Bei Menlin left without even saying goodbye to Yi Mu.
When Yi Mu recovered from his illness, without Bei Menlin's help in dealing with the situation, the mountain of memorials almost buried him.
After dealing with the memorials, something else happened on the Sixteenth's side.
Princess Rouran spent all her time with Sixteen, eating and living together, and seeing almost the same people.
Gu Huai was a charming and talented man. Before he got engaged to Shi Liu, he was the number one love interest of Su Feng's unmarried daughters.
Princess Rouran and Sixteen played together, and inevitably came into contact with Gu Huai. Over time, she fell in love with Gu Huai.
Sixteen hadn't noticed her feelings until the date of her marriage to Gu Huai was set, when the princess suddenly confessed her love to her.
She also likes Gu Huai and hopes to marry into the Gu family together with Shi Liu.
Princess Rouran was the same age as Sixteen. She was innocent and adorable, without any guile. During the time Sixteen spent with her, they gradually developed a deep friendship.
A close friend suddenly tells you, "I've got my eye on your man."
Anyone in their right mind would be furious, but Sixteen, who had been pampered since childhood, couldn't stand this kind of treatment.
Just as Yi Mu recovered from his illness, the Queen fell ill.
After court, he made a detour to the Empress's palace, inquired about her well-being, and told the Empress's servants to fetch any precious medicinal herbs they needed from the storeroom.
The Empress has been living in a dream for the past two months.
First, Ye Yunxiang fell out of favor, and then the emperor suddenly became gentle with her. Ye Yunxiang was banished to the cold palace for making a mistake, and the emperor dismissed the harem, leaving only her.
Everything went according to her wishes, and even the Empress suspected that it was a miracle caused by the Bodhisattva's daily devout worship.
The Empress desperately wanted her husband to stay for a meal in the palace, but she was ill and worried that she might upset the Emperor again.
Seeing that Yi Mu was about to leave, she stood up and went along with it.
"Your Majesty still has state affairs to attend to. Please go back quickly and don't overwork yourself."
Yi Mu had been waiting for her to say that. He said a few more intimate words and then stood up.
Just as I reached the door, I saw Sixteen running towards me in the distance, completely disregarding his image.
This girl was already wild, and after being with Gu Huai, she became even more unruly.
Yi Mu deliberately put on a stern face, about to scold her.
When Sixteen got closer, she saw that her face was covered in tears.
"Your Majesty, you must do me justice!"
When Shiliu found out that Yimu was with the Empress, he thought that since his sister-in-law was a woman, she would definitely understand women's thoughts better than his brother, so he quickly brought people over.
Before Yi Mu had even left the Empress's palace, this happened, and now he couldn't leave even if he wanted to.
Sixteen recounted the whole story, emphasizing repeatedly that Gu Huai had never done anything inappropriate with Princess Rouran.
Yi Mu was completely confused. According to Sixteen, if the Rouran princess hadn't talked to Gu Huai much, how could she suddenly have fallen for him?
Is liking someone something so casual?
Even the Empress, who had been through similar experiences, couldn't fathom the princess's thoughts.
However, this matter concerns Sixteen's happiness for the rest of her life, so it cannot be taken lightly.
The Empress took on the matter, as Yi Mu, being a man, found it inconvenient to deal with such matters of personal feelings.
As the sixteenth prince's sister-in-law and the mother of the nation, the Empress has the right to know the details of the matter, both publicly and privately.
Since the matter was entrusted to the Empress, Yi Mu no longer took it to heart.
As the year draws to a close, various sacrificial activities need to be put on the agenda.
The most important aspect of royal sacrifices is communicating with Heaven and praying for favorable weather and abundant harvests in the coming year.
Hou Fang was always so busy that he was nowhere to be seen. Whenever I happened to see him, I could see that he had dark circles under his eyes, and he looked like he was overworked.
