Chapter 709 Heart-breaking
Fu Zhaoning also had to praise——
The beauty is radiant and brilliant.
Yun Shu is very beautiful, but what is more attractive than her face is her skin.
That’s right, Yun Shu is very white.
So white that it seems to glow.
A white complexion can hide a hundred uglinesses, and she is very beautiful anyway.
Even Fu Zhaoning couldn't help but open his eyes wide when he saw such a beauty with skin as white as jade.
Only then did she understand why Hong Zhuofenxing said that Miss Yun was more beautiful than many beauties in the capital.
Not to mention her facial features, her skin, which is as white as snow, makes her better than most people.
After Yun Shu bowed to her, she saw that she didn't respond, so she repeated the sentence.
"Yun Shu meets Sister Princess."
Fu Zhaoning heard what she said, but his eyes were still a little scrutinizing.
First of all, the title of "Princess Sister" made her feel a little amused.
"Your name is Yunshu?"
"Yes, my surname is Yun, and my given name is Shu." Yun Shu's voice was also very gentle.
She was wearing a light blue dress and a white cape with rabbit fur trim. She had a faint fragrance on her body. When she entered the room just now, there was a breeze outside and the fragrance just happened to blow over.
This fragrance is very special, subtle and elegant, different from the strong fragrances that the noble ladies in the capital like to use.
"sit."
Fu Zhaoning raised his chin.
"Thank you, sister Princess."
She walked to a chair nearby and sat down with a very straight posture, but for some reason, just sitting there made people feel that the chair was too hard, as if she was being wronged.
It seems that she should be cushioned with two very soft pillows stuffed with cotton.
Fu Zhaoning thought about it and realized that this was the most lovable thing about Yun Shu. It was also extraordinary.
"Sister Princess——"
Yun Shu just opened her mouth after sitting down when Fu Zhaoning interrupted her.
"Wait, how old are you?"
Yun Shu was stunned for a moment, but still answered, "It will be nineteen after the Chinese New Year."
"Oh, I'm eighteen." Fu Zhaoning smiled.
Yun Shu was stunned again, but quickly reacted, "Then, should I call you sister?"
"The question is, what gives you the right?" Fu Zhaoning asked back.
"What?"
Yun Shu couldn't keep up with her pace at all.
"I'm asking you, why do you call me your sister? It just so happens that my two maids haven't had the chance to tell you your identity yet, so please introduce yourself." Fu Zhaoning raised his chin again.
Even Hong Zhuo and Fen Xing opened their eyes wide.
The princess speaks very directly.
I heard that even the emperor felt very fond of Yun Shu when he saw her.
Yun Shu had always been gentle and soft, but now she looked a little confused, her eyes slightly red, and she felt a little aggrieved.
"My father is King Qiong—"
"Are you the daughter of King Qiong?" Fu Zhaoning was surprised.
She originally thought that since the person was sent by King Qiong, she should be a maid or a singer. She never expected that she would be King Qiong's daughter.
But this is not right. After all, she is the daughter of Prince Qiong. How could she be sent to Prince Jun's mansion casually?
Prince Qiong lives in the royal palace, so doesn't Yun Shu have to live in the palace as well?
"That's not right. Isn't King Qiong's last name Xiao?"
Fu Zhaoning looked at the red and pink star again.
The royal family of Zhao State was of the Xiao surname.
Shouldn't Prince Qiong be the Emperor's uncle, nephew, or brother?
Since Yun Shu is his daughter, her surname should be Xiao. How could her surname be Yun?
Fen Xing lowered her voice and leaned close to her ear, "Ms. Yun takes her mother's surname."
Therefore, King Qiong’s surname was indeed Xiao.
"Suiyun?"
This is quite rare. After all, she is of royal blood. How could Prince Qiong let his daughter take her mother's surname?
Yun Shu's eyes became even redder, and she looked pitiful.
She bit her lower lip and was about to speak, but Fu Zhaoning spoke first, "Since you are the daughter of Prince Qiong, it is not appropriate for you to live in Prince Jun's Mansion. I will have someone send you back to the palace."
Then she raised her voice and shouted, "Eleven."
Yun Shu couldn't sit still anymore. She stood up, a little shaky, "Sister Princess——"
"Oh."
Fu Zhaoning's face darkened and his expression became somewhat sarcastic.
"Okay, it's still early and I don't want to sleep, so I'll give you some time to talk. Come on, explain to me again, how do you get the term sister from? Is Prince Qiong the uncle or the brother of my prince?"
Yun Shu's body trembled slightly.
Hong Zhuo lowered her voice again and said, "Princess, Prince Qiong is the prince's cousin. He was once raised by the concubine. Before he was ten years old, he and the emperor were taught by the same tutor."
If Yun Shu had come later, she would have been able to explain all these things to the princess.
Some people once speculated that the Prince of Qiong was most likely the son of the Concubine Dowager and the former prince, and therefore, he and the Emperor had different fathers.
But if this is true, it means that the emperor was cuckolded by his brother.
This palace secret involves the former prince and the emperor, so no one dared to mention it anymore.
Prince Qiong was also conferred the title of king very early and was swept away to his fiefdom, and was not allowed to enter the capital. Most people in the capital had almost forgotten about this person. Who would have known that he would suddenly come back and bring such a daughter with him?
"So, according to your calculations, she should be my prince's cousin?"
Fu Zhaoning looked at Yun Shu, "If that's the case, then if we really want to talk about it, shouldn't you call me sister-in-law? What's the logic behind calling me sister or sister?"
Yun Shu bit her lower lip.
"My background has not been made public." She said this with a bit of humiliation.
For this kind of thing, once everyone knows the inside story, they just need to keep it in their hearts and generally won't speak it out to people's faces.
Who is like Fu Zhaoning, who wants to make the relationship clear?
"Not made public? Why?" Fu Zhaoning asked again with some curiosity.
Hongzhuo and Fenxing wanted to touch their foreheads.
So, why did Yun Shu come in such a hurry? Couldn't she let them tell the princess about these relationships first?
If the princess had known this earlier, she wouldn't have asked this question.
"I, I--" Yun Shu's face was pale to begin with, and now that she felt wronged, it became even paler. This time it was really too pale, like a female ghost.
She is too white, and her red eyes are particularly obvious.
From this perspective, it looks like a white rabbit with red eyes.
For a moment, the previous stunning feeling was weakened by a large amount, and it was quite funny to watch.
Not only Fu Zhaoning had such a feeling, Hong Zhuo and Fen Xing also thought so.
"My mother is not Princess Qiong. She lives outside. I have followed my mother since I was a child..." Yun Shu's voice sounded a little broken.
As she said this, tears rolled down her eyes. She looked really pitiful.
But Fu Zhaoning was not so soft-hearted, and she said it bluntly again.
"Your mother is the concubine of King Qiong? You are an illegitimate daughter? That is indeed not convenient to make public."
puff.
Yun Shu fell down.
