    Princess Lekang walked aimlessly along the corridors of the palace. Thinking of what she had just overheard outside the palace, a sarcastic smile slowly appeared on her lips.

    Regarding her marriage to Xiliao, her maternal ancestral family, which was quite powerful in the court, did not raise any objection. Instead, Xiao Yeyang, a cousin who was not very close to her, stood up and spoke for her.

    No wonder the queen mother has always avoided seeing the Chiang family in these years. No wonder the queen mother often told her not to get too close to the Chiang family. It was not until today that she discovered that the Chiang family is really cold-blooded and terrifying.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    Will the father agree to the marriage proposal of the eldest prince of Xiliao?

    ¡°Princess, it¡¯s getting late, shall we go back?¡± Seeing that it was already dark, the palace maid had to remind her.

    Princess Lekang gave a faint ¡®hmm¡¯ and continued walking slowly.

    ?¡­

    The emperor did not give a clear response to Xiliao's marriage proposal. In the morning court in recent days, civil and military officials had been quarreling over this matter. Most people felt that for the sake of the stability of the northwest frontier, they should agree to the marriage.

    Yan Mansion.

    Garden pavilion.

    "Xiao Yeyang, will the emperor agree to the marriage?"

    Daohua handed the newly added and subtracted drawings to Xiao Yeyang.

    Xiao Yeyang took the drawing and looked at it, and said with a smile: "No."

    Hearing him say so definitely, Daohua was a little surprised: "Why?"

    Xiao Yeyang: "Uncle Huang is a talented and strategic emperor. Regarding border issues, he will not be like those short-sighted officials in the court who advocate marriage in exchange for a few years of stability."

    "If we want to maintain stability on the border forever, there is no point in making peace. A strong country and strong soldiers and horses are the foundation. Even I understand this, and the emperor's uncle naturally knows it."

    Daohua looked puzzled: "Then why didn't the emperor directly reject the eldest prince of Xiliao?"

    Xiao Yeyang smiled: "Xiliao's request for marriage is actually a disguised temptation."

    "If they agree directly, the people of Xiliao will feel that Daxia is also eager to maintain peace. After experiencing the war with the Tatars, they no longer have much fighting power."

    "If we decide directly, we will think that Daxia is so strong, can we still raise troops against Xiliao? This will undoubtedly arouse Xiliao's wariness against Daxia."

    "No matter which one it is, Xiliao will be asked to make corresponding arrangements."

    ¡°Now that we can prevent them from knowing our actual situation, we can take more initiative.¡±

    "Come again, the emperor's uncle must have other considerations. Princess Lekang is from the queen, and she is the queen's only daughter. The queen is from the Jiang family. This time the Jiang family has done nothing. What will the queen think? Will she still fight with the Jiang family?  A single heart?"

    The stability of the harem is also very important to the imperial uncle.

    Daohua¡¯s face suddenly revealed.

    Xiao Yeyang smiled and said: "Okay, don't talk about these things. Did you eat the fruit I sent to you yesterday?"

    Daohua suddenly laughed: "Yes, I ate it." After saying that, she turned to look at Wang Man'er, "Go and bring over a plate of the durian mousse I made in the morning."

    Xiao Yeyang looked surprised: "Are you used to eating it? Many people say that the fruit called durian smells bad."

    Daohua smiled and said, "I think it's delicious. You can try it later too."

    There was a little resistance on Xiao Yeyang's face, and he was not used to the smell of the fruit. It could be seen that Daohua looked like she wanted to share the delicious food with him, so he silently swallowed his words of rejection.

    At this moment, Yan Wenxiu, his wife and three sisters, Yan Yihuan, came over.

    "Brother, sister-in-law, second sister, third sister, fourth sister, how come you are together?"

    Daohua stood up and welcomed the people into the pavilion. Xiao Yeyang did not move. Ever since the emperor decreed the marriage, he and the Yan family did not avoid it as deliberately as before.

    Han Xinran smiled and greeted Xiao Yeyang, and then said, "We just came from my grandmother's place."

    Yan Wenxiu walked towards Xiao Yeyang, and the two stood by the pavilion talking.

    Seeing that Yan Yihuan and the three of them were all dressed up, Daohua smiled and asked, "Grandma, are there guests?"

    Han Xinran glanced at Yan Yihuan with a smile and nodded.

    Seeing Yan Yihuan blushing and lowering her head, Daohua suddenly remembered that Mrs. Li had mentioned to her two days ago that her father had fallen in love with a family and was going to tell Yan Yihuan. Could it be that that family came to visit today?

    The matter hadn¡¯t been decided yet, so Daohua didn¡¯t ask and chatted with Han Xinran about other things.

    Han Xinran: "Mother said that the Su family is going to Beijing in the next two days."

      Daohua smiled and said, "It's already July now, and October is only three months away. It's time to come to Beijing."

    Han Xinran smiled: "Our family will have many happy events this year."

    At this time, Wang Maner came over with glass mousse.

    "This is my new dessert, everyone, try it!"

    Daohua is very enthusiastic about selling desserts to everyone.

    The Yan family all know that Daohua likes to come up with new tricks from time to time, so they stuck a piece of dessert with a bamboo skewer for Mianzi.

    However, Yan Wenxiu and the others did not move their mouths when they smelled the dessert.

    ¡°Eat it!¡±

    Daohua ate a piece. Seeing that Xiao Yeyang didn't move, he quickly inserted a piece and handed it to his mouth: "Try it, it's delicious."

    Xiao Yeyang glanced at Daohua, opened his mouth and ate the dessert.

    When Yan Wenxiu and others saw it, they all looked at Xiao Yeyang inquiringly: "Is it delicious?"

    Xiao Yeyang's face was a little stiff. Under Daohua's expectant eyes, after chewing a few times and swallowing, he nodded affirmatively: "It tastes very good, everyone should try it."

    Yan Wenxiu took a small bite with the intention of giving it a try, then ran out of the pavilion impatiently and vomited on the ground.

    When Daohua saw it, she was a little speechless: "Brother, you are reacting too much." After saying that, he inserted another piece and put it in his mouth, then turned to look at Han Xinran and the others.

    After seeing Yan Wenxiu¡¯s reaction, Han Xinran didn¡¯t have the courage to try it and silently put the desserts back.

    Seeing that they didn¡¯t eat it, Daohua looked regretful: ¡°Durian is a good thing, it¡¯s a pity if you don¡¯t know how to eat it.¡±

    "Give me another piece." Xiao Yeyang suddenly said.

    Daohua¡¯s eyebrows suddenly arched, she picked up a piece and handed it to Xiao Yeyang, but when she was about to put it to his mouth, she took it back: ¡°Do you really like to eat it?¡±

    Xiao Yeyang: "Of course, I think it's pretty good."

    Daohua¡¯s face revealed: ¡°Everyone¡¯s taste is different. If you can¡¯t get used to it, don¡¯t force yourself.¡±

    Xiao Yeyang glanced at Daohua: "I like to eat everything you make." He took her hand and ate the dessert in one bite.

    Yan Wenxiu and others looked in admiration when they saw Xiao Yeyang swallowing the dessert without changing his expression.

    Daohua looked at Xiao Yeyang's stiff cheeks, smiled silently, put down the bamboo stick, and asked Wang Maner to carry the dessert down.

    Xiao Yeyang: "I can still eat a few more pieces."

    Daohua: "I'll give you all the delicious food and bad food. I have to keep it to honor my elders."

    Xiao Yeyang: "Okay, I won't eat it."

    Listening to the conversation between the two and watching the two accommodating each other, Han Xinran was a little amused and a little envious.

    In fact, her life after getting married was really good. Her husband was considerate and gentle, and there were no concubines in the same room, but she always felt that something was missing.

    She and her husband don¡¯t get along like the eldest sister and the young prince. Even if they bicker and get angry, the atmosphere feels sweet and warm.

    Yan Yihuan was also looking at Daohua and Xiao Yeyang secretly, with admiration in her eyes.

    Thinking of the lady I met today and the young master of the Dong family whom she praised so highly, I couldn't help but have a lot of expectations for the future.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
