Chapter 97: Court Affairs



Your Majesty is not the type of person who is willing to be constrained by others.

Su Jingyao frowned and asked, "Ye family?"

Su Jingxuan nodded.

"Then why doesn't Your Majesty honor Concubine Ye? Wouldn't it make the Ye family more wary of Your Majesty if You neglect Concubine Ye so much now?" Su Jingyao looked puzzled, her brows furrowed even tighter, with confusion in her eyes.

"Dad said that His Majesty has secretly sent a number of imperial envoys to various cities. I think during this period of time, Concubine Ye may be favored." Su Jingxuan said with a serious expression.

"During the past few days of spring hunting, the Ye family has also been very 'glorious'."

When Su Jingxuan said this, he looked at Su Jingyao deeply, and there seemed to be a different deep meaning in his eyes.

Su Jingyao naturally understood that Jun Zechen was starting to flatter him. He had only been on the throne for about half a year, but he had already made such a big move. Wasn't he afraid of backlash from the court officials?

Forget it, he is the male lead and he always has some halo around him.

Afterwards, Su Jingyao continued to chat with her brother for a long time. When her brother left, she asked Miaoyun to give her brother the gift she had prepared. After all, the most important thing must not be forgotten.

The time of spring hunting passed by in a flash like the sand in an hourglass.

After returning to the palace, Su Jingyao felt a lot more relaxed.

So far, there have been no worrisome problems with Concubine Chu's pregnancy, and Concubine Shen was relatively well-behaved in the palace during the spring hunting days.

After Jun Zechen returned to the palace, just as Su Jingyao had talked about with her brother before, he began to favor Ye Jieyu frequently.

Now in the harem, Concubine Ye and Concubine Lin are equally favored.

"Master." Miaoyun frowned slightly, with a hint of doubt in her eyes.

"I don't know what's wrong with Concubine Lin recently. She always targets Concubine Ye and has done a lot of small things in secret. If it was just because Concubine Ye was favored, it wouldn't be like this."

"It's okay." Su Jingyao waved her hand gently with a calm expression.

"Let them fight."

Although Su Jingyao didn't know why the two of them were fighting so fiercely, it was obvious that this was the result that Jun Zechen wanted.

Maybe Jun Zechen was also behind the scenes fanning the flames.

"Yesterday, His Majesty promoted Xu Baolin to the rank of talented person." Miaoyun continued.

"Xu Baolin?" A hint of doubt flashed across Su Jingya's face. She seemed to have no impression of this person.

"Talented Xu is the one who was in the peach forest last time." Miaoyun explained.

Su Jingyao then nodded, not really caring.

If these women in the harem didn't have any scheming, how could they stand out among so many other women?

Miaoyun saw that her master didn't care about these things, so she didn't say anything more.

"Master, Doctor Jin is here." Miaoxue walked in and reported.

"Let him in."

Su Jingyao lay lazily on the couch, with one hand casually resting on the edge of the couch. She looked extremely relaxed and her posture seemed extremely casual.

Li Jing walked in slowly carrying a medicine box, then bowed respectfully and said, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you."

"Get up." Su Jingyao said lazily without even raising her eyelids.

Li Jing stood up and walked to Su Jingyao's side and sat down.

He stretched out a hand, placed three fingers on Su Jingyao's wrist very naturally, and began to take her pulse carefully.

"Your Majesty, you are in good health and there is nothing wrong with you." Li Jing said calmly.

After a short pause, Li Jing continued calmly, "It's just that someone put contraceptive drugs in the tonic you took recently."

When Su Jingyao heard this, her brows suddenly frowned, because Doctor Li had always been in charge of her tonic medicine.

"Who is it?" There was a hint of anger in her voice.

"Yes... Your Majesty."

Su Jingyao raised her eyebrows slightly. Could it be that Jun Zechen was still on guard against the Su family?

A hint of darkness flashed quickly in her eyes, and there was a hint of dissatisfaction and confusion in her expression.

Li Jing looked at the suspicion in her eyes towards His Majesty, and privately he didn't want to defend His Majesty.

But after hesitating for a moment, he slowly said, "Your Majesty may be worried about your Majesty's health. You gave birth to the eldest prince not long ago, and you had a miscarriage some time ago. It is normal that His Majesty does not want you to get pregnant."

After a pause, he continued, "The contraceptive medicine that Doctor Li prepared for you will not harm your body, don't worry, Your Majesty."

Su Jingyao nodded thoughtfully.

After she ascended to the position of Imperial Noble Consort, she became much more relaxed and every move of the concubines in the harem was under her close surveillance.

The position of queen is bound to be in her pocket.

As long as she could manage all the affairs of the harem in the next year and have Jun Zechen's harem give birth to one or two princes, she would be able to ascend to the throne of queen with the support of the empress dowager and Jun Zechen's expectations by next year at the latest.

However, an idea suddenly occurred to her now.

It seems that it would be a good idea to stimulate Jun Zechen. Maybe this would allow Jun Zechen to hand over the position of queen in advance.

Thinking of this, Su Jingyao unconsciously curled up a faint smile at the corner of her mouth.

A man's heart must be hurt, so that he can be trained step by step to be the way she likes.

After all, she will have to spend most of her life with him, and Su Jingyao doesn't want to put herself in a difficult position.

Her early accommodation was to allow the man to give in step by step without any bottom line in the later stage.
