Chapter 1542: Will the Princess Still Love Me When She Comes Back?
In the eyes of outsiders, the emperor was wise and serious, and the empress was strict and fair.
But when they were in the East Palace, they were like an ordinary couple.
There is no parent who does not love his or her child, especially since Shi Li is their only child and has been carrying countless expectations and love since birth.
If the situation had not forced them three years ago, they would never have sent their daughter away.
So in front of Shi Li, the people were not the noble emperor and empress, but pairs of parents who loved and yet felt guilty about their daughter.
At this time, as long as Shi Li could say it and it did not violate ethics and morals, even if she wanted the stars in the sky, the emperor and empress would pick them up and give them to her.
Even if the emperor and empress have other children in the future, their status will never exceed Shi Li.
A family of three sat together and chatted.
Mainly, Shi Li talked about his three years in Xifan, and the emperor and empress listened in silence.
Shi Li did not deliberately exaggerate her own hardships, nor did she whitewash the situation. She just calmly described what Xifan was like and how she lived there.
That's how it was. At one point, the empress burst into tears, and the emperor's eyes turned red, sighing again and again.
When the emperor heard Shi Li say that he could live a less difficult life thanks to the help of the Son of God, he even said, "How about I send someone to Xifan to make a golden body for him?"
Shi Li: ...
She guessed that the Emperor thought the Son of God was already in his seventies or eighties, so she deliberately did not explain, just smiled and did not continue the topic.
When he had almost finished speaking, the emperor waved his hand and said, "Starting tomorrow, Lili will attend the morning court with me, and it's time to get involved in government affairs!"
This is because he can't wait to let everyone know Shi Li's nobility.
Shi Li blinked, not knowing whether to agree or refuse.
The queen glared at the emperor, then held Shi Li's hand with pity, "Li Li just came back. She suffered so much before. She should be well taken care of after coming back. You are not in a hurry to abdicate."
In the whole world, only the queen dares to speak to the emperor like this, and the emperor will not get angry or refute.
When they first got married, they were just respectful to each other, but later on they developed a lot of friendship in the East Palace. Over the years, they have been through thick and thin together, and their relationship has become better and better.
Shi Li didn't say anything and just followed the Empress's instructions. She had just returned and couldn't rush into anything.
But the emperor and empress were both smart. In the end, the empress finally asked about Zeng, and her dissatisfaction with her was obvious on her face.
Shi Li was also not vague and told Zeng everything she had done along the way. Finally, she smiled and said, "She also said that she would introduce her nephew to me tomorrow and that we should spend more time together in the future."
The emperor's face turned blue and the queen almost broke her own armor.
It is outrageous that a mere wet nurse wanted to control their precious daughter and rise to the top by controlling the princess.
"At first I wanted her to accompany you to Xifan, but she suddenly fell seriously ill. Now it seems that it was all fake."
The queen sneered, "How dare you covet the princess? Don't you even consider whether you are worthy of her?"
Although Hua said this, if Shi Li couldn't wait to deal with her wet nurse as soon as she came back, she didn't know how the outside world would comment, so she had to endure it for a while.
"With someone like her, the Zeng family will certainly not be at peace. Once we find her, we'll find a way to resolve the issue." The emperor also calmed down and patted the queen's hand.
As parents, they were the most considerate to their daughter. They did not hold a welcoming banquet today. Instead, after chatting, the emperor and empress personally sent Shi Li back to the palace specially prepared for her.
The princess's palace was the most luxurious in the entire palace. Everything was arranged by the emperor and empress themselves, which made Zeng, who came here with Shi Li, stare in amazement.
"You should have a good rest first, and we'll talk about the future later."
The queen sent Shi Li back to her bedroom and patted her hand as she left. "Just be at ease. No one will ever surpass you."
Zeng was not far away, so she naturally heard these words, and the light flashing in her eyes became more eager.
