The emperor wasn’t very happy today.

The unhappy emperor went to find the empress in a rage.

“Why didn’t Zhen (NT : I for the Emperor, only him can use it) have sweet porridge for breakfast today?!” — The Emperor, who loved sweets, expressed his indignation.

Without lifting his eyes, the Empress flipped a page of his book.

“Because Your Majesty has a cavity in his mouth..”

The Emperor exclaimed, “??? Zhen didn’t even know Zhen had a cavity; how did you know?”

“Because I could tell.”

The Emperor was shocked. “??!!”

The emperor wasn’t very happy today.

The unhappy emperor went to find the empress in a rage.

“Why has this year’s autumn hunting event been delayed???” The Emperor expressed a strong desire to hunt in the royal hunting grounds!

The Empress flipped another page of the book, slightly raising his eyes.

“Because there were other events planned ahead of schedule..”

“Zhen knows! So why has the winter hot spring event been moved to autumn?!” The Emperor roared.

“Because Your Majesty didn’t have an Empress before. Now, the Empress wants to accompany His Majesty to go to the hot springs in autumn, I ”

The emperor wasn’t very happy today.

The unhappy emperor went to the empress in a rage.

“How long are you going to read that lousy book? Why hasn’t anyone accompanied zhen for flying kites lately?!”

This time, the empress didn’t flip the book, he put it down.

However,

“How long will your Magesty’s anger last? Didn’t we only perform this intimate scene once? You won’t allow me to participate, and now I can’t even witness it?”

The emperor roared: “Zhen wants to abolish the empress!”

The emperor wasn’t very happy today.

The emperor discovered that he could not go as far as to abolish the empress.

The empress was the legitimate second son of the Duke of the State, whose family had been loyal and commandable for generations. He had led troops to kill the barbarians at the age of fourteen, achieving remarkable military accomplishments and receiving the late Emperor’s recognition as the General of Wei Yuan. His salary had been higher than that of the Emperor himself, not to mention that his brother held the title of Marshal commanding four hundred thousand troops.

In summary, the empress was powerful, and the royal in-laws were strong.

The emperor turned his head and began to ponder why he had established the empress.

The emperor wasn’t very happy today.

The Emperor recalled how he had become the Emperor.

He was the only surviving heir of the late emperor, born as the Crown Prince, and had enjoyed a life of privilege since childhood, if he wanted wind, he would get wind; if he wanted rain, he would get rain..

When he was fifteen, the army of the country was defeated by barbarians, and upon their triumphant return to the capital, the late emperor patted his shoulder and handed him a jade pendant: "In the blink of an eye, you’ve reached the age to start a family. This jade pendant is a token from when your parents were engaged, and now it’s in your hands. Go find a suitable Crown Princess for yourself, haha."

At that age, young boys were curious and infatuated with beauty. The Crown Prince took the pendant and set out to find his destined one. The late emperor called the Prime Minister over: "Keep an eye on the Crown Prince from a distance. Let’s see who he chooses."

As the Crown Prince walked, he absentmindedly turned around and saw someone standing among the peach blossom trees in the garden.

Fluttering red clothes, graceful and charming. The Crown Prince was captivated.

Meanwhile, the Prime Minister reported to the late emperor: “He has found a beauty. It seems to be the daughter of the Duke of State?”

The late emperor replied, "Good! Wait a moment, isn’t the Duke of State known for only having sons?”

The Prime Minister responded, “???!”

Unfortunately, the Prime Minister was nearsighted.

The emperor wasn’t very happy today.

He angrily went to find the Empress.

“When we first met, you were clearly so gentle!” The Emperor pointed angrily, “But you’ve become so fierce!” The Empress slowly raised his head and smiled leisurely.

However, the Emperor immediately felt a shiver, his calves twitching. and turned away.

That smile of the Empress seemed warm and did indeed make him appear gentle. But the Emperor knew that this was a signal—‘Just wait and see, you’ll regret it tonight.’

 

[ 7 ]

The emperor wasn’t very happy today.

After all, he was the empress he chose himself; he couldn’t abandon him, even if he was on his knees.

—The emperor bitterly knelt on top of a soft and thick cushion, glancing around at memorials.

He sniffled and felt very sad.
What the heck, why does it still hurt? ?
The emperor ripped the next memorial apart while gasping with anger and then stared at it as if he were in an intense battle.
??? The empress's bamboo horse (NT : childhood friend, with reference to the toy) had achieved remarkable accomplishments this year and returned to the capital to report ???
The emperor felt a little agitated, no longer feeling pain in his waist. He jumped around crazily—
And then his waist hurt even more.

 

[ 8 ]

The emperor wasn’t very happy today.

The emperor found out that the queen’s childhood friend was very! handsome!

Yesterday, the palace prepared new clothes for autumn season, measuring the heights. nearly six feet tall, while the emperor was five feet tall.

The empress was like a jade tree (NT : métaphore for exceptionally beautiful and elegant) standing gracefully, while the emperor was just a well-developed bean sprout beside the jade tree.

But today, when that childhood friend came, discovered that this guy was at least five feet seven inches tall!!!

And he looked particularly handsome!

And the provincial Governor’s memorial said that this good person was known as the "Jade-faced " Governor during his tenure! keeping him as a court official in the capital?!?!

In the Ministry of Revenue?!

What does this mean him managing the money here, close to the empress ?!

The emperor was so angry that he ate two extra bowls of dinner.

 

[ 9 ]

The emperor wasn’t very happy today.

The main reason was that the emperor ate too much.

The stuffed emperor sprawled out on the bed, letting the empress rub his belly.

The empress’ hand were very delicate, with slightly rough calluses in the palms, making the emperor grunt and complain.

“Enough of that,” the empress said, looking down. “If you keep this up, you’ll end up getting even bigger.”

The emperor immediately pulled the blanket over himself, wearing a wary expression.

...What to do? It’s still quite uncomfortable.

The emperor kept complaining about feeling stuffed.

The empress sighed, turned the emperor over, and playfully smacked his buttocks: “If you keep eating like this, I won’t feed you!”

[ 10 ]

The emperor wasn’t very happy today.

This was because even though the Empress did not perform XXOO last night, the emperor still had to kneel down to look over memorials today.

What the heck, Do you know how strong those hands are?!

And you dare to hit me! This is domestic violence!

The emperor stubbornly declined the empress's offer to apply liniment to him, wincing as he felt the swelling on his backside.

Tomorrow, the empress dowager would return to the palace to pay her respects to Buddha. He intended to keep this as evidence for a complaint against the empress!
