The rule of Baihua Garden is that when both the owner and guests who booked the room are absent, it is absolutely forbidden for servants to enter the room, unless they are familiar faces. Baihua Garden has been open for so many years, and the hosts and managers are familiar with the notable people around dignitaries in the capital, so naturally, they will be allowed in. But if it’s a stranger, wanting to stay in the room when both the owner and guests are absent is absolutely impossible.
Although Baihua Garden does not pry into guests’ privacy, it also never allows any breaches of these rules to occur.
Han Yuxiao, although she dressed up the beggar and brought him in, it was absolutely impossible to secretly leave him in Mudan Pavilion. The guards of Baihua Garden are not idle eaters!
Therefore, the events of the night before last... there must be some mystery.
Moreover, the night before last, it was also the time when he was poisoned in Baihua Garden, but he seemed to be in his exclusive Liuxian Pavilion at that time, and every time he was poisoned, he did not remember what happened afterward.
When he regained consciousness, he was also in Liuxian Pavilion, and when he left Baihua Garden and returned to Prince Mansion, he passed by Prince Ling Mansion.
It seems that after going back, he still needs to have someone thoroughly investigate what exactly happened in Mudan Pavilion of Baihua Garden that night.
"Nonsense! I have personally decreed the marriage, how can you take it back just because you say so? Yan’er, I see you’re usually steady, why are you acting so recklessly now! Although Jing’er is a few years younger than you, you also grew up together. Jing’er may be a bit willful, but she’s a good child nevertheless. As her cousin and her fiancé, you should indulge her a bit." Before Su Yaogeng could speak, the Emperor already scolded Su Xingyan.
If he hadn’t spoken first, and if Su Yaogeng got angry, today’s situation would truly be difficult to manage.
This Emperor’s job is indeed difficult, having a capricious and willful sister is one thing, but how come the son doesn’t show any understanding for his father!
Whom does he think he’s opposing? He’s actually saying such things in front of Su Yaogeng!
The Emperor thought that by saying this, Su Xingyan should be able to understand his painstaking efforts, and that by apologizing now, the major issues could be resolved easily. There was still time.
But who would have thought that Su Xingyan was determined this time and said firmly, "Father, please let me go. I will never marry Han Jing in this life."
As soon as he finished speaking, his forehead was immediately hit hard by someone, without giving him any chance to dodge.
Blood dripped down his forehead, showing how hard the hit was.
Su Yaogeng coldly stared at Su Xingyan: "Su Xingyan, I’m telling you today, this matter isn’t over!"
Daring to hit someone in front of the Emperor, in the whole world, in the entire Nanyao Country, it’s likely only Su Yaogeng can do this.
If it weren’t for Han Jing repeatedly admonishing before entering the palace that all she needed was to make a scene, and to firmly hold onto the divorce matter, absolutely not to cancel the marriage at this time, she would have directly smashed this brat to death! Someone like him, dreaming of marrying her Jing’er! Let him dream on!
Having finished speaking, Su Yaogeng swung her sleeve and left.
The Emperor looked at Su Yaogeng’s expression and already knew this matter wouldn’t be easy to handle.
Sure enough, as soon as Su Yaogeng stepped out, an eunuch reported back to the Emperor: "Returning to the Emperor, the Eldest Princess has gone to the Empress’s palace."
Su Xingyan’s face changed immediately, ignoring the wound on his forehead, he righteously said to the Emperor: "Father, I will take responsibility for my own actions, it has nothing to do with Mother!"
