Ninety-seven Princess Chenxiang
Rong Zhan was also confused for a while, Xiao Rongshen hit the nail on the head, and he didn't know what to do. He can't stand up and ask the emperor for another reward, once he says so, he will definitely be charged with unfilial piety by Xiao Rongshen, or there will be rumors that he robbed women with his father.
Rong Zhan looked at Xiao Rongshen fiercely, but Xiao Rongshen replied to him with a smile on his face.
"County Lord, don't you want to? This is a great honor, and others can't ask for it. Zhao Shangshu also smiled and made a move.
In fact, Zhao Shangshu also knew that he shouldn't go against Rong Zhan, after all, his daughter Zhao Kezhen still had to marry Rong Zhan to live. If the conflict between Weng and his son-in-law is intensified, his daughter's life will not be easy in the future. But if he thinks about it carefully, his daughter is young and beautiful, and she is a smart and clever character, so it is easy for Xiao Rongzhan to empathize and say goodbye. Therefore, he naturally stood on Xiao Rongshen's side.
Yuan Xi didn't know who he was, but she knew in her heart that the people who were adding fuel and vinegar at this time were all masters who had conflicts with her in terms of interests. She is now a fish, and others are swordsmen!
Yuan Xi looked at the emperor deadly, only the emperor could save her at this time, as long as the emperor said nothing, no one would dare to say anything. But the emperor remained silent, and Xu couldn't think of any reason to refute it.
Time passed little by little, and the emperor and the ministers were still in a stalemate.
Suddenly, a crisp female voice shook everyone's eardrums: "Father, slow down!"
The courtiers should be prestigious, it was the emperor's fifteen-year-old princess Chenxiang, and she quickly entered the main hall.
Princess Chenxiang is the most favored of the emperor's children, and she has been spoiled by the emperor since she was a child, so she dared to break in regardless of the court.
"Chenxiang, this is the court meeting, what are you doing here?!" The emperor's face was a little angry, but more of it was still love, and even the reprimand was full of spoiling.
Princess Chenxiang glanced at Xiao Rongzhan and knelt down: "Father, my daughter has a big event, so she broke into the court meeting and asked her father to forgive her sins." β
The emperor was worried that no one would solve his problems for him, and Princess Chenxiang really broke through and sent charcoal in the snow.
"What's the matter?" As soon as the emperor took her words, he put Xiao Rongshen and Zhao Shangshu aside. The emperor thought to himself that even if these two people were no longer interested, they should step back now.
Princess Chenxiang stood beside Yuanxi as she spoke: "Father, my daughter heard that Brother Duanwang won a big battle, and I also heard that there was a strange woman who helped Brother Duanwang a lot, so my daughter came to see what kind of woman she was." β
She lowered her head, Yuan Xi raised her face slightly, and the two looked at each other, with love in their eyes. Maybe this is fate, Yuan Xi smiled: "The courtier Wei Yuan Xi pays a visit to Her Royal Highness the Princess." β
"You're the county lord who controlled the epidemic in Donglin Prefecture?"
Yuan Xi shook his head with a smile: "The princess has won a false award, and the courtiers dare not be ashamed." β
Princess Chenxiang blinked: "Father, give her to me!"
Xiao Rongshen guarded against Rong Zhan, but he didn't guard against his sister, he immediately stood up: "Little sister, the county lord is not an object, how can he give you this?"
Princess Chenxiang glanced at Rong Zhan and looked at Xiao Rongshen with a little pride: "Big brother, didn't you just present the county lord as an object to your father? Why can, but I can't?"
The words are not rough, in a word, Xiao Rongshen's hole cards were directly revealed. Rong Shen froze for a moment, and scolded in a low voice: "What are you talking about? When did I say that?"
Princess Chenxiang ignored him, turned to the emperor and knelt down to the emperor and said, "Father, my daughter has just been studying in the study, and the young master said that if you want to know the world, you have to see the outside world more." As a princess, her daughter can't leave the palace at will. Suddenly, I heard that the county lord of Donglin grew up in the people, so my daughter had a reluctant request, so I asked my father to let the county lord enter the palace to accompany her daughter to study, and by the way, tell my daughter about things outside the palace, so that my daughter could broaden her horizons. β
No wonder the emperor loves this daughter, he really has two brushes at a critical time, and he solves the problem by laughing and scolding.
The emperor finally had a step, so he got off the donkey and said, "It's naturally a good thing that you are willing to grow." I will allow you to play. β
Princess Chenxiang glanced at Xiao Rongshen proudly, with a posture of being angry and angry. When her gaze fell on Rong Zhan, the two of them smiled.
This farce finally ended with Princess Chenxiang's brutal and willful manner, and the emperor was gracious again, rewarding the Wei Mansion with 10,000 more brocades, golden flowers and wine.
Yuan Xi kowtowed and thanked him, and Princess Chenxiang couldn't wait to pull Yuan Xi out of the hall. The courtiers regained their calm and began their deliberations.
Princess Chenxiang pulled Yuanxi all the way to her own dormitory, Cheng'an Palace, and then laughed like a naughty boy: "This time, the eldest brother is going to have a crooked nose." β
"The courtiers have thanked the princess. Yuan Xi was about to bow down, but was pulled by Princess Chenxiang, she said with a smile: "I have the best relationship with the second brother, I can't watch him being put together by the eldest brother!"
Princess Chenxiang has never liked to read, just now she just used the young master as a disguise, she is always energetic when she does other things, but every time she picks up a book, she is sleepy. As soon as he entered the Wenyuan Hall in the morning, he dropped his pen and ran away, and the young master was looking for her in the palace.
Princess Chenxiang was talking to Yuan Xi, she raised her head suddenly, and suddenly her face was bitter: "It's over, it's over!" She grabbed Yuan Xi: "Don't say you've seen me, I'm going to hide first!"
Before Won-hee could figure out why she suddenly changed her face, Princess Chenxiang had already run away.
"......" Before Yuanxi could shout a word, he saw two maids chasing after him like a gust of wind. Turning her head, Princess Chenxiang was stopped by two maids. Like a prisoner who had attempted to escape, she was carried back by two maids.
What, what's the situation? Won-hee was a little confused.
"Chenxiang! Where are you going to run? The young master has been looking for you all morning, what is the matter with you kid?
Yuan Xi only felt a cool breeze on her back, this voice was too familiar to her - the queen is here!
Yuan Xi hurriedly knelt down, and Princess Chenxiang also knelt down very reluctantly.
The queen was followed by a thin young master, tired and sweaty.
"I heard that you went to the Qinzheng Palace?!You are also messing around!" the queen looked at Princess Chenxiang fiercely.
"Queen Mother...... The daughter knew she was wrong. "As soon as Princess Chenxiang saw the queen, she became honest and uncharacteristically obedient.
It is no wonder that although Princess Chenxiang was not born to the queen, her biological mother, Concubine Deng, died when she was three years old. Over the years, the queen has been carefully raising and teaching her, not her own, but like her own.
"Young master, Princess Chenxiang will be handed over to you, if she dares to skip class and not study well in the future, you will use the ring ruler to teach her a lesson for the palace!"
The young master answered. Everyone knows that punishing the princess with a ring ruler is to punish the princess's companion or maid.
As soon as the queen turned her head, she saw Yuan Xi kneeling beside her for a long time, she had never seen this face, and she was a little curious for a while: "Who are you?"
Before Yuan Xi could speak, Princess Chenxiang had already stood up and threw herself into the queen's arms: "Queen Mother, this is the county lord of Donglin, and my father asked her to enter the palace to play with me." β
I don't think that's what I just said. Won-hee couldn't help but laugh, and he wasn't embarrassed to tear her down.
"The courtier, Wei Yuanxi, knocked to see the queen's mother, Chitose, Chitose, Chitose. β
The queen looked at Yuan Xi for a while, this etiquette was quite decent, and her appearance was also handsome, and her face was much soothed: "Lord Donglin, is that the strange woman who collected 5,000 catties of medicinal materials to supply the imperial army? β
"The queen mother praised it falsely, and the courtiers were ashamed. Yuan Xi bowed his head slightly.
"I heard about the court just now, and the palace also heard about it, and you asked the emperor to give the words 'Chengping in the world' to all the ministers. The queen smiled: "It's a smart girl." Have you read a book?"
"Back to the queen's mother, when the courtiers are at home, they often study with their brothers at home. My father often said that only by reading can we be reasonable, so he has always urged us to not slack off. β
The queen smiled and pinched Princess Chenxiang's cheeks: "You girl, don't you want to learn from the county master? Look at you, you're about to play like a minx. β
Princess Chenxiang pursed her lips: "Queen Mother, if I hadn't broken into the court, you might not have been able to see the county lord at this time!"
The queen understood it, and she also heard what Xiao Rongshen said at the court meeting. Xiao Rongshen, a child, has been cold-blooded since he was a child, no matter how benevolent and righteous he is, he will not appreciate it. Now that he has grown up, he even stretched out his hand to the harem and wanted to send a woman to the emperor's side, which is simply crazy!
The queen shook her head and motioned for Chen Xiang to stop.
"Queen Mother, it's past the time to read anyway, so why don't you let us go play......" Chen Xiang raised three fingers: "I promise, I promise to get up early tomorrow to read." In the future, the county lord will supervise me, and you can rest assured. β
The queen looked at Yuan Xi for a while, and found that this child was really steady, with the kind of dignity that no one had ever seen in the ladies. What is this temperament? The queen thought for a long time, and she suddenly remembered that this feeling was very familiar, and it was common for men to have itβthe city house.
Rong Zhan actually has such a confidante by his side, but he is more useful than that Miss Zhao.
"Chenxiang, you go back to the palace first, and the queen mother has to ask the county lord a few words. The queen glanced at the young master: "Young master, you also go back, and come back tomorrow to give a lecture to Chenxiang." β
Everyone retreated, and the queen said softly, "Get up." β
The queen was quite friendly, and she didn't act as depressed, helpless, or unusual as Rong Zhan described. Yuan Xi gradually relaxed: "Queen Xie." β
"Zhan'er told Bengong all the things you did in Donglin Prefecture, but Bengong was a little curious, how could a young woman like you understand that? Did your father teach you?" asked the queen gently.
Wei Dongshu really didn't have time to teach her this.
Yuan Xi shook his head: "Hui Niangniang, these are the courtiers who learned from books, and my father is too busy on weekdays, so he invites Mr. to teach at home." It's just that sometimes, my father will also discuss with his courtiers and brothers, and after coming and going, maybe there are experiences and gains. β
The queen's eyes lit up, and her expression of appreciation was overflowing: "Oh? I wonder who your father is?"
