The prince dotes on his wife: a reborn peasant woman is not easy to mess with

After Xia Yechen thought for a while, he decided to recommend Ji Yan in a tactful way. He said: "Your Majesty, I think Princess Xia Jinwei is a smart, kind and brave girl."

"She should find someone equally good as a partner. I have met Ji Yan before, and he is also a smart, kind, and brave young man."

"And he also has a good impression of Princess Xia Jinwei. I think the two of them are a good match."

As soon as Xia Yechen finished speaking, the court suddenly fell into a cold state. After the emperor heard Xia Yechen's recommendation, he did not express his position directly, but was silent for a while.

He looked at Xia Yechen and said, "Xia Aiqing, did you recommend Ji Yan because he once saved Princess Xia Jinwei?"

After Xia Yechen heard the emperor's words, he couldn't help but feel surprised. He did not expect that the emperor would ask him this, so he could only nod and said: "Yes, Your Majesty."

After the emperor heard Xia Yechen's answer, he was silent for a while. He thought about how well Ji Yan and Xia Jinwei were matched, and at the same time thought of what Ji Yan's father had done.

He was a little worried that if Xia Jinwei and Ji Yan were together, Ji Yan's father would be implicated.

"I know about this matter." The emperor finally said, "I will think about it."

Xia Yechen returned to his mansion and told Zhou Xiaoyuan the news.

After hearing this, Zhou Xiaoyuan pondered for a while and said, "I think we still need to let the emperor see Ji Yan's ability, so that he can safely hand over Xia Jinwei to Ji Yan."

Xia Yechen nodded and said, "I think so too. Recently, the Canglan Kingdom sent envoys to deliver weapons, but they were intercepted on the way.

Obstructed.

The emperor has sent me to deal with this matter, and I would like to take the opportunity to recommend Ji Yan to join in this matter. "

Zhou Xiaoyuan's eyes lit up and she said, "This is a good idea. But will the emperor agree to let Ji Yan participate?"

Xia Yechen smiled and said, "This requires us to plan carefully. I want to contact the envoy first to understand the specific situation, and then recommend Ji Yan to the emperor."

"We can say that Ji Yan has many friends in the world, and he is also familiar with the situation in Canglan Country. I hope he can assist us in completing this task."

After Zhou Xiaoyuan heard Xia Yechen's plan, she felt it made sense. So she also began to work hard for Ji Yan's participation.

At court the next morning, Xia Yechen raised the issue of Canglan Kingdom's weapons shipment to the emperor and recommended Ji Yan to participate in the matter.

After listening to Xia Yechen's recommendation, the emperor frowned and said, "Isn't Prince Ji Yan already imprisoned? How can he help you?"

Xia Yechen was secretly proud. It seemed that the emperor knew Ji Yan's situation relatively well.

He took the opportunity to explain: "Your Majesty, although Prince Ji Yan is imprisoned, he has many friends in the world, and he is also familiar with the situation in Canglan Kingdom."

"If we can give him a chance to participate in this matter, I believe he will be able to help us solve this problem."

The emperor pondered for a moment and said, "This is a good idea, but how do I know if he will cause trouble?"

Xia Yechen had already thought of a countermeasure, and he said confidently: "Your Majesty, we can let Ji Yan

The prince signs a pledge. "

"I guarantee that he will do his best to complete this task. At the same time, we can also send someone to supervise his actions to ensure that he will not do anything detrimental to us."

The emperor looked at Xia Yechen and Prince Ji Yan, a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes. He knew that these two men were his capable men, and their ability and loyalty were beyond doubt.

However, he also understood that this matter might not have been resolved so smoothly without Ji Yan's participation.

"Okay." The emperor finally said, "I can agree to release Ji Yan, but he must promise not to make the same mistake again."

Xia Yechen was overjoyed. He knew that this time they finally had the chance to let Ji Yan and Xia Jinwei be together.

He immediately responded: "Your Majesty is aware that Prince Ji Yan will do his best to live up to His Majesty's expectations."

Ji Yan also knelt down to thank him, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes. He knew that this was what he had to do in order to be with the one he loved.

After getting the emperor's consent, Prince Ji Yan immediately started his action. He knew that the most important thing now was to find the seized weapons and ensure their safety.

He used his influence in the world and Xia Yechen's help to start a secret investigation.

After some setbacks, they finally found the seized weapons. It turned out that these weapons were hidden in a cave and guarded by a group of bandits.

Prince Ji Yan and Xia Yechen, with a group of loyal soldiers, acted quickly to capture all the bandits and successfully

The weapons were transported back to the capital.

When the emperor saw these weapons, he was very happy. He knew that the successful resolution of this matter was inseparable from the efforts of Xia Yechen and Ji Yan. He decided to reward both of them well.

"Xia Aiqing, of course I will never forget your contribution this time." The emperor said to Xia Yechen, "I will give you a promotion and a title, and reward you with a lot of gold and silver."

Xia Yechen was secretly happy, but he knew that the success of this matter was inseparable from the help of Prince Ji Yan.

So he said: "Your Majesty, the credit this time does not belong to me alone. Without the help of Prince Ji Yan, we would not have been able to solve this matter so smoothly."

Ji Yan wanted to explain, but when he saw Xia Yechen's serious look, he immediately fell silent.

He knew that Xia Yechen deliberately concealed the emperor's intentions for the sake of his and Xia Jinwei's future.

He didn't want to let down Xia Yechen's kindness, but he also wanted Xia Jinwei to see his sincerity and courage.

The emperor promoted Ji Yan to an official position and expressed his trust in him and his intention to promote him.

Ji Yan was filled with gratitude. He knew that this was the result of his own efforts and Xia Yechen's help. He decided to work harder and live up to the emperor's expectations.

When the emperor was thinking about Xia Jinwei's marriage, he couldn't help but feel a little conflicted. He knew that Ji Yan had deep feelings for Xia Jinwei, but he also knew that Xia Jinwei's future could not rely on just one man.

He needs a more capable and responsible man to protect her.

Ji Yan saw the emperor's hesitation and knew that he

Your opportunity has come. He decided to put his future and destiny on the line and take a chance on Xia Jinwei.

He knelt in front of the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I have always had a crush on Princess Xia Jinwei for a long time. This incident has also made me more determined in my opinion."

"I am willing to spend my whole life to protect Princess Xia Jinwei and prevent her from being harmed."
