Their hands touched by way of a phoenix hairpin. Zhao Qinglan suddenly said, "Actually, I'm quite envious of you."

Instead of saying "this palace," she used "I."

The volume was low enough that only the two of them could hear each other.

Su Jinpa was taken aback and looked up, only to see the Empress Dowager, who embodied motherhood and grace, already standing.

"Alright, everything is done, let's head back to the palace."

Zhao Qinglan did not stay at the Su family for long. After going through the motions, she was about to return to the palace.

The Su family members saw them out to the gate, bidding farewell to the Empress and Crown Prince as they departed.

From beginning to end, it was Zhao Qinglan who spoke. The Su family members didn't have a chance to speak unless they were asked a question.

Even Li Chen was only a guest.

In formal settings, the emperor and empress are the rulers of this country.

This will never change.

Seeing the royal procession disappear into the distance, Su Pingbei quietly approached and, glancing at the phoenix hairpin clutched in Su Jinpa's hand, sighed with admiration, "It seems this Empress Dowager is quite fond of you. She even gave you her own phoenix hairpin from before she got married."

Su Jinpa was still thinking about what Zhao Qinglan had said to her, frowning in thought and ignoring Su Pingbei.

"Jinpa, you said that when the Crown Prince ascends to the throne, you will surely be promoted to Empress. Then, our Empress, would she become the youngest Dowager Empress in the history of the Qin Empire"

With a bang.

Su Zhenning knocked on Su Pingbei's forehead and scolded, "Who gave you the guts to say such things"

Su Pingbei clutched his head, wincing in pain and said with a whimper, "I didn't say anything wrong, did I Our Prince ascending to the throne is just a matter of time. We can't possibly have two empresses at once, can we"

Su Zhenning was furious and kicked Su Pingbei with a foot, rebuking him: "I see you're getting more and more reckless and arrogant. Get back here and do the horse stance for three hours straight! I'll peel your skin if you miss even a second!"

Suping's face turned pale, and he wailed, "Father, three hours is too long! I have to return to the barracks."

Then add another pot of water, reducing it to two hours for you.

Su Zhen Ting glared at Su Ping Bei with a serious expression. "Some things you just can't say, no matter how much they fester in your belly. Once they leave your mouth, it's trouble. You don't even understand this basic principle If we keep going like this, our Su family will be ruined by you sooner or later."

Saying that, Su Zhetong strode away.

Su Pingbei wanted to say something more, but Su Jinpa said, "Don't argue with your father, he's right."

Clutching her phoenix hairpin, Su Jinpa glanced at Su Pingbei and said, "When will you ever understand your father's hard work"

After that, Su Jin curtsied and walked into the manor.

Su Pingbei scratched his head and sighed as he went back to accept his punishment.

Meanwhile, on the carriage that was already moving away, Zhao Qinglan looked at Li Chen who brazenly got into the carriage to ride with her with a stoic expression. Her vigilance had reached its peak.

In contrast to Zhao Qinglan's vigilance, Li Chen was far too carefree.

He raised his hand to lift the curtain, lazily saying: "Just past here is Zhao's Residence. Shouldn't you go back and see your mother"

"There's nothing to reply." Zhao Qinglan said coldly, "Since we dislike each other, it's best not to meet."

Li Chen turned his head to look at Zhao Qinglan, and said with a smile that wasn't quite a smile, "You don't seem to be in a good mood today"

"The prince's wedding, how could I not be happy Very good." Zhao Qinglan said calmly.

As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a big hand grab her wrist. Then, with a tremendous force, her body was uncontrollably thrown into Li Chen's embrace.ws gets back to Langting, then his ascension to the throne will be unstoppable.If he were just ignored by the prince, there might still be a way out. But now that the emperor has branded him as incomp...
