Empress Lin Ance

Chapter 76. Everyone Loves the Strong

**
"Bouncing and jumping, words and deeds are indistinct, and you dress up all day long. This is what the Taifu taught you. You really can't compare with Lin'an at all."

"..."

In the end, not only did Chu Rao not get the Changle Palace he had dreamed of for a long time, but he was also scolded by the queen mother for no reason.

As for the queen mother who had finished scolding others, her mood eased a lot at the moment.

……

Coming out of the Empress Dowager's Palace of Compassion and Peace, Chu Qingyan was filled with excitement.

She had guessed it before, but today she really heard from the Queen Mother that her brother was still alive, which was indescribably great news to her.

She did not leave the palace first, but returned to Changle Palace.

Zhiqi was basically in charge of sending and receiving messages in Chang'an. When she returned to Changle Palace, Zhiqi was obviously surprised and happy, but when Chu Qingyan gave her the order, she was also extremely excited.

"Prince, he... No, Second Prince, is he still alive?!"

The current prince is already the third prince Chu Qingyuan, the princess and the current prince are like brothers and sisters, they know how to play and dare not go beyond the rules.

Chu Qingyan smiled and nodded, her eyes were slightly moist, but she didn't forget to remind Zhiqi.

"This matter must be investigated secretly. It doesn't matter if it takes a long time. The news must not be leaked. I believe that my brother must be waiting for me."

"Yes! This subordinate must have lived up to his fate! Find the second prince as soon as possible, and let him reunite with the princess!"

Zhiqi agreed, but she already had a plan in her heart. The princess had never smiled so happily in so many years, and she must find the second prince as soon as possible.

……

On the other side, Chu Rao was full of grievances and hid in her Yaohua Palace.

She didn't understand how she was kicked out by the emperor's grandmother and reprimanded her for clearly going to sue Lin'an. She clearly heard that her grandmother was going to give her the Changle Palace...

snort!
"Rao'er, didn't you play with the ladies in the imperial garden, why are you nesting in the palace by yourself?"

"See the Empress."

The personal maid beside Chu Rao hurriedly got up when she saw the person coming, and respectfully greeted the current queen.

Wan Shuang walked in with the support of the palace servants. She was gorgeous and graceful, and she was dressed in a bright yellow phoenix robe.

When Chu Rao heard her mother's voice, she got up reluctantly, and pursed her mouth, "It's nothing, I just came back if I didn't want to play, why is the queen mother here?"

"I heard that you were wronged by your imperial grandmother. Ben Gong came over to see how you are sulking here."

Chu Rao heard a hint of ridicule, she snorted coquettishly, and muttered unconvinced: "Empress Mother, it's alright for the emperor's grandmother to favor Lin'an, why don't you come and laugh at me!"

She didn't understand, Chu Qingyan was better at martial arts than her, read more books than her, was more courageous than her, and looked better than her... that's all.

What is good about the rest of Chu Qingyan, and what is she not as good as her?
Why would my father only talk about her all day long, because they are all his daughters, yet my father only sees Chu Qingyan in his eyes!

There is also the elder brother of the crown prince, that is her own elder brother, the night pearl given by Yun Zhao, and the treasured sword given by the grassland, he sent them to Changle Palace without blinking an eye.

Even the emperor's grandmother...the emperor's grandmother always scolded her on weekdays, but she always talked about Lin'an's long life and Lin'an's shortcomings, and said that Chu Qingyan was the one who resembled her the most!
What about her?Where is she? !

The more she thought about it, the more angry she became, Chu Rao couldn't help but snorted coldly, and nestled back on her couch again, "I am biased, father, grandmother, and brother Prince, you are all biased!"

After listening to her complaint, Wan Shuang didn't have much emotional ups and downs, but the corners of her mouth slightly hooked.

She approached Chu Rao and sat down opposite her, with a calm expression and a cold tone.

"Are you partial? Then do you know why your father, your grandmother, and your elder brother are partial to her?"

Chu Rao pouted, and raised her face from her arms, "She just has better kung fu and a better mind. If I can also compete with swords when Wan Guo comes to envoy, then I will be famous..."

She was still unconvinced, Wan Shuang couldn't help laughing when she heard the words, but the smile in her eyes was not warm.

"I thought that with the crown prince around, you would have no worries for the rest of your life, but now it seems that I raised you so naively."

"What did the queen mother say? Am I wrong?"

Wan Shuang was not in a hurry to return to her, but took a sip of tea, and wiped her mouth with a handkerchief slowly.

"Let me ask you, are you as good as her swordsmanship?"

"...No." Isn't it just better skill.

"She promotes trade among countries and dares to be the first. Do you have her courage?"

"...Not at all." Let her be more courageous.

"There was chaos at the border, and her letter of reconciliation led to the reconciliation between the two countries. Do you have her strategy?"

"..."

Chu Rao couldn't listen to it any longer. In terms of kung fu, courage and strategy, she couldn't compare to Chu Qingyan in anything?But what the mother said seems to be right.

Chu Qingyan seems to have done a lot of things...

Seeing that she must have listened, Wan Shuang raised her eyelids and said earnestly:

"Your father, the crown prince, brother, and even the emperor's grandmother all like her, and even General Xiahou, who has always had high-spirited eyes, also favors her, but I don't think it's partiality, Rao, you have to remember, the world likes the strong , the weak deserve only sympathy."

"If you want to get what you want, then what you want to become must be an out-and-out strong man."

After the words fell, Wan Shuang's tone was also a little cold.

Chu Rao raised her head, seeing the frost in the eyes of the queen mother, she felt a little strange.

……

After explaining the matter, Chu Qingyan thought that she would return to the grassland soon, so she took a trip to General Xiahou's residence while it was still dark in the afternoon.

She didn't come here for an appointment, she also sincerely admired Dasheng's only female general.

He respectfully waited until the concierge had finished notifying her to lead her in, and the boy who led the way took her directly to the martial arts arena, and did not stay any longer.

At that time, Xia Houling was holding a long sword in his hand, and his figure was flying around in the martial arts arena.

Before Chu Qingyan could figure out how to meet General Xiahou, the other party stabbed at her with a long sword!

"General!"

Chu Qingyan screamed out in shock, but the other party had no intention of stopping at all, until they forced her onto the stage, Chu Qingyan had no choice but to counterattack!

How long has she been away from Chang'an? What's wrong with the people in Chang'an City? Every one of them saw her with guns or swords? !
"Are you so distracted against the enemy on the battlefield?!"

Xiahou spoke sharply, Chu Qingyan was reminded by her not to be distracted any longer, and when she raised her hand, she cut her hair out of her sheath, fighting like a swimming dragon between a pair of silver-white long swords.

Xia Houling was a little annoyed, she remembered that Chu Qingyan was very good at swordsmanship, so she didn't take out her sword to fight her this time, but did she look down on her?
But soon, she dismissed this idea...

Chu Qingyan used a strange silk thread with a sharp blade to beat her so hard that she couldn't resist. She admitted that she had no right, but——

The two are enemies, even if they are equal!
Is this girl good at using a whip?
