Chapter 156 Harmony, Harmony
Emperor Yong'an did not answer immediately. He took a sip of tea slowly and said after a while: "The place in Concubine De's palace is small. I have just asked the princess and the princess to move to the concubine's place to recuperate. If you are free, you can do more for me." Go see their mother and daughter."
Without answering, Emperor Yong'an's meaning was already clear.
Xiao Chenyan lowered his head, and in the sight hidden from the prying eyes of others, dark clouds suddenly gathered in his eyes, filled with deep anger and unwillingness, even a bit of ridicule.
For a long time, his mother and concubine were not favored, and he was not favored by his father. He rarely asked for help from his father. This time he did, but his mother and concubine would still be grounded.
Sure enough, only when one gains power can he protect the people he wants to protect, otherwise, everything is empty talk!
He suppressed the anger rising in his heart, his handsome face calm and humble.
"I understand that if nothing happens, I will leave first."
Emperor Yong'an acquiesced.
After Xiao Chenyan left, Emperor Yong'an said to Cao Dehai: "That kid Jianing... What a pity."
Cao Dehai said: "The princess is indeed filial."
Emperor Yong'an rubbed his brows and sighed: "It's good to be filial, but if this happens, her body will be incomplete. I'm afraid the Duke's Palace won't want her."
Cao Dehai looked at Emperor Yong'an's face and asked cautiously: "Does the emperor have other plans for the princess's marriage?"
"What else are you planning?" Emperor Yong'an said solemnly with a sullen face, "When she recovers, she can find someone to marry."
A trace of regret flashed across Cao De's face, and he bowed in response.
After Xiao Chenyan came out of the imperial study, Qing Juan's face was cold and his eyes were as sharp as a knife, as if he was suppressing something.
But he didn't show it at all. He first sent someone to notify Mu Wanrong to go into the palace to accompany his mother and concubine, and then went to the imperial concubine's palace.
At this time, Shen Ruzhou was already sitting at the dining table eating. The princess and the princess were not awake yet, so she just glanced at them without doing anything.
If the imperial concubine wants to let her stay, she will naturally not wander around blindly. She will look at the food on the table with satisfaction.
In her previous life, after she became the queen, although Xiao Chenyan was perverted and imprisoned her in the palace, he did not deprive her of food. It was just that she was seriously ill and could not eat anything. She also wanted to die and would eat when she saw food. Absolutely disgusting.
Now that she is reborn, her family is still there. She is mentally stable, healthy, everything she eats tastes good, and she always has a smile on her face.
When Xiao Chenyan arrived, he saw her sitting at the table alone, quietly enjoying the food. She was wearing a red dress, which made her complexion rosy and bright. Her small mouth was always slightly curved, very peaceful and beautiful.
He stood not far away, looking at her quietly, a trace of confusion flashing in his dark eyes.
Having known Shen Ruzhou for so long, it was the first time that he looked at her so quietly and seriously. It was also the first time that he discovered that she was so beautiful. She was not as temperamental as in the impression. She was not rude and ate carefully. Chew slowly and with utmost grace.
At this time, a suspicious voice sounded.
"Your Majesty, why don't you go in?"
Xiao Chenyan suddenly came back to his senses, looked to the side and saw Nanny Li leading the palace people walking towards him. A trace of discomfort flashed across his handsome face, but he quickly returned to his original state.
"The king has just arrived."
Shen Ruzhou, who was happily cooking, heard the commotion and looked outside. He saw Xiao Chenyan, who was wearing a blue robe, walking over with a cold face. The smile on his lips suddenly disappeared, and most of his appetite disappeared.
Xiao Chenyan sat down opposite Shen Ruzhou, and Shen Ruzhou said in an unhappy tone: "What are you doing here?"
She was quite happy eating alone, but seeing her lingering ex-husband-to-be was really annoying.
Xiao Chenyan glanced at her and saw the displeasure on her face. His handsome face also darkened, a little unhappy, "Have a meal."
"The prince came to visit the princess, so the concubine left the prince to eat." Aunt Li added a few more dishes. "The concubine specially asked someone to add a few more dishes, so that the prince and princess can eat more."
Shen Ruzhou said oh and thanked Aunt Li.
Grandma Li's eyes flickered on their faces, her eyes darkened, she curled her lips and withdrew with a smile.
Only Shen Ruzhou and Xiao Chenyan were left in the room.
Shen Ruzhou tried his best to pretend that Xiao Chenyan didn't exist, picked up his chopsticks and ate by himself, and left as soon as he finished eating.
Xiao Chenyan took two casual bites, then put down the chopsticks in his hand, looked at Shen Ruzhou and said, "What happened today was the fault of my mother and concubine. I apologize to you on her behalf."
He didn't come here to see his eldest sister, the most important thing was to see her.
Shen Ruzhou glanced at him in surprise, not expecting that he would apologize to her, and felt strange for no reason.
However, she felt that Xiao Chenyan must have something to say waiting for her, so she did not answer and continued to eat.
Xiao Chenyan looked at her, his voice was rare and soft, and even a little relieved.
"You saved the eldest princess, thank you for your hard work. I know that you care so much about the princess because of me, and I see it in my eyes."
Shen Ruzhou suddenly choked and coughed violently. He took a sip of tea to calm down. Then he looked at him and said word by word: "You are thinking too much!"
At first, she rescued Xiao Jinxi because of the pressure from the emperor and because she was forced into the palace by him. Later, she found out that Xiao Jinxi's illness could be used to make a fuss, so she took the initiative to do it.
From the beginning to the end, she had only two goals, one was to obtain the emperor's promise of conferring peace, and the other was to cut off Xiao Chenyan's future power plan.
It was not for Xiao Chenyan from beginning to end, what kind of gold was he putting on his own face!
Xiao Chenyan saw her face turned gloomy but did not get angry.
If she had gone to such great lengths to save his imperial sister, he wouldn't have believed it if it wasn't for him. She just didn't want to admit her feelings. Maybe she was angry because of what happened before and deliberately made him look bad, but actually she still loved her in her heart. Looking at him.
He didn't argue with Shen Ruzhou and directly gave him the chance.
"Okay, you have lived outside for so long, it's time to calm down. After leaving the palace, go back and tidy up, and move back to the palace."
"So that's what you want to say?" Shen Ruzhou sneered and expressed his attitude: "Now that I have moved out, I will not go back."
Xiao Chen Yanying frowned and stared at Shen Ruzhou.
"I have been tolerant enough to you. Go and ask, how many men can tolerate their wives moving out? You have been making trouble for so long. Isn't it enough?"
"Even now, you still think I moved out here just to make fun of you?" Shen Ruzhou couldn't help but clicked his tongue, and he couldn't figure out how Xiao Chenyan could become so stupid.
In his previous life, he was the emperor. Apart from being emotionally clueless and too blind, he was a very intelligent and troubled person. How come he still couldn't figure out her motives now and always misunderstood her.
"Do you not want to live in the palace, or do you not want to live under the same roof as Wanrong?" Xiao Chenyan frowned, "Are you still having trouble with me because of Wanrong? I said you can do whatever you want. But no matter what, we can’t treat Wanrong badly.”
He pinched his brows and suppressed his temper and said: "Please understand my king's difficulties. Wanrong is my savior. How can I punish her?"
Shen Ruzhou looked disdainful and shook his head with a sneer.
What about the savior?She is also his savior, Xiao Chenyan.
Forget it, I'm too lazy to talk to him more to avoid trouble in my life.
"I don't care how you treat Mu Wanrong. It has nothing to do with you. All I want is to make peace with you!"
Be at peace!Be at peace!Is there nothing else to say besides this?
Xiao Chenyan looked at Shen Ruzhou, anger flashed across his dark eyes, "Do you really want to make peace with me and leave me so you can find another man?"
