Chapter 136 Are You Willing to Be My Princess?
Emperor Xuanyuan looked at Concubine Yao.
"Noble Concubine Yao, because the Crown Prince is ill, you are temporarily serving as Empress and managing the six palaces. You should be cautious in your words and actions and set an example for everyone in the harem. You did fail to oversee what happened today, but considering your dedication in managing the harem in the past, I will not hold you accountable for the time being. From now on, you should be a good Noble Concubine and not interfere in the affairs of the palace. If you are too idle, reflect on your mistakes in Yikun Palace."
Xuanyuan Su looked at the two sisters of the Xiao family. So this was what he meant.
Prince Rong's face turned pale, and Princess Rong beside him held his hand, signaling him not to be impulsive.
Su Yan, who was sitting in the corner, had been sitting far away because of his official relationship, and he saw the whole scene clearly. This scene was so similar. He had done the same thing as Yao Ruishu at his elder brother's funeral, but no one believed him. He thought that Xiao Fuguang must have some kind of magic!
A New Year's Eve banquet should have been a happy occasion, but because Concubine Yao insisted on granting the marriage, it ended up as a farce.
Emperor Xuanyuan spoke with a bad look on his face.
"I am tired. I will go back and rest first. My dear ministers, please feel free to do as you please."
Everyone hurriedly stood up and saluted.
"Farewell, Your Majesty."
The queen cleaned up the mess with a smile.
"Everyone is tired, so let's end today's banquet here. It's dark and the roads are slippery, so please be careful on the road."
Upon hearing this, all the ministers responded and took their leave.
The queen looked at Xiao Fuguang with gratitude in her eyes and raised her hand to take off the two hairpins on her head.
"Princess Regent, Miss Three, I'm deeply moved by your mutual support. Today is New Year's Eve, and these two hairpins were given to me by the late Emperor when I first became Crown Princess. I present them to you two today as New Year's gifts. I hope your sisterly love will last forever, and that you will be blessed with happiness."
Xiao Fuguang and Xiao Fusu looked at each other and stepped forward to take the hairpin from the queen's hand.
"Thank you, Her Majesty, for the gift. My sister and I will definitely remember your instructions today. From now on, we two sisters will respect and love each other and never leave each other."
Yikun Palace.
Concubine Yao had smashed the teacups and vases in the room.
“Bitch…this bitch…”
This was the first time Cuizhu and Lianxin saw Concubine Yao so angry.
Hurriedly and carefully comforted her.
“Your Majesty…”
"My lady, please don't hurt yourself."
"My Lady, please don't be angry. We will slowly find an opportunity to fight back. It's not worth ruining your health because of someone like that."
Seeing that there was nothing left to smash in the room, Concubine Yao sat down angrily.
"What a Xiao Fuguang! I really underestimated her."
"She and the Queen have probably already discussed this, waiting to deliberately find fault with me on New Year's Eve, and then help the Queen regain the power to manage the six palaces."
Cuizhu helped Concubine Yao to calm down.
"My lady, calm down first."
"Lian Xin, quickly send someone in to clean these things up, or the Empress will get angry if she sees them."
"Prepare some refreshments for Her Majesty. She has been busy preparing for the banquet for so long, she must be hungry."
Then he spoke to Concubine Yao.
"Your Majesty, I've noticed that the Regent Princess hasn't entered the palace recently. I wonder if the Empress is taking advantage of this opportunity..."
Fengyi Palace.
Nanny Fang bowed to the queen sitting on the phoenix throne with a smile on her face.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Your Majesty."
The queen smiled and spoke.
"Get up quickly!"
"This Imperial Concubine Yao has been so proud for so long, it's time for things to change."
Nanny Fang spoke as she stepped forward to pour tea for the queen.
"Your Majesty, the Regent Princess is a resourceful person. At the banquet today, she calmly turned the situation around. Not only did she help the Third Miss out, but she also allowed you to successfully regain the power to manage the harem. She is truly remarkable."
The queen took a sip of tea, her eyes gleaming with admiration.
"Yes, today is all thanks to the Regent Princess."
Then his face was filled with sorrow.
"Alas, the Crown Prince is not in good health. If he can get better, I will have some hope even if I have to fight Concubine Yao to death."
After hearing this, Nanny Fang spoke to comfort her.
"Your Majesty, our Crown Prince is blessed by heaven and will surely recover."
After hearing this, the queen still looked sad and was silent for a moment.
"Let's have everyone come to Fengyi Palace to pay their respects tomorrow."
In the carriage of the Prince Regent's Palace.
Xiao Fushu leaned on Xiao Fuguang's shoulder.
"Sister, I was scared to death just now."
"Fortunately, the Fifth Prince stepped forward."
Xiao Fuguang held her hand and spoke slowly.
"This guy, sometimes he won't get anxious unless you stimulate him."
After hearing this, Xiao Fushu looked up at Xiao Fuguang.
"Sister, what if he still doesn't come to propose marriage?"
"I have a feeling that the fact that Concubine Yao wanted to force a marriage in public today is related to Su Yan."
Xiao Fuguang's face darkened a little.
"Don't make any assumptions. He was definitely the one who suggested this to Prince Rong. If your marriage hasn't been finalized by the fifteenth, I'll arrange for someone to send you to the East Territory, and you can go find Qi'an and the others."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Fushu spoke hurriedly.
"Sister, I won't leave. You promised me that I could stay. If the prince doesn't come to propose marriage after the fifteenth day, then I will go and talk to him."
Looking at her stubborn eyes, Xiao Fuguang spoke helplessly.
"You really have such a bad temper..."
Xiao Fushu looked at her with a determined face.
"Sister, you can arrange my marriage and me as you wish, but I will never leave the Imperial City."
Xiao Fuguang sighed helplessly.
"Forget it, if you don't want to leave, then don't leave."
When the carriage stopped at the Regent's Palace.
Liu Yue's voice came from outside.
"Princess, Third Miss, we're here."
When the two got off the carriage, they saw the fifth prince standing at the door of the Regent's Palace.
Xuanyuan Jing had just gotten off the carriage in front.
The fifth prince stepped forward and bowed.
"Meet the Imperial Uncle, meet the Imperial Aunt, and Third Miss."
Xiao Fuguang and Xiao Fusu looked at each other and thought, you can't talk about people behind their backs, because if you talk about Cao Cao, Cao Cao will appear.
Xuanyuan Jing glanced at the fifth prince.
"Why aren't you going home so late?"
The fifth prince spoke with a smile on his face.
"Uncle Royal, Aunt Royal, today is New Year's Eve, and we have to stay up all night. I thought of coming to stay up with Uncle Royal."
After hearing this, Xiao Fuguang looked at him. If he was going to stay up all night to celebrate the New Year, he should go to accompany Emperor Xuanyuan, right?
Xuanyuan Jing glanced at Xiao Fushu who was following Xiao Fuguang. It seemed that this kid had ulterior motives. Well, if he could settle the marriage with Xiao Fushu, his princess would not have to be occupied by others every day.
"Come into the mansion!"
The fifth prince spoke hurriedly with a smile on his face.
"good."
Princess An Ning came forward with fireworks in her hand.
"Sister-in-law, brother, you are finally back. We are all ready and waiting for you to come back to set off fireworks together."
The fifth prince bowed to Princess An Ning.
"Aunt An Ning..."
An Ning glanced at him.
Hand him the fireworks in your hand.
"It's the Fifth Prince. Since you're here, let's set off fireworks together."
Then he took Xiao Fushu's hand.
"Fushu, I've prepared your favorite fireworks for you. Come on, I'll take you to see them."
As several people walked into the mansion.
There was a festive atmosphere at the Regent's Palace.
The servants were setting up fireworks.
An Ning and Xiao Fusu were choosing what to put first, both with smiles on their faces.
Xuanyuan Jing looked at Xiao Fuguang.
"Aren't you going to choose?"
Xiao Fuguang smiled and shook his head slightly.
"I'll just take a look."
Xuanyuan Jing put his arm around her waist.
"Then change to a better position to watch the fireworks."
He flew to the roof with Xiao Fuguang and helped her sit down.
As the New Year’s bells ring.
The fireworks in the yard were lit and colorful fireworks bloomed in the night sky, decorating the sky above the Regent's Palace like a dream.
Princess An Ning and Xiao Fushu were spinning and laughing under the fireworks, enjoying this rare happy moment.
Xuanyuan Jing and Xiao Fuguang sat side by side on the roof.
Watching the fireworks blooming in the sky again and again, Xuanyuan Jing raised his hand and hugged Xiao Fuguang in his arms.
Fireworks were also set off in the imperial city. At this time, the imperial city was illuminated by colorful fireworks, and each blooming firework seemed to be telling of new hopes and dreams.
People came out of their homes, looked up at the gorgeous night sky, their faces filled with happy smiles.
The children were pointing and talking excitedly, some of them were setting off fireworks with their friends, and laughter filled every corner of the imperial city.
Xiao Fushu also felt that he had not been so happy for a long time, and picked up another handful of fireworks.
"Sister An Ning, let's put this..."
When he turned around, he bumped into the Fifth Prince.
There was a flash of surprise in his eyes.
Bow quickly.
"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince."
I looked around, but found that Princess An Ning was no longer there.
"peaceful…………"
The fifth prince took the fireworks from her hand.
"Miss San, why don't I accompany you to release it?"
Xiao Fushu looked at him and finally nodded.
Soon the two of them lit the fireworks, but Xiao Fushu was not as comfortable as he was with Princess An Ning.
When the fireworks in his hand burned out, the Fifth Prince looked at Xiao Fushu and spoke.
"Are you tired?"
"Why don't we go sit on the roof?"
Xiao Fushu looked at the roof and his mouth twitched. How could he get up there at this height?
Xuanyuan Su put his arm around her waist.
"I'm sorry, Third Miss."
Taking her to the roof of the palace, she could see the fireworks blooming in the distance.
It was the first time Xiao Fushu had such close contact with a man, and she couldn't help blushing.
The Fifth Prince looked down at her blushing face.
"Miss Third, are you willing to be my Fifth Prince's consort?"
