Because of Xiao Le, Su Li would often run out of the palace to Wen Ruochen's prime minister's mansion, but she came here in disguise every time, for fear of causing unnecessary rumors.
However, the empress and prince, who had always loved her, still knew the news.
On this day, the emperor was having a meal with the empress, so he mentioned this matter.
"Empress, Xihe has been going to the prime minister's residence recently, does she like Wen Qing's family?" The emperor asked the empress with a chopstick.
The queen smiled softly, "The concubine is also wondering about this, but Xihe is getting older, and he doesn't like to talk to the concubine anymore."
"Xihe is also nearly 16 years old, it's time to recruit a son-in-law. But if it's Wen Qing's family..." The emperor is ambitious, he doesn't value his wife and children very much, but he is a little more concerned about his daughter-in-law Just love. If not, in the original plot, he would not have directly given his daughter the title of being seriously ill and dying.
If he had to choose, he would definitely choose Wen Ruochen who was beneficial to the country, not his own daughter.
"Your Majesty," relatively speaking, the queen is more sincere to her children, "Prime Minister Wen is a good man, if you recruit him as your son-in-law, wouldn't it be more beneficial to your country?"
"The queen's words are reasonable, but we still have to ask Wen Qing's family and Xihe about this matter. It may be useless to give the marriage hastily." The emperor thought for a while and said.
…
At this time, Su Li had no idea what the two in the palace were planning. She suddenly wanted to visit Xiao Le at the prime minister's mansion today, but he was not there at all.
Su Li sat at the head with Wen Ruochen with a gloomy expression, listening to the narration of the servants in Xiao Le's courtyard.
Because Wen Ruochen was busy with work on weekdays, he didn't have the energy to stare at a child all day long, so he usually left a few days' homework for him to complete after he finished teaching the homework.
For homework, Xiao Le has always been very serious about completing homework, so at other times, Wen Ruochen will not be too restrictive.
"He goes out every few days, and then comes back very late?" Su Li's tone was rare and serious.
"Returning to Your Highness, Young Master Xiao is indeed going out every few days, and he looked very happy when he came back at night."
Su Li didn't need to think about it, this brat must have gone to find Lin Ruxue, but she didn't know if she took the opportunity to instill something in him.
"The princess seems to value Xiao Le very much?" Wen Ruochen felt that she had the air of a strict mother, even though she was actually only a 16-year-old girl.
"After all, I picked it up, so I always pay attention to it." Su Li said seriously, "Besides, I have rarely seen such a clever little devil, so I couldn't help but care a little more."
"Princess Zhai has a kind heart, but there is something that I must say." Wen Ruochen looked at her with some unclear emotions in his eyes.
"What do you want to say?"
"Weichen and Xiao Le have also been together for a while, and found that he is indeed very talented, whether it is homework or learning kung fu. Weichen also has a heart for talents, but he has never been able to trust him." Wen Ruochen showed a smile The faint smile, coupled with the temperament of his whole body, makes him seem as if he has ascended to immortality. "Because he is too smart, and his background is still a mystery, I think it's better for the princess not to get too emotionally involved."
The corner of Su Li's mouth raised, "I understand what you said, but I still have use for this child..."
She has never been a good person, although she does like Xiao Le, but this love is also mixed with use.
