Han Xiao believed that the emperor would not agree to either of these two methods.
Regardless of the fact that General Li is still alive, if Chu Jinglin did this, the ministers in the court would drown Chu Jinglin with a single spit.
So now Chu Jinglin is at a loss as to how to deal with the fourth princess.
Now the Fourth Princess has been temporarily imprisoned by the Emperor, which is also to protect him. Unlike the Second Prince, the Fifth Prince and the Fourth Princess still have some weight in the Emperor's heart.
Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for the emperor to agree to Chu Jinglin killing the fourth princess.
At this point, the marriage proposal proposed by Huyan Que was the most suitable one for the Fourth Princess.
Han Xiao also knew what Chu Jinglin was worried about, it was nothing more than his own reputation.
The new emperor Chu Jinglin had just ascended the throne. If he sent the fourth princess to marry so easily, it would inevitably discourage some veteran generals.
Especially General Li, this old general's military achievements were all won through his own hard work.
Even if his granddaughter did such a heinous thing, thanks to General Li's military achievements, Chu Jinglin really couldn't do anything to her. The final result would undoubtedly be to pick her up high and then put her down lightly.
"Alas, I know that too...it's just that this matter is not so easily resolved..." Chu Jinglin looked at Han Xiao and opened his mouth to express his concerns.
Han Xiao shook his head and raised his hand to stop Chu Jinglin from talking: "Third brother, you just need to agree to this matter, and I will take care of the rest."
With Chu Jinglin's current status, it is no longer suitable for him to do these things. Han Xiao can understand him on this point. It would be more reassuring for him to do it himself.
"What are you going to do?" Chu Jinglin asked curiously.
Han Xiao shook his head and smiled mysteriously: "It's actually very simple. All we need to do is for the Fourth Princess to take the initiative to marry, right?"
This not only preserved Chu Jinglin's reputation, but Han Xiao also achieved his goal. The border between Jiang State and Beidi could coexist peacefully, and it also gave Jiang State a chance to recuperate. It was simply killing two birds with one stone. Han Xiao didn't believe that Chu Jinglin couldn't think of it.
Sure enough, Chu Jinglin's expression changed after hearing this. He gently stroked the paperweight on his left with his fingers, and then gently put it down: "Since you said so... then I will believe you this time." Chu Jinglin put down the paperweight, stood up, stared at Han Xiao and said.
Han Xiao's mouth curled up, and his expression was not so serious. As expected, Chu Jinglin's reaction was within his expectations. Han Xiao couldn't help but stepped forward and put his arm around Chu Jinglin's shoulders and whispered, "Third brother, just wait for my good news."
Chu Jinglin's expression also relaxed. Han Xiao had solved his biggest worry. Chu Jinglin was in a much better mood at this time. He smiled and slapped Han Xiao's hand away and sat back in his chair: "Humph, if anything goes wrong, Ruanruan will stay in the palace from now on."
"Hey, hey, hey, don't, Third Brother, Ruanruan can't live without me." Han Xiao said quickly. Even though he knew Chu Jinglin was joking with him, Han Xiao's eyelids still twitched.
This is the problem he is most worried about. Now that the second prince has been dealt with, what if the old emperor and Chu Jinglin want to restore the young master's identity?
Han Xiao simply couldn't imagine what would happen after the young master left him. The thought of it was going to drive him crazy.
Seeing Han Xiao getting really nervous, Chu Jinglin said unhappily, "You never know. What if Ruanruan meets someone better? There are so many outstanding men in the capital."
Chu Jinglin was a little dissatisfied that the young master valued Han Xiao more than himself.
"It's useless to be nice to her. Ruanruan only likes me. Besides, we already have two children. Third brother, please stop trying to match us up..."
Han Xiao glanced at Chu Jinglin's expression after he finished speaking, and before he could say anything, he immediately continued, "Okay, Third Brother, I won't say any more to you. It's getting late, so I'll go pick Ruanruan up and take him home."
After saying that, Han Xiao stood up and ran out the door. Looking at Han Xiao's back, Chu Jinglin was speechless for a long time.
Han Xiao only breathed a sigh of relief when he completely walked out. He was really afraid that Chu Jinglin had detained the young master in the palace.
Han Xiao is now familiar with the terrain inside the palace. The palace maids and eunuchs also know Han Xiao. They know that Han Xiao is going to pick up the young master, so no one stops him.
Han Xiao walked unimpeded all the way to the outside of Fengyi Palace, and heard Chao Chao's giggling laughter and the young master's sweet and innocent voice: "Father, please be careful..."
Han Xiao raised his hand to signal Eunuch Dexi, who was guarding outside the door, not to report it, and then he quietly pushed the door open and walked in.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw the old emperor carrying little Chaochao and jogging in the yard, and the young master followed behind the old emperor with a worried look on his face.
He wanted to protect Xiao Chaochao with his hands.
Han Xiao stood there and called softly, "Ruanruan!"
When the young master heard Han Xiao's voice, he immediately ignored his son and father and ran towards Han Xiao. Han Xiao opened his arms to welcome the little cannonball named "Ruanruan".
Having not seen Han Xiao for the entire day, the young master missed him so much that he buried himself in Han Xiao's arms and said coquettishly, "Husband, why did you come just now? I've been waiting for you for a long time..."
As he spoke, he raised his head and looked at Han Xiao with his round eyes. Han Xiao was so cute that his heart was trembling. He secretly cursed Chu Jinglin again for being so useless and dragging him here to serve as a soldier.
It's one thing to be a soldier, but I don't even get paid, so I'm working for nothing. The most infuriating thing is that I have no choice but to work.
Holding the young master in his arms, Han Xiao took a deep breath to recharge himself before saying, "I've been busy lately, so I'll be able to spend some time with you in a couple of days."
Chaochao also heard her father's voice. She rode on the old emperor's neck, and began to grab the old emperor's hair with her little hands, shouting "Ah, ah, ah".
Then he pointed his little hand in Han Xiao's direction, meaning to go over there quickly.
The moment the old emperor saw Han Xiao come in, the smile on his face faded a lot, and his eyes were full of accusations against Han Xiao. Why did he come so early? Didn’t he see that he was still cultivating feelings with Ruanruan?
However, seeing how clingy the young master was to Han Xiao, the old emperor felt sad again. He wished that Ruanruan could be as clingy to him as before.
"Hiss~" The old emperor cried out in pain again. Seeing that his grandfather didn't move, Chao Chao increased the strength in his hands.
Hearing the old emperor's voice, the young master quickly turned around and wanted to pick up Xiao Chaochao. The old emperor had been playing with Xiao Chaochao all afternoon and he must be tired now.
The young master had no idea that Xiao Chaochao would actually attack his elderly grandfather.
The old emperor didn't bother with these details, and just smiled and dodged the hand that the young master extended: "It's okay, it's okay, I can just hold Chao Chao."
There is probably no hope of getting my son close to me, but I must cultivate a good relationship with my eldest grandson.
