"Ye Qingcheng is kind to her people and has made great contributions to the country. Today I specially make her the princess of Anping and grant her a palace, a number of servants and boys, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, a box of headgear, ten pieces of silk and satin, and a hundred taels of gold. "
After a burst of boasting, the emperor did not end with empty talk. Instead, he had a bigger reward waiting for him.
Ye Qingcheng was so dizzy by the sudden surprise that after hearing the emperor's words, she forgot to step forward to receive the order and stared blankly.
It was Princess Xiyue who couldn't help but remind her that she came to her senses and quickly walked to the center of the hall, knelt down and kowtowed in thanks.
"My dear, thank you for your kindness and reward, Your Majesty." Ye Qingcheng thanked her in a loud voice.
Although there may be people present who don't like her and can't stand her, but in front of the emperor, on an occasion like today, no one would be stupid enough to open his mouth and get into trouble.
The Marquis of Yongchang clenched his fists and sat down with a gloomy face. From time to time he raised his head to look at the Queen Mother in the high position.
On such an occasion today, the Queen Mother did not bring Lian'er in to attend.
This is the first time such a thing has happened.
In the past, no matter what banquet there was in the palace, the Queen Mother always took Lian'er with her and never left her behind.
But today, the Queen Mother clearly knew that Lian'er liked His Highness the King of War, but she still didn't bring Lian'er in.
Ever since His Royal Highness the King of War ruined the imperial edict, Lian'er has been depressed in the attached middle school for two months. Although the city was closed for so long due to tuberculosis infection, the seal has been lifted now, but the Queen Mother has not even asked. Marquis Yongchang has expressed his opinion.
Today, my mother originally wanted to go to the palace to intercede with the Empress Dowager, but the Empress Dowager refused her because of the importance of state affairs. Now it is good, Ye Qingcheng has received such an award and is already a princess, with a higher status than his daughter. After entering Prince Zhan's Mansion, I still don't know how to bully his daughter.
He had to think of a way to get the emperor to also make Lian'er the princess, so that the status of the two would be the same, and even if he entered the palace in the future, he would have to be a concubine.
Jun Mochen had long promised that he would only have one wife in his life, but he had actually heard such talk but took it seriously.
I was still thinking about it. The emperor had already granted me a marriage, and His Highness the War King had to accept Lian'er.
Here, Yongchang Hou was making his own plans, while Ye Qingcheng, after thanking her, returned to her seat. None of the delicious food could attract her anymore. She was thinking that her efforts this time were indeed not in vain. She actually became a county official. Damn it, what kind of support does she have? She is already a member of the royal family.
Throughout the banquet, Ye Qingcheng received unprecedented attention. Some were envious, some were jealous, and some were even more hateful. Of course, there were also some who were happy for her.
For example, Princess Xiyue has now come over and sat next to her chattering.
"Qingcheng, you don't know that since you and Uncle Zhan Wang went to the tuberculosis village, this princess has been worried day and night, unable to eat or sleep. But I never expected that you are so powerful and can really control The tuberculosis has been cured, but if you ask me, it would be a pity if you didn’t join the palace and become a female medical official!"
She nodded as she spoke, feeling that what she said was indeed right. Even Divine Doctor Xue admired Ye Qingcheng's medical skills. It would be a pity for her not to enter the palace.
Ye Qingcheng shook his head, "What are you thinking about? Isn't it good for me to be a princess and live at ease every day? Why do I also want to enter the palace? Why do I like to work so much?"
When Princess Xiyue heard this, she thought the same thing. After entering the palace, she had to follow these rules and that all day long, which was very annoying.
Being a princess is quite good. You have status, rights, and money. Why would you want to be a female medical official in the palace? It's so tiring.
So she nodded, "That's what you said. It's my princess' fault."
After saying that, he approached Ye Qingcheng and said in a low voice, "Qingcheng, do you have any fun place? Take me to play? I'm almost bored to death in this palace! I spend the whole day either studying this or that."
Ye Qingcheng raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "Is your mother-in-law asking you to leave the palace?"
She does have a lot of fun things to do. If nothing else, it would be nice to go out and ride a horse or go hunting in the mountains for a ride.
However, as the palace lord, can her mother and concubine allow her to go out of the palace to play at will? This should be difficult.
Princess Xiyue nodded, "My mother-in-law said, let me balance work and rest. As long as I study hard, she will let me go out and relax appropriately. I have been studying for almost two months and haven't been able to go out of the palace for a walk.
If I tell her, she will definitely agree."
Ye Qingcheng understood that there were still conditions for leaving the palace. If she didn't study hard, there would be no way out.
"Okay, as long as you can leave the palace, I will take you to horse racing and hunting!"
She knew that Princess Xiyue was lively and cheerful, with a restless temper. If she was asked to sit there embroidering, she might not be able to bear it for half an hour, but if she was asked to ride a horse, shoot arrows, run around and play around, she would definitely
He is the most lively and fun-loving one.
The original owner was too quiet in the past, and he didn't know how two people so different from each other could become friends.
When Princess Xiyue heard this, she looked at her in shock, "Really? You're not kidding me, are you? I thought you would at most say take me to study in a department or go shopping. When will you learn to ride a horse?"
Already?"
Ye Qingcheng nodded. She had learned how to start a horse in her previous life. Although she was only running in a racecourse, she was good at horseback riding. She should have no problem running a horse here.
"I have learned it in the past few years! When the time comes to catch prey, I will bake it for you!" Ye Qingcheng said again, and Princess Xiyue wanted to pull him away immediately. She did not want to participate in any palace banquet.
She also really wanted to relax. After coming here, she had been running around for survival, and she felt a little depressed.
Coupled with the fatigue of more than one month and nearly two months, she is a glutton and can hardly stand it anymore.
The two people started planning where to go at this boring party.
"Let's go to Xishan to play. The place there is spacious and the scenery is good..." Princess Xiyue was so excited that her voice could not help but rise a lot.
However, by now they had been drinking for three rounds, and the informal generals were already drinking too much and were talking loudly.
Not many people were sitting in their seats properly, the emperor, the queen and the queen mother had already left.
"Xiyue, what are you talking about Xishan? What happened to Xishan?"
Just as Princess Xiyue was talking enthusiastically, the fourth prince patted her back from behind and asked.
"Ah..." Princess Xiyue was startled and shouted directly.
It didn't matter that he shouted, but it did attract some people's attention. Ye Qingcheng was already in the limelight today, and with Princess Xiyue's shout, the third prince also came over.
"Fourth brother, do you want to scare me to death?" Princess Xiyue glared angrily, but turned around and changed her face, and said excitedly, "Fourth brother, we are planning to go to Xishan for horse racing and barbecue, will you go?
"
Ye Qingcheng covered his face, this is really a loudspeaker, the secrets of the two people have been revealed in the past few days.
"Go! How about I, the prince, go too?"
Before the fourth prince could speak or nod, the third prince who came from behind answered the question first.
"Third brother, are you joining in the fun?" Princess Xiyue looked at the third prince, "You can follow if you want, but... let me ride your bloody horse for a day!"
