"How have you been lately, Brother Mu?"
"The same as before, where's Brother Lin?"
"Sigh, same here. I don't dare to speak because of His Majesty's recent behavior."
"Indeed, His Majesty is becoming more and more dignified."
...
"Hey, did you see anyone arrive in a horse-drawn carriage today?"
"You saw it too?" A younger official in a blue robe looked up and asked curiously. He thought he had seen it wrong this morning. After all, even the powerful officials who had served three emperors, such as Aobai and Suo'etu, did not have this privilege. Who was this extraordinary person who could ride in a carriage to court?
As for whether someone made the carriage without permission, he knew with his own eyes that it was impossible. Did you think the imperial guards at the gate were easy to mess with?
"I thought I was seeing things! After all, even Lord Suo'etu didn't..." When Lord Suo'etu's name was mentioned, the young official's voice clearly softened, and he lacked confidence.
The official listening to him clearly understood what he was about to say, and he said in a low voice, "Perhaps one of those officials has gained His Majesty's favor."
Thinking of this, the official in the green robe glanced discreetly at Grand Secretary Suo'etu of the Hall of Preserving Harmony, who was standing in the distance with a graying beard, and dared not speak again.
After all, these officials were implicitly supporting several princes. If any of them were to break His Majesty's favor, it might imply something else, which was not something these minor officials should concern themselves with.
However, he also had some doubts in his heart. After all, he had seen the carriage from afar, so how come he had arrived now, but the person who had been riding in the carriage had not yet arrived?
Others also had the same questions to varying degrees.
Qingyin, who was being watched by her colleagues, was indeed quite unlucky. Sitting in the carriage, Qingyin heard the sounds of children fighting. Seeing her father-in-law's panicked and pleading expression, she stopped the carriage.
The two children pulled and slapped each other, their tempers flaring up. They argued and fought fiercely, their faces flushed. The little girl, her hair a mess, grabbed the little boy's arm and said angrily, her face red, "Yinmi, you're the younger brother. Boys should give way to their older sisters. You even broke my doll. Father will definitely punish you."
Compared to the little girl's anger, the little boy, who was half a head smaller than her, looked visibly guilty for a second before straightening up his back with righteous indignation. However, because he ate too well every day, his waistline wasn't very prominent. He grabbed the little girl's hair and said angrily, "I didn't do it on purpose! If you like that tattered doll, I'll just give you another one. You're bullying the little one now. Father Emperor won't punish me; he'll punish you, you bad sister!"
As soon as Qingyin stepped off the carriage and heard these words, she knew she was in trouble. It was obvious that the little girl was furious when she heard this, and she bit the little boy's chubby arm. The little boy cried out in pain and grabbed his sister's hair tightly.
Hearing the commotion, Qingyin rushed forward to stop an even more tragic event. The voices of the two children clearly indicated that they were the princess and prince of the palace. However, she wondered why they were not accompanied by palace maids and eunuchs. She guessed that it was probably a conspiracy by some people.
Qingyin held one child in each hand, separating the two children by a safe barrier.
The two little brats, who had just been really angry, had clearly forgotten what had happened. They stared wide-eyed at the big brother who had suddenly appeared.
Don't assume that children don't understand aesthetics. Children are actually more easily attracted to visual beauty, especially children in the palace who are remarkably precocious, and thus better able to understand this unparalleled beauty.
The two children stopped crying and stared intently at Qingyin, especially the chubby little boy, whose fair and clean round face had a suspiciously shiny spot at the corner of his mouth. The pretty little girl on the other side also followed closely behind Qingyin, as if she wanted to press her face against his to see him clearly.
Qingyin, who had just been trying to calm the two children down and resolve their conflict, now felt like a piece of fragrant braised pork on a chopping board, while the two children were like hungry diners, eager to devour her.
