Seeing that he looked unhappy, the Fifth Princess continued, "Don't worry, my husband. I will find a chance to tell my father after the New Year."
Although I don’t know whether my father will agree, I’d better give it a try first.
Her husband placed all his hopes on her, and she couldn't let him down.
"Thank you for your hard work," Qi Xuan's expression softened a little. "We are husband and wife as one. If you help me, you are helping our common home."
After saying that, he looked at the Fifth Princess's hand, took out a porcelain bottle and handed it to her.
"Use this to apply on the wound on your hand so that it won't leave a scar."
No one in the mansion dared to say anything, and the Fifth Princess naturally wouldn't say anything because of her personality. But if the Emperor saw the scars on her hands, the Qi Mansion would be unable to explain.
"Thank you for your concern, husband. I'm fine."
Not long after Qi Xuan left, Qi's mother sent someone to invite the fifth princess.
"Princess, Madam asks you to pass."
The fifth princess changed her clothes and went to Qi's mother's yard.
As soon as I stepped into the yard, I saw Aunt Lan sitting next to Qi's mother. They were talking about something, and Qi's mother was laughing so hard that she couldn't stop.
The fifth princess held her handkerchief tightly.
In fact, when she first married Qi Xuan, both Qi's mother and Qi Xuan treated her very well.
But after three years of marriage, she still hadn't gotten pregnant, and Qi's mother and Qi Xuan gradually treated her less well than before.
"Madam, the princess is here."
Aunt Lan stood up and was about to bow to the Fifth Princess, but Mother Qi held her back and said, "You're pregnant with Xuan'er's child now, so forget about the formalities!"
"Mother, what do you want from me?"
Qi's mother glanced at her, her displeasure evident on her face.
"I asked you to come here because I want you to vacate the yard for Lan'er as soon as possible. And how many times have I told you that you should be polite when you see your mother-in-law? Do I need to teach you these?"
"I understand," the Fifth Princess bowed obediently, "Meet mother, I will move out of the courtyard as soon as possible."
"It's a good thing that you're considering Xuan'er's offspring," Qi's mother nodded with satisfaction. "Anyway, this child will be yours to raise in the future. Just treat it as your own child!"
Aunt Lan looked at the Fifth Princess being scolded and felt a little sympathy for her.
The noble princess was so embarrassed that she didn't know how to refute.
"Aunt, the princess should live in the courtyard. It doesn't matter where I am."
Qi's mother and Qi Xuan want to die, but she won't accompany them.
No matter what, the princess is still a princess. If the emperor knew how the Qi family treated the princess, it would sooner or later lead to a big mistake.
Seeing Mother Qi hesitate, Aunt Lan said softly, "Aunt, my current courtyard is closer to you, so it will be more convenient for me to come and talk to you. The princess doesn't have to move."
Mother Qi was still a little worried, "But, the baby in your belly."
"It's my cousin who's making a fuss," Aunt Lan raised her hand and touched her belly, "It's really nothing."
Aunt Lan was good at making people happy, and with just a few words she persuaded Mother Qi to change her mind.
After leaving Qi's mother's courtyard, Aunt Lan and the Fifth Princess walked side by side for a while. Then she stopped and said, "Princess, what happened today was not my idea."
The fifth princess was a little surprised, she just nodded and didn't say anything.
"Actually, if the princess is not doing well, she can tell the emperor."
She was framed by the vicious Qi's mother, otherwise she would not have become Qi Xuan's concubine and stayed in Qi's mansion.
He endured the nausea every day and tried to please Qi's mother Qi Xuan, just to let them taste the feeling of being cheated by their relatives.
"Auntie Lan, please take care of yourself first!"
The Fifth Princess did not appreciate it and felt that Aunt Lan was making fun of her.
Looking at the Fifth Princess walking away, the maid beside Aunt Lan frowned and said, "Aunt, why bother reminding her? She won't appreciate it."
…
The weather gradually gets warmer, and in the blink of an eye, it is spring when all things come back to life.
The fifth princess specially chose a good day to go to the palace to meet the emperor.
A lot of things piled up before the New Year, and the emperor was so busy dealing with them that he forgot about the fifth princess.
Now I remember it after hearing someone report it.
He threw away the memorials from the ministers asking him to choose a concubine and let the fifth princess in.
[Has the love-brained Fifth Princess been coaxed into submission by the domestic violence man again? ]
[She must be going to the palace now to ask the tyrant to give the domestic violence man a position!]
The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly. The fifth brother had indeed mentioned it before, but it had been rejected by him.
"Your son pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor." The fifth princess stepped forward respectfully and saluted.
She recalled what Qi Xuan had taught her.
"Get up!" The emperor's sharp gaze fell on her, "What do you want from me? Are you having a hard time in the Qi Mansion?"
The Fifth Princess quickly shook her head, "Thank you for your concern, Father. I am doing very well."
"Why are you looking so fierce, Tyrant? Fifth Princess has finally memorized the words taught by the violent men in her family. What will happen if you scare her into forgetting all the words she remembered?"
"I have come to see you, Father, to ask for something."
Is it so direct?
"Speak." The emperor picked up the tea and was about to drink it when Yu Yiluo's inner voice rang out again.
[The tyrant dares to drink tea, don't choke later.]
The emperor silently put down his tea and listened to the Fifth Princess say, "Father, the Prince Consort has treated me very well over the years, but he has never held an official position. I am bound to be ridiculed when I am away from home, so please give the Prince Consort an official position!"
If you want an official position, just take the exam yourself. Don't you know that tyrants hate backdoors the most?
[Oh, I forgot. The domestic violence man has failed the exams for years and is now unemployed. Not only did he fail the exams himself, but he also blamed everything on the Fifth Princess.]
The fifth princess was annoyed by the constant voices in her heart.
How come the little princess knows everything?
Last year, Qi's mother did hire someone to calculate her fortune, and the person said that she was unlucky with Qi Xuan, which was why Qi Xuan could never pass the exam.
"Old Five, do you know what you are talking about?"
The emperor's face darkened, thinking that she had been beaten silly.
"Even if I give him an official position, will he be able to handle it? He has failed the exams all these years. Hasn't he been ridiculed enough?"
The fifth princess shrank her neck and dared not speak again.
How could she not know this? She's more afraid of disappointing the domestic violence man than being angry at you.
After all, she felt that she had been childless for many years, and the fact that the domestic violence man hadn't divorced her was already a great blessing.
[Oh, by the way, the domestic violence man also gave her medicine to prevent scars.]
How could the Fifth Princess bear this? She must be so moved she's going crazy. Even though he hit me, he still cares about me. Otherwise, he wouldn't have given me medicine to prevent scars.
emperor:"……"
Luoer started again.
"Are you stupid? I was just worried that your injuries would be seen by the tyrant and cause trouble, so why are you so moved?"
The fifth princess pursed her lips and stood still.
"Anything else?" The emperor looked at her with disappointment.
I really want her to listen to Luo'er's voice.
"It's alright, I'll take my leave."
[It's over. I haven't done anything yet. I'm sure I'll get beaten again when I get back.]
[I don't know if the Fifth Princess has a masochistic streak, the more she's beaten, the more she loves him.]
[The weather isn't that hot right now, so how could this have burned the Fifth Princess's brain?]
