In the Myriad Beasts Garden, on a piece of open ground, a large soft couch was placed, and the Emperor was half-lying there.
Admiring the beasts? It seems somewhat peculiar.
All along the way, the guards who originally followed should have gone back to report by now.
After all, this is the Imperial Palace, not outside, and they don't need to continue protecting anymore.
Yet they kept following, and nobody stopped them, as if everything was normal.
This made the Eldest Prince, who was somewhat nervous, breathe a sigh of relief.
It seems Father indeed trusts the Empress.
Indeed, the Eldest Prince replaced all of the Empress's guards with "his own" people.
Seeing the Empress, the Emperor even smiled: "Ning, you're back, was everything smooth?"
Li Shuning remained silent, her mouth pressed tightly.
