Chapter 148 There's something interesting to watch
Lu Mingfeng followed up, "Now that Great Xia is prosperous and strong, it's a time of great prosperity. I wonder what kind of treasury would be considered full in Lord Liu's eyes? If Lord Liu feels the treasury is empty, I can thoroughly investigate whether officials across the country have engaged in corruption or abuse of power. How about starting with the officials in Shengjing?"
Lord Liu's face turned pale, and he muttered quietly, "A concubine of the eldest princess, relying on the eldest princess to get the position of Dali Temple Minister, actually thinks he is an official?"
"Master Liu," Huo Xiao sneered, "If you have any dissatisfaction, feel free to speak out loudly. Criticizing others behind their backs is truly ungentlemanly."
"General Huo." Lord Liu was indignant.
Huo Xiao raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Master Liu, please speak?"
speak?
Lord Liu was speechless for a moment.
Right at this moment.
The emperor, sitting on the throne, snorted coldly, "Lord Liu, do you have anything else to say? If not, I will go to see my sister."
Drop this sentence.
The emperor turned and left without caring about the reaction of Lord Liu who was kneeling in the palace.
Took two steps.
He noticed Huo Xiao and Lu Mingfeng were still standing there, and turned back with a puzzled look, "Aren't you two going?"
Huo Xiao and Lu Mingfeng were startled and quickly followed.
The group of people who came to give advice were left looking at each other in confusion.
When Su Yunyao woke up, there were only pearls and agates around her.
"Princess, you finally woke up."
Su Yunyao rubbed her eyes listlessly, "Where's Xuanqing?"
Xuanqing?
Pearl looked puzzled. "Princess, did you say something wrong? General Huo and Lord Lu just came over, but the Emperor wanted to see them about something, so they left again. I guess they'll be back when they're done. Princess, are you feeling unwell? I'll go get the imperial physician for you right away."
Right at this moment.
The eunuch's voice was heard outside Linglong Pavilion.
"The Emperor has arrived."
The palace maids in the hall all saluted.
The emperor walked in quickly with Huo Xiao and Lu Mingfeng, "Imperial sister, I heard you woke up."
"Royal brother, don't listen. Didn't you see that I'm awake?"
emperor:……
"Imperial sister, are you feeling unwell anywhere else?" the emperor asked with concern.
"No, I just feel sticky and I want to take a bath." After saying this, Su Yunyao touched her neck and felt indeed uncomfortable.
"Imperial sister, your high fever has just subsided. It is not convenient to take a bath now. If you feel uncomfortable, ask someone to help you wipe your body." The emperor said with concern.
"Alright then, Huo Xiao, please stay and bathe this princess."
emperor:……
He held his forehead helplessly.
"Imperial sister, I heard that General Huo has already entered the palace. Since he has entered the palace, will you give my general a title? He can't just live in the princess's palace without a title or status. It won't look good if the news gets out."
Su Yunyao turned her head to look at him, and opened her red lips slightly: "Royal brother?"
The emperor pretended not to understand anything and coughed lightly, "Sister, do you think what I said is right?"
Su Yunyao: ...
right!
Absolutely right!
It was asked in front of her two men, how could she say it was wrong?
really!
My sister is there to be cheated.
"In fact, I have already planned this matter, but I just never had the chance to tell you. Since you mentioned it today, I will ask the Imperial Observatory to choose a good day, and then I will issue an imperial decree to grant the marriage. Huo Xiao and Lu Mingfeng will both be prince consorts. The order of entering the palace will be Huo Xiao first and Lu Mingfeng last."
Having said that, Su Yunyao raised her eyes and looked at the two of them, "Do you have any other opinions?"
The two knelt down in unison. "Princess, what you said is very true. I second your opinion."
emperor:……
The two of them could hardly suppress the smiles on their faces.
What opinion could they have?
They just wanted to enter the mansion earlier!
"Since my sister and the two ministers have no objections, then it would be better to choose a date than to wait for one. I will issue an order immediately, and let the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Astronomical Observatory jointly handle everything and choose an auspicious date for the wedding."
The servants in the palace knelt on the ground and said, "Congratulations to the Princess, congratulations to the Princess, congratulations to the Prince Consort."
The news that Su Yunyao had appointed two princes-in-law at the same time spread throughout the harem in an instant.
The lights in the palaces of the harem lit up one after another.
"The princess has appointed a consort? Two at once?"
"I heard that the Emperor personally issued an order granting the marriage. His doting on the eldest princess is truly jaw-dropping. How could a princess have two consorts at once?"
"I heard that after many people died in the princess's mansion, there have been evil things happening. The emperor took the princess to the temple to burn incense and pray for blessings, but when they arrived, the princess fell ill and could not get up."
"The Princess has been through so many hardships over the past year. She almost lost her life before, and now... she's in trouble again!"
"There's always been a rumor among the people that getting married can bring good luck. Could it be that the Emperor felt that the eldest princess was too unhappy and simply arranged for her to have two consorts?"
"Having two princes-in-law isn't surprising, but General Huo and Lord Lu are the kind of cold and ruthless people who don't allow strangers to enter. Can they get along well if they move into the princess's mansion together?"
"I don't know if we can get along well, but there will be some fun to watch in the Princess's Mansion..."
Just as the emperor was about to get up and leave, Wu Jixiang walked in quickly from outside.
"Your Majesty, Lord Shen fainted while kneeling at the entrance of Xuanzheng Hall."
Upon hearing this, the emperor raised his eyes and glanced at Su Yunyao.
Su Yunyao: ...
"No, my royal brother, he fainted. What are you looking at me for? I'm not a royal doctor. I'm still sick myself. His death has nothing to do with me."
Su Yunyao's anxious attempt to distance herself from the matter left the emperor speechless for a while.
"Send the imperial physician to take a look. Tell her that Lin Miaomiao drugged the princess and should be put to death according to the law. It is a blessing that she has lived until now. If she wakes up and still refuses to repent, let her go. There is no need to report to me again."
Su Yunyao couldn't help but give the emperor a thumbs up in her heart.
The emperor has the most vicious heart!
After all, Chen Qiu Nian was a trusted official that he had personally trained, but now he was abandoned just like that.
Su Yunyao's heart skipped a beat, and she felt that she needed to practice her beauty trap more.
After the emperor left, Lu Mingfeng did not leave with him, but was taken to another hall by Zhenzhu to rest.
Huo Xiao carried her to the bathroom to wipe her body.
"Princess." Huo Xiao unbuttoned Su Yunyao's inner garment and let her sit in his arms. "I will serve you and wipe your body."
Su Yunyao chuckled, "It's just a wipe, why are you blushing?"
Huo Xiao: ...
"Princess, you are not well yet, can't you?"
Su Yunyao lifted his chin with one hand, "Can't what?"
Huo Xiao's eyes trembled, "Princess, we still have to wait until you are well again."
Su Yunyao chuckled. "This princess is thinking, 'I can't rub my body until I'm fully recovered?' I wonder if General Huo is thinking, 'I can't do anything until I'm fully recovered?'"
