Everything the queen says is right

Chapter 198 Chapter 198, the emperor’s nephew is willing to go

After understanding this matter, the eldest princess turned into an out-and-out action person, doing whatever she said, and even wore a court dress that symbolized her identity as the eldest princess.

When the eldest princess walked out of the room, Ah Cha was shocked.

"Comrade Princess, are you... too formally dressed?"

I really don’t blame her for making such a fuss. In fact, court uniforms are usually worn during sacrificial ceremonies or government affairs. These are extremely solemn occasions.

Why is the eldest princess wearing court clothes now?

Before Ah Cha could ask her doubts, the eldest princess took the initiative to explain.

"Comrade Ah Cha, aren't I just going to give the prince a big gift?"

"But what does giving big gifts have to do with wearing court clothes?"

In response to Ah Cha's question, the eldest princess smiled lightly and arranged her clothes slowly.

"Ah Cha, what if my good imperial brother knew that one day I would compromise with the prince, and even wear court clothes and personally invite the prince to a flower-viewing banquet?"

What will happen.

This answer was tacitly understood by both Ah Cha and the eldest princess.

Court clothes are generally worn on extremely important occasions, and the occasions when the eldest princess wears court clothes are mostly when she meets the emperor or the queen mother.

And now the eldest princess wears court clothes and openly goes to see the prince. Doesn't this mean that the eldest princess has compromised with the prince and is used by the prince?
The emperor only pursued immortality, but this definitely did not mean that the emperor was a fool who did not care about worldly affairs.

If the eldest princess humbled herself and saw the prince and the goddess conspiring with the prince at the same time, the impact on the emperor's heart would be immeasurable.

Adding these two charges together, it would not be an exaggeration for the emperor to believe that the prince wanted to usurp the throne.

There is no room for snoring on the side of the couch.

Even if that person is his biological son or the country's crown prince.

Let alone the prince, even the Queen Mother personally coming to persuade him would not be able to dispel the suspicion in the emperor's heart.

In addition, the eldest princess only planned to maintain the superficial compromise, but she had already made up her mind to use the etiquette of the elders to suppress the prince.

Ah Cha couldn't even imagine how exciting this trip would be for the eldest princess.

"Comrade Princess, can you take me with you when you go?"

Acha blinked her bright eyes and spoke her heart.

Although she knew it would be a bit presumptuous, the possibility of the eldest princess taking her there was a little slim.

But she really didn't want to miss such an excellent opportunity for gossip and such a great show.

Regarding her idea, the eldest princess shook her head gently, but she denied it irresistibly.

"Comrade Acha, it can't be done."

If the eldest princess was quite repelled by going to the Prince's Mansion before, now she is completely looking forward to it.

After seeing Acha immediately shrugging her head off, the eldest princess smiled even more wantonly.

"Comrade Ah Cha, I'm going to take the first step, just wait and celebrate for me."

"All right."

Now the envy in Acha's heart has really reached its extreme. She really wants to watch the fun.

But she also knew very well that if she followed to join in the fun at this time, the emperor would definitely suspect them together.

So she was just talking about it for fun.

She couldn't do such a burning thing even if she was killed.

The eldest princess nodded slightly to her, then raised her head and chest, and walked towards the Prince's Mansion with high spirits.

"Dong dong dong dong dong dong dong dong dong dong dong dong dong -"

To say that the manpower the eldest princess was looking for was really not a freeloader, when she arrived in front of the Prince's Mansion with noisy gongs and drums, she had already attracted the attention of a large number of people.

The eldest princess actually got off the sedan in advance and walked step by step towards the door of the Prince's Mansion.

"Princess arrives—"

The eldest princess not only wore court clothes, but also brought out her own ceremonial guard for the eldest princess.

"I am here today to deliver an invitation to His Highness the Crown Prince!"

"His Royal Highness, please also meet with me!"

The eldest princess brushed her body and showed full respect in etiquette.

Because of this formation, more and more people gathered in front of the Prince's Mansion, surrounding the eldest princess and her men.

The guard guarding the door originally did not dare to let the eldest princess enter the palace under the order of the prince. Now seeing that the situation was not right, he ran towards the prince's study as fast as he could.

"Your Highness, it's not good! It's not good!"

The prince was already dealing with official duties and was upset, and now he was even more furious when he heard the guards shouting.

"What's wrong with that? What's wrong with you shouting like that!"

The guard was yelled at by the prince and immediately stopped what he wanted to say. He stood firmly in front of the prince, not daring to say another word.

It is indeed a big deal for the eldest princess to come to the house in a rage, but now that the prince is angry, if he says the wrong thing again, his life will be lost.

No matter how important it is to report the news, it is not as important as your own life.

Because of this wasted time, the eldest princess stood motionless at the door, causing the people to talk a lot.

"The prince is too arrogant. As his aunt, the eldest princess sent the invitation so sincerely, but he is not willing to meet her."

"Yes, if you ask me, the prince is using his status as the crown prince to embarrass the eldest princess."

"Not only that, I think the prince has got carried away and has completely forgotten his identity."

"Even if you forget your identity, you should never embarrass your elders. No matter what you say, the eldest princess is still the prince's aunt."

"Things between these nobles are very complicated. Maybe the prince has a lot of thoughts hidden in his heart. We ordinary people should not talk too much about it."

The eldest princess was so close that she naturally heard every comment made by the people.

The smile in her eyes even deepened.

The current situation is much better than she expected.

She arranged for one or two people to mingle among the people to stir up discussion.

But she never expected that people would be so moved by this incident.

Those who win the hearts of the people win the world.

As long as the prince loses the support of the people and is doubted by the emperor, he will soon be on his way to death and will never be able to stand out again.

On the other hand, what about the prince?

He didn't realize at all what impact the eldest princess' visit would have on him. He even suddenly remembered the existence of this guard after finally calming down his emotions.

He gently rubbed his eyebrows and asked extremely impatiently.

"What on earth did you want to say just now?"

"When I return to His Highness, I want to say... about the eldest princess..."

The guard wanted to continue, but he hesitated after seeing the prince's face.

"I want you to say——"

The prince's patience has reached its lowest point.

He didn't want to hear this guard hesitating here again.

"Yes, yes, this subordinate will say it."

The guard was so frightened by his roar that his souls flew around. He finally calmed himself down and hurriedly confessed as if to save his life.

"The eldest princess is wearing court clothes, carrying her own ceremonial guard, and beating gongs and drums all the way to the door of the mansion to deliver invitations to you. Look..."

"What?! You said the eldest princess came in person?"

The prince was so shocked that he jumped up from his chair and asked the guard in disbelief.

"Yes, the eldest princess came in person. She has been standing in front of the mansion for a while now..."

"Didn't I ask you to reject that invitation?"

"And why didn't you tell me earlier!"

Ah? ? ?
To be honest, the guard felt really aggrieved.

They really rejected the invitation, but who would have thought that the eldest princess would come to the door in person.

Besides, he wanted to tell the prince earlier, but the prince didn't listen at all.

However, the prince didn't expect to hear any answer from his mouth, so he hurried to the front of the mansion in a panic.

Even if he had no idea, he still knew very well the significance of the eldest princess' coming to his house.

It's true that the eldest princess is his elder.

No matter from the perspective of national law or filial piety, it is completely unjustifiable for him to forcefully let his elders stand in front of his house for so long.

"boom--"

The eldest princess watched quietly as the door to the prince's mansion, which had been closed for a long time, was finally opened.

Well, it turned out that her good nephew still knew how to come out to see her.

She originally thought that her nephew would remain a coward and hide away.

"Your Highness, I am holding a flower viewing banquet tomorrow on the order of the Queen Mother. I am here to send you an invitation today."

If you want to kill someone, you have to be the first to do it.

As the eldest princess spoke, the attendant beside her handed the invitation to the prince with a wink.

The prince was still staring blankly at the eldest princess in front of him and the people who had surrounded the gate of the prince's mansion.

"How can you untouchables like you stay at the gate of this palace for a long time! Why don't you disperse quickly!"

The prince didn't want today's events to be spread among the people, so he angrily rebuked the people without any thought.

Oh, this is the enemy bringing the opportunity to him.

"Your Highness, these people are here with me and have nothing to do with anyone else. I beg you not to blame them."

The eldest princess's words were not only sincere, but she also made it clear that she wanted to protect these people.

What the people want to see most is that those in power can understand them.

Obviously, the eldest princess's words to defend them just grasped their psychology.

There is always someone bold in the crowd who speaks out first.

"Your Highness, the eldest princess is your elder after all, so there is no reason for you to act like a junior!"

"Isn't that right? Whose junior is so ignorant of etiquette that he leaves his elder alone at the door?"

"Yes, I saw that the eldest princess's attitude could not be lower. She even used the word 'please' to the prince."

The people's accusations against the prince came like snowflakes, which caught the prince even more unprepared.

"How presumptuous! Shut up, all you untouchables!"

"Come here! Go and arrest these untouchables in this palace!"

Although the prince's order was effective, his group of guards stood by the door and looked at each other.

The people outside far outnumbered them.

No matter how powerful their martial arts are, the common people can't catch them all.

Moreover, the eldest princess also expressed her attitude to protect these people.

Even if they borrow ten of their courage, they wouldn't dare to offend anyone between the eldest princess and the prince.

It is true that the prince is the crown prince, but the eldest princess is the prince's aunt, and is the favorite of both the queen mother and the emperor.

They couldn't afford to offend either of these two people.

Seeing this scene, the eldest princess was extremely satisfied.

But she had been standing for a long time, so she wanted to sit down.

"Your Highness, I am not in good health and am a little thirsty right now. I wonder if I can come into the house and ask for a cup of hot tea?"

The art in these words is evident.

As soon as her words came out, the people's sympathetic eyes fell on her one after another.

To the common people, the eldest princess's move was entirely to protect them and to submit to the prince.How lucky they are to have such understanding from a superior person.

It happened that the eldest princess was not satisfied with stopping at this step.

She turned around with difficulty and bowed deeply to all the people.

"Everyone, I would like to thank you for explaining this to His Highness the Crown Prince."

"It's just that His Highness the Crown Prince is still young and may not be thorough in his actions. I can understand that."

"It's getting late, so please leave."

His Royal Highness is still young?

God knows how the eldest princess could hold back her laughter when she said this.

Shouldn't a magnanimous elder be more tolerant of his juniors?
Besides, she had already defended the prince, what else could others ask her to do?

Anyone with eyes can tell whether the prince is young or not.

This move of hers was also to highlight her weakness.

By the way, it contrasts her... fear of the prince.

A fear, a flattery, plus contempt for the elders, these three points are enough for the prince to be drowned in the spit of the people.

And the prince himself knew it well.

The eldest princess has already said this. If he doesn't invite the eldest princess into the palace, he may face countless impeachments in the court.

Thinking about this, he could only honestly move aside and made a gesture of invitation.

"Since the eldest princess wants to have tea, then please do it."

Tsk, listen to that impatient tone.

The eldest princess shook her head helplessly in her heart.

This silly boy, the prince, is still too young after all.

It would be really difficult for him to fight against himself.

"Okay, I would like to thank Your Highness for your kind invitation."

There should be no less grievance and pity.

When she stepped into the mansion, the prince's expression immediately changed.

"What are you untouchables still doing standing here?"

"Do we have to arrest all of you and put you in prison?"

The common people are not fools. They naturally see such a sharp contrast between the prince and the eldest princess, and have a contrast in their hearts.

After yelling at the people, the door of the Prince's Mansion was closed heavily as if he had a convulsion.

"boom--"

The prince's expression immediately changed as the sound fell.

"Is the eldest princess coming to our palace just to send this invitation and ask for a cup of tea?"

The eldest princess curled her lips and looked at him contemptuously.

"Then what does the prince think I am here for?"

The good show outside the door is over, and everyone is inside the Prince's Mansion. If he wants to die, it will be unreasonable for him to wrong himself again.

The eldest princess didn't expect the idiot prince to say anything, so she just took the invitation and threw it at the prince's feet.

"Prince, I won't beat around the bush with you. This flower viewing banquet is hosted by me on the orders of the Queen Mother. You must go whether you want to or not!"

"This is the first time I sent someone to deliver the invitation, but I didn't expect you to be unwilling to accept it, so I had no choice but to come in person."

"I just wonder if the prince is still willing to accept the invitation at this moment?"

The prince has always been favored by others, but when has he ever experienced such humiliation?

For him, what was thrown at his feet was not only an invitation to the flower viewing party, but also the dignity he valued most.

"How dare you! How dare you talk to me like this!"

"I will never go to this flower viewing party!"

not going?

"It's okay. Your Highness won't change your mind if you don't want to go. I don't want to force you."

The eldest princess showed no reaction, but the prince's eyelids twitched.

"I see that you have many staff around you, so why don't I just ask a small question."

"You think what will happen if the prince disrespects his elders according to royal rules?"

The staff looked at each other for a long time, and no one dared to stand up and speak.

What a joke.

According to the rules of the royal family, as long as they are elders, they must be polite and respectful.

Even the emperor must speak softly and control his temper when facing his elders.

And for those who disrespect their elders, the royal family's rules are even stricter.

The lighter ones are punished with thirty sticks, the more severe ones are punished with one hundred sticks.

The most important thing is that these criminal laws are implemented outside the Taiji Hall in front of the ministers.

Therefore, over the years, no matter how arrogant and domineering the members of the royal family are, they still treat the elders of the royal family with great respect.

It just so happened that the prince was such a thorn in his side. The eldest princess didn’t have much interaction with him in the past, so she just didn’t bother to care about it.

But if the calculations begin today, the prince will definitely have no way to survive.

There were also people among the staff who could judge the situation and quickly comforted the prince.

"Your Highness, just tell the eldest princess..."

"Shut up! I will never salute this woman!"

His reaction was as expected by the eldest princess.

So the eldest princess is not upset at all, she just wants to be a good Samaritan.

"Prince, I advise you to think clearly. If I leave the Prince's Mansion and this matter reaches the ears of my mother and brother, I don't know how they will deal with you."

Yes, the eldest princess wants to put the threat on the table.

Even if she borrowed the prince's courage, he would not dare to make things worse.

Sure enough, her words succeeded in causing the prince's silence level to soar.

The prince himself knew that what the eldest princess told was the truth.

As long as today's events are spread out, the Queen Mother, Emperor, civil and military officials and even the people will not let him go.

Not only was he disrespecting the eldest princess, but he was also challenging the world's ethics.

It was obvious that he could not withstand such a challenge.

So the only way left for him was compromise.

He wanted to run away, but the eldest princess's sharp gaze seemed to be fixed on him.

Leaving him with no way to escape.

"Prince, have you made your decision? My patience is running out."

The eldest princess's lazy voice was like a reminder to the prince at this moment.

He prepared mentally for a long time, gritted his teeth, and then opened his mouth with difficulty as if squeezing out ointment.

"The emperor...the emperor's nephew has met...the emperor's aunt...aunt, I wish the emperor...aunt's health..."

But he just talked and didn't move at all.

The eldest princess raised her eyebrows and asked, "Is this the prince's courtesy?"

"The emperor's nephew dare not, so please forgive me, the emperor's aunt." The prince gritted his teeth and bowed reluctantly to complete the ceremony.

"I'm thirsty. Is there any tea here, Prince?"

"Yes...yes, this palace...no, the emperor's nephew will send someone to bring it right now!"

The first time was the second time, and the prince had learned his lesson well. He didn't want the eldest princess to make this matter worse and get punished by the stick himself.

"Prince, I have always been picky. I will not drink tea other than Longjing imperial tea. In the past, the emperor's brother in the palace was..."

Before she could finish her request, the prince quickly interrupted her.

"Okay, the emperor's nephew will go and prepare for the emperor's aunt in person."

Now he just wants to send the eldest princess away as soon as possible, no matter what method is used.

"Well, then I will be disrespectful."

But after the prince left, the smile on the eldest princess's face kept growing little by little.

The prince is still too naive.

He has already entered his residence. Even if the news of his disrespect for his elders is not spread in the end, the emperor will still know that he has come to the prince's residence today.

For a eldest princess to treat the prince like this, it shows that the prince is powerful and wants to crush the emperor.

It's a pity that the prince hasn't discovered this great gift yet.

"Auntie Huang, please have some tea."

The prince performed the etiquette perfectly and his attitude was respectful.

"Okay, the prince has a heart."

The eldest princess took the teacup casually and drank the tea in one gulp.

Then he threw the tea cup in front of everyone.

Yes, it just fell.

"Clap-"

The crisp sound of porcelain tiles echoed in everyone's heart.

No one could figure out what kind of medicine the eldest princess was selling in her gourd.

Even the prince stood there blankly, not knowing what to say or do.

"Prince, I ask you again, will you accept this invitation or not?"

"Are you coming to the flower viewing party tomorrow or not?"

The prince was confused.

No, why does this topic revolve around this again?

He has obviously rejected the eldest princess.

But now he didn't dare to say any rebuttal at all.

The ceremony of saluting and serving tea just now was still fresh in his mind, and he was really afraid that the eldest princess would use etiquette to suppress him.

"Prince, my patience is limited. I only give you three numbers of time to think. If you don't accept the invitation after three numbers, then don't blame me for reporting it to the Queen Mother directly."

The prince blinked rapidly, his brain running at high speed.

"three!"

If only he could discuss things with his staff directly in front of the eldest princess, then he wouldn't be as at a loss as he is now.

"two!"

But the eldest princess also said that if he didn't go, he would bring this matter to the Queen Mother.

Although the Queen Mother was his grandmother, the most important thing the Queen Mother lacked was a sweet-tongued grandson. She had always been clumsy and did not like the Queen Mother at all.

Therefore, it is impossible for the Queen Mother to protect herself at all.

And if you go by yourself, you will inevitably encounter more situations, which will be even worse.

"one!"

As the eldest princess finished the last number, the prince gave his answer.

"The emperor's nephew is willing to go!"
