C35 Well-matched

"What, what are all of you doing?" Right at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded out. It was mixed with shock, trembling, and even more so, disbelief.

Ye Lanjue narrowed his eyes, the corners of his lips curled up. He then loosened his grip on her shoulder, and in the next moment, increased the distance between him and Tang Kexin.

"This son pays his respects to the empress." In just an instant, Ye Lanjue had completely returned to his usual calm and tranquil state.

"Third Prince, no need to be so courteous." She looked at him, but her heart was unable to calm down.

"Xin'er, come over." The empress tried her best to control her emotions, but her voice was still shaky.

"Yes." "En," Tang Ke Xin replied softly. Because her head was lowered, he couldn't see the expression on her face.

"Come back with me." The empress didn't ask anything, but her voice wasn't as gentle as usual.

"Yes." Tang Ke Xin still kept her head down, but her voice didn't sound too weird.

Along the way, the empress's face grew more and more solemn. She turned her head back several times to look at Tang Kexin behind her, but didn't say a word.

By the time they reached the palace, the empress had dismissed all her servants, leaving only her and Tang Kexin in the room.

Tang Ke knew in his heart that the empress had something to say.

"The third prince is a man of both martial arts and literature. He is extremely talented and peerless in the world. He is indeed very outstanding." The Empress looked at Tang Ke Xin and pondered for a moment before slowly speaking.

Tang Ke was stunned when he heard the empress's words. He raised his eyes with some doubt and some surprise. What did the empress mean by this?

Such sudden praise for Ye Lanji, could it be?

She still remembered that the empress had told her to find another one for her after annulling Mu Shaoyi's engagement.

Seeing the surprise and puzzlement on Tang Ke's face, the empress secretly heaved a sigh of relief. If Xin'er was interested in the third prince, hearing her say so would definitely reveal the shyness of a little woman. At this moment, her heart was only filled with surprise and puzzlement.

"His Highness is too cold, it's hard to get along with him." The empress thought that Tang Kexin's illness was just right, so she tried to use the simplest of words, hoping that she would understand.

"Right." Tang Kexin nodded her head in agreement. He was indeed too cold.

"The third prince is deep and reserved, hard to fathom." The empress continued, but her voice was clearly much more relaxed.

"Right." Tang Kexin nodded her head once again. This made her agree even more. That man was far from being unfathomable. He was simply unfathomable.

At this moment, Tang Ke Xin completely understood the empress's intentions. He knew that this wasn't what he had guessed, so he heaved a huge sigh of relief. The empress had scared him to death.

"A woman's greatest happiness in this life is to be able to marry a man who truly loves and loves you and can protect you for the rest of your life. As a prince of Dayuan, Your Highness' heart is one with very little time." Seeing Tang Kexin nod, the empress's solemn expression slowly faded. It could be seen that Xin'er really didn't have that kind of mindset towards the Third Prince. However, in order to be safe, she still needed to remind Xin'er of this.

As a man, Night Tide was indeed unparalleled in this world. He was the focus of all and was admired by tens of thousands. However, as his husband, he was afraid ?

A man like that, with his heart and soul in the world, didn't have much space for a woman. Therefore, it was impossible to love a woman wholeheartedly, and with his identity and status, there would definitely be many women around him in the future.

It was impossible for a man like him to not seek the position of prince. As long as he had that intention, he would be in danger both openly and covertly.

If Xin'er were to really marry him, she would definitely be in the same danger.

She only wanted her heart to be safe, happy, happy, and nothing else.

"Yes, I know." Hearing the empress's words, Tang Ke was deeply moved. If that was the case, most people definitely wouldn't say it. The most likely scenario would be a mother confidently telling her daughter in private.

If the Queen had a bit of selfishness, perhaps she would think of a way to get her to marry Ye Lan Jue. It would definitely be beneficial for Ye Wu Chen that way.

"Come here." The empress finally smiled and stretched out her hand to grasp onto Tang Kexin's hand. She pulled her into the inner room and pulled out a beautiful and exquisite garment. "Come, give it a try. Let's see if it fits."

Tang Ke was shocked once again. The empress had made the clothes herself. Yesterday, she had seen the empress stitching the clothes, but she hadn't thought that the empress would actually make them for her.

The empress actually made clothes for her?

When he thought back to the night before, when the empress had been sitting under the lantern, stitching clothes together with a gentle smile, Tang Ke suddenly felt a warm feeling in his heart. His nose was slightly sore.

In the modern world, she was an orphan. No one had ever treated her like this before.

In the Prime Minister's Estate, the Prime Minister's wife doted on her and loved her a lot. However, she was not as meticulous as the empress, and the feeling she gave off was deep in her heart.

"Hmm, Xin'er is so beautiful." After Tang Kexin changed her clothes, the empress looked at her face full of smiles. The more she looked at her, the more satisfied she became.

The corners of Tang Kexin's lips curled up as she lightly smiled. It was very warm and very soft.

"Esteemed Empress, we're already prepared. Are we going over now?" Just then, the respectful voice of a palace maid came from outside the door.

"Yes." The empress replied in a low voice, pulling at Tang Ke's heart as she walked out. "Let's go. I'll bring you to the Qing-Yun Garden. It's too hot today."

Qing Yin Garden, the palace's holy land, the quiet and serene lake, the shade of trees, even though it was a hot summer day, it was exceptionally cool. Of course, people like this couldn't go to this kind of place.

Usually, only the emperor and empress could attend. Ordinary imperial concubines weren't qualified, but the fourth prince was a regular visitor there.

Usually the empress rarely went, but today Tang Kexin came and it was especially hot, so the empress wanted to bring her there.

Since ancient times, there was no air-conditioning, not even a fan. Such a hot day was indeed torturous. With such a good place, Tang Ke was naturally happy.

However, after entering the garden, he saw two men playing chess above the lake. One of them was Ye Lan Chen, and the other was Ye Lan Jue.

Thinking about what happened earlier, Tang Ke Xin's steps unconsciously paused. The empress's expression also seemed to change slightly.

"Imperial Mother, you have come." When Ye Lan Chen saw them, he stood up and shouted happily.

The empress could only walk over with Tang Kexin.

"You're lazy here again." The Empress looked at him with a smile in her eyes, but it was also clear that she was fond of him.

"Mother, your son isn't slacking off. Your son is playing chess with your third brother. I just ran into him on the way, so I pulled him over." Ye Wu Chen was really good at finding excuses.

"You want to play chess with His Highness? "Then I shall take a good look at him. Xin'er, come here and see how badly he lost." The empress smiled lightly as she brought Tang Kexin along with her and sat at the stone table.

The stone table wasn't that big. The empress sat on one side, while Tang Ke Xin sat on the other. She sat opposite of Ye Lan Jue, not far from him.

"Muhou, is that what you say about your son? "How do you know this son will lose?" Ye Lan Chen slightly tilted his mouth and protested in a low voice. However, when he looked at Ye Lan Jue, it was obvious that he was lacking in confidence.

"Third Imperial Brother, let's continue." He sat down gloomily, looking amused.

Tang Ke looked at the chessboard on the table and chuckled to himself. It would only take a few minutes for the third prince to win, but the third prince didn't seem to be in a hurry to do so.

"Xin`er, I've already sent someone to the Mu Manor to discuss the cancellation of your engagement with Mu Shaoyi." The empress looked at the movements of the Falling Tide Chess, her eyes twinkling as she spoke.

When Tang Ke Xin heard the empress's words, she rejoiced inwardly. She never expected the empress to be so quick. Of course, she couldn't display her emotions too clearly.

He picked up the tea from the palace maid on the table and took a sip, concealing some of his emotions.

"I think that you and Chen'er are a good match. If we cancel the marriage between you and Mu Shaoyi, you and Chen'er can ?" The empress had this thought in mind from the very beginning, and she felt that she could try out Xin Er's and Chen'er's intentions.

Of course, the reason she said this in front of Ye LanJue was to test out his reaction.
