Chapter 38
Su Jinluo fetched the handkerchief, wiped her fingers carefully, and Qiuchun stood there, stunned for a long time, until the parrot entered the cage by herself, then she closed the cage door, and said in shock: "Miss actually thinks so... ...All the women in the boudoir are looking for high marriage, sincerity, and a good husband, but you think so long-term."

Su Jin felt relieved: After all, I have died once, if I still don't understand these truths, wouldn't I die in vain?

She said slowly: "People's hearts are changeable, and it is really delusional to rely on others to help one's destiny."

Qiuchun nodded heavily, looked at the grapes on the table, and swallowed quietly.

Su Jinluo thought it was funny, seeing her like this, she didn't know how much she listened to, and waved: "Come here, take it and taste it yourself."

Qiuchun immediately beamed with joy and said, "Thank you miss!"

After Su Rui'an quietly brought Li Zi into the palace, there was no sign of Xuanyuan Yun in the East Palace.

He found Xuanyuan Yun's confidant and asked, "Where did your highness go?"

"Yushufang, it seems that he wants to marry the emperor."

Su Rui'an's eyebrows jumped twice, and he thought to himself: It's broken.

Sure enough, the inexperienced little eunuch went on to say: "Since the match ended that day, Your Highness has tested his tone in front of the emperor a few times, and he is sure that the emperor does not object to this marriage. Today, he went to the imperial study room to wait. Ask for a marriage decree."

"……Um."

With his hands behind his back, Su Rui'an paced up and down the hall uneasy, and finally, under the persuasion of the little eunuch, he sat down and waited for the eldest prince to come back.

At this time, Xuanyuan Yun's mood was no more relaxed than Su Rui'an's. He had been standing in the imperial study for half an hour. Since his father heard his request, he lowered his head to correct the memorial, intentionally leaving him alone.

Xuanyuan Yun's patience was gradually exhausted by time, and he couldn't help but said: "Father, I fell in love with Miss Su at first sight, and she later tried to save my life. After I escaped from death, I swore that I would not marry her in this life." .”

The emperor laughed, and said inexplicably: "If it's her, don't marry? I want to tell you, you young people are just a little impulsive and reckless. Let's talk about it when he comes."

"Which him?"

An ominous premonition filled his heart, and Xuanyuan Yun repeated: "I beg my father to marry me to my son..."

Before he could finish speaking, there was an announcement from outside, "Prince Xu has arrived——".

Only then did the emperor put down the pen in his hand, and said: "Let him wait outside, Yun'er, you have to know what it means for Zhen to let you stay in the East Palace."

Xuanyuan Yun is not stupid, he has made great military achievements outside the border, and is the empress's heir, he must be the future prince, the future emperor.

Knowing his father's intentions, he gritted his teeth and said, "My son is stupid."

The emperor went straight to the point and said: "Xixia has long planned to get married, and will send the princess to visit and play in the near future. When the time comes, you must entertain her well."

Xuanyuan Yun couldn't understand the meaning behind the words, he suddenly widened his eyes and said loudly: "Father!"

The emperor ignored his dissatisfaction, and said to the door: "Let King Xu come in."

Soon, Xu Yushan walked in. He was keenly aware that the atmosphere was not right, and he saluted and said, "Father, what are your orders for calling your servant?"

"The two of you went out for the sake of Miss Su, fought and competed a lot, although in the end because of some oolongs, there was no result, but your ability and talent, as a father, is in the eyes of the father."

The emperor wanted to belittle Xianyang, and then said: "Yun'er's marriage contract has been settled long ago, and she will not be able to marry a wife for a while. Miss Su is a direct descendant of the general's mansion, so naturally she will not be willing to be Yun'er's concubine."

Xu Yushan clenched his cuffs secretly, with a calm appearance on the surface, his heart was already filled with waves, he took a deep breath, and quietly waited for the emperor's next words.

"What about you?"

Xu Yushan raised his head, "My son..."

"I ask you, how do you like Miss Su?"

Xu Yushan's eyes trembled slightly, and he felt that his breath was trembling slightly, but the next moment, he raised his smile again, and said: "I want to report to my father, I just met with Miss Su a few times, and the conversation is very awkward." Speculation is nothing more than a friend, and my son doesn't care about her at all."

As soon as these words came out, Xu Yushan felt the eldest prince beside him breathe a sigh of relief, and the two looked at each other.

Xuanyuan Yun's eyes rarely let go of hostility, and he was full of gratitude, as if he was lucky that he didn't marry Su Jinluo.

Xu Yushan sneered in his heart, he did have a different feeling for Su Jinluo, but the throne is close at hand, thousands of miles away, powerful and rich, he can still see it, which one of these is not as long as the love of children more important?

Even though I thought about it, I still felt empty in my heart, and the draft was blowing, blowing loudly, cooling my whole body.

The emperor seemed to be able to see through everything, his eyes fell on him, stared at him for a long time, and half-jokingly said: "It shouldn't be, since you have no feelings for Miss Su, why bother to compete for her?"

Xu Yushan forced a smile and said: "Emotional matters need to pay attention to fate. My son and Ms. Su have not yet cultivated a perfect relationship, so it's meaningless to force it."

"Ah."

The emperor looked at him, as if through Xu Yushan's slender and straight figure, he saw Xu Hua who was waiting by the bridge with an umbrella back then. She was smart but stubborn. There is no way out, but I have been waiting to meet him again all my life. Thinking of this, I feel sore in my heart.

After asking one more question, he said, "Then what kind of person should your favorite look like?"

"The love of my son and minister should be in the sky."

"Why do you say that?"

"When I was a commoner, I always loved traveling in the mountains and rivers. I was used to being free and unrestrained. I didn't want to wear the shackles of emotions. So, I would rather travel to great rivers and mountains and live a happy life."

The emperor laughed loudly, obviously taking Xu Yushan's words as a joke, and said, "Nonsense! I will definitely find a lady from a noble family to marry in the future."

After finishing speaking, he brought up the topic of marrying the princess again, and tapped: "Yun'er, you'd better treat the guests from afar seriously. As long as she is satisfied, I will immediately decree to make you the crown prince. Did you hear me?"

"Yes, my son obeys the order."

Xuanyuan Yun was full of reluctance, but since the emperor had said so, he made up his mind that he could only fool the princess of Xi Xia first, and then make plans for his marriage with Su Jinluo.

After going out, Xuanyuan Yun stopped Xu Yushan and said, "I can't see that you have no feelings for Miss Su. Is it because you are stubborn, or do you have other plans?"

"I'm not as brave as Brother Huang." Xu Yushan turned back without changing his expression, "I wish Brother Huang can marry the one he loves."

The implication of these words is that Xuanyuan Yun is about to be forced to marry the princess, and it is difficult to explain to Su Jinluo.

Xuanyuan Yun said angrily: "You!"

"I'll take my leave."

Xu Yushan turned around and left.
