Jia Ke couldn't take his eyes away when he looked at Xue Baoqin. Now he seemed to react after hearing Xue Baochai's words. Then he stepped forward to support Xue Baoqin and said with a smile: "Since my sister has come to the palace, let's stay a few more days. What's wrong with that?"

Just tell me what you like."

This was the first time Xue Baoqin saw the emperor Jia Ke. Now that he was holding his hand, his face turned red, but Xue Baoqin did not dare to struggle.

Xue Baochai saw Jia Ke at the side, grabbing her sister. Although this was exactly her plan, at the gate of the palace, Jia Ke's gaffe was afraid of being spread out, which would be criticized or not.

So Xue Baochai hurriedly invited Jia Ke to enter the Chengqian Palace to talk. Jia Ke seemed to have just reacted, and then let go of Xue Baoqin's hand and walked into the Chengqian Palace with a smile.

Jia Ke entered Chengqian Palace. At this time, a banquet was already held in the side hall of Chengqian Palace.

Jia Ke sat in the middle, with Xue Baochai and Xue Baoqin accompanying Jia Ke on both sides.

Jia Ke is not as cautious as before, so he naturally drinks a few more drinks in front of the beauty.

Unknowingly, Jia Ke became a little drunk, so he took advantage of the drunkenness to hold Xue Baoqin in his arms and never let go.

Xue Baochai, who was sitting on the other side of Jia Ke, seemed to have not seen this incident and kept pouring wine and serving dishes to Jia Ke.

And now Jia Ke's mind is on the beauty Xue Baoqin, so why is he in the mood to drink? Jia Ke hugged Xue Baoqin and dragged her directly into the harem.

Xue Baochai will naturally arrange everything for Jia Ke.

So that night, Jia Ke enjoyed being a groom again.

When Jia Ke woke up the next morning, he was very satisfied with Xue Baoqin, who was still crying in his arms.

Jia Ke looked at Xue Baoqin who still hadn't woken up on the bed, so he gently pulled out his arm, covered her with a quilt, and quietly left the bedroom and went outside.

Li Gui, who was waiting outside, saw Jia Ke coming out and immediately ordered the palace maids and eunuchs to clean Jia Ke.

After Jia Ke finished dressing, he told the palace maid and eunuch beside him: "Xue Meiren hasn't woken up yet, so you don't need to disturb her."

After Jia Ke finished speaking, he left Chengqian Palace with satisfaction and went back to Qianqing Palace for breakfast.

After Jia Ke left, Xue Baochai appeared in front of Xue Baoqin's bedroom.

Then Xue Baochai gently pushed the door open and went in. At this time, Xue Baoqin had woken up and was now under the quilt, looking at the roof with blank eyes.

Xue Baochai came to the bedside, smiled and said to Xue Baoqin: "Congratulations to my sister, we sisters will have to help each other in the palace from now on."

Hearing Xue Baochai's words, Xue Baoqin came to his senses a little. Then he saw Xue Baochai sitting aside, his face immediately turned red, and he hid his head under the quilt and refused to come out.

Xue Baochai spent a lot of effort to pull Xue Baoqin out of the quilt.

"Why is my sister so shy? All women are like this."

Xue Baoqin asked hesitantly: "Sister, do you think the emperor will blame me for having already made an engagement?"

Xue Baochai shook his head and said: "I thought it was no big deal, it's just a small matter. I will send a letter to my brother later, and he will naturally understand the meaning. When the letter is sent to Mei Hanlin, he will

Naturally, I will call off the marriage in a wise manner."

Xue Baoqin felt relieved after hearing this. Although Xue Baoqin had the intention of clinging to Jia Ke to enjoy the glory and wealth, she was a traditional woman after all, and she still cared about her engagement.

That night, Xue Baochai wrote a letter and sent it to Xue Pan's current residence by his eunuch.

Xue Pan accepted the letter, and after reading it, he was a little confused about what happened to his sister. He actually brought Xue Baoqin to his side. Wasn't this a way of sharing his favor?

But Xue Pan still has some self-awareness. He knows that his IQ is like a firefly compared to his sister's.

So Xue Pan stopped thinking about other things and felt that as long as he followed his sister's instructions, there would be no mistakes.

So Xue Pan immediately ordered someone to call Xue Pan into his study, and then told him that the emperor had favored Xue Baoqin.

After Xue Biao heard this, his eyes immediately lit up with excitement.

Ever since Xue Biao brought his sister to the capital to join Xue Pan, he was extremely envious when he saw Xue Pan's current life. Now his sister has been favored by the emperor and will also be the empress of the palace in the future. Does that mean that she

Can he be like Xue Pan in the future?

In fact, Xue Pan didn't like the idiot Xue Pan, and felt that he was able to act unscrupulously in Beijing because of his sister.

Xue Pan is a straight man. After talking about Xue Baoqin, he directly said to Xue Pan: "Sister Baoqin has another troublesome matter, that is, she is engaged to Mei Hanlin. I thought we should write a letter and let Mei Hanlin tell her

The marriage was called off to avoid rumors spreading outside, which would be detrimental to sister Baoqin's future."

Xue Pan naturally understood the marriage, and naturally fully agreed with what Xue Baoqin said about breaking off the engagement.

So Xue Biao used the Four Treasures of the Study to write a document announcing the withdrawal of the engagement on the spot. Later, Xue Biao also wrote a letter to Mei Hanlin, asking him to be more sensible and not to make himself angry. In the end, everyone was unhappy.

This letter left the capital at high speed, and within a few days it was in the hands of Mei Hanlin, who was now an official in Changzhi Prefecture, Shanxi Province.

On this day, as soon as I returned to the inner house from the government office and drank a cup of tea in the study, the housekeeper came to report that someone from the Xue family in the capital had arrived.

After hearing this, Mei Hanlin did not dare to neglect and quickly ordered the messenger to come in.

In the past, Mei Hanlin would have been eager to avoid this marriage, but now it is different. The Xue family is a relative of the emperor. It is said that Xue Baochai was favored in the palace and gave birth to a child. Now the eldest child has been sealed.

The King of Qi.

With just this child, the Xue family can guarantee their wealth and prosperity for decades.

After a while, the housekeeper came in with a servant who was tired of work.

Although the man was dusty, his face was very proud. He didn't kowtow when he saw Mei Hanlin, he just cupped his hands and said, "I'm paying homage to Master Mei."

Mei Hanlin became unhappy when he saw that this family was so rude.

Mei Hanlin's housekeeper naturally saw the displeasure of their organization, so he said to the person next to him: "Which family teaches you the rules, and you are so ignorant. Why don't you kneel down and salute when you see my master?"

But the servant said nonchalantly: "My family is related to the emperor, and our girl is a concubine in the palace. I was very polite when I handed over to you just now."

Mei Hanlin didn't want to offend this servant yet, so he could only hold back his anger and said: "Since you are sent by the Xue family to deliver the letter, bring the letter to me."

After hearing Mei Hanlin's request for a letter, the man took out a large envelope from his arms and handed it to the butler at the side.

The housekeeper glared at the servant of the Xue family fiercely, then took the letter, held it in both hands and sent it to Mei Hanlin.

Mei Hanlin opened the big envelope and saw two letters inside.

Mei Hanlin looked at the covers of the two letters, picked the letter written by Xue Pan and opened it. The more he looked at it, the more he read, and finally the sweat on his face started to flow.

It turns out that Xue Pan did not hide anything in this letter and directly told Mei Hanlin that Xue Baoqin came to the palace to visit Xue Baochai. He did not want to be favored by the emperor. Now Xue Baoqin was already serving the emperor, and then he threatened Mei Hanlin and asked Mei Hanlin to retreat.

This marriage is a matter of convenience for everyone, otherwise, if the emperor finds out in the end, there will be no good fruit for their family.

Mei Hanlin put down Xue Pan's letter and opened another letter from Xue Pan to read.

This letter is roughly the same as the letter written by Xue Pan, but the tone is much more tactful. This letter also contains a Geng note that was originally escorted by both parties when they got engaged, and then a few hundred taels of silver notes, which were given by Mei Hanlin at that time.

Engagement gift.

After reading it, Mei Hanlin sighed silently, blaming himself for being a step too late. If his third son had been married to Xue Baoqin, there would not have been such a trouble today.

Mei Hanlin had no choice now. After all, his arms could not twist his thighs. Now he had to take a step back to open up the sky and step forward into an abyss.

Mei Hanlin was also a straightforward person. He used the Four Treasures of the Study to write a divorce document on the spot, and then ordered the housekeeper to go to the inner house to find his wife and brought Xue Qin's Gengjie.

Mei Hanlin took the Geng Tie, sealed the Geng Tie and the letter into an envelope, and then sent them to the Xue family servant.

"These are the documents for the annulment of the engagement and Baoqin's Geng Tie. You go back and hand them over to your master."

Now people were a little surprised to see Mei Hanlin so happy. When he came, he thought that Mei Hanlin would evade in every possible way, and then he would have to use words to threaten him. He didn't expect that Mei Hanlin saw the matter so clearly, and immediately

Agreed to break off the engagement.

"Thank you, Master Mei. I will report the truth to the master when I return. I also ask Master Mei to interact with our master more in the future. It will be a good thing to help each other in the future."

After hearing this, Mei Hanlin nodded repeatedly, and then ordered the housekeeper to fetch ten taels of silver and give it to this servant for the birth.

The family got the money and left in a hurry, because their organization had to wait impatiently for this matter. Xue Pan meant to call off the marriage before Xue Baoqin was granted the title, so as to avoid trouble in the future.

After a few days, this letter was delivered to Xue Pan's desk. Xue Pan read the letter again, with a proud smile on his face, and then he said to Xue Pan beside him: "How is it? I said

How dare he go against our wishes as an official with sesame seeds and mung beans? Look at this, the document to cancel the engagement has been written, and the Geng Tie is coming back. I will send someone to send a message to Baochai in the palace soon, asking her to

rest assured."

That night Xue Baochai received a message from her brother. When Xue Baochai told Xue Baoqin the news, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This marriage has always been a knot in Xue Baoqin's heart. At first, he was worried that Mei Hanlin would regret the marriage, but after he entered the palace and served Jia Ke, he was afraid that Mei Hanlin would rely on him.
