On the second day of the first lunar month, Chu Huanyan returned to Ning'an Hou Mansion.

Of course, it is under the condition of "taking care of the whole family"!

Xiao Jinzhi held his daughter in his arms and walked into the backyard of Ning'an Hou Mansion with a victorious look on his face.

The servants of the Hou Mansion were already used to this.

Although the courtiers were a little helpless after hearing this, no one wanted to die and went to Ning'an Marquis Mansion to make any remonstrances on this New Year's Day.

not to mention……

It’s a New Year’s break!

The court has not started yet. After last year's war, it has finally calmed down. Wouldn't it be nice to spend the New Year at home peacefully with his wife in his arms? It would be a fool to go and get into trouble with the emperor at this time.

Maybe even the courtiers didn't realize it, but unconsciously, they had accepted a lot of the way the emperor and empress got along.

As time passed, the servants in Ning'anhou's mansion liked Xiao Yining very much.

I don’t know if it’s because he was a crybaby when he was rejected by his father. Now Xiao Yining giggles at every turn, which is very pleasing to people. He has lost the look of crying at the top of his lungs at every turn.

On the seventh day of the first lunar month, when Pei Zhaoqing and Liu Zhaoran came to visit the Marquis of Ning'an Mansion, they were so fond of seeing Xiao Yining.

"Of course, we will also have daughters in the future!" Pei Zhaoqing said to Liu Zhaoran excitedly.

Then...he received a big eye roll from the other party.

"Who wants to have a child with you? I haven't forgiven you yet."

I came here with Pei Zhaoqing today just because the other party deliberately hid outside the Prime Minister's Mansion and saw the right opportunity and insisted on joining her.

Chu Huanyan had just finished reading the backlog of account books in the past few days. Seeing this, she was a little curious that Liu Zhaoran and Pei Zhaoqing had not yet reconciled.

So he gave Xiao Jinzhi a wink, and the latter immediately called Pei Zhaoqing aside, leaving only Liu Zhaoran and Chu Huanyan talking.

"I heard before that you two have reconciled and your engagement has not been terminated. What's going on now?"

"Who said we were reconciled? Those were all rumors. I don't want to forgive him so easily." Liu Zhaoran snorted, looking a little angry.

Chu Huanyan became more and more curious, "Didn't you decide before Pei Zhaoqing came back that you would wait for him no matter what? Now that he is back safely, why haven't you forgiven him yet?"

Liu Zhaoran looked at Chu Huanyan and slowly exhaled after a while.

"Empress, I feel unhappy. Of course I am happy that Pei Zhaoqing can come back safely, but you don't know that when he came back, he did not go to the Prime Minister's Mansion immediately, nor did he find me immediately. He just had someone send a letter saying that although he I’m back safely, but if I want to terminate the engagement, he is willing to agree!”

When she saw the letter, she was so angry that she even thought about whether Pei Zhaoqing had already thought about breaking off the engagement before. Regardless of whether he went to the battlefield or not, the other party no longer wanted to marry her.

But later she found out that it was because according to the rules, Pei Zhaoqing had to observe mourning for his father for three years. He was worried that waiting another three years would waste his years, so he proposed to terminate the engagement.

"It's only three years. There's nothing I can't wait for. When he was on the battlefield and his life and death were uncertain, I never thought about giving up, let alone now that he's back safely. But as for him, not only does he not understand me at all He didn’t even have the courage to speak out about it in front of me, so how could I not be angry.”

Liu Zhaoran clutched the tea cup in her hand. Although the incident had passed, she still felt very angry when she mentioned it now.

"It is indeed irritating." Chu Huanyan nodded, looked at Liu Zhaoran's appearance, and then said with a smile, "Since he is so irritating, why don't I ask the emperor to issue an order to directly abolish the relationship between the two of you? How about the engagement?"

"No..." Liu Zhaoran subconsciously wanted to object, but when he met Chu Huanyan's smiling eyes, he immediately blushed again, "Mother, you are teasing me again!"

"Ha, so actually you are still unwilling to give up this engagement." Chu Huanyan said with a smile.

"Of course I don't want to. I really like him, but my dear, two people will always encounter many things when they are together. You can't just think about giving up or retreating when you encounter something. If you don't let him go this time, He is really aware of his problem and remembers it well, so next time, next time, I'm afraid he will still be like this."

Therefore, although Pei kept saying that he knew he was wrong, and came to the Prime Minister's Mansion to apologize again and again, and even his father had forgiven him, she still didn't want to let this matter go so easily. She had to Let Pei Zhaoqing have a long memory!

"What you said makes sense. Then this time, let him know his mistake and admit it." Chu Huanyan reached out and took the teacup that Liu Zhaoran had been holding in her hand, then picked up the teapot next to her and poured her a cup of tea. , "However, since it is to let Pei Zhaoqing know his mistake, you should not make yourself angry here. Otherwise, you will suffer a lot."

Naturally, outsiders don't need to worry about the relationship between Pei Zhaoqing and Liu Zhaoran. Their intentions are clear and they will get together sooner or later.

Liu Zhaoran breathed a sigh of relief again and took the teacup handed over by Chu Huanyan, "Your Majesty is right, I can't make myself angry for no reason."

As he said that, Liu Zhaoran turned around and looked around, only to realize that Xiao Jinzhi and Pei Zhaoqing had gone somewhere, and they were nowhere to be seen.

"Your Majesty, where have they gone?"

Chu Huanyan just picked up the tea cup and was about to drink tea. When she heard Liu Zhaoran's words, she was suddenly stunned.

"I forgot one thing..."

"What's the matter?" Liu Zhaoran asked.

Chu Huanyan put down the tea cup in her hand, turned around and looked around, and finally her eyes fell on the corner of the corridor.

"I have forgotten that our Emperor loves to eavesdrop!"

At this moment, around the corner, Pei Zhaoqing was hiding nervously behind the wall. When he heard this, he immediately turned to look at Xiao Jinzhi next to him.

However, His Majesty the Emperor did not panic at all when his "hobby" was exposed. He leaned against the wall leisurely and shook his head with emotion.

"I didn't get a good harvest today. I didn't even hear Yan Yan say she loves me."

Pei Zhaoqing: "..."

Before Pei Zhaoqing could speak, Xiao Jinzhi spoke again, the smile on his lips became brighter, and his peach blossom eyes were full of love, as if they were filled with spring light.

"But it's okay. Yan Yan and I have a long life ahead of us."

At this time, the wind passed through the back garden and Chu Huanyan's voice came again.

"Xiao Jinzhi, come out. Also, I love you."
