The confused King Jin

"I heard that your villa has been very busy recently? Why do you have time to come to the capital today?"

Hearing this, Lu Yaoyao smiled and said, "It's quite busy, but just because the workers are busy, I just make plans most of the time."

"Isn't this summoned by His Majesty?"

"His Majesty?"

King Jin continued, "Did something happen at the iron-making workshop? I have been feeling a little unwell these past few days. I took leave of absence and stayed at home, but I didn't even go over there to take a look."

"Are you feeling unwell?"

Lu Yaoyao looked up at him, his embroidered eyebrows slightly wrinkled.

“You’re not feeling well and you still drink?”

Prince Jin did not answer this question, but smiled and continued to ask, "What happened in the workshop?"

"It's not a workshop. He said that the palace needs to be repaired and asked me if there were any bricks or cement on the property."

"Um. Do you still remember what I told you before we left when we went to the village?"

"Um?"

King Jin was startled, then immediately thought of it, and responded again with a somewhat sad expression.

"Remember."

Lu Yaoyao, who lowered his head, did not notice the change in his expression.

"I just told your Majesty."

At this time, Lu Yaoyao lowered his head and rubbed the corners of his clothes with his hands, which had nowhere to place.

When King Jin heard what she said, he was confused and couldn't react, so he subconsciously asked.

"Said? What?"

Looking at Lu Yaoyao again, those ears suddenly turned a little pink.

"That's it. I asked Your Majesty to arrange a marriage between us."

"ah?"

King Jin was even more confused, what happened? This

But the next moment, he couldn't care less about those messy things. He stood up and asked excitedly, "What did he say?"

Although there are still many questions and many things that have not been understood, at this moment, what is more important than knowing the answer to Emperor Hongwen?

She briefly recounted what she said in the imperial study at that time.

"Well, I won't hide it from you, I have a plan."

"What?"

King Jin now wanted to know how Emperor Hongwen responded, but Lu Yaoyao turned around and said such words, and he suddenly became curious.

"That's right. As for me, I saw some rumors in a travel journal that I didn't know where."

She talked about the fact that a woman does not mature until she is around twenty years old, and the dangers of getting married too early and having children too early.

King Jin's face turned red when he said these words. What is all this?

But seeing that Lu Yaoyao was speaking seriously, he couldn't interrupt, right?

"I think it makes sense. Besides, I also told you about Chengyuan Villa, so I thought so."

"Get engaged first, can the marriage be delayed for a while?"

"Now, to be honest, I have some affection for you, but it hasn't reached that point yet. The period in between can be used as a buffer, or to enhance mutual understanding or something."

"If we can't get along, it's not good to force ourselves to be together, don't you think?"

Prince Jin was still in a daze at this time. When he heard her ask, he almost didn't think about it and nodded directly.

"Then what exactly do you mean?"

"What I mean is this. Let's get engaged first, and then date first. I have a lot of problems, and I don't know you very well either."

"After all, it may take a lifetime. If you can't get along with your living habits, wouldn't it be troublesome?"

"Let's see if we get along first. If we get along well, when the time comes, we'll have a wedding. If it's not suitable, then."

She didn't say anything else, but King Jin understood it clearly.

I think she thought it through quite clearly and it makes sense.

The next moment, he became excited.

"How do you say His Majesty agreed?"

"Not yet. He may have sensed my reluctance and asked me to think about it carefully."

Lu Yaoyao shook his head and continued, "I thought about it later and found that there are indeed some problems, so I came over to your side and wanted to explain it clearly to you."

"If you think what I just said is okay and acceptable, we can go and talk to His Majesty about this together in a few days. What do you think?"

When he heard that Emperor Hongwen did not agree, the enthusiasm that King Jin had just mentioned suddenly cooled down a lot.

But Lu Yaoyao's next words soon made him excited again.

Lu Yaoyao's attitude is the most important, isn't it?

Although there are still many doubts in his mind, it's now time, so why should he care about them?

"Okay, when you are free, send someone over and let me know, and I will accompany you to see His Majesty."

"Then it's okay, I'll go back first."

After saying that, Lu Yaoyao stood up.

"That, you."

"Um?"

Lu Yaoyao looked up at him and asked doubtfully, "Is there anything else?"

"It's okay, it's okay. I just wanted to ask if you had lunch."

"Already used."

King Jin originally wanted to ask why she suddenly changed her mind. Didn't she say that if the results in Jiangdong were not what they imagined, they would stop mentioning the matter?

Why has it completely changed today?

But he thought about it again, since no one mentioned it, wouldn't it be too easy for him to bring it up?

"Oh, then I'll give it to you."

Then King Jin drove Lu Yaoyao out and turned around when he saw her carriage disappearing around the corner.

All the way to the study, he had not yet fully reacted to what had just happened.

There were really too many doubts in his mind.

Putting aside Lu Yaoyao's transformation, just talking about Emperor Hongwen, he did not explicitly refuse, but asked Lu Yaoyao to think carefully before going.

This is a bit weird.

You know, the news he got from Jiangdong can almost confirm that Lu Yaoyao is the pearl left by Emperor Hongwen among the people.

He believed that Emperor Hongwen also knew this very well, but why didn't Emperor Hongwen mention it to Lu Yaoyao?

Furthermore, why didn’t Emperor Hongwen explicitly refuse Lu Yaoyao’s proposal for marriage?

There's something weird about this.

"Yan Yi."

When his voice fell, the study door was pushed open, and Yan walked in, cupping his hands and saying, "What are your orders, Your Majesty?"

"Sit down, I am a little confused about something. Please help me analyze it."

Yan Yi responded and walked to the edge and sat down.

King Jin told what Lu Yaoyao just said and the biggest doubt in his heart.

After hearing what he said, Yan was stunned.

"What do you mean Your Majesty?"

"He must know that the princess is his daughter, right?"

"You must know, Huo Di told His Majesty everything."

"Yes, then why did he do this?"

One thing to mention here is why the King of Jin knew so much about Emperor Hongwen’s private matters.

Because he had someone in the palace, and this person was Emperor Hongwen's most trusted commander Huo Di.

Otherwise, with Huo Di's methods, he could fool both the Queen and the Duke of Zhen. How could he, the King of Jin, know the true results of Jiangdong's investigation?

But it was precisely because of this that he felt extremely confused, why did Emperor Hongwen do this?
