The Supporting Actress Made A Comeback

Chapter 1181 - 1183: Golden Thigh

"Hahaha, then I’ll grant your wish!" The Emperor laughed joyfully and said, "Grandpa Shen!"

"Yes!"

Grandpa Shen walked up with a beaming face and produced the Imperial Decree.

Mo Shu glanced at it, the corners of her lips curled up slightly, and she naturally approached the Emperor.

As expected, Grandpa Shen spread out the Imperial Decree, revealing a long list of rewards.

From General Song to Yu Siqiao, to various excellent generals, even the soldiers received bonuses and rewards.

The ones who received more had their salaries increased for a year, while those with less were rewarded with title deeds to land in their hometowns.

Grandpa Shen’s reward list took a full half an hour to read!

Yet the excitement among everyone present only increased; everyone was very happy, but in front of the Emperor, they dared not show it, each hiding their joy a bit.

Finally, when Grandpa Shen finished reading the list, the Emperor smiled and said to General Song and Yu Siqiao: "I have specially prepared a banquet for you, but thinking you must be weary from your journey, I will let you go and rest today. Tomorrow evening, we will gather again, and you can tell me how dangerous this war was."

General Song’s smile deepened, sincerely respectful and grateful, saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"

The Emperor waved his hand with a smile, saying, "Go now, Grandpa Shen, see our esteemed officials off!"

"Yes," Grandpa Shen laughed especially brightly, "General Song, Vice General Gao, distinguished generals and warriors, this way please!"

Grandpa Shen called everyone, except for Yu Siqiao.

Finally looking at Yu Siqiao, he said with a smile, "Prince Consort, Princess, this old servant will take my leave first."

Mo Shu nodded casually, "Go ahead."

Yu Siqiao also smiled and nodded, saying, "Much obliged."

Grandpa Shen quickly said, "Prince Consort, what are you saying? You have just returned from a long journey, and the Princess is also weary. I hope you take good care of her, lest the Emperor feel distressed!"

Then, he gave Yu Siqiao a meaningful smile, saying with a laugh, "This old servant will take my leave first."

Mo Shu always felt there was something odd about this old eunuch’s smile, her expression a bit peculiar.

Grandpa Shen gave her a flattering smile and quickly left.

Mo Shu glanced at Yu Siqiao, asking, "Why did he look at you like that?"

Yu Siqiao couldn’t quite understand for a moment, saying, "Maybe your father still has something to say to us, hinting that we should remain."

Mo Shu hummed lightly, "Isn’t that obvious? Don’t treat me like I’m an idiot."

Yu Siqiao chuckled, holding her soft palm, and whispered, "I don’t treat you like an idiot, only as my wife."

Mo Shu’s lips couldn’t help but curl into a smile.

Yu Siqiao also chuckled lightly, saying, "Let’s go."

The Emperor looked at this loving couple, feeling quite gratified and quickly invited them in.

The concubines were the generation of Mo Shu’s mother, but apart from those with strong family backgrounds who entered the palace with higher ranks, few of the other concubines held high positions, struggling to even see the Emperor occasionally, let alone frequently receiving his favor.

Thus, many concubines’ circumstances were difficult; although not entirely reliant on others, their lives in the harem were rather tight.
