Thinking of this, Qin Shouzhen couldn't help but grit his teeth, his brows furrowing into a deep frown, and his hands unconsciously clenching.
It was as if he wanted to condense all the helplessness and resentment in his heart into his fist, muttering to himself.
This little fox is so shrewd and skillful; he has unknowingly stolen his daughter's heart!
But whenever I see Qin Qianluo's happy smile because of Su Jinyun, that smile is like the brightest sunshine in spring, illuminating the whole world.
Qin Shouzhen, who was usually decisive and uncompromising, gradually softened his once iron-willed heart.
Although Su Jinyun is cunning and intelligent, her affection for Luo'er is written all over her face, and the doting look in her eyes is impossible to hide.
Although there is a slight age gap between the two, Su Jinyun has always maintained a clean and virtuous character over the years.
In this complex and tempting world, it is truly rare to have never had any beautiful women around me.
Even so, Qin Shouzhen would not easily entrust his daughter to her, because agreeing is one thing, but entrusting his daughter to her is another.
The emperor wore an extremely magnificent bright yellow dragon robe, on which the golden dragons embroidered were so lifelike that they seemed about to take off.
The jade belt around her waist was inlaid with large and dazzling gemstones, which reflected a brilliant light in the morning light.
He sat upright on the majestic dragon throne carved with nine golden dragons, his expression dignified, his eyes piercing, as if he could see through everything as he looked down upon the morning court session that His Highness was holding.
Just then, Ning Chenyi's gaze inadvertently swept down to Qin Qianluo, who was sitting to the left.
Qin Qianluo was dressed in prince's robes, her posture still upright, but she seemed distracted.
Her gaze would occasionally wander, her eyes darting around, and the scepter in her hand would sway slightly, as if she didn't care at all about the solemn and dignified court proceedings.
Seeing this scene, Ning Chenyi couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly. Then, his gaze quietly turned to Prime Minister Qin Shouzhen beside him.
Qin Shouzhen was slightly thin and had a calm and composed expression, but he would occasionally glance at Qin Qianluo out of the corner of his eye.
Ning Chenyi instantly made up his mind, secretly planning that after the court session, he would definitely have a private talk with Prime Minister Qin.
After all, the fact that Qin Qianluo had a fondness for women was already known throughout the court.
At first, when everyone heard the news, it was like a bomb going off, with all sorts of speculations and rumors flying around.
However, after such a long period of time, people have gradually accepted this fact.
Moreover, given the remarkable achievements Qin Qianluo has made over the years, praise for her from all levels of the court has poured in like a tidal wave.
Even if she preferred married women, given her outstanding contributions, it was reasonable for people to be understanding.
However, which girl Qin Qianluo truly loved remained a mystery, lingering in everyone's minds.
Unable to solve or guess the mystery, this greatly aroused Ning Chenyi's intense curiosity.
Ning Chenyi frowned, a thoughtful glint flashing in his deep eyes as he quickly sorted through the people who had close ties with Qin Qianluo in his mind.
Apart from General Mu, Prime Minister Su, and the eldest daughter of the Xu family, Qin Qianluo did not seem to get particularly close to anyone else.
Thinking of this, he pretended to be calm and kept his expression unchanged, while secretly observing the expressions of General Mu and Prime Minister Su.
General Mu stood tall and straight, like a proud pine tree, his face cold and stern, his deep gaze seemingly hiding endless secrets, making him unfathomable.
Su Xiangze remained calm, his every move exuding elegance, as if everything was unrelated to him.
The two men appeared perfectly normal, showing no signs of distress. On the contrary, Physician Xu was beaming, as if he had won the lottery.
His lips couldn't help but curl upwards, and his smile was almost overflowing. He would occasionally chuckle to himself, and his smug look was truly eye-catching.
Could it be that Qin Qianluo really likes the eldest daughter of Physician Xu?
Ning Chenyi rested his chin on his hand, tapping the armrest rhythmically with his fingers. He frowned and pondered for a long time, but his mind remained blank, without any clue.
But as the emperor, he was overwhelmed by the heavy burden of state affairs every day.
It's rare to encounter such an interesting event, and I simply can't suppress my curiosity about Qin Qianluo's love life.
This gossip was like a raging fire, burning brighter and brighter in his heart, making him eager to know the answer.
After the court session, Ning Chenyi strode back to the Imperial Study with hurried steps.
Inside the study, sandalwood bookshelves are filled with a dazzling array of classic books, exuding a faint, refreshing fragrance, as if telling the story of the weight of history.
As soon as Ning Chenyi sat down, he immediately ordered his guards to summon the leader of the Shadow Guards.
Before long, the newly appointed leader of the Shadow Guards arrived in a hurry, dressed in a black outfit, with a lithe figure and a mask, like a ghost.
He looked at his emperor, who was filled with barely suppressed curiosity, and his expression was quite complicated. A hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes. He shook his head slightly and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
But he could not disobey the emperor's order, so he had no choice but to kneel on one knee and perform a respectful bow with a swift and decisive movement.
His voice was deep and powerful as he truthfully replied, "Your Majesty, the person that Prince Jinrui Zhao admires should be Prime Minister Su."
Upon hearing the Shadow Guard leader's report that Qin Qianluo's beloved was Prime Minister Su, Ning Chenyi unconsciously rubbed his chin with his fingertips, his sword-like eyebrows furrowing slightly.
A hint of surprise flashed across his deep eyes.
In his previous estimation, Xu Qian, the daughter of Physician Xu, had frequent interactions with Qin Qianluo, so she was very likely the person Zhao Wang admired.
