Back to the marriage proposal, helping the incompetent husband to rise to the top

Chapter 46 Liang's Daughter
Emperor Fengyang paused as he looked at the memorial and said, "Very good."

Ye Wanqing said "yes".

Emperor Fengyang continued to read the memorials.

About an incense stick of time passed before he looked up from the table and pressed his temples tiredly.

Looking up, I saw someone standing behind the bead curtain.

He rubbed his brows and said, "I am busy with government affairs and have no time to take care of you. It is almost dark. You should go back to Tingxue Pavilion."

Ye Wanqing knelt down and said, "My dear, I'll take my leave."

"Wait." Emperor Fengyang called her and then told Eunuch Su who was waiting outside the palace, "Give Qing'er two of the pomegranates that Jindu has just delivered today."

Eunuch Su hurried to get it.

Soon, two big red pomegranates were placed in Ye Wanqing's arms.

Emperor Fengyang said, "Go back."

After expressing her gratitude, Ye Wanqing returned to Tingxue Pavilion with the pomegranates. She gave one to her parents and kept one for herself.

……

the next day.

Autumn hunting has officially begun.

After yesterday's ceremony, participants in the autumn hunt had drawn lots and were divided into teams.

The first day of autumn hunting is a warm-up exercise, horse racing.

The women were on the right stand, and the men were on the left stand.

Ye Wanqing brought Liao Fuyu with her and walked quietly along the way to find the reserved seat.

On the field, dozens of horses were lined up in an orderly manner.

The early autumn sun shines on the dewy grassland, like golden pieces of gold scattered all over the ground.

The young gentlemen were wearing tight clothes of different colors, standing facing the morning sun, with their hair tied up high, broad shoulders and narrow waists. Just looking at them for a few more seconds would make one blush and their heart beat faster.

Ye Wanqing was watching when she suddenly heard a female voice in the distance: "The one with the high ponytail, is that Chu Anlan?"

A woman laughed quietly, "Look at his smug look, he probably still doesn't know about Ye Wanqing and Lu Shizi's secret meeting in the mountains, right?"

"Today, let's just wait and see the show..."

"Hahaha--"

Hearing the discussion, Liao Fuyu started to lift her sleeves and said, "Look at the way you talk bad about others behind their backs. You must be a gossip, right? Why don't you take it out and let everyone admire it?"

The noble ladies gathered together looked up.

When they saw Ye Wanqing, they were so frightened that they were speechless.

Someone whispered something, and the ladies stood up and saluted: "Greetings, Princess..."

Ye Wanqing glanced at them calmly and said, "No need to be polite."

Liao Fuyu glared at the ladies and said, "If you keep talking nonsense, I will expose you in front of the emperor! Then, let's see who will laugh."

A lady in pink stood up in shame and anger: "You are from the Northern Frontier, so don't talk nonsense and ruin the reputation of our noble ladies in Jindu for no reason."

From northern Xinjiang?

"What's wrong with the guy from Northern Xinjiang?" Liao Fuyu asked with wide eyes.

Another noble lady in purple said, "Ms. Liao, don't be angry. Qing Yuan meant that Miss Liao has just arrived in Jindu and is not used to the rules of Jindu. We noble ladies from aristocratic families should live in harmony and not make fun of ourselves."

After saying that, she looked at Ye Wanqing: "Princess, what do you think?"

Ye Wanqing asked calmly, "If I remember correctly, you are the cousin of the Crown Princess? The daughter of Liang?"

"That's right." The purple-robed noble lady responded, "My father and the Crown Princess's father are brothers from the same mother. Princess, you can call me Yurou."

Liang Yurou?
Ye Wanqing's eyes fell on Liang Yurou's earlobes, and she couldn't help asking, "When the Crown Prince first saw the Crown Princess's portrait, he saw that she had two ear holes on her earlobes, so he gave her a pair of phoenix-shaped earrings, which became a legend. The Crown Princess has fair skin, and the Crown Prince once praised her for looking good in purple. Is it a tradition for Liang's daughters to have two ear holes and wear purple clothes?"

Liang Yurou's face gradually lost color, and she smiled reluctantly: "We are all daughters of the Liang family. The sisters saw that the eldest sister looked good with her ears and eyes, so they followed her example..."

"I see." Ye Wanqing nodded, and then her expression became calmer: "Fu Yu is the daughter of the Marquis of Jingbei. She has been stationed in the northern border with her father since she was young. She, like her father, is a hero of the Western Wei Dynasty. Without the 200,000 Jingbei troops under their command, it is not certain whether you will have the opportunity to sit here.

Since you claim to be noble ladies from the capital, you should think twice before speaking. Don't let heroes and their children feel cold, and don't bring disaster to your family because of your quick words. "

After hearing this, the ladies were speechless and felt a chill run down their backs.

Ye Wanqing took Liao Fuyu's hand and said, "Let's go. Don't keep your mother waiting for too long." Liao Fuyu curled her lips at the noble ladies.

The two of them hadn't walked a few steps when they heard a quarrel behind them.

"Liang Yurou, the Crown Princess is seriously ill, but you are thinking of imitating her and wanting to replace her and become the new Crown Princess?"

"Look at you, why did you provoke Liao Fuyu for no reason? Don't you know that the princess and the county lady are backing her up?"

"You were the ones who were jealous of the princess. You first said that she and Master Lu had a tryst in the mountains."

"..."

Liao Fuyu couldn't stand it any longer: "Qing'er, I don't want to endure it anymore!"

Ye Wanqing sighed: "Then I can't bear it. I support you. Go ahead, scold them until they cry, or make them cry with anger."

Liao Fuyu was a little surprised: "You won't stop me?"

"Can I stop it?" Ye Wanqing asked back.

"I..." Liao Fuyu's high spirits suddenly deflated: "I'd better bear with it. Arguing with such a person will only dirty my mouth."

Ye Wanqing smiled and said, "The Marseille is about to start, let's walk faster."

The two of them walked arm in arm into Chu Yanrong's tent.

Chu Yanrong asked the two of them, "The Marseille has already started, why are you here just now?"

Ye Wanqing and Liao Fuyu looked at each other and said, "Reporting to mother, we just talked with the noble lady of the Liang family in the back."

Liang?

Chu Yanrong had some impression: "The Crown Princess's cousin? Liang Yurou?"

"That's right." Ye Wanqing nodded.

Chu Yanrong took a sip of tea and said, "The Crown Princess is seriously ill, and the Liang family participated in the autumn hunt in a high-profile manner, wearing red and green, and only left an elderly woman in Jindu... It's quite strange."

Ye Wanqing smiled faintly.

Liao Fuyu added: "Everyone knows what Sima Zhao is thinking."

Chu Yanrong looked at her with a smile: "Fuyu, it seems that you have studied well recently and have made great progress."

"Thank you for the compliment, Princess!" Liao Fuyu felt much better immediately after being praised.

On the racecourse.

The drums sounded and the game had begun.

At the command, dozens of horses rushed forward in a straight line, overcoming numerous obstacles and heading straight for the flag a hundred meters away.

The whole grassland was filled with flying dust.

The young men in bright clothes and riding horses whipped their horses in the autumn sun, running as much as they wanted, chasing and fighting wildly, and exchanging punches and kicks on horseback.

The blood was boiling on the field and there was cheering and applause from the audience.

Ye Wanqing's gaze always followed Chu Anlan.

Beside her, Liao Fuyu was even more excited than her——

"Chu Anlan was the first to grab the flag!"

"Ah! Chu Anlan's flag was taken away!"

"He got it back again!"

"..."

Ye Wanqing found it somewhat funny.

It was not until the end of the first horse race that Chu Anlan breathed a sigh of relief when he rode his horse back to the starting point, holding the flagpole in high spirits.

Next to the referee's stand, people for the second game gathered.

The referee has yet to announce the result of the first game.

At this time, many young men gathered around.

Someone seemed to turn around and say something to Chu Anlan. Chu Anlan's face changed drastically and he strode over.

Then, someone was heard shouting, "Stop! Stop it now!"
