Looking closely at Shen Ruyi, I discovered that this little girl had a very good appearance and should be rich and powerful no matter how you looked at her.

Minister Xiao nodded in satisfaction, glanced at Xiao Pingxin and said, "Pingxin came to the palace last night. The emperor meant that from now on you don't have to call her Shen Ruyi anymore. Just drop the Shen surname and call her Ruyi or Zhaoyang."

"From now on, I will have nothing to do with the Shen family."

Minister Xiao said, looking at Ruyi, "Ruyi, do you know what the emperor means?"

Shen Ruyi thought for a moment and said, "The Prime Minister's Mansion is not clean. The Emperor probably doesn't want me, the lucky star of Ziwei, to get dirty... My daughter, remember this!"

As he said this, he bowed to Minister Xiao.

Minister Xiao nodded and looked around. "I see you only have one little maid to serve you. She's young and can't handle everything. How about this? Should I arrange two more maids for you, or should you go to the black market and buy a few maids who know martial arts?"

I have to say that Minister Xiao's considerations were very careful.

He even glanced at Xiao Pingxin and said, "If you want to buy it, let Pingxin go with you. The black market is not safe, so you should be careful."

Shen Ruyi thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll have to trouble my second brother."

Xiao Pingxin is the second child of the Xiao family. Although he is a General Xiao, he has a clean and handsome appearance, especially when he smiles, two cute dimples appear at the corners of his mouth.

It was the first time he heard someone call him brother, and the dimples on his lips were exposed. "You're too polite, sister. We are a family from now on."

"I'll go to the black market with you later."

"Thank you, second brother."

Ruyi couldn't help but smile when she heard that.

Although she is not used to her new family, she believes that the affection between people is developed slowly through getting to know each other.

Moreover, with the emperor's support, the Xiao family should not bully her.

"So, you have directly become a girl of the Xiao family?"

On one side, Yan Weiyun was eating half a frozen pear, staring at the scene in amazement.

Just now he was worried that Shen Ruyi would be sad alone in the future, so he wanted to take her away.

As a result, in the blink of an eye, the emperor had arranged everything?

After all the years he had been in this world, this was the first time he saw the emperor show such love and attention to a woman other than his own daughter. Ziwei Fuxing was really different.

Xiao Pingxin was stunned for a moment, then he noticed Yan Weiyun in the corner, and was shocked, "Prince Yan? How did you get yourself into this state?"

It really wasn’t that he didn’t respect the Prince of Yan’s Mansion.

Honestly, if he goes out like this, who would recognize him unless he confronts her in the face?

Minister Xiao was also stunned for a moment, "Prince Yan?"

"Greetings, Lord Shangshu."

Yan Weiyun stood up and bowed with a smile.

Then he stepped forward, with his hair flying, and put his paw on Xiao Pingxin's shoulder, "General Xiao, from now on you will be my brother-in-law, you must take good care of us Ruyi."

Xiao Pingxin was embarrassed, "Prince Yan, be careful with your words. Ruyi is a lucky star of Ziwei, don't cause trouble for her. She can't decide her marriage by herself."

Minister Xiao also advised, "Prince Yan, since you have said so much, I really need to have a good talk with you."

"There are some things you don't understand at home."

"Ruyi is the lucky star of the Purple Star, and the Purple Star represents the appearance of an emperor. Let alone if she marries you, even if she marries an ordinary citizen, there will be people who think that the ordinary citizen is a Purple Star and should be the supreme ruler of the world."

"Besides, you are the prince of the Prince of Yan's Mansion?"

"If she really loves you, your Prince Yan's Mansion will be in danger. If you don't know, you might think that Prince Yan's Mansion has two hearts towards the emperor."

"From now on, for the sake of our family, you must not say such things carelessly." Minister Xiao sighed, "Don't cause trouble for your father."

"When that happens, both the emperor and your father will have a hard time."

The old Prince of Yan is the emperor's sworn brother and commands a large army.

The emperor has always had a good relationship with him, but if Prince Yan marries Ziwei Fuxing, that would be another matter.

Prince Yan is not stupid.

He scratched his head when he heard that. "You guys, each of you has your own ideas. My father wants me to become an official. Isn't that exhausting? Forget it. If he doesn't want me to, then I won't."

"It is not necessary for a man to marry a wife."

An old bachelor who has lived two lifetimes finally falls in love with a woman, but now he can't even marry her.

In his opinion, it would be better to go to his fiefdom and live a carefree life some other day.

"I'm glad you understand." Minister Xiao sighed.

Then he looked at Shen Ruyi, "Ruyi, you are still young, and marriage cannot be rushed. The emperor has arranged for you to study with the high priest, the old beggar, and Master Yikong of the Prajna Hall."

"Even if you want to get married, there is no time."

Yan Weiyun was stunned. "Oh my god, the emperor actually gave all the powerful people to her as masters at once. Is this going to make her soar to heaven?"

It’s not that Yan Weiyun is making a fuss.

Rather, Li Xiangyi was the high priest of Northern Qi, and everything related to celestial phenomena and national destiny was in his hands. Not to mention his astrology, his martial arts were also unfathomable.

Moreover, his influence in the court is no less than Shen Cangyun!

What's more, now that Shen Cangyun is gone, Li Xiangyi is second only to the emperor.

What status does his disciple have?

Plus a Zen Master Yikong from the Prajna Hall…

Master Yikong is the emperor's senior brother and the person the emperor trusts the most.

Under the guidance of these two people, what position will Shen Ruyi occupy in the future?

Do you want her to inherit the position of high priest, or do you want her to inherit Prajna Hall?

Either way, it's earth-shaking.

Although Yan Weiyun is a playboy, he can understand these things if he thinks about them.

Shen Ruyi was also shocked, and looked at Minister Xiao in surprise, "Father, is this really what the emperor meant?"

Before she even had the chance to enter the palace, the emperor had already made arrangements for her future?

Is it because of Rong Yan?

Or is it because of...something else?

Shen Ruyi couldn't digest it for a moment.

Upon hearing this, Minister Xiao took a deep breath and sighed, "Not only that, after your family recognition banquet, you will have to set aside half a day every other day to serve the emperor."

"What?"

Shen Ruyi was stunned, "What does the emperor mean?"

Yan Weiyun was also stunned, "Could it be that the emperor wants her to enter the palace and become the queen?"

After all, the previous queen died early.

The throne has been vacant for more than 20 years!

It’s just right for Ziwei Fuxing to be the queen!

At the door, Han Jiang's face turned a little green.

What does the emperor mean?

Let lovers become mother and son?

Minister Xiao looked at everyone's reactions and was speechless. "Is the emperor that kind of person? He can be Ruyi's father, how could he have such thoughts?"

"What does he mean?"

Yan Weiyun couldn't think of any other possibility.

Minister Xiao sighed and looked at Shen Ruyi, "The Emperor said that you are a lucky star, so you should act like a lucky star, with both literary and military skills, and be able to control the government and pacify the world."

"Only in this way can one deserve this title."

Ruyi was so shocked that she came back to her senses with red eyes and said in a trembling voice: "The emperor has been so kind to me!"

The most difficult thing in life is the grace of recognition and appreciation.

This is how the emperor treated her.

Minister Xiao nodded when he heard this. "Our emperor is a man of both military and literary talents. He is not comparable to ordinary emperors. It is your honor to be born in his era."

Ruyi understood.

No one else would be able to give a woman such high expectations and such great authority.
