Chapter 249: Chapter 249
"You don’t need to feel embarrassed, listen to me." Jun Ning said heartily, "From now on, you will be my playmate."
As Jun Ning spoke, she stepped forward and hugged Lan Xihe.
She liked tenacious girls who knew how to show gratitude.
Lan Xihe was exactly that.
Lan Xihe was still extremely anxious, especially when Jun Ning took the initiative to hug her, making her even more fearful.
What virtue or ability did she have to deserve such esteem and favor from the rich family’s lady?
Lan Xihe made up her mind that in the future she must repay Jun Ning well.
Thinking this, she also reached out and hugged Jun Ning.
Madam Qi watched the two young ladies embracing, with some worry in her heart.
"Yiyi, have you told your Emperor father and Imperial Concubine mother about your wish for Lan Xihe to be your playmate? Did they agree?"
Madam Qi vaguely felt they would not possibly agree.
After all, with Jun Ning’s current status and the Emperor’s favor she received, too many people were eyeing her covetously.
The Emperor and Princess Consort Hua, no, she was now Imperial Concubine Hua, they certainly wouldn’t agree.
Lan Xihe was frightened when she heard Madam Qi mention ’Emperor father’ and ’Imperial Concubine mother’.
She thought Jun Ning was just the daughter of a wealthy family, not expecting her to be a princess?
She released Jun Ning, trembling all over, hurriedly knelt before Jun Ning, "Your Highness, this humble girl has offended you."
"No offense, no offense, stand up." Jun Ning helped Lan Xihe up, affectionately linking arms with her, and turned to Madam Qi, "...Emperor father and Imperial Concubine mother will surely agree."
"Are you sure?" Madam Qi questioned.
Jun Ning: Actually uncertain. But, she would try hard to persuade her Emperor father and Imperial Concubine mother to agree.
Emperor Yongning, upon learning that Jun Ning picked up a little beggar and insisted on having her as a playmate, always accompanying her, immediately became furious.
"This is simply nonsense."
"How can she randomly pick up a beggar to be her playmate?"
"Isn’t she afraid that this little beggar could be a spy from another country? Or someone deliberately sent to get close to her, ready to take her life at any opportunity?"
It wasn’t that Emperor Yongning was deliberately thinking ill of people, but having lived for most of his life, what kind of things hadn’t he seen?
Some things appear to be a sugar coating, but in reality, they are bullets! Dıscover more novels at 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝘯𝘦𝘵
They could be life-threatening.
"I absolutely will not agree, this is too dangerous." Emperor Yongning looked at Xiao Lizi, who was waiting on the side, "Xiao Lizi, go personally to tell Yiyi to drive that little beggar away, otherwise, she shouldn’t return to the palace to see me."
"Your Majesty, is this really necessary?"
Xiao Lizi, who stayed by Emperor Yongning’s side day and night, knew best how much the Emperor valued Jun Ning.
Jun Ning had only been out of the palace for a few days, and he kept thinking about her day and night. How could he possibly truly not let her return to the palace?
"What are you questioning?" Emperor Yongning glared at Xiao Lizi, "If not true, then is it false?"
Alright, Xiao Lizi personally went to the National Guardian General Mansion to tell Jun Ning about this, hoping Jun Ning would take it seriously, listen to His Majesty, and drive that little beggar away.
