Han Xiao was very glad that the emperor was not like in TV dramas, who had to give a long speech before letting them get up.

Otherwise, my knees would really suffer.

Han Xiao was too lazy to listen to the polite words in official circles. The young master liked to eat the snacks in the palace, and Han Xiao was concentrating on picking fish bones for the young master.

Chu Jinglin was sitting next to them. Seeing how carefully Han Xiao took care of the young master, he nodded with satisfaction.

I have to say that no one would treat the young master better than Han Xiao.

"Han Xiao, give Chaochao to me." Chu Jinglin said in a low voice.

He hadn't seen Chaochao for a long time, and he would definitely not have the chance to hug Chaochao again after the palace banquet was over.

Han Xiao quickly handed Chaochao to Chu Jinglin. It would be great to have someone to help him breastfeed the baby. He was not at ease leaving Chaochao with someone else, but if it was Chu Jinglin, there would be no problem at all.

When it comes to trust, Han Xiao may be a little wary of the emperor, but Chu Jinglin is much better.

"Third brother, don't you need to talk to Hu Yansui later?" Han Xiao put the fish meat with the bones removed into the young master's bowl and talked to Chu Jinglin.

Chu Jinglin held Chao Chao in his arms and teased him. In response to Han Xiao's question, he simply said, "There's no need. Hu Yansui is not a good person. There's no need to befriend them."

Han Xiao silently gave a thumbs up after hearing this: "I also think that the Northern Di prince is not a good person at first glance, and the way he looks at Ruanruan is not right. Third brother, you should pay more attention."

I may not have the chance to deal with Hu Yansui now, but I can file a complaint. Sure enough, Chu Jinglin raised his head, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

"Did he harass Ruanruan?" Chu Jinglin firmly believed Han Xiao's words.

"Not yet, but I saw him once on the street before, and the way he looked at me made me feel a little uncomfortable."

The young master, who was enjoying his fish, heard Han Xiao and the others discussing him and immediately said, "Yes, brother, Hu Yansui is really bad. He just flirted with the palace maid."

Chu Jinglin nodded solemnly and said gently to the young master, "Okay, I understand. Ruanruan, you must stay close to Han Xiao recently, okay? Don't go out alone."

The young master nodded obediently. He never caused any trouble to his husband.

Han Xiao held the young master's hand and rubbed it for a few times: "Don't worry, Third Brother, I won't let Ruanruan out of my sight."

Let Chu Jinglin handle the rest. Chu Jinglin has been performing well in front of the emperor recently, and the emperor has made no secret of his desire to train Chu Jinglin.

This made the Second Prince hate Chu Jinglin so much that the Zhang family used a lot of tricks behind the scenes, but all of them were resolved by Chu Jinglin.

This time, because of the information Han Xiao gave him in advance, Chu Jinglin had already contacted the second prince of Beidi, Huyan Que.

To be precise, it was Huyan Que who took the initiative to find Chu Jinglin. Huyan Que was much more discerning than Huyan Sui. He had long seen that the second prince of Jiang was the whetstone given to Chu Jinglin by the emperor.

So he set out from Beidi one step ahead and found Chu Jinglin to cooperate before Hu Yansui.

Chu Jinglin did not tell Han Xiao about this matter. Only three people knew about it: the emperor, General Huo, and Chu Jinglin.

After knowing that Huyan Sui had bad intentions towards the young master, Chu Jinglin felt even more disgusted with Huyan Sui. He didn't even look kindly at the Northern Di delegation this time.

At the palace banquet, people drank and chatted, beauties sang and danced gracefully, some people's eyes were glued to the beauties and couldn't be torn away, and some people flattered them for the sake of their own future.

The fourth princess looked at someone not far away who was having a very happy conversation with Chu Jinglin with a hidden look in her eyes.

The Fifth Prince noticed the Fourth Princess's gaze, and with helplessness and heartache, he sat down next to her and said, "Fourth Sister, you haven't given up yet. What's so good about Han Xiao?"

The Fourth Princess just looked at him coldly, but the stubbornness in her eyes made the Fifth Prince shudder.

He understood his fourth sister very thoroughly and knew that she would never give up what she wanted, but this time it was really different.

Because of Han Xiao's background, they dared not act rashly on Mr. Qinghe's side.

What’s more, what about the young master?

The emperor would definitely not allow anyone to destroy the relationship between Han Xiao and the young master, not even his beloved daughter.

But the Fourth Princess was like a possessed person, determined to get Han Xiao, and even wanted to attack the young master. Every time, she was noticed and stopped by Concubine Li and the Fifth Prince.

If something really happened to the young master, the Li family would definitely be the first to bear the brunt.

The fifth prince looked at the fourth prince with a sad face, thinking of going back and asking his mother to persuade her.

If he were alive, he would find a reliable prince consort for the Fourth Princess. Maybe after the Fourth Princess gets married, her obsession with Han Xiao would disappear.

Just as the Fourth Princess was looking at Han Xiao, another pair of eyes was also looking at the Fourth Princess.

That was the eldest prince of Beidi, Hu Yansui. When he came, the emperor of Beidi told him that if he wanted to get the help of Jiang State, marrying their princess would be the best and most reliable way.

So Hu Yansui kept staring at the Fourth Princess when she came in.

Hu Yansui looked at the Fourth Princess boldly, with a hint of satisfaction on his face. Although she was not as good as the young man he had just met, she was still very good compared to other women.

The little old envoy also looked at the Fourth Princess with satisfaction. Judging from her appearance and temperament, he couldn't be more pleased with her marriage to the eldest prince Huyan Sui.

The old man signaled Hu Yansui with his eyes to go and get close to the Fourth Princess.

Although Hu Yansui was somewhat reluctant, he liked boys more than girls. He always felt that women were made of water and were not very effective in torturing them.

But he had to obey the old man's orders. He stood up, picked up the wine glass and walked to the Fourth Princess. "Hu Yansui greets the Fourth Princess. I have long heard that the Fourth Princess of Jiang is a goddess. Today's event is indeed well-deserved."

As he spoke, he looked specifically at the fourth princess's breasts and buttocks.

The Fourth Princess felt very uncomfortable with Hu Yansui's bold gaze. Before she could say anything, the Fifth Prince stood in front of the Fourth Princess and blocked Hu Yansui's malicious gaze for her.

"The Northern Di are indeed a barbaric land, so reckless."

The fifth prince really didn't give him any face at all. Hu Yansui's face changed and looked fierce.

The old man noticed that the atmosphere was not right, so he immediately pulled Hu Yansui over and said with a cautious smile, "I'm sorry, Fifth Prince, our eldest prince has no other intentions, he just wants to meet the Fourth Princess..."

"No need. My fourth sister doesn't want to know you. Please respect yourself, Your Highness." He then extended his hand to let Hu Yansui go back.

Hu Yansui and the old man both looked a little embarrassed. They noticed that everyone else at the banquet was looking at them.

The old man was worried that Hu Yansui would do something bad, so he quickly pulled him back.
