Chapter 1070: The Phoenix Empress

Ning Shu had Mu Yao stay for breakfast, but Mu Yao seemed a little preoccupied during the meal. When Ning Shu noticed, she allowed Mu Yao to go.

Mu Yao curtsied towards Ning Shu, then hastily ran back towards her residence like there was fire licking at her heels. The beauties in her residence had made breakfast for her so if she returned too late, they’d throw a tantrum again.

Mu Yao was very different from the people here who believed in female chauvinism. She treated her husbands very well and was a good woman.

After breakfast, Ning Shu started reading through the memorials. Although she had the original host’s memories, she still couldn’t make sense of these memorials even after staring at them for half the day. These memorials spent forever on incomprehensible preambles before finally getting to the main point.

The reason why it was so hard to be an emperor was all because of the subordinates.

Furthermore, there wasn’t a single punctuation mark in the entire memorial. She felt about to suffocate after reading just one sentence. She had no idea where to pause in the sentence.

What a headache!

She forced herself to read through two memorials, but that was her limit. Her head was spinning, so she closed the memorial. The court lady said, “Your Majesty, when the phoenix empress heard that Your Majesty wasn’t feeling well, he went to simmer a nourishing soup.”

The phoenix... The phoenix empress!?

Ning Shu felt like she was struck by lightning. She had thought that this task was simple, but she completely forgot that Mu Nichang was an emperor and still had a harem with so many male concubines.

Jesus. She suddenly felt even more dizzy.

Her lips twitched. Could it be that she still had to grace the men of the inner palace? Her kidneys would give out.

The court lady was waiting for Ning Shu’s reply. Ning Shu rubbed her forehead and said, “Have... Have the phoenix empress come in.”

A man dressed in white walked in. This man was handsome, but his every movement was dignified and imposing. He was holding a food box and curtsied towards Ning Shu before taking the soup out of the box. He said gently, “Changqing salutes Your Majesty.”

Mu Nichang’s phoenix empress was Liu Changqing. He was the father of the crown prince. Ning Shu thought back through the storyline. It seemed that Mu Nichang had thrown him in the cold palace and had never seen him again before she died.

Liu Changqing’s looks seemed to come straight out of a painting. His hair was tied back slightly and he had only a single spotted bamboo flute hanging by his waist. He was a man with a very distinctive temperament.

“Many thanks, Phoenix Empress.” Ning Shu looked at the soup, then said, “We’ll drink it later.”

Liu Changqing smiled faintly. He didn’t insist that that Ning Shu drank the soup and just said, “Your Majesty should drink it while it’s hot. If it cools down, it won’t taste good anymore.”

Ning Shu nodded, then continued looking at the memorials. Liu Changqing saluted, then turned and withdrew. As the spotted bamboo flute and the jade pendant at his waist knocked against each other, they emitted a low tone.

Liu Changqing truly was a man with a lot of charm.

Ning Shu didn’t drink the soup and just bestowed it to the court lady. A strange indescribable feeling had appeared in her heart when she was facing Liu Changqing. This feeling wasn’t hers, it had come from the original host.

She didn’t know what this meant, but it made her wary of him.
