Chapter 320 Princess Yan
Before Luo Xiaoran could finish her words, she was interrupted by Concubine Bai who came rushing over.
Chen Ji glanced outside and saw Wei Lin, hiding in the road where Concubine Bai came from, and nodded at him.
Chen Ji withdrew his gaze and looked at Luo Xiaoran.
He asked Wei Lin to pass the news to Concubine Bai, but unexpectedly, the person arrived at the right time.
"Your Majesty~~"
Concubine Bai touched her belly and moved closer to Emperor Tianqi, her voice sweet and innocent.
"I heard that Princess Qingyi wants to take Luo Xiaoran with her, how can this be allowed?
Not to mention that Luo Xiaoran was of low status and unfit to be a maid, she was also there when the bamboo green snake jumped out!
No matter how I think about it, I feel that Luo Xiaoran is evil. This person is really ominous!"
Luo Xiaoran: ...@! ~￥%&* I can bear it!
Emperor Tianqi's tone sank:
"I have already made a decision on the matter of the poisonous snake. Are you questioning me, Concubine?"
Concubine Bai could never have imagined that Emperor Tianqi would actually offend her for Luo Xiaoran, and she was stunned for a moment.
"Chen and concubine dare not!"
But she was not stupid. She knew that thunder, lightning, rain and dew were all grace from the emperor. She immediately knelt down without caring about her own body.
"Get up!"
The thing that Emperor Tianqi liked most about Concubine Bai was that she would always obey his wishes at the first opportunity without any hesitation.
Concubine Bai stood up from the ground obediently, and did not say a word about Luo Xiaoran's affairs anymore, and left directly.
Emperor Tianqi did not take this little episode to heart, but shifted his gaze to Luo Xiaoran, signaling her to continue giving the answer.
Luo Xiaoran became a little wary of Concubine Bai's disturbance.
Concubine Bai came to stop her from agreeing to go to the capital together, but Emperor Tianqi's attitude was very strange. Although he was talking about the poisonous snake, Luo Xiaoran always felt that Emperor Tianqi wanted her to agree to this.
Luo Xiaoran looked at Emperor Tianqi steadily, analyzing rapidly in her mind.
She was just a girl from a small mountain village. How could the emperor ask her whether she could be the eldest princess' maid?
Now that I think about it, this is just so weird.
Luo Xiaoran was self-aware and knew that she would never catch the eye of Emperor Tianqi. He must be targeting her for some other reason.
Luo Xiaoran glanced at Chen Ji unobtrusively and immediately knew what was going on.
Under the ginkgo tree, Chen Ji vouched for her. In the eyes of everyone, she was already in cahoots with His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan of Daliang.
As for the answer to the question just now, whether she chose yes or no, it would inevitably cause Emperor Tianqi to speculate about the King of Yan...
Emperor Tianqi was using her to test Chen Ji!
If she answered "yes", would Emperor Tianqi suspect that she was a spy sent by Chen Ji to be by Chen Lingyi's side?
Even if she kills Chen Lingyi in a covert way in the future, will Emperor Tianqi suspect her and implicate Chen Ji?
If she answered "no", not only would she lose the opportunity to get close to Chen Lingyi, but would Emperor Tianqi think that she was relying on the power of Prince Yan to look down on the emperor and the eldest princess?
But she couldn't explain to Emperor Tianqi directly that what she did had nothing to do with Chen Ji, and asked him not to associate her with Chen Ji...
"Luo Xiaoran, I'm waiting for your answer!"
Emperor Tianqi gradually lost his patience.
Luo Xiaoran gritted her teeth and simply threw the question out again.
"I will leave it to the Emperor to decide."
"Ha ha!"
Long Yan was delighted.
Luo Xiaoran still didn't dare to relax at all.
After Concubine Bai made a fuss, Luo Xiaoran's attitude changed from being impatient at the beginning to being hesitant now.
When Chen Ji saw this, he knew that Luo Xiaoran already understood that Emperor Tianqi was testing him through her.
Luo Xiaoran was afraid, afraid that any action she took would implicate him.
Thinking of this, Chen Ji felt warm in his heart.
Although he knew that Luo Xiaoran was not the only one who was afraid of implicating himself, but that she was the kind of person who did not want to implicate or drag down others, Chen Ji was still very happy in his heart.
He has been gradually attracted to Luo Xiaoran, and no matter how small the gesture of Luo Xiaoran's concern for him is, it makes his heart leap with joy.
This feeling is so strange, as if it carries some kind of danger.
But Chen Ji enjoyed it very much.
Emperor Tianqi's eyes moved between Chen Ji and Luo Xiaoran. He always felt that there was an inexplicable relationship between him, the cold-faced uncle, and Luo Xiaoran, which made him want to - test!
"In my opinion, the princess could have decided on her own if she wanted to take Luo Xiaoran as her maid, but she chose to bring the matter to me. I'm afraid she was worried that the emperor's uncle would be unhappy because he had supported Luo Xiaoran twice before, so she wanted to borrow my power.
Uncle, it was my sister who first mentioned this to me, then you said that Luo Xiaoran should make the decision herself, and now Luo Xiaoran wants me to make the decision for her. After all these twists and turns, it all depends on my opinion in the end!"
Emperor Tianqi raised the corner of his mouth and looked at Chen Ji with his dark eyes, hinting at something.
Chen Ji, standing with his hands behind his back, clenched his fists. Is Emperor Tianqi determined to take Luo Xiaoran with him and drag her into the court disputes?
Luo Xiaoran also heard the ill intention in Emperor Tianqi's words. She felt a dull stuffiness in her chest and a throbbing pain in her temples.
Emperor Tianqi really wanted to use her to coerce Chen Ji, his method was nothing short of shameless!
On the one hand, she was angry that she was being used as a bargaining chip, but on the other hand, she felt sorry for Chen Ji.
Even though I am not a person who has a very close relationship with Chen Ji, I can't wait to be used as a bargaining chip to threaten him. How afraid of Chen Ji these people are and how much they want to control Chen Ji!
"Luo Xiaoran, I order you now..."
"emperor!"
There are not many people in this world who dare to interrupt the emperor, and Prince of Yan Chen Ji is one of them.
"I have something to report!"
The veins on Emperor Tianqi's forehead twitched. After taking a deep breath, he slowly spoke:
"This isn't the imperial court. Uncle, feel free to say whatever you want to say. There's no need to be so formal!"
Chen Ji looked at Luo Xiaoran deeply and clenched his fists even tighter.
"This is what should be done when it comes to Princess Yan."
what?
Princess Yan?
Emperor Tianqi's pupils shrank sharply. Could it be...
"I wish to marry Luo Xiaoran as the Princess of Yan, and I am making this request!"
What?
Luo Xiaoran was stunned. If the one present was not the emperor and the other was not the prince, she would have picked her ears without caring about her image, suspecting that she had heard it wrongly.
Is Chen Ji crazy?
Princess Yan? She? !!!
The Prince of Yan had a serious look on his face, but the future Princess of Yan whom he mentioned seemed to be struck by lightning - she was shocked.
Interesting, so much fun!
Emperor Tianqi narrowed his eyes slightly.
According to the system of Daliang, a prince could only marry a relative who granted him the marriage.
The only nominal relative of his uncle was the Grand Empress Dowager, but the Prince of Yan not only did not ask the Grand Empress Dowager to grant him a marriage, but instead he asked him, the emperor. It really was... he didn't take the old woman in the palace seriously at all.
Emperor Tianqi couldn't suppress the smile on his face.
He really came to the right place in the North!
