“Ninth Prince, you’re here.” Princess Xuehua held a delicate PASTRIES in her hand as she walked into the room. “Mother, I specially prepared pastries and yunwu tea that both you and His Highness both like. Please sit down with His Highness. We can talk about it slowly.”

Upon seeing this, the Empress Dowager frowned displeasedly and asked, “Why are you here?”

Princess Xuehua instinctively thought that the Empress Dowager was angry because she couldn’t convince the Ninth Prince. She quickly put on a concerned look and said,” Mother, I’m here to help you. Ninth Prince, 1 heard that you entered the palace, so I hurried over to advise you. You have to listen to Mother and not marry that Su Qian…”

As Su Qian followed Nanny Jin and stopped outside the door, she heard Princess Xuehua’s words.

Instantly, everyone fell into a deathly silence.

Su Qian didn’t say anything but only raised her eyebrows lightly.

It seemed that the Empress Dowager had intended to force Xiao Yan to break off the engagement in front of her.

…..

She had always heard that Xiao Yan was cold to others but obedient to the Empress Dowager. Su Qian curled her lips into a smile and her phoenix eyes swept towards Xiao Yan with a hint of pride.

Xiao Yan had been looking at Su Qian since the moment she appeared. As their eyes met, there was no sign of discomfort in Xiao Yan’s eyes. He remained calm and composed as if everything was under his control.

As Su Qian appeared, Princess Xuehua hastily put on a look as if she had misspoken, covering her mouth with her hand and hastily said, “Oh, I’m sorry Miss Su. I didn’t mean to sow discord. The Empress Dowager just spoke to me this morning and mentioned that your elopement six years ago was a great disrespect. Moreover, you have two children. So if Ninth Prince were to marry you, it would affect his reputation. I’m sorry for making things difficult for you.”

“Imperial Grandmother even said such words?” Xiao Yan’s tone was calm, but his meaningful gaze swept toward the Empress Dowager.

“Of course not!” The Empress Dowager couldn’t help feeling embarrassed and shook her head calmly. “1 have never said that. Nanny Jin, have you heard this me say such things?”

“I have never heard of it.” Nanny Jin cooperatively pretended to be clueless with the Empress Dowager.

The other palace servants lowered their heads when they heard this and dared not make a sound.

Since the Empress Dowager had spoken and denied saying anything. No matter who heard it or not, they had to pretend not to know.

Princess Xuehua was stunned. “Mother, I’m not lying. Weren’t you against Ninth Prince marrying Miss Su?”

Su Qian watched this scene quietly, feeling that things were getting out of her control.

“Impudent!” Before Xiao Yan could react, the Empress Dowager’s face darkened. “When did 1 say that Xiao Jiu can’t marry Qianqian? Who gave you the audacity to accuse me!”

Princess Xuehua was stunned and looked at the Empress Dowager blankly, not expecting to be reprimanded. “Empress Dowager, but Su Qian has two children. How can such a person be worthy of Ninth Prince…” she said.

“What’s wrong with having two children? I think that Su Qian’s two children are good!” The Empress Dowager said loudly. Not only was Princess Xuehua stunned, but also Nanny Jin and the others outside the door were also shocked.

Everyone was doubting their ears and wondering what kind of magic potion the Ninth Prince had given to the Empress Dowager to make her speak such words of approval for Su Qian and her children.

Su Qian was even more stunned. She looked at the Empress Dowager but saw no hint of falsehood on her face. It could be seen that the Empress Dowager’s words must have come from the bottom of her heart..
