Everyone turned around and knelt in greeting, "Greetings, Her Majesty the Queen Mother!" Everyone understood. This person, who had excused himself for wanting some quiet time, had suddenly arrived to help his nephew.
When the Empress Dowager came, even the Great Zhao Emperor had to bow and salute, "Your son pays homage to the Empress Dowager!"
As expected, after the Queen Mother understood the truth, she spoke up. Her target was Princess Antai. "Antai, you, as a mother, haven't disciplined her properly, and that's why Rong'er has run wild and trespassed into the men's rest area. Why didn't you stop crying and take her to the women's quarters so the imperial physician can see her?"
She had a kind face and a gentle voice. But anyone with a discerning eye could see how much she disliked the mother and daughter. Translated, it meant: You still have the nerve to cry. It's obvious your daughter deliberately went to the man's residence to seduce him. Instead of carrying her away quickly, she continues to embarrass herself. It's completely out of character.
Even though this person wasn't her biological mother, the arrogant Princess Antai was very wary of her. Upon hearing these stinging words, her tears immediately stopped. She exchanged a glance with Emperor Dazhao and reluctantly allowed her daughter to be carried down.
After this interruption, Emperor Dazhao's anger dissipated a lot and he regained his rationality.
No! We can't really kill him. Otherwise, not only will the Queen Mother's mysterious secret guards not let it go, but even King Xiaoyao, far away in the west, will come straight to the capital to demand justice after hearing about it.
By then, he will be in a difficult situation due to internal and external troubles.
However, he felt ashamed when his own niece was beaten like this.
Just as the situation was at a stalemate, he heard someone whispering among the concubines behind him. The voice was slightly more neutral than that of an average woman, and he immediately recognized who it was.
"Hey, is this prince out of his mind? The princess clearly fell down on her own, but he insisted that he saw a female ghost. Where are there female ghosts? Madam Shufei, you have been in the palace for some years. Have you ever seen a ghost in the palace? This is a wealthy place, with the pressure of dragon energy. How could there be a wronged spirit appearing here? The prince must have drunk too much and his memory is confused."
Emperor Da Zhao glanced back slightly out of the corner of his eye.
Don't be fooled by this silly newcomer's straightforwardness, but his words...
He made the final decision, "Come here, help the prince down to sober up. Western wine is strong, Yutang must have seen it wrong. Also, who are the craftsmen on duty today? Why don't they quickly repair the steps? They let the princess fall for no reason. They are really tired of living!"
"Yes!" Several eunuchs came forward quickly, some of them supported Jiang Yutang; some went to find the craftsmen.
When passing by the Great Zhao Emperor, Jiang Yutang was called, "Nephew, wait a minute!"
Jiang Yutang really had a splitting headache and wanted to sleep. He was impatient inside, but he didn't show it on his face. "Uncle Huang, is there anything else?"
Emperor Da Zhao thought about it and finally couldn't swallow this breath, he had to disgust people, "Since Rong'er is destined to be with you, and you are not married yet, why don't you..."
"Uncle Emperor, my nephew is still young..." Jiang Yutang really annoyed Helian Rong. She had always been a nuisance to him since she was little. He would rather marry a sow than her.
Emperor Da Zhao was dissatisfied. When had a noble lady of their royal family been so despised by a person of an outsider like you? His expression turned sour, and his tone was unquestionable, "Oh, Yutang, you child must have misunderstood. What I meant was that when Rong'er wakes up, it will be unsafe to return home at night. Since you live nearby, you can send her off for me, so that the palace doesn't have to arrange for more people."
Before being carried away, Helian Rong had already shown signs of waking up, indicating that her injuries were not fatal.
The emperor had said so, Jiang Yutang no longer dared to confront him, and smiled charmingly, "Okay, uncle emperor, it's a small matter!"
They say that evil can last for a thousand years, and this Princess Helian was truly resilient. The imperial physician examined her and declared her wound superficial. It was merely a frightening sight, bleeding. Furthermore, the wound was on the back of her head, making it difficult to style her hair for the foreseeable future. This caused the beauty-conscious Helian Rong to burst into tears upon waking, hugging her mother and acting like a spoiled child.
But when she heard that Jiang Yutang would send her back home soon, she forgot everything.
The luxurious carriage back to the Princess's Mansion was padded with thick silk cushions. Helian Rong instructed, "Cousin, I'm thirsty!"
Jiang Yutang was anxious to go back to sleep, so he reluctantly poured him a cup of tea and handed it to him.
"Cousin, I'm hungry!"
Jiang Yutang looked around, found some snacks in the cubicle, handed them over, and then closed his eyes to rest.
Some people are just mean, like Helian Rong. She's a real tough-guy, having actually developed feelings for someone after being beaten. Before tonight, she'd simply been resentful of his indifference. But after tonight, she found the man who could be brutal, punching and kicking her one moment, then gentle and helpless to her needs the next, extremely attractive.
A heart is sunk.
The more I look at Jiang Yutang, the more I like him.
The "sweet and affectionate" scene in the car made Yan Miaoling, who was outside, feel sick. She communicated with the system, "Are you sure... Jiang Yutang will make another move?"
The mission she had just accepted was to follow and stop Jiang Yutang from beating Helian Rong again along the way. But she sounded very harmonious, and even worried that the two of them really didn't know each other until they fought, and that "fighting at the head of the bed and making up at the foot of the bed" would put the male protagonist's innocence at risk.
System, "It's dispatched by the main system, of course it can't be wrong."
"Ah!" As soon as the words fell, a woman's cry of pain came from the carriage. Then a familiar curse came out, "Damn it, you're so shameless! I've spoiled your bad habits. You let me, a big bully, peel nuts for you, and you're so delusional! You're trash!"
As soon as the curtain was lifted, the person jumped out of the car.
Then, their eyes met...
Yan Miaoling was still wearing her slightly old-fashioned auntie's outfit on the side of the road: a dark blue robe underneath and a shiny brown bodice on the outside. Under the moonlight, without any streetlights, it looked like a shroud, truly terrifying.
Jiang Yutang shuddered in his heart.
Yan Miaoling was also feeling uneasy because she was being stared at. She always felt that Jiang Yutang could see her.
Just when I was doubting him, he withdrew his gaze and walked away with a swagger, singing "Eighteen Touches" in a very melodious manner as he walked.
Helian Rong in the car stamped her feet in anger. The secret guards stepped forward, "Princess, are you going to take action?" Although they were in the dark, they were not blind. The master was beaten, and this kid was simply too outrageous.
Who would have thought that Helian Rong would lift the car curtain, cover her face and stare at the arrogant figure in front of her, her eyes becoming more and more fixed. One could even describe it as infatuation and madness.
The curtains were lowered, and she smiled mischievously. "No need, the driver is off. Just follow him at a leisurely pace!" It took a lot of persuading for her mother to finally allow her to ride in the same carriage with him. Even if one of them was inside and the other outside, they had to complete the journey.
Yan Miaoling, who was working as a tool nearby, saw her expression and was completely confused. What should she do? Was the mission completed or not? Should she continue to follow? She was so sleepy and wanted to go back to bed.
Five of the nine clones were copying scriptures, and four were transcribing calligraphy. Her original body's spiritual power was exhausted and she was very tired.
