Chapter 106: Named Xihe



Thinking of the special nature of his daughter's thoughts, Jiang Fengyuan felt a headache.

Inside the palace, the emperor happily played with Jiang Yuanxi.

Cao Cheng came in and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Lord Jiang has left."

The emperor laughed out loud, "You see, I still have a way."

These military generals neglect their sons and dote on their daughters.

It's like having some serious illness.

When the late emperor was still alive, he fell in love with the daughter of a military general.

Unexpectedly, the general nearly died in front of the gate of the Golden Palace, which frightened the late emperor so much that he dared not take the general's daughter as his concubine again.

But military generals also value trust and promises the most.

The last time they drank, he took advantage of Jiang Fengyuan being drunk and asked him to put his fingerprints on the table, just for today.

Can you blame him for something he promised himself?

The emperor was extremely happy.

He hugged Jiang Yuanxi and said, "Yuanxi, call me daddy."

Jiang Yuanxi thought about it and said cutely, "Emperor Daddy."

"Oh, daddy's good daughter." The emperor smiled with his eyes narrowed into slits.

Cao Cheng couldn't help but say in his heart: You are still talking about those generals, but look at you now, you are laughing as if you don't need any money.

The emperor suddenly remembered something.

"Yuan Xi, what do you think of Yan Song in the prison of the Ministry of Justice?" The emperor said halfway and felt that he might be possessed by a demon.

How could you bear to let a little girl do such a dangerous thing?

Besides, this little girl can't even speak clearly.

The emperor took one look at the little girl chewing her feet and immediately stopped thinking.

[I am the one who should arrest Yan Song. What did the Emperor want to say just now? 】

The emperor was already shocked by what she said, that it was he who had captured Yan Song.

Turn around and think about it.

No wonder Jiang Yuansheng was willing to let Yuan Xi go.

It turns out that I have long known that this little guy has extraordinary abilities.

The emperor continued, "I don't know what kind of magic Yan Song has learned. Although we caught him, the officials of the Ministry of Justice still couldn't get close to him and couldn't interrogate him."

His skills are strange, and the emperor wants to find out whether Yan Song has any accomplices.

After all, shrinking the distance to an inch only exists in myths and legends.

Jiang Yuanxi asked in confusion: "Wouldn't it be better if the Emperor kept him locked up forever?"

The emperor rubbed the little girl's smooth hair.

"Dad is the emperor of a country. He must consider the people of the world."

If Yan Song had accomplices who used this law to bring disaster to the people, he would also be held responsible.

The emperor sighed and said, "If anyone can help me solve this problem, I will reward him with a thousand taels of gold."

Jiang Yuanxi's eyes lit up.

A great opportunity to make money!

The first two golds make me happy just thinking about them.

Jiang Yuanxi immediately raised her hand.

"I can!" She stood up straight and patted her chest.

[No one can take this job except me. All the gold is mine.]

The emperor couldn't help but laugh in his heart when he heard this. Who did the little guy inherit this money-loving spirit from?

The news that Jiang Yuanxi was conferred the title of princess became known to everyone, and all the ministers were dissatisfied.

Although the emperor had expected this, he was still shocked by the mountain of memorials in front of him.

At the morning court the next day, the ministers united in opposition.

Prince Heqin was the Emperor's half-brother, and he took the lead in opposing it.

"Your Majesty, Jiang Yuanxi is only a little over a year old. She is not your descendant, so how can she be a princess?"

His daughter has not even been canonized as a princess, so why should the daughter of a foreign official be conferred the title of princess?

Censor Zheng Guang also disagreed.

"The laws of our dynasty stipulate that if a non-royal child is to be crowned a princess, he or she must make contributions to Yufeng."

"When the late emperor was alive, Princess Yuqing married into the Rou Clan in order to control the wind, and only then did she get the title of princess. Jiang Yuanxi is illiterate and has not made any outstanding contributions to our dynasty, so how can she be qualified for the position?"

......

Jiang Fengyuan was unhappy when he heard people in the court belittling his daughter.

I haven't said anything yet and you're already yelling here.

His stubborn temper suddenly came up.

"My daughter is innocent and lovely, why can't she be a princess? You can't even afford the emperor's food, but you're talking nonsense here. I'm giving you face, right?" He couldn't afford to offend the prince, so it didn't matter if other people scolded him.

Zheng Guang blew his beard and glared, "You are vulgar!"

The two have a good relationship in private, but their political positions are clear.

"How can I be vulgar..."

"Alright." Seeing that a quarrel was about to break out, the emperor stepped in to stop it.

No one can tell what he wants to do.

"This matter has been settled. As for you, you can have your opinions."

The ministers were delighted.

They believed that the emperor would never allow children who were not members of the royal family to surpass the royal family.

But before long, the emperor said, "You can quarrel as much as you want, but I won't listen."

The enthronement of a royal princess is a private matter of the royal family.

The emperor waved his sleeves and said, "Cao Cheng, let's go and watch the princess's enthronement ceremony."

Jiang Yuanxi was dug out of bed early in the morning. While Chen was changing her clothes, the little girl didn't even show any intention of waking up.

Chen was also distressed, but there was nothing she could do about it as the royal family had always had complicated etiquette when conferring titles on princesses.

"Yuan Xi?" Chen woke her daughter up.

Jiang Yuanxi opened his hazy eyes.

"Mom, go to sleep." She was so sleepy that she couldn't even open her eyes.

Chen pinched the little guy's nose and said, "Do you remember what I told you yesterday?"

Jiang Yuanxi stared in a daze: "Ah, what?" She forced herself to open her eyes.

Chen sighed.

Well, as a mother, she will go with him too, and just be there to remind him when the time comes.

But today she always felt uneasy.

Chen and Jiang Yuanxi got on the sedan chair and entered the palace.

The people from the Ministry of Rites have already made arrangements.

After all, it was the Royal Jade Butterfly, so quite a few people came, including the concubines in the harem.
