The sun sets in the west and the bright moon rises in the east.

After nightfall, the entire palace gradually became quiet.

About two quarters of an hour passed.

Empress Changsun walked forward, guided by her chamberlain.

"See Your Majesty."

Inside the palace.

Queen Changsun saluted respectfully.

"Queen, there is no need to be polite."

A smile appeared on Emperor Shang's face and he said, "Sit down."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Queen Changsun stood up, walked to the opposite side of the chess table and sat down.

"Queen."

Emperor Shang spoke calmly, "What do you think of the Li family's legitimate son?"

When Empress Changsun heard this, she frowned without leaving any trace, but quickly recovered as before, and replied, "Jiaoxi Li has unparalleled talent and humility. He is a rare talent in our great Shang Dynasty."

Queen Changsun's heart skipped a beat, and an ominous premonition arose.

"Queen, Murong is not young anymore."

Emperor Shang looked at his first wife who had been with him for more than twenty years and said bluntly, "Although the legitimate son of the Li family comes from a merchant family, this son has made great contributions to our great business and has been awarded the title of national scholar. He is also the head of Confucianism.
