Emperor Qixuan was choked and kept coughing.

"emperor!"

As soon as Su Maowen heard the noise, he ran in and hurried over to help him calm down.

Emperor Qixuan's face turned red from coughing.

Noticing the suspicious look of a certain little guy, he put the teacup heavily on the table.

"Who made the tea? It's so hot!"

[So that's how it is. I thought it was just a seizure again. ]

Chu Yaoyao pursed her lips, climbed onto the chair with a grunt, picked up the teapot with both hands and poured half a cup of tea.

Then shake it and let it air dry.

After a while, a cup appeared in Emperor Qixuan's sight.

Looking at the little guy holding the teacup with difficulty, his heart warmed.

"Thank you, our little princess."

Chu Yaoyao waved her hand, "You're welcome!"

Her little face suddenly became serious because she thought of a very serious problem.

[If my mother and that man rekindle their old relationship, who should I be with? ]

"puff--"

“Cough cough cough…”

Emperor Qixuan was choked again.

"emperor!"

Su Maowen hurriedly poured another cup of tea, feeling puzzled.

What happened today? "Father, are you okay?"

As she spoke, Chu Yaoyao took small steps and moved a little further away.

[I can choke when drinking water. How unlucky is this? I'd better stay away from it. ]

Emperor Qixuan: ...

I drank a glass of water with great depression, and the itchiness in my throat was finally suppressed.

He looked at the little guy with a forced smile, stood up, took a step, and picked up Yaoyao with his big hands.

Humph, you want to hide?

That's impossible!

He held it in his arms and shook it, estimating its weight.

Well, it’s about the same as before leaving the palace. It seems that he didn’t eat any meat secretly.

Chu Yaoyao kicked her short legs in dissatisfaction.

But her strength was just a tickle to Emperor Qixuan, and he could suppress it with one hand.

"Come, tell Father, is there anything interesting that happened today?"

Hearing this, Chu Yaoyao laughed and stopped struggling.

"Today is fun!"

【That’s really interesting.】

Emperor Qixuan raised his eyebrows slightly. He wanted to ask some questions to find out who was so bold as to steal his girl.

I didn't expect that the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion was quite lively today? [By the way, Zhou Huaichen chased them out before, and I don't know how they are doing now. ]

Thinking of this, Chu Yaoyao smiled like an aunt.

Zhou Huaichen, that hypocritical guy, actually refused to admit it.

Unexpectedly, she also has the potential to be a matchmaker.

Emperor Qixuan looked at the little guy with a strange smile in confusion.

What’s the relationship with that kid from the Zhou family?

Outside the palace, Yan Mansion

As soon as she entered the yard, Yan Zhiying heard scolding and crying.

"Cry, cry, cry, all you do is cry. You've done something so shameless, how can you still cry?!"

Her father's angry voice reached her ears, and Yan Zhiying curled the corners of her mouth sarcastically.

My father is just the same as always. He only believes what he hears and sees, and never gives others a chance to explain.

The same thing happened to Liu's mother and daughter, and she just felt extremely happy!

Thinking of this, she simply stood outside Yan Zhihui's courtyard wall and continued listening.

In the room, Yan Zhihui wiped her tears and sobbed as she defended herself.

"Father, my daughter really didn't do those things!"

"Then tell me why you and Pei Hongshao appeared there together?!"

"I..." Yan Zhihui's eyes were a little vague.

It was she who bribed the servants in the Marquis' Mansion to help keep an eye on Master Zhou.

When she heard the servant say that Young Master Zhou was in the rockery, she rushed over with joy.

I didn't expect this to happen.

"Huier, tell me quickly, did someone frame you and deliberately lead you there? Was it that damned girl Yan Zhiying?"

Liu looked at her anxiously, wishing she could give her her brain and mouth.

Hearing this, Yan Ping glared at her, "Don't blame Zhiying for everything!"

Outside the courtyard, hearing their voices, Yan Zhiying sneered, then her face became solemn.

She was not surprised at all that Liu would say this, but her father...

Why would he defend himself in front of Liu's mother and daughter?

"Master, Hui'er is devoted to Master Zhou, how could she possibly like Pei Daizhao?"

"Mr. Zhou?!"

When this was mentioned, Yan Ping became furious.

He pushed Liu away and watched coldly as she fell to the ground and hit the stool.

"You still have the nerve to mention this?!"

"It was Zhiying who was originally engaged to the young master of the Zhou family. Now that something like this has happened again, do you think the Taifu Mansion will still look at you with respect? Will they let you marry in?!"

Yan Ping pointed at her nose and jumped up and down cursing.

"You're dreaming! It's wishful thinking!"

"From now on, you must stay in your own yard and not step out of the gate!"

After saying that, Yan Ping turned around and strode away.

Seeing this, Yan Zhihui felt a chill in her heart.

Is her father going to give up on her?

No, absolutely not! She rushed over, crying with tears in her eyes, "Father, please listen to my explanation!"

But she didn't even grab a piece of clothing.

Liu ran to her, covering her bruised and dazed head, and helped her up.

The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly.

Hearing the noise, Yan Zhiying, who was standing at the courtyard wall, was in a good mood.

"Sister, why are you here?"

Hearing the sound, Yan Ping, who had just walked out of the yard, looked over.

"Father." Yan Zhiying and her sister knelt down and saluted.

Yan Ping glanced in the direction of his eldest daughter's room, then turned back and looked at the two sisters.

"Why are you here?"

Seeing him so serious, Yan Zhiqian held her sister's hand tightly.

Yan Zhiying lowered her eyes, clenched her fists slightly, and silently comforted him, then explained softly: "Such a big thing happened at home, my daughter was worried, so she came back."

"You are thoughtful." Yan Ping nodded.

Then he looked at her disapprovingly, his tone accusing.

"But no matter how big the family affairs are, they are not bigger than the princess. You should spend more time with Her Royal Highness."

As he spoke, the confusion and suspicion in his eyes became even more intense.

I never expected that this cowardly second daughter would win the favor of the little princess.

Or was her original cowardice just an act? Upon hearing this, a hint of sarcasm flashed across Yan Zhiying's eyes.

No wonder her father protected her, it turned out that he saw greater benefits in her.

Although she had already seen clearly in her heart, she looked panic-stricken.

"I didn't think that much."

"Father is right. It is indeed my daughter who is not thoughtful enough."

Hearing that she was as cowardly and weak as usual, Yan Ping dispelled his doubts.

Maybe it's a coincidence.

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a little regretful.

It would be great if Huier was favored by the princess.

What Liu said was right. Even if they were siblings, they were not born from the same womb, so there would be some gap between them.

Thinking of this, Yan Ping's eyes flickered slightly.

"The princess is about the same age as Yu'er. When the princess summons you in the future, take him with you. People of the same age will be more likely to play together."

So this is the idea! The little dandy who was spoiled by Liu and became lawless, and who was only eight years old and was thinking about marrying a wife and taking concubines?

Such a person is not worthy to appear in front of the princess! Soon, she calmed down and when she raised her head, her eyes were full of admiration.

"My daughter has made a note of it."

Seeing this, Yan Ping nodded with satisfaction and rarely smiled at the sisters.

Looking at his back, Zhiqian looked up at her sister.

"Sister, this is the first time that father has been kind to us since mother passed away."

Yan Zhiying touched her face and asked, "Is Xixi happy?"

The little girl frowned for a long time before slowly shaking her head.

"I don't like it. My father's eyes are full of calculations."

Zhixi's eyes became wet, and she cried, "Sister, is it wrong for me to say this? Am I very bad?"

Yan Zhiying wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"No, actually my sister doesn't like it either."

“Puff!”

Hearing this, Zhiqian burst into laughter.

…

Qionghua Palace

"You mean, your mother was very excited after seeing someone, and kept looking at the half wooden bracelet?"

Chu Yaoyao ate snacks and nodded, looking at him with a gloating look.

[Bad dad, you are in trouble, mother's old lover has appeared! ]
