Ye Xiaoxiao was preoccupied and did not notice Shangguan Lingyun at first.
Qing Ning, who was about to pour tea, saw him at the door of the hall. Just as she was about to salute, Shangguan Lingyun waved his hand to stop her.
Qing Ning and the Queen Mother were facing the entrance of the main hall, so the Queen Mother also saw Shangguan Lingyun.
Seeing that he had no intention of coming in, the Queen Mother understood his intention.
"Xiaoxiao, you and Lingyun are husband and wife, it's normal to care about him."
Ye Xiaoxiao obviously didn't want to continue this topic, and interrupted the empress dowager without waiting for her to finish speaking.
"Mother, now is not the time to say whether my daughter-in-law cares about him or not."
"My daughter-in-law asked the people from the No. 1 Manor in the World to check the information of those women. You didn't know that."
"Not only do they have unusual family backgrounds, some of them are even involved in conflicts of interest with many other officials."
The Queen Mother looked at Ye Xiaoxiao's anxious expression, smiled faintly and patted her hand.
"Okay, Xiaoxiao, mother knows what you are worried about."
"To be honest, after so many years in the harem, even though many things are kept secret, everyone knows them in their hearts."
Ye Xiaoxiao: [There are some things you may not know.]
[Forget it, forget it. Since my mother has said so, I will just leave it alone for now.]
[At worst, we can ask the people at the Number One Manor to pay more attention. That way, Shangguan Lingyun will know about it.]
"What the Queen Mother said is true. It is the daughter-in-law who becomes confused due to her concern."
"I'm sorry to bother you, mother. I want to go see my two children, so I'll take my leave now."
The Queen Mother waved her hand, "Go, go."
"Your Majesty has arrived."
Before Ye Xiaoxiao stood up, the palace servants outside the door started to make loud announcements.
Ye Xiaoxiao looked at Shangguan Lingyun who was walking towards the door with some confusion.
[Didn't he leave? Why did he come back to my mother again?]
Shangguan Lingyun knew what Ye Xiaoxiao was thinking without touching her body.
"Xiaoxiao, are you planning to leave?"
Ye Xiaoxiao nodded, and Shangguan Lingyun smiled faintly.
"It's just right, I want to talk to you about something."
"Mother, please rest first. I will take Xiaoxiao away first."
The Queen Mother laughed angrily: "You child, you really have forgotten your mother now that you have a wife."
"Never mind, never mind. Mother is tired too. Please do as you please."
Ye Xiaoxiao's pretty face blushed at what the Queen Mother said, but she still followed Shangguan Lingyun away.
"My husband, what's the matter? You have to chase me to the Queen Mother's bedroom to talk. Look at the Queen Mother's eyes just now. How embarrassed she was."
Shangguan Lingyun didn't care.
"Why are you embarrassed? Seeing our affection, the Queen Mother is happy."
【I'm glad you did.】
"What do you want from me?"
Shangguan Lingyun directly pulled Ye Xiaoxiao towards the imperial study, and Ye Xiaoxiao was very puzzled.
"Why did you bring me here for no reason?"
Hearing the noise, Wang Xiao and Eunuch Yu immediately looked towards the entrance of the hall.
When Wang Xiao saw Ye Xiaoxiao and Shangguan Lingyun appear together, he almost laughed out loud.
Eunuch Yu was afraid that Shangguan Lingyun would be angry, so he didn't show much expression change, but he was already screaming wildly in his heart.
Ye Xiaoxiao happened to look up at Eunuch Yu, so every word of his thoughts fell into her ears.
[Alas, Your Majesty, although you don't say it, you actually long for the relationship between the Retired Emperor and the Empress Dowager.]
[Now that I have the Empress by my side, I no longer need to be hurt by Your Majesty's coldness.]
Ye Xiaoxiao: Air conditioning? What air conditioning?
No, what does my coming to the Imperial Study have to do with the Emperor and the Empress Dowager?
Before Ye Xiaoxiao could figure out what was going on, Wang Xiao and Eunuch Yu ran away at the same time.
"What's wrong with those two? Am I that scary? Why did they run away when they saw me?"
Shangguan Lingyun curled his lips, "How could Xiaoxiao be scary? Maybe they both had stomach upsets."
Wang Xiao: “…”
Eunuch Yu: “…”
Shangguan Lingyun ignored the two of them and pulled Ye Xiaoxiao to sit down together.
"What are you doing? Are you asking me to review the memorials with you?"
Shangguan Lingyun nodded seriously, and Ye Xiaoxiao's mouth twitched slightly.
"Isn't it said that the harem can't interfere in politics? This is inappropriate."
Ye Xiaoxiao didn't care about the fact that the harem couldn't interfere in government affairs, she simply didn't want to deal with these memorials.
Shangguan Lingyun understood her thoughts very well and pulled her into his arms.
"What are you afraid of? With my husband here, no one dares to say a word to you."
"What's more, if it weren't for your help from the No. 1 Manor in the World, how could I have ascended the throne so smoothly?"
"So, you deserve half the credit for the throne. Naturally, you also bear half the responsibility for handling state affairs."
Ye Xiaoxiao: [I don't believe you, you old man are so bad.]
Shangguan Lingyun: “…”
He is obviously a handsome and charming man, so why does he become an old man in front of Ye Xiaoxiao?
Shangguan Lingyun suddenly felt depressed when he thought about how she was thinking about little puppy brother and long-legged brother from time to time.
Ye Xiaoxiao didn't realize that her bad joke had made someone depressed.
"My husband is trying to be lazy, so just say it directly."
"I was a little puzzled as to why Wang Xiao wasn't by your side these past few days. It turns out you dragged him to read the memorials."
After Ye Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she picked up a memorial and took a look at it.
[Your Majesty, as you can see, since ancient times, there has never been an emperor who did not choose concubines. The royal bloodline is the most important. I, this old minister, earnestly implore Your Majesty to expand your harem and continue your lineage.]
