Chapter 829 Feelings

The King sat down directly as he came to the Empress Dowager. Normally, he would have asked the Empress Dowager if she had eaten or something like that, but because of what happened to the Queen, the King was holding a grudge towards the Empress Dowager. Therefore, he did not show any of his concern. He could not just give the Empress Dowager the full blame, but he could not simply pretend as if nothing had happened either.

The Empress Dowager must have guessed what the King was thinking, but she gave no reaction to the way the King behaved.

She said, “You have seen how the Queen is, and she is not in the right state to move back to the court. However, you are the King and you still have the whole world to take care of. You have seen her and taken care of her, and that is enough. There has never been any King in history who has ever done this much for a Queen, so you should get ready and move back to the court.”

The King shook his head. The original plan was that he would go back to court today, but Jiang Shuang was obviously not in the right mood to face him, and he had noticed that the moment he saw her. He could not return to the court right now whilst giving up the efforts he had made.

He had intended to stay in the town for a few more days, so that Jiang Shuang could get better after she thought the whole thing through.

“Mother, you can go back to the court with Honored Princess Jing. I intend to stay some more days here. Now that the princes and ambassadors are all back home, and peace is everywhere, I don’t have to be in charge of anything important. Lord Ling has done a lot of things these days, and he will be able to handle everything that happens. Just tell him to come to me, and I will tell him something so that he can supervise the country for some time,” the King said carefully.

The heir was not yet decided, so he should give it a deep thought.

Ling had always been his ideal candidate, so he would like him to have a try, so that he could know what Ling was like when it came to national affairs. In this way, he would have a clearer idea about the heir.

At this moment, both the Empress Dowager and Honored Princess Jing were startled.

Honored Princess Jing was so gleeful that she tried hard to press it down, fearing that her obvious delight would make the King displeased.

The Empress Dowager however, was silent.

She did not expect that the King would have come up with such an idea – to stay in the town personally and to make Lord Ling supervise the country.

Although that was what they had been planning all this time... the Empress Dowager had not had enough time to react before the whole plan was sped up. However, it seemed like a good thing, after all. It basically meant that the King adored Lord Ling above all. And wanted him to learn how to supervise the country properly so that the plan could go forward smoothly.

Moreover, Lord Ling had her and Honored Princess Jing behind his back, so he should have nothing to fear.

“Then Honored Princess Jing and I shall return to the court directly, and I will inform Lord Ling as soon as possible,” the Empress Dowager said with a serious look on her face.

The King looked up at his own mother.

He had a feeling...
