He may be talented, but he doesn't need someone who's a lackey for others.
The old emperor may have appeared foolish and incompetent, but he was actually quite shrewd.
Besides, Hua Rong, who can save his life now, is the first person in his heart.
However, the old emperor's attempt to curry favor with Hua Rong was perceived in a different light by the general public.
Everyone felt that the Emperor had probably really fallen in love with Hua Rong!
Otherwise, how could they possibly agree to such an unreasonable request?!
This is truly... something I've never seen before!
And just like that, this cold-faced guy couldn't stay cold anymore.
Because his brother, who had been with him for over twenty years, was about to leave him because of this play.
He looked at Feng Ling'er, about to beg for mercy.
Feng Ling'er shouted first, "Hurry up and drag this servant away!"
Feng Ling'er was afraid that the guard would try to take advantage of her, so she quickly spoke first.
The next sentence was: "Alas, it's fortunate that you have an older brother. But being able to serve Miss Hua Rong is also your good fortune."
The man with the cold expression froze for a moment, then fell silent.
Yes, he still has his parents and relatives in the hands of the Feng family.
Hua Rong watched this scene with a cold expression, feeling no sympathy.
Do you sympathize with someone who wants to harm you?
Her name isn't Tang Sanzang!
Hua Rong thought to herself that she already knew what would happen to this cold-faced person.
The risk of cutting off one's genitals is very high; at least three out of ten people will die.
He will probably be one of them.
The banquet then continued.
Perhaps seeing how much the old emperor "favored" her, some officials would occasionally glance at her.
Their intentions are crystal clear.
However, Hua Rong didn't want to pay attention to them and just waited for a good show to begin.
Her gaze swept over Feng Ling'er, but there was no longer any ripple in her eyes.
Since you've done it, you must bear the consequences.
The waiting process is never pleasant.
Hua Rong then moved over to sit next to the Fifth Princess and started chatting with her about her sisters.
The conversation took a long time to finally turn to the second princess.
"Have you noticed that the Second Princess has changed a bit lately?"
Hua Rong originally thought there was no way to gain anything, but to her surprise, the Fifth Princess actually discovered something was wrong.
"Now that you mention it, I just remembered. My second sister has been acting like she's eaten firecrackers lately. She's always acting like she's the biggest chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur), and she even killed two palace maids a couple of days ago."
Hua Rong ignored the 21st-century vocabulary that the Fifth Princess occasionally used, and seemed to be deep in thought.
She suddenly said meaningfully, "I've also heard from the eunuchs and maids that the Second Princess has become increasingly difficult to serve lately. Anyone who didn't know better would think she had a completely different soul."
These words sent chills down the Fifth Princess's spine, and she dared not look at Hua Rong.
"Could it be that this cheap second sister was also possessed?"
She actually remembered the direction Hua Rong had pointed out.
The Fifth Princess did not believe that the Second Princess, who was also a time traveler, was necessarily her family.
joke!
Not everyone is a friend in modern society.
There are countless people who cheat their fellow villagers and relatives.
Not to mention they were two time travelers who didn't even know each other.
She's been very careful lately to keep this identity secret.
Thinking about this, she felt that the person inside her second sister's body was really an idiot!
Do you think you can act all high and mighty just because you're a time traveler, without needing to pretend anymore?
Could it be that she's been influenced by those novels where characters transmigrate and become all-powerful, leading to her chuunibyou (adolescent delusions of grandeur)?
The Fifth Princess grew angrier the more she thought about it, feeling that if this person continued like this, he would be courting death!
The Fifth Princess whispered to Hua Rong, "You should be careful around your Second Sister these days."
The Fifth Princess looked at Hua Rong with pity.
In the original storyline, the second princess repeatedly targeted Hua Rong because she was jealous of Hua Rong's face.
In the end, she actually succeeded—she put Hua Rong in the prince's bed.
If there are any men in the world who don't like the female lead, Hua Rong, then it must be the men of the Yuwen family.
The men of the Yuwen family seemed to be blind, unable to see Hua Rong's beauty.
In short, if Hua Rong hadn't been saved by one of the male leads, she would have really been killed by the Crown Prince.
Of course, the second princess, who ultimately courted death, was also killed by Hua Rong, who later displayed great power.
Hua Rong felt a chill run down her spine from the Fifth Princess's gaze.
However, she didn't care much about that. What she cared about was whether the second princess was actually dressed up!
Thinking about it, she remembered the old emperor's eldest daughter—Princess Yuwen Shu, who was currently accompanying the Empress Dowager at the Sishui Mountain Villa!
She hadn't met this princess yet.
As for the other seven, eight, nine, and ten princesses, she had already met them all.
They're all poor little girls who act like princesses at such a young age.
She smiles without showing her teeth, and walks without moving her clothes... she's practically a flower being ravaged!
Just as Hua Rong was lost in thought, a heart-wrenching cry of "There's an assassin!" brought the atmosphere of the banquet to a climax!
Hua Rong instantly felt that the banquet he was hosting was absolutely the best of all Mid-Autumn Festival banquets!
If the timing weren't so bad, she would have liked to run up to the Empress and point her nose at her.
Hua Rong kept a close eye on the assassins and pulled the Fifth Princess behind the old emperor.
Although the area around the old emperor was the most dangerous, the area behind him was the safest.
The Fifth Princess was quite frightened at first, after all, this was the first time she had ever seen such a scene of swords and shadows.
But the thought that the female lead was still by her side made her no longer afraid.
"The female lead's Mary Sue story... no, I guess my lucky star will shine on me... right?"
