Ye Qianqian asked curiously.
"What?"
"Our Great Yuan Kingdom has always maintained good relations with the Great Tu Kingdom."
"The New Year is approaching, and the ruler of the Great Tu Kingdom will be visiting our Great Yuan Kingdom."
"I recently received a letter from the King of the Great Tu Kingdom, saying that his princess is now five years old, which is only one month older than you."
"He was thinking of having Princess Saizhuo come to our Great Yuan Kingdom so that you two little princesses could become friends."
“Great! It just so happens that Qianqian can’t find any friends her own age in this palace. She can become good friends with this little princess.”
[The premise is that this girl isn't a villain!]
[If she ever does anything to hurt me, I'll teach her a lesson!]
Zi Changzai looked somewhat awkward.
{What's going on? I clearly got the Emperor's attention with my football skills, but how come Ye Qianqian has already drawn his attention away after just a few words?!}
{Shouldn't the Emperor be the one deciding to have lunch with me now? Why does he seem to want to dine with the little princess instead!}
{Hmph, she truly is someone who is favored by the Emperor wherever she goes. The more I think about it, the more resentful I become, and the more I want to kill the little princess!}
Ye Qianqian was startled when she heard this thought.
[Holy crap, Consort Zi is actually plotting to kill me!]
[Is she getting impatient? Look at me, I can attract Father's attention anytime, anywhere, causing her to steal the spotlight!]
However, with Zi Changzai present, this is just the beginning!
Princess Saizhuo is arriving soon. Once she gets here, I've heard that in the Great Earth Kingdom, boys and girls alike start practicing martial arts from a young age. I'd like to see if this princess is truly skilled!
Although the king meant for us to be good friends, he actually just wanted to see which of us princesses was more outstanding. It's like an old duck swimming—it looks balanced on the surface, but underneath, it's splashing around wildly!
If that little princess is a mortal, then I won't use my magical powers; I'll fight her using mortal methods!
Ye Ling laughed after hearing this.
About Princess Cydre.
The minister who had previously been sent as an envoy to the Great Tu Kingdom told him this after he returned.
Princess Na Saizhuo, like Ye Qianqian, was the king's beloved daughter.
She is just a little princess.
Naturally, they showered her with excessive pampering.
From childhood to adulthood.
He was willing to give her anything.
What does Cyclo want to learn?
Then the king will give what he wants.
Whether it's horseback riding or archery, these are all a piece of cake for Sai Zhuo.
There is only one thing.
Sai Zhuo never wanted to study since she was a child.
Those were the female workers.
Because he was favored by the king, Saizhuo had a somewhat willful temper.
But he's not a bad person.
Ye Ling then knew.
This kind of princess is the kind who can fight with her own daughter and then become good friends.
Naturally, we welcome this girl's arrival.
Ye Ling said to Ye Qianqian.
"Qianqian, let's go to your mother's for lunch now."
"Yes! That's great, let's go eat with Mom!"
[Hehehe, Consort Zi, you see? Even though Father Emperor is with you now, he still thinks about going to eat with Mother!]
You can't stay even if you want to!
Zi Chang didn't say anything on the surface.
But deep down, I hated it to death.
{Even though he's right here with me, he's still thinking about having dinner with Consort Jin. Consort Jin really does have a way of keeping the Emperor under her thumb!}
I'd better not show any jealousy; what the Emperor dislikes most is the infighting and rivalry among the concubines in the harem!
Then Zi Changzai spoke.
"Since my sister is already waiting for the Emperor, please let the Emperor go there soon."
[Hehehe, what a great act of tolerance and magnanimity!]
I could hear you cursing my mother in your mind!
[I wonder if Father has noticed anything yet. He's such a clever man; I hope he has. No, I must ask him later. I need to be sure that Father hasn't fallen for Consort Zi!]
Then on the way to the Glass Palace.
Ye Qianqian deliberately said this to the Emperor.
"Father, I think Consort Zi is doing quite well!"
Ye Ling knew she was asking that on purpose.
This was also to dispel Ye Qianqian's doubts.
So he said it on purpose.
Why do you think Zi Changzai is so good?
"Because she plays football very well and isn't jealous of her mother at all, I think that's very rare!"
"Really?" Ye Ling said with a smile.
"Is it possible that Consort Zi was faking it?"
[Hmm? Father Emperor noticed?]
[Hehehe, I knew it! My father is incredibly intelligent. Consort Zi's little tricks couldn't fool him at all!]
"Yeah?"
Ye Qianqian pretended not to understand anything.
"I really didn't notice!"
"It seems I'm still not as clever as my father!"
Ye Ling almost burst out laughing.
You're not as smart as me?
You're really something, pretending to be confused when you know the truth!
Ye Ling then said.
"I didn't notice it at first either. It was the Empress Dowager who reminded me, and then I started to pay attention!"
Oh, so it's the Empress Dowager!
[Tsk tsk tsk, as expected of the previous champion of palace intrigue! The Empress Dowager knows exactly what's going on among the women in the harem!]
This Consort Zi is disliked by both her grandmother and her father; a bad ending is surely awaiting her!
Hehe, now I'm relieved!
Ye Qianqian said it on purpose.
"But I think my father seemed to really like her just now."
"That was all for show. In reality, I didn't take her seriously at all."
Are you satisfied now? My little princess, are you at ease now that I've said this?
Ye Qianqian then said.
'Father, aren't you being a bit dishonest?'
Ye Ling laughed.
"Qianqian, your father is about to teach you a lesson!"
Of course, you already knew about this course.
"What your father wants to tell you is that in this world, the premise for you to treat others with sincerity is that the person is grateful. If someone is ungrateful, you cannot use your kindness on them!"
"Otherwise, you will suffer a great loss!"
Ye Qianqian nodded.
"Yes, Father, I understand what you mean!"
Hmph, I understood that a long time ago!
I'm really looking forward to Princess Cydra's arrival!
The third day.
The king of the Great Tu Kingdom, Ao Fan, entered the Great Yuan City in a grand procession.
Ye Ling went out of the city to greet him.
Ye Qianqian followed Ye Ling's side.
His eyes were fixed on what was in front of him.
