After leaving the study, Qiucao did not return to Ganlu Hall immediately. Instead, he found an open space nearby and sat down in a daze.
There is a lush green scenery in front of you, and the footsteps of palace people coming and going can be heard from the corridor behind you.
In the palace, it is still the same as before. The emperor leads well, the ministers perform their duties, and the palace people fulfill their duties. Everything is so orderly, and nothing has changed. Each of them has his own thing to do, his own

Where is she?"

The footsteps of the palace people got farther and farther away, and the voices of discussion gradually became smaller and smaller until they were no longer audible.
The autumn grass was frozen there, motionless.
It turns out that he is not busy with state affairs these days, but is traveling around with Concubine Lin...
