Imperial Palace.

Xiao Yeyang presented the results of his investigation into officials affiliated with the Eight Princes Party to His Majesty, then stood silently to the side waiting.

As the Emperor looked over the materials in his hand and nodded with satisfaction, he looked at Xiao Yeyang contentedly after he finished, "You’ve handled the task well, much more efficient than those at the Ministry of Justice."

Xiao Yeyang did not take all the credit for himself, modestly saying, "This is because I’ve crossed paths with the Eight Princes Party several times before and am familiar with their mode of conduct. Plus, with the information previously collected by the Ministry of Justice officials, I was able to successfully complete the task His Majesty assigned."

The Emperor nodded with a smile, pleased that his nephew didn’t claim all the credit and knew to show consideration for his colleagues and subordinates, "I understand. Once this matter is settled, both the Jinling Guard and the Ministry of Justice will receive commendation."

Xiao Yeyang bowed, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

The Emperor turned back to the documents, pondering how to deal with the officials listed, then waved his hand to indicate that Xiao Yeyang could leave.

Xiao Yeyang stood still without moving.

After a moment, when the Emperor noticed Xiao Yeyang hadn’t left, he asked, "Is there anything else?"

Xiao Yeyang dropped the seriousness he had when reporting on the task, a shy and awkward smile appearing on his face as he delicately reminded, "Your Imperial Uncle, Uncle and Yiyi have entered the capital."

The Emperor’s heart stirred, setting aside the materials in his hands and looking at Xiao Yeyang with a smile, "So what?"

Seeing the Emperor not continuing the conversation, Xiao Yeyang got straight to the point and knelt down to plead, "Yeyang requests Your Imperial Uncle to grant a marriage."

The Emperor shook his head with a laugh, "Look at how anxious you are."

Xiao Yeyang gave an embarrassed smile, "Your Imperial Uncle, I will soon come of age and should also marry."

The Emperor stood up, walked over to Xiao Yeyang, extended his hand to help him up, and said with a sigh, "Time flies fast; you’re already of age." He then patted Xiao Yeyang on the shoulder.

"Your marriage to the Yan Family’s eldest daughter was arranged by your mother, and I certainly will not obstruct it. However, as this concerns your lifelong happiness, shouldn’t you inform your father, the Prince?"

Xiao Yeyang immediately frowned.

Seeing his nephew’s reluctance and knowing he hadn’t returned to the Prince Residence since coming back to the capital, the Emperor felt somewhat helpless, "You can’t avoid dealing with your father on this matter. You’ll eventually have to return to the Prince Residence to marry, won’t you?"

Xiao Yeyang’s frown deepened as he looked at the Emperor, "Your Imperial Uncle, the Ma Family mother and son are best at putting on a show. After getting married, I don’t want to live in the Prince Residence."
