The empress dowager took the talent list in an aggressive manner and went to Yin Tingyan’s Great Xia Palace.
“My son! Is Shangguan Ling not beautiful enough?”
“No.” Yin Tingyan had seen the list of beautiful women and many other women, but he had never seen a woman more beautiful than Shangguan Ling.
Previously, her beauty was so fierce that it was annoying and overbearing, but recently Yin Tingyan realized that she had changed a little.
She was still aggressive, but that kind of sharpness gradually calmed down and became the most beautiful and noble peony.
Just not in bed.
“My son, why is your face red?” The empress dowager asked with a smile.
But looking at her smiling face, Yin Tingyan subconsciously avoided her eyes.
Probably because the things in the bed had begun to be harmonious, Yin Tingyan’s thoughts would wander when he thought of Shangguan Ling.
“Mother, it’s a little hot, don’t you think?” Yin Tingyan straightened his expression.
“Oh…” with a long voice, the empress dowager looked at the four ice basins in the corner and threw the talent show booklet directly in front of Yin Tingyan. “The day is quite hot. I want to go to Jiangnan for the summer with your father. As for the talent show…you see for yourself!”
Yin Tingyan asked, “Mother, what are you doing?”
The empress dowager smiled slightly. “I think Shangguan Ling is quite good. She is more than good enough to be your empress. Don’t be ignorant of your good fortune. Be careful not to force her away. It will be too late for regrets…”
Yin Tingyan fell silent.
So, what happened when he did not know?
*
The empress dowager’s actions were extraordinary. She had given up in the morning. In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, she had embarked on a journey of sightseeing with the retired emperor.
Yin Tingyan had sent people to ask around, but they could not find any news.
Eunuchs and palace maids were sent to the side. It was only heard that the two of them had chatted for a while in the Phoenix Perch Palace.
When they came out, the empress dowager hated the late appearance of Shangguan Ling and adored her very much.
If one were to retrace the scenes in the Phoenix Perch Palace, one would be able to hear that the conversation between the Empress Dowager and Xia Ling was probably like this.
Xia Ling: “Empress Dowager, in my life, I am only willing to be a couple for the rest of my life. We are both born in this world. Whose heart can not accommodate only one person? Therefore, I do not wish for Yin Tingyan to choose a talent. I hope the empress dowager can help me.”
The empress dowager wiped away her tears. She held Xia Ling’s hand. “What you said is too good. When I was young, there were palace fights and house fights. My body was damaged by those concubines, and only Tingyan was left as a child. It’s such a beautiful dream to be just two people for the rest of your life. Don’t worry, I will do my best to help you!”
…
The system: “…” It was not convinced. How could such a brainless remark win the empress dowager’s favor?
Xia Ling glanced at it with sympathy. “Because this is a world of Mary Sue.”
In the plot, the so-called beauty announced that everyone was equal as soon as she entered the palace. She even relied on this equality to brainwash a large group of brainless fans in the palace to support her, thinking that she was tolerant and pure.
If this could work, then Xia Ling used the same brainless thinking to ask the empress dowager not to interfere in the talent show. There was no reason that it could not work.
*
The talent show was tossed and turned, and in the end, it was silently ruined.
Yin Tingyan was more depressed than angry, but for some reason, his face was gloomy, even though he was relieved in his heart.
He had not been with a woman for more than 20 years, and because of the prophecy that he was not allowed to get close to women, he had not even held a woman’s hand, except for Shangguan Ling.
There was a saying that love grows over time.
When two people were together more often, psychologically it seemed that they would naturally develop a good impression of each other.
