Time travel! The little princess came down the mountain and made a scene in the palace

The next morning, Mo Yan changed into court robes and went to court. After the court was over, the eunuch blocked his way.

"Old slave, I pay my respects to the Second Prince."

"What's the matter."

"Your Majesty, I order you to go to the Imperial Garden to meet the ladies. You have not officially met the ladies in the palace since you came back."

"Lead the way."

Without thinking much, he followed his father-in-law to the Imperial Garden and heard the Emperor speaking from a distance.

"Is the Emperor here too?"

"The Emperor formally recommends you to all the concubines in the palace."

They came to the imperial garden. The emperor sat in the main seat, with several concubines on one side and three young and beautiful girls on the other side. Mo Yan thought they were all the emperor's concubines and didn't think much about it.

"Your Highness, I pay my respects to you, my father, and to all the ladies."

"Yan'er, you have been away from the palace for many years and you may not be familiar with the concubines in the palace. Today, your father will introduce them to you."

"My son, I obey."

"The eldest princess's mother, Concubine Xian. The fifth prince's mother, Concubine Li. Next to her is the sixth prince's mother, Concubine Jing."

"Your Highness, I pay my respects to you, my Lady."

Concubine Li looked Mo Yan up and down. He was tall and graceful, with an elegant figure, a handsome face, and sharp eyes, all of which showed his handsomeness and nobleness as a prince.

Although her son grew up in the palace, he did not have his free and easy temperament, which made Concubine Li annoyed.

Mo Yan noticed that Concubine Li was looking at him. He glanced at her and returned to his seat.

"The Second Prince is a handsome man, elegant and dignified. He is a role model among the princes and has the demeanor of the emperor in his past."

"Thank you for the compliment, Princess Jing."

When the emperor heard Concubine Jing praising him and his son, he laughed happily, and the entire imperial garden was filled with his cheerful laughter.

"Second Prince, let me introduce you. This is Ruan Yao, the legitimate daughter of the Left Prime Minister. This is Lin Qian, the legitimate daughter of the Minister of War. This is Wei Xinyue, the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Revenue."

"Your servant, I pay my respects to the Second Prince."

He nodded lightly and looked at Ruan Yao. It was she who was riding the carriage recklessly yesterday and almost hit the old man.

She may look okay, but she is vicious and cruel. Such a woman is scary to look at.

As soon as Ruan Yao recognized Mo Yan as the nobleman from yesterday when he came to the Imperial Garden, she didn't expect that he was the current second prince.

Dad told me that the emperor thought highly of the second prince, and that only the second prince in the court had the most ability and courage to become the future king of Zheng, and asked me to seize this opportunity and become his princess.

She would be able to reach her destiny overnight if she married him. At first she thought that a man who grew up in the mountains must be ugly, dark and thin, but she didn't expect him to be so handsome, which made her heart beat fast.

She was secretly glad that she entered the palace today, otherwise she would have missed the person she liked, and looked at Mo Yan shyly.

Noticing that Mo Yan was also looking at her, she became more confident that she could win the heart of the Second Prince and become his principal wife.

"Ladies, don't you have a show to perform? Now is a good time to start."

"My daughter obeys."

The father-in-law placed the zither in the middle. Ruan Yao, dressed in white sand, walked slowly towards them and gently stroked the strings. Her fingers danced lightly on the strings, as natural and smooth as flowing water in the mountains.

The sound of the piano echoed in the imperial garden, making people intoxicated. The sound of the piano was picturesque, and the woman playing the piano was even more poetic.

She has a graceful posture and a calm demeanor, as if she has become one with the piano; the sunlight shines on her like a beautiful painting.

Ruan Yao smiled at Mo Yan intentionally or unintentionally. Only then did Mo Yan realize that his father's arrangement was not to come to meet the ladies of the palace but to see the girl, which made him feel very uneasy.

After the song ended, Ruan Yao bowed to everyone and said, "I am honored to present my humble service."

The emperor took the lead in applauding and said loudly: "Good, Miss Ruan played very well."

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty."

"Yan'er, what do you think of Miss Ruan's playing?"

"Reporting to the emperor, I grew up listening to the sounds of animals, such as tigers and wolves. The sound of your piano is different from their sounds. I am more used to listening to the sounds of animals, so I cannot give an evaluation."

When the three girls heard the second prince say calmly that they grew up listening to the howling of tigers and wolves, they looked at him in panic.

If I lived in a place like that, would I be scared to death?

The emperor was very disappointed with his silly son. He looked at him and asked, "How can you be so honest? Can't you say something nice?"

Mo Yan did it on purpose, so that no girl would be interested in him and would not bring him into trouble. His junior sister will be coming of age in a year, and by then he will ask his father to send a letter to the emperor for marriage.

Ruan Yao looked at Mo Yan, then walked awkwardly to her seat and sat down.

It was the turn of Lin Xi, the daughter of the Minister of War, to perform her talent. She chose to sing at first, but the Second Prince grew up in the mountains and certainly couldn't tell the difference between good and bad, so she chose to dance again.

She was very confident in her dancing skills and believed that she could charm the second prince.

The musicians played music for her as she danced with light steps and graceful postures, fully displaying her feminine beauty and elegance.

The dancing girl is as poetic and picturesque as a colorful butterfly taking off. Her graceful figure turns around to the rhythm of the music, and the spinning curve is amazing.

Lin Xi was dancing hard on the stage, while Mo Yan was sitting below trying to find an excuse to leave.

After the dance ended, Lin Qian looked at everyone and bowed, "I am honored to present my humble service."

"Ms. Lin, your dancing skills are truly outstanding and your reputation is well-deserved."

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty."

"Yan'er, what do you think of Miss Lin's dancing skills?"

Lin Qian looked at Mo Yan expectantly.

"Father, I am not feeling well today. I may have just returned from Qiongzhou and have not had enough rest. Please allow me to go back and rest."

"Do you need to call the imperial physician?"

"I can treat the disease myself, so I won't bother the imperial physician."

"Father is too anxious. You haven't even had a good rest since you came back. Go back and rest now. We can talk about it later when there's a chance."

"Thank you, Father. I will take my leave now."

After Mo Yan finished speaking, he hurried out of the Imperial Garden. His steps were steady and quick, and he didn't look unwell at all. Instead, he looked like he was fleeing in a panic.

Lin Xi was standing in the middle and felt extremely embarrassed. Her dancing skills failed to charm the Second Prince but instead scared him away.

The emperor watched Mo Yan leave and said, "Princess Jing, please entertain all the young ladies. I am busy with state affairs and will leave first."

"I respectfully send you to your Majesty."

Several ladies also found excuses to leave, and several young ladies came with high hopes but left disappointed.

"Chen Ling, do you think I was too impatient and scared Yan'er?"

"Your Majesty, the Second Prince just returned and has not rested for a moment. It may not be suitable for him to be suddenly arranged for such an occasion. After all, he has never experienced such a thing before and does not know how to deal with it."

"I thought he was old enough to marry a wife, but I overlooked his previous upbringing. In the mountains, he had no contact with other girls except his teenage junior sister. He would definitely be at a loss when suddenly encountering such an occasion."

"I should give him some time to adapt."

"Your Majesty, wise."

"Old man, you only know how to be wise. Why didn't you think of these? Thousands of soldiers and horses didn't scare him, but a few girls scared him and made him flee. It's embarrassing for me. Are a few girls more terrifying than tigers and wolves?"

"It proves that our Second Prince is a man of noble character and not a lustful person like the sons of officials."

"He is a man of both civil and military talents, kind-hearted, open-minded and upright character. He is a role model for noble sons and has the demeanor of the emperor in his past."

The emperor laughed out loud.
