To Bai Situ, he was more interested in the latter, not the former.
Recently, Bai Yue's body had been deteriorating day by day. The wounds from his early years in the army and war were all showing in his later years.
This was most obvious in the past month. Every night, he would wake up in pain and find it difficult to sleep.
Knowing that he did not have much time left, he summoned his only son.
"After I die, you will resign from all of your duties in the court and return home."
Bai Situ did not understand why his father would do this, but he wanted to stay in the prosperous capital. He wanted to make a name for himself.
But this seemingly young emperor was actually very meticulous.
Not only did he immediately take control of the army, he was also secretly weakening the Bai family's power.
He naturally knew the reason. His mother's family was the same as the fourth prince's wife, Luo Wanyue's.
Therefore, this was the reason why he came to the appointment tonight.
"What do you want me to do?" Bai Situ glanced at him. "My father is still alive. I cannot make the decision for the Bai family. There is not much I can do."
"I only need brother Situ to meet one person."
"Who?"
"The empress."
In the next hour, Gu Fuyue told Bai Situ about Luo Qingchen's admiration for him.
Bai Situ only laughed. "I forgot about this long ago. I didn't know someone still cared."
"This person is not easy to deal with, but her feelings for brother Situ are different." Gu Fuyue said coldly, "If you can make her stand on our side, or take her out of the palace, leave the rest to me."
"Since the fourth prince has said so, I will do my best."
"The day after tomorrow, this prince will be entering the palace. You can come with me."
"Alright, it's a deal."
-
The next morning, Qianyao Palace.
"Empress, the empress dowager has been in seclusion for three days. Are we still going to pay respects?" Zixin frowned. "Actually, the emperor has no feelings for the empress dowager. It's fine if you don't go."
Luo Qingchen heard this and shook her head. "No, we must go."
She had a feeling that this master of Yi Kun Palace wasn't an enemy. She had to meet him to find out.
Just what was the background of the witch that the Lone Constellation Star mentioned?
She had changed into a simple and elegant embroidered dress. Her long black hair was combed into a bun, and there was a Lishui purple gold buyao on the top of her head.
It was simple yet elegant …
Ever since the Lonely Constellation Star's ascension, Yi Kun Palace had been exceptionally quiet.
Whether it was the front court or the back court, everyone knew that our new master did not care about the one in Yi Kun Palace. As for the reason, there were different opinions.
However, Luo Qingchen knew that the reason why Lone Constellation disliked his own mother was because he had personally witnessed a witch poisoning his own mother and replacing her position.
That young man had never doubted what he had seen with his own eyes.
However, she was rather concerned about the imperial edict that could allow the Lonely Constellation Star to ascend to the throne.
If this person was an enemy, she wouldn't have needed to support the Lonely Constellation Star. She could have supported a prince whose mother had died early.
However, she had taken out an imperial edict with the Lonely Constellation Star's name written on it.
Standing at the entrance of Yi Kun Palace, Luo Qingchen bowed deeply. "This concubine pays respects to the empress dowager."
Yi Kun Palace's doors were still tightly shut. There was no sound of movement.
Luo Qingchen kowtowed again. "This concubine pays respects to the empress dowager."
A second later, there was a thump as the doors to Yi Kun Palace opened.
