Meng's escape did not make the emperor retreat, but she felt a little happy. In the past, she only regarded him as a brother, but now she has realized that he is a man.
It's just that the little girl has been avoiding him, and she still hangs out with a bunch of dudes every day. Xiao Huaiyu can't bear it.
Meng Ae has always been flustered recently, especially the way her elder brother looked at her, like a hungry wolf seeing a fat and delicious little white rabbit, ready to eat... She subconsciously avoided it, and how many people in the capital were meeting her every day. A dandy went to race horses outside the city and didn't go home until dark.
The emperor had many things to do, and she thought to herself that if she didn't meet people a few times, he would probably stop coming.
That day, she waited outside until the lanterns started to light up before leading her horse back home. At the door, she quietly asked the concierge if he was here. I was immediately delighted when I got a negative answer, and happily prepared to go in.
"娨儿."
A familiar voice sounded from behind.
Meng Ao turned around stiffly and saw the emperor dressed in brocade robes standing in front of the carriage.
The lantern at the door exudes a faint light, and there is a lively noise from Yuhua Tower in the distance. The emperor's eyebrows are calm, and the eunuch stands behind him respectfully, waiting for an unknown amount of time.
"Brother..." Meng Juana.
The tall, handsome young man approached slowly step by step.
Meng Ao felt very guilty for some reason, so she couldn't help but retreat, leaning her back against the stone lion at the door, and finally couldn't help shouting: "Brother!"
Unexpectedly, Xiao Huaiyu just removed the dead grass from her hair: "She is so big, how can she be so careless? She doesn't even know there is grass on her head."
The familiar and familiar tone blocked Meng A's reprimand that was about to come out in her throat.
Xiao Huaiyu patted the girl's head and said with a smile: "You haven't eaten yet? The imperial kitchen made a few new products today. I tasted good, so I brought them to you for a while. You can try them later."
The imperial dining room, the best chefs in the world are all gathered in the palace. The new products will be delicious.
Meng A swallowed her saliva and felt even hungrier...
In this way, the concierge watched helplessly as the young lady who had just been happy because His Majesty did not come was held by His Majesty the Emperor and entered the house with a dazed look on her face.
Once the emperor is in love, he will naturally use all kinds of means and will not give up until he achieves his goal.
Meng'an has a simple temperament, how can she resist it? Not to mention, the emperor could be said to have single-handedly brought her up, and he could determine her likes and dislikes at the drop of a hat. The little girl's vigilance had just risen when she calmly suppressed it.
Meng Ao was fondled by Xiao Huaiyu, and not long after, she happily reconciled with her eldest brother.
She still went to horse racing outside the city with the dandies, often drinking and enjoying themselves, but this time she was accompanied by a female guard with a serious look on her face, and a carriage would always come to pick her up after the race.
The carriage was low-key and tightly covered with curtains. Every time Meng Ao would quickly open it and get in.
Can't see what's going on inside.
At first, the dandies thought it was the carriage of the Chief Minister's Mansion, until one day the eldest lady accidentally stepped on the carriage, and a strong arm stretched out from inside to stop her and stabilize her.
The man's fingers have clear joints, he wears a jade ring on his thumb, and his exposed side face has a smooth jawline.
They also noticed that he was wearing a golden dark-patterned robe, long boots, and a dragon-patterned jade pendant around his waist, indicating his noble status.
All the dudes were stunned, Your Majesty, Your Majesty? ?
Before they could figure out how His Majesty, with his busy schedule, had time to pick up Miss Meng every day, they saw in their father's voice that His Majesty, who was unsmiling, was worried about Miss Meng's safety. Seeing that she was fine, he smiled and just put his hand on the girl's waist. His hand never let go.
As if aware of their gazes, the emperor's sharp gaze swept over.
The faces of all the dandies turned pale and they knelt down in a hurry.
"No need to be polite."
The emperor said calmly, and then escorted Meng Ao in.
The carriage left quickly, and all the dandies dared to raise their heads. Unknowingly, they were sweating on their backs, but they didn't care about this because they had made a big discovery. His Majesty had evil intentions towards Miss Meng!
As well-known dandies in the capital, they are proficient in everything from eating, drinking and having fun.
The things between men and women are clear at a glance.
The way His Majesty looked at Miss Meng was not clear at all, and anyone with a discerning eye could see his possessiveness.
Several people were extremely excited about this discovery, but how could they discuss the emperor's affairs casually? What's more, they were worried that His Majesty would scold them if they saw them taking Meng Ao around for fun.
Everyone returned home worried, feeling that they were definitely going to die this time.
As a result, there was no movement from the palace for several days, and Meng Ao continued to play with them as usual.
What made them even more frightened was that His Majesty still came to pick up Meng Ao every day. There were even a few times when they were not finished, and His Majesty just waited there quietly without urging Meng Ao, and did not go back until she had finished playing.
Occasionally, Meng Ao got carried away playing Pai Gow, and His Majesty was there to help her peel grapes.
Peel the grapes, Your Majesty?
Their eyes almost bulged out.
But the facts are right in front of us.
They finally confirmed that His Majesty was truly obedient to Miss Meng.
And with more contact, they gradually understood that His Majesty was not afraid of them revealing his thoughts about Meng A, and he probably even wished that they would be louder.
Meng'an was extremely beautiful and had a good family background. Almost everyone knew about the relationship between the Meng Mansion and the imperial palace.
I don't know how many people in the capital are interested in her.
And how could a man want his woman to be coveted by others? Naturally, it would be better if it became a household name and no one would dare to get involved.
Several dandies felt that they had correctly guessed His Majesty's thoughts, so after returning home, they immediately spread the word.
Everyone in the capital heard the news:! ! !
A group of men were almost heartbroken because their love affair ended just like this before it even started.
The news reached Xihe's ears. She was speechless and choked. He thought that Xiao Huaiyu's move was really good. He easily crushed all his competitors to the point where they didn't dare to take the lead.
Nowadays, His Majesty is tough-minded and decisive in political affairs. Once he decides something, the ministers cannot stop him at all.
The male protagonist, who had become the Minister of Household Affairs two years ago, suddenly escaped with more than a dozen ministers in the court and rebelled in the south.
It was still under the guise of clearing his father's wrongdoing, and even spreading rumors that the current emperor was unable to conceive an heir.
At that time, the court was in a panic, and the idiot seemed to have grasped the excuse and blamed Xiao Huaiyu's delay in getting married on his inability to conceive an heir. The court scolded him for his evil intentions and clamored for him to step down and choose another New Emperor.
Xiao Huaiyu pulled the man out and beheaded him without saying a word.
"Whoever dares to confuse the public with evil words again will suffer the consequences."
The civil and military officials in the entire dynasty were as silent as cicadas, and did not dare to say a word.
Xiao Huaiyu sneered twice, stood up and left, then personally led his troops south.
It only lasted three months, and the hero's soldiers were beaten to the point where they were unable to resist and were defeated... and had no choice but to flee overseas.
Xiao Huaiyu did not let go, and continued to pursue the victory. He caught the person in the rough sea, forced him back to the capital, and beheaded him in front of all the officials, shocking countless Xiaoxiao!
After a few years, even if Xiao Huaiyu was still not married, the ministers would not dare to make trouble.
They thought to themselves, His Majesty can do whatever he likes. If that doesn't work, they can choose one from the clan. After all, other princes are like piglets, giving birth to one child after another, but they have given birth to a lot.
A few years later, when they were struggling with which prince to choose, they actually heard that His Majesty was interested in the daughter of the First Assistant!
The ministers almost cried with joy.
Your Majesty, you are about to become a queen!
The reason is that they have observed many clan disciples overtly and covertly in the past two years and found that none of them are worthy of big posts. They are all just idlers, playboys and idiots.
So they realized that the matter of succession still depends on His Majesty's genes.
Regardless of their sad and dejected son, all the ministers started to help His Majesty marry his sweetheart.
As for the fact that Meng'an is the daughter of the Chief Assistant... Even if the Meng Mansion does not produce a queen, with the current power of the Chief Assistant Mansion, they cannot shake it.
What's more, even though His Majesty is watching eagerly from the side, they don't dare to make a move.
Therefore, it is better to quickly stand up.
So before Meng Ao knew it, she was already labeled as an emperor in everyone's eyes.
Meng Ae sometimes enjoyed flowers and attended banquets with the ladies, sometimes went for an outing in the countryside together, and sometimes rode horses and paraded through the streets with the dandies... However, every time her eldest brother came to pick her up, the ladies always winked at her and covered their mouths. laugh.
"Go quickly, don't keep the eldest son waiting."
The word "Your Majesty" is not easy to promote, so everyone calls him the eldest son.
Meng Ao was helplessly pushed to the man and puffed up her face: "I am not a child anymore. You come to pick me up every day and everyone laughs at me." Then she asked, "Has the memorial been approved?"
"There are still some left. I thought it was almost over for you, so I came to pick you up first."
Xiao Huaiyu carefully helped the person get into the carriage, pretending to be fierce: "Who dares to laugh at you, tell me your name, and I will kill her nine tribes!"
Meng Juan: "..."
He waved away the man's hand and got into the carriage on his own.
Xiao Huaiyu raised the corners of his lips and followed in. Seeing that the little girl was still crossing her chest with her hands and pouting angrily, he took out the pastry from the secret compartment and coaxed her: "The imperial chef heard that you like to eat it, so he made it specially."
Meng A lowered her eyes and saw that it was steamed cheese with sugar.
Last time she was in the palace, she felt it was good and took two more bites, but she didn't expect that someone would write it down.
The young man opposite was dressed in white and had a crooked smile, but she knew what the royal chef had cooked specially for her? How could they have the courage? He clearly wrote it down himself and specifically ordered it.
She said calmly: "I won't eat it!" She was still angry.
Xiao Huaiyu then came closer and said, "Good girl, open your mouth quickly. If you don't eat, my brother will finish it."
There was a smile hidden in his mouth, as if he was coaxing a child. Meng's face turned red, angry and ashamed: "Xiao Huaiyu, I'm going to be angry if you do this again!"
"Okay, okay, it's my fault, I won't do this again."
"Now, come and open your mouth."
Meng Juan: "..."
Xiao Huaiyu held his forehead with one hand and looked at the little girl angrily eating cakes, with a smile in his eyes.
Meng Ao accidentally saw that the hand holding the snack was almost unsteady.
