The next day, the morning court ended quickly because the emperor had to rush to Ning'an Palace to meet Gu Ling'er.
Jiang Yueyang thought she could leave the palace early and spend some time alone with Lu Yunting, but unexpectedly, Emperor Yuan took her with him before leaving.
Then, she and Emperor Yuan's three legitimate children were sitting in the outer hall waiting, while Gu Ling'er was treating the Empress in the inner hall.
Moreover, there are two puppets in the hall, one male and one female.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should have seen the puppet yesterday, but he didn't pay much attention to it at this time.
However, Her Royal Highness the Princess was very curious and looked the puppet up and down, touching it carefully.
"Third brother, didn't you say that puppets can dance? Let them dance for me."
The third prince glanced towards the inner hall and felt that the fight inside would not end soon, so he stood up and walked over.
"Watch it."
The third prince operated on the grid according to his memory and finally wound up the two puppets.
Afterwards, the two puppets began to dance under the gaze of several people. The dance was the same one that Lin Yan had demonstrated yesterday.
"Wow~" The eldest princess opened her mouth in surprise, "You can really dance? I thought you were just kidding, third brother."
The Third Prince: “…”
"Hmm...I also want a dancing puppet."
"No more. Jiang Yueyang alone bought nine yesterday. My fifth brother and I bought a few more. When father found out, he bought the rest."
After hearing what the Third Prince said, Jiang Yueyang's first reaction was that the cheapest puppet was three hundred taels each, where did His Majesty get so much money?
Coincidentally, the eldest princess thought so too. Then, Jiang Yueyang heard such a sentence.
"Is the Emperor begging for money from the Empress again?"
The Third Prince coughed awkwardly, "Don't ask me, I know everything."
Jiang Yueyang was sobbing in her heart, "Little melon, how did His Majesty act like a spoiled child with the Queen? Describe it to me."
The three siblings immediately pricked up their ears and listened without leaving any trace.
Before the system answered, Jiang Yueyang continued: [Is it that he is nestling in the Queen's arms like a little bird, calling her "Qingqing" in a sticky voice, or is he holding the Queen's arm and shaking like a three-year-old child, or is he showing off his entire abdominal muscles to seduce her? ]
Three siblings: ...You can really imagine.
The system laughed evilly, [Neither, the Emperor did not act coquettishly with the Empress this time.]
[Then how did Your Majesty have the money to buy a puppet? 】
Hearing that evil laugh, Jiang Yueyang would not think that nothing happened.
As expected!
The system added with a sly smile, [He is acting like a spoiled child with your father.]
Jiang Yueyang: [……]
The three siblings first opened their eyes wide in shock, then lowered their heads and tried hard to hold back their laughter.
The scene of the emperor and Minister Jiang acting like a spoiled child...
Ouch~~ (covering face) It’s too painful to watch!
Jiang Yueyang also imagined the scene briefly, then pursed her lips and tried to hold back a smile, [Your Majesty just acted like a spoiled child, and my father gave me money? ]
[How is that possible! Your father is a very principled person in charge of the national treasury. How can the emperor just act like a spoiled child and get money? The emperor had to spend a lot of time and effort to convince your father to give him the money.]
The people who were shocked by the system's words did not notice that the emperor, empress and Gu Ling'er had already come out of the inner hall. Fortunately, they heard the last sentence of the system.
Emperor Yuan looked so embarrassed that he wished he could dig a hole and jump into it.
The Queen's mouth twitched uncontrollably, and His Majesty lost all face again.
Gu Ling'er didn't react at first. After she reacted, she held back her laughter and glanced at Emperor Yuan with a strange look.
Her mind was filled with her own imaginations of Emperor Yuan and Minister Jiang acting like spoiled brats.
Yesterday, Gu Linger had already moved into the Jiang family, and naturally she also met Minister Jiang and Madam Jiang.
At this time, the prince was the first to see them, and he stood up and called softly, "Father, Queen Mother."
Hearing this, the Third Prince and the Eldest Princess immediately stopped smiling, and Jiang Yueyang stood up as if nothing had happened.
After Guling'er laughed enough, she patted her numb cheeks and raised her eyes.
Unexpectedly, the next second, she screamed.
"Then...how come the puppet moves!?"
She had seen the puppet placed in the hall when she came in earlier, but the puppet didn't move at the time, so she thought it was just a decoration.
Seeing her big reaction, Emperor Yuan was confused and said with a smile, "That puppet was made by one of my ministers. It uses some mechanical technology, so it can move."
He secretly thought that Gu Ling'er had previously expressed her agreement to take care of the Queen at Jiang Yueyang's request, but at the same time she also said that she would not stay in the capital for long.
If she is to be able to take care of the Queen until the child is born safely, she must be left in the capital.
She is so interested in puppets, maybe...
Gu Linger asked excitedly: "Are they dancing?"
Emperor Yuan responded, "Not only can they dance, they can also fight. They can also do simple tasks such as serving tea and cleaning."
Jiang Yueyang seemed to be thinking about something. His Majesty had already learned a lot about Lin Yan's puppets.
It seems that the Third Prince didn't spend the whole day yesterday in vain! I thought he was just playing around!
"Is it so powerful?" Gu Ling'er walked towards the puppet in surprise.
Because the puppet was still dancing, she didn't get too close. She didn't get close to it until the puppet finished dancing, then she looked at it carefully.
"These two puppets are so exquisitely made." Gu Ling'er stroked the puppets from a distance, "Your Majesty, can Ling'er meet the master who made the puppets?"
"Of course."
"Ling'er wants to see me now!"
"That……"
Emperor Yuan's gaze swept across his three children one by one, and finally locked onto His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
"Then let the prince take Miss Ling'er to meet him." Emperor Yuan felt that sending the prince could better demonstrate his importance.
Gu Linger smiled and nodded at the prince, "Then I'll have to trouble you, Your Highness."
"Miss Ling'er, please."
Then, the two of them walked out together. The eldest princess glanced at Emperor Yuan, and seeing that he didn't look at her, she followed him out stealthily.
After the three of them left, Emperor Yuan looked at Jiang Yueyang and said, "If you can find a way to keep Miss Ling'er in the capital, I can fulfill one of your wishes."
Emperor Yuan thought about it and felt that using puppets alone would not be very effective in keeping Gu Ling'er, so it would be safer for Jiang Yueyang to come forward and persuade her.
Jiang Yueyang's eyes lit up when he heard Emperor Yuan's words, "Your Majesty, can you make any wish?"
When Emperor Yuan heard this, he subconsciously felt that Jiang Yueyang would allow him to satisfy the relationship between her and Lu Yunting.
After getting to know each other for a period of time, he was no longer so resistant to what was happening between Jiang Yueyang and the others.
But... the 300,000 Lu family soldiers still made him unable to feel completely at ease.
"I can allow you to get engaged first, but whether the marriage can be successful still depends on you."
The Third Prince opened his eyes wide in shock, and the Empress looked at Emperor Yuan in surprise.
Jiang Yueyang blinked, "???"
Ah!
What did he say?
engagement?
