“Some of them don’t conform to the rhyme and tone…” Empress Zhangsun’s expression revealed a hint of doubt. Liu Yong’s words didn’t match the current style of Tang poetry.

Li Er believed that his precious and exceptional daughter had been forced to marry Su Li, someone he considered entirely unworthy of Princess Changle. However, in the eyes of Empress Zhangsun, Su Li proved to be a suitable son-in-law by…

There was a hint of coldness on the face of the female officer, indicating her displeasure. What angered her was the fact that even though Princess Changle was now married to her son-in-law, then how could Zhangsun Chong still enter the princess’s mansion without any prior notification. Previously, Zhangsun Chong was Princess Changle’s cousin, and the current queen was Zhangsun Chong’s biological aunt. Additionally, Zhangsun Chong had a marriage contract with Princess Changle, which allowed him to…

Although, Su Li didn’t leave immediately but planned to have another conversation with Princess Changle. After all, she had just experienced a humiliating incident. “You should summon the minister!” The lady officer, who happened to be a minister in the Princess Mansion, stopped Su Li with a smile. It was worth mentioning that she held a prominent position within the mansion. “My son-in-law, please go and take a bath,” the lady officer urged. “Changle…” Su Li attempted to speak, but the…

Su Li had seen the female officer scrubbing Princess Changle’s body on numerous occasions. Additionally, there was always readily available hot water and fresh clothes for Princess Changle in the house. Despite this convenience, Su Li couldn’t shake off his unease.
