If she had become the supreme emperor, then at this moment, she would have certainly skillfully used her political tactics to divide the close relationships between those powerful princes, thereby making them suspicious and fearful of each other.

Every morning at dawn, Ye Zifen would get up from her bed without hesitation, dress up carefully, and prepare to go to the court in a dignified and majestic manner.

She was wearing a gorgeous official robe, the sleeves of which danced in the wind, flashing a dazzling light; her face was solemn and dignified, and she was intimidating without being angry, but her beautiful eyes revealed incomparable determination and extraordinary wisdom.

After the morning court session ended, Ye Zifen hurried straight to the bedroom of the retired emperor.

The place where the emperor lives is peaceful and tranquil, like a paradise.

She first paid her respects to the retired emperor respectfully, and then spoke to him in a soft voice, her words full of concern for his health and comfort for his mood.

After a short pause, Ye Zifen did not dare to slack off at all and rushed to the prime minister's office again without stopping.

As soon as she arrived there, she immediately threw herself into her work, carefully reading through the piles of memorials from the past.

Those densely packed words were like intricate puzzles, lying quietly on the memorial, waiting for her to use her wisdom to solve them one by one.

Time flies, and more than half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

After a period of persistent hard study and practical exploration, Ye Zifen has been able to skillfully take over the important task of classifying memorials from the prime minister.

Her diligence, hard work, intelligence and talent made all the ministers in the court look at the princess differently and admire her highly.

At this time, the highly-watched Zhang Gaoyi finally recovered completely and was able to attend court and participate in government affairs normally.

Now, every morning, when the first ray of sunlight falls on the eaves of the eldest princess's house, Ye Zifen and Zhang Gaoyi will get up together without any prior arrangement.

In the dim light of dawn, the two of them tacitly helped each other to adjust their court robes, which symbolized their status.

In the early morning, the sun shone faintly through the thin clouds, illuminating the broad avenue leading to the palace.

Zhang Gaoyi and Ye Zifen, dressed in gorgeous official uniforms, walked side by side, and every step they took seemed exceptionally firm and powerful.

Zhang Gaoyi turned his head to look at Ye Zifen beside him, the corners of his mouth lifted unconsciously, and he couldn't help but say: "These days, I've seen you get up early every day to go to the court. You look more and more like an official! I'm both envious and proud of you. Today, I can finally see your elegance in the court with my own eyes."

Upon hearing this, Ye Zifen's eyes flashed with worry, and she asked softly, "Although your body has recovered quite well, you should not overwork yourself. You need to pay more attention to your own condition in everything."

Zhang Gaoyi smiled and nodded, responding: "Don't worry, now that you have successfully solved the Tiger Army's military pay problem, there is nothing else of vital importance that needs to be dealt with. Don't worry, you will never let yourself get too tired."

However, Ye Zifen snorted lightly, glared at Zhang Gaoyi fiercely, and warned: "If you dare to tire yourself out again, you will have to lie in bed and recuperate for half a year!"

Hearing this, Zhang Gaoyi couldn't help but shrink his neck, purse his lips, and dared not say another word.

Soon, the two of them arrived at the court.

They were standing not far from each other, and Ye Zifen only needed to turn her head slightly to clearly see Zhang Gaoyi's serious and focused profile.

Similarly, Zhang Gaoyi would occasionally take advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and secretly glance in the direction of Ye Zifen out of the corner of his eye.

Whenever their eyes met, it seemed as if an invisible force was flowing between them, conveying encouragement and support that only they could understand.

But after just a few casual glances, Ye Zifen immediately focused all her attention and began to listen carefully to everyone's discussion.

Her bright eyes were fixed on the person who was speaking. Her gaze was focused and sharp, as if she was unwilling to miss even the slightest change.

At the same time, her beautiful face looked particularly solemn, as if the weight of the whole world was pressing on her weak shoulders.

Because she knew very well that every sentence and every opinion in these discussions could become the key clue to solving the problem, so she must not miss even the slightest important detail.

In sharp contrast to Ye Zifen is Zhang Gaoyi who is sitting next to her.

At this moment, he looked relaxed and contented, as if everything happening around him had nothing to do with him.

As long as the topic under discussion did not involve the affairs of the Ministry of War, Zhang Gaoyi would always keep his lips tightly shut and would never easily express his opinions.

He just sat there quietly, his hands folded across his chest, a slightly relaxed look on his face.

However, once the court was adjourned, Zhang Gaoyi would instantly become vigorous and resolute. As usual, he would rush to the Ministry of War and inspect the Tiger Army's garrison.

From his hurried pace, one could clearly feel that there was indeed an extremely urgent matter waiting for him to deal with personally.

When Ye Zifen returned to where the prime minister was, the highly respected prime minister had been waiting for a long time.

The Prime Minister was holding a thick stack of memorials in his arms, and then he gently placed them on the table in front of Ye Zifen, and said to her with a smile: "Princess, you have been reading various memorials for some time, and I believe you have accumulated a lot of valuable experience from them. In this case, how about trying to handle some relatively simple matters?"

Hearing the Prime Minister's words, Ye Zifen was stunned at first, but quickly came to her senses.

She reached out and gently picked up one of the folded books and began to read it carefully.

It turned out that this was a memorial submitted by a local official, and its content was mainly a report on the water conservancy project in a county in the south.

Ye Zifen had some knowledge of this kind of affairs, so after thinking for a moment, she nodded and said, "Okay, I'm willing to give it a try. But I'll have to ask the Prime Minister to check it for me afterwards."

After saying this, Ye Zifen's eyes revealed a hint of expectation and humility.

The prime minister nodded slightly, indicating that he agreed to hand the new memorial to her for review, but this did not mean that he would completely let it go.
