Chapter 284 Whose princess is so coquettish
Chapter 284 Whose princess is so coquettish
The women of Northern Yan were rough and sturdy. Although the emperor had many concubines in his harem, none of them could compare to Pan Rongrong's skills in bed.
Besides, a wife is not as good as a concubine, and a concubine is not as good as a secret lover.
The emperor knew how sweet it was, so how could he bear to kill such a beauty?
However, the queen's maternal family was powerful, and many ministers also believed that Pan Rongrong was a beauty that brought disaster. The queen's maternal family joined forces with the ministers to submit a petition to kill her or expel her.
The emperor overwhelmed his ministers and finally came up with the idea of marriage.
The ministers stopped making trouble.
One reason was to send this woman to An Ning State and let her cause trouble in the court of An Ning State.
Secondly, he could also take the opportunity to ask for a high amount of dowry from the Kingdom of An Ning.
The best of both worlds.
In order to restrain Pan Rongrong, the emperor recognized her and Lin Xiao as his wandering children.
They changed their names to Ji Rong and Ji Xiao. Ji Rong married the princess, while Ji Xiao stayed in the Northern Yan Palace.
The Emperor of Northern Yan had no idea that his "daughter" was not much younger than him.
So the old woman that Pan Rongrong hated was the queen of Northern Yan, who was about the same age as her.
Afterwards, Pan Rongrong came to Anning Country.
Envoy Wu Gong is from the Queen's side, and is used to monitor Pan Rongrong. If she cannot serve Beiyan, she will be killed and the blame will be put on Anning Kingdom, and Beiyan can then demand compensation from Anning Kingdom.
Bei Yan's abacus beads were clacking loudly, but she didn't expect that Pan Rongrong had "taken care of" Wu Gong along the way. Now Wu Gong is her man, and he follows her lead.
Tsk tsk, whose princess is so coquettish!
I have to say that Pan Rongrong is indeed very resourceful.
I was able to succeed because of my golden finger, but Pan Rongrong relied entirely on herself.
If she hadn't met me, I'm afraid she would have continued to cause chaos in the court of An Ning Kingdom, and maybe she would have really become the empress dowager one day.
Although Pan Rongrong was forced to marry a foreign prince, she still had many loyal fans in Beiyan, especially those literati, who were not only obsessed with her beauty, but also admired her attainments in poetry and prose.
Gu Xi said:
"Don't cut off contact with them. Write some poems to them often and try to turn all your fans into accomplices."
Pan Rongrong said awkwardly:
"I have written all the poems I can recite to them. Now I don't know what to write. What poems do you remember?"
Gu Xi asked: "How much did you write to them?"
Pan Rongrong said: "There seem to be twenty."
Gu Xi was speechless. Even elementary school students know much more than you.
She bought a collection of Tang and Song poems in the space mall, took it out of the drawer and handed it to Pan Rongrong:
"Go ahead and copy it."
Pan Rongrong was overjoyed. With this book, she would be able to pretend to be cool for another ten years.
She looked at the three people warily again:
"Don't steal my poems, and don't tell others that I plagiarized them."
A few people uttered "tsk". They were people who wanted to do big things. Who wanted to gain fame and reputation by plagiarizing?
Anyway, Gu Xi will popularize nine-year compulsory education sooner or later, and everyone will know these poems in the future.
Pan Rongrong added:
"There is one more thing. I came to An Ning Kingdom for marriage. Which prince are you going to support to ascend the throne? I will marry him."
Well, from now on she will be both the Queen Mother of Northern Yan and the Queen of Anning Kingdom. Which woman in this world can be more powerful than her?
Chu Zhao and Lin Xiaoxuan were too lazy to pay attention to her. Lan Wei knew very little about government affairs. Gu Xi said:
"We won't take sides. How about you try to conquer the emperor? He is still strong and healthy."
Pan Rongrong said disdainfully:
"Too old. Younger-than-younger relationships are popular now. I want to find a younger brother. Old men are not good in that aspect..."
Gu Xi's face was full of black lines.
Cough, cough, it is said that women are like wolves at thirty and like tigers at forty... The ancients were not deceiving me.
"Well, it's a little difficult for you to have both power and beauty. Emperor Jichang looks quite strong. Maybe he can live for a long time." Gu Xi said.
"Is that so? Then I'll think about it again." Pan Rongrong said.
Gu Xi learned from her some more about the Northern Yan Kingdom and had some ideas in mind.
When I returned to the ward, Lin Yuxue had woken up and her face had regained color.
Ren Ying'er followed Gu Xi's instructions. Although she didn't know how to give an acupuncture injection, she had no problem removing the needle.
"Dean, thank you for saving my young lady!" As soon as Ren Ying'er saw Gu Xi, she knelt down and kowtowed.
Gu Xi quickly helped her up and said:
"I can cure her disease, but I can't cure her heart. She is determined to die. Your efforts may be in vain."
Lin Yuxue, who had been lying motionless, moved her eyes and glanced at Gu Xi, but her eyes were still lifeless.
This is a standard beauty. Even though she is starving to the point of losing her shape, her stunning beauty is still hard to conceal. I feel pity for her just by looking at her.
"Miss!" Ren Ying'er burst into tears. She knew what the young lady was feeling, but she could do nothing about it.
"Dean, please save the young lady!" Ren Ying'er was about to kowtow again, but was stopped by Gu Xi.
Gu Xi sighed and said:
"Go to the kitchen and cook some porridge for her. You have to make her willing to eat first."
Ren Ying'er agreed, and Gu Xi followed her out of the ward.
Gu Xi asked the kitchen staff to cook porridge, and she took Ren Ying'er back to the dean's office.
Ren Ying'er cried and told the story of the Lin Mansion.
Lin Chezhi, the prefect of Huizhou, has three sons and one daughter. Lin Yuxue is his only daughter, and has been treated like a jewel in the palm of her parents and three brothers since childhood.
Lin Yuxue had a childhood sweetheart, Geng Renmian, who was the son of Geng Shouxin, the Tongzhi of Huizhou.
Magistrate Lin dotes on his daughter and doesn't want her to suffer any grievances by marrying into a wealthy family, so he feels more at ease marrying his daughter to the son of his subordinate.
Three months ago, on their wedding day, Geng Renmian and Geng Shouxin led people to raid the Lin residence and sent Lin Yuxue's father Lin Chezhi and her three brothers to the guillotine.
All the women and servants in the mansion were charged with crimes and sold out by the government.
Ren Ying'er escaped the disaster because she was already a free person.
Now, the prefect of Huizhou has become Geng Renmian, who made meritorious reports.
After all, Ren Ying'er was just a maid, and she didn't know much about many things. She only knew that on the day of the young lady's wedding, she happily waited for the sedan chair to pick her up.
As a result, the gentle and elegant brother Mian, whom she admired so much, did come. He rode on his horse, looked down at Lin Yuxue and said:
"Bitch! You are the daughter of a convicted official, and you still dream of me marrying you in a sedan chair? For the sake of your pretty face, I can reluctantly buy you back to be my concubine!"
Lin Yuxue was so angry that she vomited blood on the spot. She looked at Geng Renmian with cold eyes and said:
"I, Lin Yuxue, will not let you go even if I become a ghost!"
Then he tried to commit suicide by banging his head against the wall, but was saved by Ren Ying'er.
Perhaps Geng Renmian was afraid of Lin Yuxue's ruthlessness, or perhaps Geng Shouxin did not allow him to marry the daughter of a guilty official, the Geng family did not snatch her away, but allowed Lin Yuxue and other female family members to be taken away by the government.
The women of the Lin family were taken to various places to be sold. Ren Ying'er chased them to the capital and found an opportunity to buy Lin Yuxue.
