Chapter 948: There is fatherly love, but not much!

Chapter 948 There is fatherly love, but not much!

But she felt heartbroken when she thought about the long nights and hardships her husband had endured.

There is no genius in the world, he is just calm in front of others and hard working behind others.

All harvests are the result of sweat and tears!

Fortunately, fortunately, everything is worth it!

That night, almost everyone in the family, young and old, got very drunk.

I can't help but feel a little regretful, even though the old lady and others are not here, the joy is still a bit short.

In the inner courtyard of the palace, the third princess who was about to go to bed actually hurriedly picked her up.

You know, since she moved here, her father has never set foot here. This is the first time.

She was so happy that she was busy preparing tea and snacks.

The emperor sat down, glanced at the layout of the room, and nodded lightly.

The entire room is decorated with a luxurious atmosphere that reflects the royal wealth, but the occasional vases or some elegant little things bring out a bit of girlish liveliness and beauty.

"Songzhi, your house is well organized. Didn't you take a fancy to the jade bonsai ornament last time? Let Manager Yi find it for you tomorrow!"

“Thank you, Father!” The third princess was so happy, her eyes were wide with smiles, which made the emperor feel much better.

He took his daughter to sit across from her and asked her carefully about her daily life, food, clothing, housing and transportation.

The third princess was flattered and answered in detail.

She has lived with Jiayin for so long and has been greatly influenced by her, so she cannot avoid saying anything about Jiayin.

The emperor nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and finally sighed, "I really did not do anything wrong in letting Fu Niu'er enter the palace. You have a playmate who is more cheerful and sensible than before."

The third princess' nose felt sore when she heard this, and she whispered, "In the past, my daughter was not sensible, so her father had to worry about it."

The emperor was very pleased and shook his head to comfort his daughter, "You are my daughter. As a father, how can you not worry about your children? Fortunately, you have a very good nature, but you have not been taught well before.

“Fu Niu’er has a low background and has endured hardships since she was a child, so she is smarter and more understanding than ordinary children. If you spend more time with her, you will definitely learn a lot.

“That girl is soft-spoken. If you use your status to oppress her, she will definitely be unhappy. But if you are nice to her, she will definitely pay you back tenfold.

“Once you are recognized by her as one of her own, if something happens in the future, she will go all out to help you and protect you.

“Perhaps you don’t believe it, but sometimes my father feels that this girl is a bit unclear...”

The third princess did not expect that her father would have such a high opinion of Jiayin. She stared in surprise and retorted, "Father, Jiayin is very good. You have never concealed anything or plotted against me..."

The emperor smiled helplessly, waved his hands, and mentioned another topic, "I went to the palace examination today, are there any students you like? You are almost old, it's time to get engaged. If there is anyone you like, please tell me about it." ”

The third princess lowered her head when she thought of someone smiling so gently, her neck and face quickly turning red.

The emperor raised his eyebrows, stroked the corners of his bright yellow dragon robe, and asked with a smile, "Tell me, father, whose family's brat made my princess attracted?"

The third princess hesitated for a while and finally said a few words.

“Father, when I went out to play with Jiayin, I met Prince Lu once or twice. I saw him again today at the palace examination, and I thought... he was pretty good.”

Lu Shizi?

The emperor was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up and he asked, "You mean, Lu Zong?"

The third princess nodded shyly, "Back to my father, he is Prince Lu Zong. He gets along well with Jiayin's eldest brother, both of whom are studying in the academy. The Li family is well-behaved and can make good friends with the Li family. My daughter thinks about Prince Lu's character. It shouldn’t be bad either.”

The emperor picked up the tea cup and took a sip, taking the opportunity to hide the complexity in his expression.

Actually, Lu Zong was indeed on his list of consorts, and he ranked first.

Originally, because Lu Zong was much older than his daughter, he was still thinking about how to persuade his daughter.

But now that his daughter really liked Lu Zong, he hesitated a little. My daughter met Lu Zong through the Li family. Was it a coincidence or was it arranged by the Li family?

Is there really such a coincidence in the world?

The third princess followed the good news and battled wits and courage with the Queen Mother for so long. She was no longer the arrogant and ignorant person she was before.

She didn't seem to notice that her father's expression changed, and continued to hold the handkerchief in her hand and said, "My daughter knows that her father has been working hard to regain Jiangbei, and is also worried about problems on the southwest border.

“As a princess, my daughter has lived in fine clothes and lived well for more than ten years. She should share the worries of her father and do her best for Tianwu.

"If my daughter marries Prince Lu, and Prince Lu is the only son of the Lu family, in the future, as long as the daughter gives birth to a grandson of the Lu family, then twenty years from now, it will be our royal blood who will be guarding the southwest border, and my father will never be the same again. Don’t bother with that.”

The emperor did not expect his daughter to be so enlightened, and was very pleasantly surprised.

He also had this consideration in mind before putting Lu Zong at the top of the list.

“Songzhi, my father is very pleased that you have such an idea. As Princess Tianwu, this is what you should do. My father’s love for you has not been in vain!”

The third princess was very excited, pursed her lips and smiled, and added, "Of course, father, Prince Lu is handsome and handsome, and his smile is gentle. My daughter likes it very much. My daughter can find a husband she likes and can help her." The father is relieved of his worries, and the daughter is also very happy."

The emperor patted his daughter on the shoulder and nodded repeatedly.

But he didn't respond straight away. He just said, "Father knows what you think, but you are not old yet. Father still wants to stay longer, so this matter can wait."

The third princess seemed a little reluctant, but nodded shyly.

After sitting for a while, the emperor got up and left.

The third princess walked all the way to the gate of Zhilan Palace. Seeing her father's chariot walking away, she still refused to close the door.

Caiyun couldn't help it, so she stepped forward and whispered, "Princess, the night wind is cold, so you'd better go back and rest early."

The third princess sighed, put away the complexity in her expression, and nodded lightly.

The emperor loved her, but his love... wasn't much.

Compared to the country and the power, she has no chance of winning.

His father seemed to believe her words about being devoted to the country, but in fact he still did not dispel his doubts, and might even want to investigate Prince Lu and the Li family.

She was already very careful, but she still caused trouble for the Li family.

She bit her lip. It was a luxury for a royal person to want to be happy, but she couldn't help but want to try...

On the roof of the main hall of Zhilan Palace, at this time, a black shadow suddenly appeared, twisted a few times, and soon disappeared.

Jiayin held a glass of milk and flipped through her private treasury book while drinking, intending to find something good as a gift for her brother.

Although she is a few years older than the third princess, it is normal for her to have a slight height difference.

But every time I walk next to the third princess, she always looks like a dwarf, which feels really bad.

So, she added a glass of milk before going to bed, looking forward to running around again.

Shui Ling and Shui Yun were sitting on one side doing needlework. Shui Ling was impatient and would be slapped on the back of his hand by Shui Yun from time to time because of roughness, making faces with his teeth bared.

Shui Ling simply threw away the purse in her hand and turned to ask her master, "Miss, what's the matter with the emperor coming to Zhilan Palace to see the third princess so late? Aren't you curious?"

Making up the missed draft on New Year's Day, the next chapter will be updated today. Hugs, come on!
