Chapter 656 Marriage
Although Princess Longji only spoke briefly, the Queen Mother could also hear something from it. She had heard about the incident involving the princess of the Ella Empire.
After the Ella Empire's convoy entered, news came, along with the Ella Empire's official diplomatic documents, saying that the princess came to celebrate the birthday on behalf of the Ella Empire's emperor.
Originally, such birthday banquets were attended by representatives from various cities, who were said to represent the kings of their respective countries, and there were also princesses and princes present, but most of them were just formalities.
The Queen Mother felt that the Princess of the Ella Empire's visit was just a formality, but now it seems a little different.
If it was just a formality, Princess Longji would not be dispatched. The whole continent knows that although Princess Longji is a princess, she is a powerful figure with real power and is one of the strong heirs to the throne of the Suzaku Empire.
There seemed to be no need to ask her to welcome a passing princess, even though she was from the Ella Empire. Just as the Queen Mother said, there were other princesses in the palace, who were also princesses of the empire, and she would not be rude to others.
In fact, there is no need for the princess to go to greet the guests. Many officials go to greet them. They only ask the princess to go to greet them in order to imply their importance to the person. By the way, it can also strengthen the friendship between the princesses of the empire.
"It seems so. It's said that the Ella Empire's purpose this time is a little different. They say the princess inside is a little special, and they want us to treat her well. From what I heard, this princess is quite special, like an eight-year-old little princess... Also, the Ella Empire said that if possible, this princess wants to become our relative."
"Is she here for a marriage?" The Queen Mother asked with a hint of surprise. After she finished speaking, she shook her head and said, "Probably not. Even if we wanted to arrange a marriage sooner, this eight-year-old princess is too young..."
“It’s not impossible. After all, we are all from the imperial family…” Princess Longji looked a little helpless and smiled bitterly, but she soon returned to normal, as if the expression just now had never existed.
Princess Longji then smiled and said nonchalantly, "If the enemy comes, we will stop them with our troops. If the water comes, we will block it with earth. No matter what their purpose is, I will take it. I will meet them later and spy on them while I am here!"
"Well! I feel at ease if you go! Then I will go to your Jilangju first." The Empress Dowager nodded. Just as she said, among all the princes and princesses, she felt most at ease with Princess Longji.
Jilangju, anyone who knows can see where this name came from.
"No need. Their convoy will not arrive until the afternoon. I can't go there to wait for them. I will accompany my grandmother home..." Princess Longji took the Empress Dowager's arm, and then they went to Jilangju together.
…
"Meet my mother..."
At that time, Long Anqi and Ye Chengtian were drinking tea, chatting, and listening to some music. They looked very relaxed and comfortable. They didn't want to socialize with anyone so early in the morning.
However, the arrival of the Empress Dowager forced them to go and greet her.
"You are living a good life. This little girl has a good voice too." The Queen Mother nodded with a smile and looked at the girls who were playing and singing. Among them, the most eye-catching one was the girl who was leading the singing.
The girl who led the singing had such a pretty face that even she was astonished. Who was she? She was the empress dowager of the Suzaku Empire. She had seen more than a thousand beautiful girls, and even she was astonished by them. This showed that this girl was extraordinary.
"Thank you for the compliment, Her Majesty! You guys chat, we'll go down first." The girl said calmly, then bowed politely and left.
At this moment, she believed that it was very tactless for them to stay here! !
"Who are they? They don't seem to be from our empire?" The Queen Mother asked casually as she watched the girls leave. It didn't matter whether they knew the answer or not.
"They came with us and are Ye Lang's people." Ye Chengtian replied.
"??? Is it Ye Lang's people?" The Queen Mother was a little surprised. She didn't expect the answer to this mystery to be so explosive, but she seemed to have misunderstood.
"Well, they are that little bastard's people, but they are not the kind you think! They were originally from Fenghuaxueyue Tower, and later followed that little bastard to Yecheng. Now they help that little bastard Ye Lang run a teahouse." Long Anqi interrupted to explain.
"The teahouse in Yecheng? Could it be the teahouse in Yecheng that is famous but has no name?" asked the Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager had heard of this teahouse in Yecheng, but had never been there. But now, she had heard of it not only in Yecheng, but also because this teahouse was gradually becoming famous all over the world.
However, everyone knows that there is such a teahouse, but no one knows what it is called, because the teahouse itself has no name!
At that time, Ye Lang only started the teahouse, but did not choose a name. He also thought that the name was not important and just called it a teahouse. As a result, the teahouse had no name.
"Yes!" Long Anqi nodded. "That little bastard is so confused that he can't even think of a name. He doesn't even dare to come up with one. Even now, it's still called the Teahouse. When people in Yecheng talk about teahouses, everyone knows they're referring to his."
"I don't think he is confused, otherwise why would he refuse to acknowledge me as his grandmother..." The Queen Mother said helplessly.
“…”
Long Anqi remained silent. It was hard for her to explain this matter. She didn't know whether Ye Lang was simply stupid or was thinking about herself. Of course, she felt that the latter was much more likely.
As a mother, she naturally wants her son to care about her and consider everything for her!!
"By the way, where is he now? Have you received any news?" asked the Queen Mother. She wanted to know this question, and she wanted to know it a little urgently.
"No, he doesn't know where to go. He might have lost his way somewhere again." Long Anqi shook her head, a little helpless, with a beautiful smile on her lips.
"Then can he come? I'm waiting for him to come and celebrate my birthday." The Queen Mother asked. Looking at Long Anqi's smile, she actually understood the answer to this mystery. It must not matter. As long as Ye Lang is happy, Long Anqi will not care whether Ye Lang gets lost or comes.
This is what a mother is like. Under certain conditions, she can tolerate and indulge...
"I don't know about that. Theoretically, this little bastard will come. He has never broken his promise..." said Long Anqi.
"That's good, as long as you can come!" The Queen Mother nodded. She didn't seem to notice that Long Anqi had not finished speaking and there were other things to say.
