I don’t know if the emperor meant what he said, at least the queen didn’t believe a word of it.

However, the emperor did not read any of the articles about Mo Xiao's impeachment, and in the end they were all thrown into the brazier.

The queen looked on coldly and said nothing. She only took care of the emperor's daily life every day. She did everything herself and never pretended to be an adult.

On this day, the queen was feeding the emperor some soup, when suddenly there was a noise outside.

The emperor liked silence since he fell ill, and he couldn't bear to hear noisy sounds. Therefore, he had been recuperating in his room and had never seen other people. Now that he heard these noisy sounds, his brows suddenly furrowed.

The queen also frowned and looked outside: "Who is it?"

The little eunuch hurried in, looking a little flustered: "Go back to your majesty, come back to the empress, yes, it's Concubine Li, she wants to see your majesty."

The queen glanced at the emperor's face and said softly: "Didn't I tell her that your majesty needs to rest and stay away from people?"

The little eunuch was about to cry but had no tears. He stuttered when he spoke: "Empress Li, she didn't come alone. There were several ministers around her. They said that His Majesty had not shown up for a long time. They were really worried. I have to see with my own eyes that His Majesty is well..."

After hearing this, the queen slowly put down the medicine bowl in her hand, turned to look at the emperor, and said softly: "It seems that Sister Li Fei doesn't believe me."

She brought these ministers to the palace. Don’t you understand what her purpose is? Aren't you just afraid that the queen will hold the emperor hostage?

The emperor's face turned blue and white, and he didn't speak for a long time.

The queen stood up and said in a low tone: "So... I'd better go back."

The emperor reached out and grabbed the queen's wrist and said in a deep voice: "You are right here."

After that, he looked at the little eunuch and said coldly: "Let them get in."

After the young eunuch went out to deliver the message, the emperor asked the queen to freshen and change his clothes.

The queen looked at him with a bit of heartache in her eyes.

"It's my fault," the queen said softly while buttoning the emperor's buttons. "It's because I am incompetent and unconvincing. Otherwise, Sister Li Fei would not doubt me so much. If not, Your Majesty would not have to delay. If you handle this matter with your sick body in mind, you can cultivate with peace of mind."

The emperor's face didn't look very good, but he still reached out and patted the queen on the shoulder: "You have done a good job as queen, but some people are not satisfied."

After everything was settled, the emperor walked out with the support of the queen. After sitting down, he called Concubine Li and the ministers to come in.

Concubine Li and the ministers felt bad after they were allowed in. When they saw the emperor sitting upright on the chair as soon as they entered the door, their faces turned pale in an instant, just like the sick emperor.

They had made preparations for the emperor to be seriously ill and unconscious, and for the queen to hold the emperor hostage to order the princes, but now...that was not the case.

Concubine Li was stunned for a moment when she saw the emperor, but then she quickly realized what was happening.

Her eyes were red, and she took a few steps over and knelt at the emperor's feet. She choked with tears and said, "Your Majesty, I have finally met you. These days, I can't eat or sleep at night. I am worried about your majesty. Now, Finally met someone.”

She cried so sincerely that the pear blossoms were covered with rain, but the emperor sitting on top of her didn't even look at her.

The emperor had no expression on his face and said coldly: "I'm not dead yet, who am I crying for?"
