"Rise!"
Zhao Zheng looked at Princess Lan Ling and asked with a smile,"Lan Ling, why are you here today?"
"Imperial Brother, I'm only here to visit Imperial Sister-in-law."”
It could be seen that Princess Lan Ling was a little afraid of Zhao Zheng.
This was because the previous fatuous ruler had never been friendly to his siblings.
The former emperor did not leave many children behind. The only male was Zhao Zheng, and there were only two princesses. One was Lan Ling, and the other princess had already married and gone to her own fief to live a small life.
Usually, the fatuous ruler could only see Princess Lan Ling.
The previous fatuous ruler hated the Empress. Lan Ling was kind and could not bear to see the Empress live a miserable life, so she often came to see the Empress and gave her some help within her power. Her actions were seen by the fatuous ruler, and naturally, even this younger sister of hers was annoyed.
Therefore, every time the fatuous ruler saw Lan Ling, he would not look happy. This caused Lan Ling to have a psychological trauma towards Zhao Zheng.
"Lan Ling, you're so thoughtful. I'm often busy with government affairs, and Yuzhen really doesn't have anyone to talk to in the harem.”
Hearing this, Lan Ling raised her head in surprise.
It was hard to believe that Zhao Zheng would say such a thing.
"Sister Ling, I told you that your Imperial Brother has changed. Do you believe me now?" Xiao Yuzhen said with a smile.”
" This..." Lan Ling was still in disbelief.
Zhao Zheng smiled and said," Lan Ling, in the past, it was your Imperial Brother who was insensible. He neglected the Empress and neglected you. In the future, you and I siblings should get together more. I don't have many close relatives left."”
Zhao Zheng was very serious when he said this. He wasn't just being polite.
Because in the original novel, Lan Ling had a noble character. In the end, she chose to end her life for the sake of righteousness. If the original protagonist was not too shameless, Lan Ling would not have had any contact with him.
For a woman to have such a temperament, even if she wasn't Zhao Zheng's sister, Zhao Zheng would still think highly of her.
However, when Lan Ling heard Zhao Zheng's words, her pretty face was filled with confusion.
She really couldn't believe that the person who could say such words was her unkind and unkind Imperial Brother.
Seeing Lan Ling in a daze, Xiao Yuzhen was afraid of the Emperor's silence, so she quickly added,""The emperor is right. Sister Ling, don't you think so?”
As Xiao Yuzhen spoke, she approached Lan Ling and secretly poked her with her hand.
"Ah!" Lan Ling finally came back to her senses and hurriedly said,""Yes, yes, Imperial Brother. Lan Ling will remember.”
Zhao Zheng smiled, not angry.
"Oh right, Lan Ling, I remember that you looked for me before and wanted to cancel the engagement with the Wei family, right?”
Hearing this, Lan Ling's eyes immediately lit up. She nodded vigorously and said,"Yes, Imperial Brother, the second son of the Wei family is not a good match. Lan Ling does not want to marry him!”
After saying that, Lan Ling felt a little regretful and looked at Zhao Zheng in fear.
She was afraid that Zhao Zheng would reprimand her for her actions as usual.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Zheng smiled and said,"I have also heard of the actions of that brat from the Wei family. This child is mischievous by nature and is indeed a waste of being a son. My royal sister is naturally beautiful. Lan Ling, don't worry. I will make the decision for you. Since you don't like the Wei family's kid, I will reject this marriage for you.”
Part of the reason why Zhao Zheng could agree so readily was to avoid Lan Ling's tragic fate, but more importantly, it was because in the original novel, the Wei family also wanted to rebel later. Perhaps the Wei Clan had followed the dragon.
Zhao Zheng would have to deal with a traitor like the Wei family sooner or later. Naturally, he would not marry his sister to the Wei family.
At this moment, Lan Ling was both surprised and delighted.
She had come to the harem this morning just to see the Empress and give her some help.
He didn't expect to see a completely different scene when he arrived at Earth Peace Palace.
The once deserted Palace of Earthly Tranquility was no longer there. All the palace maids and eunuchs were present, making the Palace of Earthly Tranquility much livelier.
Not only that, but all the expenses of Earth Tranquility Palace were also over-allocated.
When she met the Imperial Sister-in-law, the Imperial Sister-in-law told her that the Emperor had changed. Lan Ling was still skeptical.
Only now did Lan Ling believe that her royal brother had really changed!
Otherwise, his previous Imperial Brother would not have said such words. He even thought that Lan Ling's request to cancel the engagement was to bring shame to the Imperial Family and damage the face of the Tian Family.
"Lan Ling thanks Imperial Brother for your help, thanks Imperial Brother for your love!”
As Lan Ling spoke, she directly knelt down.
Because as a princess, she naturally understood that this marriage was set when the former emperor was still alive. It would not be easy to break off the engagement now.
If Imperial Brother really broke off the engagement for her, he would probably have to bear a lot of pressure!
