Wang Xiao didn't expect Eunuch Yu to be so straightforward, and his face suddenly turned red.
"Look, is what we said right?"
"Actually, this is nothing. However, Guard Wang, your Majesty is no longer the Crown Prince. You must be more careful when walking around this palace."
"If you really like Miss Tianxuan, you must inform His Majesty in advance."
"Otherwise, when Miss Tianxuan reaches old age and is released from the palace, it won't be easy for you to see her again."
After Eunuch Yu finished speaking, he shut up tactfully, but Wang Xiao took his words to heart.
However, Shangguan Lingyun is very busy now, so he naturally won't cause trouble for him at this time.
"Eunuch Yu, you are overthinking it. This concerns the reputation of a young lady. Please don't say such things again."
Eunuch Yu laughed and nodded, and Wang Xiao stood back in his original position.
In the distance, Tianxuan listened to the conversation behind him and raised his eyelids slightly.
Then, he walked towards Ye Xiaoxiao's bedroom as if nothing had happened.
"Miss, His Majesty wants you to prepare a small banquet. He wants to entertain Prince Dayu."
Ye Xiaoxiao thought about it and agreed, but when she looked up, she still noticed something different about Tianxuan.
"Tianxuan, are you feeling unwell? Why is your face so red?"
Tianxuan was stunned for a moment and immediately shook his head.
"No, maybe I left in a hurry just now."
Ye Xiaoxiao looked at Tianxuan in confusion. Tianxuan's face turned even redder, and at the same time, her inner voice rang in Ye Xiaoxiao's ears.
[Is it that obvious? Wang Xiao's words must have confused me.]
[Your Majesty and the young lady are busy right now, I can't cause them any trouble.]
Ye Xiaoxiao didn't expect that this matter was related to Wang Xiao, so she kept it in mind silently.
"Since you're alright, you can go down first. If you're tired, take a rest. I don't need you to serve me for the time being."
Tianxuan nodded, turned and left, while Ye Xiaoxiao fell into deep thought.
However, the marriage was more important at the moment, so she didn't have time to think about it.
The day passed quickly, and when it was time for dinner, Ye Xiaoxiao waited for a while before Shangguan Lingyun hurried over.
"The court is busy with affairs, and I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. From now on, if I come back late, you can eat first, and you don't have to wait for me hungry."
Shangguan Lingyun did not address Ye Xiaoxiao as "I", and Ye Xiaoxiao did not call herself "the concubine".
Seeing Shangguan Lingyun was leaving in a hurry, Ye Xiaoxiao couldn't help but remind him.
"Next time if you're busy, just let Wang Xiao inform me. There's no need to rush."
Shangguan Lingyun nodded, then hugged Ye Xiaoxiao in his arms and sighed.
"Xiaoxiao, ever since I became emperor, I always feel that time is becoming less and less sufficient."
Ye Xiaoxiao understood what he meant, but it was also a helpless move.
He used to be the crown prince, and although he assisted in the administration, he didn't have to be involved in all matters.
Now that he has become the king of a country, he has to take care of all matters, big and small, so naturally he doesn't have enough time.
"Xiaoxiao, I kind of regret getting rid of Shangguan Yu so quickly."
Ye Xiaoxiao pursed her lips. "In my opinion, you seem to be acting like a spoiled brat now because you got the upper hand."
Shangguan Lingyun curled his lips, but only he knew what he was thinking.
"When do you plan to arrange a banquet for Dugu Xin?"
Ye Xiaoxiao interrupted Shangguan Lingyun's sigh and asked about the business.
Shangguan Lingyun thought for a moment and then said.
"This matter should be done sooner rather than later. Dayu's situation hasn't been peaceful lately, and Dugu Xin must be getting anxious. Why not schedule it for tomorrow at noon?"
Ye Xiaoxiao nodded, but before the two of them could finish their conversation, they heard Eunuch Yu come to report.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Crown Prince Dayu requests an audience."
Shangguan Lingyun frowned, but still asked someone to invite Dugu Xin in.
After Dugu Xin arrived at the hall where the two were having their meal, he did not exchange much pleasantries with them.
Eunuch Yu tactfully withdrew, and only the three of them were left in the hall.
"Why are you so anxious? Did something happen?"
Ye Xiaoxiao spoke first, Dugu Xin's expression eased slightly, and then he sat down opposite the two of them.
"Do you mind if I dine with you?"
Shangguan Lingyun made a gesture of invitation and then personally handed him a jar of wine.
"That's not like you."
Dugu Xin laughed at himself, "You speak as if you know me very well."
Shangguan Lingyun remained silent, and Dugu Xin looked at the two of them with a faint smile.
"It's true that I came a little too hastily. I'm sure you've all heard about what happened between Xinya and Ye Sheng."
Shangguan Lingyun nodded. "Of course. Is this why you came here?"
Dugu Xin smiled bitterly, "Yes, but not entirely."
"Something really happened over there at Dayu. I can't stay here any longer."
"Since Xinya and Ye Sheng have already had physical contact and have feelings for each other, we should settle the marriage as soon as possible."
Ye Xiaoxiao felt that something was wrong. "This concerns the lifelong happiness of two people. Isn't this a bit too hasty?"
Shangguan Lingyun knew that Ye Xiaoxiao's ideas were different from those of the people here, so he didn't say anything.
Dugu Xin also knew that Ye Xiaoxiao was different from others, but marriage was not a simple emotional matter.
The interests involved have been unclear since ancient times.
"Men in the Ye family never take concubines. For Xinya, this is already a very good destination."
"What's more, Xinya and Ye Sheng are in love now, and with the help of you two, I believe they will live a happy life."
"But if Xinya returns to Dayu with me, I'm afraid her marriage will be even worse than a marriage alliance."
Ye Xiaoxiao knew Dayu's current situation, so she also understood that what Dugu Xin said was true.
Sighing, Ye Xiaoxiao looked at Dugu Xin again.
"Then what did Princess Xinya say herself? Does she really agree?"
Dugu Xin smiled faintly, "She treated you like this, yet you still considered her. You are truly unique."
[Haha, I know she has no bad intentions.]
If she continues to compete with me for men, how can I possibly care about her life or death?
When Shangguan Lingyun heard what Ye Xiaoxiao was thinking, the smile on his lips became more obvious.
Dugu Xin felt a little bitter, then raised his glass and took a gulp.
"Xinya will be in your hands from now on."
After Dugu Xin finished speaking, he raised his glass again and toasted Shangguan Lingyun and Ye Xiaoxiao.
"After I go back this time, I'm afraid I won't be able to see you for a while."
Shangguan Lingyun drank the wine in the glass, then looked at Dugu Xin with a faint smile.
"Good luck to you. Xiaoxiao and I will be waiting for your good news in Daxia."
Dugu Xin smiled knowingly, and Ye Xiaoxiao also drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.
"We heard that you will get married after you return. We wish you happiness in advance."
"When you get married, I will send someone to give you a surprise gift."
Dugu Xin looked at Ye Xiaoxiao with some curiosity.
"Oh? I wonder what the gift is? Can you tell me in advance?"
