Chapter 753 He is in charge of this matter
After the interruption just now, Jiaojiao was no longer afraid of Emperor Xuande, and her words were inevitably bolder.
She tilted her head and asked, "Grandpa Emperor, can you please not marry my aunt off?"
As she spoke, she pursed her lips, her big eyes filled with disappointment. "They said my aunt is going to marry far away and will never come back."
The little girl was so sad that tears started to fall from her eyes as she spoke.
Song Yanxi felt distressed and quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears.
Unexpectedly, Jiaojiao suddenly grabbed her hand and asked in a tearful voice, "Mother, can I not get married?
Jiaojiao likes her aunt and doesn’t want her to get married.”
Song Yanxi couldn't answer her question for a moment.
Princess Roujia will eventually get married.
Even if she did not marry into the Liang Kingdom, in two or three years, the Queen would arrange for her to marry into a family of equal status.
She promised Jiaojiao that she would not lie to her.
Unable to get an answer from Song Yanxi, the little girl's tears fell even harder. She turned to Mo Jinchuan and asked, "Daddy, why aren't you talking?"
In her eyes, her father is an omnipotent hero.
Whatever others cannot do, as long as Dad steps in, he can definitely accomplish it.
So Daddy can definitely do this!
Facing Jiao Jiao's tearful eyes, Mo Jinchuan said with a sullen face, "Don't cry, your aunt will not marry outside the family."
The little girl doesn't know what it means to marry out.
But she could tell that his father meant that he would take care of this matter.
Jiaojiao burst into laughter immediately, wiped away her tears in a hurry, turned around and gave Emperor Xuande a big smile.
Before he could ask, she said crisply, "Grandpa Huang will not marry my aunt. Grandpa Huang is good."
As she spoke, she looked at the Queen and said, "Auntie won't marry, don't cry, Grandma!"
Listening to the tender child's voice, the queen's mood, which had finally calmed down, was disturbed again.
The little girl had not spent much time with her, but she could tell at a glance that she had just cried. However, His Majesty, as her bedmate, did not notice at all.
Maybe he saw it, but just didn't care.
The Queen pulled the corners of her lips, smiled gently and said, "My dear Jiaojiao, the Empress Dowager is not crying. She just got blinded by the wind when she came here."
"Wind?" The little girl tilted her head, suddenly thought of something, turned around and ran to the door.
The little hand grabbed a door and pulled it with great effort, saying as he pulled, "Close the door, and the wind will not blow against Grandma Huang."
The queen saw this and felt a little sad.
She smiled and said, "Jiaojiao is such a good child."
Jiaojiao said sweetly, "Grandma Huang is also nice."
At this moment of tenderness, Emperor Xuande said calmly: "If Yingxue were half as sensible as this girl, I wouldn't have to worry about her marriage."
The Queen's hand on her knee loosened and tightened again, and finally, unable to hold back, she asked, "Your Majesty blames Yingxue for not being sensible enough, but have you ever thought about how a child like this, who is still young, would cope with life in Liang, a country she is not familiar with?"
Emperor Xuande said with a cold face: "The Queen shouldn't ask me this."
He wants his daughter to marry a foreign prince, who else should he ask if not him?
The queen was full of confusion and looked in the direction he was looking. When she saw Mo Jinchuan's face, she understood something in an instant.
No wonder such a big fuss happened out of nowhere. It turned out that she was using her daughter as a scapegoat to force Prince Jin to submit.
But doesn't he know his son's temper better than anyone else?
Not to mention a sister who is not from the same mother, even if she is his biological sister, he may not compromise.
His move was clearly a bad idea!
Is there anything that a father and son can’t sit down and talk about properly?
The queen looked at the quarreling father and son, and for a moment she didn't know whether to feel sad or angry.
Now she only hoped that the dispute between them would not really involve her Xue'er.
Otherwise, even if it cost her life, she would never let Xue'er marry far away in Liang State.
Thinking of this, the queen took the lead in picking up her chopsticks, picked up a chicken drumstick and placed it in Jiaojiao's bowl, saying with a smile: "Jiaojiao, come and eat quickly, otherwise the food will get cold."
The little girl was indeed hungry, so she quickly ran over and sat down beside her, not forgetting to thank her.
She was just about to start eating when she swallowed silently, thinking of what Song Yanxi had told her before: the younger ones should not start eating before the elders.
I consoled myself mentally, "Wait a little while, just wait until Grandpa Huang starts eating."
Even though she covered her nose with her little hands, the aroma of the chicken legs still seeped in through her fingers, making her stomach growl.
She patted her belly and muttered, "Be good, tummy, don't make noises."
"Gurgle..." As if in response to her, her stomach suddenly growled even louder.
Jiaojiao covered her stomach, her face showing embarrassment.
She looked up at Emperor Xuande and said in distress, "Grandpa Emperor, aren't you hungry yet? Jiaojiao is almost starving."
As she spoke, her stomach growled again at just the right moment.
Emperor Xuande couldn't help but smile, picked up his chopsticks and said, "Let's eat first."
Having said that, except for Jiaojiao, the others at the table had already lost their appetite.
Although Song Yanxi was still sitting, her heart had already flown outside with Mo Yingxue.
Princess Roujia is simple-minded and would never have thought that there was such a thing behind today's events. She would only think that His Majesty simply dislikes her for being ignorant and wants to marry her off to the State of Liang.
Like Jiaojiao, she is a little crybaby who cries endlessly and wishes to drown people with her tears.
I don’t know how she is doing now.

Yunshu Palace.
Mo Yingxue threw herself into Concubine Li's arms, crying her heart out.
The loud crying woke up the Ninth Prince who had just fallen asleep.
The Ninth Prince was very happy to see her coming over suddenly, and stretched out his little hands for a hug.
Seeing that she was just crying and had no intention of paying attention to him, he started crying too.
For a moment, the hall was filled with the sounds of two cries, one big and one small, mixed together, making it very lively.
The nanny walked forward and wanted to take the ninth prince away, but she heard him crying even harder, his face flushed red.
Concubine Li hurriedly said, "Hurry up and go to Fengyi Palace to invite the Queen over."
Mo Yingxue raised her head from her arms and sobbed, "I don't want the Queen Mother."
She knew that her mother loved her the most and she didn't want to put her in a difficult position.
Concubine Li patted her back gently and ordered the palace maid, "Go and call Princess Yong'an. Tell her that the Ninth Prince has been crying non-stop tonight and ask her to come over quickly to see him."
Mo Yingxue sniffed but didn't object.
Not knowing what she was thinking about, she buried her head in Concubine Li's chest and cried even harder.
The ninth prince's cries were suppressed to the point where they were almost inaudible.
Seeing that his mother ignored him and was only concerned with coaxing Mo Yingxue, the Ninth Prince stopped crying and reached out to grab Concubine Li's sleeve.
Seeing that she ignored him, he suddenly became even angrier.
He opened his mouth and was about to howl when someone suddenly stuffed a wooden sculpture into his hand.
Concubine Li smiled gently and said, "Hao'er, be good and play by yourself for a while, okay? I will comfort your sister first."
The Ninth Prince looked at the wood carving and pursed his lips, obviously reluctant.
But he listened to Mo Yingxue's sad crying, and silently moved towards Concubine Li and leaned against her legs.
Then he raised his little hand, imitated Concubine Li, and slapped Mo Yingxue on the butt.
