456 The Meeting of Father and Son-in-law (2)
The emperor glanced at Eunuch Deng.
Eunuch Deng understood and took one out.
The emperor looked at Ji Yunxi. Through the thin veil, there was no change in her expression.
He seemed to sigh. “You saved me, the old princess consort, and Lord Jing’an. I also heard that Madam Qiu’s health has improved after your treatment. Tell me, what reward do you want?”!!
Ji Yunxi pondered for a moment and bowed again. “Yunxi begs Your Majesty to allow Yunxi to leave the palace to stay outside.”
“Oh? Why? Isn’t it good to live in the palace?” the emperor said meaningfully.
Ji Yunxi was such a beauty, so the emperor naturally had the thought of taking her into his harem.
Unfortunately, the other party did not respond to his hints.
During this period of time, the emperor had eaten the pills refined by Ji Yunxi and was clearly much more energetic. He did not feel weak after spending the night in the harem, as if he had returned to his youth.
He still wanted Ji Yunxi to continue refining pills for him, but he did not dare to push her too far.
“The palace is naturally excellent, but Yunxi practices saving the dying and healing the injured. If I stay in the palace all day, my abilities will be useless.” Ji Yunxi lowered her eyes and pretended not to understand the emperor’s words.
The emperor refused to give up. “How can that be? I can’t do without your alchemy skills.”
“Even if I live outside the palace, Yunxi can refine pills for His Majesty every day. Moreover, I can help some people who need Yunxi in my free time. I hope His Majesty can fulfill my wish.”
The emperor’s eyes darkened. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Ji Yunxi. After a long time, he said, “Forget it. I’ll confer you the title of princess tomorrow. At that time, you can move into the princess’s residence.”
He casually picked up a memorial and opened it. He continued, “A young princess has come to the Xuanyuan Kingdom this time. Coincidentally, you can entertain her with Linghui.”
Ji Yunxi should have been rewarded much earlier for her achievements.
The emperor originally wanted to give her a position, so he did not mention this matter. Unexpectedly, Ji Yunxi was unwilling.
He was the emperor of Great Xia. What kind of beauty could he not get?
Although Ji Yunxi’s rejection made him a little angry, the emperor endured it when he thought of her value.
“Thank you, Your Majesty.”
“Your Majesty,” Eunuch Deng reminded him.
The emperor glanced at the hourglass beside him and nodded.
Eunuch Deng waved his hand and asked the eunuch to pour a cup of tea and bring it in before going forward to serve the emperor.
Seeing the emperor swallow the pill, Ji Yunxi smiled and said respectfully, “Then I’ll leave first.”
As soon as the pill entered his throat, the emperor felt his entire body lighten. He closed his eyes and felt it for a while before waving his hand in enjoyment.
Knowing that the little beggar was not summoned by Shen Yijia, Xuanyuan Ce immediately instructed Chu Feng to return to the vicinity of the courier station to look for him.
Unfortunately, the capital was so big. After a few hours, the little beggar had long disappeared.
However, he brought back news that Shen Pingxiu’s official position had been stripped.
“So soon?” Shen Yijia’s eyes widened. She was so happy that she almost jumped up on the spot.
“But how did that person in the palace receive the news so quickly?”
They had only returned to Liu’er Street for less than an hour. Didn’t that mean that the useless emperor had received the news while she was still in the Imperial Capital?
Shen Yijia did not know that Dean Lu had been to the Imperial Capital. She only thought that it was because of Xuanyuan Ce.
Even Xuanyuan Ce thought so. As an envoy, it was normal for the emperor to pay attention to his movements.
In the reception pavilion, Xuanyuan Ce asked Shen Yijia about her childhood from time to time, and she answered obediently.
However, she was very depressed. Why was the beautiful uncle so curious about her childhood?
Even her biological father had never paid so much attention to her.
Moreover, the way Xuanyuan Ce looked at her always made Shen Yijia feel uncomfortable. It was clearly not like this when she saw him at the Hidden Spirit Temple.
Shen Yijia was conflicted.
She had already thanked him.
She also treated him to tea.
Why didn’t the beautiful uncle say goodbye?
Just as Shen Yijia felt that she was about to suffocate to death, Bruiser’s surprised voice sounded from outside the door.
“Sister, Brother-in-law is back!”
Madam Li instructed him and Lin Shao to guard the courtyard. As soon as Song Jingchen stepped into the courtyard, he ran over to report.
Shen Yijia’s eyes lit up and she quickly stood up to run out.
Seeing the person walking towards her in a hurry, Shen Yijia smiled and pounced on him. “Hubby, you’re back.”
Song Jingchen relaxed a little and hugged the person in his arms tighter. His breathing was a little unstable as he said in a hoarse voice, “I’m sorry. I came back late. You must have been frightened.”
