Chapter 704

While one was full, she was unbearably hungry.

Shangguan Xuanyi ordered someone to serve food.

"Has the Empress Dowager returned to the palace?"

"Hmm." Shangguan Xuanyi felt gloomy at the mention of the Empress Dowager and didn't want to discuss it further.

The Emperor even gave him seven days off, so he could spend quality time at home with his doting wife, and earnestly work on starting a family.

However, the Empress Dowager, having several grandsons at her disposal, insisted on selecting him, who was newly wed and on his honeymoon, to escort her to Guanyin Temple.

It was clearly done on purpose!

Seeing his troubled expression, Xiao'er comforted him, "It's okay. Our wedding caused such a huge commotion, so in the hearts of the commoners, I probably hold more importance than the Empress Dowager herself. She's just jealous and hasn't come out of it yet."
