Chapter 90 Lingering Scent

In the open and bright hall, Emperor Shen Yuan did not put up any imperial airs. Seeing that there was a small round table for four people to sit around in the center, he immediately walked over and invited the Emperor Teacher to take a seat. Old Master Guan was ashamed and dared not accept it and refused several times, but he forcibly pressed him down. He also asked Chief of Ceremonies to sit on the left and himself on the right, so Guan Suyi was sandwiched between the two, facing her grandfather.

The group exchanged some pleasantries, and then a servant girl brought snacks and tea trays. Minglan carried the child to the main house, leaving Jinzi and Baifu to serve in the hall.

When Emperor Shen Yuan saw Madam lowered her head and eyes, only staring at the steaming teacup, without even looking at himself, he couldn’t help but feel anxious, secretly touched her with his toes, tried to appeal: Madam, just look at Zhen, and let Zhen be at ease.

It’s a pity that Guan Suyi couldn’t hear him at all, and she scolded him a hundred or eighty times in her head, but because of her grandfather and father, she had to hold back.

Emperor Shen Yuan saw that she was unresponsive, like a wooden person without saying a word, so he guessed that she must be angry. However, now he couldn’t care whether she was angry or annoyed, whether she would distanced herself from him. The last shackles around his neck had been lifted, and now he was going to show Madam who the person who wooed her was and what kind of identity he had.

He had a lifetime to appease her anger and incite her love. What Zhao Luli could give her, he could give; what Zhao Luli couldn’t give, he could also give, and he would give the best in the world!

Full of affection but could not express his feelings, gave hint but Madam pretended not to know, Emperor Shen Yuan couldn’t help but use the cover of the gorgeous tablecloth to hold her slender wrist.

Guan Suyi felt her wrist suddenly tighten, and her palm was pulled over by someone and firmly held, she couldn’t break free no matter what, couldn’t help but secretly scolded: The earthy Emperor (local tyrant) really made his fortune by burning, killing, looting, and acting like a bandit. After robbing other people’s original partner, then come to rob their second wife, could it be he’s addicted to it? If it’s an addiction, then go to the imperial physician to cure the disease, drink some medicine!

Taking advantage of the gap between her grandfather and father drinking tea, she glared fiercely, only to see a cold and serious face, and she couldn’t help but get angry.

Feeling the softness and warmth in his palm, as well as the occasional twitching movement, Emperor Shen Yuan smiled satisfactorily and said, “Emperor Teacher, Chief of Ceremonies, you two will go to the public security office in a while. Zhen have already brought the official hat and official robe. Without you in the court, Zhen’s heart feel very empty, and cannot do anything steadily.”

“Still ask the emperor to please forgive, this humble one is old and in low spirits, wants to stay at home to nurture one’s years and enjoy some leisure life, and do not want to go the court to work hard. I’m old, I really cannot accept it.” Old Master Guan resolutely refused, Guan Father also echoed softly.

“Why are you in low spirits? You are clearly very strong! Zhen will call the imperial physician to examine you. For the sake of one child, Zhen have lost two good teachers, Zhen is very heartbroken!” Emperor Shen Yuan’s tone was sincere, his expression was sorrowful, and it was actually quite inspiring. That if one ignored that he forcibly clasped Madam’s ten fingers with his left hand. (TN: I think it supposed to be his right hand because she sit to his right)
