Jian Qingqing smiled. “Not yet, I have sothing to say to His Majesty.”
“Then accompany to eat sothing first. Is there an ergency? You’re so early.”
Jian Qingqing looked at the Empress’s smiling but sowhat worried face. She hesitated and did not say anything.
“It’s nothing much. It’s just about the bicycles that His Majesty asked to make.”
The Empress also knew about this matter. She sighed and said, “Qingqing, don’t bla him. There’s no other way.”
Jian Qingqing quickly shook her head and said, “No, no, no. How can I bla the Emperor? I understand. Also, we will definitely find a solution to this matter. You don’t have to worry too much.”
The Empress smiled a little profoundly but did not say anything.
Jian Qingqing had been waiting for the Emperor in the Empress’s Palace. She did not even go when Princess Anning ca to play with her.
Princess Anning still had an innocent look. The Emperor and Empress protected her very well and did not know what was happening outside.
She pursed her lips. “Alright, alright. I’ll accompany you and wait for Imperial Father to end the court session. I don’t know what’s going on these few days, but Imperial Father seems to be a little unhappy.”
Although she did not know anything, she could more or less feel the calm before the storm. The tense atmosphere in the Imperial Palace recently made her sowhat uneasy.
She did not expect to wait for half a day. Even until noon, the Emperor still had not returned from the court eting.
The Empress beca more and more anxious. Just as she was about to order people to investigate, the head palace maid she had just sent returned.
She bowed respectfully and said, “Your Highness, the Emperor has already left court, but he is now in the study with the other officials to discuss matters.”
The Empress felt that this matter was becoming more and more difficult. She frowned and ordered, “Order people to send the food to the Imperial Study for the Emperor and the various officials.”
Princess Anning felt that the atmosphere was getting tenser and tenser. She held Jian Qingqing’s arm in a panic and asked nervously, “Qingqing, did sothing happen?
Jian Qingqing shook her head and comforted Princess Anning. “It should be fine, it’s just that it’s going to be sumr soon. Maybe the Emperor is busy with these things.”
Hearing this, Princess Anning was slightly relieved. It was common for the Emperor to be busy and not have ti to eat, but today she felt a little different.
Jian Qingqing waited here for a long ti. It was not until the afternoon that the Emperor ca in a hurry, followed by the Crown Prince and Ming Zhiyan.
When the Emperor saw Jian Qingqing, his brows relaxed and he asked,
‘Qingqing, is there sothing you need?”
They went to the Empress’ Study. Jian Qingqing sat down and asked with a frown, “Your Majesty, is the matter very difficult to handle?”
No one in the Emperor’s mind would know about this. He nodded his head randomly. “Yu City has been captured.”
Yu City was the first big city to guard the southwest, and it was also the most important city. It was connected to the Qing Kingdom, and the fall of Yu city was a heavy blow to the great Wei. If they couldn’t take it back, they might continue to lose a large area of land.
Jian Qingqing was extrely shocked. She muttered in disbelief, “How could this be…”
The Emperor was not in a good mood either. Early in the morning, he had been discussing with the ministers on how to take back Yu City, but no one could give him a good idea.
There were many people in their Great Wei, and all of them were good n who were good at fighting, but what they lacked were money and food.
Without food, the n of Great Wei would not be able to display their abilities. Furthermore, the people of Yu city needed to be appeased. All of this required money and food to support them..
