Facing her complicated and uneasy eyes, Meng Jinyou responded sincerely, "I'm happy to do so."

"really?"

"Seriously!" Meng Jinyou held her hand in his own and held it tightly.

"No one knows better than me the consequences of a disturbed family. I long for the close relationship between the prince and Shang'er."

Wen Linglong felt warm in her heart. How could she not long for the same kind of relationship as that between Prince Heng and his wife?

There are no messy people, just each other.

only……

"I am nothing now. Will your parents despise me?"

"My mother likes you very much and has long wanted me to marry you. Shang'er also admires you very much. With their support behind me, everything will not be a problem."

Wen Linglong finally felt relieved.

She bowed towards Emperor Yuan Qing and said, "Your Majesty, Linglong also likes Meng Jinyou. Please help us."

Emperor Yuan Qing, who watched the whole process, said: "..."

Haha, I finally remembered him.

Was he just part of their mutual confession?

"Your Majesty!" Meng Jinyou anxiously urged Emperor Yuan Qing to express his opinion.

Emperor Yuan Qing glanced at him unhappily and asked, "Why are you rushing me?"

You all are in pairs, but I'm still alone. Can't you understand how I feel?

"I have been teaching Huai'an how to paint landscapes recently, and Huai'an likes it very much. If Your Majesty does not mind, I would like to bring Huai'an to the palace to paint the scenery of the imperial garden?"

Emperor Yuan Qing was delighted.

With Meng Jinyou coming forward, Meng Yunshang would definitely not stop Huai'an from entering the palace.

Then he will be able to invite Huai'an to have lunch in the palace.

By the way, tell Huai'an that his good uncle betrayed him to benefit himself.

Hey, that's a great idea.

Emperor Yuan Qing was in a good mood and glanced at Meng Jinyou with satisfaction.

But when he looked at Wen Linglong, his expression changed instantly.

"Wen Linglong, have you thought it through?"

Wen Linglong nodded, "I've made up my mind. I beg the emperor to grant my wish."

"Alas," Emperor Yuan Qing sighed softly.

"Although Meng Jinyou seems to be a good match, he has always been a nitpicker. Even though he agrees now, who knows what will happen after marriage? Why don't you think about it again?"

Meng Jinyou: “???”

He is the emperor after all, but he is destroying the bridge after crossing it?

Oh, he can do that too.

"I suddenly feel that the weather has been bad these past two days. I'm afraid it's not suitable for painting in the Imperial Garden."

Emperor Yuan Qing stopped laughing for a moment.

Although Wen Linglong was not as smart as Meng Jinyou, she could vaguely see the contest between him and Emperor Yuan Qing.

So, she quietly picked a suitable time to speak again, "Linglong has made up her mind. She will not marry anyone other than Meng Jinyou in this life. Please grant my wish, Your Majesty."

"Oh, you are such a blockhead."

Meng Jinyou's forehead was beating with joy.

Fortunately, Emperor Yuan Qing did not say anything more, but said to Wen Linglong graciously, "Since Princess Heng thinks so highly of you, I should also show my appreciation. How about giving you the title of Princess?"

"Thank you for your grace, but Linglong has been expelled from the Wen family and is not suitable to receive the reward."

Emperor Yuan Qing frowned in surprise and said, "You better think it through. If you miss this opportunity, you will never get it again. My reward is not always available."

"Linglong has thought it through very clearly," she wished she could immediately draw a line between herself and the Wen family, so that they wouldn't use their blood relationship to exploit her.

Don't reward her, it will only benefit her.

Emperor Yuan Qing looked at Meng Jinyou.

Meng Jinyou cupped his hands, "I respect Linglong's choice."

"In the future, I will do my best to serve the emperor and strive to win an imperial decree for Linglong as soon as possible."

She was awarded the title of princess before her marriage, which was an honor for a girl of the Wen family. The Wen family could use this as an excuse to accuse her of being ungrateful at any time.

But she was granted an imperial decree after marriage, which was an honor that only women from the Meng family could enjoy, and no one in the Wen family could take it away.

Wen Linglong gave Meng Jinyou a grateful smile. He really understood her.

Emperor Yuan Qing understood a deeper meaning than Wen Linglong.

How shameless! He hasn't even married the girl yet, but he's already hinting that he wants an imperial decree.

He waved his hands at Meng Jinyou in annoyance, "Get lost, you are disturbing my eyes."

Meng Jinyou calmed down and shamelessly pleaded with Emperor Yuan Qing, "How about the Emperor issue an imperial decree to grant us marriage now?"

Emperor Yuan Qing was so angry that he laughed, pointed at the door and sneered, "Get out of here before I regret it!"

"Your Majesty..." Meng Jinyou spoke again.

Wen Linglong didn't know how Meng Jinyou usually got along with Emperor Yuan Qing, and was worried that if he continued talking, he would annoy Emperor Yuan Qing, so she quickly pulled him back.

"Let's go out first and not disturb the emperor's rest."

Emperor Yuan Qing looked at Meng Jinyou and snorted, "See? My cousin is much more sensible than you."

"Yes, Your Majesty is right."

The goal was achieved, and Meng Jinyou ignored Emperor Yuan Qing's teasing and left openly taking Wen Linglong's hand.

Emperor Yuan Qing looked at their backs and asked Xiao Jingzi quietly, "Do you think it's time for me to find someone I like?"

Everyone is in pairs, but he is the only one who doesn't have a caring one.

Xiao Jingzi responded with a smile, "When she learned that the emperor was leaving the palace today, the virtuous concubine reminded me again and again to remember to bring a hot water bottle and a cloak for the emperor."

When Emperor Yuan Qing heard this, he felt at ease instantly, "Yes, I still have her."

Meng Yunshang and Lu Chenxiao were enjoying the flowers in the plum forest, but they knew the situation in the warm room very well.

Emperor Yuan Qing even sent secret guards to tell them that Meng Jinyou and Wen Linglong had confirmed their feelings for each other, so they could rest assured and not do anything to cheat others.

The secret guard was an honest man, and he imitated Emperor Yuan Qing's resentful tone perfectly.

Meng Yunshang couldn't help but burst out laughing after hearing this.

Lu Chenxiao waved away the secret guards, put his arm around her waist and hummed, "Is it so funny? Shang'er seems to really like listening to my brother talk?"

Meng Yunshang knew his character well.

She stretched out her hand and twisted his waist, "I don't like to listen to the emperor talking, I just sympathize with him being tormented by you to the point of being speechless."

"It's not common for ordinary families to cheat their brother like this, let alone the emperor. But you cheated him without any psychological burden. What if the emperor blames you..."

"Nothing could happen. My brother is not such a stingy person."

Lu Chenxiao disagreed, "Compared to the things I did to him when we were kids, these are just small fry."

Meng Yunshang: “???”

So, instead of being ashamed, you should be proud of it, right?

"Besides, you underestimate the importance that the emperor places on your eldest brother."

"The Emperor thinks highly of my elder brother?"

"If you didn't value him so much, how could you have put him in the position of prime minister against all odds? You know, the prime ministers of the Yuan Dynasty have always been highly respected. Although your elder brother is very talented, he is still a little young after all."

"So that's how it is," Meng Yunshang really didn't know this.

"So even if I didn't instigate it, once he knew your eldest brother had someone in mind, he would immediately help arrange the marriage. What we did today was just to relieve you and mother-in-law's worries in advance."

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your help," Meng Yunshang thanked him with understanding.

Someone was immediately delighted, "Okay, just give me a kiss."

After saying that, he moved his face closer, and Meng Yunshang didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Just as she was about to complain, Dan Gui came running over, "Princess, something happened."
