The two had just put on their undergarments when the commotion outside was already approaching the door.
The man stared at the shadowy figures outside the door, his eyes shifting constantly.
The palace servants felt that the emperor's reaction was somewhat excessive.
Since His Highness the Crown Prince didn't neglect his duties and his affection for the Crown Princess deepened... it doesn't seem so hard to understand.
After half an incense stick's time, the two had finished getting ready and met the old emperor in front of the hall.
Time was too tight; her long hair was not completely dry, and she was only half-tied up in a bun. Dressed simply, she followed behind Li Yin.
The father and son had now completely fallen out. They went back and forth, neither giving an inch.
It was fortunate that Su Sixu was guarding outside; otherwise, judging from the occasional increase in volume and the few words they uttered, unofficial histories would have been circulating among the people.
He was having a great time, but acted as if nothing had happened.
Impatient with standing, she rested her head on the man's back, lowered her head, and slowly played with his fingers.
After a long argument, the two finally came to an end, but the matter was never resolved.
Before leaving, Li Yin turned to Li Shude and said, "The person I respect is the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, a man who upholds morality for the country and its people, not someone who covets my daughter-in-law, a ridiculous and absurd person!"
......
New Year's Eve
The emperor celebrated with the people. Ministers were granted permission to bring their families to the New Year's Eve banquet at the palace.
The women who were assigned to Youzhou left in glory, but returned looking disheveled and crying.
Since only a few people have been chosen, even if they are rejected, they are already labeled as potential heirs.
When choosing a wife for a son of noble birth of marriageable age, the matriarch of the household would subconsciously avoid these families.
It happened to be a palace banquet.
The adults from those families were indeed getting anxious.
The girls sent to His Highness the Crown Prince were not just any lowly concubine's daughters; they were all legitimate daughters, beautiful and talented.
The situation is awkward now, so I have to go to the palace to ask for a word, or for the emperor to grant me permission to marry normally.
Of course, if possible, it would be best if His Highness the Crown Prince took a liking to me and took me away. Also, everyone is here today.
The King of Qin and the King of Qi are not yet married. Even if they cannot be with the Crown Prince, they can still be the Queen Consort of Qin or the Queen Consort of Qi!
As soon as Li Jie arrived, the noise made his head buzz.
These young ladies always have so much to say, it's so annoying! Huan'er is so much better, she never even acknowledges me when we meet, let alone argues with me.
He was impatient with the high-ranking officials in the court, exchanging toasts and flattering each other. He sat in his seat, drinking one cup of wine after another, and obediently did not go anywhere.
In a daze, a faint fragrance wafted by.
His hand holding the wine glass paused for a moment.
Immediately, he stood up, turned around, and looked into the depths of that quiet yet imposing artificial mountain.
But he only caught a fleeting glimpse of her back.
That fleeting thought was probably, "How come Huan'er has gained so much weight in just a few days? Even her back view isn't as graceful as before."
However, it's rare to see her alone.
Even if it's just to catch up with her and have a few words with her alone, that would be good.
Tonight's banquet should have been a lively and festive affair in the palace, but somehow the journey has become increasingly dark.
However, Li Jie had no time to worry about those things now, as his mind was focused on the person in front of him.
Seeing her turn several times and enter an empty palace, he hurriedly followed her!
Just as I stepped inside... a dark shadow flashed past behind me!
Then there was a "bang".
He fell straight down, and in the last few seconds before he completely lost consciousness, all he saw was a pair of red embroidered shoes.
