Chapter 173 Love Rivals Meet



The two sat together, close to each other.

Jun Zechen raised his eyes slightly, looked at Li Jin again, opened his thin lips and said, "Sit down."

"yes."

Li Jin bowed respectfully again before sitting down opposite the two of them.

Since His Majesty came, Miaoxia stood up and stood behind Su Jingyao, lowering her head slightly.

She carefully observed His Majesty's expression, feeling somewhat worried.

Your Majesty is not angry, right? Master and Your Majesty, please don’t quarrel over others anymore. She just wants to see them being sweet and happy!

At this time, the owner of the teahouse also noticed something and realized that the identities of this lady and her husband must be extraordinary.

only……

The Li family is powerful and deeply rooted in Yicheng. If you offend the Li family this time, I'm afraid nothing good will happen to you.

The shopkeeper in red had a frown on his face, a worried look on his face.

"Madam, why don't you leave first? Young Master Li was seriously injured just now. Perhaps the soldiers will be here soon."

Su Jingyao turned her head and looked at the shopkeeper in red with a comforting and fearless look, and smiled slightly.

"It's okay. If the soldiers come, we will go to the government office with them. The one who is wrong today is not you, nor is it me. It is the young master of the Li family who is bullying others by taking advantage of his power."

"The tea just now is finished, please bring some more tea."

The red-robed shopkeeper originally wanted to persuade them again. After all, she was afraid that they were outsiders and didn't know the tremendous power of the Li family in Yicheng. However, when she saw the silent but imposing man next to the beautiful lady, she swallowed the words back.

She sighed helplessly and told the tea girl to start serving tea to them.

Jun Zechen picked up the teacup that Su Jingyao had just drunk from and took a sip of tea. His movements seemed casual, but his eyes were sharp.

He looked nonchalant as he looked at Li Jin who was indifferent across from him.

"Li Jin, I heard that you and my wife have known each other since childhood?"

"Yes, thanks to Madam's rescue and care when I was a child, I am now Li Jin."

Li Jin's face was calm and his eyes were open.

"Did you often see each other when you were little?"

Jun Zechen remained calm, gently turning the teacup in his hand and continued to ask questions.

"Madam is a lady from a noble family. How can I meet her casually? We can only exchange letters." Li Jin looked calm and spoke in a gentle tone.

letter?

Jun Zechen frowned slightly and turned to look at Su Jingyao beside him with a questioning look in his eyes.

Su Jingyao looked innocent, blinking and looking back at him with clear eyes.

Li Jin managed her business and recruited people for her, so naturally there would be correspondence, which was all normal communication.

But Jun Zechen gritted his teeth, his heart filled with jealousy.

He had never seen her childhood appearance, but Li Jin not only saw it, but was also her capable helper. And don't think that Jun Zechen can't feel Li Jin's covetousness for her just because she pretends to be indifferent.

After she entered the harem, she tried every means to enter the imperial palace and become an imperial physician. Sima Zhao knew what she was thinking.

"My wife has been kind and generous since she was young. Please don't have any misunderstandings with me, young master. People must learn to know themselves."

Jun Zechen's eyes were full of warning.

Su Jingyao lowered her head slightly, frowning, wondering if Jun Zechen was too childish.

He is not sick, is he?

Then Su Jingyao reached out and pinched the flesh on Jun Zechen's waist, with a slightly dissatisfied look and anger in her eyes.

Jun Zechen had no reaction.

Li Jin naturally understood what His Majesty meant.

"Yes, Madam is the bright moon, and you are the blazing sun. You two are a perfect match."

There was a faint smile on Li Jin's lips.

During the Flower Festival of the year when she first married into the Eastern Palace, Li Jin understood her ambition. Power and status were what she longed for. She liked the emperor, not a certain person.

Doesn’t Your Majesty have the same unattainable desire as he does?

Now that she could see the almighty emperor competing with him for his favor, Li Jin also understood that she had gotten what she wanted.

When Jun Zechen heard Li Jin's answer, his expression eased slightly.

He held Su Jingyao's small hand that was pinching his waist in his own, and gently pinched the soft flesh on her waist.

What did she mean by pinching him? Could it be that she felt sorry for another man?

She came out to see Li Jin today, but he hasn't settled accounts with her yet!
