Bab 111: Chapter 111: Her husband's loyalty

Pei Qin's POV

Yang Hua noticed that I've been restless since this morning after I arrived home from the court meeting.

She made me a delicious lunch and now a snack in the afternoon. "I apologize if I look restless in your eyes, Hua'er," I whispered, sipping some tea.

She takes a seat and pours some on her cup as well. "Would it be bad if I asked what bothers you, milord?" she asks. I look at her and smile.

"Of course. The empress trusted you, and so I am. I know she won't get mad if I share my worries with you," I remarked.

I told her what happened during the court meeting. She looks worried as well.

"That's really a problem, milord. The enemies were trying to control the empress again," she pauses.

She put down her cup and looked at me in the eyes.
