Yaoyao’s pupils shrunk slightly, murmuring, “Your Majesty seldom asks me to work for you.”
Then she smiled and said, “Your Majesty can rest assured. I am willing to share your worries.”
Su Bei was a little bit flustered. All Yaoyao’s thoughts were for him the emperor, while he cannot respond to her. What to do?

After coming out from Lu Jinyao’s place, Su Bei returned to the royal study.

As the emperor, he was a total loser, who even didn’t have to attend the morning court.
Basically the prime minister and Mu Qinghan were in charge.
Su Bei thought that, since in this position, he should seek his duty, and take his responsibility.
Since he was the emperor, he had to do something anyway.
Su Bei analyzed the current situation. Now the court was divided into two sides.
One was Mu Qingyan, the other was the prime minister.
Till now, Mu Qinghan didn’t show a trace of usurping the throne.
However, the prime minister could not sit still now. He wanted to push his grandson into this position, so he had been cooking something behind the scenes.
You asked who was his grandson? Of course, it was the son of Su Bei and the empress.
Su Bei who suddenly had a son felt so pathetic.
In his memory, Su Bei actually had never slept with any concubine, in fact, this was also kind of silent resistance.
Because a lot of concubines were others’ eyes planted by his side.
The empress could have sex with this body only because she drugged the emperor.
Then only doing it once, the empress got pregnant and gave birth to a prince.

Not long after the prince was born, the prime minister urged to confer him the crown prince, constantly giving pressure to the emperor.
Finally, it was Mu Qingyan who rescued him, so the prime minister and Mu Qingyan were also enemies now.
The prince was only ten years old.
Su Bei wanted to see how the prime minister and the empress had raised his son into.
However, before Su Bei went to see his son, the empress came first.
The empress was wearing elegant and noble, and the way she looked at Su Bei was with disdain, but she was very clever not to show it, “Your Majesty, did you go to the harem today?”
Su Bei sat down in his chair in a less uncomfortable position and asked with a smile, “What advice do you have, my empress?”
The empress stroked her sleeve, “I dare not. It’s just that Jinyao’s tomfoolery is just enough, but how could you also play with her?”
Su Bei asked back, “Are you lessoning me?”
The empress replied, “I dare not.” But with not much sincerity, “Lu Jinyao advocates equality every day, trying to disturb the harem. I suggest Your Majesty throw her into the cold palace.”
Su Bei hang his eyebrows, slender fingertip holding a page of book, “I think you also should go to the cold palace and experience what life is like.”
The empress opened her eyes wide and raised her voice. “Does Your Majesty mean to relegate me to the cold palace?”

Threatening, a total threatening tone!
Su Bei smiled, “I was only joking. Don’t be angry.”
“This harem is really too boring. I can only find my own fun.”
The empress softened her face. “Your Majesty, you can amuse yourself, but don’t go too far.”
In a threatening tone again! Su Bei felt that as the emperor, he was really a failure.
At that moment, the eunuch said in a high voice, “Your Majesty, the prince regent asks to see you.”
Su Bei said, “Yes.”
As the words fell, Mu Qinghan walked slowly into the royal study, wearing the faint smile, “Her Empress is also here?”
The empress rose slightly and said. “Prince Regent.”
Su Bei swept over those two people, both were looking so sophisticated.
“What brings you here, Prince Regent?” He asked, picking his eyebrows.
