The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 1177

[Chapter 1177 The Dinner Party Ends]

When the dinner was over, Lin Tian and Chen Huifang returned to the Prime Minister’s Mansion. The Empress wanted Chen Huifang to stay, and the Empress and the Emperor were very happy.

They had always wanted a daughter, but the Empress could not give birth to a princess for the Emperor. Now that they recognized Chen Huifang as their goddaughter, they finally had a daughter, and they also wanted to get closer to Chen Huifang.

Therefore, the Emperor and the Empress wanted to keep Chen Huifang in the palace tonight, but the dinner lasted so long that Chen Huifang felt that it was getting late, so she refused the invitation of the Emperor and the Empress and returned to the Prime Minister’s Mansion with Lin Tian. When

Lin Tian and Chen Huifang returned to the Prime Minister’s Mansion together, they did not take a carriage, but chose to walk back.

At this time, the city of Jizhou, the capital of Yan State, was no longer as noisy as when they came. The people in the capital were about to rest. There were only a few houses on both sides of the street with lights on, so the streets were unusually quiet at this time.

When Lin Tian and Chen Huifang first walked on the street, they did not feel the awkward atmosphere between them, but later they also felt this weird atmosphere.

In order to break this awkward atmosphere, Lin Tian also thought of a way in his heart that day. In the end, Lin Tian turned his head to Chen Huifang, but Lin Tian did not speak, just looked at Chen Huifang carefully.

Chen Huifang also felt Lin Tian’s gaze. She wanted to wait for Lin Tian to speak first, but Chen Huifang waited for a long time and did not hear Lin Tian’s voice, so she could only turn her head and look at Lin Tian.

“Brother Lin, why are you looking at me like this?”

Therefore, Chen Huifang, who was uncomfortable being looked at by Lin Tian, could only ask Lin Tian first.

“I was wondering, what did you do to the Queen Mother, how did you make the Queen Mother recognize you as her goddaughter for no reason?”

After hearing Chen Huifang’s question, Lin Tian also asked Chen Huifang.

“Brother Lin, what are you talking about? What do you mean I did something to the Queen Mother?”

After hearing what Lin Tian said, Chen Huifang also muttered to Lin Tian.

“However, when I heard what the Queen said, I was also very curious, so I asked the Queen. The Queen told me that she and the Emperor had a daughter, and if their daughter was still alive, she would be about my age.

The Queen also said that when she saw me, she thought of her daughter, and thought that she and the Emperor didn’t have a daughter, so she recognized me as her goddaughter.”

Chen Huifang spoke to Lin Tian again, and while talking to Lin Tian, the two of them also rushed towards home.

“Oh. The Queen and the Emperor had a daughter before? Why haven’t I heard about this? Didn’t the Queen say where her previous daughter went?”

After hearing what Chen Huifang said, Lin Tian also showed a puzzled expression on his face, so he asked Chen Huifang.

“The Queen didn’t say where her daughter went. She just mentioned it. When I was curious and wanted to ask her in detail, she interrupted me. I saw that the Queen was reluctant to mention this matter, so I didn’t ask more.”

After hearing what Lin Tian asked her, Chen Huifang lowered her head and thought for a while. A helpless expression appeared on her face, and then she spoke to Lin Tian.

After hearing what Chen Huifang said, Lin Tian’s heart was full of curiosity again. Although Lin Tian had not been here for a long time, Lin Tian’s memory of this life clearly remembered the gossip of all the officials in Jizhou, the capital of Yan State.

But in Lin Tian’s memory, he didn’t think that the emperor and the queen had a daughter. According to Lin Tian’s memory, the emperor of Yan State had a total of four sons, two of whom were born to the queen, and two were born to concubines. The emperor has no daughters so far.

Thinking of this, Lin Tian couldn’t help but become curious, so he naturally showed a thoughtful expression and did not answer Chen Huifang’s words.

“Brother Lin, Brother Lin, what’s wrong with you?”

After Chen Huifang finished speaking, she saw that Lin Tian was stunned, and his face showed a thoughtful expression. She didn’t see Lin Tian’s reaction, so Chen Huifang asked Lin Tian.

“Nothing, I just thought of something, but in my memory, the emperor and the queen didn’t have a daughter, they only had four sons. If what you said before, it happened eighteen or nineteen years ago, it is very likely that it happened before the emperor ascended the throne.”

After hearing Chen Huifang’s question, Lin Tian opened his mouth and said to Chen Huifang.

After hearing what Lin Tian said, Chen Huifang didn’t say much, just nodded slightly. In fact, he didn’t know how to respond to what Lin Tian said. At this time, he realized that he had to think about what Lin Tian said before, so he didn’t have the heart to answer what Lin Tian said.

“But what I didn’t expect was that you dared to refuse the emperor’s marriage. If the emperor took away your newly obtained status as Princess Anyang in anger, wouldn’t you be in tears?”

Lin Tian spoke to Chen Huifang again, but after Chen Huifang heard what Lin Tian said, her body suddenly froze, and her heart couldn’t help but become nervous.

Because Lin Tian mentioned the previous things, if she found her embarrassment and said it later, she didn’t know how to deal with it.

After Lin Tian said that, he didn’t say anything else. Obviously, he also thought of the reason why Chen Huifang refused the emperor’s marriage before, and his face couldn’t help but smile.

After seeing the smile on Lin Tian’s face, Chen Huifang also understood why Lin Tian laughed so much, so her already nervous mood became even more nervous.

“Brother Lin, what are you laughing at?”

Although she was nervous, Chen Huifang still asked Lin Tian why he was laughing.

“I thought of some things that I wanted to laugh about before, which was the reason why you refused the emperor’s marriage, so I laughed.”

Lin Tian laughed while answering Chen Huifang’s question.

When Chen Huifang saw the smile on Lin Tian’s face, her face instantly turned red, and she lowered her head shyly.

“Brother Lin, you are still smiling. Weren’t you the same before? I clearly saw that when Brother Lin heard that the emperor had granted him marriage, he was very nervous.”

Chen Huifang also spoke to Lin Tian, but her voice was pitifully small.
