Jiang Li smeared pepper water on his face and washed it off with water after a while to avoid being noticed.

But even so, her face was already swollen again after being so stimulated by the pepper water.

When Lan Yu came back with the food, she was immediately worried, "Why is it not getting better even after applying the medicine? Lan Yin, did you not apply it carefully?"

Lan Yin ignored her as always, but according to the past, Jiang Li should follow Lan Yu and question her.

But today, Jiang Li just said nonchalantly, "It's okay, don't affect my eating."

Lan Yu pursed her lips slightly aggrievedly, but Jiang Li was a little different today, so she didn't dare to say anything more.

Only after a moment did she speak again, "How about, princess, I'd better ask the imperial doctor to come over and take a look?"

Jiang Li said calmly, "My mother won't allow me to step out of the courtyard, so I'd better not make her angry."

In this case, Lan Yu had no choice but to give up.

Not long after lunch, Jiang Li was thinking about whether to take a nap when he heard movement outside, "The Emperor has arrived——"

Frowning slightly, Jiang Lixin said: Why did Emperor Qing come so quickly? He asked her to come back after taking a nap. After dealing with him, she was afraid that she would not be able to sleep anymore.

But she had no choice, after all, she was not at the point where she could do whatever she wanted, so she had to go out to greet him.

"I have met my father."

As soon as Emperor Qing entered the courtyard, he saw Jiang Li's swollen cheeks and was immediately startled, "Your face..."

Jiang Li hurriedly covered up his aggrieved look, then shook his head and said, "It's not a problem, I just made the queen angry..."

Emperor Qing immediately frowned. When the queen asked him to come over, she didn't say that she had beaten someone.

Looking at the swollen cheeks again, his frown deepened.

I just received a report in the morning, saying that Yang Jin and his party will arrive in the capital tomorrow. Why did the queen beat someone so seriously at this juncture?

As a result, the aggressive attitude he originally intended to reprimand Jiang Li was no longer easy to show.

Emperor Qing's tone softened a bit, "Let's go into the room and talk."

After entering the house, Emperor Qing didn't say much else, and went straight to the point, "Your mother said that several people who brought you to see you today were taken to the cold palace by you?"

Jiang Li nodded, "Father, don't worry, my daughter knows the rules. She just stopped by to deliver medicine to the emperor and did not break the rules."

Upon hearing the word "Brother Emperor", a trace of displeasure flashed across Emperor Qing's face.

Normally, when a son reaches the age of fourteen, he should be released from the palace and establish his own royal palace.

It's just that Qin Jue's presence is too low, and his identity is always neither embarrassing nor awkward, making people wonder how to deal with it.

Fortunately, he was self-aware and kept a low profile even in the palace, so he was left alone.

But I never expected that Jiang Li would look at her. I thought she knew the rules and would just play around in private, but I didn't expect that she now wanted to marry Qin Jue!

Thinking of this, Emperor Qing's face became even more displeased, "Ali, you are a sensible child, and your father never interfered with your mischief before."

"But you should know my father's attitude towards Qin Jue. You actually want to marry him. Are you deliberately disobeying your father?"

"My daughter doesn't dare!" Jiang Li immediately showed a look of fear.

"It's just...those young talents are good, but in their hearts they don't look down on their daughter."

Emperor Qing frowned, "How dare they! You are my own Princess Changrong, who dares to look down on you?"

Jiang Li looked aggrieved, "Father, you also know that my daughter doesn't have any great abilities, nor is she good at literature or martial arts. Even though they don't dare to disrespect me because of my father, they despise my daughter in their heart."

"My daughter doesn't have any big ambitions. She just wants to live a happy life...so why bother joining them?"

At this point, Jiang Li changed the topic and showed a bit of shyness on his face, "But Brother Five Emperors is different from them... He will never look down on me, but he can actually look up to me."

"Only with a husband like this can a daughter have the confidence to handle her, and only then can she feel that she can live a peaceful and smooth life in the future."

After a pause, she said tentatively, "And... after all, he is also the son of the father, and we are all members of the same family. I'm not afraid of him coveting anything from me, right?"

After Jiang Li finished speaking, Emperor Qing showed a thoughtful look on his face.

Although Emperor Qing didn't like Qin Jue, he didn't want to hear Jiang Li call him emperor brother, and he didn't want to hear others say that he was his heir.

But in fact, he had also seen Qin Jue when he grew up. His facial features were very similar to his own. It could be said that he was definitely his son from his appearance.

But even so, his attitude towards Qin Jue has been determined by his indifference since he was a child. It is impossible for him to have any major changes just because he knows that he is really his son.

But Jiang Li is right when he says something. The poor little boy who grew up in a cold palace without any education is indeed very good at handling things.

Jiang Li was confident, and he was even more confident.

His eyes flickered slightly. In the end, Emperor Qing did not directly reject Jiang Li's words.

"No matter what, you are a princess and can have better choices. I advise you to think about it again."

After saying that, he didn't stay any longer and walked directly outside.

When he walked out of the courtyard, he paused and said to the person sent by the queen to guard the courtyard, "Let's all leave. She is my princess, not a prisoner of your Fengyi Palace."

Emperor Qing's voice was loud and clear, obviously speaking specifically to Jiang Li.

Jiang Li was also very considerate, and immediately behind him his voice was full of gratitude, "Thank you, father!"

Okay, as expected of an emperor, he sells his wife without any hesitation.

This was telling her that the one who beat her and placed her under house arrest was the queen and had nothing to do with him.

He was on her side, and she had to remember how good he was.

Yes, old fox.

Watching Emperor Qing walk away, Jiang Li pouted, stretched, then turned and walked back, "Lanyin, pack out a clean bedding and prepare some exquisite food. Let's go to the cold palace."

Lan Yin immediately said, "It's enough for the slave to deliver the things. The princess doesn't have to go there herself."

Jiang Li curled his lips, "Who said I was going to deliver something?"

Lan Yin was confused, but Jiang Li didn't explain. He just said, "Just do as I say!"

So soon, the palace attendants sent by the palaces outside to see Jiang Li's bustle discovered that Jiang Li, with half of his cheeks red and swollen, took the palace maids and eunuchs to carry a lot of things, and then swaggered back into the cold palace.

After receiving the report from the palace people, many people took a breath of cold air... This Jiang Li, is the lard deceived?

The queen was so angry that even the emperor was alarmed. She actually dared to run into the cold palace right away!

The fourth princess couldn't help but look at the third princess with some curiosity, "Third sister, is that bastard in the cold palace really that good-looking? Will Jiang Li risk his life for him?"
