Gu Fang Bu Zi Shang Vol02 Ch53
When Gui Changqing learned of Bai Pingting’s death, it felt like the huge stone in his heart had been put to rest He was so happy he iovenor, after strictly telling him to keep it a secret
He didn’t quite exactly knohether the situation had really i clouds of unnecessary loss of life over Yun Chang had suddenly dispersed Not only did the war not begin, Chu Beijie was still utterly distraught over theLin was an entireThe co in the Prince Consort’s hands had also returned to the Princess as there were no ht
“Haha,” laughed Gui Changqing, overco step was done well”
He did hope that others wouldn’t find out Bai Pingting’s death had to do with Yun Chang He had kept the secret for several days, waiting until Bei Mo had openly ’s death to the rest of the world Only then did he head to the Royal Residence to tell Princess Yaotian
“Died?” Yaotian was taken aback She lowered her voice, “Didn’t I tell Senior Official the battle is over hence it’s fine to leave Pingting to her own life and death Why didn’t you let her go?”
“Princess ting atte border, thinking to enter Bei Mo by crossing the Songsen Mountains Unfortunately, her wisdoht her to her demise She met wolves in the mountains”
Yaotian was dubious She re, “Does the Prince Consort know?”
“The news has already spread Prince Consort should already knows” Yaotian sighed heavily Gui Changqing was curious, “What’s wrong, Princess? Bai Pingting died a premature death Is this not to the benefit of Princess?”
Yaotian’s s died, his mood must be terrible If he’s upset, how could I possibly not be either?”
Gui Changqing saw Yaotian deeply cherished He Xia and was secretly alared the subject “Coave an Order to build the arranary I have temporarily suspended this Order”
Yaotian looked at Gui Changqing surprised “Military affairs are urgent Even if we hurry, it’s still not quick enough Why did Senior Official suspend it?”
“I think, this isn’t quite right”
“He is a dignified Prince Consort What isn’t quite right about hiranary?”
“Princess, listen tostood up and took two steps forward His tone was very warm “The Prince Consort already has rain and money If he has both, what else does Princess have to rein back the Prince Consort?”
Yaotian sighed faintly “I know Senior Official is thinking about me However, I am already husband and ith the Prince Consort He has been working hard day and night for Yun Chang, however, we keep suspecting hi to hold him back Senior Official, is that really okay? He and I are now one Don’t forget, his future son will beco one day”
Fros between anise Many people had fallen into its trap, and they could not be pulled out whatsoever
If Yaotian was a nor was utterly perfect in every way However, she was the representative of Yun Chang’s Royal House
Gui Changqing kneould be difficult to convince further, but he had to continue He coughed once before softly continuing, “Princess, do you re day?”
“My wedding day?” Yaotian’s expression was one of recollection She laughed shallowly, “How could I forget it? That day, Yaotian was feeling very uneasy and asked Senior Official into the room to have a private conversation with me”
“Princess wondered hoas possible to keep He Xia’s heart and toldbowed, “Back then, I promised Princess that I’ll put my heart into it”
When Yaotian heard this, her gaze flickered beyond him She slowly said, “Yet today, why do I feel that every action of Senior Official is to force the Prince Consort’s person and heart further and further away from me?”
“Princess…”
“Senior Official doesn’t need to say any more” Yaotian interrupted his word She paused before revealing a solemn expression of determination “I have already proranary for the military This is beneficial to the citizens of this country, so please do not argue any further, Senior Official, and quickly approve of it”
Gui Changqing hesitated as well Studying Yaotian’s expression, he knew that it was ie her hed
Gui Changqing had been the official for many years and was considerate Yaotian had always, since childhood, respected him as an elder She never dismissed his opinions so abruptly before hi ti else Senior Official would like to tell me?”
Gui Changqing indeed have so he wanted to say
“Ahe else”
“Hm?”
“I would like to ask Princess to give a person to the Prince Consort”
Yaotian was slightly stunned She looked at Gui Changqing, “Who?”
“My newly adopted daughter, Huan Fengyin Although she isn’t particularly beautiful, she is very gentle and likes to play qin and can sing She is loyal and dedicated to the Royal House of Yun Chang”
Yaotian processed what she heard When she understood, her heart was very uncomfortable She coldly replied, “Senior Official would like me to send a concubine to the Prince Consort Residence?”
“Yun Chang has prohibitions on expression, as a result Prince Consort and Princess do not live together There must be at least one concubine in the Prince Consort Residence After all, the Prince Consort al to a concubine last ti is dead, why doesn’t Princess be a little open and give one to Prince Consort?”
Yaotian’s expression was ugly “Who says that the Prince Consort Residence needs a concubine? I am the Princess If prohibitions can rise, then so can they fall”
Gui Changqing se, but can people’s hearts change? Rather than letting the Prince Consort choose someone who Princess doesn’t like, it’s better for Princess to choose someone who can help Princess look after Prince Consort With her there, the Prince Consort can’t easily get another Concubine and, if the Prince Consort’s heart is taken away by someone else, at least there’s soe”
The Princess’ chest began to tighten She shook her head “No Others can be discussedbbut not this”
Gui Changqing kneas not the time to press on He stepped back, “Since it’s like that, I will depart Please consider it, Princess It’s not too late to act after careful consideration” He bowed and left the room
Yaotian watched the brief dazzle of the curtains She was the only one left in the rooqing’s various proposals She couldn’t help hate him secretly
What reigning back in, when he actually dared to want her to send in another?
She thought of how hateful the Yun Chang laere When woether with their husband Yet as the utterly pitiful Princess had to stay in the Royal Residence? It seemed there were two stars on opposite sides of the silver river One star was the Royal Residence, the other being the Prince Consort Residence, and the residents could only stay inside, watching the other miserably
However…
He Xia was strong and handsoh to shake the skies As a hero, he had had a great number of experiences in the world Now that he was the Prince Consort, he had more power and fame Just how many people secretly watched him from the darkness with red cheeks? How could she stop hi or even three?
What if the Prince Consort really fell in love with soed to establish her as a concubine? People would be interested to see what she, the dignified Princess, would do If she refused, everyone would be able to ridicule her jealous heart
Yaotian looked in the mirror, unsatisfied The jealousy in her eyes reflected in the ht She hurriedly fished out a scarf and covered the mirror
Luyi was outside the curtains “Princess, the dried flowers have arrived”
Yaotian’s mood was irritable and did not want to be disturbed by anyone She lifted her voice, “Take it away If there’s nothing major, don’t report it”
Luyi heard the anger hidden in her voice and jumped back She lowered her voice, “Yes” She secretly poked out her tongue, not knohat the Senior Official said that ry
When she was just about to take away the vase full of dried flowers and leave, she heard another order from Yaotian “Luyi, just wait there”
Luyi suddenly stopped, relying, “Yes” She waited outside the curtain
Why did she, as a Princess, have to stay in the Royal Residence? It was so unfair…
Yaotian thought about Gui Changqing’s proposal, carefully pondered it and realised it wasn’t unreasonable
That Fengyin was “not particularly beautiful”, so even if the Prince Consort finds her fresh at first, ten days or half a entle, likes to play qin and can sing” could only relieve the Prince Consort of his boredom
As a person the Senior Official found, Yaotian coyin She would pour tea at one side or sometimes be as close as a pillow to easily monitor the Prince Consort’s every action Secondly, if the Prince Consort really were to be hooked away by another wo noise, acting as the difficult corner of connection
“Indeed, it seems it is not entirely unreasonable” Yaotian ht of an extra concubine by He Xia’s side, her eyebrows furrowed and could feel not one part of her body be co
Luyi stood outside and heard Yaotian’s pacing footsteps Occasionally she’d bring the gems of the bead curtain to collide fiercely into each other, but not long later, there was no ap before she heard a voice from inside, “Luyi”
“Luyi is here, Princess”
“Send someone to the Senior Official and say…” The voice inside stopped again
Luyi strained her ears and waited for a long time She puzzledly looked inside the curtains
Yaotian was standing in the htened, and she was as motionless as a statue
“Princess?” Luyi probed with her question
