Jun Mochen and Chen Yan's wedding date was set very tight, as if someone was eager for this marriage to happen as soon as possible.
Those outside who didn't know the inside story thought that Jun Mochen couldn't wait to marry the beauty, so he arranged the wedding date so soon.
But unexpectedly, he was now sitting in his own palace with a bitter smile.
Jun Mochen understood that Chen Yan probably knew what he was thinking, so she was determined to marry him, and that was why she reached an agreement with the Queen.
Although he didn't understand why the queen, who had always disliked Chen Yan, suddenly changed her mind, his intuition told him that if it weren't for the queen's intervention, Chen Yan alone would probably not be able to convince the emperor.
However, what Jun Mochen didn't know was that in this matter, apart from himself, the emperor, the queen and Chen Yan all had the same intention.
Ever since he knew that Jun Mochen's feelings for Sang Liwan had not faded, the emperor, who had been just watching, completely switched sides and joined Chen Yan's camp.
No matter how much he dotes on Jun Mochen, he will not allow Jun Mochen to have any thoughts about Jun Moyi's princess.
In order to prevent his son from doing anything stupid, the emperor decided to arrange the marriage between him and Chen Yan as soon as possible.
Perhaps, once the two of them get married, Jun Mochen's inappropriate thoughts will gradually disappear.
Even if he didn't turn to ashes, if he wanted to take action against Jun Moyi and Sang Liwan, he would probably need Chen Yan's help in the future.
At this time, it would only be beneficial for him to pull Chen Yan to Jun Mochen's side.
It’s a pity that Jun Mochen is completely unaware of his father’s painstaking efforts, and is only concerned with the love between men and women.
Thinking of this, the emperor felt a little melancholy. He had originally been optimistic about his successor, but after seeing the recent events, he always felt a little uneasy about Jun Mochen.
I used to think he was still young, but now he is about to start a family, and he is still so short-sighted.
The emperor sighed deeply.
He walked slowly in the imperial garden.
Suddenly, I heard someone say "ouch" not far away.
The emperor was stunned. "Who's there?"
The rustling sound in the flowers disappeared, and then a palace maid came out from the corner, walked to the emperor with her head lowered, and knelt down to pay her respects.
The emperor stood with his hands behind his back on the gravel road, while the palace maid knelt in front of him, her knees on the raised cobblestones, her whole body looking fragile and slender.
"This servant pays respects to the Emperor."
The palace maid's voice was as pleasant as the singing of an oriole in a willow, and it instantly calmed the emperor's originally irritable mind.
He rubbed his fingers on the ring on his hand and narrowed his eyes. "Who are you?"
The little maid still lowered her head. "I am a maid sweeping the imperial garden. Today was my turn on duty, but I accidentally startled the emperor. I am guilty."
The palace maid sweeping the imperial garden?
A beautiful figure suddenly appeared in the emperor's mind.
Although he was drunk at the palace banquet that day, he vaguely remembered that the first person he saw in the imperial garden was a palace maid, not Xia Qinglu, with whom he later had physical contact.
But that day was too chaotic. Besides, it was a fact that he had cleared Xia Qinglu's name, so he could only give her a status and bring her into the palace. It would be a novelty for a while.
But this does not mean that the emperor did not know who he had his eyes on that day.
Now, when the emperor heard the words "palace maid sweeping the imperial garden", he gradually connected the person in front of him with the figure that he had gradually forgotten.
His heart was moved, but he said calmly: "Palace maid? What's your name?"
The little palace maid secretly raised her head and glanced at the emperor in front of her, then lowered her head as if she had been burned, but her ears were red, "Your servant Yu Shu."
The emperor looked at the little palace maid calmly, not missing her series of small movements, with a smile flashing in his eyes.
After a long moment, he said thoughtfully, "Yu Shu? That's a good name."
After the emperor finished speaking, he just looked at Yu Shu meaningfully, and without saying anything else, he walked straight forward.
Eunuch Li followed the emperor with his eyes lowered. When he passed by Yu Shu, his eyes flickered with emotion and his steps paused slightly, but he didn't say much.
The young eunuch following behind Eunuch Li clearly hadn't figured out what was going on. Curious, he took a few quick steps and caught up with Eunuch Li. He first glanced at the Emperor, who was striding ahead with his hands behind his back. Seeing that the Emperor wasn't paying any attention to them, he whispered, "Master, what does the Emperor mean by this?"
Hearing this, Eunuch Li chuckled: "What do you mean? Boy, be more alert in the future. That Miss Yushu is going to have great fortune."
After saying this, Eunuch Li left quickly.
The young eunuch was left standing there alone, feeling somewhat bewildered.
Great fortune?
What kind of fortune can be called a great fortune?
However, he soon understood.
In the bedroom, the queen was furious.
The teacup she casually threw away fell to the ground and shattered into pieces, with the hot tea inside still steaming.
For a moment, the entire palace was silent and no one dared to make a sound.
Even Nanny Chang waited until the Queen calmed down before slowly walking to her side and gently patting her chest to help her breathe more smoothly.
"My lady, please don't be too angry."
The queen was very upset, but when she saw that the person coming was Nanny Chang, she didn't say anything too harsh.
She looked at Nanny Chang, her face still filled with anger.
"Madame Chang, tell me, is the Emperor deliberately trying to slap me in the face? He, he doesn't take me, the Empress, seriously at all."
Nanny Chang tried to comfort her: "Your Majesty, how can you say that? How could the Emperor have such thoughts? You are the Emperor's first wife, and the Emperor still cares about you."
"Thinking about you?" The Queen snorted in her heart, not taking Nanny Chang's words to heart at all.
"If he really cared about me, why would he appoint a maid as a concubine at this time? The emperor is getting more and more confused as he gets older!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Nanny Chang immediately lowered her head.
This was what the queen said, but she, as a servant, could not bear to hear it.
The queen vented her anger and finally felt relieved. Just now, she almost felt like she was going to suffocate to death.
She raised her hand and touched the white porcelain teacup beside her, and asked softly, "Who is that palace maid?"
Nanny Chang had also heard about this matter, so she went to inquire about it before coming.
"I heard that this maid was the one on duty sweeping the Imperial Garden today, and somehow she was bumped into by the Emperor."
It's the Imperial Garden again.
