Tian Xiaoxiao showed a smile that wasn't a smile: "No...it's nothing."

"We should go."

Tian Xiaoxiao didn't say a word, she also knew that they should leave, and even knew that it was not suitable to stay here any longer.

Tian Xiaoxiao bit her lip a little unwillingly, she finally had the chance to come out, and was ruined by Pei Jinan just like that.

He glanced at Pei Jin'an resentfully, and quickly retracted his gaze after seeing the other's cold eyes. He lowered his head and didn't dare to say anything, and followed Xu Yanqi to leave Pei's house.

After the hated person left, everyone finally returned to the excitement they should have had.

And Pei Jin'an also went to the old man's yard to find the emperor.

"See Your Majesty."

"It's in Jin'an, sit wherever you want, don't be restrained."

Mr. Pei gave the emperor a funny look. Whose house is this?

"Is your father okay?"

"Fortunately, Uncle Pei just misses you very much. I wanted to come out to find you when I knew you were back. I thought your family is too busy today and let him come here after today." Thinking of his father who is like an old child, the emperor felt helpless. said shaking his head.

"Tomorrow I will go to the palace to find him."

"The relationship is good, and the emperor will be happy."

Pei Jinan sat on the side and listened to the chat between the two, and only after the chat was over did he tell the emperor about Pei Jinruo's unwillingness to come back.

Hearing that Pei Mingyue dared to lay a dead hand on Pei Jinruo, the emperor's face suddenly darkened: "Ruoruo is my adopted daughter, the Princess I appointed by myself, how dare she do it? How brave."

"The emperor calm down, this matter is being investigated by the minister, and he will not tolerate it until the evidence is obtained."

Only then did the emperor reluctantly nod his head in agreement: "You just need to know what's in your mind, how is Ruoruo doing now?"

"Ruoruo is very good. Her fiancé's family treats her very well. Gu Lingye's parents dote on her like their own daughter. Even the elder brothers and sisters-in-law also dote on her. The children in the family also respect Ruoruo very much. The village is also very good." Pei Jinan told the emperor about Pei Jinruo's life in Fengling Village.

The emperor muttered dissatisfiedly: "It's really cheap for that kid Gu Lingye. I originally wanted Ruoruo to be my daughter-in-law."

"Forget it, Ruoruo is not interested in life in the palace."

The emperor sighed a little helplessly, it was because Pei Jinruo was not interested in such a life that he accepted Pei Jinruo as a foster daughter, at least to make up for his regret.

"No matter what, you can't let Ruoruo be wronged. We Queen Ruoruo deserve it. Their family should treat Ruoruo well. Have you investigated that person named Gu Lingye? How is he?"

"After I came back, I investigated. He is the owner of the Nanfeng Merchant Group. Apart from the Nanfeng Merchant Group, he also has a lot of businesses, and they all make money. In the past two years, the southern floods have secretly brought out a lot of food to help the court. People are not bad through difficult times.”

As soon as the emperor heard it, he remembered what happened two years ago. At that time, a mysterious wealthy businessman took 30 catties of grain out to appease the people, so that he had more time to solve the matter. Later, he wanted to find someone, but he was gone. Leave a sentence saying that is what he should do.

I didn't expect it to be Gu Lingye.

If so, this person is barely worthy of their Ruoruo.

The emperor curled his lips and said: "When I come back with Ruoruo, I will see for myself whether he is really suitable for Ruoruo. As for the Xu family, don't let them disturb Ruoruo's life."

"Yes."

One sentence has already determined that Xu Yanqi will never have a chance with Pei Jinruo in the future.

Patriarch Xu and the others didn't know this, so they sent Tian Xiaoxiao to ask Xu Yanqi to go with him to the study after returning home.

As soon as he entered the study, Patriarch Xu asked dissatisfiedly: "Why must Tian Xiaoxiao follow over today? If Tian Xiaoxiao hadn't followed over, we wouldn't be so ashamed."

Master Xu knew very well that if Tian Xiaoxiao hadn't gone over, Pei Jin'an would not have given him face in front of so many people.

"Father Xiaoxiao said that she was sorry for Ruoruo, and that's why she wanted to apologize, so I brought him along." Xu Yanqi explained helplessly.

Patriarch Xu glanced at Xu Yanqi angrily: "No one is at home, why apologize? What's on your mind?"

Up to now, Patriarch Xu still disapproves of Xu Yanqi being with Tian Xiaoxiao.

After all, Pei Jinruo was much better than Tian Xiaoxiao.

"Tell me, Ruoruo is such an outstanding girl, why do you like someone like Tian Xiaoxiao?" Patriarch Xu asked bitterly.

He now regretted agreeing to Xu Yanqi to give them a chance.

Xu Yanqi quickly said: "Father Xiaoxiao is also very kind."

"I don't know if she is good or not. I only know that she has no good intentions, and her thoughts are not pure." Patriarch Xu said with a cold face.

Tian Xiaoxiao must go to Pei's house with them today, who would believe that there is no purpose?

"Father...you misunderstood Xiaoxiao." Xu Yanqi said helplessly.

"Did you misunderstand that I know it well, you don't need to tell me so much." Patriarch Xu said with a cold face.

"I will agree if you want her to be a concubine, but it is impossible for you to want her to be the young wife of the Xu family." Patriarch Xu looked at Xu Yanqi indifferently.

Xu Yanqi was flustered immediately, and quickly said, "Father, didn't you say you would give Xiaoxiao a chance? Why now..."

"I did say that I would give it a chance, but what Tian Xiaoxiao did today is not enough to embarrass our Xu family? What's the matter with her weak appearance in front of others, as if being bullied by Pei Jinruo?" Although Patriarch Xu didn't want to I don't care about my son, but I don't want to see my son being cheated.

Xu Yanqi felt a little uncomfortable, thinking that what his father said was wrong.

"father……"

"Okay, this matter is over. If you insist on letting Tian Xiaoxiao be the young master's wife, then don't blame me for not letting you be the young master." Patriarch Xu warned.

This time, Patriarch Xu was completely firm in his attitude, and would not let Tian Xiaoxiao be the young wife.

If his son really married Tian Xiaoxiao, he wouldn't know how he would be ridiculed by others in the future.

Xu Yanqi knew that his father would not listen to anything when he was angry, so he could only nod helplessly in agreement: "Father, I understand."

"Don't think I'm unreasonable. I made it very clear that Tian Xiaoxiao is not suitable to be the young wife of the Xu family and the head of the house. She is too small and can't afford the responsibility of the Xu family's mother." The head of the Xu family didn't want his son to resent him. , so he explained.

Xu Yanqi was silent and did not speak, but he also realized that what his father said was not unreasonable, so he nodded in approval of his father's words.

"Father, I know."

"The relationship between Dad and the Pei family..."

"You still have the nerve to ask me? The emperor is dissatisfied with us because you took Tian Xiaoxiao there today, so you still have the nerve to mention the relationship with the Pei family?"
