Chapter 393: Beat Him At His Own Game

No matter how impulsive the Empress was, she knew that going overboard was as bad as falling short. The number of posts she sent out was actually just right. However, before anyone knew it, more than twice the number of identical posts were sent to the various ministers’ residences. They were even stamped with the Empress’s private seal.

What they did not know was that from the moment they walked into this restaurant, their whereabouts had already been sent to the Emperor.

The Emperor was playing chess with Premier Shen. Halfway through, an eunuch came to whisper to Eunuch De. The Emperor asked Premier Shen, “Dear Official Shen, do you think I should let the Crown Prince take care of the

dam?”

Premier Shen played chess seriously. “I don’t dare to influence Your Majesty’s thoughts. I said that just now to anger Prime Minister Yan.

The Emperor laughed. “You’re quite honest.”

Premier Shen frowned. “Your Majesty, it’s not like you don’t know. With my level, I really can’t make up nonsense while playing chess. Instead of finding excuses but answering them wrongly, I might as well tell the truth.1

■Your Majesty, you deliberately interrupted, right? I was about to win just now!”

The Emperor was so angry that he laughed. ‘You? You’re about to win?” Pfft!

What a lousy chess player!

Premier Shen shook his head when he left, as if he felt sorry for the wrong move. The Emperor looked for Eunuch De. “How is it?”

Eunuch De bowed. “Your Majesty, Prime Minister Yan and the other Officials went to Fragrance Abode just now.”

The Emperor personally tidied up the chessboard and snorted.

“Half of the court is filled with members of the Yan Family now. As long as the

Yan Family has any instructions or requests, the scene will be quite magnificent. If the Imperial Examination is placed in the hands of the Crown Prince, will I, the Emperor, have to act according to their wishes in the future.” Eunuch De knelt on the ground. “Your Majesty, calm down. Take care of your dragon body!”

The Emperor waved his hand. “Do you think Premier Shen was telling the truth just now?”

Eunuch De looked up with a dumbfounded expression. “Huh?”

The Emperor rolled his eyes. “Get down, get down.”

Being the Emperor was really tiring and annoying.

“Wait, do you still have the melons that the Xiao Family’s girl sent back from the border city? Give one to me to extinguish the fire.”

Eunuch De was in a dilemma. “Your Majesty, you finished the last one yesterday.”

The Emperor glared at him. “Can’t you think of a way to find me another one?” Eunuch De thought for a long time and said, “I remember now. The elegant abode that County Magistrate Shen’s wife is preparing in the capital is going to open soon. I heard that watermelons will be served in the summer. And, there will be a mysterious new product.”

The Emperor was puzzled. “How do you even know this?

Eunuch De said awkwardly, “Official Shen gave me a VIP token and said that it would be 20% cheaper…”

The Emperor:…

Good lord, her business was extended into the palace! As expected of the daughter of the Li Family.

When Eunuch De was ordered to buy melons, the royal paddy fields of Xijiang County began to sway in the wind. When Ning Fengnian received the news that Xiaoxiao would be back in a day, he ran over happily to tell Madam Song, “Maybe Xiaoxiao can see her sister born!”

Madam Song spat at him. “You already know that it’s a daughter? What if it’s a son?”

Ning Fengnian’s expression changed. “No, no, no! It must be a daughter! The midwife said that the shape of your stomach is a daughter!

Be it the soldiers or the commoners who were farming, they could not help but laugh This couple was really interesting. Other families treated their sons like treasures, but their faces turned pale when they heard that they wanted to give birth to a son!

Ning Anhui, who had just come from the shop, casually scooped some water and washed his face. “Father, is what you said true? Is Sister coming back?” Ning Fengnian glared at him. “You can start preparing for the marriage now, right? You will only get married when your sister comes back, even I can’t convince you!”

Rong Yan was a prince, so it was not appropriate for him to stay in the border city all the time. Xiao Ran had just recovered from her old injuries and needed to recuperate. After the matter with Xiongnu was settled, the Emperor issued an edict for Rong Yan and Xiao Ran to return to the capital. The rest of the matters at the border were handed over to Deputy General Xiong and Deputy General Yu. The two of them were veterans who had led troops for many years, so they were more than enough to defend the city.

Rong Yan looked at the tall mountains and yellow soil behind him. His future was unknown when he came, and he was alone, but when he returned, he had Xiaoxiao and her family accompanying him. As they joked, he felt like his family of four was returning home.

His heart was very warm, and Xiaoxiao’s cooking was also very fragrant.

Gu Chang’an was still puzzled. “Although we’re already far away from the border, why would wild boars suddenly rush out at this time?

Xiaoxiao’s expression was dark and calm. “Perhaps it encountered some other ferocious beast and took the wrong path in a panic.”

Xiao Ran stuffed the roasted pork trotters into Gu Chang’an’s mouth. “So be it. Who cares where it came from? As long as it’s delicious! Why are you thinking so much?! Could it have fallen from the sky?”

Rong Yan used the leaves to hold the roasted meat to cover the smile on his lips. He glanced at Xiaoxiao and thought to himself that it was indeed from the sky.

Xiao Ran and Gu Chang’an were not such rigid people. The happiness of their children was more important than anything else. Rong Yan was a child they had watched grow up, so they were very at ease to let the two children be alone for a while.

The space that had been upgraded again could already provide 48 times the slow speed. Hence, in the “moment” that the two parents thought, the relationship between the two children quickly heated up, as if they had been together for several years.

Xiao Ran and Gu Chang’an were happy to see the two children like this, so they continued to give them a chance to be alone. Even if they said that they would not be able to see them after looking for ingredients for a while, they were not worried.

First of all, the two of them were very assured of Rong Yan’s character and propriety. Moreover, there were Great Xia’s soldiers around, and Rong Yan was already very skilled, so they did not have to worry about them encountering any danger.

However, the Yun Guards who were left behind were a little depressed. Did His Highness not want them anymore?

Yun Er and Yun San were very puzzled. In the past, Master paid the most attention to safety. Why was he blinded by love now? In order to be alone with Miss, he did not even bring his personal guards with him?

How could they know that they were not looking for ingredients as they had said? Instead, they came to the Xiongnu people through the space.

Xiaoxiao told Rong Yan that as long as they left an NPC as a road sign, they could come here from thousands of meters away at any time. He had experienced it himself today.

“Back then, this was how I traveled between Great Xia and Xiongnu Border City.”

After being more surprised, Rong Yan could already remain calm and listen to Xiaoxiao say this—at least on the surface.

Before returning to the capital, they decided to find something for the Xiongnu princes to do.

After the negotiations ended, Xiongnu withdrew its troops and annexed two cities. As the commander-in-chief of this war, Cheman should have gone back to reorganize the borders and dismiss the original residents of the city. It was probably an extremely cumbersome matter, but it was strange that he took the initiative to go to the Great Xia Imperial Capital with the soldiers of Great Xia and the envoys of Xiongnu to deliver the letter of surrender. The command of the general was completely handed over to First Prince Chercha.

Xiaoxiao guessed, “Maybe Chercha threatened him with the imprisonment thing.”

Rong Yan added, “Cheman doesn’t look like an honest person who will submit obediently. He might have other motives..”
