A quick journey starting from Wu Dalang

Chapter 166: Being a Perfect Man in My Fair Princess (1)

"Your Majesty, the Sixth Prince has consulted Concubine Ling and the Emperor about this matter, and the Emperor has agreed." Aunt Rong didn't want the Queen to make the Emperor angry because of this matter.

"How can the emperor act like this?" The queen said with a look of disapproval.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor is the Son of Heaven," Aunt Rong reminded her. Only then did the Queen calm down and close her eyes.

"That's all."

In Shufangzhai, Erkang finally saw the legendary Princess He'an. He suddenly realized that Princess He'an was the girl who blocked the imperial carriage. Ziwei also recognized Erkang and greeted him politely.

"Guard Fu, so you are Fifth Brother's study partner?"

"Do you know each other?" Yongqi was very surprised.

"When the princess accidentally disturbed the emperor, it was I who handled the matter. I thought the princess had been wronged and even left a token. I guess the princess wanted to recognize her relatives," Erkang explained.

"Guard Fu's jade pendant is still on Yinhuan." Yinhuan handed the jade pendant to Ziwei, who gave it back to Erkang: "Thank you, Guard Fu."

"It's okay, Princess, just take it. If there's any day when you need my help, just take the jade pendant and tell me." Erkang politely refused the jade pendant. He didn't want to have no relationship with Ziwei anymore.

"Guard Fu means well, but keeping your things will inevitably arouse suspicion of private transfer, so please accept it." Yinhuan looked at the embarrassed Ziwei and refused.

Erkang had no choice but to take back his jade pendant. He was of course well aware of the consequences of giving it privately, but in his heart he still hoped that Ziwei would accept his jade pendant even at the cost of violating palace rules, just like Qing'er did.

No one knew what Erkang was thinking, and the matter just passed so easily. Shi Yi looked at Erkang, who was somewhat unwilling, and sneered silently in his heart. On the one hand, he was flirting with Princess Qing, and on the other hand, he wanted to have something to do with Ziwei. Was he worthy of that?

Everyone seemed to be having a lively time, but Xiaoyanzi noticed Erkang's disappointment and subconsciously excluded him. Compared to the unfamiliar Erkang, Ziwei was more important to her.

After this incident, Erkang found that the Fifth Prince had become a little colder towards him. Instead, his younger brother Ertai was favored by the Fifth Prince, which made Erkang feel lost and uncomfortable.

After all, they are brothers, and Erkang will not block his brother's future. However, he also understands that it is not possible to take shortcuts by using the Fifth Prince. So Qing'er, who he had not thought about for a long time, returned to his heart.

It just so happened that at this time, the Queen Mother also returned from worshiping Buddha at Mount Wutai. Qing'er had sent a message to Erkang long ago. If nothing unexpected happened, Qing'er would ask the Queen Mother to grant the two of them a marriage soon.

The Queen started preparing early in the morning, and Concubine Ling was also busy. Xia Yuhe watched the two girls learn palace rules and etiquette, and also had to prepare gifts for the Queen Mother, so she was also very busy.

Even Yongqi had no time to please Xiaoyanzi, as his mother was coming back with the Queen Mother, and he had to be filial to her.

Feeling the serious atmosphere, the usually playful Xiaoyanzi restrained herself a little, leaving Shiyi, who was watching the fun, with no fun at all. Until the eve of returning to the palace, Xiaoyanzi, who had been suppressed for so long, finally started to act up.

It cannot be said that she was acting like a demon. After all, it was Xiaoyanzi's good intentions. She and Ziwei made some snacks by hand and specially made them into lotus shapes to please the Queen Mother.

"What's going on? Why haven't He'an and Shu come yet?" The emperor did not see the two children among the people who came to welcome the empress dowager, so he hurriedly asked Xia Yuhe.

"I don't know either." Xia Yuhe was also confused. The two children had clearly gone out early in the morning.

Just when the emperor was about to inquire, the empress dowager's sedan chair had already arrived. The emperor had no choice but to bring a group of concubines and ministers to pay respect to the empress dowager first: "Your son pays his respects to the Empress Dowager."

"Your servants/your servants pay their respects to the Empress Dowager."

"Everyone, get up." The Queen Mother smiled with satisfaction. Just as she was about to ask about Xia Yuhe and the two princesses, she was interrupted by the noise.

"Greetings to the Empress Dowager." Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei held snacks and said with smiles.

"What are you holding in your hands?" The Queen Mother looked at the two little girls and was willing to give them some face.

"This is the lotus cake we made by ourselves," Xiaoyanzi smiled happily and handed over the plate.

The nanny beside the Queen Mother took the snacks and retreated to the Queen Mother's side. Seeing that the Queen Mother did not eat, Xiaoyanzi wanted to say something but was stopped by Ziwei. The two of them retreated back into the crowd.

The matter passed just like that simply, but the Queen Mother couldn't help but feel bad about Xiaoyanzi. However, due to Ziwei's tactfulness, she didn't show it. The Emperor was also relieved, because he liked his daughter Xiaoyanzi and naturally didn't want her to be punished.

However, the guard of honor behind the Queen Mother suddenly became chaotic. For some reason, a horse suddenly went crazy and was about to hurt the Queen Mother. At the critical moment, Shiyi and Ziwei Xiaoyanzi stepped forward.

Xiaoyanzi blocked the horse's attack for the Queen Mother and was kicked aside. Shiyi helped the Queen Mother away, and Ziwei killed the horse with one palm. This scene shocked everyone. Even the Queen, who had some complaints about Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei, had to admit that they were indeed excellent.

"Someone come, protect the emperor, protect the emperor!" The guards, palace maids and eunuchs hurriedly dealt with the horse's body and came to check on the conditions of the few people. Xiaoyanzi was carried by Rong Mama to a palace room nearby to rest.

Several imperial doctors rushed over. Fortunately, the Queen Mother, Shiyi and Ziwei were all fine. Only Xiaoyanzi was unconscious. Yongqi was extremely anxious.

"What happened to He Shu?"

"In reply to Fifth Prince, the princess suffered a severe blow to the head. I have already used medicine. If she cannot wake up tomorrow morning, I am afraid... even if she wakes up, I am afraid she will suffer from headaches in the future."

Yongqi looked at Xiaoyanzi with sadness in his eyes. He had not yet had the chance to tell Xiaoyanzi his feelings. The Queen Mother felt a little reluctant. If it were not for Xiaoyanzi, she would be the one lying here. All of a sudden, her liking for Xiaoyanzi reached its peak.

"Why would this horse go crazy for no reason?" the emperor asked in a deep voice.

"I have checked it out. The horse was bitten by insects and went mad. It was indeed an accident." Fu Heng, who came hurriedly, checked it out and immediately reported to the emperor.

The unexpected accident made the emperor unable to find a way to vent his anger. He could only pray for Xiaoyanzi in his heart. Everyone in the room fell into silence.

Shiyi was not worried at all. With the halo of the heroine, Xiaoyanzi would be fine. The problem Shiyi was considering now was that according to the general plot, Xiaoyanzi would probably recover her memory.
