”Send Imperial Concubine Xue back to the palace and ask for the imperial physician. ”My beloved concubine, the prime minister and several ministers are still waiting for me to discuss the political situation. I'll come see you again tonight.” After a pause, Qin Shuo added, ”In the future, without my permission, I am not allowed to visit.”

Imperial Concubine Xue's crying movements were stiff. She thought the emperor was blaming her for coming to the Imperial Palace without permission.

Unbeknownst to him, Qin Shuo was thinking: The empress even dared to hit Gu, how could a few empress concubines be a match for her?

Sad, he hurried back to the study room, where a few courtiers were already waiting.

Meanwhile, Hu Xiao was in his own palace, crossing his legs. He was drawing and writing his daily work and rest schedule while listening to Zhilan's praise and flattery.

”Empress, you were so impressive just now!” Zhilan clapped her hands and said excitedly, ”I can't stand Dongting Kingdom's women. They always act like the weaklings in charge of the wind, and they even have a lot of rules. Especially Imperial Concubine Xue. She would always come before the emperor and speak ill of you. This time, let's show her some colors so that the women in the East Court's imperial harem know that we, the south Yue, aren't a vegetarian! ”

Ye Zichen raised his eyebrows and smiled.

She now understood that this land was divided into the Eastern Court, Southern Yue, Northern Qiang, and Western Frontier.

East Court and South Vietnam have been allies since ancient times, for the good of both countries, Hu Xiao was conferred the title of East Court Queen. In the future, her child would become the king of the Eastern Court Country.

Nonsense, okay?

Hu Xiaoxiao rolled his eyes. She accepted the teleportation, but that didn't mean she accepted the identity of the empress and her wife!

So what if Qin Shuo was the emperor?

To Hu Xiao, he was just a stranger!

Why hadn't she transmigrated into an ordinary South Vietnamese woman?

What was the use of having such a noble identity if one wanted to dress up as the princess of the Southern Yue who had become the empress of the Eastern Court?

Hu Xiao had heard it from Zhilan. The Eastern Courtyard adored literature, while the Southern Yue was a martial artist. In the Southmoon Kingdom, women were no worse than men. There were even some female generals that could beat a man until he lost his helmet and armor!

The East Court was not as open as the South Vietnamese. Women had an underground status in the East Court and needed to rely on men to survive.

He angrily poked the brush into the paper and drew a huge period.
