Chapter 335 Little Fool
Even after seeing it, Madam Ma was still unwilling to give up and even wanted to touch it to see if it was real or fake.
Having already achieved her goal of showing off, Li Huanyan's mother-in-law was unwilling to let her touch her grandson.
They immediately had her thrown out.
Lin Liuyi was happy for Li Huanyan after learning that she had successfully given birth, as Li Huanyan looked really good now.
"Host, you've received another reward!" the system reminded her.
Looking at the gold ingot in his hand, Lin Liu couldn't help but sigh, "These days, the readers are quite wealthy. The rewards they give are either gold or silver."
Meanwhile, in another world, Ji Xuan was coaxing her husband.
"Yuechen, so what if we don't have children? Aren't we doing well together?"
Yuechen pushed Ji Xuan's hand away. "Your Highness, my family background is not as good as the other young masters. If I don't have a child, His Majesty will definitely bestow a husband upon you!"
Yuechen refused; he insisted on having a child with the prince so that his child could inherit the royal family.
When he was with the prince, His Majesty looked down on his status. In the end, it was only after the prince repeatedly begged His Majesty that the two were granted a marriage.
If he doesn't have children, His Majesty will inevitably assign some concubines to the prince, which would put him, the legitimate prince consort, in an awkward position.
"No, I promise you, I won't like anyone else. And I won't let Mother Empress bestow anyone else upon me!" Ji Xuan walked over and took her husband's hand.
When she returned from the war, rumors circulated in the capital that she was a female demon, with a blue face and fangs, who had killed countless people.
Whenever a child misbehaves, she uses her name to scare the child, and the child immediately becomes too frightened to cry.
So at that time, she had no reputation whatsoever.
Even after everyone saw her face, few young men were willing to approach her. Only Yuechen foolishly came to care whether she would get hurt in the battle.
At the spring gathering hosted by the Queen Mother, Ji Xuan had no interest in seeing those young men; she only wanted to go to war.
Unfortunately, she had inflicted too much damage on the Western Regions in one battle. Now that the two countries have signed a peace treaty, she has naturally been summoned back by her mother, the Queen.
Ji Xuan planned to find a big tree, bathe in the spring sunshine, and take a short nap in it. How delightful!
Unexpectedly, someone came to disturb her peaceful sleep.
"Yuechen, aren't you Prince Qinmu Ji? Why don't you go find her? Instead, you want to stay with us!"
A young man looked at Yue Chen's face with jealousy and said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, I heard the Prince is here today too! You always praise the Prince so much, you should take this opportunity to get to know him! What are you doing following us?"
The other young man instantly understood his companion's meaning. Indeed, with Yue Chen's face, what chance did they have?
"But I didn't see the prince!" Yue Chen also wanted to talk to his idol, but he hadn't even seen his idol's face.
“Oh, I think I saw the prince heading in that direction! Yes, that’s it! You should go and look for him!” The first jealous young man thought for a moment and then pointed out a direction to Yue Chen.
"Thank you, Ziyun! I'll go find the Prince right away!" Yuechen didn't think much of it; once she got the Prince's location, she immediately headed in that direction.
Ji Xuan, however, saw it clearly from the tree: this little fool had been fooled by these two.
But what does this have to do with her? Ji Xuan turned her head and continued to doze off.
However, the two people under the tree did not stop after they tricked Yue Chen away.
"Luckily, this idiot is easy to fool! I just pointed him in a random direction and got him away!"
"Exactly! If he were here, we wouldn't have had a chance. It's all because of his face; it's too alluring!"
Yuechen's face, like his name, was as aloof and serene as the moon, transcending the mortal realm.
"Hmph, so what if he's good-looking? With his father being a mere seventh-rank official, he doesn't deserve to attend a banquet with us. He's just lucky that His Majesty gave the order to enter this garden," the young man named Ziyun said disdainfully.
"That's true, but I heard the Crown Princess will be coming too!"
"You're so ignorant! Today, not only the Crown Princess and the Prince, but also the Third Princess and the Seventh Princess—all the princesses of the right age will be attending the banquet!" Ziyun showed off the information he knew.
Hmph, his father is the Left Prime Minister, so this kind of information is a piece of cake for him.
"Wow, then we have so many more opportunities!" another young man exclaimed happily.
His family background wasn't as good as Ziyun's, so he always respected Ziyun. Now that he heard that other princesses would also be coming, he was immediately happy.
He has no chance with the Crown Princess's residence.
He wouldn't even consider the prince's residence.
He felt he still had a chance to become a concubine for one of the princesses.
"Hmph, what a loser!"
"Oh dear, Ziyun, how can I compare to you! Shall we go and see where everyone is?"
The young man complimented Ziyun for a while, and then wanted to find out where the princesses were.
Don't let other suitors beat you to it! There are quite a few suitors here today!
Ziyun also thought of this matter. He was after the Crown Princess. Although he had sent Yuechen away, Shangyi from the Right Chancellor's family was also a formidable opponent for him.
Thinking of this, he became anxious. "Let's go find the others!"
Ji Xuan, perched in the tree, finally understood: these two had come for her sister.
Indeed, in terms of status, she is inferior to the Crown Princess, and in terms of personality, she is inferior to the other princesses. It is normal for these young men to take a liking to the other sisters.
Compared to this, Yuechen, who is interested in her, seems quite rare.
But like I said, she has no intention of getting married, so what business is it of hers?
Ji Xuan closed her eyes again, but after a few breaths, she opened them again.
Forget it, I'll go check on that silly little guy instead.
What if I end up crying because I can't find her in the end?
Ji Xuan jumped down from the tree and walked in the direction Yue Chen had left.
As expected, Yuechen walked further and further into remote places, and his mood gradually changed from anticipation to disappointment. It turned out that Ziyun had lied to him!
No, no, the other person might have misread it!
"Hey, you little idiot, what are you doing!"
When Ji Xuan arrived, she saw the little fool sitting in the pavilion, radiating a depressed aura.
I couldn't help myself and called out to the other person.
"Ah, it's me!" Yue Chen heard someone speak and suddenly stood up.
But when he discovered that it was the prince he wanted to see, his face immediately brightened.
"Your Highness!"
"It's me!" Ji Xuan slowly walked into the pavilion.
"Your Highness, so you really are here! Your Highness, are you tired from fighting? Have you killed many enemies? Is the scenery at the border beautiful? What do you eat when you're on the march? Your Highness, where is your legendary Rakshasa Sword? Is it very sharp? Your Highness, are there many people at the border who admire you?"
Ji Xuan never expected that this silly boy would be so outgoing.
