Can't a girl be a traitor like Cao Cao?

Fortunately, the two eunuchs were strong and quickly grabbed Jiang Hao and pressed him back onto the bed.

Then one of them said with a gloomy expression, "Don't worry, Marquis of Drowning. We'll take care of you and make sure you're well-fed. You'll live a wonderful life from now on."

As he spoke, he crumpled up a filthy rag from the ground and stuffed it into Jiang Hao's mouth, preventing him from speaking.

Jiang Hao rolled his eyes, almost fainting from the stench.

Yang Yurou sighed and shook her head.

Thinking to myself, if I were to spend my whole life with someone like this, I'd rather be dead.

Tears streamed down her face as she hoped to awaken Jiang Hao's conscience. She then said, "If there is no other way, I can only die. Why do you hurt me like this, my husband?"

But Jiang Hao just stared at Yang Yuru with a sinister expression, his mouth stuffed with diapers, unable to speak.

Yang Yuru suddenly remembered her previous decision to refuse Yuan Zhaoji's suggestion and come here to take care of Jiang Hao.

Some regret is inevitable.

At that time, I only thought that in this way, I could preserve my reputation and Chi Junlin would let me go.

But after Chi Junlin actually let her leave the palace, Yang Yuru felt somewhat... depressed.

Is death the only option now?

However, just when Yang Yuru felt that there was no greater sorrow than a broken heart.

Suddenly, a sharp scream came from outside.

"Imperial edict has arrived!"

Yang Yuru was startled and quickly came out of the room accompanied by a palace maid.

But then Li Gou'er, dressed in the purple robes of an eunuch, strode arrogantly into the courtyard, surrounded by a group of eunuchs.

Upon seeing Yang Yuru, Li Gou'er immediately put on a smile and said ingratiatingly, "Your Majesty, an imperial decree has arrived from the palace. Please prepare to receive it."

Yang Yuru blushed upon hearing this and quickly shook her head, saying, "I am no longer Your Highness. Why do you address me like that, Father-in-law?"

"That's very kind of you," Li Gou'er immediately said with a shy expression, her fingers delicately curled. "Back in the palace, who didn't know that Your Highness was virtuous, kind, and gentle? We who are still alive are all grateful for Your Highness's kindness. It's only right that we call you Your Highness!"

After saying this, he put on a stern face and said to the people around him, "Where is Marquis Nidun? Why hasn't he come to receive the imperial decree yet? If he misses the appointed time to enter the palace, who will take responsibility?"

"Enter the palace?" Yang Yuru looked puzzled, not quite understanding what Li Gou'er meant.

Before Li Gou'er could explain, two other eunuchs immediately apologized. They then dragged Jiang Hao out of the house and forced him onto the muddy ground.

Yang Yuru was about to kneel down when Li Gou'er quickly stopped her, saying, "No, no, Your Majesty, please stand and listen to the decree. Don't make this servant suffer."

Then, before Yang Yuru could react, Li Gou'er announced the decree:

"There is an imperial edict:"

Since I ascended the throne, I have often been worried. I believe that there is no one in the inner palace who can be the mistress of the palace for even a day, and the concubines and consorts have no one to teach them. This is a sign of chaos in the inner palace and cannot be allowed to continue.

I am still young and have not yet married.

He then appointed the eldest princess as the head of the harem, in charge of the rewards and punishments of the concubines, which was said to be related to the affairs of the harem.

I have heard that the empress of the previous dynasty was virtuous and kind, and was known as a wise empress.

Empress Dowager Yang Yurou, the late Empress Dowager, is hereby summoned to the palace for an audience. She is granted the special authority to manage the inner palace and assist the eldest princess in governing.

Admire this. "

After announcing the imperial edict, Li Gou'er looked at Jiang Hao, who was lying in the mud, and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.

It's as if it's saying, "You dog emperor, you dog emperor, you never thought you'd end up like this!"

You deserve it!

Yang Yuru felt something was amiss when she heard that the eldest princess was to be the head of the harem.

She knew her relationship with Jiang Qianju; the two were definitely not that close.

It's impossible for the eldest princess to suggest that he assist her.

That means it must have been the Red Emperor who issued the edict summoning him to the palace.

Thinking of this, Yang Yuru felt a little happy.

For a moment, I felt a sense of relief.

"Your Majesty, please accept the decree," Li Gou'er said to Yang Yu with a gentle smile.

Yang Yuru quickly performed a curtsy and bowed, replying, "Your Majesty, I accept the imperial decree and thank you for your grace."

After receiving the decree, Yang Yurou was overjoyed.

But at the same time, she felt that her joy was unreasonable and even somewhat unchaste.

Subconsciously, Yang Yuru turned to look at Jiang Hao on the ground.

But his expression was sinister, and his jealousy was chilling.

Yang Yuru couldn't help but shake her head.

She finally understood that she was the only one who cared about the relationship between husband and wife.

Jiang Hao never actually considered her as his wife.

Since that's the case, then the relationship between the two as husband and wife probably ends here.

"Your Majesty, please hurry to the palace. If you miss the appointed time, the palace gates will be locked, and the General is still waiting for you."

Li Gou'er then hurriedly urged Yang Yurou.

He hummed in agreement and then stopped looking at Jiang Hao.

Instead, accompanied by Li Gou'er, he boarded the carriage to enter the palace.

A moment later, the carriage entered the palace.

Yang Yuru was thus able to return to the palace she was already familiar with.

Looking at the red walls and high tiles in front of her, Yang Yuru would occasionally have an idea.

The world is so vast, yet the imperial palace is so small.

Living in such a lifeless palace every day, wouldn't one's mind become narrow-minded?

Therefore, Yang Yuru often reminds herself to be broad-minded and tolerant.

However, she was a virtuous and kind empress, but her husband was not a wise ruler of the time.

They are even muddle-headed and incompetent, making them despicable.

Thinking of this, Yang Yuru sighed.

Suddenly, the carriage stopped.

Li Gou'er then said to Yang Yurou, "Your Majesty, we have arrived."

The General is waiting for you inside.

Chapter 50 Transgressing the established rules of etiquette, a heinous crime!

Yang Yuru thanked Li Gou'er and then got off the carriage.

However, Yang Yuru realized that she had not arrived at the inner palace.

It was near the Qianyang Hall, where the court officials held their court assemblies.

Yang Yuru was a little confused and wanted to ask Li Gou'er a question.

But Li Gou'er had already bowed and retreated.

A palace maid led the way, guiding Yang Yuru into a side hall.

Upon entering the side hall, he found that palace maids were already waiting to serve him.

"Your Majesty, please take a bath and change your clothes."

Yang Yuru sighed, her face slightly flushed.

Because she had already realized that Chi Junlin was definitely going to tease and bully her later.

But what can she do?

Yang Yurou has always been gentle and submissive, and is used to accepting whatever comes her way.

For now, the only option is to go with the flow.

Before long, Yang Yuru finished her bath with the help of several palace maids.

But when it came time to get dressed, Yang Yuru blushed.

"This...how can I wear this? This is a transgression of etiquette! I cannot..."

The palace maids covered their mouths and laughed, "This dress was prepared by the General for Your Highness. If Your Highness doesn't wear it, then you'll have nothing to wear."

With a helpless expression, Yang Yuru could only blush and put on the robe in front of her with the help of the palace maids.

Afterwards, several palace maids led Yang Yurou into the Qianyang Palace and then left the palace.

The main hall was now filled with candles, casting a warm yellow glow.

At this moment, only Yang Yuru was in the hall.

She looked at the empty palace, and before her stood the dragon throne, a symbol of supreme imperial power.

Yang Yuru couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

If others were to see his current appearance and spread the word, it wouldn't be a simple matter of dying.

Just then, Yang Yuru heard a soft call in her ear.

"Yu Rou, you've arrived."

Yang Yuru turned her head and saw that Chi Junlin had walked up to her side at some point and was very close to her cheek, almost kissing her.

She was startled and instinctively took a step back.

Chi Junlin reached out and grabbed her slender waist, pulling her half into his embrace.

Yang Yuru blushed deeply and couldn't help but complain to Chi Junlin in a low voice, "How could you make me wear... this outfit? This is a grave offense of disrespect..."

Chi Junlin replied with a smile, "They're tight-lipped, they won't tell anyone. You can rest assured."

As she spoke, she lowered her head to look at Yang Yurou's beautiful body.

At this moment, one can see that Yang Yuru is wearing a bright yellow fitted robe.

The embroidery on the robe was not of a phoenix.

There were actually nine five-clawed golden dragons.

If the civil officials outside the court were to see this scene, they would probably be in an uproar immediately.

Because what Yang Yuru was wearing was a gilded dragon robe that only the emperor was qualified to wear!

Yang Yuru was extremely shy at this moment.

No wonder she said that wearing this outfit was disrespectful.

And at this moment, Yang Yuru felt that the dragon robe fit her perfectly.

It was obvious that Chi Junlin had it modified in advance, prepared solely for her.

It's hard to say how long before Chi Junlin had this presumptuous and disrespectful idea.

Yang Yuru blushed, her eyes almost overflowing with tears.

She dared not meet Chi Junlin's eager gaze and couldn't help but ask, "How could you make me wear this...this dragon robe?"

Chi Junlin smiled and whispered softly in her ear, "When I first met you, outside the palace gates, you were wearing this very dress. I've remembered it ever since, and I'm determined to have you wear it again just for me."

Now it seems this dress fits you perfectly. Isn't it, my Queen?

Hearing Chi Junlin's whisper in her ear, Yang Yuru felt her body go limp.

It wasn't shame, but rather that she had never heard anyone say such strange words of love to her before...

"Commander-in-Chief, I am..."

Before Yang Yurou could finish speaking, she felt a lightness beneath her.

Chi Junlin had already lifted her up in his arms.
