The King once promised her that when this day arrived, she would become the Queen and Ling could become the direct Prince. However, these days the King had not mentioned a thing about this.
The Empress Dowager once told her that the King had some affection for the Queenand was definitely not going to drop the Queen that quickly after being together for so many years. That was why she was taking the opportunity to start a fight with the Queen.
She did a great job today.
Since the King had made the confession, then what mattered above all was to get the position as the Queen.
Actually… after being married to the King for so many years… Honored Princess Jing had grown old and lost the strong desire of becoming the Queen, but… She could not. She still had her son! She had to get the best for her son. Only by being the Queen would her son be the real prince, so she was not going to give up on any occasion.
When the King heard the question he was still startled. He looked at the snowstorm outside the window blindly. The Queen was already gone, and her footprints were all covered by the snow too.
Well… Jiang Shuang should still be the Queen.
If the position of Queen was granted to Honored Princess Jing, what should Jiang Shuang do and where should she go?
Normally, only Honored Princesses got degraded, but not the Queen. If the Queen was not suitable for the position, she would either be executed or moving to the cold palace.
The cold palace?
Jiang Shuang looked strong, but she was actually a very timid person. She was not in good health now and might get worse if she moved to the cold palace.
So no… Jiang Shuang should not go.
Also, it was winter and the New Year was around the corner, he shouldn’t do something like that.
“No need to be worried. I am in charge of everything in the Saint Divine Land now, and I can control everything. You don’t have to be so anxious about anything. It is around the New Year and the air is celebratory. Also, we are marrying the Princess to the Prince of the North Qi Land, so it is not a good time to talk about the Queen. Just wait until winter passes, when the Spring Hunt arrives, we can pick up these topics too. Now you are the Honored Princess Jing and in charge of all the princesses, and Ling is already powerful enough to do whatever he wants. Don’t worry,” the King said, thinking that what he had been saying made sense.
Well… he could do whatever he wanted, but now was not the right time.
When Honored Princess Jing heard these words she looked quite unhappy. She would have believed the King if she had not seen how concerned the King was about Jiang Shuang, but she did see how he reacted so she believed that the King was lying.
However, there was nothing she could do, so she asked. “So, we will talk about this after the Spring Hunt right?”
The King nodded and said indifferently, “Yes, we will talk about this after the Spring Hunt. It is snowing outside, just go back to your place and take a break. I still have petitions to go through.”
When Honored Princess Jing heard these words she left.
When she was gone, the King calmed himself down and started to think.
Now he was already powerful enough to do anything for himself. As for Jiang Shuang… She could just stay in the Weiyang Palace. As long as she was doing well in her palace, the King could visit her for some time.

“Are you alright, Queen!” Susu hurried up to her..
