He didn't know why Nan Zhiyun was acting so strangely these days. But what could he do about it?
"Go, how about we stay with Yun'er today?" Even though he knew Nan Zhiyun was saying it on purpose, he still agreed. He wouldn't go anywhere else except to He'an Palace.
Nan Zhiyun was happy to receive a definite answer.
Yu Jingchen was at a loss with her. Before he could say anything, Nan Zhiyun immediately followed up with, "Is Your Majesty going to be busy later?"
"What's wrong? Are you tired?" Yu Jingchen was even thinking of calling the imperial physician. What's going on? This is so strange. Is he feeling unwell?
"I want to sleep." Nan Zhiyun said this very directly now, and her tone was much more relaxed.
"Then you can rest here for a while." Yu Jingchen didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
"I can't sleep. I need to go back to sleep so I can sleep. I'm not used to it here," Nan Zhiyun said, and naturally climbed onto Yu Jingchen's arm. But... Consort Shu, you'll sleep very soundly here from now on.
"Going back now?" Yu Jingchen asked.
"Is it alright, Your Majesty?" Nan Zhiyun asked him cautiously.
"Sure, whatever you want. Shall I take you back now?" Yu Jingchen didn't insist.
"Mmm," Nan Zhiyun nodded.
Yu Jingchen patted her head haphazardly a couple of times, then ordered someone to prepare a sedan chair. Nan Zhiyun hadn't liked riding in it before because she found it too bumpy. So Yu Jingchen had it redone, trying to make her as comfortable as possible.
After Nan Zhiyun left, Yu Jingchen threw himself back into the day's trivial matters. He had some things piled up before, so he would be busy for the next couple of days.
After returning to her palace, Nan Zhiyun had her clothes, jewelry, and other belongings brought over.
"Your Highness, what are you doing?" Qianxia asked.
"Let me see," Nan Zhiyun said, looking at the huge selection of items with some distress. What should she choose? She didn't know what Yu Jingchen liked... Would anything like that even look good?
But there are many very good-looking people in the palace, yet His Majesty doesn't seem to give them even a second glance. So what is His Majesty looking at?
"Qianxia, what kind of things does His Majesty like?" Nan Zhiyun suddenly asked.
"His Majesty likes the Empress just the way she is. No matter what she looks like, His Majesty will like her." Qianxia usually coaxed Nan Zhiyun like this.
Nan Zhiyun was speechless; it was as if he hadn't said anything at all. However… she felt inexplicably sweet inside. Hearing these words, she couldn't help but smile, and even shrugged happily.
"I don't want them anymore, put them all away." Nan Zhiyun finally decided not to use these complicated jewelry pieces. Qianxia didn't ask any further questions, but simply had them put away again.
"Is Your Highness going to rest?" Qianxia remembered that Her Highness had just said that she was tired and that's why she insisted on coming back.
“That was a lie I told His Majesty,” Nan Zhiyun blurted out.
Qianxia: "..." Your Majesty, you really are honest. Why didn't you tell His Majesty just now?
“I’m not sleepy today, I don’t need to sleep,” Nan Zhiyun added. Qianxia was speechless. She was supposed to be serving her mistress, but it was like she was coaxing a child. However, the mistress had a good personality; she was simple, carefree, and didn’t have to worry about anything.
