Chapter 1713: Really Asking for Tea Leaves!

Therefore, he had to train the Crown Prince as soon as possible. In another year or two, he would announce his abdication, and the Crown Prince would take the throne. He wanted to live a few years of peace in Taoyuan Village. He knew Lin Yuelan very well. She had always wanted a peaceful and peaceful

She had no choice but to be caught in the vortex of power in the capital. After everything was settled, she left the capital and stayed in Taoyuan Village peacefully.

Thinking of this, the Emperor smiled and said,” You little girl, do you think I don’t understand you? You only wanted to live your days in the fields. Why would you dream of being an empress?” When he said this, there was a sense of regret.

If Lin Yuelan was willing to be the Empress, then he didn’t need to make any agreements with her. He could just give her the position of Empress and marry her to the future monarch. That would be the end of everything. How great would that be? He didn’t even need to force her to be the princess of the country.

He knew very well that if it wasn’t for Jiang Zhennan, Lin Yuelan might not even be willing to step into the capital. Needless to say, she would never step into this cage-like palace.

There were two meanings to the empress dream he was talking about-one was that Lin Yuelan had the intention to become the empress, and the other was that it was rumoured that Lin Yuelan would become the empress.

At this point, he added sharply, “But if you want to be the Empress, I have to worry.”

If Lin Yuelan had the dream of becoming the empress, then he, the emperor, would become a thorn in her eyes.

Firstly, it was impossible for him to marry Lin Yuelan as his empress. Therefore, she could only choose his descendants as her empress.

Secondly, although he was still young, he did not want to die early. No one knew how many years he could be the emperor. However, if Lin Yuelan were eager to become the empress, then with Lin Yuelan’s ability, it would be a piece of cake for her to kill him.Findd new stories at novelhall.com

Therefore, what he said was not without reason.

Lin Yuelan pursed her lips and said,” That’s enough, old emperor. There was no need to care about these rumours. I came here to ask for the Dian River Da Hong Pao tea leaves!”

The Emperor was stunned at first, but then he burst into laughter. He asked,” Girl, could it be that you came to the palace this time for my Dian River Da Hong Pao?”

“Of course!” Lin Yuelan nodded her head matter-of-factly and said,” When I returned to the General’s Estate, the tea tasted pretty good. I heard from the butler that you gave the tea leaves as a reward. It’s just that there wasn’t much of it, so I came to the palace to ask for it.”

At this point, Lin Yuelan asked suspiciously,” Old Emperor, you can’t be so stingy that you’re unwilling to give it to me, right?”

“You little girl!” The Emperor took a folding fan from the side and lightly knocked Lin Yuelan’s head.” You only know how to ask for good things from me!”

Looking at the thing in his hand, she recognized it at a glance. It was the Dian River Da Hong Pao that Lord Yun Nan had offered as a tribute.

However, she heard that this thing was very precious. It was only about half a catty in total. Even His Majesty was not willing to drink it.

But now, Eunuch Zhang seemed to have taken it out all of a sudden. She was a little puzzled.

At the same time, she had a guess in her heart. She had heard that the Great General and Princess Gu had entered the Imperial Palace and should be in the royal study now. Eunuch Zhang had gone to the Emperor’s treasury to take out these Dian River Da Hong Pao. He must have wanted to give them a drink.

At the thought of this, the Crown Princess felt a faint sense of jealousy in her heart. In addition, Lin Yuelan once treated her only sister in such a way that she felt even more resentful.

Not long ago, there was a rumour that Lin Yuelan was wearing the empress’s wedding dress. This had touched the bottom line of her heart.

Because it would endanger her position as the empress. How could she allow this?

This time, she had received news that Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan had rushed to the palace. That was why she had decided to come over to inquire about the news.

She didn’t expect to run into Eunuch Zhang, who was going to fetch the tea leaves.

Eunuch Zhang said,” This is the tea that His Majesty asked this old servant to obtain. His Majesty is still waiting in the royal study. Crown Princess Consort, this old servant will take his leave first!” With that, he left with the tea leaves.

The Crown Princess looked at Eunuch Zhangs back, her hands tightly clenched into fists, and a trace of hatred flashed in her eyes.

She comforted herself in her heart,” I have to endure it for now!”

Returning to Eunuch Zhang in the royal study, the Emperor asked,” Eunuch

Zhang, why did you take so long?”

Eunuch Zhang replied,” Your Majesty, this old servant met the Crown Princess Consort on the way!’

“Oh, I see!” The Emperor didn’t ask further and only said to Lin Yuelan,” Girl, these tea leaves are only so little. Take it!” The Emperor said with a pained expression.

Lin Yuelan took it without hesitation and said,” Thank you, old emperor!”
