Chapter 229 Feng Xier
However, before Emperor Fengwu could look for long.
Gu Yang walked quickly forward.
He decisively reached out and snatched the crying Xi'er away, looked down at her tearful face, and coaxed her gently:
"Be good, Xi'er. Don't cry."
The palace attendant saw this and shouted:
"How dare you offend His Majesty."
Gu Yang glanced at Emperor Feng Wu's clothing, knowing that this was not the Blood Nether Palace and that he could not bring trouble to the patriarch, and at the same time, he secretly blamed himself for failing in his duty.
He closed his lips tightly, put his arms around Xier's small body, and knelt down on the spot without saying a word.
Emperor Fengwu's thoughts were now occupied by the phoenix tail birthmark, and he had no time to care about whether there was a collision or not.
She lowered her eyes and looked at Xi'er below, her gaze full of inquiry, and instructed the palace servant behind her:
"Go and ask Su Yuan to come to the pavilion to see me."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
…………
The sun sets and the light gradually fades.
All the guests left.
Father Su tapped his sore arms and legs, turned around to look at Nan Chu and Meng Yunlan behind him, and smiled:
"You've been busy all day, I'm sure you're all tired, go back to your own yard and rest."
Several men nodded and were about to go back as instructed, but Gu Yang suddenly ran over from the inner courtyard and reported in a low voice:
"The head of the family asks the old master and several young men to go to Qiufeng Terrace to inform him of something."
Father Su was stunned, thinking that his daughter had prepared another surprise for him, and said with a smile:
"Let's go. Since Yuanyuan is looking for us, there must be something. It won't waste time if we go over and take a look."
"Yeah, okay."
After agreeing, the few of them walked towards Qiufengtai together.
Gu Yang glanced at Su's father's happy back with complicated eyes, then quietly approached Song Yuezhong and whispered a few words in his ear.
No one knew what Song Yuezhong heard, but his originally calm eyes were now filled with dark emotions. He unconsciously quickened his pace and gradually passed the crowd.
Seeing this, Su's father behind him shook his head and smiled.
Yue Chong was anxious about his surprise.
It's so rare, so rare.
but……
After a cup of tea.
When they arrived at Qiufeng Terrace, Su Yuan's concise words immediately broke his good mood:
"Xi'er will be taken to the palace."
Father Su frowned and asked doubtfully:
"What, why is this?"
Nan Chu, Meng Yunlan and Ji Qiubai, who were sitting on both sides, also had confused expressions. They really couldn't understand when the Imperial Palace allowed outsiders to enter at will?
Even a little kid over one year old can’t do that!
Su Yuan sighed, turned his head to look at Song Yuezhong, who was called by him to sit next to him and was in a low mood.
Then he said:
"Yue Chong, Yue Chong is the prince of His Majesty who was stranded outside. The Third Princess was not favored by His Majesty. She discovered Xi'er's identity in the backyard and talked with me for a long afternoon. She decided to bring Xi'er into the palace to train him personally."
These words caused several men to be shocked.
Ji Qiubai was born in a royal palace and was quite politically savvy. He was the first to react and said in surprise:
"If I train myself, then that would be Xi'er, Xi'er..."
Ji Qiubai was afraid that the crowd didn't understand, so he raised a finger and pointed to the top of his head, and said vaguely:
“This one from the future.”
Father Su's body went limp and he almost fell off the stool, luckily Ji Qiubai supported him and he did not fall.
He took a breath and said:
"Oh my God, our Ruan and Su families are so blessed, but...will my second granddaughter never see her again?"
The more Father Su thought about it, the more sad he became, and he actually started crying:
"Yuanyuan, why don't you let His Majesty find someone else? Although Daddy has never been to the palace in his life, he has heard that the rules are very strict. Even if you become an empress, you can't come out casually."
"Will our Xi'er be trapped in there for the rest of her life? Wuuwuwu——, I may never see her again until I die."
Nan Chu frowned and agreed:
"Yes, if Luo Luo is taken away by someone, even if she becomes the emperor in the future, I, as a father, will not be happy."
Su Yuan shook his head, held Song Yuezhong's slender fingers on the armrest, squeezed them soothingly, and said:
"Don't worry. If Your Majesty forcefully takes Xi'er away, I won't do that either. I agree to this with conditions. First, Your Majesty will announce Yuezhong's identity to the public and enfeoff him as the son of the deceased Lord Lan."
"Secondly, Xi'er will be sent to the palace every afternoon. I will pick her up after my shift and bring her back to spend the night. Just think of her as studying at the school. It's not like we won't see her anymore."
Song Yuezhong suddenly turned his head and looked at Su Yuan in surprise, and asked in a slightly hoarse voice:
"She, after knowing my background, still agreed to your conditions?"
Su Yuan nodded.
She held onto the back of the chair and moved it towards herself. She lightly hugged Song Yuezhong's trembling back and patted him, saying softly:
"She knows everything. It's not your fault."
"Besides, if she wants Xi'er as her heir, she has to accept you. From now on, just stand in front of others openly. As for that man, it doesn't matter if she doesn't recognize him."
The two of them had a conversation, and the others couldn't understand or hear clearly, but they learned the good news from Su Yuan.
Everyone was very happy.
According to Su Yuan, Xier was equivalent to going to school, and got a supreme teacher for free.
Even Su's father cried with joy and became happy:
"Okay, okay, that's good."
"As long as Xi'er can come home every day and our family can stay together, I will agree even if I change my last name."
Father Su now didn't know that his words hit the nail on the head. The next morning, during the court session, Emperor Fengwu, the cheap grandmother, drafted an edict overnight to change her surname.
…………
The next day.
The sky gradually brightened and the sun rose.
Today's morning court was the same as the previous ones, yet also different, all because of an imperial edict from Emperor Fengwu that shocked all the civil and military officials in the court.
Probably means:
I have a granddaughter, her name is Feng Xier.
His father was the posthumous son of the late Lan Guijun. In his early years, he wandered among the people and married Su Xueshi. Now he has recognized her back.
Zhuo Feng, the prince of Yuanqi, was named Feng Yuezhong.
As for why it was a granddaughter, just like the late Lan Guijun had no posthumous children, it all depended on Emperor Fengwu's words.
No one dared to refute.
Since then, the situation in the court has changed drastically. The third princess, who was almost decided a month ago, was washed up on the beach by the waves.
It’s not just because Emperor Fengwu made an exception to personally teach his granddaughter and gave her all kinds of instruction.
It depends on the situation in the DPRK:
Civil officials: Bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, from Su Yuan’s school.
Wang Qin: The empress's adopted sister, the King of Nanyou, who has her own private army and fiefdom.
Wu Chen: The commander of the Lu family army, Wu'an Marquis Lu Shengling (Su Yuan came to ask for marriage one month later, after the mourning period for the old marquis was over. The court officials were shocked to find that their male marquis was more than five months pregnant.)
Imperial Merchant: Meng Yunqiao, the Meng family gradually developed into the richest merchant in Fengqi.
With such a complete range of forces, anyone with eyes would know that the emperor's grandson Feng Xier is the designated empress of Fengqi.
