Seeing that he didn't respond, Emperor Mingqing frowned and said, "Duke Jiang was so angry about your behavior that he came to complain to me. You are not allowed to go to Duke Jiang's mansion before you marry Jiang Taohua!"

After saying this, he thought of his son's words about not being able to sleep without Jiang Taohua by his side, and added, "If you want to go, go quietly and don't let anyone from the Duke of Jiang's Mansion find you."

After all, Emperor Mingqing doted on his son and could not bear to see him suffer.

"Is your Majesty finished speaking? If you have, I will leave." Long Jingyan was worried about Jiang Taohua and didn't want to stay here and listen to his father's nagging.

Emperor Mingqing saw his son was anxious to leave, so he waved his hand and said unhappily, "Go, go, go quickly. Out of sight, out of mind."

What a heartless boy! He forgot his father now that he has a wife.

Long Jingyan obediently retreated.

Emperor Mingqing watched him retreat without hesitation and couldn't help muttering: This son was raised in vain.

After coming out of the imperial study, Long Jingyan went to the imperial garden to look for Jiang Taohua.

At this time, Jiang Taohua was strolling in the Imperial Garden, admiring the scenery.

The Imperial Garden is huge and magnificent. At first glance, you can see the intricately carved rockery and the beautiful exotic flowers and plants.

Eunuch Yuan followed behind her.

Jiang Taohua didn't like others following her, so she said, "Eunuch Yuan, go and do your thing. I want to go shopping by myself."

"Yes, Miss Jiang."

Eunuch Yuan responded respectfully and left obediently without worrying about her safety.

This is the imperial palace, there won't be any danger.

Jiang Taohua strolled in the imperial garden for a while, and when she was tired, she went to the waterside pavilion to rest.

When she arrived at the water pavilion, there was no one there. Jiang Taohua sat by the railing, watching the fish swimming happily in the lake.

Just as she was admiring the fish, footsteps were heard outside the pavilion, accompanied by a charming voice, "Madam Yu, go and drive that stranger out of the pavilion."

Hearing this, Jiang Taohua looked up and saw a girl in gorgeous clothes walking towards her with a proud look on her face.

Behind her followed a maid dressed as a palace maid. The maid had sharp cheekbones and eyes, and looked sarcastic and mean.

The original owner did not remember these two people, and Jiang Taohua did not know them.

When she looked at the girl, the girl was also looking at her.

Looking at her unparalleled beauty, the girl couldn't help but frown. Whose daughter is this? Why does she look so unfamiliar?

Jiang Taohua wanted to know the identity of the girl, so she called Pang Pang out and asked Pang Pang about the girl's identity.

Fatty said in his mind, "Huahua, this girl is the fifth princess, Long Yuzhu. The fifth princess is the daughter of Ming Qing Emperor's favorite concubine, Consort Yu Guifei. She is fourteen years old this year. Because she loves to act like a spoiled child and has a sweet mouth, she is very favored by Ming Qing Emperor. She has a very spoiled personality. The nanny following behind her is her personal nanny, Nanny Yu."

Knowing the identity of the visitor and seeing her arrogant look, Jiang Taohua didn't want to have any contact with her and stood up to leave.

She had just taken a few steps when an angry voice came from behind her, "Stop."

Jiang Taohua stopped and turned to look at her.

Long Yuzhu narrowed her eyes and looked at Jiang Taohua. "How dare you not greet me when you saw me? You even pretended not to see me. Which girl from this family is this one who doesn't know the rules?"

Jiang Taohua looked at her expressionlessly.

Seeing Jiang Taohua looking at her expressionlessly, Long Yuzhu's beautiful eyebrows knitted slightly and she said angrily, "Madam Yu, go and slap this ignorant little girl in the face."

"Yes, Fifth Princess."

Seeing Nanny Yu coming, Jiang Taohua stood there without moving until Nanny Yu walked up to her and wanted to raise her hand to hit her.

Jiang Taohua grabbed her wrist and slapped her face left and right, slapping her several times before stopping.

She is not someone who allows others to bully her, and she will never be polite to those who want to bully her.

Nanny Yu was stunned by the slaps and couldn't believe that she was hit. She was the most favored nanny around the fifth princess.

She served the Fifth Princess and was respected by everyone in the palace.

Even some noble ladies from aristocratic families respected her very much, but now she was beaten. Nanny Yu was furious.

Before she could react, Long Yuzhu, who had seen Nanny Yu being beaten by Jiang Taohua, jumped in and said angrily, "You little bastard, you actually dared to hit Nanny Yu! Someone, throw this little bastard into the pond to reflect on her actions."

Long Jingyan, who came to the Imperial Garden to look for Jiang Taohua, happened to hear this. His face was as gloomy as water and he walked into the waterside pavilion with a serious expression.

"what are you up to?"

Jiang Taohua noticed that Long Jingyan had arrived, so she didn't say anything after Long Yuzhu said this.

Long Yuzhu was immersed in anger when she suddenly heard a familiar cold voice coming from behind her. She was so scared that she trembled involuntarily and turned around carefully to look.

Seeing Long Jingyan's face as gloomy as water, his pair of dark eyes looking at her coldly, she couldn't help but feel a chill down her spine.

"Fourth, fourth brother." Long Yuzhu stuttered, her voice full of timidity, just like a child who had done something wrong and was afraid of being punished.

What she feared most was Long Jingyan. The aura of Long Jingyan was too terrifying.

Moreover, Long Jingyan is the emperor's most beloved son, and he holds a very high position in his heart.

When Nanny Yu saw Long Jingyan coming, she was so frightened that her body trembled. She carefully stepped forward and knelt before him, saying, "This servant pays homage to His Highness the Prince of Jin."

Long Jingyan ignored them and glanced at Jiang Taohua. He was relieved to find that she was not injured.
