Taking away my family's luck? I won't stand it!

Looking at Guoan who was talking non-stop with his mouth open.

This kid, I haven't seen him for a while, but his words are still so infuriating.

"How dare you, kid, talk to the emperor like that?" Old Lady Liu slapped Guoan on the back and looked at him with condemning eyes.

Guoan blinked his eyes. He didn't feel any pain from the palm strike on his back. He just didn't understand why he was beaten for speaking to the emperor.

"Nothing, nothing... Guoan is such a cute kid, he's so honest and sincere. I like him very much."

The emperor looked at Guoan, who looked confused, smiled, and hurried out to explain.

Of course, Old Lady Liu knew that Guoan was a man of few words and said whatever he thought, but the person sitting opposite her was the emperor, so she had to express her opinion.

She smiled at the emperor, then looked at Ye Wan and Shen Chulan and said, "You two sisters-in-law, hurry up and go to the kitchen to prepare food. If Yaoyao and the eldest brother come back later, they won't be able to eat hot meals."

Ye Wan and Shen Chulan's faces flashed with joy when they heard this, and they hurried to the kitchen.

Old Mrs. Liu went to the side room to get some melon seeds, peanuts and other things.

Only Old Man Yuan, Fourth Yuan, Third Yuan, the Emperor, Yan'er and a few children were left in the main hall.

It was the first time that Old Man Yuan saw the emperor at such a close distance. He didn't dare to say a word and just drank his tea in silence.

Yuan Laosi and Yuan Laosan had no idea what to say and just sat on the stools drinking tea.

Very quiet.

The Emperor put down his teacup and asked, "I heard that the Yuan family produced four scholars this year. I guess you are the ones?"

The emperor's words suddenly broke the silence.

Old Man Yuan, Third Yuan, and Fourth Yuan did not expect the emperor to ask this question suddenly, and they all looked stunned for a moment.

"Ah... yes, yes, yes." Old man Yuan didn't know what to say, he just kept nodding.

Yuan Laosi was not at a loss for words when faced with the emperor's sudden question. He smiled and replied, "It's just good luck."

Good luck? The emperor doesn't think so.

Looking out from the main room, you can see that the room is full of books.

Lihua Village is so far away from the provincial capital, but the fact that they moved so many books here shows that they are usually hardworking and diligent people.

What the emperor didn't expect was that it was inappropriate for Old Man Yuan to take the examination for a scholar at such an old age....................

With all four of his sons being so outstanding, it seems out of place that Old Man Yuan has only just passed the imperial examination to become a scholar.

This is a bit strange.

Old Lady Liu came out with some sunflower seeds and peanuts, a big smile on her face. "Here, these are the sunflower seeds and peanuts grown by us ordinary people. They are so fragrant."

Old Lady Liu’s words broke the strange atmosphere.

"Sorry to trouble Old Lady Liu." The emperor said with a smile.

"Have a taste."

Old Lady Liu grabbed a handful of peanuts and placed them in the emperor's hand. "Now is not the season for eating peanuts. These peanuts are what we ordinary people save after the harvest to eat during the New Year. Come and try these peanuts."

The emperor applied a little force with his index finger, and the thin crispy shell was stretched open to reveal the round peanut kernel inside. When he put one into his mouth, the rich peanut flavor spread in his mouth. It was crispy and delicious, and there was also a hint of garlic.

The royal family does not eat things with strong flavors, but the emperor is not in the palace now, so he doesn't need to care about it and eats several peanuts in a row.

Before finishing, he peeled a few peanuts for Yan'er and put them in her hands...

"These peanuts are delicious, try them." Her voice was so soft that she didn't even notice it.

Yan'er heard the emperor's voice and smiled and said, "Thank you."

Old Lady Liu was observing the two of them from the side. She always felt that something was not right with the emperor's attitude towards Yan'er.

What is there to say?

Ah, yes!

Since ancient times, the royal family has been the most affectionate.

Could it be that the emperor has fallen in love with Yan'er?

This won't do. The palace is a place full of evil spirits and monsters, none of which are good. If Yan'er, a blind person, goes in, she will definitely be eaten to the bone.

The emperor was sitting with Yan'er. Old Lady Liu suddenly squeezed in between them and almost pushed the emperor off the stool.

"Miss Yan'er, it's cold outside. Let me help you go to the kitchen to warm up."

Yan'er smiled and nodded, "Okay, thank you for troubling me then."

"Why are you wearing such thin clothes? Your face is red from the cold."

Old Mrs. Liu muttered to herself as she supported Yan'er and walked away.

Yue'er was holding a candy in her hand. When she heard what Old Lady Liu said, she lowered her head, pinched the corner of her clothes, and looked at the clothes Yan'er was wearing, staring at her with her round eyes.

薄？

The little ones felt bored staying in the main room, so they decided to go to the yard to practice horse stance.

The emperor was really shocked to see her doing horse stance with a bucket of water in her hands in the cold winter.

He couldn't help but look at Old Man Yuan, "Uncle, how do you educate your children in your family?"

With this family tradition, it’s no wonder that Yaoyao is so capable at such a young age.

Old man Yuan touched his nose with a guilty look on his face.

“They just practiced it for fun.”

The emperor's mouth twitched after hearing this.

Play?

Uncle, you are so humble.

Beijing——

Princess Anguo woke up.

After waking up, he started screaming wildly and smashing things in the room crazily.

The Prime Minister's wife and the old lady looked at the mad Princess Anguo anxiously. They wanted to stop her but were afraid of being hurt by mistake.

"Why hasn't the Prime Minister come back yet?"

The old lady looked at the butler who was waiting beside her.

The butler lowered his head and said, "The Prime Minister is still in the palace. Our people can't get in."

"Just say that Princess Anguo was injured and missed her father. Why didn't you tell the palace guards this? What do those people do for a living?"

When the old lady heard that the prime minister was still in the palace, she looked at the housekeeper angrily.

"Madam, our people have already told the palace guards, but the palace people have not reported it yet."

The butler said truthfully.

"What's going on? He usually comes home at this time." The old lady felt a little strange.

The butler shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either.

Princess Anguo's eyes were red with anger, and she looked at everyone like a mad beast.

She felt very unwilling.

I originally thought I could kill Princess Pingyao once and for all, but in the end, my master and I had to escape...

She also felt that the spiritual power in her body was rapidly draining away, which must be because she was seriously injured.

"No, I must recover my spiritual power quickly. I don't believe I can't kill her!"

When the Prime Minister's wife saw that Princess Anguo stopped smashing things, she quickly hugged her.

"My daughter, you scared me to death. Let me see...let me see if your hand is hurt."
