An Jingxin felt very disappointed that she couldn't accompany her husband to the Imperial Garden, yet she did not let it show on her face; instead, she smiled and said, "Your Majesty has summoned you to discuss important matters, you should hurry over."
"We'll go together,"
Seeing Xiao Changyi wanting to take her along, An Jing was both moved and delighted, but still shook her head and said, "Even if I went with you, I would just be sitting on the side, bored. You should go by yourself."
What place was the Imperial Study Room? How could she, a woman, have the audacity to interject on matters of the state? She was very clear on this point.
Better to be at ease by herself than to be a wooden pole there.
Xiao Changyi just looked at her, not saying a word, nor did he head to the Imperial Study Room.
