The servant drank a couple more cups, and his head was spinning, but his hearing was fine.
Xiangyang's words scared him half to death, and he sobered up considerably in a flash.
He stood there, stunned, his eyes wide open.
Her mind raced. The young lady was like sisters to the two princesses, so the emperor couldn't possibly be here to cause trouble for her.
Who angered the Emperor?!
A sudden inspiration struck the servant, as if he had discovered a tremendous secret.
Good heavens!
The Imperial Guard married the girl the Emperor had chosen.
The servant quickly closed the gate and scrambled to the side courtyard.
God help me, Brother Gao, you have to hold it in!
Bright red lanterns hung high in the mansion, and the bright red double happiness patterns on the windows were quite eye-catching.
Xiao Jingzhao headed straight for Xingyue Courtyard.
Pass through the corridor and enter the second hanging flower gate.
Only now did Xiao Jingzhao realize how vast the Jiang residence was.
Just as I stepped outside Xingyue Courtyard, a dark figure descended from the sky.
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
It was Cang Yun's voice, which Xiao Jingzhao knew all too well.
"Where is your master right now?" Xiao Jingzhao asked, glancing up at the next room, his voice cold and suppressed.
"Your Majesty, I should be having tea with Young Master Nangong in the warm pavilion right now."
Cangyun was puzzled. What was wrong with the Emperor tonight?
The voice sounded like someone was trying their best to suppress their excitement.
If it's anything important, you can just send someone to deliver the message during the day. Is it really necessary to come all the way here in person?
"Cangyun, what are you still kneeling for! Lead the way now, or you'll be finished if you make a terrible mistake!"
Cangyun: "..." Where did this mistake come from?
As the Emperor stepped forward, his robes slapped heavily against Xiang Song as he passed Cang Yun.
Seeing the Emperor stride forward, Xiang Song pulled Cang Yun along.
"Hurry up and follow me. You take Young Master Nangong away in a bit, and leave the rest to me."
Cang Yun: "..." What's going on?
"Wait, no, why are we taking Young Master Nangong away? Miss still has important matters to discuss with him."
"Aren't you afraid the Emperor might do something rash in his excitement? Then you can stay here!"
A figure flashed by, and Xiang Song disappeared from the spot.
Cangyun didn't have time to think and leaped after him.
In the warm room.
Jiang Shuyue and Nangong Zeyue were chatting happily, and Nangong Zeyue would occasionally pour tea for Jiang Shuyue herself, while Lan'er couldn't help at all.
“Nangong Zeyue, Uncle Lin doesn’t know about my plans with Sister Du yet. You should help to give him some encouragement. As long as Uncle Lin meets with Aunt Du, I think this matter can be accomplished.”
Nangong Zeyue said, "Alright, I'll listen to you. My uncle is all alone, and I hope he can find a companion. If things go well, the two elders can live in the courtyard next door."
"Aunt Du isn't old at all, she's only in her early thirties. Uncle Lin is in good health, he could have two children in three years without any problem."
"puff!"
Lan'er couldn't help but laugh when she heard her young mistress's shocking words.
"Cough cough! It seems there's no problem." Nangong Zeyue coughed dryly, pressing his fist to his lips.
When she spoke of something she was happy about, her eyebrows danced with joy, as lively as a fairy descended from heaven.
Seeing that Nangong Zeyue was staring at her absentmindedly, Jiang Shuyue waved her hand in front of his eyes.
“I’m telling the truth. Look at the noble families in the capital. There are countless examples of men who, nearing fifty, took concubines and then had children born in their old age.”
"I don't doubt your words. Go ahead and tell me, is there anything I can do about opening that kind of shop?"
Nangong Zeyue's words struck a chord with her. The shop could no longer be named after incense, as it sold more than just incense.
We need to come up with a catchy name that immediately sounds like a women's product.
"Alright, I'll leave the naming to you. It's getting late, let's all get settled."
Nangong Zeyue stood up. "Okay, see you tomorrow morning."
Suddenly, the curtain was lifted, and a bright yellow figure rushed into the warm room, accompanied by a gust of cold wind.
The temperature inside the heated room plummeted.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Lan'er immediately knelt down to pay her respects.
Jiang Shuyue: "..."
Nangong Zeyue: "..."
Jiang Shuyue and Nangong Zeyue were both stunned when the Emperor suddenly appeared in front of them.
Xiao Jingzhao: "..."
this……
It seems there's a mistake!
Xiao Jingzhao looked at Jiang Shuyue, who was dressed in ordinary clothes. Her beautiful face showed no trace of makeup.
She wore a lotus-root-colored dress, but from head to toe, she showed no signs of being a bride.
Wrong, haste makes waste.
Xiao Jingzhao felt as if a dumpling was stuck in his throat, unable to swallow or spit it out.
"I, I have come to see Sui Sui."
Xiao Jingzhao forced a smile.
God knows how creepy that smile of his was.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
After exchanging a glance, Jiang Shuyue and Nangong Zeyue bowed down.
“Your Majesty, Sui Sui has to go to school tomorrow morning, so A Jin took him to the Su residence.” Jiang Shuyue curtsied.
"Get up, all of you. It's because the Empress Dowager is so concerned. I will bring him to the palace again tomorrow."
As Xiao Jingzhao spoke, he turned around. Everyone had their heads down, so no one could see how interesting the expression on his face was.
"I see the mansion is decorated with lanterns and streamers. Is there some happy occasion?" Xiao Jingzhao coughed lightly and asked.
I originally wanted to turn around and leave, but I was afraid of missing something and regretting it later.
Jiang Shuyue looked at Xiao Jingzhao's back and replied, "Your Majesty, today is the joyous occasion of Gao Mu and Qiu Ju's wedding."
After standing up, Nangong Zeyue moved to stand next to Jiang Shuyue, neither humble nor arrogant, silent, with a faint smile on her lips, as gentle as a spring breeze.
One was a handsome young man with a face like jade, the other a beautiful and charming woman of unparalleled beauty.
