Seeing that the atmosphere was really too awkward, Nie Shuangshuang could only smile and said softly, "I have heard before that there is often music playing in Zhongcui Palace, and sometimes it will not stop until midnight.

Your Majesty is busy with state affairs and rarely visits the harem, but as the Queen, I know this best. Today, it was because Your Majesty has been avoiding the Lan family's sister that she made a mistake because she didn't understand Your Majesty's daily habits. Your Majesty governs the world with benevolence, so you won't get angry even for these small mistakes, right?"

She stood on the moral high ground to suppress him. If Lan Yin was the daughter of a general with a strong background, and the emperor who ruled the country with benevolence and filial piety, it would be impossible for him to kill the daughter of a general just because the concubine wore a piece of clothing and played the piano, which would chill the hearts of people all over the world.

Song Chuji had a cold face. Although he was no longer angry, he remained silent. He looked strong and did not intend to back down. He ruled the country with benevolence mostly to calm the chattering mouths of those literati. Those who had been through life and death with Song Chuji knew that this man was extremely cruel and was truly a demon that should not be provoked.

"Other things are fine, but she is just a concubine, and she wears red and green all day and runs around the palace. Doesn't she take the Queen and me seriously?"

Nie Shuangshuang glanced at the osmanthus soup on Song Chuji's desk and sighed. Lan Yinruo really couldn't even find a way to plead for her.

Song Chuji likes the type of people who are simple and elegant and don't compete for the white moonlight, but she is charming. Song Chuji doesn't like sweets and prefers coarse grains. This osmanthus soup smells sweet. When Song Chuji reviews memorials, he is as serious and solemn as a judge in the yamen, but she insists on playing the piano and singing.

Why don’t you know how to avoid lightning?

"Your Majesty, I feel sorry for my sister. I don't have much talent for music, so I can't entertain your Majesty. But your sister is different. Her piano playing is one of the best in the whole palace. I was thinking of making your Majesty happy, but I didn't expect that I would end up making things worse."

Nie Shuangshuang knelt on the ground and pleaded softly, "Mother Lan is young and grew up with General Lan in the frontier. Entering the harem will be very restrictive for her. If she still has to be humble and try to please everyone, wouldn't that be a loss of dignity and bearing?

Your Majesty should understand your sister's true feelings instead of threatening her with violence."

She is the virtuous queen who is not jealous, truly magnanimous and generous, the model for the country, and a person who has established a solid foundation.

Song Chuji stared at her for a long time, then came to his senses and responded, "I really found the most virtuous queen in the world!"

These words were said in a sarcastic tone. Usually when he was like this, he would torture her madly in terms of sleeping with her. Nie Shuangshuang felt her legs trembling even as she knelt.

But she still managed to force a smile: "Your Majesty, although the Imperial Concubine sister cannot see the emperor's heart very well, this sincerity is the most rare. Your Majesty should reward you, so that you can feel at ease."

Lan Yinruo looked at the petite and frail queen kneeling in front of her and her thoughts were confused for a moment. She really couldn't understand why the queen spoke for her like this. It was obvious that she didn't listen to anything she said and went against her, but she seemed to not care at all.

"The queen is kind, and the Western Regions have recently sent in many new things as tribute, so give them to my beloved concubine."

Song Chuji glanced at Lan Yinruo coldly and waved his hand to signal her to leave.

Lan Yinruo got up trembling, turned around and quickly walked out of the imperial study, still feeling a lingering fear. His Majesty was so furious just now that he wanted to strip her clothes off, but now the Queen suppressed his anger and let her go?

Everyone says that the Empress is kind and weak, and is controlled by His Majesty like a velvet flower. But judging from what we have seen just now, it is not certain who is controlling whom.

As soon as Lan Yinruo left the imperial study, Wang Xiaorui came to greet her eagerly. He said with a smile, "Your Majesty is quite blessed. When His Majesty is furious, he usually punishes severely to relieve his hatred. It is rare for you to escape unscathed and even be blessed like Your Majesty did. Your Majesty has always been important in His Majesty's heart."

Lan Yinruo twitched the corners of her mouth, but she really couldn't laugh. Her legs were still weak. If the Queen hadn't arrived in time, she didn't know how today would have ended.

Wang Xiaorui smiled and said, "The Queen asked for mercy for you today, so His Majesty will inevitably say a few words to you. If you are a person who remembers the Queen's kindness, you should stop being mean to her in the future. Be more respectful to her. It's good for everyone."

Lan Yinruo sneered and rolled her eyes, saying, "Look at our queen who doesn't fight or compete and is like a fairy. She has won over everyone in the palace. Even you, Wang Xiaorui, the favorite of His Majesty, still praises her."

He just escaped death and started to commit suicide again.

"Of course, the Queen's beauty is unmatched by anyone else. I am just reminding Her Majesty not to forget the lesson learned today!"

Wang Xiaorui looked at her coldly. Having a personality is a good thing, and being outspoken is also a result of personality, but in the palace, I am afraid that my life is too long!

Lan Yinruo didn't want to say more to him, but suddenly thought of something and spoke. "Eunuch Wang has been with His Majesty for so long, have you ever heard what kind of folk date paste cake His Majesty likes to eat?"

That kind of pastry was not made in the palace. The pastries in the palace focused on sweetness and complex carving techniques rather than simple and delicious ingredients.

Wang Xiaorui shook his whisk and said, "This is your Majesty's private matter. I dare not speak nonsense casually."

Lan Yinruo took off the hairpin on her head and gave it to him, saying, "I have heard others mention it by chance, but I have never dared to confirm it."

Wang Xiaorui accepted the hairpin and said with a smile, "Your Majesty is right. Your Majesty doesn't like to eat the snacks in the palace. He only likes to eat jujube paste cakes. The small kitchen makes a portion for Your Majesty almost every few days."

Lan Yinruo opened her mouth in shock for a moment. It was really like this. What Nie Shuangshuang said to her was actually true!

Is there really someone in this world who is so generous that she would share her husband and love with others without feeling jealous at all?

How can this be a normal person?

Even the reincarnated gods would not be so pure-hearted and disillusioned with the world.

In the imperial study, Song Chuji suddenly pulled Nie Shuangshuang into his arms, wrapped his arms around her slender waist, and looked mysterious.

"The queen is truly virtuous. Not only does she not get jealous or make things difficult for the concubines in the harem, but she also tries every possible way to make them appear in front of me and win my favor.

Nie Shuangshuang, should I say that you are too pedantic to read books, your head is full of women's virtues and female commandments and you don't know how to adapt, or should I say that you are cold as ice and your heart is too hard to warm up. "

The man looked helpless. In his opinion, only if she didn't love him would she push him to someone else without a care. Sure enough, Nie Shuangshuang still had someone else in her heart, or she was cold-hearted and didn't love anyone.
