"Yes, my husband is called Su Zongwen. He was sent by Liang Kingdom to the palace to pay a visit to him. I still have three children, one of them is my own daughter, called Ruanruan. The other two are entrusted to me by the consort, Zi Yi and Jingshu. "

Shen Zhu slowly said, gently holding the empress's hand, telling her not to worry too much about the thin cocoon on her palm.

Qi Emperor nodded. She would have a good look at that cheap son-in-law later on to see what kind of person could move her daughter's heart.

If she was raised in the palace, she would definitely be in their hands. There was no need to do anything else, so the empress suppressed her thoughts and asked, "Qingzhu, it's all your fault. If it wasn't for my suggestion, you wouldn't have been sent away. How are you doing in the Shen family? Are they nice to you? Did they let you work? "

"The Shen family doesn't have much money, their whole family is working, otherwise they wouldn't have anything to eat. But after I married Su Zongwen, it became a lot better. My Su Family has already suffered grievances, so I don't need to work anymore. Actually, you don't have to worry about me. I'm fine, really. "

She didn't want her parents to worry. Even if the days of the Shen family were tough, they were already past, and they definitely wouldn't have such hardships in the future.

The empress's tears flowed uncontrollably. The joy of reuniting with her daughter after so long filled her heart with the pain of knowing her daughter's life. She secretly made up her mind to make amends for her child.

"Alright, why are you crying on such a happy day? I still have things to take care of. You two can talk yourselves. "

Qi Emperor stood up, patted Shen Zhu's shoulders and walked out of the palace.

As the ruler of a country and also as his father, he did not allow himself to lose control of his emotions in front of others.

Just as Qi Emperor left the empress palace, a eunuch came to notify them that Qi Kingdom envoy Su Zongwen requested an audience.

"Let him go to the study."

When he arrived at the study room, Su Zongwen was already standing there, waiting.

"The emperor has arrived!"

The eunuch announced.

Su Zongwen turned around and bowed respectfully: "Su Zongwen greets Qi Emperor."

Qi Emperor saw that he was a talented person, his attitude was humble, and instantly had a good impression of him, "No need to be so polite."

He went up and sat on the Dragon Throne.

"Thank you, Qi Emperor."

Su Zongwen generously sat down.

"Zong Wen, can I call you that? We are family, so there is no need to be polite about many things. "I hope that my daughter can live a good life. Be it you or your family, you must treat her well."

He could tell that Shen Zhu's days were not bad, but as a father, he always wanted to say these words, to prepare for a rainy day.

"Yes, Zong Wen knows. Zong Wen felt that it was the fortune of his previous life that allowed him to have such a good wife. His family treated Shen Zhu very well, Qi Emperor can rest assured."

Su Zongwen stood up and replied. He understood Qi Emperor's intentions, and he would definitely treat Shen Zhu well.

Qi Emperor nodded in satisfaction, "Your children are doing well, more important than anything else. "Zong Wen, she had a tough life since she was young, and was taken away not long after she was born. She has been roaming the world, and suffered a lot in the Shen family, and I know that she is a strong and good child, but in the end, she is still a woman, you still have to take care of her, take care of her, and understand her thoughts." he said earnestly.

He saw that Su Zongwen was a reliable person with a calm personality and clear eyes.

"Zong Wen understands." Su Zongwen nodded.

"Your Majesty," an eunuch entered. "The Xiao Emperor requests an audience."

Xiao Mo? Qi Emperor frowned, he was not very clear about the purpose of his visit.

"Xiao Emperor should have something important to tell you. Zong Wen will take his leave first."

Su Zongwen knew that Xiao Mo was here to discuss the marriage matter, so she gave him some time.

"Alright, there's still a lot of time to come, let's talk another day."

The Qi Emperor nodded, his eyes indicating that the eunuch should let Xiao Mo in.

Su Zongwen slowly withdrew himself from the study room and glanced at Xiao Mo.

Xiao Mo was still a little disdainful, but his eyes were already friendly.

"Greetings Qi Emperor."

Xiao Mo walked in and greeted him with a great bow, for the first time in history.

After all, Xiao Mo had never bowed so deeply before, so he didn't know what was going on today.

"Xiao Emperor, you're too polite. If you have anything to say, sit down and chat."

Qi Emperor pointed to a spot below, and the doubt in his heart deepened.

He had very little interaction with Xiao Mo in the past, and only knew about the matter of him borrowing money from Mu Xiangsi.

"Xiao Mo and Princess Lovesick have already been privately betrothed for life, so I hope that Qi Emperor can grant my wish."

Xiao Mo said without sitting down. He felt that it would be more sincere to stand.

A lifetime?

Qi Emperor was surprised, he had never heard of the two being very close.

However, due to the special status of Lovesick, he was careful about his lovesick marriage. He had to find the one and only person in this world.

"Is what the Xiao Emperor said true? I have never heard of lovesick mentioning it. "

He pretended to be confused and asked doubtfully.

"Actually, Lovesick and I have known each other for many years. This time, at Liang Kingdom, when she and I met with danger, we were able to confirm our intentions. We have already talked about the matter of getting married in front of the Liang Huang Emperor, I hope that the Qi Emperor can grow up to be a beauty, Xiao Mo will never be able to thank you enough. "

Xiao Mo said in an amiable tone.

He did not have that much patience in the past, but for Mu Xiangsi's sake, he felt that it was worth it.

"Is the Xiao Emperor serious about love? To be honest, I really don't wish for Acacia to marry the Royal Family. "

Qi Emperor did not bother to beat around the bush and directly said.

He hoped that Lovesick would find a single-minded man and not one of the three thousand beauties in the harem. Wouldn't that be unfair for this good child?

Xiao Mo was startled for a moment, "I am serious about Lovesick, I promise that in this life, I will only marry her, and she will be the only one in the harem."

His eyes were firm as he solemnly promised.

"Is what Xiao Huang said true?"

The Qi Emperor asked suspiciously. This Xiao Mo was still young, it was not guaranteed that he would not change his mind that day.

"Seriously, I can write it down in black and white." Xiao Mo nodded.

Qi Emperor looked at the eunuch beside him. The eunuch took out a pen and paper and walked to Xiao Mo's side and presented it to him.

Xiao Mo did not hesitate and immediately wrote: "Xiao Mo is the only woman in my life, he will only marry Mu Xiangsi." Then he wrote his name and took out a private stamp from his pocket and stamped on it.

The eunuch took the things and returned to Qi Emperor's side, passing the piece of paper to him.

Qi Emperor took it and looked, and was slightly satisfied.

"Xiao Mo, the parents of Lovesick left when she was very young. His father was a great general who sacrificed his life for his country and his mother was the empress's elder sister. Lovesick was accepted into the palace since she was young. She never mentioned her parents, but I know that she still cares a lot about them. She doesn't seem to care about anything, but she's the one who values feelings the most. If you dare disappoint her, we will pay you back with the strength of our Qi Kingdom! "

Qi Emperor felt that since the two of them were already engaged for life, there was nothing he could do to stop them.

Xiao Mo's face revealed joy, "Thank you Qi Emperor, I will definitely give Lovesick a grand wedding."
