The Emperor agreed!
He agreed!
Agreed!
The Empress and the concubines exchanged looks of shock as they stared incredulously at the Emperor.
One moment, he was talking about rewarding Qiu Rong to the Crown Prince, and with one word of opposition from Qiu Rong, he changed his mind!
Since when did the Emperor become so agreeable?
Did he attach importance to Qiu Qi, the Junior Minister of the Ministry of Justice, and thus showed special favor to his daughter?
The Empress, with a mind filled with doubts and surprise, subconsciously looked at Jiang Ning.
To her surprise, Jiang Ning was also looking at her.
In that moment, when their gazes met, everything became clear to the Empress.
The so-called importance to the Qiu family didn't exist at all. Qiu Qi came from a humble background, apart from being a former student of Jiang Ruobai, he had no other family heritage or background.
The reason why the Emperor agreed to Qiu Qi's request was simply because she was beautiful.
