Chapter 414: The Perfect Solution, His Highness's Troublemaking

"Yes." Eunuch Li took the order and went to the East Palace to find the prince.

At this time, Xiao Jinyan was hurrying to Yu's study and met Eunuch Li on the way.

When Eunuch Li saw Xiao Jinyan, he hurried forward and urged: "Your Highness, the Emperor is waiting in the study."

"Yeah." Xiao Jinyan walked towards Yu's study with broad steps.

Just when the emperor was getting impatient, Xiao Jinyan stepped into Yu's study.

"Father."

When the emperor saw the prince coming, he asked, "Have you thought of a solution?"

Xiao Jinyan said, "Father, the autumn hunting will begin in a few days. You can take mother with you, and I will also take the Crown Princess."

Upon hearing this, the emperor immediately understood what the prince meant. Last autumn, when they went hunting, the empress would not live in the same tent with the crown princess, so of course she would live with him.

In addition, the queen herself was born into a family of military commanders and was good at riding and shooting. Going out hunting might improve her mood.

He should have thought of this earlier.

"This is a good idea, but it will take a few days."

Xiao Jinyan knew that he had to wait for a few days, and he wanted to pick her up right away, but his mother would not agree.

Preparations for the autumn hunting expedition had already been underway, with Xiao Jinyan in charge.

The emperor would also take time to go to the Fengyi Palace to have meals, visit the empress, and see his precious granddaughter.

The emperor hugged Taotao and then Susu, but he discovered a problem. He went to the empress and saw her sewing clothes with her head down and ignoring him.

"Queen, Susu seems to be heavier than her brother."

The queen paused, raised her head and looked at Susu in the dog emperor's arms, then glanced at Taotao. In comparison, Susu's little face was obviously rounder than her brother's.

"Maybe it's because Susu can eat more than her brother, so it's heavier."

From birth to now, Susu has been fed two more meals of milk than her brother every day...

The emperor said happily: "Being able to eat is a blessing, it is a good thing."

The queen nodded in agreement.

The emperor thought of the autumn hunting and decided it would be better for him to talk to the empress about it beforehand.

"Empress, the annual autumn hunting will begin in two days. I would like to take you with me. What do you think, Your Majesty?"

The Queen perked up instantly upon hearing this, but thinking of her current relationship with the dog emperor, she pretended to be indifferent and said, "Why did the Emperor suddenly think of sending me to the autumn hunting?"

The emperor sat down on the chair opposite the empress and let Susu sit on his lap. Susu grabbed the emperor's dragon pendant and played with it happily.

"The Queen has been in the palace for so many years and has rarely had the opportunity to go out. This is all my fault. I was not thoughtful enough. So I want to take this opportunity to take the Queen out hunting to relax. The Queen hasn't ridden for a long time."

The Queen was looking forward to it very much. She had always been good at riding and shooting, but she no longer had the opportunity to do so after becoming the Crown Princess.

On the surface, she was trying to make peace with herself: "Of course I will obey the emperor's orders."

The emperor was delighted to see that the empress had agreed, and said, "It's settled then. I have asked someone to make you a custom-made riding suit. You can try it on when the time comes."

When the Queen saw Shen Chuwei holding Taotao, she suddenly asked, "Where is the Crown Princess?"

The emperor paused when he heard this and felt a little dissatisfied. Why did the queen always focus on others?

The Crown Princess, the Crown Princess, of course the Crown Prince is with her.

"Don't worry, Crown Princess. The Crown Prince is taking care of her."

The queen nodded and lowered her head to continue sewing clothes.

Shen Chuwei had been to the Autumn Hunting before, but she couldn't go last year because she was pregnant, which made her regretful for a long time.

After hearing the conversation between the Emperor and the Empress, Xiao Jinyan would probably take her there, so she wouldn't have to worry about not being able to go.

I can roast all kinds of game again, hehe!

Xiao Jinyu chatted with the Queen Mother in Cining Palace for a while. When she stood up to leave, the Queen Mother said, "Wanxin, go and see Prince Yu off."

Wanxin took a few steps forward, wanting to see Xiao Jinyu off.

Xiao Jinyu looked at Wanxin and politely declined: "No need, you just stay and serve the Queen Mother."

Wan Xin said softly, "Lord Yu, I just escorted you to the door."

It's only a few dozen steps from here to the door, and we'll be there in no time.

Xiao Jinyu nodded when he thought of this.

Wan Xin smiled faintly: "Prince Yu, let's go."

"good."

Xiao Jinyu walked out first, and Wanxin followed behind.

Wan Xin raised her head and looked at Xiao Jinyu, smiled and said, "Prince Yu is very different from the prince I imagined."

It was the first time that Xiao Jinyu heard someone say this about him, and he couldn't help but feel curious: "Really? What's the difference?"

Wan Xin smiled and said, "Prince Yu doesn't have the airs of a prince, and it's easy for people to get close to him. Moreover, Prince Yu is very considerate and gentle, which are qualities that other princes don't have."

Xiao Jinyu was a little embarrassed when he heard this and said, "I didn't realize I have so many advantages."

"Prince Yu gives me the feeling that he is more like an older brother from my neighborhood." Wan Xin said, and then asked carefully, "Prince Yu will not be angry if I say so, right?"

Xiao Jinyu shook her head, "How could that be? That's just your feeling, not real."

Wan Xin: “…”

When they reached the door, Xiao Jinyu asked Wanxin to go back and left Cining Palace directly.

Wanxin stood at the porch, looked at Xiao Jinyu's leaving back, smiled, and turned to go in.

When the Queen Mother saw Wanxin coming back, she took her hand and asked, "What do you think of Prince Yu?"

Wan Xin smiled and said, "I think Prince Yu is a very good man. He is humble and has a good temper."

"Prince Yu is indeed not arrogant, and he has not yet married, not even a concubine." The Queen Mother said this, staring at Wan Xin, "How about betrothing you to Prince Yu?"

Wan Xin said shyly, "Your Majesty, I only have you as my relative in this world, so I have to obey you. But, does Prince Yu like me?"

"You are so gentle and considerate, which man would not like you? I just saw that Prince Yu still has some feelings for you, otherwise why would he be afraid that you would be punished and send you back personally?" The Queen Mother laughed as she spoke, feeling that she was very powerful and could see through Yu'er's thoughts at a glance.

Wan Xin said shyly, "Then I will listen to the Queen Mother."

The Queen Mother lived to such an old age that she could guess Wanxin's actions and knew that she was very willing.

"That's good, that's good."

Concubine Xu stayed cooped up in the East Palace for two days. Without Shen Chuwei and the babies, she felt like every day was a year.

Finally, he couldn't hold it in any longer and dragged Tao Liangyuan to Fengyi Palace.

"Isn't it inappropriate for us to go to Fengyi Palace so rashly?" Tao Liangyuan said with some concern.

"Why is it inappropriate? We haven't paid our respects to the Empress or the Crown Princess for such a long time. Of course, with our status, we should take the initiative to pay our respects." Concubine Xu said as a matter of course.

Tao Liangyuan was stunned when she heard this: "...It seems to make sense."

Concubine Xu said proudly: "Of course what I said makes sense."

The two of them arrived at Fengyi Palace and after being informed, they followed Eunuch De in.

When Shen Chuwei learned that Concubine Xu and Tao Liangyuan were coming, she went out to greet them holding Susu.

"Xu Cefei, Tao Liangyuan, you are here."

"Crown Princess, I'm almost suffocating. No, I'm almost dying of longing." Concubine Xu looked at Susu in Shen Chuwei's arms and reached out to hug her, "Susu, can you hug me, please?"

Susu was very considerate and reached out for a hug.

Concubine Xu happily hugged the boy and seeing the little guy laughing happily, she couldn't help but laugh along with him.

Tao Liangyuan held Susu's little hand, "Susu really becomes cuter the more I look at her."

Concubine Xu said proudly: "Of course, don't you see whose goddaughter she is?"

Tao Liangyuan suppressed her laughter and joked, "Susu looks like the Crown Princess."

"The Autumn Hunting will be here in a few days. Do you want to go together?" Shen Chuwei just felt that it would be boring for them to stay in the palace all the time. It would be better for them to go for the Autumn Hunting together and get some fresh air.

"Of course I want to go. I haven't been there yet." If Xu Cefei hadn't been holding Susu in her arms, she would have jumped up excitedly.

Then she discovered another important question, "Will His Highness take us there?"

"It feels so difficult." Tao Liangyuan actually wanted to go very much, but she was afraid that His Highness would not let them go.

Shen Chu was stunned for a moment, "I think so. He has taught Chang Liangyuan before."

The queen saw this scene from a distance. The three of them were talking and laughing. There was no pretense or hypocrisy in their smiles. They were very sincere.

These are rarely seen in the palace.

At the same time, he also envied them. When the Crown Prince favored the Crown Princess, Concubine Xu and Tao Liangyuan were still able to treat the Crown Princess sincerely, which was rare.

After Concubine Xu and Tao Liangyuan left, Shen Chuwei went to find Xiao Jinyan.

When she appeared in the study, Xiao Jinyan was a little surprised. Xiaojiu must have missed him so much that she came to see him specially.

Shen Chuwei came to the desk and glanced at the memorial in front of him, "Your Highness."

Xiao Jinyan raised his eyes and looked at her, "Xiaojiu, what are you doing?"

Shen Chuwei walked around the desk, took Xiao Jinyan's hand, and said coquettishly, "Your Highness, I have something to tell you."

Xiao Jinyan saw that she seemed to be hesitant to speak, and thought that she probably wanted him to pick her up.

"What's the matter? Tell me."

Shen Chuwei asked: "Your Highness, are we going to go hunting together in autumn?"

Xiao Jinyan was a little disappointed, but nodded anyway. He was not curious at all about how she knew, because his father would definitely go to find his mother, and Xiaojiu would naturally know it.

Shen Chu came over with a smile, "Then how about we take Concubine Xu and Tao Liangyuan with us? They haven't left the palace for a long time, and they are almost bored in the palace."

Xiao Jinyan snorted: "You always think of them when it comes to good things."

Shen Chuwei said: "It's mutual. They treat me well, and I won't forget them when something good happens, right?"

Xiao Jinyan nodded, "That makes sense. I can agree to your request."

Shen Chuwei was so happy that she held Xiao Jinyan's handsome face and kissed him.

Just as she was about to leave, a big hand grabbed the back of her head and then deepened the kiss.

Xiao Jinyan hadn't been intimate with Xiaojiu for a few days. How could she let go after he took the initiative to kiss her?

Shen Chuwei, who was in a daze due to Qin's manipulation, only realized after she regained consciousness that she was held in Xiao Jinyan's arms and was sitting on him.

Xiao Jinyan leaned close to her ear and said in a hoarse voice, "Xiao Jiu, you are such a bother."

Shen Chuwei's face flushed red, and she looked confused, "Why did I become such a troublemaker?"

Xiao Jinyan picked her up and walked straight to the bed behind him.
