The sky gradually darkened.
Before I knew it, it was already Youshi.
In the Longevity Immortal Palace, on the bed covered by the pink curtain, Ye Chen hugged the beautiful woman with jade arms in his arms, his face full of reminiscence and emotion.
This was what life was like!
No wonder there was a saying that the emperor would not go to court early!
Facing such a peerless beauty, no one would be able to hold back!
Especially after knowing Daji's true identity, the excitement was even stronger!
Daji's body, Nine-Tailed Fox's soul!
Who among the past generations of transmigrators is better than me in this aspect?!
"Your Majesty…"
Daji's charming eyes were like silk as she lay on Ye Chen's body like an octopus. Her face was rosy with satisfaction, but at the same time, there was some doubt.
For some reason, the king today seemed to be exceptionally…heroic!
Looking down at Daji's alluring appearance, Ye Chen could not help but feel tempted again…
"This is a real demon!"
Ye Chen cursed under his breath and forcefully suppressed the throbbing in his heart. He stood up and said,"Beloved Consort, change your clothes. I will follow you to the Central Palace. With me by your side, the Empress should not make things too difficult for you.”
Although there was a beauty beside him, the most important thing now was to deal with the mess that Di Xin had left behind!
Since he had inherited the throne and his wife, he had to do what he had to do.
"Yes, Great King!"
Hearing that they were going to the central palace, Daji did not delay any longer. She immediately stood up and helped Ye Chen change and wash up.
Then, the two of them went to Empress Jiang's place.
When they reached the entrance of the palace, Ye Chen dismissed the guards and palace maids at the entrance and only brought Daji in.
At this moment, the sky was getting dark and it was already dinner time. However, the Central Palace was very deserted.
Upon entering the main hall, he saw a table full of dishes and two palace maids standing guard at the side. However, Empress Jiang was nowhere to be seen.
"Greetings, Your Majesty! Greetings, Lady Daji!"
No one informed them. When they saw Ye Chen and Daji enter, the two palace maids were shocked and quickly bowed.
Ye Chen waved his hand and asked doubtfully,""Where's the Empress?"
The oval-faced palace maid on the left hurriedly replied,"Your Majesty, the Empress refuses to eat and is currently alone in the inner hall.”
Ye Chen was stunned, but he immediately understood what was going on. He couldn't help but sigh.
Daji was also silent, a hint of guilt appearing in her eyes.
"Heat up the food. Tonight, I will eat here.”
After informing the two palace maids, Ye Chen brought Daji into the inner hall.
Compared to Daji's Longevity Immortal Palace, although the middle palace was the main palace, it was much simpler.
However, the hall was very bright. As soon as Ye Chen entered, he saw Empress Jiang sitting alone in front of the dressing table.
She stared blankly at the bronze mirror in front of her, seemingly in a daze. She did not even notice Ye Chen and the other man entering.
"What is Zitong thinking?"
Ye Chen called out softly.
Empress Jiang snapped back to her senses and turned around hurriedly. When she saw Ye Chen, she was shocked." Ah…Your Majesty!"”
As he spoke, he quickly stood up and bowed."ChenQie didn't know that Your Majesty had come, so I hope Your Majesty can forgive me!”
"There's no need to be so polite between us husband and wife!”
Ye Chen sighed when he saw the tears in Empress Jiang's eyes that she had yet to wipe away. He reached out to wipe her tears and said,""Beloved Consort, it has been hard on you during this period of time!”
Upon hearing this, Empress Jiang immediately raised her head and looked at Ye Chen in disbelief. Then, tears welled up again.
However, when she saw Daji beside Ye Chen, the fire that had just risen in her heart cooled down again. Her eyes dimmed and she bowed in a low voice,"This concubine was rude and made a fool of herself in front of the king…"
"Sigh…"
Although Empress Jiang's expression was subtle, it could not escape Ye Chen's eyes. He sighed again and said,""Zitong, I know that I've neglected you during this period of time, which is why today's matter happened. This is my fault, so I specially came to apologize to you.”
"Moreover, it's not only me. Daji is also here to apologize to Zitong.”
Empress Jiang looked at Daji in disbelief and then at Ye Chen. For a moment, she did not know how to respond.
In the past six months, Ye Chen had been obsessed with Daji. In his eyes, this flirtatious woman was probably the most perfect woman in the world. He treated her a thousand times better than others and could not bear to hear anyone say anything bad about her.
This matter could be seen from today's matter in the court.
Even if he had committed the crime of framing the Empress and sending people to assassinate the emperor, Ye Chen was still arbitrary and did not want to listen to the opinions of the officials to execute Daji.
However, Empress Jiang knew Daji's true colors. She pretended to be extremely obedient in front of the King, but she was a different person behind his back. She did not even hide her ambition to dominate the harem.
Was the sun setting in the east?
Or did it fall from the south or the north?
This demoness actually came to apologize to him?!
"Daji greets sister!"
Facing Empress Jiang's incredulous gaze, Daji walked forward with guilt and knelt on the ground. She bowed to Empress Jiang and said,"
"Daji was muddle-headed and almost made a big mistake. She almost harmed my sister and the king. Although the King had forgiven Daji, Daji herself could not forgive herself. Therefore, she came to apologize to her sister. She hoped that her sister would be magnanimous and forgive Daji.”
Empress Jiang did not speak. Her expression kept changing. She still did not believe that this was true.
Would this demoness know her way back?
Was he up to something again?
Or was she deliberately putting on an act in front of the king to gain the king's sympathy so that he could dote on her more in the future?
Daji knelt on the ground and said in a low voice,"Daji knows that sister doesn't trust Daji, but Daji will prove it with her actions in the future. I hope that my sister can forgive Daji for everything that happened in the past. In the future, Daji will not dare to cross the etiquette and will serve the King and my sister well to forgive Daji for her crimes.”
Empress Jiang frowned.
At this moment, Ye Chen sighed." Zitong, for the past six months, I've ignored the government and killed innocent loyal officials. I've neglected Zitong and my two beloved concubines, Huang and Yang. Although this has something to do with Daji, I also have my own reasons. That's why this is happening." The harem was in chaos and Daji almost made a big mistake. Fortunately, because of this, I came to my senses and brought Daji to apologize to Zitong today.”
"This…"
Empress Jiang's expression softened slightly. She looked at Ye Chen with tears in her eyes and said,""Is what Your Majesty said true?!”
Ye Chen reached out and caressed Empress Jiang's delicate and fair cheeks.""People are not saints. Who can be without mistakes? Moreover, even saints would make mistakes sometimes. However, there was no greater good than knowing one's mistakes and being able to correct them. I have personally brought Daji here to apologize. Is Zitong still unwilling to forgive me?”
"ChenQie wouldn't dare!"
Empress Jiang quickly shook her head. She looked at Ye Chen and sobbed,""Your Majesty is able to return from the wrong path, this concubine is extremely lucky, the world is very lucky! I am not afraid of being neglected. I only hope that Your Majesty can put political affairs first, not engage in banquets, not indulge in alcohol, and not slack off in women. Only then will the world return to you and the people live in peace and contentment. Only then will Your Majesty's way of being a ruler be revealed. Only after a hundred years will I have the face to meet the ancestors of the Shang Dynasty.”
Ye Chen smiled and nodded." Zitong doesn't have to say anything about this. I'm aware of it. From now on, I'll treat Zitong, Daji, and the other two beloved concubines equally. I won't let Zitong suffer any more grievances."”
"Your Majesty…"
Empress Jiang felt a lump in her throat and threw herself into Ye Chen's arms, sobbing and crying.
Half a year of grievances in the Cold Palace seemed to have disappeared at this moment.
The king was able to repent and as a ruler, he could take the initiative to apologize. What grievances did she have?!
Ye Chen patted her back and said,"I have a virtuous Empress like Zitong to assist me. Why should I worry about not being a wise monarch?"?”
"Your Majesty, you flatter me."
Embarrassed, Empress Jiang raised her head and wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes. Then, she looked at Daji who was still kneeling on the ground and quickly walked over to help her up."Sister, please get up! In the future, he hoped that his younger sister could abide by the law and serve the king together. Moreover, she could not cause trouble like in the past, causing the king to be criticized by the officials and the people.”
Daji bowed respectfully and said,"Thank you for your teachings, sister. Daji will definitely remember them in her heart and dare not forget them."”
When Ye Chen saw this, his heart relaxed and a smile appeared on his face."This is a happy ending. Since you've said it, let's go out and eat. Zitong, don't tire yourself out because of this..."
"What? Has the king not eaten yet?"
Empress Jiang was shocked and quickly said,"I'm sorry to make a fool of myself in front of Your Majesty and Younger Sister. ChenQie will order people to prepare new meals."”
Ye Chen smiled." There's no need. I've already asked your palace maids to prepare. I think it's about time. Let's go out together."”
"Yes, Great King!"
Empress Jiang nodded.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, you can't go in! There's…"
"Go away! I want to see mother!"
At this moment, a commotion suddenly came from outside the hall.
The three of them turned their heads and saw two half-grown figures pushing aside the palace maids and forcefully barging into the hall.
Empress Jiang was shocked." Jiao 'er, Hong' er…"
The two of them were dressed in imperial robes. One of them looked to be in his teens, while the other looked to be only eight or nine years old. They had extraordinary looks and bore a 70% resemblance to Ye Chen. Needless to say, these two were the Crown Prince Yin Jiao and his second son Yin Hong.
Ye Chen sighed in his heart when he saw his two cheap sons. However, a strange thought suddenly rose in his mind.
This is…sigh?
