Xiao Naituanzi held Li Yu's hand and felt that his hand was a little cold. She was not afraid of cold hands, but the most afraid thing was that her heart was also cold.
Ruan Mianmian felt that she was a little cruel, but she had to remind Li Yu that although he was the prince, if he was not careful in the palace, he might fall from the clouds into the mud.
"Mianmian, I understand. Taking care of yourself is the most important thing. There is no need to worry about me. Be careful on the road." Li Yu didn't want Ruan Mianmian to worry too much, so he suppressed his emotions and smiled at her.
Watching Ruan Mianmian board the Marquis of Ding'an's carriage and drive away, Li Yu slowly turned around.
Looking at the high palace wall, Li Yu seemed to see a huge cage. Thinking that he would be trapped in it for the rest of his life, he couldn't help but have mixed feelings in his heart.
Besides, Ruan Geng did not see the emperor when he came to the imperial study. Only Eunuch Kang was waiting for his arrival.
"My servant pays my respects to the old Marquis."
"Eunuch Kang, there is no need to be so polite." Ruan Geng returned the gift with his hands raised.
"Just now someone from the Yishou Palace came to report that the Queen Mother was in ill health. The Emperor was anxious and went over to have a look. He specially left his servant waiting, saying that he would wait for you to come and ask you to come too."
"I see, thank you, father-in-law."
"Old Marquis, please."
Because of Ruan Mianmian's relationship, Ruan Geng and Kang Eunuch, who had not had much interaction in the past, are now a little closer to each other. The two of them chatted while walking towards the Yishou Palace.
Ruan Geng was slightly uneasy after hearing what Ruan Mianmian said before and planned to get the news from Eunuch Kang: "I just met Mianmian when I entered the palace. I wonder if this little baby has paid your respects to the emperor?"
"The Princess came to the Royal Study Room, and later went to the Yishou Palace." Eunuch Kang looked around, "Old Marquis, please relax, today's matter has nothing to do with the Princess."
Hearing what Eunuch Kang said, Ruan Geng finally felt relieved. Since it has nothing to do with Xiao Nai Dumpling, what does she mean by that?
"Eunuch Kang, can you tell me something?" Ruan Geng slowed down and lowered his voice.
"This slave only knows a little bit."
Even if Ruan Geng didn't ask, Eunuch Kang planned to reveal more or less. The emperor summoned the old marquis most likely to discuss how to solve the matter, and Eunuch Kang was happy to sell his favor.
Lowering his voice, Eunuch Kang spoke concisely and concisely, and Ruan Geng understood what he was talking about.
When they arrived at the Yishou Palace, they saw the Queen Mother and the Emperor sitting upright. After Ruan Geng came to offer a seat, only Aunt Fang and Eunuch Kang were left waiting.
After a long time, the emperor took Ruan Geng and left the Yishou Palace. It was said that the emperor and his ministers returned to the royal study to discuss state affairs. In this case, what they just discussed should be family matters.
When Ruan Mianmian returned to Ding'an Hou Mansion, she bathed and changed clothes and lay lazily on the bed with Jiu'er waiting on her.
"Princess, the third lady is here."
Hearing the noise, Ruan Mianmian sat up and saw Zhou Yunning had arrived in front of her bed.
"Mother." Ruan Mianmian was about to get out of bed but was held down by Zhou Yuning.
"Just sit on the bed." Zhou Yunning said as she looked at Ruan Mianmian. She took a long breath after seeing that the innocent face was still winking and pretending to be grimacing.
Ruan Mianmian asked: "Mother, what's going on?"
"Why did you enter the palace again?" After saying this, Zhou Yunning couldn't help but blame herself, "It's all my fault. I've been busy taking care of the embroidery workshop recently and neglected you."
"Mom, don't worry." Ruan Mianmian stretched out her little hand and put it on Zhou Yuning's shoulder.
Zhou Yuning looked at Ruan Mianmian worriedly: "Mom, I only want you to be safe and don't ask for much else. Do you know that the palace is not an ordinary place. Although you have a good relationship with Li Yu, his affairs are not
You can interfere, do you understand?"
"Mother, I understand." Ruan Mianmian retracted her little hand and lowered her eyes slightly.
Knowing that doesn't mean that he won't get involved. He doesn't want his mother to worry, and Ruan Mianmian doesn't want to say more.
Ruan Mianmian sighed secretly, she also wanted to be an innocent little girl playing house every day.
It's a pity that he can't. Whether it's for his little brother, his grandfather, or the Ding'an Hou Mansion, there are many things that Ruan Mianmian cannot stay out of.
Seeing the frustrated look on Xiao Naituanzi's face, Zhou Yuning felt that she had spoken a bit harshly.
"Mianmian, mother is really scared. If you have any bad intentions, I won't be able to explain to your father even if I die." Zhou Yunning hugged Ruan Mianmian.
"Don't be afraid." Ruan Mianmian patted Zhou Yunning's back gently with her backhand, "I'm fine, don't worry."
"Otherwise, mother will rest in your room tonight."
"Okay, I haven't been with my mother for a long time." Ruan Mianmian hugged Zhou Yunning.
With her mother by her side, Ruan Mianmian slept soundly that night, smiling sweetly in her sleep.
The next day, when it was bright and clear, Ruan Mianmian opened his eyes and found that Zhou Yuning was no longer around.
With a call, Jiu'er came over to help Ruan Mianmian get up and wash up.
During the meal, Ruan Mianmian sent someone to Fu'an Hall to find out if his grandfather was at home.
Just after the morning court, Ruan Geng returned to Fu'an Hall and went directly to the study. Not long after he sat down, he heard the voices of Adong and Ruan Mianmian talking outside.
"I came so quickly. I really care about His Royal Highness from the bottom of my heart." Ruan Geng murmured.
"Grandpa, can Mianmian come in?" Xiao Naituanzi pretended to be reserved and locked the door outside.
Ruan Geng smiled and said: "Since you are here, why not come in quickly."
"Yes." Ruan Mianmian walked into the study with eyes wandering.
"You have something to say." Ruan Geng knocked on the table.
Ruan Mianmian squeezed in front of Ruan Geng: "Grandpa, what did the emperor tell you yesterday?"
"This morning, the emperor issued a decree that the eldest princess Li Ling will be the marriage princess and will leave for the Turks next month to have a marriage marriage."
After hearing this, Ruan Mianmian's heart that had been hanging around was finally completely relieved.
Ruan Geng saw through Ruan Mianmian's little thoughts: "Now you are satisfied."
"I really can't hide anything from my grandfather." Ruan Mianmian replied with a smile.
"There's another thing. I guess it's you who is responsible." Ruan Geng looked at Ruan Mianmian.
Ruan Mianmian was confused: "Grandpa, please make it clearer."
"I suggested to the emperor before that the prince should go to Tiandao Academy. He did not agree and only said that he would consider it. This time he took the initiative to bring it up."
"Oh? What did the emperor say?" Ruan Mianmian's eyes widened with satisfaction flashing on his face.
Ruan Geng stretched out his hand and tapped Xiaotuanzi's forehead: "Even the Queen Mother agreed. Did you say something in front of her?"
"Haha, I didn't say anything, I just reminded you a little bit."
"Speak carefully, don't be half-hidden."
"Actually, I am telling the truth. My little brother is not happy in the palace. That place is not suitable for him to grow up. Even if the eldest princess is no longer in the palace, there is still the queen."
Ruan Geng glared at Ruan Mianmian and raised his voice: "Shut up. Just say this in front of your grandfather. Don't talk nonsense in front of others." This chapter has been completed!
