Chapter 253

Mu An'an saw Xiao Li bring his fiancée in five days later.

At that time, Mu An'an was talking with A Zhu in the front hall. Suddenly, he heard that Xiao Li was begging to see her. Mu An'an was stunned, wondering why Xiao Li suddenly wanted to see her?
Mu Anan looked at the maid who came to report, and said in surprise, "Do you know why Mr. Xiao suddenly came to see me?"

"Return to your mother's words."

The palace maid bowed her head and said: "When I saw Master Xiao, I seem to have brought a girl over to beg to see my mother."

"girl?"

After saying this, Mu An'an instantly knew why Xiao Li came to beg to see her. It turned out that he brought his fiancée.

Mu An'an said: "Go and let Master Xiao and the others come in."

"Yes, ma'am."

Saying that, the maid bowed her head in response, then turned and left.

In no time.

The palace maid brought Xiao Li and Ling Xiao'er in together, and said: "Your Majesty, Lord Xiao has already brought you here."

Mu Anan hummed, and said to the maid: "You should step back first."

"Yes."

The maid leaves.

"Your Majesty, this is my subordinate's fiancée, Ling Xiaoer."

After Xiao Li finished speaking, Ling Xiaoer raised her eyes, with a slight smile on her lips, her gaze was soft, and she said in a gentle tone: "Minister Ling Xiaoer has seen your empress."

"Sit down first."

Seeing the smile on Ling Xiaoer's face, Mu An'an couldn't help but bend the corners of her lips, she glanced at Xiao Li, and deliberately teased: "I thought Xiao Li would hide you tightly, no I am willing to let my palace see you."

"Unexpectedly, Xiao Li still took Bengong's words to heart."

Hearing this, Xiao Li's expression paused for a moment, and a slight blush appeared on his face. He clenched his fist and coughed lightly, and said: "The command of the empress, I will remember it in my heart, and I dare not forget it."

"Hey, but Xiao Li, you're still blushing."

Mu An'an has been paying attention to Xiao Li's face all the time, seeing him blushing unexpectedly, Mu An'an really can't believe it, after all, she has always seen Xiao Li with an expressionless face. Just never.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Li still cared a lot about this fiancée who was suddenly found.

Ling Xiao'er didn't notice at first, but when she suddenly heard what the empress said, she subconsciously raised her eyes to look at Xiao Li, but unexpectedly met his deep eyes.

Ling Xiaoer was slightly startled, her fair cheeks seemed to be stained with rouge, she bit her lip, her heart was almost as sweet as honey.

Originally, when Xiao Li told her that she was going to enter the palace, Ling Xiaoer was still full of anxiety, fearing that she could not speak and offend the empress for a while.

But she didn't expect that Empress Jun's temperament was so gentle.

Gradually, Ling Xiaoer let go of her nervousness.

Xiao Li silently looked away, and said, "Madam, the weather is too hot, this subordinate is blushing from the heat."

Mu Anan: "."

Ling Xiaoer: "."

This reason was so strong that Mu Anan suddenly had no words to refute, so she had no choice but to send Xiao Li away.

In the end, Xiao Li had no choice but to leave.

Before leaving, he glanced at Ling Xiaoer again, and after seeing Ling Xiaoer pursed his lips and smiled lightly, Xiao Li left with peace of mind.

Seeing this scene, Mu Anan felt inexplicably relieved.

In the past, she always saw Xiao Li with a cold face, but now when she met Ling Xiao'er, his expression changed a little.

Mu An sighed inwardly, and suddenly said: "Azhu, serve tea, and then go to the small kitchen and bring the cakes that Ben Gong likes to let Miss Xiao'er taste."

"Yes, ma'am."

Azhu took the order and left.

Because the empress would like to have some snacks from time to time, Azhu prepared all kinds of pastries that the empress liked to eat in the small kitchen.

Ling Xiao'er didn't expect her mother to treat her so tenderly.

When A Zhu placed the delicately shaped pastry in front of Ling Xiaoer, Ling Xiaoer still couldn't react, she lowered her eyes and stared at the pastry blankly.

"how?"

Mu Anan looked at Ling Xiaoer in surprise, and said softly, "Don't you like eating these?"

"I have tried these before, and I think the taste is very good. If you don't like it, then I will send the maid to the imperial dining room to have a look and bring all kinds of pastries for you to try?"

"No need, ma'am."

Hearing this, Ling Xiaoer came back to her senses immediately, she looked at Mu An'an apologetically and said, "Ma'am, just now the girl was distracted for a moment, and she didn't mean she didn't like these pastries."

"Really, it's been a long time since Minnv has seen these delicate pastries."

Before she disappeared, Ling Xiaoer's family was well-off, and she was never short of food and clothing, and she was the only daughter in the family, her parents loved her very much, and they would give her whatever she wanted.

Unfortunately.
She was unfilial, but in the end she couldn't even see her parents for the last time.

But fortunately, she was found by Xiao Li, and Xiao Li is willing to fulfill the marriage contract with her, she is already very satisfied
Mu An'an also heard about Ling Xiao'er's situation from Su Jing.

However, she didn't expect that Ling Xiaoer still has such a gentle temperament after suffering, which is really suitable for Xiao Li.

"Since it's been a long time, let's try it."

Mu An'an said softly, "You will like it."

"Thank you madam."

Ling Xiaoer pursed her lips and smiled at Mu Anan. She picked up a small piece of red bean cake and took a bite slowly. It was sweet but not greasy.

It was somewhat similar to the taste in her memory.

Her eyes lit up immediately, and the corners of her lips curved: "Sure enough, it's really delicious, as your mother said."

"Since it's delicious, eat more."

Mu An'an was not hungry at first, but when she saw Ling Xiaoer eating the cake, she suddenly had an appetite, so she picked up a small piece of red bean cake and ate it.

"Well, it's really delicious."

Azhu watched from the side, and couldn't help but want to laugh, she said: "My lady, the red bean cakes here are no different from what my lady usually eats."

Mu Anan: "."

Suddenly, I felt that the red bean cake in my mouth was not fragrant.

Mu Anan put down the red bean cake, and she purposely said with a stern face, "Azhu, you are getting more and more presumptuous, even Bengong dares to tease you."

Ling Xiaoer froze, her body froze immediately, she didn't dare to move any more, she didn't even dare to eat the pastry she was holding in her hand.

But Azhu was still smiling, she pursed her lips, tried her best to hold back her smile and said, "Azhu dare not go back to your mother."

"How can you dare not?"

Mu Anan pretended to be unhappy and complained: "I am not allowed to do this or that every day, and I complain to the king from time to time. You are really promising."

A Zhu: ". Your Majesty."

Hearing her mother's complaint, Ah Zhu said that it was really difficult for her.

The empress began to turn over old accounts again.

But those are obviously what the emperor told her specifically, so she must not let the empress do those rough jobs, and she must not let the empress stand for a long time.
There are masters on both sides, and she doesn't know whose orders to listen to.

Azhu sighed deeply, "Ma'am, Miss Xiao'er is still here."

"Cough cough."

Hearing this, Mu An'an immediately picked up her image of a gentle lady, pretending that nothing happened just now, Mu An'an said: "Miss Xiao'er, don't be restrained, Bengong and Azhu are just playing around. .”

Ling Xiao'er nodded lightly immediately, she said: "Your Majesty is really gentle."

Mu Anan, who was suddenly praised, was instantly happy.

She pursed the corners of her lips reservedly, and said: "I see that Miss Xiao'er's temperament is also very gentle."

Azhu: "."

the other side.

Royal study.

After all, Su Rong got the whereabouts of the other half of the evidence from Su Changqing.

However, the other half of the evidence is a bit trickier.

"He really said that?"

The long silence was suddenly broken by Su Jing's words, "The other half of the evidence is in the state of Chu, what does Su Changqing think?"

Su Jing sneered.

"Could it be that he thinks that the king of Chu State can seek justice for him? Or is it that the king of Chu State will help him snatch Gu's position and take Su State away?"

"maybe."

Su Rong also felt that Su Changqing was probably in a daze. He thought he was finding out the truth, and he thought he wanted to avenge his father.
Betrayed the State of Su and wanted to cooperate with the State of Chu.

Want to rebel and snatch the throne.

Su Rong never cared much about power, the reason why he became a general was simply because he agreed to Su Jing's words back then.

As long as Su Jing is the emperor, he will always be the general stationed at the frontier.

Now, Su Rong has indeed achieved it, but Su Changqing made him feel very disappointed.

Su Rong never thought that Su Changqing would always covet the throne.

"Your Majesty," Su Rong said suddenly, "If I can bring back the other half of the evidence and find out the truth, I implore Your Majesty to spare Su Changqing's life, even if he is imprisoned in the death row forever, I will not let you go." There is no objection."

"Anyway, Su Changqing is also the younger brother of the minister, the son of the father and the king, the minister really doesn't want to"

"it is good."

Before Su Rong finished speaking, Su Jing had already agreed.

He understands what Su Rong means, the entire royal family of Su Kingdom, now only he, Su Rong and Su Changqing are left. When he finds out the truth, he will spare Su Changqing's life, which can be regarded as a gift to the emperor's uncle. explain.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Su Rong said.

Seeing that the emperor agreed, Su Rong felt relieved.

If the father died of injustice, then he can only protect Su Changqing for the father.

"You don't have to thank Gu," Su Jing said indifferently: "At the beginning, it was because Gu was not cautious enough that others could take advantage of it. Speaking of it, Gu owes something."

Su Rong was speechless for a while.

After a while, Su Rong said: "If Your Majesty has no other orders, then I will step down first."

"Ah."

Su Jing nodded slightly.

After Su Rong left, Su Jing continued to stay in the imperial study to handle political affairs.

Eunuch Min, who was waiting outside the hall, heard the words, walked in quickly, and said, "I don't know what orders do you have?"

Su Jing was about to speak, when suddenly, he raised his eyes and looked out of the window, and saw that the sky was sunny with a gentle breeze.

Su Jing remembered that in the morning, An An said that he wanted to go to the Royal Garden, and he agreed.

He said that after finishing the political affairs, he would go back to accompany her.

After pondering for a while, Su Jing said: "What is your empress doing in the hall now?"

Eunuch Min: "???"

Fortunately, Eunuch Min thought that the emperor was going to tell him to do something, but he didn't know that he asked about the situation of the empress.

All of a sudden, Eunuch Min was stunned.

He has always followed the king's side, guarding outside the palace of the imperial study, never leaving a step.

Eunuch Min really didn't inquire about the Empress.

Just when Eunuch Min was worrying about how to answer, Su Jing could see that he didn't know either, so he said, "Forget it, I'll go back and see for myself."

Since he was always worried, he had no choice but to go back to Wanhuang Hall in person.

Eunuch Min heaved a sigh of relief. Seeing that His Majesty was not angry, he hurriedly followed His Majesty and hurried towards Wanhuang Palace.

at this time.

Inside Wanhuang Hall.

Originally, Mu An'an planned to go to the Royal Garden for a walk, but now, with Ling Xiao'er by her side, she didn't want to go.

While talking in the hall, Mu An'an almost forgot about it.

She didn't remember such a thing until she saw Su Jing came back.

"The daughter of the people has met the king."

Seeing Junshang appearing suddenly, Ling Xiaoer immediately became nervous. She was about to kneel and kowtow in a hurry, but was stopped by Mu Anan. She smiled and said, "Miss Xiaoer, don't panic."

Ling Xiao'er had no choice but to stand up again, but she still looked restrained, with her head bowed, not daring to make a sound.

After all, it was Jun Shang who was facing her at this time, and Ling Xiaoer dared not relax in the slightest.

Su Jing didn't care much about this.

Anyway, what An An meant was what he meant, not to mention, keeping An An happy is the most important thing now.

Su Jing walked beside Mu An'an and sat down. He took her hand and said, "An'an, didn't you agree to go to the Royal Garden for a walk? Come back alone to accompany you there."

"But."

Mu An'an subconsciously looked at Ling Xiao'er, and Ling Xiao'er was startled. She quickly said, "Ma'am, it's getting late now, and it's time for the girl to go back."

Hearing this, Su Jing felt that the woman had some winks in her heart.

Before Mu An'an could speak, Su Jing had already made a decision, "Azhu, you send this girl out of the palace first."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Saying that, A Zhu took Ling Xiao'er out of the palace.

Mu Anan: "."

Don't need to say anything if it's her?
But with Su Jing by her side, as long as Mu An'an obeyed his words, she showed a helpless face and said indulgently, "Forget it, since you want to go to the Royal Garden, then I can only go with you."

Su Jing was amused by her and couldn't help laughing.

He stretched out his hand, gently rubbed her head, and suddenly lowered his eyes, his gentle eyes fell on her body, and said, "Are they making a fuss today?"

"Have."

As soon as this was mentioned, the expression on Mu An'an's face became more and more gentle. She raised her eyes and stared at Su Jing with a light smile on her lips, and said softly: "Although they are very noisy, However, the strength is not strong, and I can still bear it, but I think they seem to be eager to come out."

"how come?"

Su Jing's expression suddenly became tense, and he said in a worried tone: "An'an, but it's only five months now."
