Chapter 141 A Great Gift

He had a tearful face and asked, "Now that my fifth sister is gone, who am I going to play with?"

Shangguan Lin glanced at him and said, "You are playing with Master Xu."

Shangguan Hong was so angry that his teeth were bared.

Who would want to play with the Master?

Shangguan Hong protested loudly, "Then I want to go too! I want to go to Xia Country with my fifth sister!"

De Fei slapped him on the head and glared at him, "Where are you going?"

She will go with me if I want to go~

Shangguan Hong pointed his index finger at Xiao Ziyuan who was standing next to Shangguan Sui with great dissatisfaction.

"Then why can he go with the fifth sister?!"

Xiao Ziyuan lowered his red phoenix eyes slightly and spoke in a faint voice.

"Because my father died, my mother doesn't care about me,"

His mother said that since he was going out with the fifth princess, there would be no problem.

And going out and seeing the world more often can also broaden your horizons.

Shangguan Hong opened his mouth, "Then can my father also..."

Before he could say anything, a big slap landed on his head.

Shangguan Hong cried out in pain.

When I turned around, I met Shangguan Lin's cold gaze.

Shangguan Lin glared at him, "What do you want to do, kid?!"

Does this brat want to imitate Xiao Ziyuan and kill his father?

Shangguan Hong was frightened by his eyes. He immediately shrank his neck and his voice became stammering.

"No, nothing."

I wouldn't have said it if I had known this earlier...

I secretly said in my heart, hehe.

The news quickly spread throughout the capital.

The fifth princess Shangguan Sui is about to represent the Dayue Kingdom on a diplomatic mission to the Xia Kingdom. This little envoy is only five years old this year.

The streets were immediately abuzz with discussion.

A long-faced man frowned and said, "Is the emperor crazy? A five-year-old baby can't even speak fluently, how can he be an envoy? The Xia country might laugh at us for having no one in the court!"

A young man in blue next to him glanced at him.

"That's because you don't know the Fifth Princess. This Women's Medical School is run by her and the Princess. Although she is only five years old, she should not be underestimated."

"As for the Meixian epidemic this time, I heard that it was the Fifth Princess who reminded the Emperor."

The long-faced man opened his mouth wide immediately, "How can a baby be so powerful?"

The young man in blue nodded, "Who says it's not true? Maybe this mission can really make our relationship with Xia Country better."

Although Dayue Kingdom is now in alliance with Xia Kingdom, there is not much actual interaction between the two countries.

All we can say is that it is a policy of non-aggression. The relationship is not that good at all, and there is very little interaction between the people.

The Fifth Princess's mission this time might be a turning point...

At the same time, the results of the palace examination came out today.

Li Huaizhi indeed won the top prize.

Shangguan Lin was very pleased with him and immediately arranged a small banquet.

I want Li Huaizhi and Shangguan Li to meet.

Shangguan Sui knew about this and started to act coquettishly towards Concubine Chen.

She held Concubine Chen in her arms and rocked her non-stop, her voice soft and sweet.

"Mom, mom, I want to go too. Please let me go and take a look. Mom is the best! I love you the most!"

[Hey, live blind date! How can I miss it! ]

The Concubine Chen smiled helplessly, reached out and touched her soft hair, and said gently: "Since you want to go, then go together, and you can also help your second sister with the consultation."

The Concubine Chen helped Shangguan Sui put on small clothes and got him to sit on the sedan chair.

The two of them soon arrived at the banquet venue.

In the hall, Shangguan Li was wearing a lake blue silk dress, with willow-shaped eyebrows and slightly drooping eyes.

The whole person has a calm, gentle and beautiful temperament.

When Shangguan Sui saw her, he immediately trotted over to her side.

She raised her cute little face, and said with a smile, "Hello, Second Sister!"

[I haven't seen my second sister for a long time. She is still so beautiful! ]

Shangguan Li's heart softened as well, and she reached out and pinched her little face.

"I have been recuperating in Huguo Temple for some time. It has indeed been a long time since I last saw Sui Sui."

She prefers quietness by nature, so a temple with only the sound of cicada bells is more suitable for her.

I read some poems and talk about Buddhist scriptures with the abbot every day, which is very relaxing and enjoyable.

The two chatted for a while, and then Shangguan Lin and Li Huaizhi came in.

Shangguan Lin admired Li Huaizhi's talent very much, and the two talked a lot about taxation and the imperial examination process.

But when he entered the hall and saw Shangguan Sui, his attention was immediately diverted.

Shangguan Lin's eyes were full of smiles, and his voice became much softer, and he unconsciously clamped his lips together.

"Sui Sui, you're here too."

He quickly walked towards Shangguan Sui and directly reached out and took her away from Shangguan Li.

Li Huaizhi was left where he was, and couldn't help but chuckle helplessly.

It is rumored that the emperor dotes on the fifth princess, and it is true.

Shangguan Li put down the teacup in her hand and looked up at Li Huaizhi.

He had a handsome face, a tall and graceful figure, and was polite and generous in his manners.

But her eyes were very calm, without any emotion.

Shangguan Li nodded slightly towards Li Huaizhi as a greeting.

Li Huaizhi also immediately bowed and saluted respectfully.

Shangguan Sui nestled in Shangguan Lin's arms. He turned his head and glanced at this scene, then sighed softly.

[Tsk, it seems that there is no spark of love between the second sister and Li Huaizhi. ]

Shangguan Lin's brows twitched slightly, and he turned his head to look over.

I noticed that Li Huaizhi and Shangguan Li's expressions were very serious and polite, without any shyness at all.

Shangguan Lin couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

Li Huai is quite good at judging people, and he is quite optimistic about it.

Unfortunately, it seems that neither of these two people has this intention.

Thinking of this, Shangguan Lin suddenly felt that this banquet was not very interesting.

After eating something in a hurry, he drove Li Huaizhi away.

Before leaving, Shangguan Sui waved to Li Huaizhi.

[It’s a pity that my second sister doesn’t like you. Bye~]

Li Huaizhi didn't understand what she meant. He just thought the Fifth Princess was pretty and adorable, so he smiled and waved at her.

After Li Huaizhi left, Shangguan Lin turned around and looked at Shangguan Li.

He still felt a little regretful.

He asked aloud, "Li'er, what do you think of Li Huaizhi?"

Shangguan Li pursed her lips slightly, "Mr. Li is a gentleman."

But she really didn't feel...

Shangguan Li naturally knew that the purpose of Shangguan Lin arranging this banquet was to choose a husband for her.

But she really has no interest in these things now.

Shangguan Li thought of this, and suddenly stood up, walked to the center of the hall, and bowed deeply to Shangguan Lin.

Shangguan Lin’s eyes widened.

"Li'er, what are you doing?"

Shangguan Li raised her eyes and said in a firm tone, "If you haven't met a good man yet, why force yourself? Li'er is willing to remain single for the rest of her life and serve her father, the Empress Dowager."

After saying this, she leaned forward again and bowed deeply.

Shangguan Sui looked at Shangguan Li in front of him and blinked gently.

Then he nodded vigorously.

[My second sister is so cool! ]

[The princess doesn’t need anyone to save her, she is the princess herself! 】

Shangguan Li heard what was going on and also winked at Shangguan Sui.

It’s still the fifth sister who understands her.

Shangguan Lin raised his eyes and looked at her. After a brief thought, he spoke gently.

"As long as it is your own decision, Father will support you no matter what."

The Dayue Kingdom is a powerful country and does not need to marry off its princess to other countries, and he would not do such a thing.

His daughter, as long as she is happy.

Shangguan Li and Shangguan Sui smiled at each other when they heard this.

[Great! Father is still enlightened! ]

Three days later, Shangguan Lin and Chen Fei finally packed Shangguan Sui's luggage.

A group of people came in a grand procession to see Shangguan Sui off at the gate of the imperial palace.

Shangguan Hong cried with tears and snot, sobbing: "Fifth sister, you, you must come back soon, come back..."

Shangguan Sui stood on tiptoe and wanted to touch Shangguan Hong's hair to comfort him.

But he found that he could only reach Shangguan Hong's chest by standing on tiptoe.

Finally, I had to get closer and gently pat his little hand.

She coaxed him in a baby voice: "Don't worry, I'll be back soon."

[Xiaguo's matter is not difficult. I will definitely be able to resolve it in three months at most.]

Shangguan Hong felt better after hearing what was going on.

"Sui Sui, this is for you."

Shangguan Sui turned around and found Feng Xici, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
