Chapter 19 The Yuefeng Kingdom Envoy Arrives
When the Great Chu Emperor heard that his daughter actually viewed him in this way, he quickly spoke up: "You don't have to cry here. The matter has not been concluded yet. Framing the noble concubine is a serious crime."
Lu Xingwan: [Ah, my father is so reasonable? ]
Even though it was Concubine Chen Gui, she couldn't help but take another look at the Emperor of Great Chu.
"Your Majesty." When Lady Fang saw the Great Chu Emperor like this, her arrogance was mostly extinguished, and she knelt down hurriedly, "Your Majesty, if it weren't for my maid who knew a little bit about medicine and found the Cyathula in the medicine residue, the Cyathula is a medicine that can promote blood circulation and dissolve blood stasis. If it continues to be used for a long time, wouldn't the baby in my belly be in danger?"
"Oh?" Concubine Chen Guifei said, "Why don't you call your maid over so we can confront her face to face."
Noble Lady Fang was about to say something, but Concubine Chen stopped her: "Where are the medicine residues? Did you bring them?"
Lady Fang looked at His Majesty and said, "My maid is waiting outside Yu's study, and she is holding the medicine residue."
So the Emperor of Great Chu asked Meng Quande to call the person in.
"Since you know medical skills, please tell us how to identify this Sichuan Achyranthes bidentata so that we can learn from it and protect ourselves in the future."
The maid had already planned this with Concubine Fang, but she never expected Concubine Chen to ask such a question.
He was at a loss for words at the moment.
All of a sudden, everyone knew it.
Lu Xingwan was shocked.
[Is this the palace fight in the storybook? At least gather all the evidence first, this is... too low-level.]
When the Emperor of Great Chu and Concubine Chen Gui heard this, they both held back their laughter.
"Noble Lady Fang, since you, a palace maid, cannot speak, you come and explain it." The Emperor of Great Chu was angry that Noble Lady Fang had slandered Concubine Chen, but since Wanwan was still there, he did not get angry.
The noble lady just fell to the ground and cried, unable to speak.
"Meng Quande, bring the noble lady back and send her to..."
Concubine Chen Guifei spoke up to stop him, "Your Majesty, Concubine Fang is now pregnant with a dragon child, so why not just confine her to the palace?"
When the Emperor of Great Chu saw that Concubine Chen didn't care, he agreed.
Fang Guiren felt even more resentful towards Chen Guifei.
After Lady Fang left, the Emperor of Great Chu hurriedly took Lu Xingwan into his arms and played with her.
"Bring Wanwan to me more often in the future so that I can get closer to her."
"Just when she was about to leave, she suddenly started crying, so we brought her here. I'm afraid she wants to see her father."
For a while, there was joy in Yu's study.
Three days later, the delegation from Yuefeng Kingdom arrived.
On this day, Marquis Dingguo had a long conversation with the Emperor of Great Chu in Yu's study. After Marquis Dingguo returned home, he soon took dozens of personal guards and rode out of the city.
On the morning of that day, the Emperor of Great Chu also sent Taifu Lin and Yushi Dafu Rong to welcome the Yuefeng Kingdom delegation at the city gate.
The Great Chu Kingdom originally received a notice to send a prince and a princess as a marriage partner.
Unexpectedly, the person who came was the crown prince of Yuefeng Kingdom.
The palace banquet to welcome the Yuefeng Kingdom's delegation was naturally arranged in the evening. In order to show the emperor's benevolence, the Emperor of Da Chu issued an edict that all women from official families of officials above the third rank, regardless of whether they were legitimate or illegitimate, could attend the palace banquet. So after noon, the ladies of each family began to enter the palace, and the palace became lively after a long time.
Concubine Chen called Pei Chuyan to her early in the morning and told him, "Prince Pei, there are many people at the palace banquet today, and the environment is chaotic. There are also people from Yuefeng Country here, so please make sure to take good care of Wanwan."
Pei Chuyan cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, your Majesty. I will never leave Princess Yong'an's side."
Lu Xingwan glanced at Pei Chuyan.
[After all, he is the young master of the Anguo family, so he has responsibilities. 】
[It feels so good to have someone protecting me. I feel so safe! ]
Because of the blessing of spiritual power, Lu Xingwan has already sat steadily just three months later.
The Great Chu Emperor and Concubine Chen Guifei couldn't help but sigh: "As expected of a fairy reincarnation, she is truly different from others."
At the palace banquet, although Concubine Chen tried to object again and again, she was unable to prevail over the Emperor of Great Chu. Now, Lu Xingwan was being served by palace maids and sitting on the same chair with the Emperor of Great Chu, which caused a lot of discussion among the wives and daughters of the officials.
"I've heard that His Majesty dotes on Princess Yong'an, but I never thought it would go this far!"
"That's not true. After all, Princess Yong'an is the lucky star of our Great Chu State!"
Lu Xingwan didn't care about these idle talks at all and just muttered to herself.
[According to the plot in the story, there is always going to be some chaos in such a big scene.]
[However, this palace banquet was brought forward. It seems that my mother had passed away for almost a year. Now I am only three months old, and the delegation from Yuefeng Country has arrived. ]
[However, the Crown Prince was already very sick at that time, and was mocked by the Crown Prince of Yuefeng Kingdom, who said that the Crown Prince was not presentable.]
[Now the prince is handsome and handsome, look at the ugly prince of Yuefeng Kingdom! ]
[How dare a small foreign country act rashly? 】
Lu Xingwan's last words made the Emperor of Great Chu feel happy, and he drank a few more glasses of wine.
There was a small incident at the dinner, which was small, but it was also a big deal.
The envoy of Yuefeng State said that they wanted to marry a woman from an official family as their crown princess and asked the Emperor of Great Chu State to grant them the marriage.
Unexpectedly, the person he fell in love with was Han Xiyue.
[Father, help me, my sister is the prince's. No, no, this Yuefeng prince has a lecherous look on his face, and it's obvious that he has bad intentions.]
The Emperor of Great Chu certainly understood that Han Xiyue was the daughter of a cavalry general, and it never made sense for the daughter of an important official to marry into another country.
General Han and Lady Han were also anxious, but they were unable to express their grievances in public as they were at the palace banquet.
Concubine Chen Gui spoke at the right time: "Unfortunately, Miss Han has been betrothed to our crown prince as the crown princess, and the imperial decree will be issued in the next few days."
Hengshu, the Empress Dowager and the Emperor both agreed. He had also met General Han's wife a long time ago and discussed the matter. Seeing that the two children both recognized each other, it was a perfect marriage.
Why not take this opportunity to finalize it?
For a while, there was a lot of discussion in the venue.
Naturally, there were some girls from official families who admired the prince and became jealous of Han Xiyue; and naturally, there were also some ladies who had previously fallen in love with Miss Han and felt sorry for her.
The family of the General of the Cavalry is indeed a good match, and Miss Han looks like a lovely girl.
Seeing Concubine Chen speak, the Emperor of Great Chu issued an edict on the spot. The Crown Prince and Han Xiyue stepped forward together to thank him and accept the edict.
Lu Xingwan sat next to the Emperor of Great Chu, clapping her hands and also looking very happy.
[Mother is mighty! Father is mighty! Yay, Miss Han is marrying the Crown Prince! ]
[The prince of Yuefeng Kingdom is clearly a toad wanting to eat swan meat. Look at how he is worthy of Miss Han! ]
[The prince is still more handsome! ]
Hearing Lu Xingwan's careful voice, Concubine Chen Gui couldn't help but look towards the prince. It was really like an aunt looking at her nephew, the more she looked, the more she liked him!
