"Mom, what's the big deal? If you miss your aunt, we can go to the north. I haven't seen the scenery there yet."
Chang Yue nodded, "That's a good idea. As long as everyone is well, distance won't be a problem."
"Mom, you are absolutely right." Xia Zhiliao said with a smile.
Xia Jinjun also nodded, "Yes, although Lord Mu is indeed a married man, his character is still beyond reproach. We don't have to worry if Jinxiu follows him. Jinxiu is sincere to those children, and the children are also kind-hearted and will understand."
"Mu Zhuoxuan really wants my aunt to be his mother. Besides, Lord Mu is such an upright person, so his children will not be bad people either."
Xia Jinjun nodded, "Xiao Zhiliao is right. Now we just have to see whether the emperor will let things go smoothly."
Xia Zhiliao's smile froze. Indeed, the key to the problem still lies with the emperor. If he really wants to stop it, he has a thousand or ten thousand ways to do it.
At that time, the Xia family will face life threats again. It seems that the aunt will definitely disobey the order. If she does not, her fate will be the same as in the novel.
"It's okay, I'll go and talk to her." Princess Yi Yang said.
[Grandma is so kind, but the emperor is no longer the little emperor who always listens to you. He is already a mature emperor. If you control him too much, he will be unhappy.]
Chang Yue's face changed drastically. "Mother, we can still wait. What if the emperor has thought it through? A forced melon is not sweet. He has all the women he wants. If you steal the wife of a minister, you will be ridiculed by the world."
Xia Jinjun didn't want Princess Yiyang to take risks either. "Mother, this matter has not reached the point where you have to speak up. Let's wait a little longer."
Princess Yi Yang just felt that Emperor Shunde had become unrecognizable to her and was becoming more and more like an emperor.
"You have already stopped Zhiliao's marriage. If you stop Jinxiu's, the emperor will be unhappy." Xia Jinjun sighed.
Princess Yi Yang didn't want to admit it, but hiding the bow when the birds are gone was undoubtedly the best way to protect herself.
She was crazy before, but Emperor Shunde didn't care and even acted like a filial son.
But now that she is well, it is unknown whether things would have taken a different turn.
In order to avoid any complications, Xia Jinxiu and Mu Zhuoxuan hastily set the wedding date three days later.
When Emperor Shunde found out, he was furious.
Su Dequan was so frightened that he was silent, not even daring to breathe.
"Well, Xia Jinxiu, you are so ungrateful."
Su Dequan didn't expect that the girl from the Xia family would be so stubborn. She said she would not enter the palace, and she really did not want to enter the palace.
"Decree that Mu Zhanpeng has made outstanding achievements and will definitely be able to govern the north well. If he fails to govern well, he will not be allowed to return to the capital."
"yes!"
Su Dequan quickly retreated.
"Is father here?" Wen Yan asked.
"exist!"
"What's wrong?" Wen Yan saw Su Dequan's frightened look, "What happened?"
"Eighth Prince, the master is angry in there, you have to be careful."
"What is it?"
Su Dequan took a deep breath. He was an old man close to Emperor Shunde, so he naturally knew how Emperor Shunde treated this prince differently.
He lowered his voice and explained the matter briefly.
Wen Yan nodded, "I see, I understand. Go ahead."
Wen Yan strode in and knelt down to greet.
When Emperor Shunde saw him, he was still very angry, but he did not vent his anger on him, "Get up."
"Why are you here?" Emperor Shunde's voice was very majestic.
"Father, I came to see you, but I just heard from Su Dequan that... you are angry."
"This slave, his tongue is no longer wanted."
Wen Yan took a deep breath and said, "Father, please calm down."
If it were someone else, Emperor Shunde would have just told him to get lost, but in front of Wen Yan, he actually felt a little unreasonable and out of control.
Because the child's mother is his favorite woman.
And now he was furious because another woman was with someone else.
Emperor Shunde felt a little guilty.
Wen Yan also understood.
"I am just angry that Xia Jinxiu doesn't know how to appreciate my kindness."
Wen Yan smiled faintly, "I understand, but since she doesn't know how to appreciate it, it's because she doesn't have this blessing. Why should your father be angry?"
"The Xia family is relying on my status and they don't take me seriously." Emperor Shunde said coldly.
"Father, everything the Xia family has now is given by you. It's all because of your words." Wen Yan said, "She's just a woman. You don't have to hurt the relationship between you and your great-aunt for her."
Emperor Shunde knew that if he really tried to keep the person by force, his aunt would definitely step forward to stop him.
To be honest, it wasn't that he liked Xia Jinxiu that much, he just wasn't willing to accept it.
As an emperor, women should be available at his beck and call.
"Are you here to plead for them?"
Emperor Shunde asked in a deep voice: "Who came to see you? Xia Zhiliao?"
Wen Yan shook his head. "Father, you have a great reputation throughout your life. I don't want to hurt everyone's harmony and your reputation because of a woman. However, after listening to what Su Dequan said just now, I feel that my coming here is unnecessary."
"We should send Mu Zhanpeng to the north to serve our royal family and let him know the punishment for challenging the majesty of the royal family."
"Yan'er, you are too soft-hearted." Emperor Shunde said, "Just like your mother."
"Is it really not Xia Zhiliao who came to see you?"
Wen Yan shook his head, "Really not."
"Then I can still do you a favor."
Wen Yan was stunned for a moment, "Father, that's not necessary."
Emperor Shunde smiled and said, "It's not that I must marry a woman from the Xia family, but I just want to see what it's like for a woman from the Xia family to enter the palace."
Isn't that a rejection?
If the aunt refuses, then the niece will come.
Wen Yan frowned, "Father!"
Emperor Shunde curled his lips, a cold light flashed in his eyes, "Go down, I have made up my mind."
Wen Yan knew that Emperor Shunde was doing this for his own good, but he still felt that it was meaningless.
He didn't believe that he couldn't get the little girl by himself.
This makes him appear incompetent.
Unexpectedly, he met Wen Heng on his way back to the palace.
"Have you heard about the Xia family's affairs?"
Wen Heng has been in the palace all this time. Even if he has spies, he can't get any news unless he leaves the palace.
"What? What happened to the Xia family?" Wen Heng asked nervously.
Wen Yan sighed, "It seems that you are really worried about the Xia family."
When Wen Heng knew the whole story, his brows were tightly furrowed and a disdainful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
How could he respect such an emperor and such a father?
"I have already advised my father, you don't need to cause trouble again."
Wen Heng raised his eyebrows and looked at him, "Why are you telling me this?"
