Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but feel envious of his mother and the Imperial Consort.
Then, he quickly suppressed his emotions.
It was all thanks to his hard work as a son and husband that his mother and wife could live so comfortably.
Since they had agreed to play mahjong, everyone was no longer interested in dinner.
After a while, the few of them put down their bowls and went to the small table to wait.
As soon as the Imperial Consort gave the order, the palace maid brought the mahjong tiles over.
The happy time soon began.
“Speaking of which, during this period of time, the two most discussed matters in the upper-class circles of the capital were about you.” While playing mahjong, thelmperial Consort suddenly spoke.
Everyone was puzzled and looked at the Imperial Consort.
“Mahjong and sausages!” The Imperial Consort immediately said.
Then, she looked at Prince Anyang.
“Ever since you sent this mahjong set to me and asked someone to teach me, I found some mahjong friends and often played mahjong with them.”

Prince Anyang was puzzled.
Seeing Consort Shu snickering at the side, he looked at his mother in a daze. “What?”
“They actually learned it and even found someone to make mahjong sets. It even spread outside the palace.”
“Now, the noble ladies in the capital all like to play mahjong very much. There aren’t many who can’t.”
“I heard…hehe…” The Imperial Consort suddenly laughed and covered her mouth.
“I heard that the ministers in the court also play it.”
“When your father was attending court, he met a minister. Because he was up playing mahjong the night before, the next day, he was too sleepy and almost fell.”
Prince Anyang was also amused.
“Haha, 1 have heard about this matter.”
“I heard that because of mahjong, it’s not just that minister who was affected. For this reason, father seemed to have warned the ministers to not spend too much time playing mahjong.”
” Pfft!” The Imperial Consort couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
“Your father still had the audacity to talk about others.” lie smiled when he saw his son looking at him in confusion.
“When he first learned how to play mahjong, he was not much better than those ministers.”
Prince Anyang was surprised.
The Imperial Consort looked at Consort Shu with a look that said, “if you don’t believe me, ask Aunt Yue.”
When Consort Shu saw the Imperial Consort mention Emperor Yan, the smile on her face instantly disappeared.
Awhile ago, the Emperor had indeed often come to the Imperial Consort’s place. He didn’t come to stay over, but to play mahjong.
That was not right. Playing mahjong was actually secondary. He was testing her.
She could feel that the Emperor wanted to repair their relationship.
It was just that he couldn’t bring himself to do it, so she used the Imperial Consort as a middleman and found such an opportunity.
Unfortunately, whether he was sincere or not, she could not go back with him.
Ever since the incident at the Great General’s Mansion, her feelings for the Emperor had ceased.
She was not willing to take any more risks and put her family in danger.
Therefore, she did not go to the Imperial Consort’s bedroom to play cards for a while.
She even rejected the Imperial Consort’s invitation.
It was only after the Imperial Consort took the initiative to visit and said that the Emperor had not gone to her palace that she resumed her interaction with her.
The Imperial Consort saw that Consort Shu’s expression was strange and hurriedly acted as if she had said something wrong.
“Aiyo, look at me, I said the wrong thing again! Let’s play!” She quickly said.
Then, she quickly changed the topic.
She had indeed said something wrong.
With Consort Shu’s situation, it would be strange if she could return with the Emperor.

Who among the concubines in the harem wouldn’t be envious?
Even she, an old woman who had followed the emperor since he became the crown prince, felt sour in her heart.
But in the end, the Emperor had also made a move against the Consort Shu that he loved so much.
He had exterminated Consort Shu’s mother clan, not even sparing his and Consort Shu’s son.
From that day onwards, she understood.
The emperor was just a heartless man…
Therefore, she let go of the last bit of hope in her heart.
Men were unreliable. Emperors were even more unreliable.
Only her son would always be on the same side as her.
Consort Shu was silent for a while. Then, under the occasional questioning of Prince and Princess Anyang, she quickly recovered.
The game finally got lively.
The next day.
After Lin Xiaoyue finished washing up and having breakfast, she went to the bamboo garden on time.
At this moment, in the bamboo garden, Mo Fei, Liang Chengcai, and the Sixth Princess had already arrived..
