The next day, when Guan Zhiyue woke up, her voice was hoarse. She had drunk too much alcohol the night before and didn't feel well.
"You shameless fool!"
Hearing the shouts at the door, Bilian quickly pushed the door open and went in. Looking at Guan Zhiyue sitting on the bed, she said, "Your Majesty, you've finally woken up!"
"water."
Bilian quickly brought the water she had prepared to Guan Zhiyue and said, "It's been prepared for a long time, just waiting for you to wake up."
"Your Majesty has already gone to court. Before leaving, he instructed me to take good care of Her Majesty!"
Guan Zhiyue took a big gulp of water from her glass, wiped her mouth, and said, "Nothing happened last night, right?"
"My head feels like it's splitting open," Guan Zhiyue said, pressing her head.
Bilian said, "Nothing happened, but last night Your Majesty and the Emperor went back to your room arm in arm."
"No servants are allowed to serve you. I don't know the specifics."
Guan Zhiyue was shocked to hear this. "Really? This is outrageous! How could I have done something so shameful?"
"Oh, what else did I do?"
"Is there anything else? I don't think so."
Bilian shook her head and said, "I don't know the specifics, but I imagine there are more, right?"
Guan Zhiyue instantly felt like the whole world was about to collapse! This was absolutely terrifying, why was this happening!
Guan Zhiyue shook her head, utterly incredulous. What heinous thing had she done last night? Why did she feel nothing at all? Where was her memory?
Where did it go? Was it covered up by the alcohol? Or was it eaten by the dog?!
"Your Majesty, what are you doing?"
"Do you want to get up now?"
Bilian looked at her empress, who was sitting on the bed with a blank expression. She didn't know what she was thinking, but she didn't say anything or move, giving people a very resentful feeling.
Guan Zhiyue is completely bewildered. What's going on?!
"Ah, oh! Get up! Get up! After all, we still have things to do later." Guan Zhiyue turned her head to look at Bilian and said.
Bilian nodded and said, "Then this servant will help Your Highness get up!"
Guan Zhiyue nodded blankly, saying nothing more, and could only agree.
"Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. Since it's already happened, I'll just pretend I have amnesia. Anyway, I can't remember it."
Guan Zhiyue got up from the bed, patted her head, and muttered to herself.
Bilian stared at Guan Zhiyue for a long time, still wondering what her mistress was up to.
All I know is that her mistress is doing something strange, hitting her own head and shaking her head and sighing.
——
In the Imperial Study, Li Qiji recalled what happened last night, and it was incredibly satisfying. It was the first time Guan Zhiyue had taken the initiative to kiss him, and she even said she wanted to be with him forever.
It made him feel incredibly happy, and he wished time could stand still at that moment.
Hua Quan looked at his emperor, who had a faint smile on his lips since this morning. He had never seen his emperor so expressive.
He used to have an icy expression, as if someone owed him millions of taels of silver, giving off a sense of distance. Now, what distance? There's no distance at all.
He's just a big, silly guy.
"Your Majesty, you haven't paid your respects to the Empress Dowager yet!" Hua Quan reminded him.
Li Qiji seemed to have thought of something, and then said, "I understand. I will go after I finish this matter."
Hua Quan: "..." This servant has reminded you at least five times, and you're still not done?
Ji Wu, standing to the side, said nothing, simply holding a sword and watching the show. He was naturally slow-witted, so he wouldn't ask any questions, and asking wouldn't be right either, lest he get scolded.
"Ji Wu, go to Tianji Star and see if you've gotten the intelligence I asked for?" Li Qiji said to Ji Wu, who was standing beside him.
Ji Wu didn't say anything, quickly clasped his hands in greeting and left, leaving only Hua Quan standing there holding his whisk.
However, Guan Zhiyue, who was in the Cold Palace, had already packed her things and was preparing to submit her written plan and other documents.
I took everything out and looked through it all to see if anything was missing or incorrect.
Furthermore, she wanted to help Li Qiji build an unshakeable kingdom. She thought of the original owner's father and older brothers, who had not been by her side since childhood and had been hastily married off as soon as they grew up.
She spent very little time with her family, so much so that she knew nothing about them, and they knew nothing about her either.
The root cause of all this was the war. She thought that if the war hadn't broken out, her family wouldn't have had to leave their homeland, and her compatriots in Nanding wouldn't have had to leave their homes either.
There will be no separation of life and death.
Guan Zhiyue took the plan in her hand, looked it over several times, and thought it was feasible, so she closed the plan.
Bilian, who was standing nearby, asked, "Your Highness, what is this?"
Why do you do it this way?
"And this servant feels that he seems quite powerful!"
Bilian looked at the plan in Guan Zhiyue's hand. Although she couldn't understand it, she felt it was very impressive and admired her empress very much.
Especially now that her empress not only produces high yields of grain, she can also create things that she has never seen or heard of before.
Just like the "birthday cake" I made yesterday, it tasted really delicious!
It's absolutely delicious!
"Your Highness, where are you going?" Bilian was cleaning up when she saw Guan Zhiyue carrying that booklet and walking towards the door.
Guan Zhiyue waved the object in her hand and said, "Go find the Emperor!"
"Only the Emperor can work together to make this happen."
Bilian quickly followed, and the two of them headed towards Li Qiji's study.
She needs to get this done quickly, otherwise it will drag on for a long time.
The Imperial Study.
"Your Majesty the Empress has arrived!"
The eunuch's announcement at the door reached the imperial study, and Li Qiji, who was busy at work, immediately raised his head and looked towards the door.
"Yue'er, what brings you here? Is something wrong?" Li Qiji immediately pounced on Guan Zhiyue like a lapdog, giving off a very fawning feeling.
Guan Zhiyue glanced up at him, and found it inexplicably funny.
"I do have something to say, but don't scare me like that!" Guan Zhiyue handed the plan to Li Qiji and said calmly.
Li Qiji took the plan from his hand and flipped through it. He was utterly shocked. He had never imagined that things could be done in this way. It turned out that it was really possible!
I don't know if they'll be able to find that "asphalt," or if the "medical center" he's about to build will even be established.
Everything felt so stunning; it was simply perfect.
"Yue'er, can we achieve all of what you wrote above? If so, what will our Nan Ding Kingdom look like in the future?" Li Qiji was filled with nothing but amazement.
Guan Zhiyue smiled and said, "What I want is to develop commercial wealth, open the country's doors to innovation, and together we will welcome the new Nanding Kingdom."
For a moment, everyone in the imperial study looked at Guan Zhiyue and looked forward to the future with her.
