"Never mind."

Zhao Rui answered softly, pouring a cup of hot tea for Li Chen at the same time.

"Your Highness, please have some tea to sober up."

When Li Chen started drinking tea, Zhao Rui then said: "General Su is in a high position of power and is currently a powerful minister relied upon by the East Palace. It is appropriate for His Highness to have some dealings with him."

Li Chen, after drinking half a bowl of tea and feeling a little more comfortable, replied: "Court politics are complex, bringing out the best in human scheming and backstabbing."

"Politics is about more than just people's hearts, it's far more complex."

"Who to court, who to suppress, who to support, and who to distance oneself from - these are things that have to be considered every day, every hour, every minute. And they are constantly changing, needing to be adjusted according to the situation. In short, it's tiring, both physically and mentally."

This was Li Chen's first time confiding in Zhao Rui. Zhao Rui listened carefully, even though she didn't fully understand what he was saying. Nevertheless, she was overjoyed.

She thought that when Li Chen was willing to talk to her about these things, it proved that Li Chen really considered himself close to her.

"Your Highness, state affairs may be heavy, but you must still take care of your health," Zhao Rui said softly.

"This concubine doesn't understand politics, nor does she understand human hearts. This concubine only knows that she prays to the gods and Buddha hoping that Your Highness will be healthy and safe."

Li Chen looked at Zhao Rui and smiled faintly, "You're thoughtful."

Zhao Rui slightly bit her lip and lowered her head, saying: "These are all things a concubine should do."

"What day is it tomorrow, you know" Li Chen suddenly said.

Zhao Rui's face stiffened, and she lowered her head and said, "I know, it's the day the prince and the crown princess get married."

"After she arrives, you should communicate with her more. She's not a bad person and probably won't intentionally make things difficult for you."

Li Chen said in a mild tone, "The affairs within and outside the East Palace have always been under your control, and this won't change in the future. You should bear more burdens."

Zhao Rui was taken aback and hurriedly shook her head, saying, "Your Highness, after the Crown Princess arrives, all matters within the East Palace, both internal and external, should be presided over by the Crown Princess."

Waving his hand, Li Chen said, "Even the Empress doesn't necessarily have to manage the six palaces, let alone the East Palace It depends on the person's temperament. Jinpa's temperament is aloof and cold. Having her learn to manage people and handle internal affairs wouldn't be to her liking, nor would it be her strength. So this palace has thought about it, the affairs inside and outside the East Palace are still best managed by you."

Zhao Rui blinked her eyes and asked in a low voice, "But this way, the Crown Princess might be unhappy."

"No."

Li Chen smiled and said, "This palace understands her. She is no ordinary woman. When she finds out about this, she will only feel relieved."

"With that, Li Chen got up and said, "Tomorrow is the wedding day, this palace has to get up early. You should attend to this palace's rest."

Zhao Rui responded with a sound, got up and helped Li Chen remove his clothes.

Looking at Zhao Rui who was carefully undoing her own buttons with her head down, Li Chen said: "You won't disappoint this palace, and this palace won't let you down. Trust this palace."

Holding Li Chen's shirt button with a trembling hand, Zhao Rui said, "This concubine understands."

"This concubine does not dare to ask for much, only hoping to have a place in Your Highness's heart. If this wish comes true, I will die without regret."

Li Chen chuckled softly, scooped Zhao Rui into his arms, and walked towards the bed.

"My Lord, what are you doing!" Zhao Rui exclaimed.

"Didn't you say these days are suitable for conceiving This palace will make an effort." Li Chen laughed heartily. That's what truly defined her before anything else.On the contrary, as Zhao Qinglan turned around, she couldn't break free from Li Chen's grasp.His large hands were all over her, clutching at the ten...
