Farming in the Mountains: Max Level Jiaojiao Is Three Years Old

509 Empress Shao

“Yes!” Shiye immediately accepted the order, and then, with the letter and the seedless watermelons, he rode to town. He then had someone else send them to the capital city.

The horses were fast, and they did not rest for a whole day. On the 24th of June, the letter and the watermelon finally arrived in the capital city and were sent to the palace.

Feng Palace.

Empress Shao was dressed in a phoenix robe and a phoenix coronet on her head as she leaned on the bed of beauties. She was only twenty-four years old and had a beautiful face with red lips and white teeth. Even the flowers in the imperial garden could not compare to her.

Everyone knew that Empress Shao was the number one beauty of Da Ling, and she was also the Empress. She was the most respected and envied woman in Da Ling.

However, at this moment, her eyes were a little empty. No one knew what she was thinking about, let alone what she was looking at.

“Empress! Empress!”

Suddenly, a senior eunuch led two junior eunuchs into the room.

The head eunuch’s face was full of joy as he held a letter in his hands. The two young eunuchs carried a rather large mahogany box and followed behind.

They all bowed to show their respect.

“What’s the matter? Why are you so happy?” Beside Empress Shao, a palace maid who was gently fanning her asked with a smile.

“Great general has sent a letter!”

The moment she heard that her brother had sent a letter, Empress Shao immediately sat up straight. She was filled with joy and anticipation as she asked, “Is there any news of the Crown Prince?”

The head eunuch couldn’t bear it, but he still replied honestly, “No.”

Empress Shao immediately lost her spirit and slowly leaned down again. Her entire demeanor was listless as she lay on the couch. Although she looked like a painting of a beauty, however, it was unknown what she was thinking.

She had a dazed look.

The eyes of all the nannies, palace maids, and eunuchs present turned red.

Ever since the Crown Prince had disappeared, their Empress had been like this.

“Is he injured?” Empress Shao immediately sat up and asked anxiously. “Is it serious? Why is he taking a break?”

“Your Highness, if I may.” the head eunuch sniffed and smiled again. “This is a letter from the general. He also submitted a letter to the Emperor. He heard that the general was injured and needed to recuperate, so he submitted a letter to the Emperor to ask for leave.”

“He really is injured?” Empress Shao immediately sat up and asked anxiously. “Is it serious? He’s never asked for a break, what does this mean?”

“Empress, don’t worry. It’s not very serious. He just needs to recuperate. Once he’s well, he’ll be fine soon enough.” The head eunuch hurriedly consoled the Empress.

However, Empress Shao did not believe him. She snatched the letter from the head eunuch’s hand and opened it to read.

It really was written by her brother.

In addition to reassuring her and saying that he was fine, he also advised her to reconcile with the Emperor.

He wanted her to use the name of the seedless watermelon to invite the Emperor to the Feng Palace to eat it, and then makeup with the Emperor.

The two eunuchs had already opened the red wooden box, and there were two large watermelons that were firmly placed inside.

After reading it, Empress Shao did not put down the letter. Instead, she just held the letter and fell into a daze. It was as if she couldn’t remember what problems she had with the Emperor, and that was why she was being persuaded like this.

The head palace maid’s face still couldn’t help but turn red. She sobbed and advised, “Empress, will you listen to my advice just this once? His Highness the Crown Prince has been missing for seven years, you can’t be in a deadlock with the Emperor forever. There’s no evidence to prove that it was done by Consort Yi and the Ji family, otherwise, the Emperor would definitely punish them.”

“I agree, Your Highness.” One of the nannies said with red eyes. “You’re the Empress. No matter what, Consort Yi is still a concubine. He can never replace you. You don’t want to see the Emperor, but you’re not willing to see the Emperor when he comes to see you. Isn’t this pushing the Emperor to go to other concubines? Now you don’t even care about the harem…”
