Chapter 627: Her Majesty

The emperor had already carried the empress to the bed, but he noticed her resistance.

"Yu'er, what's wrong?"

"Don't tell me you resent me for having such a busy schedule?"

The Empress felt compelled to explain, "How could I dare to resent you? You've just ascended the throne, and there are countless responsibilities demanding your attention every day. I find myself unavoidably neglected."

These words emanated from the empress, leaving the emperor uneasy. He perceived her tone as a subtle mockery.

What did it mean to be busy every day?

True, he indulged in the company of a few beauties in the harem daily!

The other concubines might not be aware, but he diligently attended court early every day. It was mostly a facade; the Public House made all the decisions, and he often found himself bored to the point of wanting to doze off.

Yet, it was implausible for the empress not to know!
