Chapter 462 The Busy Night

*sneeze*

Long Qian Xing looked at the sky, wondering whether he had finally fallen sick. However, he had no time to dwell on his thought because his grandmother had already rushed over with a stick in her hand.

"Grandma…"

"You b*stard! What did you do in the palace just now, huh? Are you dissatisfied with the granddaughter in law that I pick for you? You #$%^&*(!"

In the end, Long Qian Xing had to endure his grandmother's wrath for an entire hour before he had the chance to explain his reasons. Even though his grandmother knew that he was someone who would have profound reason… bleh, some kind of important reason for his action.

However, she always felt that her grandson's emotional aspect was very lacking. It was very similar to her own son, who couldn't even understand what a woman would feel yet fell head over heels for her daughter in law.

Their rationality was so high that it caused them to evaluate the emotional matters with rational mind.

And there were times when it was actually not enough.

But she couldn't explain it well to these two blockheads!

She sighed.

"You better give explanation to Hua'er. I wouldn't want her to have some kind of misunderstand about what kind of person you are." Old Madam Long glared at her grandson. She really wondered just what crime did she commit in her past life to have such unreliable son and grandson.

Long Qian Xing nodded. "Yes, Grandma."

He knew very well that Nan Hua would not misunderstand, but in the eyes of others, he still had to explain his reasoning. It seemed that tomorrow would be a busy day for him.

'Maybe I'll have a chance to meet with her and explain it directly?'

Long Qian Xing doubted it, but he still hoped slightly that it was possible for him to see her and explained his action to her.

Palace

"Imperial Sister, don't you think that your action is inappropriate?" Empress Dowager Yan asked slowly as she walked into the inner palace with Empress Dowager Mei.

As the two of them were both high ranking Imperial Family members, there was a large procession coming with them. A lot of people were following them from a distance away, being careful so that they would not listen to things that they were not supposed to listen.

Empress Dowager Mei looked at her own hand and chuckled. "Why can't I do that? It's fun to see that boy's exasperated expression."

Long Qian Xing was always smiling and kept on the appearance of a gentleman. There was only once, one time when Empress Dowager Mei saw Long Qian Xing's expression changed. That was when her son's life was in danger and Long Qian Xing was protecting him.

She wanted to see him getting flustered once more.

That annoying young man who kept on protecting her son…. She wished for him to be gone and disappear. His existence was very annoying.

"Young Commander Long is the only son of General Long," Empress Dowager Yan said softly. "Being on his bad side is the same as being on General Long's bad side. Not to mention, his fiancée is Young Miss Nan, the beloved granddaughter of Great General Nan."

"Heh, so what?" Empress Dowager Mei turned around, sneering. "I'm already at this position. No one shall obstruct my path anymore."

Her pupil dilated slightly and Empress Dowager Yan shut her mouth. At this moment, Empress Dowager Yan could see a kind of madness and the mask that Empress Dowager Mei put on her face. She is also a woman, so she could partially understand what happened to her.

Being forced to a position she didn't want, holding onto the young child she loathed in order to survive, and eventually rose to this position where no one could look down on her anymore. All she wanted was to enjoy this life and do whatever she wanted. Things that she couldn't do before was no longer off access for her.

But this sort of indulgence wouldn't be able to last forever.

"It's already late, Imperial Sister." Empress Dowager Yan curtsied. "Aijia will go back and have some rest."

"Rest well, Imperial Sister."

As Empress Dowager Yan walked away, she didn't even bother to turn her head to the back anymore. She knew very well that no matter what she said or did, she would never be able to help Empress Dowager Mei.

And with the Emperor approaching his inauguration day, their time in power was also limited.

Before long, Empress Dowager Yan returned to her own room. A maidservant came to take off the decorations on her head as Empress Dowager Yan took a deep breath and relaxed her body. It was very tiring for her to move around in this weak body.

She looked at the bronze mirror, smiling bitterly. Managing the harem was not easy and with the Emperor kept on adding more women inside from other officials, Empress Dowager Yan really wished that an Empress was crowned soon so that she could rest.

"Your Highness." a maidservant came and kowtowed in front of her.

"What did you get?"

A bamboo stick was delivered and Empress Dowager Yan took it. Reading the content, the corner of her lips curled up to form a sneer.

"Give it to His Majesty."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Empress Dowager Yan stood up and let the maidservants did their work. She really wondered whether the Emperor would punish his pitiful mother when she had an affair with her former lover.

Well, it was not her business.

She was just his eyes and ears in the harem. All she should do was to do a good job and gave the report to him.

At the same time in Shangguan Family.

That night, the Shangguan Family was turned upside down. The outsiders who planted their spies there had lost their spies overnight as countless bodies were carried out the next morning. It caused sensation as everyone wondered what had happened.

All they knew was that Shangguan Family suddenly sent a lot of gifts to both Nan Family and Long Family. It was said that these were all their compensation towards the damage they did to the two families.
