As everyone knew, if the Prince Mu was truly allowed to marry Mu Chuyang, then Duan Yunfei's power would be even greater. At that time, even if the Fifth Prince had the chance to become the emperor, he would not be able to suppress the Thirteenth Princess.
Thinking of this, the empress's heart skipped a beat.
Even though Yuwen Di's eyes were sharp like a torch, the Queen still hesitated for a moment. She could not help but say to Yuwen Di: "Your majesty, this is a very important matter, please reconsider!"
Seeing the empress's expression, Yuwen Di's inner heart felt even more dissatisfied. He lowered his eyebrows, gently sized up the empress, then continued to speak to the empress: "Chu Yang and Thirteen have known each other since childhood, and this marriage was set long ago. Now that we have you arrange the marriage for the both of them, and you are going to make such a fuss about it, I really don't know what your intentions are."
"Chenqie …" The Queen was about to speak up to defend herself, but before she could raise her head, she saw Yuwen Di's sharp eyes.
The Empress sat at the side with tears in her eyes, but Yuwen Di was annoyed by her actions. He glanced at the Queen, and waved his hands at her impatiently, then said after a long while, "The Queen went through so much trouble to deliver the pastries to us today, I really have troubled you, but it's getting late now. We still have some matters to attend to, so I won't keep the Queen here anymore.
"Your Majesty, chenqie has no other intentions. The things that chenqie has done, are all for the sake of the mountains and rivers of Jin Country. " Yuwen Di had already ordered her to leave, but he had already made his decision, and did not want to continue speaking with her. The empress rushed forward and tugged at the corner of the emperor's robe. "I hope Your Majesty won't misunderstand this concubine."
Inside the palace, when the palace maid saw this scene, they all retreated, leaving only the empress by Yuwen Di's side, speaking to him nonstop.
Yuwen Di didn't want to continue talking to the Queen anymore, so he waved her away.
"Since the empress is unwilling, let's go down first." "Let me think again." Yuwen Di sighed, and slowly released the Queen's hand. No matter what, he was, after all, his wife who had accompanied him for so many years, so it would be difficult for Yuwen Di to say any heartless words.
Seeing that Yuwen Di was so insistent, the Queen could only bow to him and take his leave.
She was just about to leave when she suddenly thought of something. She quickly turned her head and bowed towards Yuwen Di, "Your Majesty, chenqie still has one last thing to discuss with you.
Yuwen Di lay by the side of the bed, he did not even want to turn his head. His face was slightly raised, his eyes were closed, and he was taking a nap without saying a word.
The empress waited for about ten minutes, but Yuwen Di still didn't say anything. The empress then cleared her throat and continued to speak to the emperor, "The emperor just mentioned about the marriage of the Thirteenth Princess, but it reminded chenqie of the Sixth Princess. As a big sister, the Sixth Princess is naturally already at the age of marriage.
As the Empress of the Middle Palace, her selfishness was unexpectedly heavy. She didn't think about the bigger picture, but was only concerned about her personal gains and losses.
The emperor's heart was set ablaze with anger. His brows were knitted tightly as he turned to look at the empress. It was just that every time he saw Sixth Princess like this, Yuwen Di would feel extremely guilty. In the end, Sixth Princess Duan Ying Luo was only a bit arrogant at the time, he didn't expect himself to end up like this.
The moment he thought of this, Yuwen Di forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart and nodded at the empress. Sixth Princess is also my daughter, so I will take it to heart. When we know of this matter, we will naturally arrange for it to be done properly and send the Sixth Princess out in great glory. "
The empress was relieved to hear the emperor say so. She quickly bowed to the emperor, then slowly withdrew.
Just as the Queen left, Yuwen Di laid back on the bed and sighed heavily.
The Eunuch Ming naturally knew the reason behind Yuwen Di's anger. He stood by the side waiting, hesitated for a moment, and asked Yuwen Di probingly, "Your Majesty, why don't we go take a walk today? At this time, the plum blossoms within the Red Luan Courtyard have not withered yet, and Your Majesty coincidentally is also going to take a look at what our Thirteenth Princess is doing."
The Eunuch Ming was always like this. Whenever Yuwen Di encountered any trouble, he would send someone to invite the Thirteenth Princess. When Yuwen Di saw Duan Yunfei, the anger in her heart lessened by a lot.
Hearing Eunuch Ming's words, Yuwen Di could not help but laugh. He pondered for a moment, and lightly shook his head. We still haven't thought of how to deal with the marriage between Little Thirteen and Chu Yang, and we still can't see her at this time. "I don't want to see her again when the time comes and feel so much guilt in my heart."
"Sigh, since there's nothing to do today, I shall make a trip to Imperial Consort Yu." Yuwen Di let out a long sigh of relief, got down from the bed, and waved at Eunuch Ming.
Imperial Consort Yu was sitting in the courtyard sewing, and upon seeing Yuwen Di walk in, she quickly bent down to bow towards Yuwen Di, smiling as she said: "Greetings, your majesty."
"Get up." Yuwen Di waved her hand, indicating her to stand up. Then, he walked over and sat in front of Imperial Consort Yu.
"What are you doing? "Although it's small, it's quite exquisite." Yuwen Di said with interest as he picked up the toy that the Imperial Consort Yu had placed on the table, and raised it up in his hand.
Hearing Yuwen Di's question, the Imperial Consort Yu couldn't help but feel embarrassed. She gently took the toy from Yuwen Di's hands and after smiling gently for a bit, she said to Yuwen Di: "Reporting to your majesty, this is a sachet made by your concubine. Since I have nothing to do in the courtyard for the past few days, I made a few scented sacs so that I could give one to you and one to Thirteenth Princess. "
Hearing Imperial Consort Yu's words, Yuwen Di's heart began to feel at ease. He raised his head to look at Imperial Consort Yu and nodded to her. Imperial Consort Yu is too kind! "
Imperial Consort Yu could not hold back her laughter as she spoke. She lightly shook her head, looked at Yuwen Di, and said to him after a long while: "Chenqie's Front is crude, I wonder if the princess will dislike chenqie if I gift it to Thirteenth Princess."
