The concubine pretends to be obedient, the sinister prince's favorite

When Concubine Rou saw that she was silent for a long time, a hint of blame appeared between her eyebrows.

"Look at this girl, she's so happy! Aren't you eager to marry Jun Lin? This is such a great opportunity! Why don't you ask the Emperor for a favor?"

When Concubine Rou said this, not only Ji Qingwan, who was kneeling in the middle of the hall, was stunned, but even Li Junlin couldn't help but frowned.

The man pursed his lips and looked at Jiang Li subconsciously. Although marrying Ji Qingwan was a matter of time, he felt a little depressed when the matter was brought to the surface.

Concubine Rou stood up confidently and walked to the emperor. She didn't think anything would go wrong with this matter that was set in stone.

However, she was still happy too early...

The woman's hand, wearing gorgeous armor, gently rested on the emperor's shoulder and began to knead it in a flattering manner.

"The little girl is shy and embarrassed to bring up these matters. Our Jun Lin is a boy, so he must take the initiative in these matters. He can't delay the girl... Don't you agree, Your Majesty?"

Concubine Rou was standing behind the emperor, so she naturally didn't notice the man's gradually cold expression.

As the emperor, there are so many people who tell lies and flatter him on a daily basis. Of course, he can see through Concubine Rou's impure intentions at a glance.

But since they were in the lobby, he had to give her some face.

"Since the two children are already engaged, let's ask the Imperial Observatory to find a good date for the wedding as soon as possible."

Hearing the voice, Ji Qingwan felt the blood in his body suddenly flow backwards, and he even forgot to thank him.

She didn't want to marry the prince! She couldn't marry...

Seeing that the girl was slow to thank her, Concubine Rou felt more and more disgusted.

Such a shame! If Jiang Li hadn't been promised to Li Jinyuan, how could Ji Qingwan have gotten the position of Grand Princess?!

"Thank you..."

"Father, wait!"

Concubine Rou's words were interrupted by Li Junlin, and everyone's attention was immediately drawn to her.

The emperor also looked at the man kneeling beside Ji Qingwan with interest. Only Concubine Rou had a hint of worry in her eyes.

She knew her son's character too well. He had his own ideas and never took her, his mother's words, to heart!

"Lin'er, what are you going to do?"

The woman's eyes were oppressive and full of warning.

Li Junlin just looked up at her, then cast his gaze on the emperor without any shyness.

"I am an unfilial child and have failed my father and mother's good intentions."

Hearing this, Concubine Rou's heart skipped a beat, and the Emperor was also a little puzzled.

"What do you mean by that, Lin'er?"

The man straightened his back and his tone became firm.

"I don't want to get married yet. The disaster in Jiangzhou hasn't been completely resolved, and the people are still suffering. I don't want to find a new wife for myself at this time."

After he finished speaking, he turned to look at Ji Qingwan, his eyes full of self-blame.

"I'm sorry, Wanwan, for keeping you waiting for so long."

How could Ji Qingwan blame him? At this moment, she felt like she was resurrected and breathed a sigh of relief.

"How could that be? The prince cares about the world. This is good news for the people. There is no need to worry."

The emperor nodded slightly, very satisfied with Li Junlin's decision. Being able to put the suffering of the people first, he was worthy of being the prince of Beichen.

"Very good! Then I will wait until you have quelled the disaster in Jiangzhou, and then I will personally decree the marriage between you and Miss Ji!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Qingwan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and Li Junlin also relaxed his brows.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Unlike the other two who were born young, Concubine Rou's palm was almost crushed by herself.

Her beautiful eyes were filled with viciousness, and she looked at Li Junlin with a look full of blame.

What a loser! The emperor had already agreed, but he just threw away this opportunity!

Concubine Rou returned to her seat, her chest still heaving with anger, and she could no longer maintain her arrogant image of being in control of everything.

The queen on the high throne glanced at her lightly, then half-closed her eyelashes and slightly raised the corners of her lips.

……

After this little episode, the emperor's mood returned to joy.

It was not only because Li Jinyuan brought Jiang Li to attend the palace banquet today, but also because Jiang Pingsheng quelled the invaders from southern Xinjiang and protected the safety of Beichen.

"General Jiang, this glass of wine today is a toast to you! You have made great contributions in defending our country, and I will reward you handsomely!"

Hearing the voice, Jiang Pingsheng hurriedly stood up with the wine glass and respectfully took the wine from the emperor.

"Thank you, Your Majesty! This is what I should do!"

Seeing that his most trusted minister was loyal, the emperor laughed even more wantonly.

"I heard it was your eldest son who captured the rebel leader's head this time? He's so brave at such a young age, it's true that a tiger father will have a tiger son!"

When talking about his son, Jiang Pingsheng's face also showed pride.

"It is my son. It is Lanchuan's honor to serve Beichen."

"Hahahaha good!"

The emperor was in high spirits tonight, and when Jiang Pingsheng sat down, he couldn't help but look at Jiang Li.

My precious daughter looks a little thinner... Is she having a hard time in the Third Prince's Palace? I shouldn't have stopped her from getting married so early...

The old father was filled with worry. Having spent most of his time on the battlefield, he naturally didn't know about the rumors in the capital about the discord between the Third Prince and his wife. Otherwise, he would have been restless long ago...

Jiang Li casually sipped the milky apricot juice in front of her, and her almond eyes narrowed because of the delicious taste.

This thing is not better than milk tea, who researched it...

As her eyes moved, the girl finally noticed Jiang Pingsheng's loving gaze on her.

Jiang Li was stunned for a moment, then based on the original owner's memory, she recognized that this was the old father who doted on his daughter.

Jiang Pingsheng's gaze was passionate and full of love, making it difficult for the girl to react for a moment.

After all, she was an orphan without a father or a mother. Apart from the scattered love from her teacher in the orphanage, she had never experienced what fatherly or motherly love was...

When Jiang Pingsheng saw Jiang Li looking at him, the smile on the corners of his lips became even wider, and the fine lines under the corners of his eyes were wrinkled together.

"Nah!"

He didn't make any sound, but Jiang Li could tell how excited he was by his lip movements.

When faced with love, no one will not be happy from the bottom of their heart.

Jiang Li also smiled at him, the dimple on her right cheek faintly visible, she was extremely sweet.

The old father felt as if his heart was filled with honey, and his daughter was so sweet and lovely...

Unlike that brat, he is tough and used to talking back to him!

Jiang Lanchuan, who was recuperating in the Jiang Mansion, suddenly sneezed. Was someone talking about him behind his back...?
