Today, it is rare for the Emperor to move to the Royal Garden.
This is the first time I go out for ventilation after a long illness.
In the small pavilion in the Imperial Garden, the emperor sat on a recliner, half-squinted his eyes at the clear sky, and admired faintly: "It is better to be comfortable under the sky, look at the sun, smell the fragrance of flowers, and be in touch with this kind of life."
Popularity. Princess, are you right?"
"Brother Imperial, I don't have as much experience as you, so naturally I can't understand your sigh. You should know very well that Imperial Sister is just a twenty-year-old girl."
"Twenty-year-old girl... Since you think so, then so be it. I think you don't want more people to know about you. I have made everyone who knows your existence disappear. Your identity, you
Your experience can be written by yourself, and Brother Huang will not interfere. After all, Brother Huang has been the one who has lost money to you for so many years."
"Obligation? If the emperor really felt guilty, he wouldn't have let me monitor that person."
"This is a win-win opportunity. You want to leave the palace, and I need someone I can trust. I heard about what happened at the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and I know what you want to do. I have already issued an order in advance to go to the Prince's Mansion.
The person you want to see will arrive soon. However, you should be more cautious about the murderer. After all, there is no evidence and you cannot convict based on mere speculation and suspicion."
"The imperial sister will never embarrass the imperial brother."
Just as he was talking, a palace maid came to report: "Your Majesty, Princess Jiaqian is here."
"Invite her in."
Then, Jiaqian, who was dressed in a purple velvet jacket, walked to the outside of the pavilion and bowed and saluted: "Granddaughter, please see the emperor."
Jiaqian's voice is cute, soft and soft, and when paired with her elegant military uniform, she has a feminine air that makes people happy to see her.
"Jia Qian, we haven't seen each other for several years, but she has grown into a tall and graceful girl. The emperor can hardly recognize her." The moment he saw Jiaqian, the emperor smiled a smile he had not seen for a long time, and his old eyes were half-squinted.
, waving to Jiaqian, "Come here quickly, let Grandpa Huang have a good look."
Jiaqian smiled lightly, held up her hands, and walked to the pavilion in an orderly manner. She glanced at Li Xiaoxin and was very surprised. Maybe she was surprised that the other party dared to sit with the emperor.
The emperor got up from the recliner, half-sitting, holding Jiaqian's little hand and touching it, with a kind face.
Seeing this scene, Li Xiaoxin also let out a faint smile. Perhaps her last trace of respect for the emperor was here.
"Jiaqian, sit down."
Jiaqian looked at the seat next to her and shook her head: "Grandpa Huang, my granddaughter doesn't dare."
The emperor suddenly had a serious face: "Your father taught you these? How can you be so rigid? Grandpa Huang asked you to sit down, so you sit down. I think your father's grounding is not long enough."
"No! Grandpa Huang, my granddaughter can just sit down. Don't make it difficult for her father. In the past few months, my father has almost gone crazy in the house."
"Crazy? Everyone in the world is crazy, even your father is crazy."
Jiaqian shyly lowered her head and sat down. She also knew that her father did not have a good reputation in the capital, so she did not answer.
After sitting down, Jiaqian took a piece of preserved fruit, held it in her mouth and chewed it for a long time, and finally summoned the courage to ask: "Grandpa Huang, this girl is..."
The emperor did not answer, but looked at Li Xiaoxin.
The emperor said before that Li Xiaoxin's experience must be written by herself, and the emperor was also curious about how Li Xiaoxin would introduce herself.
Li Xiaoxin smiled: "My name is Li Xiaoxin, and I am from the same clan as my sister. However, my parents made mistakes, so it is not convenient to mention them. Thanks to the emperor's grace, there is no further investigation."
Jiaqian was still a little confused, but before she could ask a question, she was interrupted by the emperor: "Jiaqian, I asked you to come to the palace today. Firstly, I haven't seen you for a long time, and secondly, it's because of some rumors from the outside world recently."
When talking about gossip, Jiaqian's face immediately darkened. It seemed that she knew very well what the so-called gossip meant.
"Grandpa Huang, please tell your granddaughter the truth. Is that thing true?"
"What do you think?" the emperor asked with interest.
"Of course it's absolutely impossible!" Jiaqian stood up excitedly, "My granddaughter doesn't want to marry a man who wears a plain mask."
"What if you had seen it?"
"That's not possible. My granddaughter has no other hope. She only hopes to marry someone she truly likes. But now she doesn't have anyone she likes, so she doesn't want to marry yet."
The emperor laughed: "Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. I came today to tell you that the rumors outside are not true. I have indeed granted a marriage, but it is not for you Jiaqian, but for the people around you.
This is Li Xiaoxin."
"It's Sister Xiaoxin..." Jiaqian felt a little relaxed after hearing this, but at the same time a little confused.
The emperor continued: "Grandpa Huang knows Jiaqian's personality. If he hears such news, he will be bored and depressed. I am in no hurry to call you here to explain to you."
"Thank you, Grandpa Huang, for your concern...but..." Jiaqian had something to say.
"Okay, Grandpa Huang has said everything that needs to be said. Now there are still government affairs to deal with. The rest is just the two of you taking a look at the Imperial Garden."
After saying that, the emperor left the imperial garden without looking back.
Jiaqian felt that the emperor left in a hurry, but before she had time to think about it, Li Xiaoxin beside her smiled and held Jiaqian's hand.
"Sister Jiaqian, since the emperor allows us to stroll around the imperial garden, how about you and I go on a tour together?"
Seeing Li Xiaoxin being so enthusiastic and being sisters from the same clan, she naturally didn't reject her.
The two walked out of the small pavilion and walked along the edge of the small pond, watching the koi carp strolling in the water.
"Sister Jiaqian, it is a good thing that the emperor grants marriage, why are you so repulsive?"
"My sister has explained the reason, but why doesn't my sister reject it?"
"At first, I was a bit repelled. After all, I don't know what my future husband will look like or what his nature is. But after meeting him, I found that it was not as embarrassing as I imagined. I guess it was the emperor who granted me the marriage, so this is the only way it can be."
"Sister, judging from your expression, it seems that you are not as reluctant as you said. Could it be that that adult is just what you want?"
Li Xiaoxin looked shy and did not answer, but it aroused Jia Qian's curiosity.
"Sister looks like this, she must have been told something that is on her mind."
"Sometimes I think about it, the marriage granted by the emperor may not be a bad thing. This is the first time that my sister has met such a handsome and handsome husband."
"Sister, I'm afraid beauty is in the eye of the beholder..."
"No, it's true. If my sister doesn't believe it, come to my sister's house as a guest another day. After my sister shows you, Sister Jiaqian will naturally know."
"That's great! Since my sister and I are from the same clan, I should move around more in the future. I just don't know where my sister lives."
Li Xiaoxin smiled: "My sister may not believe it, but we are neighbors, and my sister lives opposite my sister." (To be continued)
