Shi Anxia also felt that Emperor Mingde was quite pitiful, especially when she saw his lonely figure just now.

In fact, in the previous life, Emperor Mingde always went alone and rarely allowed concubines to accompany him. But no matter how pitiful she was, she still didn't want her mother to go to the palace to wait for others' favor.

How happy my mother is now! Every day she writes and draws with my mother, enjoys flowers and listens to music, and burns incense and drinks tea with three or five close friends. If she wants to visit her son and daughter-in-law, she can get there in just a few steps.

If you enter the palace and want to see her, it is not that difficult now, but it is not that convenient. After all, there are so many rules in the palace that you cannot control yourself.

The four words that Shi Anxia hated most in her previous life were "helpless". Knowing the hardships of life in the deep palace, she didn't want her mother to go down this path.

It was time for a nap, so Cen Yuan returned to his own meditation room to rest.

Shi Anxia tossed and turned on the hard bed, unable to fall asleep.

After an unknown amount of time, she heard Eunuch Qi talking in a low voice to Bei Hui outside.

When Shi Anxia opened the door, she just happened to hear Bei Hui say, "Godfather, are you going back to the palace now? Didn't you say you would be back tomorrow?"

Shi Anxia asked in surprise, "Eunuch Qi, my father is going back to the palace now?"

Eunuch Qi smiled and nodded, "My master is very busy, how can he really rest outside? When we return, the memorials will be piled up like a mountain."

Shi Anxia couldn't explain why, and hurriedly said "I'm going to see my father" and ran towards Emperor Mingde.

The door of the Zen room was open. Emperor Mingde was neatly dressed, holding a brush in his hand, and an open folding fan was placed on the table.

The ink on the folding fan has not yet dried, as if Emperor Mingde had painted another one.

Seeing An Xia coming, Emperor Mingde subconsciously moved his folding fan inward. However, the ink was not dry yet, and it was inconvenient to fold the fan, so the scene was quite embarrassing.

Despite this, Shi Anxia could clearly see the two people whose folding fans were hidden in the mist.

A man stood at this end, and a woman stood at that end, looking at each other.

What a little thought!

Shi Anxia frowned and bowed before asking, "Father, I heard you are going back to the palace?"

Emperor Mingde placed the brush on the pen holder, raised his head, and said in a deeper voice, "I know you love your mother dearly. Please believe me. I... will not hurt your mother."

He paused, his voice a little sad, "I don't want her to die in depression either."

Shi Anxia's heart skipped a beat when he heard that, "Father, you..."

Emperor Mingde did not want to talk more. "Don't worry. I will not take the initiative to provoke your mother. But..."

He wanted to say, what if there is fate?

Then he laughed at himself. The so-called fate is nothing but something that comes to you after going through so many twists and turns.

Shi Anxia didn't know what to say. She just watched Emperor Mingde wash his hands with water, and when the ink on the folding fan dried, he put it away.

She sent Emperor Mingde and others to the gate of Baoguo Temple, feeling mixed emotions as she watched the tall figure gradually walk down the stairs.

The bell of Baoguo Temple rang slowly, and every sound seemed to make a hole in her heart.

Shi Anxia suddenly blurted out, "Father!"

Emperor Mingde turned his head and looked up at his daughter from the steps.

The mottled sunlight sprinkled on her body, and her long hair fluttered gently in the wind. A few strands of hair playfully brushed against her fair cheeks, adding a bit of girlish playfulness to her.

He felt that this daughter was the one who looked most like him.

Those eyes were deep and bright. "Father, I promise you that I will not stop you, but I will not help you either. So, you don't have to rush back to the palace just because of what I said."

Emperor Mingde was startled, then a smile spread across his lips, and he tapped his palm with the folding fan in his hand, "I have a lot of things to do in the palace, and I am busy with government affairs. I will not return to the palace just because you ask me to! How can a daughter take care of her father's affairs! Okay, go back."

He said, then turned and continued down the stairs.

Eunuch Qi waved to Shi Anxia, ​​then waved to Bei Hui, and followed them away.

Eunuch Qi was delighted, "Master, does Princess Haiyan mean that she doesn't object to you getting close to her mother?"

Emperor Mingde smiled for a long time, but said, "She doesn't object, it's her love for me. I can't really provoke her mother..."

Although the harem is now empty, with only a few idle concubines whose families did not participate in the rebellion and who have never been favored, there are always conflicts where there are people. If Tang Chujun enters the palace to break the balance and win the emperor's exclusive favor, there will be endless troubles.

Emperor Mingde did not dare to gamble.

He had seen Tang Chujun die in depression, not knowing until her death that her son had been replaced. He knew that she was not as lively and cheerful as she appeared.

Now that he has nothing to worry about, he smiles all day long. No wonder Shi Anxia didn't want him to get close to Tang Chujun.

A word of love is the most heartbreaking...

The carriage was moving slowly along the mountain road. After passing Andu Bridge and Yingzhuang Avenue, and just entering Huaiyin Road, it encountered a carriage stuck in a ditch on the side of the road.

Another carriage was parked in the middle of the road, blocking it. A very beautifully dressed lady stuck her head out of the carriage and said in a sarcastic tone, "Your shabby carriage damaged my carriage. Can you afford the compensation?"

The maid in the other carriage got out of the tilted carriage in a panic, but she was still full of energy. "Hey, how can you talk like that? Our lady was kind-hearted. She asked the driver to pull over so that your carriage could pass smoothly. Not only is your lady unreasonable, but even the driver is unreasonable. You deliberately pushed our carriage into the ditch, and now you are still making sarcastic remarks!"

The beautiful lady was not happy about this. "Wow, I haven't been to Beijing for a few years. Has the trend in Beijing changed? Do you know who I am? How dare you talk back?"

The nanny had obviously been a tough person for a long time, so she couldn't stand this. "I don't care who you are, it's wrong for you to push our lady's carriage down!"

Emperor Mingde frowned and poked his head out, saying calmly, "Youen, go and take a look."

Eunuch Qi responded, glanced at Wei Xingzhou who was driving the carriage, and smiled sinisterly.

You little brat! I can't handle you!

You want to stay with my daughter? No way!

Wei Xingzhou knew that it was Eunuch Qi who asked him to follow him back to the palace, but he couldn't do anything about it.

He decided to build a good relationship with Eunuch Qi, so he forced a smile at him.

Eunuch Qi turned his head away proudly, not wanting to pay attention. He ran to the front and was about to ask what happened when he heard a familiar voice coming from the tilted carriage, "Madame Zhong, help me out first. The tea has spilled all over me."

Eunuch Qi shuddered suddenly, Oh my God, my master's sweetheart is here!

Just as he was about to report to His Majesty, he heard the beautiful lady laugh a mean laugh, "Oh my, tea is all over you! There's still tea in your shabby carriage, ha ha ha ha, I don't know whose poor family's carriage this is from!"

Eunuch Qi asked coldly, "Whose broken carriage is this?"
