The Crown Princess Must Be Pampered

Main character: The outwardly cultured and divinely empowered, cold-hearted female lead vs. The self-taught, passionate, and wife-chasing male lead.

Huan Yue died and transmigrated into a swe...

Chapter 262 A Shocking Secret!

The cultures of the Great Zhao are very similar.

Although there aren't articles like "The Peach Blossom Spring," "The Humble Abode," or "On the Love of Lotus," there are quite a few similar ones.

"After walking several dozen steps, the view suddenly opened up. The land was flat and spacious, with neat houses, fertile fields, beautiful ponds, mulberry trees, and bamboo groves. The paths crisscrossed, and the sounds of chickens and dogs could be heard. People were going about their farming, and the men and women dressed just like outsiders. The elderly and children alike were all enjoying themselves."

This is a spiritual pursuit that extends to the entire paradise.

Everyone found it quite interesting.

If you don't find it interesting, just ignore it.

Huan Yue said to the sage, "This is not about being content with small wealth, but about elevating one's spiritual pursuits. Being born and raised here, loving one's family and one's country. This cultivates people who are both simple and magnanimous."

He nodded in agreement.

It actually means keeping them in one place, not hindering them, but attracting them spiritually.

Huan Yue said, "People are all about novelty. If something exists in the city, they have it too. And if something doesn't exist in the city, they have it too."

Let's stop arguing.

Fang Jieyu said from behind, "This is the ultimate in comfortable living."

Peace of mind is not only physical, but also mental. And when you achieve joy in your work, it's perfect.

Consort Shin thought, "With such a wonderful place, I won't be thinking about anywhere else."

It refers to the Chang family.

If she could, Ms. Shen would be willing. Away from the hustle and bustle, in a secluded paradise—just thinking about it brings tears to her eyes.

It's impossible in the palace. However, Lady Shen felt that if Qing'e were to take charge, perhaps she could cause some trouble.

I'll just glance at Erlang now.

Xie Zhou's face remained expressionless, but his heart was in turmoil. How could he have possessed such skill back on that mountain?

Huan Yue picked up Prince Huayuan.

Half of the people wanted to laugh, and the other half felt sorry for them.

Prince Huayuan's face turned red! He was a little taller than Qing'e!

Huan Yue met his eyes.

Prince Huayuan is dangerous, but looking into her bright eyes almost blinded him!

Why would Huan Yue be afraid of him? He said in a gentle tone, "You are a fine son of the Xie family, who wants to govern by doing nothing and believes that the people will become rich. However, in such a prosperous era, it is more interesting to participate yourself, right?"

Prince Huayuan fled in a sorry state; he didn't want to be forced to do anything.

Prince Yongning looked at his second brother and sighed.

The Crown Prince of Wu looked at his brother and sighed.

Yang Tao was so angry he was about to flip the table!

Fushan Zhenren prepares to begin her performance.

Xie Zhou glanced over at it.

Someone behind asked, "Is Lan Shiyan the son of Master Fushan?"

Someone else shouted, "So, Master Qionghua is Master Fushan's granddaughter?"

Huan Yue watched as Master Fushan fainted again.

Did he faint during the performance?

Even the Venerable Qionghua, who had been holding it in, almost fainted!

Someone immediately retorted: "Master Fushan went to Zichan Mountain at the age of twelve! Twelve years ago, the Empress Dowager personally celebrated her sixtieth birthday!"

This rebuttal was ineffective and instead caused an even greater uproar.

Some people have even speculated on the truth: "When Master Fushan was cultivating Taoism on Zichan Mountain, he had an affair and fathered a son."

A shocking scandal!

Huan Yue watched as Fu Shan Zhenren woke up and then fainted again; she might not be able to hold on much longer.

However, the truth wasn't over: "The person he was having an affair with wasn't from the Lan family, but rather..."

Qionghua Zhenren screamed!

A group of people rushed to speak up for Master Fushan.

"This is outrageous! Master Fushan is a highly accomplished Taoist master; how can he be slandered like this?"

"Even Master Fushan is in this state, how can you bear to see him like this?"

"Don't you consider the Empress Dowager's feelings?"

Huan Yue said, "The Empress Dowager seems to have fallen into a stagnant pool and is desperately trying to climb out."

Princess Guangning wanted to laugh.

Princess Changning hurriedly said, "Let's pull Grandmother out together. Grandmother has been deceived by the traitors, and the traitors deserve even greater punishment!"

Anyway, the Empress Dowager can't be wrong; it's always someone else who's wrong.

A group of gossipy people were particularly interested: "Who is Jianfu?"

Everyone was clever: "Could it be the Pei family?"

Holy crap: "Marquis of Jianchang?"

The older generation still remembers: "The Marquis of Jianchang died at Zichan Mountain."

Therefore, when the Li family was able to escape, they would go to Zichan Mountain. Even if it weren't for this matter, there were still quite a few people going to Zichan Mountain.

There was a moment of silence in the Linde Hall. Could this really be?

Xie Zhou winked at his wife, and it was true.

In her previous life, Master Fushan was supposed to live for a few more years, but things got lively after her death. The Lan family's true sons fought with Lan Shiyan over the family fortune, and that wasn't all; several people from Zichan Mountain also fought with Master Qionghua.

Because the Empress Dowager bestowed too many gifts upon Master Fushan, many people coveted what Master Fushan possessed.

This matter escalated, and in the end, it became a scandal involving the Chan Sect.

Xie Zhou didn't want to wait several years.

Now that Master Fushan has arrived, we must expose her true colors.

However, Xie Zhou was unaware that Lan Shiyan was actually the son of the Marquis of Jianchang.

So, it's said that Fushan Zhenren stole Li Shi's man!

This can't be kept secret any longer; it'll be all over Sheng'an by tomorrow!

Fu Shan Zhenren himself set it up; his fame must be immense, not to mention anything else. The Li family is even more fiery, perfect for gossip!

The deceased Pei Su suddenly gained a younger brother, and the living Chang Ziyu gained a great-uncle?

Di Baose and Guo Bing sat down, feeling a little dizzy.

Many people have guessed that Lan Lirong entered the Eastern Palace and was a cousin of Chang Ziyu.

Huan Yue felt speechless. The Pei family's daughter still entered the Eastern Palace in this way.

The Dong family panicked! They sent Master Fushan to cause trouble, not to be the ones being caused trouble!

Madam Dong was furious again. "Master Fushan is really useless. Why does he keep fainting?"

Lan Shiyan is her son. Didn't she know that when he was born? Now she keeps coming back.

Lan Shiyan is her son, it's not a big deal.

Although she will be disgraced, Fushan Zhenren is a Taoist practitioner, and everyone will support her.

Lan Lirong changed her clothes and came over to Huan Yue.

To others, the situation seemed bizarre. If Huan Yue was from the Pei family, then Lan Lirong was her cousin?

But it doesn't matter if she's a cousin or not.

Princess Changning asked Lan Lirong, "Is Fushan Zhenren your great-grandmother?"

Lan Lirong opened her mouth, unsure how to answer.

Everyone who saw it understood!

Before anyone could spout nonsense, Princess Changning asked again, "Do you know who your great-grandfather was? The Marquis of Jianchang. So you're also a daughter of a marquis's family?"

Lan Lirong was stunned.

The Lan family of Guangping is powerful, but how can they compare to the Marquis's mansion?

No matter how well-off a local tyrant is, everyone knows that the power and prestige of kings and nobles are something to aspire to.

A female official grabbed Lan Lirong and demanded, "Speak! Is Fushan Zhenren your great-grandmother?"

Lan Lirong snapped, "You already know, why are you asking?"

Princess Changning was satisfied. She also understood what Lan Lirong meant—that Lan Lirong had a very powerful background. Princess Changning, however, looked down on her and went to sit down.

Princess Guangning accompanied her. The things that Master Fushan had done were far from over. However, she had her father and second brother with her.

Huan Yue didn't care much. Because she was the Crown Princess, targeting her meant targeting a part of the royal family.

She also had a powerful backer; the emperor was the biggest support.

Although some emperors have faced turbulent times, the current emperor is flourishing and enjoys the shade of a great tree.

The emperor had little sympathy for Master Fushan, and only in the end did he show great mercy: "Please leave. The imperial physician will examine you carefully."
