Su Guo tilted her head, looking at the group of old friends across age and time, and felt inexplicably amused.
"I thought Lord Wei would come to discuss the Imperial Guards. If you just want to catch up, then forget it. Today is my first day temporarily handling state affairs on behalf of His Majesty, so I may not have time to reminisce with you."
Just then, they heard a knock on the door. They sighed softly, their tone softening with a hint of helplessness.
"I'm afraid that after I finish recounting the past, tomorrow the entire internet will be filled with my idle talk. I'm just a country girl, and I'm just lucky."
A hint of heartache flickered in Wei Ming's eyes; this was his daughter. "How could this be?" He looked at the newly arrived female official with hostility in his eyes.
The female official felt a chill run down her spine; she seemed to have said or done nothing wrong.
"Your Highness, these are the documents you need to handle today." The lady-in-waiting reported that they were all routine matters, a very thin stack, which was nothing compared to the amount of work Su Chen handled every day.
Having served in the palace for many years, Wei Ming naturally knew that this was because the people in the cabinet did not trust Su Guo, so they initially only intended to deceive her.
If Su Guo were to succeed to the throne and rule in her own right, he himself had not allowed Su Chen to bear him a son or daughter, but Su Guo was his daughter and the new heir to the empire. How could he be treated with such disrespect? Thinking of Su Guo's words just now, he didn't even dare to reminisce.
"presumptuous!"
Wei Ming immediately lost his temper, and the female official looked at him, somewhat confused, "Lord Wei, please calm down!"
Wei Ming picked up the document, glanced at it, and sure enough, it was all trivial matters. He threw the document at the female official and said, "Is this how you try to fool Princess Lan? She is the Empress's heir and is temporarily acting as Empress. I don't care what the Cabinet thought of. If you continue to make a fuss over such trivial matters, my Imperial Guard will be the first to object."
Su Guo lowered her head, a slight smile playing on her lips. She stood up, helped up the bowing, bewildered female official, and looked at Wei Ming with a reproachful tone, "Uncle Wei, what are you doing? Even if you and my mother were acquainted before, the decisions of the Grand Secretaries must still be obeyed. The female official is merely following orders."
He patted the female official on the back and said, "This is none of your business. You can go back now."
As she spoke, she bent down to pick up the scattered documents on the ground. Wei Ming also helped her. The female official tried to step forward, but was glared at by Wei Ming and ran away.
When only Wei Ming and Su Guo were in the room, Wei Ming became increasingly dissatisfied to see that Su Guo was actually reviewing these trivial matters. This was his child, who was destined to inherit the throne; how could she only be doing such trivial things?
Why not resist?
Su Guo looked at Wei Ming with a blank expression in her eyes, "Why resist? If these things are done well, they are also achievements. Is it only when we attack a planet that the Empress should do these things?"
Wei Ming looked at Su Guo for a long time, and the past events came to mind more and more. "You are indeed as kind as your mother. Don't worry, if it's yours, I will definitely help you get it back."
Without waiting for Su Guo to speak, he turned and left. Seeing him leave, Su Guo put down the red pen in her hand, opened the contact in her wrist brain, and called the uncle over. She needed to rest for a while, and the uncle could take care of these small things.

He Yu arrived uninvited and exchanged glances with Lu Yuanhong.
Gu Chen was preparing tea, wondering what the two of them were up to. This young master of the He family was so quiet.
