Time always flies when you're together, and before you know it, the three-month period that Lin Han had agreed upon with the emperor had passed.
That day, the emperor finally got a chance to rest for a while and happened to run into Lin Han while strolling in the Imperial Garden.
Remembering his promise to her, he walked toward Lin Han, who was sunbathing.
"Han'er, do you still remember the promise you made to me three months ago?" the emperor asked Lin Han affectionately.
"Your subject naturally remembers. I humbly request Your Majesty to give me a question to test my knowledge," Lin Han replied confidently.
The emperor then randomly asked Lin Han a few questions, expecting her to be unable to answer them. However, to everyone's surprise, Lin Han not only answered them correctly, but also gave perfect and clear answers.
The emperor listened with increasing satisfaction, and his gaze toward Lin Han became more and more gratified.
Only after Lin Han answered all the questions perfectly did the emperor praise him, saying, "Not bad, not bad. It seems you have made good progress in your studies over the past few months."
Lin Han showed no arrogance despite being praised by the emperor. Instead, she looked at him with composure and composure, her expression unchanged. Only when she saw how happy the emperor was did she reveal her agreement with Wei Yuchen.
“Father, actually, I promised Wei Yuchen at the beginning that as long as he taught me knowledge and I could win the agreement with you, I would plead with you to let him return to the country ahead of schedule.”
"Is this alright? He's really trying his best to teach me, and besides, he's really in a terrible situation. Letting him go back a few months early won't be a big deal, will it?"
Lin Han said everything in one breath, and then waited quietly for the emperor's reply.
The emperor agreed after only a moment's thought, but he added, "Han'er, you'd better go back and ask him for his opinion again. Ask him if he still wants to go back early. If he does, I will release him directly."
After the emperor finished speaking, he gave Lin Han a meaningful look and then left with a smile.
After Lin Han returned, he told Wei Yucheng that the emperor had agreed to let him return to the country ahead of schedule.
Wei Yucheng didn't seem particularly happy after hearing this, but instead asked Lin Han, "How will you live from now on?"
"What else can I do? As a princess, my marriage is definitely not up to me. I might be sent to a political marriage when I come of age." Lin Han looked up at the sky, her tone full of indifference to life.
"Forget it, there's no point in saying all this. We'll talk about it later. I'm going back now." Lin Han got up from the stone bench and walked into the house.
At that moment, Wei Yucheng called out to Lin Han from behind, "If I were to marry you, would you be willing to wait for me?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Han stopped in her tracks, but without turning around, she simply said softly, "Of course, if you are willing to marry me, I will definitely wait for you, even if it was just a casual remark."
As Wei Yuchen watched Lin Han's departing figure, he murmured softly, "My princess, you must wait for me."
He then resolutely turned around and went to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to request an audience with the Emperor.
As for what they talked about, Lin Han had no idea. All she knew was that Wei Yucheng never returned after that, and it was only many days later that Lin Han heard that Wei Yucheng had returned to Wei Kingdom.
"Sigh, it's gotten so quiet here again," Lin Han sighed, looking out the window with a sense of loneliness.
"It's okay, at least you still have me with you. And I have some good news for you: Wei Yuchen's corruption level is only 25 left." Xiao Meng comforted Lin Han as she listened to her sigh.
"This is indeed good news." Lin Han looked up at the sky, her eyes filled with complex emotions.
