e to deceive.>"Alright, you win. But next time if you want to find someone, please don't use such extreme methods. Luckily those villagers are fine, or else I wouldn't let you off!""Thank you for your...qian Yi nodded. “I’ve always remembered what you said, things are in our hands! Ge'er, I will work hard and will never disappoint you!”

“What do you mean by not letting me down It’s about not disappointing yourself. Just do your best. I just heard the Emperor praising you, saying that lately, you have single-handedly arranged the deployment of all the troops in Beijing, everything is well organized. The Emperor also said that he entrusted the management of Beijing to you because he trusts you very much>>> 。“After hearing this, Qian Yi'an’s eyes flashed with a strange look before he smiled and said, “These days, I have only been handling some affairs on behalf of His Highness the Crown Prince. Now that His Highness has returned, the things in my hands should be returned to him.” 。“Why give it to him You're not incapable of managing it yourself. If he wasn't the crown prince, you could have been... ” She realized she had spoken out of turn and instinctively patted her mouth, quickly changing her words: “What I mean is, he's the Crown Prince, with so many things to attend to. You could help him share the burden, it wouldn't hurt. Besides, he might not manage it as well as you.” 。"Praying silently, he hadn't heard that, had he" 。After hearing this, Qian Yi'an still had a smile on his face, as if he hadn't heard it at all: "Then I'll take care of it for him first. When the day comes that he wants to take it back, I'll give it back to him." 。"That's right then, you're now the King with heavy troops in hand, be more confident!" Xiao Yuge also smiled and nodded, secretly patting her chest. Luckily, he hadn't really listened to it, otherwise, the consequences would have been a bit serious. 。"Ge'er, are you really going to marry the little emperor uncle" Qian Yi'an asked cautiously. 。Xiao Yu's song eyes sank slightly, and she shook her head lightly: "I don't know yet..." The emperor's actions today made it seem that her marriage to Qian Tingxuan was probably over. 。"What's wrong" Qian Yi'an looked at him with great concern. 。 There isn't anything 。Xiao Yu sang, shaking her head and putting on a forced smile: "Right, in a few days you're getting married, how are the preparations going"Qian Yi an lowered his head and smiled softly: "I'm just taking a concubine, it's just a formality. The main focus is still on my second brother's wedding." 。" What's the matter It's a major life event, first time for everything, it has to be grand. Why should it all be about him Yours is important too..." "Ge'er, you forgot, this is my third time..." 。 。Xiao Yuge saw this and hurriedly changed his words: “The last two times didn't count, but this time, this is the person you truly want to marry, the one you want to grow old with. This time counts.” 。“The first time, it was because of her encouragement. She had been feeling guilty about this for a long time. Now seeing him able to stand up again and about to marry a princess, that Miss Ye, she seemed like a kind person too. She thought they would surely be happy together.” 。"Actually I..." Qian Yi'an was about to say something 。"Your Highness!" At this moment, a soft voice like silver bells came from the side, sweet yet resilient, just like dewdrops in the morning sun. One could only hear her voice but not see her person, and it gave a refreshing feeling. 。"Miss Ye " 。Xiao Yu sang raised his eyes to see her coming, and he greeted her friendly. 。 “Ms. Xiao” 。Ye Lin also smiled and nodded at Xiao Yuge, then naturally walked to Qian Yi'an's side. 。Before she could even speak, Qian Yi'an pointed at Xiao Yuge and said, "Lin'er, the Emperor has bestowed upon Ge'er the title of Protector Nation County Princess. In the future, when you see her, please be respectful." 。"Ye Lin saw the County Princess!" Ye Lin, upon hearing this, hurriedly bowed respectfully to Xiao Yuge. She knew that even if she married the Prince, if you said it nicely, she was a concubine; if you said it harshly, she was just a mistress. Naturally, she was more noble than a County Princess who wasn't personally appointed by the Emperor." 。"Miss Ye, you needn't be so courteous," 。Don't listen to the Lord's words, about what princess and what not. The Lord and I have always kept to ourselves. You are about to marry the Lord, so you can call me Ge'er just like him. 。Yelin hadn't expected Xiao Yuge to be so approachable. It was completely different from what she had heard from Minrou County Princess. Just as she was about to say something, Qian Yi'an on the side spoke first: "No! LIn'er married me, of course, she must be cautious in her words and deeds, and all etiquette is essential, lest people talk." 。“ ” Ye Lin also smiled and nodded: “Your Highness is right.” 。That gentle smile made people feel very at ease. Xiao Yuge found it hard to imagine that someone as cunning and scheming as the Grand Tutor could raise such a well-behaved and obedient adopted daughter. It was truly strange. 。"Alright, I won't disturb you any longer. I have other matters to attend to and must leave the palace for now. On your wedding day, I will personally send my congratulations." 。"Xiao Yu sang a song to them, laughing as she waved goodbye before turning and walking away." 。"Song..." Qian Yi'an still wanted to say something, but she had already walked far away. He gazed at her beautiful back with a touch of wistfulness. 。"To think the National Protector Princess is so beautiful, and looks so innocent and kind... How can she be so different from what they've said" Ye Lin watched Xiao Yuge's retreating figure, her delicate face full of confusion. 。

Lately, the most she'd heard was that after Prince Rui had broken off his engagement with Xiao Yuge, she had hooked up with the Duke and even lived in Ruyi Fang, a place known for its entertainment and courtesans. At first, she thought Xiao Yuge was just being bold because of her beauty, but from what she just saw, Xiao Yuge seemed different from the rumors. 。When Qian Yi heard this, his eyes darkened: "Lin'er, you should know that rumors are not always true. In the future, try to stay away from the palace when you have nothing to do, especially those who love to spread gossip and rumors. Keep your distance from them." 。You must remember that in this palace, uttering the wrong word could lead to eternal ruin. 。Ge'er is simple and kind; she shouldn't be slandered by just anyone!” “Yes! Lin’er remembers.” 。Ye Lin nodded obediently and followed Qian Yi'an. 。Xiao Yuge was named the Protectorate Princess, and this news spread throughout the entire imperial city like a heavy bomb. Everyone was very puzzled. The emperor had just named Xiao Yu'er, the eldest daughter of the Xiao family, as the National Security Princess. How could a few months later, he have named Xiao Yuge, who had once been mistaken for a daughter from the Xiangfu, as the Protectorate PrincessThe key is that this time, the emperor not only granted her a mansion but also a fiefdom, which was unheard of in Lan Zhao. People were puzzled, why did the Xiao family girl have such glory On every street and alley, there were rumors. Some said that Xiao Yuge was about to marry the Prince, so the emperor wanted to give her a noble status; others said that the emperor intended to marry both daughters of the Xiao family to the prince, so he appointed both of them as princesses. Anyway, all kinds of versions spread more and more wildly... 。Mingzhu Mansion 。Xiao Yu Ge looked at the luxurious mansion before her, feeling a deep sense of helplessness in her heart. But this was a gift from the Emperor, and she couldn't go back, so she could only grit her teeth and walk inside. 。t there unwillingly. 。After they left, only Xiao Yu Ge and Qian Ting Xuan were left there. They just stared at each other in silence. It was so quiet that all you could hear was the sound of the wind...
