Chapter 971: Threat (2)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Thousands of miles away in the Xuanyuan Kingdom’s Qinghe prefecture, a discussion was happening between the commoners.

“Have you heard? His Highness cried for another night last night.” 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝙚𝒘𝙚𝙗𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝙢

“Of course I heard about it. I even saw His Highness just now. His eyes were red. It’s obvious that he was crying badly.”

“His Highness must have cried because he couldn’t bear to see the commoners suffer. His Highness is really a good person.”

Ji Luo glared at Xuanyuan Ce, who was suffering beside her. She endured it and said disdainfully, “If you get up in the middle of the night to cry again, sleep in the study.”

Xuanyuan Ce said pitifully, “Ah Luo, you’re all I have. Don’t leave me.” Ji Luo stayed silent.

The surroundings suddenly fell silent. Little Jiajia looked up strangely. The singing and dancing in the hall had stopped at some point, and everyone was looking at her without blinking.

Little Jiajia was confused and subconsciously looked for her husband’s gaze.

Their eyes met.

The little heir did not expect her to suddenly look over. His heart skipped a beat and he subconsciously looked away. He pursed his lips and glanced at Emperor Chong’an.

Little Jiajia understood and followed his gaze. Her gaze was much more straightforward, and the words ‘Why are you looking at me?” were clearly written on her face.

Emperor Chong’an choked and almost couldn’t maintain the look of fondness on his face.

However, when he thought of the letter that was still lying on the table in his bedroom and the urgent report sent by the border guards, he could only endure it. He smiled and said, “Princess, this is your first time in Great Xia. I think you’re not familiar with Chang’an. Why don’t you stay in Wanjing Garden first? I’ll get someone to bring you around in the future so that I can do my best as a host.’

Everyone in the hall had different expressions. It had to be known that Wanjing Garden was beside the palace. It was beautiful all year round and was known as the small palace. It had never been opened to the public, let alone been lived in.

It was true that the Xuanyuan Kingdom was a powerful country, but this was only a princess and a little girl. Emperor Chong’an was so polite that everyone was puzzled.

Of course, they had never experienced the fear of waking up early in the morning and seeing two strangers standing by the bed, let alone knowing the existence of that letter. It was normal that they could not figure it out. Emperor Chong’an did not need their understanding.

After all, he was the ruler of a country. If word got out that he was being threatened, he would embarrass himself.

Others felt that it was a huge gift for Emperor Chong’an to let Little Jiajia stay in Wanjing Garden, but Little Jiajia did not think so. She pursed her lips and looked at Emperor Chong’an as if she was looking at an evil person who wanted to separate her and her little husband. “There’s no need. I have a place to stay.” The smile on Emperor Chong’an’s face froze. “Oh? I heard that this is the princess’s first time in Great Xia.”

He had been getting someone to keep an eye on the Bulwark Duke’s residence, so he naturally heard the rumors immediately. At first, he ignored them, but when he found out that the other party was the princess of the Xuanyuan Kingdom, he felt that the matter was serious.

Fortunately, the person who went to investigate returned and said that it was a misunderstanding. After probing today and confirming that the Song family did not know the other party’s identity, he was relieved.

“It’s true that it’s my first time in Great Xia, but I think the Song family is good.

It’s good to live in the Duke’s Residence.”

Little Jiajia looked at Old Master Song. Although she had only heard a few words from Kunning Palace, she roughly knew the emperor of Great Xia’s attitude towards the Song family. In order not to cause trouble for the Song family, she stopped talking and blinked. “Grandpa, I see that there are many empty courtyards in the residence. Can I stay there?”

Everyone was shocked. She actually rejected His Majesty’s suggestion!

What did she mean by the Song family being good? Did she mean that His Majesty was not good?

This was ridiculous.

Some people could not help but want to reprimand her. When they noticed that Emperor Chong’an was holding back his laughter, they were smart enough to keep their mouths shut.

Old Master Song trembled under everyone’s gazes. He cupped his hands and said, “Princess, my humble residence is really simple. I’m afraid I haven’t received you well. Why don’t you…”

MO Yuan interrupted him. “Our princess doesn’t like to be restrained. Since she feels that the Bulwark Duke’s Residence is good, she has her own reasons. I hope His Majesty will agree.”

She looked at Emperor Chong’an when she said this.

Emperor Chong’an could not continue laughing. How could he agree? What if this young princess was pretending to be traveling and wanted to rope in the Song family?

“I don’t care. That little brother is good-looking. I want to stay at his house.” Little Jiajia suddenly changed from her previous obedient self. She pointed impatiently at the little heir who was looking at Old Master Song worriedly.

Everyone looked in the direction he was pointing at and saw the young heir’s ridiculously exquisite face. Coupled with the rumors they had heard previously, they instantly understood that the young princess of the Xuanyuan Kingdom cared about his looks.

Emperor Chong’an also thought of this and felt that she was just a spoiled girl. Apart from being a little angry, he was also angry that he did not give birth to a son who was prettier than the Song family’s son.

With this thought in mind, he could not help but glance at the princes, making their expressions turn cold.

Emperor Chong’an thought to himself, “They’re actually not bad-looking, especially the Second Prince.”

Eunuch Li coughed lightly to remind him.

Emperor Chong’an came back to his senses and smiled. “In that case, don’t refuse. Help me entertain the princess well. Don’t let her suffer.” Old Master Song stood up and cupped his hands. “Yes.” Little Jiajia smiled. “Thank you, Emperor of Great Xia.”

Emperor Chong’an smiled.

Although this banquet caught Little Jiajia off guard, she did not have to worry about being sent home. She could also openly stay in the Bulwark Duke’s Residence. This outcome was good. She did not mind that the palace had specially arranged a carriage to send her off, preventing her from sitting with her little husband.

Compared to her good mood, Emperor Chong’an, who had returned to Yangxin Hall, was not so happy. freeweb novel. com

“This is too much. Xuanyuan Ce is simply too much.” Emperor Chong’an swept

the memorial on the imperial table to the ground.

Eunuch Li had already dismissed the servants in the hall before the emperor lost his temper. Seeing this, he quickly knelt down and advised, “Your Majesty, calm down.”

“Calm down? I’m the emperor of a country. How can I calm down when someone threatens me with a sword at my throat?”

Eunuch Li thought to himself, “So what if you’re angry? Nothing can be done about it. After you’re done being angry, won’t you still have to smile at a little girl?”

However, as the number one eunuch, Eunuch Li naturally had to share the burden for the emperor. After thinking for a moment, he said, “In my opinion, it’s not a bad thing for the princess of the Xuanyuan Kingdom to come to

Chang’an..”
