Chapter 341: Chapter 341: I’ll Help You Deal with Her_1

"What about that Li Wuyu?" asked An Jing. "Has the Emperor also thought about betrothing her to your lord?" If so, she could take care of them both together.

Meng Zhuqing said, "Miss Li has a rebellious nature, disliking to sit in her boudoir and embroider. Instead, she likes to practice with spears and sticks, often dressing as a man, without a trace of womanliness. The Emperor doesn’t even consider it, naturally, he wouldn’t think of betrothing her to my lord."

Is this Li Wuyu really the Prime Minister’s daughter?

Logically, the Prime Minister’s family should have strict household teaching, it’s impossible to raise such a daughter.

However, she quite admired her.

She just hoped that Li Wuyu wouldn’t disappoint her when the time came.

Having been here for so long, it was rare to come across a woman she admired this much.

While An Jing thought so to herself, she asked out loud, "Then how is her martial arts?"

Meng Zhuqing said, "This subordinate does not know about that. However, I’ve heard that Prime Minister Li is very displeased with Miss Li’s behavior. Miss Li has requested several times for Prime Minister Li to hire a master to teach her martial arts specifically, but Prime Minister Li has never agreed."

Then her martial arts couldn’t be that good. An Jing understood clearly.

Seeing that Meng Zhuqing had explained everything, Xiao Changyi stretched out his hand and took the two small wooden boxes from Meng Zhuqing’s hand.

Meng Zhuqing immediately sighed a huge sigh of relief in his heart, feeling as if he had been spared from calamity.

After Meng Zhuqing left, Xiao Changyi and An Jing continued reading the letters. There was nothing of importance left in Su Chengyu’s letter. They looked at Su Chengyu’s letter and then they read the Emperor’s letter.

Most of the Emperor’s letter contained words of concern about whether Xiao Changyi was doing well, with only a very small part mentioning An Jing. It was also hoping An Jing and Xiao Changyi would live well together. At the end, he mentioned that if he was in good health this year, he might visit them in Hecheng County.

An Jing burst into laughter when she read the last sentence, "My adoptive father is already so old, yet he still wants to come to see us. Don’t you feel like our adoptive father is very pitiful and that we are very unfilial?"

Xiao Changyi replied quite cheerfully, "I don’t think so."

An Jing was caught between laughter and tears, but still said, "Let’s go to the Capital when it’s adoptive father’s birthday. It’ll save him the trouble of travelling so far with his old arms and legs to come see us."

Even though that person was the current Emperor, at this moment in An Jing’s eyes, he was an old man, an old man who loved her husband dearly.

The usually indifferent Xiao Changyi did not protest and nodded, "Hmm."

Inside the two small wooden boxes were the birthday gifts from the Emperor and Su Chengyu to Xiao Changyi. The Emperor’s gift was a Millennium Ginseng and Su Chengyu’s gift was a pair of Jade Ruyis.

Although the items were precious, An Jing and Xiao Changyi were not interested. After looking at them, An Jing and Xiao Changyi put them away and buried them at the bottom of a chest.

After storing the gifts, An Jing asked Xiao Changyi, "My lord, when will Princess Linghe arrive?"

Xiao Changyi pulled An Jing into his embrace and held her, his chin resting atop her head, and snorted coldly, "It would be best if she never arrives."

"Pfft," An Jing laughed out loud, "If she doesn’t come, how can I deal with her?"

Without waiting for Xiao Changyi’s response, An Jing haughtily hummed, "She even dares to covet you, I’ll see to it that she’s taken care of properly!"

Xiao Changyi’s mouth curved slightly, and after kissing the top of her head, he said, "I’ll take care of her with you."

An Jing instantly felt overjoyed, her heart sweetened to no end. Tilting her little face upwards, she nodded at him with a beaming smile, "Mhm~"
