Chapter 156 Is Father out of his mind?
The prince, feeling sad, frowned at the note in his hand, "Prince Xiaoyao will soon arrive in Beijing. I wonder if he is really as romantic as he appears to be? Or is he a hidden master of gambling?"
"Prince!" His confidant Jing Mo flashed in and whispered in his ear.
"You said that after the court was dismissed, the emperor asked all civil and military officials to come to court again, just to judge between Miss Mu and Lord Yao? Miss Mu even won against Lord Yao?" Because it was too unbelievable, when he said the last sentence, his voice couldn't help but rise octaves.
"What? Brother Royal, how did Miss Mu beat Lord Yao?" Ye Zhaoxue, who was sitting inside feeling extremely bored, suddenly rushed to the side of the prince and asked loudly.
The prince stared sternly at the hand that grabbed his sleeve and shouted, "Let go!"
Ye Zhaoxue, who feared nothing but his brother, the Crown Prince, loosened his fingers one by one and asked in a stammering voice, "Royal brother, what did the guard just say to you?"
As he spoke, he brushed off the wrinkles on the prince's sleeves that were caused by his claws, trying to smooth them out.
The prince wiped his head helplessly, and the sleeves of the four-clawed python were becoming more and more wrinkled as his imperial sister pulled them.
"Jing Mo, repeat what you know to the princess again."
So Jing Mo turned around and spoke to Ye Zhaoxue again...
"What did you say? That idiot Mu Qingqing competed with Lord Yao in checking accounts and actually won?! No, I have to go over and put a damper on her arrogance..." After hearing that Mu Qingqing was in the limelight in Yonghui Palace, Ye Zhaoxue lost her composure and hurried out.
"Stop! Have you forgotten what I told you some time ago? Hmm..." The prince's sinister voice came from behind Ye Zhaoxue.
Ye Zhaoxue, who had already walked to the doorstep, pouted and turned around unhappily, "Royal brother, I just can't stand that arrogant Mu Qingqing! Everyone knows that she is an unlearned idiot, how could she be smarter than Lord Yao who was born as the top scholar?"
The prince had been thinking about this question. After careful consideration, he came to a conclusion that he least wanted to see: that is, Mu Qingqing had been hiding her strength and biding her time, deliberately pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger!
If that's the case -- that's trouble!
"Royal sister, don't be impulsive! Mu Qingqing is now our Sixth Sister-in-law. Father has just conferred upon her the title of Princess Pingyang and also granted her a fiefdom. If you go over and make trouble at this time, how will father look at you?" The prince glanced at Ye Zhaoxue with a sinister look.
Mu Qingqing now has the title of princess of her own fiefdom.
There is a huge difference between a princess with a fiefdom and one without!
A princess without a fiefdom only has the title of princess and enjoys a salary, but has no real power.
A princess with a fiefdom not only has the title of princess and enjoys a salary, but also has real power! She can go to court with all the officials!
Ye Zhaoxue's originally beautiful face revealed an unwilling and ferocious look, and she shouted: "Is my father out of his mind? He actually appointed Mu Qingqing as a princess!"
"Pa" the prince slapped Ye Zhaoxue on the face with his backhand, and the cold words flowed out from his thin lips: "How can you say such words!"
Ye Zhaoxue covered his burning left cheek and looked at the prince in disbelief, "Wow, Prince, you actually hit me?!"
"What's wrong? What happened to you two brothers and sisters?" The queen walked out quickly from the back hall.
Seeing the blood on Ye Zhaoxue's left face through her fingers, the queen stepped forward with a heartache and hugged Ye Zhaoxue, comforting her softly: "Xue'er, be good, don't cry, mother is here for you."
As she said this, she glared at the prince with her beautiful phoenix eyes, "Sheng'er, you are really something. Your sister is still young. If there is anything, just talk to her properly. Is it necessary to use such a heavy hand? As a brother, don't you feel pain?"
The prince's mouth twitched violently, revealing a bitter smile: "Mother, my sister is not a child anymore. If you continue to spoil her like this, with her ignorant personality, she will be sold out in this palace where people are eaten without leaving any bones, and she will help others count the money."
How could the queen, who had been in the imperial palace for many years, not know that this was her daughter's shortcoming? Knowing it was one thing, but really having the heart to discipline her was another.
As a mother, I can’t bear to see my sweet little girl unhappy!
She thought that as long as I was there to protect her, no one would dare to bully her! Besides, she had the Crown Prince, the future Emperor, to protect her, so she should live a life without worries!
"Then you can't hit your sister either!" The Queen hugged Ye Zhaoxue and looked at the Prince coldly.
Seeing the empress's unreasonable behavior, the prince's dark eyes were filled with anger: "Mother, do you know what my sister just said? A princess actually criticized my father behind his back! If my father heard it..."
You can think about the consequences yourself! The prince cursed in his heart in anger.
The queen looked at the prince, who was always calm, wise, and gentle, but now he burst into strong dissatisfaction. She stared at Ye Zhaoxue and said, "Xue'er, tell me, how did you criticize your father just now?"
"Mother, I am your son, your son..." Ye Zhaoxue, whose IQ had finally returned to his brain, stammered, not daring to look the empress in the eye, let alone answer her directly.
Was I possessed by a ghost just now? How dare I say this about my father in the palace! If someone with ulterior motives heard it, how could I be saved? !
Don’t be fooled by the fact that my father usually pampers me. If I really touch his bottom line, the consequences - just think about it, they’ll be terrible!
No one knows a daughter better than her mother. Looking at Ye Zhaoxue's evasive eyes, the queen knew it all: it seemed that she could not spoil her anymore. If she was so stupid and was used by someone with ulterior motives, the consequences would be disastrous.
"Xue'er, from today on, you will copy the 'Female Rules' in your own Feixue Palace and reflect on yourself. I will let you out when you have copied them a hundred times." The Queen said sternly to the crying Ye Zhaoxue.
Ye Zhaoxue, who had just condensed a few drops of cat urine, stared at the queen who always loved him and obeyed him with wide eyes: "Mother, are you serious? That won't work. I have to attend Princess Yu's chrysanthemum viewing banquet in a few days!"
"It seems that mother's words are of no use anymore?" The queen stared at Ye Zhaoxue sinisterly.
Ye Zhaoxue said weakly: "Then, can I still leave the palace to attend Princess Yu's chrysanthemum viewing banquet?"
The elegant and graceful queen looked at her precious daughter in her palm, who looked like she was not working well. She couldn't help complaining in her heart: Hey! Who should I blame? I can only blame myself for spoiling her too much and letting her not know the treacherous world. A princess of a country doesn't have a single opinion of her own. She is just arrogant and unreasonable!
"It all depends on your performance these days." The queen replied weakly.
"Oh yeah!" Ye Zhaoxue took the queen's arm and said happily: "Thank you, mother! I know that you treat me the best!"
After saying this, he glanced smugly in the direction of the prince.
The prince looked at the two most important women in his life, helplessly holding his forehead, "Royal sister, don't forget what I told you, try not to provoke Mu Qingqing in the future, we can only be friendly with her head on!"
In private, if you can keep your hands clean and don’t let anyone find any evidence against you, you can do whatever you want.
I’m afraid that if someone instigates you, you, a pig-brained person, will jump out to deal with her!
Ye Zhaoxue, who was too thick-skinned, didn't feel the good intentions of the prince at all! She only knew that the prince had changed and didn't dote on her as much...
