Cheng'en Hall.
Huan Yue sat lazily on the throne.
That was really exhilarating.
This is much more comfortable than a sofa or anything like that.
Sofas may not always be made of such high-quality materials, nor may they always be maintained with such meticulous care.
As the Crown Princess of the Great Zhao, during a time of national strength, her privileges were indescribable.
For example, a large number of treasures were moved into her warehouse, and Chaoyun and the eunuchs were so busy that they were covered in sweat. They didn't see the pile of treasures, but they were sweating profusely in the late autumn. And this was just this one time.
Chaoyun was finally able to catch her breath and brought the list to show the Empress.
Huan Yue didn't really want to look at them; he had too many treasures and was just being difficult.
However, she looked at the few boxes that had just been brought over and showed them to her.
The official replied, "We only found it in a corner after everything was moved."
Huan Yue said, "Did you check carefully if there was any silver in the rat hole? Although the rest belongs to Princess Yongmu."
The eunuch laughed and said, "I don't know about the rat hole, but there are some buried in the back garden..."
The dead bodies have been cleared away. Princess Yongmu wouldn't care about the little silver buried with them.
Huan Yue looked at the box; it was from overseas.
There are many people from the Zhao state and other ethnic groups; basically, anyone outside this land is considered an outsider. It's hard to say who is more special.
This has led to a superficial view that foreign tribes have always been like this, for thousands of years.
This way of thinking isn't wrong, but sometimes a small difference can lead to a huge error. We must remain vigilant about many things we take for granted.
For example, you might think it's a cold, but you don't know it's a serious virus.
The cat brought over the tea and stared at it from the side. The box was sealed tightly and couldn't be opened.
Huan Yue glanced at her. Was there something her mistress couldn't break?
Cat thought so too; if the Empress exerted force, the box would be ruined.
Huan Yue wasn't that violent.
Her eyes lit up; she remembered there was a particularly exquisite box, so elaborately decorated.
So she just pushed it around and tried it out.
The cat heard a clicking sound, not a sound of destruction, and then it saw the corners of the box moving and the surface changing.
Huan Yue also found it quite interesting. He didn't know when the Rubik's Cube came about, but anyway, this was the Rubik's Cube.
The eunuch also came over to take a look. After a series of actions, the box was opened.
Huan Yue looked inside and saw that it resembled a parchment scroll; when he took it out, it was still a complete box.
She turned the box around to look at it, then handed it to the eunuch: "Let's see if it can be restored?"
The eunuch carefully took it, completely bewildered. What did "restoration" mean?
Huan Yue ignored it and opened the parchment scroll in his hand.
It's quite large when you open it.
The cat helped carry it to one side.
Huan Yue looked at it, wondering if it really was a treasure map?
The entire piece was about five feet long and three feet wide, and the words on the label were unfamiliar to her, as was the place.
Even with the same effort as preparing for the college entrance exam, Huan Yue still couldn't understand it, so he wisely gave up.
There are many people in charge in the Zhao state. Fold this up carefully, and it will still be presented to the emperor.
"Ah!" the eunuch cried out.
Huan Yue looked at him and asked, "What's wrong?"
The eunuch showed the Empress the blade that had sprung out; it was incredibly sharp!
Huan Yue took the box. This wooden box was meant to be self-destructed with a blade? She preferred another use: waterproofing.
Could it become a drifting box if thrown into the sea? Could it float from 500 years in the future back to 500 years in the past?
The cat hurriedly reminded her, "Your Majesty, be careful!"
Huan Yue nodded, wiped his hands with a towel, drank his tea, and continued to work on the Rubik's Cube.
It shouldn't be the legendary Pandora's Box. What was it for? It's not in the May 3rd textbook.
There are many things that everyone is familiar with but overlooks. Anyway, it's not her fault, but Huan Yue just makes trouble.
Di Baose, come here.
Huan Yue glanced at her. "Is the dress ready?"
"How could it be that fast?" Di Baose, tired from working, came out for a stroll and sat down in the audience to drink tea, gossiping as she asked, "Have you heard?"
"What's up?" Huan Yue didn't stop, flicking out another razor blade.
It's as thin as a razor, and the craftsmanship is quite good.
Di Baose glanced at it, uninterested, but more interested in gossip: "Chen Fengnu is going to cultivate Taoism to pray for her stepmother and the Great Zhao. That's why she's asking to annul the engagement."
Huan Yue looked up at her, surprised.
Di Baose was proud, and probably no one was not surprised: "Although praying for blessings is definitely a lie, no one can say for sure, right?"
Huan Yue said, "Chen Fengnu didn't cause any trouble?"
Di Baose said, "That would require a lot of trouble. It should be said that You Shi didn't cause any trouble, and Chen Ke, as the legal mother, is a very filial son. Now there are many people praising Chen Ke, Chen Yin, and Chen Shi. If this is done for three years, it will be just like the real thing."
Huan Yue said, "As long as this is maintained, it's hard for others to say anything. They can only say that Meng didn't enjoy it while she was alive."
Di Baose sneered, "Pei Su's death was undeserved, but Meng Shi's was far more worthwhile. She's erected the best memorial arch for the Chen family. If You Shi were to become the official wife later, wouldn't she be the most virtuous woman in Sheng'an? A blessing in disguise?"
Huan Yue said, "There's nothing to be angry about. There are plenty of injustices in the world."
Di Baose nodded.
Chen Zuo is a formidable man.
Chen Kuang was also formidable.
Once things calm down and the situation with the Chen family is under control, dealing with this matter won't be difficult.
This is similar to why they aren't in a hurry to favor concubines over their wives. Because it doesn't affect them much.
No one cares about right or wrong, only about interests.
Di Baose was furious: "Aren't you afraid Chen Fengnu will cause trouble?"
Cat interjected, "Just have a few people keep an eye on her."
Di Baose nodded.
Don't let yourself be manipulated by those around you too much. Since the Chen family has the ability, they shouldn't be unable to deal with Chen Fengnu.
However, Di Baose said, "The You family is quite willing to go all out."
Huan Yue replied, "If I hadn't been willing to go all out, would I have been so shameless back then?"
Di Baose nodded, thinking for a moment: "Perhaps this is how Chen Fengnu was taught? As long as the Chen family's situation improves, we can find another way to handle this. Anyway, let them say what they want."
Huan Yue nodded: "That family is all formidable; they didn't just sit idly by and wait to die."
Di Baose's eyes lit up: "Is it because they're both powerful? The first and second wives are going to fight! Compared to the second wife, Chen Ke recognizing his stepmother doesn't seem so important. She was already his stepmother, and this recognition can actually be touted as filial piety."
Huan Yue nodded.
Those who don't make mistakes should be praised; making mistakes is normal.
If Lady You were willing to swallow her pride and tell Lady Meng everything, she might even garner some sympathy.
They think she's had a tough time all these years, so they just compete to see who's more shameless.
Being a mistress is not easy, and being a virtuous mistress is not morally right.
Princess Yongmu came over.
Seeing that her expression was off, Di Baose asked, "What's wrong with your mother again?"
Princess Yongmu went to Fucui Palace to see Lady Cui. As for Di Baose, the princess didn't care: "She talked about Chen Yin with me for a while."
Di Baose stared in disbelief: "Is your mother even thinking straight?"
The Chen family isn't part of the Dong family's faction?
The Cui and Dong families seem rather strange.
Huan Yue chimed in with a sarcastic remark: "A son of a concubine who favors his concubine and destroys his wife's family dares to covet the princess! Will he do it again, favoring his concubine and destroying his wife?"
Di Baose nodded frantically!
Those people didn't care about Princess Yongmu's reputation? Wasn't Princess Shang after her?
Once they get the benefits, they might not be any better than He Yuzhi.
