Chapter 348 Fear of prospective father-in-law
Chunzhuo and Mingjia had already returned home, but their daughter did not come back for a long time, Xia Huaixun was very worried.

It's not that she's worried about any danger her daughter will encounter, but that she's worried about Yan Jingshen who also hasn't returned to Beijing.

Now that this kid is back, it means that his daughter has also returned to the mansion, and he really can't stay any longer.

Just as he was thinking, Yan Jingshen had followed the little eunuch into the imperial study.

I haven't seen him for more than two months. Except for a slightly darker complexion, he hasn't changed much.

No, the way this kid looked at him...

Xia Huaixun was very reluctant to admit it, but there was a hint of complacency in his eyes, as if he had taken advantage of something!
He couldn't wait any longer.

Grand Master Xia sat on top of him, seeing his son's absent-minded look, he hummed lightly.

Xia Huaixun pursed his lips and sat up straight again.

Yan Jingshen walked forward with a smile, first saluted Feng Huang, and then greeted all the important officials one by one.

Feng Huang smiled and said: "Let's stop here today, I'm a little tired."

These words were exactly what Xia Huaixun wanted, and he stood up with all the adults.

But Feng Huang said again: "Xiguang go to the side hall and wait later, I still have some things to discuss with you."

Let's discuss... ah!

Xia Huaixun almost cursed, but he could only respond: "Yes, Your Majesty."

He followed Taishi Xia and walked out of the imperial study room with all the important officials.

Grand Master Xia deliberately slowed down his pace, and instructed in a low voice: "Be careful with yourself, and return home first for your father."

Xia Huaixun knew what his father was referring to, and hurriedly said: "Son knows, father must not be angry when he sees Yue'er later, everything will be discussed when I come back."

Grand Master Xia didn't even bother to look at him, and left with a flick of his sleeves.

Xia Huaixun sighed silently, he was also concerned just now but was confused.

The father loved his little granddaughter so much, even if Yue'er got into trouble, he would not be as strict as he used to be to his sons.

"Xia Xueshi, please." Eunuch An raised his hand.

Xia Huaixun forced a smile and followed him to the side hall.

Only Fenghuang and Yan Jingshen remained in the imperial study.

"Sit down, I've been away from Beijing for more than two months, I seem to be much more stable."

Yan Jingshen cupped his fists: "Grandson didn't capture Gu Yannan during this trip, please punish Grandfather."

Fenghuang laughed and said: "I asked you to protect King Yasu and his wife, arresting Gu Yannan was just a matter of incident.

Now King Yasu and his wife are safe and sound, and there is a fat boy who weighs eight catties. Your contribution is not small, and I should reward you well. "

Yan Jingshen's fingers curled up.

The news of the old emperor is really well-informed, so we must be more careful in the future.

However, he just passed on the matter of Gu Yannan, apparently not paying much attention to it.

"Sit down, you stand like this and you have to raise your head when talking, it's so tiring." Fenghuang smiled and pointed to the chair closest to him.

"Thank you, Grandfather." Yan Jingshen sat down as he said.

Fenghuang stroked his long beard, and looked at him seriously several times.

"Did Miss Xia come back with you?"

"Yes, grandson accompanied her to Yicheng."

Fenghuang didn't care where they went at all, what he cared about was how much progress the relationship between the two had made.

"Yue girl is good at everything, but she is as stubborn as her father. How do you feel this trip?"

"Fortunately, she only cares about Queen Yasu, and doesn't care about anything else."

Fenghuang nodded: "Yue girl has been pampered since she was a child, but she is not as delicate as other noble girls. Those who can be treated sincerely by her are really blessed.

Fortunately, Queen Yasu gave birth quite smoothly this time. Li Yuanyu had the eldest son, and the situation in Yasu City was stable. "

Yan Jingshen's eyebrows moved slightly.

Li Yuanyu had already submitted a memorial to Xia Fanshuang's childbirth, so the old emperor should know about it.

But he had discussed with Li Yuanyu, and the fact that Gu Yannan took the little prince away would not be mentioned in the memorial.

Anyway, Yushu Linfeng belongs to the old emperor, so he will naturally report the matter to him in detail.

But listening to what he said just now, he clearly didn't know the twists and turns.

She didn't know that the little prince was taken away, nor did she know that the devil pepper had fallen into the hands of Gu Yannan.

In other words, that fellow Lin Feng did not betray them.

Yan Jingshen smiled and said, "Yes, the little prince seems to be a lucky one."

"Of course a fat boy who weighs eight catties is lucky!" Feng Huang's tone was full of envy.

There are a large group of his grandsons, and there are several who are not young, but there is no great-grandson.

Xia Fanshuang and Li Yuanyu hugged a fat boy just a year after their marriage, which is really enviable.

"Shen'er, there are so many useful people around Miss Yue, yet she asked you to accompany her to Yicheng. This is very telling."

Yan Jingshen pretended not to know: "But my grandson treats me the same way as before. What does grandfather think is wrong with this?"

"Stinky boy!" Feng Huang thumped him on the shoulder: "You are so smart, and you are not too young, yet you still pretend to be innocent?"

"The imperial grandfather misunderstood, the grandson is really..."

"I really don't understand?" Feng Huang thought for a while: "Why don't I reward you with a few beauties, and if you are so stupid, you will be disgusted by Yue girl!"

Yan Jingshen's scalp felt a little numb.

Could it be that the old emperor did it on purpose?
If there are a few more so-called "beauties" around me, wouldn't it satisfy Devil Pepper's wishes?
He quickly shook his head: "Grandfather, let's spare his grandson. There are a few more women around him before anything is done. How can the teacher like me as a son-in-law?"

Fenghuang laughed even louder.

"Other men don't dare to take concubines because they are afraid of internal affairs, but you are afraid of your father-in-law, and you are also a prospective father-in-law!"

Yan Jingshen said with a bitter face: "The teacher's wife has been away for more than ten years, and the teacher has never thought of continuing, and there is not even a waiter around her.

He has such high demands on himself, let alone his son-in-law.

If the grandson dares to think that way, let alone a son-in-law, I'm afraid he won't even be a student! "

Fenghuang was quite disapproving of his statement.

Xia Huaixun is indeed a seed of infatuation, which even exceeds his old father Xia Taishi.

However, the Xia family did not have a rule against taking concubines. Xia Huaiyu, the second son of Taishi Xia, has been a romantic for decades.

Fortunately, he was not a courtier, otherwise he would have brought disaster on Taishi Xia and the Xia family.

In other words, Grand Master Xia can't even manage his own son well, so why should he demand such things from his grandson-in-law?

Once Shen'er inherits the throne, she can't have only one queen by her side.

At that time, in order to consolidate Yueyatou's position as queen, the Xia family may have to take the initiative to put people around Shen'er!

Thinking of this, Fenghuang smiled and said: "This is much better than your father."

Yan Jingshen said: "Grandfather is referring to..."

"He didn't like any of the wife candidates that the Queen Mother and I picked for him back then."

The depth of the scene really can't accept these words.

Can he say that his fancy for Devil Pepper has nothing to do with the old emperor?
He and Devil Pepper are an old husband and wife, and there is nothing comparable to that kind of arranged marriage.
