Yao Xian naturally refused to leave. After a round of obstinate refusal, Emperor Yongan eventually ordered the guards to drag her away.
The following day, Emperor Yongan forced himself to preside over the early court session. As soon as it was over, and just as he intended to visit Da'an Palace, Yao Xian came again.
Yao Xian, contemplating the few comfortable days she had left, was determined to squeeze some benefits from Emperor Yongan.
In the end, the Emperor and Empress argued their way into Da'an Palace.
Yang Wenxiao sat on a stool, listened to Yao Xian's demands, then lifted his eyelids and said expressionlessly, "What's the hurry? You still have Haohao."
"Haohao has his crown princess; how could he possibly care for his maternal family?" Yao Xian cried and sobbed, wiping tears with a handkerchief. Her eyes were swollen like walnuts, an appearance she never would have shown in front of Emperor Yongan before.
But now, it no longer mattered.
It truly didn't matter anymore.
