"En ~" The Shi Jinchen gave a stuffy snort, which attracted the attention of the Emperor and the Shi Jinhan.
The emperor asked with concern, "Jinchen, what's wrong?" In truth, the emperor was still quite concerned about Shi Jinchen. It was only because the two of them had incompatible personalities, one was too stubborn, and the other one had a long term high position, so he didn't know how to lower his head and not lower it, leading to the current situation.
Shi Jinchen used his left hand to quietly rub his calf, thinking: This Xiao Sui attack, no, this leg is really ruthless. It hurts.
"royal father, I'm fine. I just wanted to toast you. To you, for your longevity and health. " Shi Jinchen raised his wine cup helplessly as his eyes flashed attack due to Ke Yuehua.
The emperor was a little shocked in his heart. He didn't think that Fourth Bro would take the initiative to toast him. The emperor showed his father a benevolent smile. "Good, good. This year's Jin Chen has made great progress. If only he could change his stubborn temper."
Not only was the emperor shocked, even his Shi Jinhan had taken the initiative to toast to the emperor. Based on his opinion of the emperor, how could this be? But when Shi Jinhan saw the Ke Yuehua that stood behind the Shi Jinchen, he immediately understood after thinking about the actions of the two of them just now.
Shi Jinhan stared at Ke Yuehua for a while, and did not wait for Ke Yuehua to look back.
"royal father, this is my temperament. If it's changed, it won't be me anymore." Shi Jinchen retorted in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.
When the Emperor heard this, not only did he not get angry, he was actually very happy. This was because when Shi Jinchen was speaking to him like this, he truly treated him as his father, and not as a king.
This night's abnormal Shi Jinhan and Shi Jinchen did not clash with each other, but had the harmonious atmosphere of brotherly and sisterly brotherly respect. In the midst of their bickering, what they heard were the laughter of a father and two sons, and their voices.
But how long could such harmony last? Ke Yuehua watched as the Shi Jinchen in front of him revealed a rare smile in front of an outsider.
"Your son respectfully sends you off with royal father." Shi Jinchen looked at the distant holy carriage and respectfully bowed to bid his farewells. Behind him were the servants of the manor who were bowing and greeting him.
"Fourth brother, I'm leaving too." After Shi Jinhan left the emperor, they also bid farewell and prepared to leave.
Shi Jinchen said calmly: "Brother, take care."
Before Shi Jinhan left, as expected, he once again asked about Ke Yuehua, and smilingly said, "Xiao Sui, do you want to come with me to the crown prince's mansion to play for a few days?"
A crack appeared on Shi Jinchen's expressionless face: "Stop dreaming, Xiao Sui is mine, she won't follow you." The respectful scene from before had turned into a cloud of smoke, no longer present.
Shi Jinhan laughed out loud: Oh Jinchen, Jinchen, I asked if it was Miss Xiao Sui, what's with your answer?
"Crown Prince, it's not good for you to rob my people in front of me right?" Shi Jinchen avoided speaking about the question about Shi Jinhan, and asked back.
Ke Yuehua stepped forward, and helplessly said to Shi Jinhan: "Crown Prince, this humble one thanks Crown Prince for its pity, but this humble one does not seem to have left the Fourth Prince. Please forgive me, and please do not continue to argue with the Fourth Prince because of this humble one, this humble one is truly unable to bear it."
Shi Jinhan had not given up, but seeing the firm attitude of his Ke Yuehua, he was prepared to retreat in order to advance, so he could slowly plan for the future.
"Since that's the case, let's follow Miss Xiao Sui's intentions." Shi Jinhan turned and left.
Ke Yuehua bent his leg slightly, bowing and bidding Shi Jinhan farewell.
Shi Jinchen immediately pulled Ke Yuehua up, and looked at Shi Jinhan in loathing: "This guy really doesn't give up on evil intentions, and always thinks about snatching you from me. How hateful."
Ke Yuehua patted Shi Jinchen's arm, and said while laughing: "Alright, everyone is watching, go in."
The corner of his mouth that had been pouted out by Shi Jinchen finally dropped down, "Xiao Sui, you kicked me just now." The Shi Jinchen grumbled in dissatisfaction, wanting to try again to coax him.
Ke Yuehua looked at the Shi Jinchen in front of his eyes, and felt more and more that he was acting like a small dog. I'm used to your stinking habits.
Ke Yuehua ignored Shi Jinchen and directly walked into the gates of the Duke Palaces.
The Shi Jinchen behind him saw that Ke Yuehua was not paying attention to him, and also could not get up haughtily. They could only obediently walk forward, hold Ke Yuehua's hand, and walk towards the vine garden.
The servants outside the gates of the manor could not help but laugh. It was a great pleasure to see the always stern prince humiliated. It seems that the Duke's Mansion will have a new mistress soon. It's great, it's our fortune that Miss Xiao Sui is the princess consort. She's good-looking, she's kind, and staying behind is also good.
Shi Jinchen held onto Ke Yuehua's hand as they strolled leisurely within the Duke's Palace, enjoying the night scenery of the Duke's Palace along the way. Even if no one spoke, it was still very good. He really wanted to continue walking like this. Shi Jinchen thought.
However, no one had the ability to predict what would happen in the future.
When he walked into the vine garden, Shi Jinchen was annoyed that he did not circle around a few more times. It had arrived so quickly, and time spent with Xiao Sui was always so enjoyable, but it passed by so quickly as well.
Ke Yuehua walked to the door of his own room, and said to Shi Jinchen: "I'm going in, you go to sleep early as well.
Shi Jinchen was very happy. Xiao Sui was concerned about him, and it was one step closer than before.
Shi Jinchen unwillingly let go of the hand that was holding Ke Yuehua, "You go in first, I'll only leave after seeing you go in."
Ke Yuehua pushed the door gently open. After entering, under the gaze of Shi Jinchen, he slowly closed the door. The moment the door closed, Shi Jinchen's eyes seemed to have been cut open.
Shi Jinchen stood for a few minutes, then returned to his own bedroom.
It was night, and there was no sound at all. A crescent moon hung in the pitch-black night sky, filling the sky with stars. The only sound in the Garden of Vines was the sound of the patrolling footsteps of the guards at night in the distance.
Shi Jinchen that should have been asleep was currently tossing and turning, making it difficult for her to fall asleep.
What kind of feeling does Xiao Sui have towards me? He probably likes me. Shi Jinchen who fought evenly with the crown prince in the imperial court was not that confident. That's right, who could really be calm after falling in love? This was all just a whiff of fun.
In the western room on the right side of the main hall, Ke Yuehua was also staring at the ceiling with widened eyes as if he was thinking about something.
Shi Jinchen, where should I go? I did not expect that I would fall in love with you. Aren't I a cold-blooded and ruthless woman? How could I have fallen in love with you? How could that be? However, everything happened in an unbelievable manner.
No matter how heartless a person was, it would be hard for them not to fall in love with a man who could pour everything he had for you, make you laugh, and contain your little temper.
Furthermore, since she was young, she had never felt the warmth of family, so the care and love that Shi Jinchen brought her was something she had never felt before.
