Chapter 173 Meeting the Emperor



Bai Guo disagreed, "Miss, that's right. His Royal Highness treats you differently from other ladies."

Lu Seyan glanced at her. If this person had not been sent by the old lady, she would never have let her follow and would have sent her away long ago.

"Bai Guo, how old am I, your daughter? And I just returned to the mansion not long ago. I only want to honor my grandmother and nothing else. You know this for my own good. If you don't know, you might think you want to cause trouble for me."

Bai Guo was so scared that he quickly shook his head, "No, no, Miss, I'm telling the truth, I...you are my master, I hope you are well."

Lu Seyan nodded and gave him a sweet date at the right time, "Of course I know you are doing this for my own good. My grandmother asked me to choose you personally, but I am a cautious young lady, not to mention my eldest sister..."

Bai Guo whispered, "It's true that the eldest lady likes the prince, but he doesn't treat her as well as he treats you."

She stuck out her tongue and said, "Miss, that's what I'm telling you."

Lu Seyan curled her lips, "Got it, let's go quickly."

The three brothers met at Xia Jiang's place, and Xia Hai couldn't help but tease, "Second brother, what's wrong with you? Why is your face red? Normally, you can run for an incense stick of time without even breathing hard."

Xia Jiang rolled his eyes at him and said, "Why am I blushing? Don't talk nonsense."

"Brother, look at him, isn't that the girl just now... Hehe, she looks prettier than our country girls."

"Nonsense! If dad knew about this, he would definitely beat you. How old are you, yet you're already thinking about girls?" Xia Jiang said coldly.

But I have to say, that girl just now looked so weak and frail, and was really pretty.

Did he really just blush?

Xia He looked at his two younger brothers, who were even more slow in this regard. "Hurry up and meet up with your parents and sister. It would be bad if they get lost."

Xia Jiang nodded, "That's right."

Xia Hai curled his lips. If it's lost, just ask for it in the General's Mansion and go back. What if you can't find it?

When Xia Jinjun saw Lu Seyan, he didn't really feel anything. He had nothing to fear as he was upright. He was just worried that his wife and daughter would misunderstand him. However, it seemed that the little girl didn't think about this matter either.

After being apart for such a short while, Xia Jinxiu had already bought a lot of things. Xia Jinheng couldn't help but tease her, "Are you going to move everything back to Beijing?"

Xia Jinxiu snorted coldly, "So what? Isn't the purpose of making money to spend? I'm spending my own money, and I'm happy."

Xia Jinheng shrugged his shoulders. It was true. He was unable to refute it. Then he looked at his wife. She did buy things, but very little. She was not interested in them. But that didn't mean she didn't like to dress up. His wife was also very good-looking.

"Sister-in-law, didn't you buy some?"

Xia Chen smiled and shook her head. She really had nothing in her hands. "I want to take a look first and then buy some back. I'm not leaving tomorrow anyway."

Xia Jinjun nodded, fully agreeing with what his wife said.

"It's okay. I'll bring you whatever you want to buy."

"How can this be so embarrassing? Brother Jianqing, you have important things to do. I am already very embarrassed today. We are not children. We know this road well. You can just turn around and walk around by yourself."

Wei Jianqing looked at Xia Jinjun, "Second brother, you are being polite to me again, aren't you?"

"I'm not being polite. I'm just afraid of delaying your work."

"Okay, my second brother wants to accompany my second sister-in-law alone, I'm afraid you don't understand." Xia Jinxiu said.

Wei Jianqing suddenly realized, and then blushed and said: "Then I won't come, but if you need anything, please don't be polite to me. My father is happy if you come, and I am happy too."

【Uncle Wei is such a good man. 】

Everyone agreed with the little girl's words. After all, they could all feel Wei Jianqing's enthusiasm.

Wei Jianqing was busy asking everyone to go home. He was young and strong, and seemed to never get tired.

But when he reached the door of his house, he suddenly stopped.

"Hiss~"

Xia Jinjun looked at Xia Jinyu. The two brothers didn't know what was going on. "Brother Jianqing, what's wrong?"

Wei Jianqing cleared his throat, "The emperor is here."

Everyone was stunned, and Xia Jinheng kept swallowing his saliva.

He is going to see the emperor now?

Xia Jinxiu pursed her lips. Why did she meet the old emperor again?

[What should I do with my aunt? If the emperor falls in love with my aunt, wouldn't that mean I'm doomed? ]

Wei Jianqing didn't know that the Xia family's ugly expressions were because of this, he just thought they were scared, "Don't be afraid, the emperor may be here because of my father's resignation."

But the Xia family still looked ugly.

Xia Jinxiu's eyes rolled. No matter what, she didn't want to be buried with someone else in this life.

"Brother Jianqing, I just remembered that I forgot to buy something."

"Is it important? I'll go buy it with you tomorrow."

Xia Jinxiu nodded, "Yes, it's very important. If I don't buy it today, it will be gone. I have to go back. These... Fifth Brother, please help me take them in."

Xia Jinqing, who was always quiet, nodded and said a few more words, "Buy the important things quickly. If you miss it, it will be gone. Don't rush back."

"Oh, I...I understand." After saying this, Xia Jinxiu quickly slipped away.

As soon as she left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Without seeing her, the emperor wouldn't fall in love with someone out of nowhere!

Wei Jianqing smiled, "Sister Jinxiu, are you afraid of meeting the emperor? The emperor is not fierce, you will know when you meet him."

Xia Jinjun did not respond this time. He was still a little scared, but apart from Jinxiu, it seemed that the others had no connection with the emperor, so it was okay for him to go back.

If everyone leaves now, it will arouse suspicion, right?

Wei Jianqing was taking the Xia family back when he met Emperor Shunde who was about to leave, and he bumped into them at the door.

The Xia family members quickly knelt down and paid their respects.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but Xia Zhiliao always felt like a pair of eyes were passing over his head, as if searching for something?

Emperor Shunde looked at the people kneeling on the ground, thinking back to the snacks he had just seen at General Wei's place. The snacks had a special taste and he remembered it after having eaten them once.

Therefore, he concluded that this family must be acquainted with Wen Heng.

Then Wen Heng and General Wei...

Originally, he didn't want General Wei to resign, but now it seems that he has no choice but to agree.

"Just now, I ate a special kind of snack from General Wei. It tasted very strange..."

[It’s over, it’s over. The Emperor is not going to find my aunt, is he? If things continue like this, my aunt will have to enter the palace, and our whole family will die! ]

Emperor Shunde looked around and saw two people dressed as women, but General Gao clearly said that it was done by a girl.

He wanted to see what kind of girl could be so kind and graceful as to make such a dessert, but since he didn't see it, that didn't matter.
