After His Majesty's rebirth, he personally taught the queen to abuse the scumbag

next morning

The cold wind brought a hint of chill. It had been raining for several days, but now the sun finally appeared. The yellow leaves on the branches swayed gently in the breeze, and most of them had already withered and fallen to the ground.

The sun shone through the thin clouds onto the golden roof of the Ripple Palace. A faint scent of sandalwood lingered in the hall. A figure looming behind the gauze curtain gently stood up.

Cheng Mingran felt dizzy and he supported himself on the bed with one hand and pressed his temple with the other, then he raised his body lazily.

Cheng Mingran's hair was loose, with a few strands of black hair hanging down her jade-like neck, adding a bit of charm. Her face was a little pale, and her eyes were a little blurry, as if she had not yet fully sobered up from a hangover.

She slowly sat up from the bed and now felt a splitting headache. Last night... was she drunk?

Cheng Mingran tried to calm down, and the fragmented memories in his mind emerged bit by bit. Thinking of last night's drunkenness, his face became stiff.

She stroked her brows gently, trying to relax her frown. Her dizzy head reminded her all the time that last night's drunkenness was not without cost.

On the small table on the bed, she walked to the window holding the edge of the bed without disturbing anyone. She opened the window and let in the cold wind outside, trying to dispel the alcohol smell that remained in her body.

Cheng Mingran looked at the sky outside the window which was gradually getting brighter. She stood silently by the window, thinking about what happened last night. She felt mixed emotions.

Even she herself had not expected to get drunk this time. She seldom drank alcohol before, and even if she drank occasionally, it was only fruit wine and rice wine suitable for girls. Like yesterday... it was indeed the first time.

She could no longer remember the memories of last night, but she vaguely remembered that she seemed to have taken the initiative to undress in front of Ji Lingzhou and even wanted to hug him.

Cheng Mingran sighed. It seemed that she had done something wrong last night. She just wanted to please him, but she ended up getting drunk. She didn't expect the wine to be so strong.

The door outside was pushed open. Cheng Mingran looked over and saw Shuhua coming in.

"Why is your Majesty standing in front of the window? It's windy outside. What if you catch a cold and get sick?" Shuhua saw Cheng Mingran standing by the window and opened it, so he hurried over.

Shuhua closed the window again: "It's just dawn and it's the coldest time of the year. Why don't you sleep a little longer, Your Majesty?" She helped Cheng Mingran to the side.

Cheng Mingran shook her head: "I can't sleep." she said.

Shuhua helped Cheng Mingran sit down and said, "Is your Majesty feeling unwell? You drank a lot of wine last night, so you might have a headache. How about I go and call the imperial physician to take a look?"

Cheng Mingran stopped her: "No, I just feel a little dizzy, it's nothing."

"Your Majesty drank too much last night. His Majesty has already ordered someone to prepare a wine-soaking soup. I'll have someone bring it over in a while." Shuhua said as he called someone outside to prepare hot water.

When Cheng Mingran heard the word "Your Majesty", her heart moved: "Your Majesty...when did you leave last night?" she asked.

"Your Majesty stayed in our palace last night and did not leave. He left early this morning because he had to attend the morning court." Shuhua replied.

He actually stayed here the whole night? So... he shouldn't be angry, right? Cheng Mingran was annoyed. Why did he drink so much?

She originally thought that one or two glasses would be fine, but after two glasses she couldn't control herself. If she had known this, she shouldn't have prepared such strong alcohol in the first place.

"Empress Shufei." A palace maid came in from outside.

"What's the matter?" Shuhua asked.

"Replying to Queen Concubine Shu, the Queen Concubine just sent someone to say that the Queen Concubine will be holding a winter banquet in three days, and Queen Concubine Shu is invited to attend." said the palace maid.

Winter feast...

"I understand. Please leave." Cheng Mingran replied.

This winter banquet was nothing special, but it was also a custom. In addition to the concubines in the harem, there were also court ladies and young ladies from official families who participated, so it was quite lively.

Cheng Mingran used to be the person who was most afraid of being alone, so every time she encountered such a lively scene, she couldn't wait to get there, but this time...

She felt a little annoyed when she thought about dealing with these people again, and she was sure that there would be a verbal battle.

"Let me help Her Majesty to wash and dress first." Shuhua said.

Cheng Mingran nodded. That was all. Even if she didn't want to attend these banquets now, what would it matter? She couldn't just hide here and not see anyone.

Besides, it would be a bit unreasonable for her not to go now, so she simply stopped hesitating.

In addition to sending the news to the six palaces, the queen naturally couldn't leave out Ji Lingzhou. When Zichen Palace received the news, it was already after Ji Lingzhou left the court.

He didn't have any objection. These matters had always been handled by the Queen herself, and he almost never got involved.

Since it was a custom, he couldn't just cancel it for no reason. But...

"Has Concubine Shu in Lianyi Palace woken up?" he asked.

"I heard that Concubine Shu woke up just after His Majesty left for a while. Maybe it was because she drank alcohol last night, so she felt a little dizzy. The painting and calligraphy girl beside Concubine Shu helped her drink sobering soup, and then she felt much better." Li Sheng replied.

Fortunately, he had anticipated that His Majesty might ask about this matter, so he had arranged for people to guard it. Otherwise, if His Majesty suddenly asked such a question, who would be able to answer it?

You know, the emperor in the past would not ask these messy questions. As the king of a country, would he care about whether a concubine has woken up?

After hearing Li Sheng's answer, Ji Lingzhou didn't know what to think. The scene of Cheng Mingran getting drunk yesterday reappeared in his mind bit by bit. He just wondered if this girl could still remember those things after getting drunk.

He felt uncomfortable when he thought that Cheng Mingran would forget everything that happened last night after waking up.

If she forgot it so easily, wouldn't that girl be too "cheap"? Ji Lingzhou suddenly became curious about what Cheng Mingran's expression would be if she still remembered what happened yesterday.

Now that he had this idea, Ji Lingzhou acted quickly and immediately ordered Li Sheng to go to Lianyi Palace.

and……

"Move all the memorials from today over there." Ji Lingzhou said.

Li Sheng: “???” Move all the memorials over there? Your Majesty, are you going to handle official business in Lianyi Palace?
