When Su Jingyao woke up the next day, she opened her eyes in a daze and woke up alone from the dragon bed.
He slowly raised his eyes and looked around the Qianqing Palace, his eyes still somewhat confused and his expression dazed.
Oh, and she's grounded.
Thinking of this, Su Jingyao sighed softly.
Jun Zechen slept in a side hall last night.
Su Jingyao washed and dressed with the help of Miaoxia. Her eyes were a little dull, as if she was not fully awake yet. "What time is it now?" Su Jingyao asked lazily.
"It's almost 9:00 p.m., Master, would you like to have breakfast?"
Miaoxia answered while skillfully combing Su Jingyao's hair.
"His Majesty is in the imperial study? Has he had breakfast?" Su Jingyao asked casually.
"Eunuch Anshun said that His Majesty drank until very late last night and did not sleep for long. It was Eunuch Anshun who woke His Majesty up this morning. His Majesty was in a very bad mood. After leaving the court, he went to the Imperial Study to review memorials and refused to let anyone serve him."
Miaoxia had some worry on her face. A few days ago, she saw His Majesty and the master being so affectionate and sweet, so why did they suddenly start making trouble again?
Then he added: "I guess he didn't have breakfast."
Miaoxia didn’t know what happened between His Majesty and the Master, but it seemed as if His Majesty was more hurt?
She was terrified when she heard the sound of His Majesty smashing wine jugs in the east wing hall last night, but her master fell asleep heartlessly.
Miaoxia secretly glanced at Su Jingyao, her heart full of doubts.
There was a hint of helplessness on Su Jingyao's lips.
"Please prepare breakfast. I will have breakfast with Your Majesty."
After saying that, Su Jingyao stood up and prepared to go out.
However, when the palace maid outside the palace saw her trying to go out, she lowered her head and blocked her way tremblingly.
"Empress, His Majesty has ordered that you cannot leave the palace. You can tell this servant any instructions you have."
The palace maids were terrified. They, the palace maids in the Qianqing Palace, all knew how much His Majesty doted on the Empress. If the Empress insisted on going out, who could stop her?
Besides, there is no such thing as confining people to the Qianqing Palace.
Su Jingyao had a blank expression on her face. Was this bastard really confining her?
Okay, then I’ll put you under house arrest.
"Miaoyun, please bring me my breakfast. I will not go out. Then bring me all the affairs of the six palaces that I need to deal with today."
"Since Your Majesty has been confined to your house, I will obey Your Majesty's arrangements."
After saying that, Su Jingyao snorted coldly and turned back abruptly.
The weather has been hot recently and Su Jingyao doesn't like to walk around. Jun Zechen's bedroom is spacious and comfortable. What's more, she has lived here for almost the same amount of time as in Kunning Palace, so she has everything she needs.
She frowned, thinking to herself, she wanted to know how long he would keep her under house arrest.
On this day, the two of them, one in the imperial study and the other in the bedroom, each doing their own things, and everything was peaceful.
Only Anshun felt as if he was walking on thin ice; he could not stay in the imperial study for even a moment.
His Majesty gets angry easily. When Anshun went to persuade him to have a meal, as soon as he opened his mouth, he was sternly told to "get out".
The sound was like thunder, and Anshun trembled all over with fear.
The palace maid brought him tea. He took a glance at it and then complained that the water was too hot. His brows were furrowed and his eyes were full of anger.
After a while, he complained that there were not enough ice basins in the imperial study and that it was too hot, and his face looked terribly gloomy.
After a while, he felt that the smell of ambergris in the imperial study was too strong, and waved his hands irritably, as if everything around him made him extremely annoyed.
Jun Zechen couldn't vent the anger in his heart, so he could only focus all his attention on the memorial.
His eyes were focused and sharp, and he wrote every word with great effort, as if he wanted to pour all his anger into the memorial.
The speed of processing memorials today was much faster, and all the memorials were processed at Youshi.
"What is the Queen doing today?"
Jun Zechen asked, his voice without a trace of warmth, but his eyes revealed complex emotions.
"Your Majesty, the Queen has been staying in your bedroom today and has not come out."
Then Anshun thought about it and decided to tell her what happened this morning. Every time His Majesty and His Majesty quarreled, it was always His Majesty who coaxed His Majesty. Anshun felt that this time would be no exception.
"Your Majesty, when the Queen woke up this morning, the first thing she did was to show concern for you. Knowing that you had not had breakfast, she also asked Miaoxia to prepare breakfast and wanted to come to the Imperial Study to have breakfast with you."
Anshun spoke cautiously while observing Jun Zechen's expression.
"It's just that you have confined the queen to her house, and she can't come out, so you have to stop doing it."
Anshun only hoped that His Majesty would stop torturing himself. Punishing the Empress to confine her to the bedroom of the Qianqing Palace had no deterrent effect at all, and he himself was instead forced to live in a side hall.
Your Majesty, you are punishing yourself.
"Her Majesty is very worried about you, Your Majesty." Anshun persuaded earnestly.
Jun Zechen just couldn't accept that she didn't love him.
He just wanted to test whether she would feel sorry for him.
Jun Zechen has been looking for various reasons to convince himself. Maybe she was full of calculations at the beginning, but they have been together for so many years. Maybe she loves him. They have so many sweet moments and they have three children.
Could she really pretend to be affectionate to him for several years?
Jun Zechen stood up and walked towards the bedroom.
When the palace servants outside the bedroom saw His Majesty, they were about to salute, but Jun Zechen waved his hand to stop them. He walked in quietly.
I saw Su Jingyao half lying on the couch, leaning lazily, holding a book in her hand and flipping through it casually, looking very comfortable.
Miaoxia stood aside, and from time to time she would ask her master about the contents of the book, study it, and occasionally pick up a piece of fruit from the table next to her and feed it to her master.
