Xiao Yi grunted a few times in dissatisfaction and then fell silent.
It was so quiet around her that Yun Qingluo fell asleep after staring blankly for a while.
When Mo Beichen finished his work and came to find Yun Qingluo, he found that Yun Qingluo was already sleeping soundly.
Mo Beichen stood at the head of the bed, looking at the lovely girl who hadn't put on any makeup, and bent down to cover her with the blanket.
He knelt on one knee, gazing at Yun Qingluo's beautiful face.
Luo Luo, I'm very happy today.
Thinking of Yun Qingluo's forehead wound, Mo Beichen stood up and walked out quietly.
Yun Tao and Yun Xin stood guard at the entrance.
After Mo Beichen saw Mo Feng and Mo Yu close the door, he asked in a low voice, "Has Luo Luo had dinner yet?"
Yun Tao bowed and replied, "Your Majesty, after the Empress returned and washed and bathed, she went to sleep, saying she would get up to eat after a while. But when I went to call her, I saw that she was sleeping very soundly, so I couldn't bear to wake her."
Mo Beichen nodded and then asked, "Has Luo Luo's forehead injury been treated?"
Yun Tao bowed her head and replied, "Your Majesty, the Empress applied the medicine after her bath. The medicine was sent from the Valley of Divine Physicians, so it should be quite effective."
Mo Beichen lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then turned back to look at the tightly closed gatehouse.
He carefully instructed, "Have the kitchen prepare porridge for Luo Luo to drink when she wakes up."
Besides, Luo Luo is the only one in my harem, so there's no need for so much formality. Let's keep it the same as when she was in the Prince's residence, otherwise Luo Luo won't feel comfortable."
"Yes, Your Majesty," Yun Tao and Yun Xin bowed and replied.
Watching Mo Beichen's departing figure, Yun Xin felt very happy. The Emperor was so good to the Empress.
When the emperor ascended the throne and proclaimed it to the world, he stated in his imperial edict that he would only have Empress Yun Qingluo in his harem for the rest of his life, and that he would no longer hold a selection of concubines or take any more.
There are probably many versions of the folk tales now.
Yunxin pondered to herself that she would ask someone to buy some more another day and bring them back to show the Princess Consort, or rather, the Empress.
Yunxin felt somewhat annoyed.
Yun Tao turned around and saw that Yun Xin looked unhappy. She asked, "What's wrong? Wasn't what the Emperor just said good news?"
Yunxin stomped her foot and said angrily, "Ugh, that's not what bothers me."
Yun Tao widened her eyes slightly, "Then what's bothering you?"
Yunxin said softly in annoyance, "Yuntao, why am I so stupid? The princess is already the empress, but I still can't get it right."
Upon hearing Yun Xin's words, Yun Tao grinned and said, "So that's what happened."
Think of it this way: Every day you see such a large and magnificent palace, tell yourself this is the imperial palace, and you should address the Empress. Before you speak, think it through in your mind, and you'll correct your pronunciation.
"This is the palace, so we have to call her Empress. Hmm, it seems to be somewhat effective. Everything here is quite unfamiliar, and I feel very uncomfortable. This palace is so huge! The palaces are so far apart!" Yunxin said, distressed.
Yun Tao comforted her, "Alright, anyway, we don't go to the Empress Dowager's place very often."
I heard that after the New Year, the Empress Dowager will be going out of the palace to worship Buddha, so Her Majesty the Empress won't need to pay her respects, and we won't have to travel such a long distance with her.
Yunxin was excited. "Really? That's great! Luckily, the Emperor and Empress's palaces are close to each other, otherwise it would have been a long walk."
Yun Tao nodded, "However, I think it will be the Emperor who visits the Empress more often in the future, because the Emperor won't want our Empress to suffer."
"That makes sense." Yunxin nodded thoughtfully.
The palace maid came over. "What are you whispering about? Go to the kitchen and see if the porridge is warm. Did you ignore what the Emperor just said?"
Although His Majesty said there was no need for excessive formalities, we must not let the Emperor's favor extend to our own affairs and make us forget our place. Go quickly.
"Yes, Granny, we understand." Yunxin and Yuntao curtsied and left side by side.
Granny Gong laughed and scolded, "You're still too young."
“It’s good to be young; it makes this lifeless palace lively.” The speaker was Chief Steward Wu Wentao.
Steward Wu was someone Mo Beichen found from who-knows-where; he was a highly skilled imperial guard.
Yun Qingluo felt that placing her in her palace was a waste of her talents, but Chief Steward Wu said that he had known about Yun Qingluo for a long time, admired her greatly, and wanted to be with her.
Yun Qingluo couldn't tell whether he was just being polite or speaking from the heart, so she stayed for the time being.
Since men were not allowed in the harem, Steward Mo had to stay in the Prince's mansion to guard the old residence.
Yun Qing felt that he was too lonely and had been wanting to bring him to the palace. Moreover, he missed his child very much.
She already has her own bodyguards, so she doesn't need to make a difference if she has Butler Mo.
Moreover, the harem is entirely composed of Mo Beichen and her people; there are no outsiders, and the guards are tight, so there's no fear of being discovered.
Besides, even if they find out, it's no big deal; a clear conscience fears no accusation.
When Yun Qingluo woke up, it was already midnight. Just as she tried to move, she felt her waist being restrained.
"Awake?" A deep, husky voice sounded from behind, still groggy from just waking up.
Yun Qingluo gently lifted Mo Beichen's hand and turned to face him.
"Ah Chen, did I wake you up?" Yun Qingluo said, a little embarrassed.
Mo Beichen was not satisfied with the distance between himself and Yun Qingluo, so he reached out and pulled her into his arms before finally squinting his eyes in satisfaction.
He replied in a deep, magnetic voice, "No, I just got back and haven't fallen asleep yet."
Yun Qinglu frowned and sighed, "Being the emperor is so busy, but I think that other guy is very leisurely. He's always trying to cause trouble for us. I've thought about fighting him many times, but luckily I'm well-mannered."
Hearing Yun Qingluo's complaint, Mo Beichen curled the corners of his lips and asked leisurely, "Hmm, it's fortunate that our Luoluo is well-mannered."
Yun Qingluo felt a little shy after hearing Mo Beichen's words.
Actually, it's not that good; she might poison someone.
But it's not bad either, at least he received higher education.
She can curse without using any swear words.
Xiao Yi yawned and said in a muffled voice, "Why are you so excited in the middle of the night? Oh, so you're with your husband."
Yun Qingluo was slightly surprised. "Xiao Yi, you can yawn? Has the system been upgraded?"
Xiao Yi scoffed, "When I was developing this butler, at least it had an automatic upgrade feature, okay? Oh right, I can even yawn now. I was just too tired, so I took a nap and didn't do anything."
Yun Qingluo wondered to herself, could it be that the system really does upgrade without her noticing?
"Is it related to your recent research and development?" Yun Qingluo asked telepathically.
At this moment, Mo Beichen suddenly spoke up, "Luo Luo, why are you spacing out again?"
Yun Qingluo snapped out of her daze and found a comfortable position in Mo Beichen's arms. "I was just looking at my system."
"system?"
Yun Qingluo nodded and explained earnestly, "Yes, it's the treasure I mentioned to you before. It's called the system, and there's a butler inside..."
Yun Qinglu pondered for a moment, then continued to explain, "Well, it's similar to Butler Mo, who manages all sorts of affairs in the Prince's Mansion. The butler in the system also helps me manage everything in the system."
