Chapter 48 The Man This Princess Likes
Although it wasn't the first time Xu Mubai was pinched on the face by the princess, he still couldn't help but stiffen. The numbness instantly spread throughout his body. His cheeks flushed. "Since you're okay, I'll take you back."
Su Yunyao glanced at Lu Mingfeng behind her and said softly, "You should go back first. I have something to say to Master Lu."
Xu Mubai nodded when he heard this, "I'll go back first."
Before turning around, his eyes inadvertently swept across Lu Mingfeng's cold face.
Out of the Dali Temple.
Su Yunyao took a deep breath.
"The air outside is still better. The smell in the Dali Temple just now was so disgusting that it almost made me vomit."
After saying that, she turned her head to Lu Mingfeng and asked curiously, "Don't you feel disgusted at all?"
Lu Mingfeng's expression was calm, and he didn't answer her directly. "If the princess is feeling unwell, why not send for the imperial physician to take a look?"
As they were talking, the two of them walked to the front of the carriage, and Lu Mingfeng quickly lifted the curtain of the carriage.
Su Yunyao stared at the carriage with a hint of resentment. Her stomach was already churning, and the thought of sitting in the carriage, rocking and shaking...
She couldn't help but cover her chest and retched.
"No, no, the thought of the carriage shaking makes me want to vomit. This carriage is too uncomfortable to sit in."
Lu Mingfeng withdrew his hand and asked, "Then I will accompany the princess back?"
Walk back?
Su Yunyao imagined herself and Lu Mingfeng walking hand in hand in the moonlight...
Quite romantic!
Su Yunyao turned around and followed Zhenzhu, who was keeping a distance from her, and said, "Zhenzhu, you guys go back first. I'll walk back with Lord Lu."
A question mark slowly appeared above Pearl's head.
The princess wants to walk back?
On weekdays, the princess felt tired just by walking around the palace.
Is it such a long way?
Is the princess really going back?
Although I was confused, the princess had her reasons for saying so.
Pearl said a few words to the coachman and got on the carriage.
Accompanied by the sound of crisp horse hooves.
Pearl and the carriage disappeared into the night.
Su Yunyao stretched lazily.
"The night is so beautiful tonight!"
"The eldest princess."
Lu Mingfeng followed her and said, "Early tomorrow morning, I will go to the palace to see the emperor and report today's events in detail."
Originally, there was no need to alarm His Majesty for such a small matter.
But this matter is related to the eldest princess...
Su Yunyao nodded seriously and added, "As for the revision of the law, I must also inform my royal brother. I cannot let hidden illnesses become a shield for certain people."
"Princess, please rest assured. I will report to the Emperor what you have mentioned today."
"very good."
Su Yunyao suddenly stopped as if she thought of something.
"Are all the laws of Daxia revised and compiled by the Dali Temple? You, as the Dali Temple Minister, have quite a lot of power?"
Isn't this equivalent to the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court?
When Lu Mingfeng heard this, his eyebrows trembled slightly.
"Princess, I am the Junior Minister of the Dali Temple, not the Minister of the Dali Temple. The position of the Minister of the Dali Temple is higher than mine. The Minister of the Dali Temple is of the Second Rank, while I am only of the Fourth Rank."
Su Yunyao didn't feel embarrassed at all because she said something wrong. She murmured seriously and earnestly.
"Huo Xiao also told me last time that he is a General of Cavalry, not a General, and you are a Junior Minister of the Dali Temple, not a Minister of the Dali Temple. Although Xu Mubai is the shopkeeper, I am the shopkeeper of Jinjinglou."
Su Yunyao paused for a moment, her eyes widening instantly.
"So, all the men this princess likes are second-in-command?"
Second in command?
Although Lu Mingfeng did not hear the meaning of these three words, he could guess roughly what they meant based on what the eldest princess said.
He didn't notice at all that he was also the one favored by the princess, and said seriously, "Princess, Lord Shen is not."
"Lord Shen?"
"Lord Shen is the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet. The four palaces and two chambers all obey his orders. Lord Shen is a first-rank official."
"Stop! Stop! Stop!" Su Yunyao made a stop gesture, looking confused. "Are you talking about Shen Qiu Nian?"
Lu Mingfeng's eyes were indifferent and he nodded.
Su Yunyao was speechless.
"No, I'm talking about the man this princess likes. What does this have to do with him?"
Lu Mingfeng: ???
"What you said is not very hurtful, but extremely insulting!"
Lu Mingfeng: ???
"Come on, you really are like a kid sitting in a classroom, not paying attention, and never remembering the key points the teacher is saying."
Lu Mingfeng was puzzled, "What's the point?"
"The point is, the man I like is not Chen Qiu Nian." Su Yunyao said angrily.
Lu Mingfeng looked confused.
Isn’t Shen Qiu Nian the man the eldest princess likes?
The fact that the eldest princess chased after Shen Qiu Nian all day long and forced him to marry her was known to all the ministers in the court.
It all seems to have happened not long ago.
It changed so quickly?
Thinking of the kiss that the eldest princess gave Huo Xiao on the corner of his lips in front of all the court officials before he went to the battle, a hint of joy flashed across her eyes.
It seems that after the eldest princess fell in love with General Huo, she really let go of her grudge against Lord Shen.
Lu Mingfeng followed him and said, "After General Huo returns from Xijing this time, he will no longer be just a General of the Cavalry, right?"
"Why?" Su Yun turned sideways and smiled, her face was dazzlingly beautiful.
Lu Mingfeng was distracted for a moment.
"At noon today, the border crossing was expedited for 800 miles. General Huo has captured three cities in Xijing in a row. Xijing is a must-win. Once Xijing is captured, General Huo's title of Grand General will be well-deserved."
The smile on Su Yunyao's lips deepened a little, "He is truly worthy of being the man this princess has set her eyes on. The enemy is defeated before Qingfeng even makes a move, and his strategic planning surpasses thousands of miles away."
Upon hearing this, Lu Mingfeng frowned slightly.
"Does the Princess also openly praise other men in front of General Huo?"
"That's not the case." Su Yunyao seemed to be thinking about something, and then said seriously, "When Huo Xiao and I are together, we rarely chat."
Lu Mingfeng: ???
"Why?"
Just when he was surprised, Su Yunyao said casually, "Because we are going to kiss and have no time to chat."
Want...want a kiss?
Lu Mingfeng suddenly felt like he was struck by lightning.
Especially when the eldest princess said these words, her tone was flat, as if she was saying that the weather was very good today.
Lu Mingfeng couldn't control his emotions for a moment. He was usually calm, but when he heard Su Yunyao's bold words, he choked on his saliva and started coughing violently.
It took him a lot of effort to stop coughing.
"I believe that after General Huo returns, the princess and General Huo will soon get married."
"Good things? What good things?"
Su Yunyao was surprised.
"Is it because I now not only use idioms, but also compose poems to praise people's good deeds? If my royal brother knew, he would definitely stop calling me an unlearned fool."
"You're joking, Princess. Given the Emperor's love for her, how could he possibly say that?"
