"Hmm." Emperor Dewu hummed softly, "I also guessed that you would come to talk about this matter."
Empress Xian lowered her eyes, "Your Majesty is wise."
Emperor Dewu's eyes fell on her, "I know what you are worried about."
"You think Xi'er is still young. If others knew that I had built the throne room for Xi'er, it would be bad for her, right?"
"yes."
Since His Majesty already knew what she was thinking, there was no need for her to hide it.
"Empress Xian, do you think that with Xi'er's talent, if I don't express my opinion, no one will want to harm her?"
It has been the case since ancient times that an innocent man is guilty of possessing a treasure.
Everyone can see that Xier is capable. Her intelligence has already made people fear and hate her. If he doesn't express his opinion, those people will probably be even more angry!
At this time, it was his statement that protected Xier.
He was telling those people that Xi'er was his future heir, the precious girl he held in his hands, who would dare to touch her?
Empress Xian was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head in shame, "It's just my kindness as a woman."
"No, you just feel sorry for Xi'er."
"You're not wrong to think that way."
Emperor Dewu's tone softened. "Care can lead to confusion. I believe that if you take a few days, you will understand these things."
"Your Majesty, once you've explained it, I understand." Concubine Xian knelt down and saluted. "Thank you, Your Majesty, for loving Xi'er so much. Having you is Xi'er's lifelong blessing!"
Emperor Dewu helped her up and said, "Please don't kneel before me. If Xi'er sees you, she will think I bullied you."
"You won't have to kneel to me anymore."
Empress Xian:? Huh?
Is there such a good thing?
"Yes." Empress Xian agreed quickly, fearing that he would be unhappy if she came back late.
After all, who wants to kneel down all day long?
She doesn't have to kneel to His Majesty, and there is no queen in the palace now, so she won't have to kneel to anyone in the future.
Comfortable!
Seeing that she looked like she wanted to leave, Emperor Dewu said, "Xi'er is still in your yard, right? Go back!"
"Don't keep Xi'er waiting for too long."
"I'll come see you in two days."
"Yes, thank you for your consideration, Your Majesty."
Empress Xian responded immediately and left.
Emperor Dewu: Haha, you really don’t want to stay at all!
It doesn’t matter!
I don't want to keep you either!
If I keep you here, you will have to share my dinner!
After listening to this song, he felt that he had made a profit!
When Empress Xian returned, Yuchi Xi had not woken up yet. She took the round fan and continued to fan her. Qiuxiang did not ask any more questions and went to ask the imperial kitchen to prepare food.
Qiuxiang went to call An Wanfeng over. When An Wanfeng saw Empress Xian, she immediately bowed. When she saw Yuchi Xi was also there, she understood why Empress Xian called her over.
Concubine Xian asked her to stand up and asked her to help Xi'er feel her pulse. An Wanfeng helped her feel her pulse and said with a smile, "Some time ago, the emperor asked me to examine Her Royal Highness the Little Princess!"
"Your Highness the little princess is fine!"
"Don't worry, Empress Xian."
"As long as you eat well, little princess, you will grow taller."
"Eat more nutritious food."
"Okay." Empress Xian finally felt relieved when she heard her say that. "Thank you for the trouble you've made."
Qiuxiang handed her a purse, and An Wanfeng accepted it. "Thank you, Empress Xian. This is not hard work."
"This money... I thank Empress Xian on behalf of those refugees!"
She will accept the money, but she will not use it herself. She will use it to provide porridge to the refugees.
Empress Xian smiled softly, "Actually, it's okay for you to use this money yourself."
An Wanfeng shook his head. "My monthly salary is already enough to spend."
"How could I ask for these anymore? But since the refugees needed them, I shamelessly accepted them!"
It would be awkward for her not to accept the money, as it would seem like she was looking down on others.
It would not be a good idea to accept it, as she had such a good relationship with the little princess. After thinking it over, she decided to accept it and use it for the refugees. Then, she would distribute porridge in the name of Empress Xian, which would be considered a good deed for the Empress.
After An Wanfeng left, Concubine Xian sighed, "We have all grown up since we left the palace for a while, and Miss An has become more sophisticated than before."
But that's a good thing.
When living in this world, the only way to protect yourself is to be tactful.
Qiuxiang nodded, "Your Majesty, do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing?"
"It's a good thing."
Concubine Xian lowered her eyes to look at Xi'er, "The better the people around Xi'er grow, the more relieved I will be."
…
After waking up, Yuchi Xi had dinner with Empress Xian and told her about the interesting things she had encountered outside, which made Empress Xian laugh.
After finishing the meal, he took Concubine Xian to the back garden for a walk to help digest the food and appreciate the flowers.
"Look, Mom! My starling and I used to go in through here to pick flowers for fun."
Concubine Xian's lips twitched slightly, "These flowers were planted by the Empress Dowager..."
"Qiuxiang, quickly take note of these flowers and go find where you can buy some. Bring some back."
If the Empress Dowager is coming back, plant it before she comes back!
"Yes." Qiuxiang agreed and hurriedly checked what kind of flowers they were.
Oh my God, Her Royal Highness the Little Princess is so bold!
Yuchi Xi tilted his head, "Don't worry, mother. I will take full responsibility for my own actions. If the Empress Dowager blames me, I will let her spank me!"
Empress Xian laughed, "Mother is very happy that you are responsible, Xi'er, but you can't pick it next time!"
Yuchi Xi nodded obediently, "We haven't picked them since then!"
"Mother, why hasn't the Empress Dowager returned to the palace yet?"
