia Zhengqi's stern gaze.
I haven't said anything yet, why is the emperor staring at me like that?
"I request that the Emperor release the virtuous concubine from the Fanyin Temple and return her to the palace."
"Last time, the Imperial Master only said that the Concubine Xian should go outside the palace for a while. Now that so much time has passed, and the palace has been safe and sound, the Concubine Xian should be able to return."
Xia Miaoyuan rolled her eyes in disdain. "Humph, of course you're anxious to get Consort Xian back to the palace so you can continue to be Liang Chaozong's spy."

"Actually, I also want to bring Concubine Xian back to the palace as soon as possible. But I am really worried that the same thing will happen again."
Niu Baijin paused and continued, "Your Majesty, the Concubine Xian lives in Fanyin Temple, and the Fourth Prince really misses his biological mother! Why don't we ask the Imperial Preceptor to think of other ways to resolve the situation and bring the Concubine Xian back to the palace?"
Xia Zhengqi stroked his beard and said calmly, "It's not easy to miss your biological mother. I can let the Fourth Prince move to Fanyin Temple with me!"
A look of panic flashed across Niu Baijin's face. "Just pretend I didn't say anything. The Fourth Prince doesn't need to move. You can just stay in the palace."
Xia Zhengqi lowered his head, pursed his lips and smiled secretly. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and an idea flashed in his mind.
"By the way, Mr. Niu. What have you been busy with in the Ministry of Industry lately?"
"The New Year has just passed, and the Ministry of Industry doesn't have any major projects to do." Niu Baijin looked a little confused.
"That's great, I have something for you to do!"
