Chapter 452 : Taking Responsibility (2)
Holding the highest power and authority over the entire Heavenly Realm came with its own set of advantages and disadvantages. For one, Xie Jianshen enjoyed digging out the festering wounds within the realm and administering punishments to those who deserved them. However, he loathed the bureaucracy that took the form of an endless load of petitions and letters he had to read through, one by one, every single day.
Luckily, he had Jiang Rufeng by his side. Although Jiang Rufeng too found the task tedious, he was more than happy to take this burden off his wife's hands.
The morning sun, dappled and gentle, filtered through the leaves overhead, casting a mosaic of light and shadow on Xie Jianshen's face as he lounged in the garden. A stack of pillows cradled his head, offering plush support, while his feet, in playful defiance of gravity, rested comfortably atop his husband's lap.
