Xu Jinyi snorted coldly.

"Mother Queen, I think the censor just has nothing to do and is full to hold on. You should give her more work."

"He just stares at me day after day, just because he doesn't like me, and comes to complain to you every two days."

"It's all trivial matters. She can do it for hours. Mother Queen, you don't mind it."

"The most important thing is that she knows that you are pregnant, Queen Mother, and she still wants to report this matter. What does she want to do? Is she deliberately trying to make you angry?"

Thinking of the censor, Xu Jinyi was so angry that he couldn't hold it back and continued.

"In my opinion, Queen Mother, you should punish her and ask her what she wants to do?"

"As a royal censor, what is your main responsibility? Could it be that Cheng Cheng is keeping an eye on the mother-emperor's family affairs, so what's the use of her?"

"They didn't do their job well and they just wanted to cause trouble for me. The character and integrity of those court officials were not found out at all. Mr. Wen was said to be corrupt. Why didn't you see him and check it out?"

Saying that, Xu Jinyi changed the topic: "Mother, you should ask someone to check the censor. There are so many people in the court, it is impossible that nothing happened. She must have received the benefits."

The more he talked, the more Xu Jinyi felt like this: "Mother, you must maintain the political order of the court and prevent officials from colluding in corruption. You must investigate the censor carefully."

The empress was so angry at her clear logical thinking: "Are you going to beat me up? The censor is also doing it for your own good. I hope you will behave well and be careful in your words and deeds."

Xu Jinyi looked disgusted: "I think she wants to kill me. She wants to make you hate me and hate me."

"Otherwise, why are you talking so much? Are you deliberately worrying the Queen Mother? She just makes a fuss out of a molehill. She has cheated on me so many times over the years. Is one of them a major incident?"

"She just doesn't like me. Otherwise, why wouldn't I see her staring at others?"

The empress was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt that this was the case. The censor seemed to have been keeping an eye on her daughter these years.

No small thing is spared.

Thinking of the last time she heard her chatting with her brother over wine, something strange flashed in the empress's eyes.

It seems like it’s time for a closer look at this censor.

"Then you can't carry a foreigner in the street, what's that like?"

Xu Jinyi raised her head and retorted: "Where is the foreign man? Ah Chen is obviously my future prince. What's wrong if I hug my prince? It means that we have a good relationship."

"Mother Emperor, please ask Ah Chen to get up first. My knees hurt after kneeling for a long time." Xu Jinyi coquettishly tugged at the sleeves of the empress.

"Get up."

"Jiaojiao, the sweet-scented osmanthus cake you made that day was quite delicious. The Queen Mother feels her appetite is whetted. Please make some more."

Xu Jinyi blinked and stared at Gu Chen not wanting to leave: "Mother, didn't you say that if a woman is far away from the kitchen, she can just let the kitchen do the cooking?"

"Why, the Queen Mother wants to eat what you cook, but she can't?"

Xu Jinyi nodded like a chicken: "Yes, yes, yes."

Before leaving the house, Xu Jinyi turned around and said, "Mother Queen, then you are not allowed to bully Ah Chen. I will be back soon."

After saying that, he ran away.

Under the empress' scrutinizing gaze, Gu Chen stood up straight, neither humble nor arrogant.

His character made the empress less prejudiced against him.

But he still spoke with dignity and seriousness: "Gu Chen, you are so brave, relying on your good looks, without any sense of restraint."

"It's normal for a woman to have three husbands and four attendants, not to mention that King Xian is my beloved daughter, but you actually want to monopolize King Xian. Do you know your guilt?!"

Gu Chen had known for a long time that this would be the result. As a princess, how could she only guard him.

But there was still a dense pain in my heart, and my face turned pale.

Seeing that he didn't say a word, the empress thought she had guessed correctly, and her face became even colder.

"King Xian has always loved beauties, especially romantic ones. Don't take what you say sometimes too seriously."

"Her lord can be a handsome and courteous official, but since she wants you to be her lord, I can agree to it."

"But in the future, there will be many side lords and servants. You must show the bearing of a true lord and avoid jealousy, let alone try to monopolize the idle king. Is it possible for you to do it?"

Gu Chen's heart ached, his big palms under his sleeves clenched tightly, and his veins swelled.

The two were in a stalemate for a long time.

Finally, Gu Chen knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I am sorry that Cao Min cannot agree to your request. King Xian promised that there will only be Cao Min in the future, so Cao Min will not go against her wishes."

Before the empress became furious, Gu Chen continued: "What if... what if one day, she falls in love with someone else and wants to marry the side king, a common man..."

"The common people will never stop it."

However, the empress was still furious. She even slapped the table hard and stood up, shouting sternly: "Presumptuous!"

"It is a great blessing for you to marry King Xian. By saying this, you are asking King Xian to break his promise to you and never marry another person in his life."

"What are your intentions? If you don't agree, King Xian will have scruples. You are simply..."

Gu Chen smiled bitterly: "If one day, King Xian personally tells me that he wants to marry someone else, ordinary people will not hesitate."

The empress looked at him intently, knowing that he was the one who cared about her daughter now, so she didn't embarrass him too much.

"I hope you will do what you say. If I give you a side king in the future, you can't stop me."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

In the hot summer weather, Xu Jinyi was so busy in the kitchen that she broke into a sweat.

Finally, the sweet-scented osmanthus cake was driven out in the shortest possible time, and he ran back with it.

She is worried!

She was worried that her mother would say unpleasant things to Gu Chen.

But when she returned to Qinzheng Hall, the atmosphere was particularly harmonious.

"Mother, the sweet-scented osmanthus cake is here." Xu Jinyi ran out of breath.

The empress saw that her beautiful face was red and covered with sweat, so she quickly took out a handkerchief and wiped it for her.

"Why are you running so fast? Will the Queen Mother eat him?"

"Hehe, aren't I worried that Ah Chen might accidentally offend you when he enters the palace for the first time?"

"Mother, where is the imperial edict? I..." I saw the empress wiping, and her hand suddenly stopped on Xu Jinyi's neck.

Thinking of something, Xu Jinyi pulled her clothes with an unnatural expression on her face.

"Hehe...there are a lot of mosquitoes lately."

The empress scratched her daughter and said, "Well, it's a big mosquito."

Gu Chen looked up at the sky and took a sip of tea silently.

Originally, the empress wanted to wait and see if Xu Jinyi was hot for three minutes or if she really liked her. But now it seems that she has eaten her up.

Thinking about it, it would be impossible not to get married.

He sighed, wrote the imperial edict, and gave some things to the two of them.

Xu Jinyi stood aside and kept mumbling: "This is good. There is a string of beads in the Queen Mother's warehouse. That one is also good. Write it down."

"I remember there was also a piece of fine fabric. It was slippery and the color matched Ah Chen. I wrote on it."

"He has fair skin, it will look good in his clothes."
