The emperor didn't expect this incident to make Concubine Shu bleed.
With a smile on his face, he asked the ministers to stand up and said to Concubine Shu.
"Toffee, get up."
Concubine Shu stood up and noticed the baby in the emperor's hand. She looked at Yu Yiluo with a kind smile.
"When I came here, I heard from the people that the emperor had a newborn little princess. She's very cute and pretty. I guess this must be the child, right?"
The emperor nodded, and when he saw that Concubine Shu wanted to raise her hand to touch Yu Yiluo, the little guy's angry voice rang in his ears.
【Go away, stop pulling me. 】
"Your Highness, you have been traveling so long. I will take you to the palace to rest." The emperor said as he turned around, allowing Yu Yiluo to avoid the touch of Your Highness Shu.
Concubine Shu withdrew her hand and was about to say no when the emperor said, "Thank you for taking care of me when I was a child. Please don't refuse."
The group went straight to the harem and stopped at the door of a palace after walking for a while.
"My Lady, I heard that you like quietness, so I arranged this relatively quiet place for you to live. I wonder if you are satisfied?"
Shu Fei didn’t know whether Shu Fei was satisfied or not, but she and De Fei were relatively satisfied.
[What can I do if I'm not satisfied? I'm a Ninja Turtle.]
[It's just a place to live. It won't affect her doing things.]
"Now the Concubine Shu is in charge of the harem. I told her that the Concubine Dowager likes quietness. If the Concubine Dowager doesn't like it, I will let the Concubine Shu make new arrangements."
The emperor observed Concubine Shu's expression, his smile still on his face, without the slightest displeasure.
No wonder Luo'er said that disguise is powerful, it is indeed powerful.
Unhappy emotions are hidden so well.
"It's nice here," Concubine Shu said softly, looking at the remote palace in front of her, "Your Majesty is thoughtful. It's amazing that you still remember that I like quietness."
The group entered and found the palace clean and tidy.
"As long as the Concubine Dowager is satisfied, if you need anything, please let someone tell Concubine Shu."
The two exchanged a few more pleasantries, and then the emperor, Concubine Xian and the other two turned and left.
Concubine Shu looked at the backs of the people leaving.
The emperor tightened his hands on the armrest, and seemed to have changed a lot.
Although the emperor was talented and capable when he was still a prince, he could not hide his emotions and people could easily see through his thoughts.
He looks so gentle now, and he has grown a lot, making him hard to understand.
"My dear Concubine, it's no wonder you were so kind to the Emperor back then. The Emperor still remembers the kindness of you, his aunt. This grand ceremony today is a privilege only reserved for the Empress Dowager."
The personal maid Lu'er said as she massaged Concubine Shu's shoulders.
Concubine Shu chuckled softly, "Lu'er, you are still too young. You know that this is a privilege reserved for the Empress Dowager. Is the Emperor really doing this for my own good?"
There is still this palace, the only thing missing is to let her live outside the palace.
Lu'er pursed her lips and said indignantly when she heard that.
"I thought the Emperor was doing this for the Dowager's own good. Was this remote palace intentional? But why aren't you angry, Dowager?"
Concubine Shu looked calm and said, "It's not worth getting angry over such a small matter."
She has always understood that a lack of patience will ruin a great plan.
…
As expected, Shu Taifei's return to the palace caused dissatisfaction among the ministers.
The next day, the emperor's desk was piled with memorials.
The emperor looked at the memorial in front of him and smiled so much that the corners of his mouth almost reached the back of his head.
Eunuch Cao was puzzled. Why was the emperor so happy when he saw the memorials from the ministers criticizing him?
In the past, when I saw this kind of memorial, I would definitely pick up a pen and start cursing.
"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister requests an audience."
The emperor put away the smile on his face and said, "Let someone in."
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."
The emperor raised his eyelids and looked at the prime minister. "Prime Minister, is there anything you want to ask?"
[You're asking this question despite knowing the answer. Could it be that the tyrant is planning to be extremely nice to Concubine Shu so that the ministers will become even more dissatisfied with her?]
"Your Majesty, you have indeed gone too far in having Concubine Shu return to the palace. It is sufficient to have His Royal Highness the Crown Prince personally go and welcome the Concubine back to the palace."
"After what you did yesterday, the ministers all thought you cared too much about the Concubine. They were afraid that Concubine Shu would interfere in government affairs in the future."
There are precedents for this in history books, and Prime Minister Li does not think this is groundless worry.
"Only you, Prime Minister, would dare to say this to my face," the Emperor pointed at the pile of memorials before him. "Prime Minister, can't you see this?"
Prime Minister Li looked at the memorial and suddenly realized that the emperor had done it on purpose. His worries seemed unnecessary.
[Strange, Concubine Shu hasn't even started to make a move yet. How can the tyrant predict the future? Why is he already thinking of targeting Concubine Shu?]
However, Prime Minister Li was worried that Concubine Shu would get involved in politics. This worry was completely unnecessary. Concubine Shu returned to the palace this time and wanted to kill everyone involved in that incident.
[This alone is enough to keep her busy, how could she possibly have time to get involved in politics?]
emperor:"……"
Should he also thank the other party for not wanting to get involved in politics?
What was that matter that Luo'er was talking about participating in?
"I am just worrying about nothing."
Prime Minister Li took out a memorial and said, "This is from Changshan."
Eunuch Cao presented the memorial to the emperor.
The emperor opened the memorial and read it, then laughed out loud.
"Okay, I agree. If you want to get rich, you must build roads first."
"Anyway, we have the mine left by the King of Yueqing. We can build anything we want if we have the money. It would be best if we could build a waterway. That way, when Cai Ze discovers Changshan is suitable for growing lychees, we can use it later."
[This will also be very useful when Li Qian's business grows.]
Lychees are a rare commodity. If you want to eat lychees, you can only do so when other countries pay tribute to them.
Thinking of this, the emperor added, "Build another waterway. If the money is not enough, I will allocate more."
