Su Yining was hugged tightly by Suzaku beside him, and he whispered comforting words.
"Don't be afraid, Princess, no one here will prick you with a small needle!"
"Be good, Princess! I'll make braised ham for you later, okay? Grandma made it!"
"Hoof?" After hearing these two words, she gradually calmed down and sat on the chair very obediently.
If it weren't for the mess all over the place, I would have thought that all that was just an illusion.
"General Manager Gao, please don't mention those things again..." Suzaku was neither humble nor arrogant. He was not afraid of Gao Yan at all, and his aura was exuding.
He touched his nose and felt a little embarrassed. If this matter spread, Xue Hu's whip would definitely hit him. He couldn't help but think about what had just happened.
He already had the information he needed, so he naturally didn't want to provoke Su Yining.
Gao Yan pretended to read out the imperial edict, then left the palace without looking back, and went back to the emperor for his return.
…
Imperial Palace, Xuanhe Hall.
Gao Yan describes what happened in the palace without any personal touch.
"Oh? The guards of the palace are asking you for help?" Jun Wenbo looked incomprehensible, tapping his fingers on the table from time to time, with a determined smile on his lips.
"Yes, Your Majesty..."
"Gao Yan, you have gone overboard. This is someone else's family matter. Although I am the king of a country, I am not so domineering as to manage someone else's internal affairs!"
He looked upright, and he had nothing to do with the life or death of Mrs. Wang and others.
"Yes! Your Majesty, you are so benevolent and generous, and you govern clearly!" The stern horse followed, already understanding what it meant.
"By the way, does Princess Jiahe look like her mother?"
Jun Wenbo's sudden question made Gao Yan stunned for a moment, and then the corner of his mouth twitched as if he was remembering something.
To use his description, it sounds nicer: Weak Liu Fufeng.
To be honest, that is: skin and bones.
After thinking for a moment, Gao Yan finally described Su Yining's appearance, his clothes and his hair as dry as grass.
"Your Majesty, I really can't tell the difference between you and me. At present, I think it's not as good as one ten thousandth of what Miss Xue was like back then."
…
At the same time, Zhan Wangfu, Dongyuan.
There was a loud "bang" sound.
Su Yining was so angry that he threw the edict directly, and then stepped on it several times with his feet before venting his anger. He wished he could step on the edict as if he were an emperor.
"What kind of trick did this old immortal do?"
Several people in the room kept their heads down and kept silent, their chests rising and falling together, and they looked very angry.
The general meaning of the imperial edict is: The emperor agreed to separate the family, but he had to support Mrs. Wang, who had raised Han Yunshen, and the brothers would not share the property.
But! My brother-in-law is still young, so she should stay with her mother until she gets married and starts a business.
The eldest sister-in-law is like a mother. Please take care of your younger siblings and be filial to your widowed mother.
"My sister-in-law is like my mother? Like your mother!!!" Su Yining was really angry. This old fox...
Good guys and bad guys did it all, not letting their property fall apart, but also becoming an emperor who respected filial piety.
"Princess, please don't be angry! What should we do now?" Zhuque frowned, completely unable to understand the meaning of this imperial edict. How could there be such a separation of families?
This is obviously just not dividing the property, but with so many people in the palace, aren't they still being supported by the palace's money?
"Leng San, what did Gao Yan ask you today?" She thought of her previous arrangements and wondered if they had gained anything.
Leng San returned calmly. He said in a deep voice: "Princess, Gao Yan did not want to interfere with the internal affairs of the palace. Today, my subordinate asked him for help and was reprimanded."
Chen Zhong looked gloomy and thought of a possibility.
"Perhaps, the emperor does not want to ignore Mrs. Wang, but simply does not want the palace property to be divided."
"The house here was awarded by Emperor Gaozu. If there is no heir to the palace... everything will be returned to the treasury..." The expression on his face after saying this can no longer be described as ugly.
Having said this, Su Yining also thought that the emperor was probably thinking about the palace's money.
"Wang's people are waiting to see if the emperor will issue an order tomorrow. If they don't care within three days, then... haha!"
She and Han Yunshen were the only ones left in the room. Now she understood deeply that the man on the bed could not die. He had to live, at least he had to die after she left.
But she was a little reluctant to let go of such a good-looking man.
Is it worth exposing the secrets of space for an unknown man?
Su Yining, who has been wandering on the edge of life and death all year round, fell into deep thought. He now has no firm footing. There are vicious sisters in front of him and an emperor who cares about his family background.
As the saying goes, there is a wolf before and a tiger behind.
"How did you manage to get yourself into such a miserable state? Hey!"
She stretched out her little hand and pinched a red mark on Han Yunshen's face before letting go.
She was only away for a day, but so many things happened that she almost didn't dare to let him leave her sight.
From this day on, no one can enter the main house.
Whether it was eating, drinking, or having sex, she did it all by herself. Even when she went out, she would keep people by her side. Prince Zhan's Mansion once again became the focus of the capital.
A few days later.
Xue Guogong pulled ten carriages to the gate of Prince Zhan's Mansion, without any disguise, and came openly.
"Xiao Ning! Xiao Ning!" The voice came first before anyone arrived.
After the two families had dinner, they obviously felt that Duke Xue's complexion had improved, and his speech was strong and powerful. It could almost be described as being full of energy.
"Grandpa? Why are you here?" Especially when he saw the many servants behind him, each holding various strange things in their hands.
"Hey, I'm not that old woman. I insist on giving you some clothes or something..."
It was the first time Xue Hu gave something to someone, and his face turned red and he was a little embarrassed.
It didn’t take long for Dongyuan to be filled with boxes and cages.
Su Yining casually opened a box and found that there were neatly arranged clothes inside. However, the clothes were a bit strange. They looked like they were old, but they were well maintained.
"This is the little dress your grandma sewed for you. She has been making it since you were born, but...hey!"
His rough hands caressed the small piece of clothing, as if he was remembering the past.
Maybe he was thinking of his short-lived daughter?
"Xiao Ning, I know you still have doubts in your heart, but we can't speak out before the time comes for fear of affecting you."
"I understand, I will wait until the day you speak."
Su Yining did not see this plot in the original work. She had a hunch that this matter was inseparable from the royal family, otherwise there would be few people who could make the Duke feel embarrassed.
"Come, let's take a look at the others..."
"This is a longevity lock. A famous craftsman was asked to make it for you when you were born."
"This is a small windmill, this is a small wooden horse, this..."
