After finishing her speech, the Empress looked again at Ye Shaohua, waving her hand in irritation, "This time, don’t provoke the Prime Minister anymore."

But she was also very puzzled.

She had come here directly after the court session without notifying anyone else.

How could the Prime Minister know she was with Jun Qing?

Although puzzled, the Empress didn’t ask and just waited for the Prime Minister to arrive.

Ye Shaohua, upon hearing the Empress’s words, couldn’t help but sneer inwardly.

Not to mention she had submitted a paper to the Prime Minister, those officials in today’s Royal Court would definitely not bring up the second princess; and if they did, it would be only in passing.

Why would the Empress be so clear about it?

It was only because she had favored the second princess long ago.

To suppress her, the Empress truly went to great lengths.

The palace maid kneeling to one side felt excited when she heard the Empress mention the second princess’s proposal to manage the flood disaster and bring relief to the people, gaining praise from all officials.

She couldn’t help but look up at the Empress.

Her hometown suffered greatly from flooding.

This time, when the flood occurred, she was anxious inside, uncertain about the well-being of her parents and elder sister, worried for their lives.

Now, hearing the Empress say that the flood would surely be controlled, she almost jumped up in excitement, her admiration for the second princess reaching its peak.

And Jun Qing also sighed.

She couldn’t find anything to fault in the outstanding second princess.

Only, the Empress’s attitude today had surprised her.

She looked at her daughter, who seemed indifferent to everything. Well, it seemed like her daughter truly wasn’t suitable for the position.

Now that the second princess’s policy was accepted by all officials, her daughter fell far short of her.

Jun Qing had her own considerations, paying no attention to Ye Shaohua. She simply glanced faintly at the palace maid beside her, "Do you really like my second sister, the princess?"

She leaned her head on her hand and smiled as she looked at the palace maid.

Since yesterday, she had noticed this maid often stealthily glancing at Ye Mingxin.

In fact, in the original story, even though this maid didn’t play a major role, after the original host fell out of favor, she immediately left and, after searching through all her connections, finally managed to serve in Ye Mingxin’s palace as a eunuch.

She secretly admired Ye Mingxin and even took a hit for her.

Hearing Ye Shaohua’s words, the maid trembled even more, "Empress... This humble servant wouldn’t dare."

"What’s there to be afraid of," Ye Shaohua withdrew her gaze, speaking very indifferently, "Since you like my second sister so much, go and serve her."

"Empress!" The maid immediately looked up, her eyes devoid of joy, filled instead with panic!

Ye Shaohua took a sip of tea, "Don’t worry, I won’t hold onto your little mistake. I’ll speak to the manager to send me a few palace maids. You are dismissed."

The maid heard Ye Shaohua’s words.

A thought struck her, it seemed the Empress was not joking...

With that in mind, the maid’s eyes lit up, and she immediately kowtowed, hiding the elation deep in her eyes.

Her fingers trembled greatly.

Having been in the Imperial Palace for a month, her only regret was not being able to serve the second princess. Now that the Empress had given her a chance...

The maid quickly withdrew.

Of course, none of this concerned the Empress or Jun Qing and the others.

As the maid left, the Prime Minister dressed in maroon official attire hurried over.

"Empress..." As the Prime Minister entered and was about to speak, he caught sight of the Empress seated in the main position and Ni Lan beside her, "Empress?"

After a moment of surprise, he respectfully saluted the Empress.

Seeing the Prime Minister’s reaction, the Empress couldn’t help but speak, "Could it be that the Prime Minister is not here to see me?"

"This..." The Prime Minister hesitated for a moment, being an honest man, he wasn’t good at flattery and spoke directly, "Yes, Your Majesty, I am here to see the Empress."

"What do you need from the Empress?" The Empress pressed her lips together and spoke seriously, "Prime Minister, tell me the truth, did the Empress do something to anger you? If so, you must speak plainly. She has always been unruly, unlike Mingxin at all. I heard Mingxin gave Li Shangshu a letter about managing the flooding..."

The Empress knew full well the kind of person the Empress was, and the Prime Minister coming to see her could only mean trouble.

It must be that the Empress had caused some mishap again.

Right now, the Ye Family couldn’t compare to the Prime Minister’s power.

And yet, she showed such respect to Ye Shaohua?

**

After sending away the palace servants, Ye Shaohua also did not summon any new palace maids.

She wasn’t accustomed to waking up with someone staring at her every morning.

However, today was when the Prince of the Barbarian Country would surrender and come to the Imperial Capital.

Jun Qing had specially prepared clothes for Ye Shaohua because, after yesterday’s display, he didn’t know how to speak to her now and had a belly full of doubts that he hadn’t had a chance to ask.

He only instructed, "General Xuanyun will also be present today, he is the cousin of the Second Princess, and has been very close to her since childhood. You must not provoke the Second Princess today."

Hearing these words, Ye Shaohua’s hand, which was tying her sash, paused, "Hold on, Father, who did you say?"

"The Second Princess’s cousin, Qin Xuanyun," Jun Qing knew his daughter rarely concerned herself with court matters, so he wasn’t surprised, "Your maternal grandfather said that Qin Xuanyun’s martial arts are exceptionally strong and his methods are mysteriously unparalleled. Right now, the Ye Family is no match for the Qin Family. In the past, no matter how you treated the Second Princess, I didn’t interfere, but you mustn’t today."

"Oh," Ye Shaohua only then realized.

She clicked her tongue.

Quite impressive.

A valiant General?

Jun Qing, thinking his daughter had taken his words to heart, then led her towards the Palace Banquet.

Upon reaching the gates of the palace. _{freeωebnovēl.c૦m}

Unfortunately, they encountered the Second Princess.

Ye Mingxin and Qin Youming usually kept a low profile.

They avoided provoking Ye Shaohua and Jun Qing whenever possible, but today was different.

Regardless of rank and status, Jun Qing was higher than Qin Youming, and when they met, one of them would naturally need to step aside, yet today Qin Youming merely glanced at Jun Qing indifferently, not showing the slightest intention of considering Jun Qing a worthy opponent.

"Second Princess..." A palace maid beside her gently reminded the Second Princess.

The Second Princess, seeing the man in armor not far away, smiled nonchalantly, "Rest assured, even if the Grand Princess had several guts, she wouldn’t dare provoke us now. Does she think we’re still the old Qin Family?"
