A wave of comfort.

She turned around, looked at the dazzling fireworks in the sky and slowly said:

"Do you think he will be able to return today and stand vigil with me?"

Fu Hua nodded. "Of course. In order to make a wish, there will be a good development in the coming year …" No matter what, the pavilion master would always come back and stand guard with his wife. Next year … Then, we can quickly hug the little mistress! "

The corner of Su Jinruo's lips curled up even more, his eyes reflecting the endless smoke and fire blurring.

After a long time, she suddenly stopped laughing and asked in a low voice:

"If I am to finish the unfinished business that I have done today, would he be angry at me?"

Old Emperor slightly narrowed his eyes. He glanced at the Queen, and then …

Shifting his gaze to Lin Lanqin, he asked:

"I promise you that whatever you want as a reward, I will agree to it."

Lin Lanqin was startled.

Agreed to her?!

If... She wanted Shen Fan to return to the imperial court.

This was a once in a lifetime opportunity …

At this time, Shen Fan stood up, cupped his hands, and said:

"This son asks for a reward from Royal Father on behalf of Qin'er?"

Grand Commandant Lin raised an eyebrow, the empress smiled and looked at him.

Old Emperor did not hesitate.

He glanced at Shen Hancheng, who was sitting still like a mountain, and laughed gently:

"Why not? New Year's Eve is a festive night. If you want a reward, no matter..." "Whether it's for you or for your concubine, there's no harm. No harm, haha …"

Shen Fan still had the same smile on his face, as calm as ever, with the demeanor of a great general.

His demeanor was polite as he said respectfully, "Qin'er has been married into the Ninth Prince's estate for more than two years, but unfortunately … Qin'er has always been by my side. She has always been by my side, always taking care of me. With a wife like this, what else can I expect? Therefore, this son wants to ask Royal Father to raise Qin'er as his official wife in front of his stepbrother and all the ministers. This son asks that Royal Father grant his wish. "

With that, Shen Fan walked out of his seat, lifted his robe, and knelt on the ground.

What he said was extremely reasonable and sincere, and he moved many of the women who had yet to leave the pavilion.

Lin Lanqin's eyes reddened, and she knelt on the ground with him, waiting for his answer.

The empress sighed deeply, her smile gratified.

She said, "You really are two foolish children. You guys have deep feelings for each other. The Emperor is a wise king, and he's also a kind father. How could he bear to make things difficult for you? Hurry and get up."

As if he had thought of something, Shen Hancheng faintly smiled, and his eyes... It was shining with an unknown light.

He was rather lazy as he thought about it …

If he had known earlier on that he would still be singing this, he would have brought Su Jinruo along and fed him well.

Her slender fingers knocked on the table, but Shen Hancheng suddenly rejected.

He should have stayed in the Palace and let Su Jinruo fulfill their previous bet.

Bath...

He changed his clothes.

This bet, she still hadn't … He kept it steady.

Why is he so good-natured, so easy to deal with … Just let her go?!

Shen Hancheng's mind was wandering extremely fast, her lips were smiling, her brows and eyes were slightly bent.

Fortunately, before his eyes … A majority of the people's attention was on Shen Fan … The loving couple were attracted.

Otherwise, how could others look at him like that? They still couldn't be sure …

Hearing the Queen's words, all the paths of retreat for the Old Emperor were gone.

However, he continued to smile as he listened to the empress's words, and said:

"Of course. You two are good kids. Hurry and get up. Tomorrow, I will issue an imperial decree to support Qin'er."

The empress said, "Hurry up and thank the emperor."

Lin Lanqin and Shen Fan looked at each other, then kowtowed and said:

"This son thanks Royal Father for his consent."

Old Emperor's eyes were filled with love, "Get up."

Shen Fan and Lin Lanqin had once again returned to their own seats.

After they sat down, the Queen withdrew the expression in her eyes, the corners of her lips curving upwards as she spoke in an extremely dignified manner.

She looked at the only one in the hall, and didn't look at Shen Fan … The young man that the couple congratulated asked:

"Seventh Brother, why isn't your wangfei here yet?"

Hearing that, Old Emperor's face changed, and in an instant, he was back to normal.

A trace of laziness flashed past his eyes. This was exactly what Shen Hancheng had been waiting for.

Her long and delicate eyelashes slightly closed, and the corner of Shen Hancheng's mouth... With an arc of amusement, he replied:

"She is not feeling well and is recuperating in the mansion."

The empress seemed to understand.

Her smile was so nice that it didn't make anyone look at it. It made them feel bad.

"The most taboo thing for humans is your body being unwell. No matter how old you are, Seventh Brother, when you return home, you must take care of your consort and your mother. There is still a thousand year old ginseng there, and it will be sent to your house on New Year's Eve." It's a New Year gift for Jinruo. "

1000-year-old ginseng …

This is a huge sum of money...

Shen Hancheng never thought that he would reject it, hence he just expressed his gratitude.

"This King... "Please thank the Empress on behalf of This King's wife."

Old Emperor raised his eyes and glanced at Shen Hancheng.

The expression in his eyes was somewhat dark and unclear. He seemed to be quite satisfied.

The smile on the empress's lips was stiff for a second, but... A fleeting moment.

If one didn't pay close attention, others wouldn't notice.

With a faint smile, she picked up a glass of wine and took a small sip.

His calm eyes secretly hid the ripples.

He thought that he would refuse ….

The Queen gave a gentle smile and put down the wine. Just as she was about to say something, Shen Fan …

But he stood up, looked at Shen Hancheng, and asked:

"To the name of the Seventh Sister-in-law, what the Seventh Brother uses is the name of a commoner … Is it possible that the Seventh Sister-in-law comes from the people? "

With that said, everyone looked at Shen Hancheng with different expressions.

For those in the palace, marriage was the most taboo … No power, no backing, no family...

Back then …

Old Emperor asked for Shen Hancheng to marry Guan Wanwan … However, this woman from the martial arts world was different …

In the martial arts world, Guan Wanwan had a certain reputation. In addition to her unparalleled beauty, her mother's status in the martial arts world was even more prominent …

And she was also Shen Hancheng … She had some understanding of the temperament and personality of Shen Hancheng, who had grown up together with a woman.

Giving it to her as a side concubine had unknowingly added even more to Shen Hancheng … The influence of the martial arts world would also not lose face for the royal family …

It was the best of both worlds.

And …

Who wouldn't know the name of the woman that Shen Hancheng married? She was the principal wife the moment she came here, and based on the situation now …

She seemed to be … A civilian woman?

This...

The most important thing in the court... The most prestigious ministers, all of them were as smart as a person …

Even the slightest bit of change in their thoughts could instantly change their minds

With the age of the Old Emperor, the position of emperor wavered.

The Crown Prince was incompetent and brutal, let alone if he could shoulder the heavy responsibility of the entire world …

Even if there was, depending on the Crown Prince … With his current temperament, it would be difficult for them to convince him in their hearts …

Seventh Prince Shen Hancheng of Ranqi, married to Seventh Princess, New Year's Eve … He also came to the royal palace to join in on the festival.

This meant that …

He thought about Ascendant?

But...

But why did he want to marry a mortal woman?

Everyone's gaze, whether intentionally or not, landed on Shen Hancheng's body, waiting for his response.

Shen Hancheng's slender fingers... He rubbed the surface of the wine cup.

He glanced at the expressions on everyone's faces and gave a straightforward answer.

"She is a commoner, a commoner, the most outstanding woman."

No matter... The most outstanding, or the most outstanding.

As long as they were commoners, those without power or influence were useless!

This point...

Could it be that Shen Hancheng doesn't understand?!

Since ancient times, the royal family had no true feelings. It was best to make use of the person who was in need to make use of them to win back all the people's hearts …

On this point, Shen Hancheng was far inferior to him.

Everyone's eyes... Changing again and again, Shen Fan raised her beautiful eyebrows and laughed:

"I believe that this Seventh Brother definitely likes it a lot … Seventh Sister-in-law? "

Princess Xiwei, who had been watching by the side, raised her hand and took Shen Fan's words.

"Nonsense, Ninth Brother, if Seventh Brother doesn't like Seventh Sister-in-law, why would he... Marry her as a commoner?! "

"This king naturally likes this king's wife," Shen Hancheng laughed.

His gaze slowly swept across Princess Xiwei, and then landed on Shen Fan's body.

"Could it be that you married the Lin Family's eldest daughter, not because you like her, but because she is a daughter of the Grand Commandant Lin?"

Shen Fan's smile suddenly froze on the corner of her mouth.

Lin Lanqin raised her head and looked at him, within her pretty and delicate eyes, there was a glimmer of hope.

She was looking forward to his response.

Even though, at that time, it was she who had chosen to marry him, and not him who had proposed to marry her …

The betrothal between them, was … It was built on imperial power.

Available...

She clearly knew the answer, but she couldn't help it. She couldn't help it …

To daydream.

Shen Fan caressed it... Lin Lanqin's ink-black hair.

Out of the corner of his eyes, Grand Commandant Lin glanced at him before chuckling softly as he drank his wine:

"The orders of my parents and the words of the matchmaker … back then, although I didn't really like Qin'er, I had already fallen into the eyes of a beauty long ago and was unable to extricate myself …"

The corner of Su Jinruo's lips curled up even more, his eyes reflecting the endless smoke and fire blurring.

After a long time, she suddenly stopped laughing and asked in a low voice:

"If I am to finish the unfinished business that I have done today, would he be angry at me?"

After a moment of silence, Fu Hua said, "Madam thinks that after you do this, the Pavilion Master won't be angry with you?"

Su Jinruo shook his head and pursed his lips.

If she did this, Shen Hancheng would not be angry at her.

He only knows how to... to have her locked up, to restrict all her movements...

I won't give her any more freedom until... All crises were resolved.

Until...

He had ascended to the throne!

Otherwise, he would definitely not give her another chance to have any random thoughts …

But...

Su Jinruo lowered his gaze, his gaze landing on his wrist... On that thick layer of gauze, he said:

"What would you do if I did?"

"The pavilion master has already said that if Madame dares to act recklessly, I, Fu Hua, will definitely not be able to stop her.

"Madam, you can continue to mutilate yourself. The only ones who will be punished are only Gaudy …"

Su Jinruo looked at her and saw the corner of her flowery lips. A smile slowly appeared on her face, and she said:

"But, Gaudy is willing to be punished …"

A trace of astonishment flashed past Su Jinruo's eyes.

The light in her eyes became distant as she continued, "Fu Hua understands Madam, and …" Support for Madame's decision. In the past, the Pavilion Master still had a way out, but it was all because … He couldn't touch a girl, not in this life … It was possible for him to have children. The people of the royal family were at most … Normally, when he was bored, he would give the pavilion master a stumbling block, but he wouldn't take the initiative to drag the pavilion master into a circle of disputes over imperial power. But now, regardless of whether the pavilion master wanted to seize the throne, the pavilion master had already one foot in the whirlpool. There was no turning back, he could only wholeheartedly focus on … Charge forward! "

The dim yellow candlelight flickered as it was blown in by the wind from outside the window.

Su Jinruo listened quietly.
