Princess of the auxiliary country

Chapter 40; Unable to stand a chance

Emperor Zhaowu came angrily, then threw himself to the ground and walked away.

Sure enough, ginger is still old and spicy.

It can make up for the grievances of Huo Junyao, a junior, without causing shock in the court, which is very good.

After returning to the imperial study, Emperor Zhaowu pondered for a moment and then asked Gao Fu to draft the edict.

He still planned to reward the princess position mentioned earlier. After all, the reward given by the Supreme Emperor was a secret reward that was not known to outsiders.

If he is so indifferent, what do people outside think of him as an emperor?

His own son did such a thing, and he, the father, didn't show any sign of it at all. In the future, the prestige of the imperial power will probably drop a lot.

Soon, Gao Fu personally took the imperial edict to the residence of Princess Ningyang.

"The second daughter of the Duke of Ji, Huo Jing, is given the title of Princess Huo Junyao. She is given the title of Zhaode."

"Five hundred households in the city, plus an imperial mansion."

When they heard about this title, the three people in Duke Ji's Mansion were overjoyed. Princess Ningyang quickly thanked her for accepting the imperial edict.

I was very happy in my heart. I originally wanted to exchange my position as princess for another favor. Although I didn't get Shang Fang's sword or the stick, it was good to get a gold medal to avoid death.

Unexpectedly, the emperor actually sent him the position of princess, and the title was still Zhaode.

Today's emperor's title is Zhaowu, while her daughter's title is Zhaode. The difference is only one character, which shows the favor of the emperor.

Huo Jingzhi and Huo Jinyan beside them were also very happy. Not only were they awarded the title of princess, this title was extremely noble, even more noble than the titles of the princesses under the emperor's knees.

Huo Jingzhi quickly took out the reward money he had prepared in advance and gave it to Gao Fu. He also very politely invited Gao Fu into the hall to drink tea.

"Thank you to the eldest princess and Duke Ji for the reward. I have to go back to recover, so I won't drink this tea."

Huo Jingzhi agreed with a smile, and then personally escorted Gao Fu to the door.

"Mom, you are so amazing. Not only did you get rewards from the Supreme Emperor, you actually didn't lose your position as princess."

Just after returning to the house, Princess Ningyang told the whole story in detail.

The gold medal for immunity from death and the edict of the Supreme Emperor were also brought out. Huo Jingzhi and Huo Jinyan were very happy. They did not feel that exchanging the title of princess for these two things was a loss. On the contrary, they felt that they were making a lot of money.

Think about the nobles of the Yu Dynasty, but no one has ever received such a grace as the gold medal for immunity from death. This is the only one in the Yu Dynasty at present, and it is also a good thing that can really save lives.

Although the position of a princess is a big improvement in status, their family is both the Duke and the eldest princess, but they already have a princess. They don't care about one more. It is more practical to have a gold medal to avoid death. .

But I never thought that the emperor would actually send him the title of princess.

"That's right, but your uncle is pretty good too."

Not only is it good, it’s a huge profit.

The news of the imperial edict's reward spread quickly in the capital, and those who didn't know the situation frowned after hearing it.

I feel that such a reward from the emperor is really inappropriate. How can a person with such poor moral character and lack of shame be qualified to sit on the position of princess, and the title is still Zhaode?

Of course, it's not like there aren't smart people. From this account, you can get a glimpse of something, and you also have some doubts about what was said in the rumors a few days ago.

As for the noble ministers, they all knew this very well and knew that this was compensation given by the emperor.

Thinking about Huo Junyao's current reputation outside the country, they didn't have much envy for this reward.

However, some people are envious and jealous.This person was Zhao Yan'er, the eldest daughter of Duke Cao's residence. After being turned away that day, she returned to Duke Cao's residence in despair. She originally wanted to find her father to admit her mistake and explain it to her.

But Cao Guogong did not see her, and even ordered her to be grounded and not allowed to leave the Duke's mansion again.

She also knew what happened this time and that she had done something wrong. After all, when she was rejected by Duke Ji's mansion and didn't know where to go, she still felt a little bit of regret in her heart.

But this person is afraid of thinking too much. After she was not grounded, she thought about these things all day long.

As I thought about it, I started to get a bit carried away, and the more I thought about it, the angrier I became.

In her opinion, Huo Junyao is just a wild girl from the countryside. In the past ten years or so, she has been by the side of Princess Ningyang. How much comfort has she given to Princess Ningyang?

She had only been back for more than a month and she had taken away all the love from Princess Ningyang?
Not only that, but he also wants to rob the person he likes?
She was just protecting her own things, what's wrong with that?

Even if Duke Ji's mansion treated her like this, why did his father think she was wrong?

Why don't you think about her?Why didn't you see her grievance?

Many reasons and reluctance filled her heart, and slowly these things turned into overwhelming hatred.

She hated the ruthlessness of Duke Ji's palace, and hated her father for being unfair to her. She even hated Huo Junyao who robbed her of everything when he came back.

"From today on, you and I are at odds with each other."

Zhao Yaner's eyes were filled with hatred, and she gritted her teeth and swore an oath. Her cold voice made the temperature of the whole room drop a lot.

Also angry was the Prince of the East Palace.

Although, Queen Shen had secretly asked someone to come over and relay to him exactly what Emperor Zhaowu said that day.

He also deeply realized that he had not considered this matter well.

Note that he just felt that he didn't think well, that is to say, he didn't feel that what he did was wrong, it was just that the method was not clever enough, which caused a lot of trouble for himself.

In other words, if he had to do it again, he would still choose this way, but all the methods would be smarter.

"I was careless this time, but it's not over yet."

Because he was a village girl, he was punished so severely by his father. The two bastards King Qi and King Chu didn't know how to laugh at her secretly.

As long as he thought about being embarrassed in front of these two guys, he would get angry and find it difficult to calm down.

And he had to blame all of this on Huo Junyao, a village girl.

However, after this incident, he also deeply realized that he should not act recklessly. If he does something in the future, he needs to think more carefully and seize the opportunity. It must not be like this time again.

Speaking of which, the reason why his plan was so rough this time was because the incident happened suddenly. Once the marriage decree was issued, it would be very difficult to overturn it, so there was no time to think more about it.

"Come on."

Guo Fang opened the door and came in.

"What orders does Your Highness have?"

"Let someone secretly go to Cao Guogong's mansion and tell sister Yan'er that since the matter has reached this point, we can never back down."

"Now that the rumors outside have become true, she must persuade Duke Cao to facilitate the matter between her and Gu."

After paying such a heavy price, if the goal is not achieved, wouldn't it be a big loss?
