"What's wrong with you officials? You're always thinking about building connections. Do you really think the people above can't see through it?"
Luckily, I'm a sensible person.
Ruan Qingchen pursed her lips. "Your Majesty, this is the law of survival of the fittest. Everyone is creating their own environment for survival."
Chu Qingxuan thought about it carefully and realized that it really was true.
Chu Qingxuan stared at Ruan Qingchen with an air of seriousness and said, "I think the Imperial Advisor makes a lot of sense."
Ruan Qingchen: "..."
Ruan Qingchen was slightly taken aback, then said to Chu Qingxuan, "Your Majesty, you have overlooked one thing: you should return to the palace."
Chu Qingxuan pouted, "Fine, fine, since the Imperial Advisor doesn't welcome me, then I'll go back."
A strange light flashed in Ruan Qingchen's phoenix eyes, and then she said, "Your Majesty is joking."
"I'm not joking," Chu Qingxuan said calmly, then walked out.
Ruan Qingchen was slightly taken aback; Chu Qingxuan's words just now had a hidden meaning.
There was a hint of anger in his eyes.
His gaze was deep, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned. "Is that so?"
After Chu Qingxuan returned to the palace, Le Wuyou kept a close eye on her, following her everywhere no matter what happened, never letting her out of his sight.
Annoyed by being stared at, Chu Qingxuan looked up at Le Wuyou and said, "Wuyou, can you stay away from me?"
Chu Qingxuan's expression remained calm, but Le Wuyou was also adept at reading people's expressions. Beneath Chu Qingxuan's calm eyes, undercurrents surged, brewing anger.
For some reason, the Queen has been unable to control her temper since her return.
The sight of a pair of eyes staring at her sent a chill down her spine.
"His Majesty……"
Chu Qingxuan gazed at Le Wuyou and smiled, "Speak."
"You should attend court tomorrow."
Chu Qingxuan waved her hand, "Alright, I understand."
The next day at court, Li Wen seized the opportunity to promote promising young men to Chu Qingxuan. After listening calmly, Chu Qingxuan said in front of everyone, "Lord Li, I gave you face last time, but this time I can speak my mind."
"Lord Li, you should worry less about my marriage. What's wrong? Your son is about to get married and have children. Instead of worrying about your own son, you're concerned about my marriage. That's not right."
Chu Qingxuan smiled gently, but her eyes turned cold as she stared at Li Wen.
Li Wen was so frightened that he knelt down and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I was only doing this for Your Majesty's own good!"
"Shut up. If this happens again, you'll lose your official position."
"yes……"
Chu Qingxuan glanced at the civil and military officials in the court and said coldly, "Court adjourned."
After leaving the court, Chu Qingxuan rubbed her temples and thought to herself: Being an emperor is really tiring.
Li Wen was a veteran of two dynasties. Although he held a high official position, he was always overshadowed by a prime minister and a national advisor.
His elaborate scheme this time was not without ulterior motives.
After Chu Qingxuan warned Li Wen, Li Wen became much more restrained. The secret guards she sent to keep an eye on Li Wen returned and reported to Chu Qingxuan that he still kept those people around.
Chu Qingxuan frowned slightly, countless possibilities flashing through her mind.
Suddenly, I thought of someone: Chu Qingwan.
"Wuyou, go and send people to the imperial mausoleum to protect the eldest princess. Don't let anyone get close to her, understand?"
After this incident, Li Wen didn't dare to do anything to her, but that didn't mean he wouldn't scheme against Chu Qingwan.
Chu Qingwan is outside; it's the perfect time.
Just as Le Wuyou was about to leave, Chu Qingxuan stopped her and said, "When you go this time, take my decree with you."
Let Junzi Lin go with him.
