Shen Xiaoxiao's head was full of black lines. She didn't want to respond to this question, but she had to respond, "Your Majesty...it's better not to mention such an embarrassing thing."
"Hahaha..." The emperor laughed immorally, glanced at Jiang Yuanlang who was staring at Shen Xiaoxiao, and pretended to ask, "Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. But, are you sure you want to be in the same group with Jiang San?"
Jiang Yuanlang didn't look very good, and the emperor wondered why Shen Xiaoxiao still liked him?
If she likes me, it's not impossible...
Just as the emperor was narcissistically thinking about it, Shen Xiaoxiao said without hesitation, “Because he didn’t want to win, and coincidentally, neither did I.
The common people came to Beijing for two reasons: one was to visit her sister, and the other was to experience the customs and culture of the capital.
It doesn’t matter whether you can hunt prey on this trip. The most important thing is to learn more about wild fruit plants.
That way, even if you become greedy in the future, you won’t end up eating too much and end up hurting yourself.”
As he spoke, he made fun of himself without hesitation. His language was humorous, generous and cute, which made everyone laugh and made the emperor feel even more regretful.
I really hope to take this little girl into my harem.
Of course, they also hope to collect money from the Shen family.
The Shen family is rich enough to rival a country, and the dowry that Shen Huijun brought with her when she married Yan Xi was really a lot!
Unfortunately, Shen Xiaoxiao insisted on being in the same group with Jiang Yuanlang, and he had no choice. Besides, he couldn't just coax Concubine Qiao and then go get involved with other women.
After all, the emperor is not so crazy as to be shameless.
She only asked Shen Huijun, “Aunt Huang, Miss Shen is going to end up like this, you don’t object, right?”
Shen Huijun wanted to object, because this was her own sister whom she raised as her own daughter. Even though she came from a merchant family, she had always paid special attention to etiquette since she was young.
But she also knew Shen Xiaoxiao's temper, she was very stubborn.
Just like her family didn't agree with her coming to Beijing at first, but she still came in the end, didn't she?
Her legs are so long that you can’t stop them!
"Your Majesty has no objection. I just ask Mr. Jiang San to take care of my sister as much as possible when the time comes." With a sigh, Shen Huijun had no choice but to agree.
She comforted herself by saying that it was fortunately Jiang San and not someone else. At least because of Jiang Ying, she still had more faith in the character of the Jiang family.
Jiang Yuanlang agreed without hesitation.
The main thing is that he knows too well why Shen Xiaoxiao wants to experience the customs and practices of the capital!
They are very observant and are here to develop their business!
I had come to him not long ago and wanted the formula of the ready-made medicine that my sister had, because their Shen family was planning to expand their business in medicinal materials.
Jiang Yuanlang hasn't asked Jiang Ying yet, so he doesn't know whether she will agree.
However, he also has some ideas...
Didn't Shen Xiaoxiao want to talk to him during this opportunity? Then talk, talk well!
With the first two couples, Jiang Yuanyi & Lu Yanran, and Jiang Yuanlang & Chen Xiaoxiao, more and more ladies volunteered to participate in the hunt. Most of them were engaged or had engagement intentions, and they tacitly allowed the young people to cultivate their feelings together.
Yan Shan also successfully obtained the consent of the Mu family.
But no one knew what Mu Wanbai was thinking. Perhaps she wanted to teach Mu Zijin a lesson during the hunt, so she actually dragged her along!
"Dad, my sisters and I will be in a group with Second Young Master Yan, so we can keep each other company."
Mu Yunyuan hadn't expected his daughter to suddenly do this. He was a little confused. "This... Your Majesty, is this possible?"
After all, those in front were just one man and one woman, not multiple men and multiple women.
The emperor smiled, a bit like he was enjoying the show, "Well, it works. My kind cousin has indeed inherited the unparalleled bravery of the emperor's uncle, and he has made the two young ladies of the Mu family bow down to him."
"Your Majesty, I do not wish to be with Second Young Master Yan. It is my eldest sister who insists on having her own way and is forcing us to do so!"
Seeing that he was in a difficult situation, Mu Zijin did not show any weakness anymore. He looked at Jiang Yuanchen, knelt down and kowtowed.
The emperor was stunned and asked Mu Yunyuan, "Lord Mu, what's going on?"
Mu Yunyuan was furious, but he tried to smooth things over, "...Your Majesty, it's my fault. Perhaps my sister got angry, and I failed to teach my daughter well, and I have offended Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty, I am the daughter of my aunt, and I am not loved by you, father. However, I also have my own emotions and desires. My elder sister just made such a request, completely disregarding my wishes. Even if I die today, I will not comply!"
That man with cunning words and shifty eyes has ulterior motives, as you can tell from the first glance.
Who knows if he will do anything inappropriate once he enters the woods?
No matter she is a victim or a witness, she will end up in trouble!
She won't go!
In fact, Mu Zijin has never been stupid, but he was used to being oppressed in the past and didn't know how to resist. Now, for the hope in his heart, he can finally give it a try!
Mu Wanbai was so angry that her face turned pale when she heard this. She clenched her hands tightly together, but she didn't dare to argue in front of the emperor.
In fact, she also had the idea of letting Mu Zijin be a scapegoat.
Mu Yunyuan shouted, "Rebellious girl, what are you doing? Hurry up and stop making trouble in front of the Emperor!"
"I'm not messing around. If Dad doesn't refute my eldest sister in person, I'll kneel right here!"
Mu Yunyuan's lips trembled with anger. He certainly didn't particularly care about Mu Zijin, a concubine's daughter; he simply didn't want to lose face in front of the emperor. He hurriedly bent down and said, "Your Majesty, I'm not good at raising my daughter. However, my second daughter is indeed already engaged, so it's inconvenient for her to have any contact with men outside of her family. As for my eldest daughter, she was afraid to be alone, so she forgot the etiquette."
After saying that, he glared at Mu Wanbai and told her not to be willful, as this was in front of the emperor!
Mu Wanbai had no choice but to endure it and not mention it again.
But she was also happy in her heart, because Mu Yunyuan had just mentioned that Mu Zijin was promised to someone else.
Who could she promise it to in such a short time?
It’s the same Guo family from before!
The old man of the Guo family is over 40 years old this year. He has dozens of concubines. After his wife died, he found Mu Zijin to be his concubine.
As the chief academic officer of the Imperial College, Mu Yunyuan naturally looked down upon such a bad relative.
However, the Guo family's betrothal gift was very generous, 360 dan of betrothal gifts, one of which was full of gold. Even a noble family that paid attention to the matching of social status still had to eat, not to mention that Mr. Mu was always in public.
As a son, Mu Yunyuan did not dare to let his father lower his quality of life.
So after Madam Mu arranged this marriage, Mu Yunyuan disagreed on the surface, but he had already agreed in his heart. He just didn't want to be the bad guy.
As the saying goes, you have to be a whore and also be a virtuous person.
He wants it all, and his eating habits are really ugly.
Why would the emperor care who the minister's concubine's daughter married? His face darkened for a moment after hearing this, and he waved his hand and put it aside.
But at this moment, Jiang Yuanchen stepped forward and knelt firmly beside Mu Zijin...
