When Li Qingluo woke up, Duan Rongshi had already returned to Jinling.
Sha San came over and said that Zong Zheng Wuheng was clamoring to see the two of them.
Li Qingluo didn't want to deal with him anymore: "If you yell again, you won't have to bring him food."
Kill Three: "Yes."
After hesitating for a moment, Sha San said, "Girls, he said he wants to make a deal with you."
Li Qingluo: "It seems he is very anxious."
"In that case, let him be anxious for a while longer."
Once he can no longer sit still, he will naturally vomit more things.
After saying this, Li Qingluo did not stay any longer and returned to Jinling with Sha Shi and Sha Shiyi.
In the next few days, Duan Rongshi did not come to General Xiuli's Mansion again.
Li Qingluo suppressed all the invitations sent to General Xiuli's mansion and refused to return any of them.
Soon it was three days later, the day to go to the palace to express gratitude.
Li Qingluo followed Old Madam Pei to the palace gate early in the morning.
After the palace gates were opened, the court officials entered in order.
The grandfather and grandson waited until all the court officials had left one after another before they handed in their identities and entered the palace.
You can't walk around randomly either.
After entering, they waited obediently for the eunuch in charge to lead them to Ningshou Palace first.
The Queen Mother did not make things difficult for them.
He spoke to them in a very kind manner and gave Li Qingluo two pieces of jewelry.
"From now on, you will be my granddaughter-in-law."
"If you want to visit the palace more often, treat me as close as your grandmother. Would you mind meeting me, an old man who can barely walk, and telling me about interesting things happening outside the palace?"
Li Qingluo replied respectfully, "Yes, Queen Mother."
It was still early in the morning, and the empress dowager was afraid that they would not be able to bear the heat, so she asked them to go to the Zichen Palace early to wait for the meeting with Emperor Yan.
However, after waiting for two hours, the scorching sun was hanging overhead and people were dizzy. Only then did Wang Xiaocao, the apprentice of the late chief eunuch Wang He, and the eunuch Wang who had gone to General Xiuli's mansion to announce the decree last time, come out.
"General Pei, Princess Yaoguang, His Majesty is not feeling well today. He just said there's no need to go in to pay respects and express gratitude."
"So as not to pass on the disease to you two."
"Don't wait any longer today, let's go back."
Li Qingluo could no longer stand.
But she was more worried about her grandmother's health.
He suppressed his worries and forced himself to kowtow respectfully outside the hall with Old Madam Pei, and then the two of them supported each other and left the front of the Zichen Hall.
Wang Xiaocao waited until their figures disappeared before turning around and going back into the hall to report.
"Your Majesty, they are gone."
Emperor Yan snorted coldly: "I am annoyed when I think about this marriage that Xiaowu forced upon himself."
"She's a country girl who grew up in the mountains. What on earth could Xiaowu see in her?"
"Even though she does look quite attractive, there are countless women in Jinling City who are more beautiful than her."
"This woman must be quite cunning. That's why Xiao Wu fell into the trap of the grandfather and grandson!"
As Emperor Yan said this, his face had a somewhat gloomy expression.
He suddenly looked up at Wang Xiaocao and said, "Tell me, if this girl ruins her reputation herself, would Xiaowu still be willing?"
When Wang Xiaocao thought of Prince Su, he broke out in a cold sweat.
"Your Majesty, this woman's reputation...seems to have already been completely tainted."
"Back when they got that fake daughter of theirs... because she seduced His Royal Highness Prince Yun, the reputation of the General's Mansion in Dongyin Lane was completely ruined."
"Then those things happened in their family again."
"I heard that Master Li had some dirty deeds in that dilapidated temple. If you add up all these things, how could His Royal Highness Prince Su not know about it?"
Emperor Yan was so angry that he swept away the inkstone worth a thousand gold coins beside him.
His face darkened: "I used to be wary of him."
"I'm afraid he has something up his sleeve and wants to investigate what happened back then."
"So he used the excuse of not wanting to get married, and I just let him do it."
"Who would have thought he would find himself such a notorious princess!"
"Look, when I called him back that day, I was kind enough to give him a few concubines from high-class families, but judging by his expression, who was he trying to impress?"
"I must deal with him this time!"
"Let him know that I am the one who can dominate everything about him!"
Wang Xiaocao didn't dare to say anything and could only quickly pour some hot tea.
"Your Majesty, please calm down."
"Your Highness Prince Su will understand your painstaking efforts one day."
"Assigning him a few more close friends is for his own good, isn't it?"
"Your Highness Prince Su is stubborn. He hasn't tasted the sweetness yet. Once he gets a taste of those flavors one day, won't he want to try them all?"
When Emperor Yan heard Wang Xiaocao say this, he laughed for no reason.
"You bastard, do you know what sweetness tastes like?"
Wang Xiaocao bent down humbly and said, "I don't understand. But I can see clearly. Otherwise, why do all the men in the world like to have many wives and concubines?"
"It's because there's only one woman, and life is always dull and boring."
Emperor Yan narrowed his eyes.
"Wang Xiaocao, you are still not as good as your master. You talk too much."
Wang Xiaocao was so frightened that he trembled and his legs went weak and he knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I deserve to be beaten!"
Wang Xiaocao then remembered that Emperor Yan had favored Concubine Yue for several years.
Doesn't this imply that he is also a person who gets bored easily?
Wang Xiaocao felt that the head hanging on his neck was a little unstable.
