Chapter 1087 What a cruel heart
He Mansion.
He Xianjiu paced back and forth anxiously, looking outside the door from time to time to see if there was anyone coming to report.
"Why hasn't the Empress sent anyone to summon us?"
Xin Yueyuan was leisurely eating pastries.
"Don't be impatient, she will come."
He Xianjiu was anxious and furious.
"It's almost dinner time, and if she doesn't send someone over, it will be dark."
"I can't possibly make a late-night appointment with Junior Sister Seventeen, can I? She's already dissatisfied with my behavior, and if I'm frivolous, she'll be even more disgusted."
Xin Yueyuan gave solemn exhortations and kind words of comfort.
"Seventeenth Junior Sister, be upright and respectful. Do not ask her out to meet you in the dark night."
"It's dark now. It's no problem. At worst, you can wait overnight and look for her tomorrow."
"You've waited all these years, and you're still afraid of this one night?"
He Xianjiu was in a state of anxiety.
"I'm no longer in my prime, and she's in her prime. Shouldn't I be worried?"
"One night, several hours, who knows what will happen?"
Xin Yueyuan smiled meaninglessly.
"What could happen at night? Shower, change clothes, eat, and go to bed."
He Xianjiu stared at the main gate of his house, looking anxiously.
"Who asked you this? Senior brother is always fond of talking nonsense."
"I mean, I'm worried that she'll be coveted by other men."
Xin Yueyuan remained calm and composed.
"If it's yours, you can't escape; if it's not yours, don't force it."
"Let nature take its course."
He Xianjiu couldn't calm down.
"What do you mean by letting nature take its course?"
"Like you, patiently waiting for Senior Sister? I can't wait that long."
"After ten years of suffering, all alone and in despair, I am broken."
Xin Yueyuan raised his eyes, looked at him, and comforted him gently.
"Look at you, you're totally out of control and have lost all your composure."
"As for it?"
"Just sit back, enjoy some tea, and admire the snow outside the window. Time will pass quickly."
There was no movement towards the main gate, and He Xianjiu was extremely anxious.
"How can I sit still in this situation?"
"That idea of yours is totally unacceptable."
"With the Empress's intelligence and talent, how could she possibly deceive the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Junior Sisters?"
"Until now, there is still no one from Yuexi Mansion who delivered the message. I guess the Empress has been seen through by the two junior sisters."
Xin Yueyuan took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the corners of his mouth.
"If you see through it, you see through it."
"I know that the Empress can't fool the two junior sisters."
He Xianjiu was shocked and angry.
"You know? Then why did you come up with this idea? Were you deliberately trying to embarrass the Emperor and Empress?"
"Brother, you have a cruel heart."
"We are incompetent and have searched for her for years without success, causing our Junior Sister to suffer in Ning Mansion. It would be fine if you don't feel guilty, but how could you toy with her?!"
The door was wide open and the north wind was biting. Xin Yueyuan sat beside the charcoal brazier and still felt cold.
"What's the joke? Don't misunderstand me."
"I tried my best to help you achieve your love, but Junior Sisters Seventeen and Eighteen are used to it and remain unmoved."
"But if the Empress and the Emperor foolishly gave their all and helped match the senior brothers and sisters, they would definitely feel bad for the little junior sister because of how much they owed her over the years, and would take the initiative to tell her how to court her."
He Xianjiu suddenly understood.
"I see."
"Brother, it's really a brilliant idea."
After calming down a little, he closed the door and sat opposite his senior brother.
"Actually, I've always been curious about what she's thinking. Why do I put so much thought and effort into this, only to be rejected and see no progress at all?"
Xin Yueyuan guessed.
"In her mind, there's no specific method at all. No matter what you do, it's wrong."
He Xianjiu frowned and looked extremely depressed.
"If that's the case, then the Empress can't find out either."
"Alas, the plan failed again."
"Why is it so difficult to woo her?"
Xin Yueyuan remained calm.
"Don't worry."
"She'll give the Empress a favor by selecting a few things you haven't done and pretending they're what she's thinking. Or, she'll tacitly allow Eighteenth Junior Sister to make decisions for her, doing the Empress a favor."
"Anyway, you two are in love, and getting married and staying together is not a bad thing. Just give this favor. It can make amends to Junior Sister and bring happiness to their relationship. Everyone is happy. Why wouldn't she do it?"
He Xianjiu was inspired when he heard this.
"I didn't expect that in the end it was my junior sister who helped me find a lover."
"I never expected that Junior Sister Seventeen had no other thoughts in her mind but only rejected me. No wonder I've tried so hard to woo her for so many years without any success."
Xin Yueyuan is considerate.
"Getting married is so important."
"She's a woman, so she should be cautious. She's testing your patience. She doesn't want to sacrifice her lifelong happiness. This is reasonable."
"Please be understanding and don't be anxious."
He Xianjiu was full of concerns.
"What if, when Sister Seventeen tosses and turns in bed at night, she feels regretful and rejects me again when we meet again tomorrow?"
"What should I do?"
Xin Yueyuan took care of things well.
"I offer advice to the Empress, assist the Eighteenth Junior Sister, and seek the love and protection of Master Yu. The plan is progressing smoothly."
"Eighteenth Junior Sister, please be loyal to us. With her guidance, why worry about Seventeenth Junior Sister changing her mind and causing you more trouble?"
He Xianjiu's sorrow disappeared and he admired him from the bottom of his heart.
"Brother, you are very thoughtful."
"Eighteenth Junior Sister is very good at dealing with Seventeenth Junior Sister. As long as she is on our side, this matter will be settled."
Before dinner time, Ge Yao, the guard of Yuexi Mansion, came personally to deliver a letter and told him how to court.
He Xianjiu prepared Wu Mei's favorite gift according to what was written in the letter and invited her to dinner.
Late at night, in the bedroom of Emperor Sheng Palace.
Zhan Wang came to ask for a meeting.
"Your Majesty, may your Majesty be at peace."
Yan Danqing lowered his eyes and smiled.
"I will give you a seat without any gift."
"Why did Lord Zhan come into the palace in the middle of the night?"
Zhan Wang stood up and walked towards him slowly.
"I dare to ask, why did Your Majesty choose to meet with me in the bedroom of the palace?"
"Qinglang asks even though he already knows the answer."
Her hands were slender and she was proactive and enthusiastic. Yan Danqing felt sweet in his heart. He held her hand and helped her sit beside him.
"Mian'er once said that since we are separated by Yin and Yang, there is no hope for marriage, and she is willing to remain faithful to me for the rest of her life."
"Remember when I advised you not to be obsessed with it? We only had an engagement, not a deep love."
"I spoke so decisively because I thought we would never have another chance to express our feelings and speak to each other again."
"I never thought that my beloved Highness would be so righteous and risk her life to protect me. Fortunately, I have a wise minister like her, and now we can meet again."
Zhan Wang's appearance remains the same, pure and innocent.
"Prince Hansheng is so kind. Before entering the palace, I went there to pay my respects and express my gratitude for his kindness."
Yan Danqing's eyes are full of affection.
"Mian'er is thoughtful."
"Today, the position of Queen is vacant. My dear Lord Zhan, are you willing to stay by my side and spend the rest of my life with me?"
Zhan Wan snuggled in his arms.
"It is my honor to serve Your Majesty. Thank you for your grace."
Feeling the tenderness of the beauty, Yan Danqing smiled happily.
"I have already drafted the imperial edict to enthrone the empress. I only need your approval and will send it directly to the governor's office."
"Someone is coming..."
Zhan Wang sat upright, waiting for him to instruct the palace servants to convey his order, and then made a proposal.
"King Di Jin, fearless of danger, has protected the Yan clan for over twenty years. His achievements are unparalleled and he is admired by all his subjects."
"Forgive my frank advice, Your Majesty should not enjoy the honor of the throne."
Yan Danqing nodded.
"I see the same thing as you."
"But considering my second brother's reputation, I must ascend the throne, even if it's just a formality, to prevent outsiders from talking about him being harsh on his brother."
"Now that I have ascended to the throne, I truly do not wish to betray it. Therefore, I have decided to resolve my brother's troublesome affairs before abdicating the throne. During this time, I will allow them to relax and rest, so that they can better themselves and show their kindness and grace to the people."
Zhan Wan's cheeks are tinged with a touch of floral love.
"Your Majesty is wise and wise, and I bow down to you."
Yan Danqing couldn't wait any longer, picked her up and put her to sleep on the dragon bed...
