Yu Miao had finished his meal and knew that Xiao Yujin still had things to do, so he didn't disturb him.

She was originally wondering if the food in the military camp was this good? There was chicken, duck, fish, meat, and even desserts.

After asking Xiao A, I found out that Xiao Yujin was afraid that she would not be able to eat it, so he asked Ji Feng to run errands to the restaurant next door to buy these first-class dishes.

So thoughtful.

Then let's reward him tonight?

Yu Miao came up with a lot of clever ideas in his mind.

It must be something that a gentleman like Xiao Yujin has never heard of!

"Ah!"

Yu Miao pulled his clothes closer. Although the temperature had warmed up, the temperature difference between morning and night was still quite large.

When Baizhi heard her sneeze, she quickly brought her a cloak.

"Princess, this is what the prince asked Jifeng to deliver to you before we left. He said it was his own cloak and he was worried that you would be cold on your way back."

Yu Miao took it with a smile, feeling warm in her body and heart.

.

royal palace.

"Has today's medicine been boiled? Why is it so late?"

The queen leaned on the bed, her face looked a little haggard, and she coughed from time to time.

"My Lady, how long do I have to continue taking this medicine?"

Lian Qiao, the queen's personal maid, showed reluctance on her face.

Others may not know, but she has been serving the Empress closely for such a long time that she has long noticed that the Empress's health has been deteriorating drastically since she drank the so-called tonic.

"No need to say anything, just get the medicine."

The queen closed her eyes and stopped talking. Even though her lips were dry, she was unwilling to take Qiao's cup of tea.

"The Emperor has arrived——"

The queen slowly opened her eyes when she heard the voice.

"Lianqiao, help me change my clothes."

"My lady, if you are not feeling well, please do not force yourself."

"No problem."

The queen changed her clothes, put on lip balm, and waited for the emperor to arrive.

"I heard that you were not feeling well?"

Xiao Yuanqing strode over the threshold and looked at her carefully: "You look a little pale, what's wrong, have you caught a cold recently?"

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. It's just an old ailment."

Xiao Yuanqing was furious when he saw that she was respectful but lacked the warmth she usually showed.

"Tang Yanran, do you really have to make yourself look like a dead person to annoy me?"

Tang Yanran was the Queen’s maiden name before she got married.

Even after he said that, Tang Yanran didn't show any shame or anger on her face.

She looked back at him neither servile nor arrogant, her eyes lifeless: "Isn't this what your majesty wants? I am just playing the role of a dignified and virtuous queen."

"Yanran, are you still blaming me?"

Tang Yanran was originally the daughter of the Grand Tutor. She was the only daughter in the family. With the Grand Tutor and his wife doting on her, she developed a free and unrestrained personality.

Just because she fell in love with Xiao Yuanqing, she was burdened with many more constraints and was forced to become a virtuous woman so that she could be worthy of his position as queen.

Tutor Tang knew very well that was not his daughter's nature. She would never be happy all her life if she was trapped within the red walls of the palace.

He vigorously opposed it, but what he got was that Xiao Yuanqing exiled him to Beihan Territory on the charge of disobeying the imperial order, and they would never see each other again in this life.

She lost everything for love, but in the end she didn't get love.

How can you not hate it?

"I don't dare."

It’s that I don’t dare, not that I won’t.

Xiao Yuanqing looked at her coldly: "Tang Yanran, no matter what you think in your heart, you can't escape from me. I am your king. Even if you die, you must die in my palace and be buried next to me!"

After saying that, he strode away again.

During the whole process, he never asked her what medicine she was taking or which doctor she consulted. The initial words of concern seemed like a routine inquiry.

It seemed as if warning was his only purpose in coming to her palace.

"Cough cough cough..."

Due to emotional fluctuations and catching a cold, Tang Yanran couldn't stop coughing.

"Miss!"

Lian Qiao helped her onto the bed and tucked in the corners of the quilt carefully.

"Your Highness, why bother to get angry with the Emperor? Even a maid like me can see clearly that the Emperor just wants you to give in."

Tang Yanran smiled faintly and said nothing.

Who can she tell about the pain in her heart?

.

"Ridiculous!"

Fang Wanrou looked at Xiao Yuanqing's angry face and understood that the only person who could make His Majesty, who usually did not show his expression, angry was the person in the palace.

"Who has angered the emperor again? This is the freshest spring tea in the southern region. It is made by picking the freshest and tenderest parts of the tea leaves and roasting them. It is perfect for clearing heat."

As she spoke, she handed it in the direction of Xiao Yuanqing.

Xiao Yuanqing opened the lid of the tea, and the fragrance filled the air. The tea soup was not green, but a soft yellow.

You can tell at first glance that honey has been added to it.

Xiao Yuanqing has a little-known hobby, which is sweets.

Fang Wanrou keenly noticed this and wanted to use this to get closer to him.

Looking at his expression, Fang Wanrou knew that she had made the right bet.

"Your Majesty, please don't be upset in the future. I am willing to help you share the burden."

Xiao Yuanqing felt better after drinking the honey tea. Listening to her soft voice and looking at her face which looked very similar to Yanran, his heart was slightly moved.

"Really? Can you give me what I want?"

"Your Majesty is the reincarnation of a true dragon and the ruler of the world. Everything I have was given by Your Majesty. If you ask me what I can give Your Majesty..." Fang Wanrou smiled shyly.

"It's only my sincere heart."

How could Xiao Yuanqing not understand her hint?

Looking at her skimpy clothes, he curled his lips secretly.

"Then give yourself to me."

Fang Wanrou reluctantly gave in, but finally lay down under Xiao Yuanqing.

She figured it out: love is hard to come by and it depends on fate; power is hard to come by and it depends on destiny.

If you have power, you don't need to ask for anything in the world.

She wanted to sit in the highest position, a position that Xiao Yujin could not refuse.
