Being ridiculed by the dignified Madam Hou, Lin Jiayue's face suddenly turned blue and white, and she looked very pretty.

She opened her mouth to defend, but no words came out.

He was unreasonable and confronted Xu Xiangxiang in the street. If the news reached his future husband's family, there would be no chance of a marriage.

She asked the maid to put down the deposit, turned around and left.

Seeing her running away, Yunling rubbed her hands angrily.

It's a pity. I thought that Lin Jiayue would continue to yell and shout with His Majesty's backing like he did in Yuezhou City, but he retreated so easily, without any trace of his original arrogance.

Seeing that the annoying person was gone, Xu Xiangxiang took Yunling to visit the tidying up shop again.

"Buy whatever you like. I brought out a lot of banknotes today. Don't save it for me. If you don't choose, then I will just buy it myself and put it in the betrothal gift. If you don't like it, you won't be able to exchange it. Yes." She said.

Yunling had no choice but to follow her to visit several jewelry and clothing stores. Along the way, she came back with a lot of things.

Seeing that it was noon time, the group went to Baoyue Zhai in Ruidu.

This is also a famous restaurant in Ruidu, and there are already many patrons downstairs at this time.

After entering the private room, Xu Xiangxiang said with a smile: "Let's order more and eat first. Qiong'er will come over soon and let him eat the leftovers."

Yunling was a little surprised, "He has been checking files at the Ministry of War every day recently. I don't know if he has time to come out at noon."

Xu Xiangxiang said nonchalantly: "We agreed yesterday that he will go home during lunch time and will not go to the Ministry of War this afternoon. He will just go shopping with us."

Emperor Tai'an has also been very strange recently.

He only allowed Zhou Qiong to seize the throne, but did not give him any official position.

He was asked to lead the troops on a march, but he was not given a military rank.

After recalling Ruidu, he was asked to go to the Ministry of War to train with Duan Anmu, but he didn't say what he was doing.

Such behavior aroused suspicion among the people in the court, but they could not find out the true thoughts of Emperor Tai'an.

In addition, the two Liu brothers are now sitting on the bench, and cracks are beginning to appear within the Liu family's party, which was originally twisted together.

The epidemic has subsided, but people in the court are panicked.

After a while, Zhou Qiong arrived as promised.

The three of them hadn't sat together for a meal for a long time, and they were about to become a family, so they didn't intend to abide by the rule of not talking during eating or sleeping, so they started talking.

When mentioning the eldest prince who was still in Zhongzhou, Zhou Qiong said: "Your Majesty will issue an edict tomorrow to seal the seal.

However, Emperor Tai'an issued two more edicts one after another.

An imperial edict has been issued to confer the eldest prince Xiao Cong as Prince Ding, and he can return to Ruidu for the conferment ceremony.

The second step is to confer the title of Prince Xuan on the second prince.

Emperor Tai'an served a bowl of water very evenly, and not only granted him the title of king, but also gave him two houses in the same area, living next to each other.

Xu Xiangxiang laughed when he heard this, "Your aunt has already sent a message to your grandmother, saying that she would be invited to the palace to discuss the choice of daughter-in-law, and she would also like to meet Ling'er."

Zhou Qiong nodded, "It's only the next two days or so."

Yunling was very nervous when she heard this, "I have never been to the palace before, and I don't understand the rules."

When she was a child, she often watched those palace fighting TV series and knew a lot about the punishments in the palace. Thinking about it made her feel horrified.

Xu Xiangxiang added a piece of ribs to her, "It's okay, I'll go with you then, and you'll stand next to me and my mother. No one dares to say anything about you."

Zhou Qiong also said: "The queen is in confinement now. The palace is very peaceful. You can just act as usual. No one will pick on you."

My aunt is always cautious.

If she hadn't been able to temporarily manage the harem this time, she would not have invited her own people into the palace.

After all, in the past, my grandmother and mother were always angry because of Empress Liu.

Yunling nodded, "Then I understand."

Zhou Qiong then mentioned another thing.

"His Majesty came to talk to me this morning. He wanted to ask me what kind of girl King Qi likes. He wanted to take advantage of the time of choosing a concubine for his cousin to select Princess Qi and stay in Ruidu to watch King Qi. After getting married, let him go back to Qingzhou."

Yunling immediately looked complicated, "It turns out that King Qi has not returned to Qingzhou yet."

"Well, I originally wanted to go back to Ruidu to take over the affairs of state temporarily, but my grandfather's acupuncture skills were really powerful, so he cured your majesty directly. When Uncle Qi saw this, he was going to return to Qingzhou immediately, but he didn't want your majesty to keep him here. He stopped and said bluntly that he would have to watch him get married before he could let him go."

As he spoke, his eyes were somewhat obscure.

He lowered his voice and whispered to Yun Ling: "Uncle King Qi asked me to find a way to help him escape this disaster."

Yunling asked: "He has made up his mind not to marry?"

Zhou Qiong nodded, "He said that a gentleman's words are hard to keep, and he must keep his promise to others."

Yunling immediately looked at Qi Wang Gao.

Nowadays, there are many gay men who cheat to get married. It is really rare for someone to stick to their promise regardless of worldly opinions.

Seeing that Yunling had no intention of answering, Zhou Qiong looked even more embarrassed and had no choice but to say: "Actually, Uncle Qi Wang has thought about it himself, that is, his grandfather must cooperate."

Yunling looked at him in surprise, "Did King Qi really say this?"

King Qi doesn't look like such an unintelligent person.

Zhou Qing nodded, "As I said, he didn't dare to find his grandfather himself, so he thought of asking me to be a lobbyist. To be honest, if our fourth uncle didn't have this problem, I would definitely have to help him, and I don't dare to do it now."

He is very honest.

Yunling wanted to roll her eyes, "Then you think I dare?"

Grandfather is still angry. Recently, whenever anyone mentions his fourth uncle, he immediately becomes sullen. Who dares to get into trouble?

According to her, her grandfather wished that King Qi would marry him early so as not to harm his most promising son of the Tang family.

Yunling immediately shook her head, "Forget it, let's not get involved in this matter and let King Qi handle it on his own. If that doesn't work, ask him to become a monk or practice Taoism. As for the rest... I think my grandfather's letter will be here soon." Qingzhou, third uncle and fourth uncle will come to Ruidu soon, let fourth uncle handle it by himself."

Zhou Qiong nodded quickly, "I will listen to you."

Xu Xiangxiang was immersed in eating just now. When he heard this, he raised his head and said, "That's how it should be. Your father also listened to me the most back then."

Zhou Qiong gave her a chicken wing and said, "Mom, eat more of your favorite food."

He picked up another one for Yunling and said, "You should also eat more."

This made Xia Ying and Yu Liu cover their mouths and snicker.

The Marquis is so funny that he started to think of asking for a bowl of water so early.

While eating, there was suddenly a burst of laughter and an angry roar from a man in the lobby.

"What are you talking nonsense about? I can do it, but don't ruin the reputation of this girl's family!"

"Oh, brother Yu An, aren't these brothers just complaining about you? You just don't appreciate us. Why are you still angry?"

"That's right, you're such a nerd, you really don't know what's interesting. Didn't you just break off the engagement by the eldest lady of the Tang family? There are so many good women in the world, why are you so angry with me?"
