How could Xiao Yan not come? Just as he came out from the Ice Lake, he heard his subordinates say that the Empress Dowager had let Su Qian into the palace. He was so anxious that he couldn’t continue cultivating and hurriedly rushed over. “Imperial Grandmother, where’s Qianqian? ”

Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager stopped laughing but frowned in disgust.” What do you mean, child? So you rushed into the palace not to see me, but to see Su Qian?”

“Imperial Grandmother, I am serious about Qian Qian,” Xiao Yan said with a smile on his lips facing the Empress Dowager.” I only want to marry her. Imperial Grandmother, please grant my wish.”

“Humph.” The Empress Dowager snorted coldly and let go of Xiao Yan’s hand. She walked towards the main seat angrily, “I thought you were a filial child coming to see me, but it turns out you were worried that I’ll mistreat your sweetheart and bully her.”

“Imperial Grandmother, I dare not. I know that your heart is kind and would not make things difficult for my beloved,” Xiao Yan said with a smile.

The Empress Dowager felt a little embarrassed upon hearing Xiao Yan’s words.

She had originally intended to make things difficult for Su Qian, but Xiao Yan was really to her liking, so she couldn’t bring herself to be too harsh on her.

…..
“I’m sorry to disappoint you, but 1 had her copy the scriptures for two hours.” The Empress Dowager raised her chin and said proudly.

“Don’t be upset, Your Highness. The Empress Dowager did punish Miss Su, but she also rejected her request to cancel the engagement. She even rewarded Miss Su and the children with royal cuisine,” Nanny Jin said with a smile.

“1 knew it, Imperial Grandmother would like Qian Qian.” Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief. Then, he maneuvered his wheelchair towards the Empress Dowager. “Imperial Grandmother…”

“Don’t call me.” The Empress Dowager frowned, “Don’t think that I don’t know what you’re trying to say. You want me to agree to your marriage with Su Qian, don’t you? Let me tell you, you should give up on this idea as soon as possible.”

“Imperial Grandmother, didn’t you always wish for your grandson to be happy? If you let me marry Qian Qian, then I will be happy.” Xiao Yan’s starry eyes were shining as he looked at the Empress Dowager.

“Nonsense.” The Empress Dowager was truly angry this time. She looked at Xiao Yan and her brows frowned into a knot. “Xiao Jiu, why do you insist on being so obstinate? There are so many women in the world. 1 only hope that you marry a virtuous girl and live a good life.”

After saying this, the Empress Dowager seemed to have thought of something sad and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. “You’ve suffered a lot these years when I wasn’t in the palace. Since I’m back now, I won’t let anyone have the chance to ridicule you. You are my grandson, I will definitely arrange the best for you. Su Qian is good, but she’s still the mother of two children. If you marry her, what will the people say about you? Isn’t this breaking my heart?”

Nanny Jin couldn’t bear to see this.

She had served the Empress Dowager for decades and knew that the only person the Empress Dowager cared about was the Ninth Prince. Six years ago, when the Su family deliberately married the unfavored Su Qian to him. Wasn’t that a kind of humiliation to him?

Whenever the Empress Dowager thought about it, she would be heartbroken. How could she bear to let her beloved grandson marry a married woman and be ridiculed by the world?

“Go down with the others, Nanny. I want to have a private conversation with the Empress Dowager,” Xiao Yan ordered coldly.

“Okay…” Nanny Jin didn’t dare to disobey and quickly stepped back.

As Nanny Jin and the palace servants left, the doors of the palace were closed, and only the grandmother and grandson remained.

“Imperial Grandmother, why do you think I am insisting on marrying Qianqian?” Xiao Yan asked..
