His successful ascension to the throne was inseparable from his father's support. Even after his rebirth, if he wants to continue on the throne, he will still need his father.
Xie Zhou hasn't yet considered killing his father and usurping the throne; he's still far from that goal.
The Emperor's reward to Lady Pei was naturally for his sake, Xie Zhou glanced at Lady Pei.

Now it's the Empress's turn.
The air suddenly became quiet.
He glanced at Dong Shi, his brows furrowing slightly. What was he planning to do now?

So she said to the Emperor, "An empress only listens to half of what is said, or a little bit, and then relies on her own abilities. If she were a local official, how many injustices would she cause?
