Chapter 1068: Chapter 1068: Ready for Battle

He furrowed his brow, thinking, ”How can you just let your daughter eat like this without doing anything!”

Xia Ruqing nonchalantly replied,

”Yue Er is almost three years old; she needs to learn independence!”

”She should at least learn to use chopsticks!”

Zhao Junyao’s face darkened slightly.

Thinking, ”My little girl is surrounded by so many servants all the time. Forget three years old, even at thirty...”

Uh... thirty seems a bit exaggerated!

Zhao Junyao imagined a thirty-year-old woman who still can’t eat by herself and needs to be fed.

That would be quite embarrassing.

Alright, he had to admit Qingqing made a valid point.

Let her learn then!

But seeing Yue Er eat like this, it sure is heart-wrenching.

Zhao Junyao’s expression remained gloomy.

Xia Ruqing pretended not to notice and cheerfully added more chopsticks to the Emperor’s dish.

”Your Majesty, try this. Today’s pounded lotus root is especially good!”

”The stuffing inside is shrimp, very fresh and crisp!”

Zhao Junyao: ”...”

She was actually so happy, making him seem petty.

Zhao Junyao lightly pursed his thin lips, picked up his chopsticks, and ate quietly.

Xia Ruqing was inexplicably in a good mood.

Haha, finally a small triumph.

After lunch.

The two lay down on the bed for an afternoon nap.

Xia Ruqing was very pleased, but Zhao Junyao wore a worried look.

”Your Majesty, what’s wrong?” She wondered.

”You don’t need to worry about Yue Er; I know the limits!”

”Or, shall I just follow your wishes and stop teaching her?”

Seeing Zhao Junyao’s expression, she felt a bit apprehensive.

Zhao Junyao smiled faintly.

”No need!”

”We’ll follow your plan!”

Xia Ruqing: ”...” Then why isn’t he happy?!

”Your Majesty, is it because of the selection of fine ladies?”

To be honest, she was also curious why he would select such women!

Each looks ambitious, not easy to handle!

Zhao Junyao hugged her and smiled lightly.

”They all have their uses!”

”And when it comes to dealing with them, don’t hesitate!”

Xia Ruqing: ”...” Of course!

Though those women are trouble, the Emperor’s tactics seem formidable!

Perhaps it relates to court intrigue?

It’s not something she can control!

Xia Ruqing just laughed.

”Then I won’t worry. I’ll leave their ranks to you!”

Zhao Junyao nodded.

”Let’s talk later. Get some sleep!”

Finished speaking, he closed his eyes wearily.

Tired!

Jiangnan suffered from floods, and bandits from the northwest started moving, impacting many civilians.

Yesterday, an urgent report from the northwest was delivered directly to Zhaochen Palace.

He and several military officials discussed strategies through the night.

There’s a lot to handle in the coming half-month.

He couldn’t care less about the harem for now.

Leave them be; he’ll attend to them when he has time.

Xia Ruqing couldn’t say much more.

She obediently closed her eyes.

Suddenly, she felt a bit guilty.

’Did she wrongly blame him?’

’As an emperor, Zhao Junyao has seen all the beauties the world has to offer!’

’From plump to slim, what kind of woman hasn’t he seen or been with?’

’Could he really neglect her for these women?’

’Moreover, if he’d truly changed his heart, why bother choosing these women? Why not pick better ones?’

Didn’t he select any good girls because he was afraid of disappointing them?

Thinking about this, Xia Ruqing sincerely respected and admired him.

Truly, he’s a well-deserved favored child of the heavens!

Looking at his exhausted sleeping face, she felt a piercing pain.

He considers her so much, yet she still doesn’t understand.

But instead of being angry, he is so tolerant!

Xia Ruqing’s eyes became slightly red.

She gently reached out and touched his resolute face.

Her fingertips slowly traced the contours of his profile.

With a heartfelt sigh.

’If only you weren’t the Emperor, what a blessing it would be!’

Unfortunately...

(Life can never be perfect, can it?)

...

As the month drew to a close.

The weather was neither cold nor hot; the sky clear and bright; the air filled with the scent of osmanthus.

The Imperial Garden was bustling with large blooming chrysanthemums.

Bright as Yunjin, fragrance stretching far.

Attracting several beautifully dressed palace ladies to come for enjoyment.

Within the flourishing flowerbed.

Two gorgeously dressed, young girls with flowing hairstyles chased each other with pink fans.

”Second sister, wait for me!”

”Third sister, hurry up; the butterfly will run away!”

In front of them, a large blue butterfly with white flowers really perched on a pinkish-purple chrysanthemum.

The sunshine spread a layer of golden dust over the garden.

The butterfly bathed in sunlight, elegantly flapping its wings, like a heavenly fairy.

The two girls held their breath, gradually approached with fans.

Finally, they lunged forward, the butterfly fluttered away.

The two girls collided.

Each let out an ”ouch,” holding their heads with wrinkled brows, faces full of frustration.

The surrounding palace attendants rushed over.

”Princess, are you alright?”

”Is the princess okay!”

After rubbing their heads, once the pain eased.

They brushed off the palace maids and eunuchs, went off to play again.

...

At the nearby Qifang Pavilion.

Consort Zheng and Consort Yun gathered to drink tea.

Consort Zheng laughed.

”The Third Princess raised by sister is becoming more clever and lovely!”

”No wonder last month, the Emperor visited sister a few times!”

Consort Yun lightly fanned and laughed.

”What’s a few visits! He just ate and left!”

Consort Zheng hurriedly laughed.

”Isn’t that enough? Last month I saw the Emperor just once, didn’t even eat!”

”Sister, you should be grateful!”

The Emperor and Empress have deep affection, witnessed by both court and harem.

There’s no competing with them.

Living honestly ensures good days.

Consort Yun also smiled faintly.

”I am definitely grateful!”

After enduring for so many years, unexpectedly regaining the consort rank.

Though the rank of concubine is also the principal of a palace.

But the consort rank and concubine rank are entirely different.

Even the provisions are doubled!

Holding a principal rank now, having half a daughter under her, what else could she be unsatisfied with?

Consort Zheng gently smiled and took a sip of tea.

After admiring the scenery for a while, they chatted idly.

Somehow they discussed this year’s fine ladies.

Consort Zheng said,

”This year’s six are really something!”

”They seem... not easy to deal with!”

Consort Yun laughed.

”Easy or not, it’s none of our business!”

”Did they expect to become a Noble Consort after entering the palace?”

Even Consort Hui and Consort Cheng, who have always been esteemed by the Emperor, are just consorts.

What about those young new girls entering the palace!

”Indeed!”

Consort Zheng happily took another sip of tea.

”They’d best behave themselves.”

”Anything regarding finding trouble, best not fall into our hands!”

Consort Yun laughed brightly.

”What if they do?”

”I’m itching for some trouble handling!”

With that, they exchanged smiles and continued enjoying the flowers.

...

In fact, it’s not just them being cautious.

Even Consort Hui and Consort Cheng are prepared for anything.

In the deep palace, rising securely to the consort ranking, none are fools.

Not causing trouble, and definitely not fearing any!

Thinking about it...

Perhaps Xia Ruqing doesn’t need to worry after all, those below her can handle it!
