Chu Sangyue didn't care what the other party wanted to talk to him about; the key phrase he picked up was: "The new sect leader?"
The other party replied, "Yes, Yunshan recently changed its sect leader."
The first person Chu Sangyue thought of was Wan Ge. As the sect leader's only granddaughter, it must be her.
No! He couldn't face his wife directly; he was genuinely worried that Wan Ge would find out.
In the end, Chu Sangyue had a substitute take his place, while he left his palace through a secret passage.
In his haste, he didn't even change his clothes. But Chu Sangyue never expected that the current sect leader was not Wan Ge, though Wan Ge had indeed come to the palace.
She didn't go with the Queen to see her, but waited outside. Unexpectedly, while she was admiring the flowers, she was bumped into by a woman who then hugged her tightly.
Wan Ge didn't see the other person's face at first, but saw their clothes, which were embroidered with phoenix patterns, making their identity quite obvious.
But... why does it feel so familiar? So she looked up and saw the other person's stunningly beautiful face.
Chu Sangyue hadn't expected to meet her so directly, and the first thing she blurted out was, "My lady!"
"Ah Yue?" Wan Ge was a little confused! If the familiar aura was the first thing that came to mind, the familiar address and voice she used now confirmed it.
Startled, Chu Sangyue didn't even bother with her voice-changing technique, revealing her true voice.
"Wait a minute!" Wan Ge released Chu Sangyue from in front of her, staring at him with a scrutinizing look in her eyes.
Chu Sangyue originally wanted to struggle and make excuses, but... she had already been exposed, so there was nothing to argue about. She could only stand there obediently, not daring to say a word.
"You? What are you doing here dressed like this? You..." Although the idea was a bit bold, Wan Ge felt it wasn't impossible: "Is it the Empress?"
Chu Sangyue nodded gently, nervously clutching her sleeve: "My lady... I didn't mean to lie to you, I just... I just..."
He just didn't know how to say it, and he understood that these kinds of things were difficult to talk about.
Wan Ge recalled her past life as a woman disguised as a man and serving as the crown prince. She really didn't know how to tell him, and because of the burden of her identity, she subconsciously kept it a secret.
"It's okay, I understand," Wan Ge said softly.
Hearing her calm tone, Chu Sangyue felt a chill in her heart. Was her mistress disappointed in him? Did she hate him? Did she want a divorce? No! "Mistress, please don't be angry. You can punish me however you want, just please don't divorce me, okay?"
When Wan Ge heard the word "divorce," she was stunned. When had she ever said such a thing? And she wasn't even angry. Didn't she say that she could understand?
"Silly boy." Wan Ge grabbed his collar and pulled him close, then kissed his lips.
Chu Sangyue blushed immediately after being kissed, and only then did Wan Ge release her: "I'm not angry. I can understand why you hid it from me. You are my husband, and I won't be angry with you."
"Really?" Chu Sangyue asked cautiously, but her hand still nervously gripped Wan Ge's hand.
"Of course." Wan Ge touched his face, then looked at Chu Sangyue, who was dressed as an empress, and suddenly remembered something: "Since you're here now, who is my aunt meeting?"
