“Who?” Consort An was stunned for a moment and asked in surprise.

Zhou Huaiming’s market was not bad, but that was for people who intended to cling to the Zhou family.

Her family did not lack power and influence. There was no need for her daughter to choose an old man who was eight years older than her.

“Zhou Huaiming, General Zhou’s second son, the Emperor’s second cousin.” Mingyu replied directly.

“Why are you suddenly asking about him?” After confirming that she had not misheard, Consort An stepped forward without batting an eyelid.

“I just suddenly feel that he’s different from usual.”

“How is it different?”

“In the past, although he wasn’t as cold as the emperor, he still had an appearance that kept people a thousand miles away.

“But that day at the little princess’s one-month-old banquet, I realized he seemed different. Although the questions he asked were a little childish, his smile was very sincere.”

“Do you still remember the time when the Zhou family was almost raided?” Consort An felt a headache when she saw that she was really interested.

“I remember. Back then, the Zhou family was almost exterminated by the retired Emperor. If it wasn’t for the Empress Dowager, the three of them wouldn’t have survived.”

“Yes, the matter back then was mainly framed by the Empress’s faction, and it seems that Prime Minister Su’s shadow was also involved.

“Now that those people are all dead and their revenge has been taken, he is naturally much happier.”

“That’s true. Then what was his family like before the accident?”

“He’s the Emperor’s study companion. His knowledge and martial arts aren’t bad, but he loves to eat.

“I heard that back then, he even went to steal from the imperial kitchen for a bite of food. I didn’t pay much attention to anything else.”

Mingyu nodded in understanding. It seemed that his personality had something to do with his family. The person she saw in the past was not the real him.

Consort An saw that she was distracted, and her heart skipped a beat. “Don’t tell me you’ve fallen for him? He’s eight years older than you.”

“No, I just feel that he’s different from what I remember.” Mingyu shook his head repeatedly.

Consort An did not believe it at all. If Mingyu did not like him, why would she pay so much attention to a grown man?

That night, Consort An told her husband about this. “Hubby, what do you think we should do about this?”

“I think the Zhou family’s kid is not bad. Although he’s a little old, he hasn’t been married before.

“The key was that he had never been heard of entering the brothels for so many years. At least he was not a playboy.

“Besides, his ability is not bad, and she would have no problem matching Mingyu.

“Most importantly, the Zhou family’s family background is comparable to ours.”

“The problem lies in the family background. I’m mainly worried that the retired Emperor won’t agree.”

“Every Emperor has his own courtiers. As long as the current Emperor has no objections, it will be easy for the retired Emperor to agree. I’ll take the time to ask the Zhou family’s kid for his opinion in the next two days.” King An replied.

“If he is interested in Mingyu, then we can probe the Emperor’s intentions.”

“Let Ze Peng go. He’s a junior. If he fails, we can just treat it as a joke.”

“Alright, I’ll let him know tomorrow.”

On the second day, after King An’s son received the news, he sent someone to keep an eye on Zhou Huaiming, but Zhou Huaiming was so busy that he was nowhere to be seen.

Just as he was about to give up, Zhou Huaiming finally entered the palace on the afternoon of the third day.

He immediately got someone to call Mingyu over, and when Zhou Huaiming left the palace, they ‘accidentally’ bumped into each other.

Zhou Huaiming saw the two siblings and was surprised. He bowed. “Greetings, Princess Ming Yu and Heir An.”

“Greetings. It’s fate that we bumped into each other. The two of us are going to eat barbecue. Do you want to join us?” Heir An asked..
