Di Junlan had been assigned tasks for the past two days, and by the time he woke up, it was already dark.
"Your Majesty, you're awake."
Looking at Jin Shier, Emperor Junlan glanced around. Besides him, only the guards stood before him. "Am I asleep?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, the master has already ordered dinner to be prepared and sent Twelve to check if you have woken up."
Di Junlan sat there and asked, "When did you arrive?"
“Fourteen minutes ago.”
Looking at Jin Shier, was this person just going to wait here for him to wake up? Wasn't he going to report to Murong Jin?
After washing up in the room arranged for him at the Regent's Palace, Emperor Junlan came out dressed in purple, his hair tied up, and wearing a jade-green hair crown before heading to the hall.
As soon as I entered, I saw a person sitting in the courtyard, holding a cup of tea in his hand.
Every time we meet, he's holding a cup of tea; he's either serving tea or drinking it...
I've never seen him like drinking tea this much before.
Good evening, brother.
Upon hearing the voice, Murong Jin put down her teacup. "Awake?"
Turning around, I saw a person who had changed clothes; he was handsome and dressed neatly.
"Yes, brother, why didn't you call me?"
"I'm afraid you won't be able to fall back asleep if you wake up. Don't you have trouble sleeping?"
Upon hearing this, Di Junlan exclaimed, "Huh? How did you know, brother? I don't recall telling you."
Murong Jin's gaze fell on the sky: "That's what An Kesen said."
Upon hearing this, Di Junlan thought it was nothing, assuming that his brother had investigated him specifically to find out.
He didn't see that annoying woman on his way from the study.
"By the way, brother, where is your sworn sister? Isn't she here today?" It's good that she's not here, so he'll be the only one having dinner with his brother, and he won't have to see that woman Ling Qiao'er.
Murong Jin hummed in agreement, "Something came up at the shop, she won't be back tonight."
"I see."
That's great. I hope there's something going on at the shop every day, ideally so that Ling Qiao'er never has time to see her brother.
The two sat there, and Di Junlan glanced at the teapot. "I remember that brother didn't drink tea before, so why does he drink it every day now?"
"You've come to like tea?"
Murong Jin paused, looking at the man beside her. He had delicate features and looked young, like a young man. Di Junlan was only twenty-one years old, while she was twenty-six.
An extraordinary young man.
"Because I used to drink alcohol, but now that I'm banned from drinking, I'm using tea instead."
Di Junlan's expression changed; the reason he was forbidden from drinking was most likely due to health reasons.
"Drinking too much tea isn't good for your health. Brother, you should drink fruit juice from now on."
Murong Jin: "It's inconvenient."
"I'll have someone prepare it for you." As for juice, let An Kesen go find Ling Qiao'er.
He also heard about the origins of the milk tea shop, Ling Qiao'er's idea, that her brother would provide the money, and that all the profits would go to her brother...
milk tea.
Do you put milk in your tea?
Something that sounds strange but arouses curiosity.
Murong Jin didn't take his words to heart. "Are you hungry? Let's go have a meal."
"good."
At first, the confrontation was silent and fierce. Di Junlan never expected that one day he could make Murong Jin speak to him so calmly, especially with his cold yet gentle demeanor.
When we first met, my brother's face was cold, his eyes were sharp and serious, and he had a fierce look...
But now, that's not the case.
Especially since there's a smile playing on her lips...
Pushing Murong Jin towards the dining hall, she asked, "Brother, will you celebrate with me when I win first place?"
"Can."
Emperor Junlan smiled. If it's a celebration, he'll probably give a gift. He suddenly felt really looking forward to what gift his brother would give him.
Murong Jin smiled slightly. Giving him the Tiger Tally of the Three Armies should be considered a big surprise, right?
The first one was personally presented to him at the imperial court. The second one was sent out and then returned. This time, on the day the competition ended, with all the soldiers and generals present, she personally gave Emperor Junlan a tiger tally, a tiger tally carrying supreme glory, a tiger tally representing the recognition of the soldiers.
As for the last tiger tally, now is not the time to give it to him. At least, she should give it to him when she leaves the capital, so that he will never forget it for the rest of his life. It should be given to him in the spirit of loving the country and the people...
Imperial harem disputes have always been complex; with so many women, there are bound to be many problems…
Murong Jin chewed the meat, having already made up her mind that Emperor Junlan's harem could only contain a maximum of two women...
If there are too many, I'm afraid those people will eventually corrupt the wise ruler she painstakingly cultivated...
And the fact that Di Junlan is pestering her... this is not a good thing. How can she make him fall in love with a woman?
This is a problem that needs to be solved.
Di Junlan's body tensed up a bit, after all, he could feel Murong Jin's gaze fixed on him.
"Why are you looking at me, brother?"
"I'm wondering, we don't know each other well, is it a bit unreasonable for you to like me just because we met when we were little?"
Di Junlan never expected that Murong Jin was thinking about this question. He had never thought about it in depth. He liked Murong Jin because it was a natural thing.
"Your lingering thoughts about me from that time are your obsession and obsession. To be honest, you only like the person who lent you a helping hand because she brought you your first sense of being moved. You just want to live like her, not because you truly like her..."
Di Junlan's face was full of confusion and doubt.
