"No! I don't have any official business." The Emperor immediately interrupted her, as if she was going to go back on her word if he was a step later.
Consort Yun covered her face and smiled. She led a string of little black eggs into the house. The Emperor was still in a daze from her smile as he let Dabao lead him into the house.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!" In the Central Palace, the Empress was sitting in front of a large table of dazzling dishes, waiting for the Emperor to come and eat. Suddenly, an eunuch hurriedly walked in. "Your Majesty, His Majesty sent someone to tell you not to wait for him to eat."
A trace of disappointment flashed across the Empress's eyes. "Is there official business in the court again?"
The eunuch lowered his head and said, "No, there wasn't any official business."
The Empress was puzzled. "Then what's going on? His Majesty has something on his mind and doesn't want to eat anymore?"
