Harem: Luo Chen's Resentment

C174 Euphorbia macrophylla

That night, the Emperor came to Fenghua Hall to see Prince Xian and noticed the gentle concubine You. He fell in love with her and brought her back to the Supreme Harmony Hall. On the second day, concubine You rode on the emperor's Step and was sent back to the palace. An endless stream of rewards followed him into the Fenghua Hall.

"Grandma, have you asked around?" The Ya Fei asked hurriedly. How could the emperor favor a girl who had just entered the palace?

"Empress, this old servant did not learn that the Imperial Concubine's protection is too tight, that not even a fly can enter. However, I heard from the person on night duty last night that concubine You is truly a peerless beauty. "

Hmph, which woman in the palace isn't an absolute beauty? Which one of the empress and Imperial Concubine aren't stunning beauties? The Emperor actually personally sent her back to her chambers, along with so many rewards. She had to clearly understand just what ability this woman possessed. He rushed to Fenghua Hall with a present. Shouldn't she congratulate the new sister who had gained her favour?

When they arrived at Fenghua Hall, they heard the conversation of the two women and walked in. "Chenqie greets the empress, Imperial Concubine greets the empress." They hadn't thought that it would be the empress. She secretly thought that she didn't notice that the 'Empress' in her eyes was sitting on a lower seat.

"Elder sister, please get up. I'm not the empress, I'm concubine You …" The woman walked down weakly and helped Ya Fei up.

Ya Fei was still confused when she was helped to her seat. Why did concubine You look exactly like the Empress? However, the empress's aura was cold and cheerless. This concubine You gave off an aura that would cause one to feel tender affection. Due to face, she tried to coax him a little. After all, she was the one who made him cry, but she hated him a lot in her heart. She's not a man, so don't pretend to be weak in front of her.

Today, Ya Fei came to inquire about news, and once she received it, she will return first. All along the way, she'd been thinking that the empress was resting right now, and no one around her dared to gossip. If that was the case, then she probably didn't know there was someone so similar to her in the palace. She would help her and send someone to the Middle Palace to spread the news.

Yet, Luo Chen, who should be in Middle Palace at this time, went to the market. She was dragged out by the Uncle Mo. Wenren Yueze had left her, but left her to recuperate. Uncle Mo was also a person who could not stay idle. Every day, he would ask about the Eastern Family's short life and tell Luo Chen about them.

At night, the lamp mountain was completely lit up. Golden lights intertwined and reflected the brilliance of the embroidery. The streets were occupied by hawkers, all of them smiling and shouting to attract customers. The ones with the best business were the ones who bought lanterns. Flying monkeys, underground mice, and even little white rabbits existed. All of them were lively and made a group of children run with them.

The majority of the spectators were there to guess the riddle. It seemed to have been set up by the Yangcheng County Order, and it only required ten coins to participate. Every 5 that one guessed correctly would receive a reward. The more prizes one guessed, the richer the reward would be. Furthermore, according to the information gathered from the Uncle Mo, the county magistrate had the intention of choosing a son-in-law for the competition! Once he entered the eyes of the county magistrate's daughter, he would be like a carp leaping over a dragon gate and soaring into the sky.

Luo Chen also followed over, causing a small commotion among the crowd, as they all looked at him. Uncle Mo facepalmed. If he knew earlier, he would not let her wear men's clothes. She immediately stood there dressed in men's clothes. Luo Chen disagreed, she was still very confident in her own looks, and when she saw those young ladies, she immediately started to rage, causing them to blush. However, she was laughing out loud, which made people secretly sigh. She was indeed an elegant and unrestrained man!

"Bite off the cow's tail with one bite …" Luo Chen looked towards the crowd that were guessing at the riddle when she heard sounds of thought. A man in a long white robe holding a scholar's fan looked like he belonged to a noble family. There were quite a number of people surrounding him. It was likely that one of the best among them was deep in thought. This caused her to sneer. Holding a fan in the middle of winter, was this person stupid?

"Why are you laughing? Do you know the answer to the riddle? " The man angrily walked in front of Luo Chen. There were still a few lanterns left, with just a guess, he could take away all the prizes. Who knew that at this point, he wouldn't be able to guess. Just as he was angry, he suddenly heard someone sneering at him. The man did not expect this person to be even prettier than him, just that he was slightly shorter. The man secretly sized Luo Chen up, the expression on his face was even more impressive, so what if he was good-looking, he was not taller than.

Who knew that Luo Chen would ignore him, she turned and was about to leave, but in her anxiousness she pulled on him, "Aiyo, old man, how can you beat someone up!" No one at home dared to touch him, yet today she was beaten up by the old man. She ordered the people behind him to surround them and not let them escape. She fiercely said: "To actually hit your young master, quickly apologize. Otherwise, I definitely won't let you leave."

Uncle Mo laughed shamelessly, but today, he actually met someone even more shameless than him. He was elated, "Brat, when I was travelling, were you still floating in the sky? "Haha …" Wasn't floating in the air meant that it didn't exist? People started to laugh along with the words that were commonly used by the commoners to harm people.

"You, you …" The man was so angry that his face turned red, and he was so angry that he couldn't speak. Everyone in his family had told him not to curse, much less to beat someone up. Right now, there was not a single word of scolding in his head. Seeing Luo Chen who was standing at the side calmly, he acted like a bully and pretended to be fierce: "If you can guess the answer to the riddle, I'll let you guys go!"

Luo Chen's eyes turned and she already had the answer, "Announce!"

Right, it was precisely that word. It was so simple, they didn't even guess it at all. "Clap, clap …" They all applauded.

With the matter resolved, Luo Chen and Uncle Mo were about to leave when they were invited to one side by the county magistrate. The commoners smiled brightly. The young master had probably been chosen by the magistrate.

The young noble, who had just lost, looked at the expressions of the surrounding people and did not understand what had happened. How could that person be invited to leave and still be unable to seek revenge! His retainer quickly told him what he had heard. He was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. He had almost been recruited …

Son-in-law. If that person hadn't interrupted him, he would have gotten married today. Thinking about how his father was being scolded by his mother all day, he decided to give up.

However, he did not leave, but waited at the side for Luo Chen to come out. He had to properly thank Luo Chen, if not for the fact that he was about to have a wife herself, his aunt in the palace would definitely scold him to death.

After a while, Luo Chen brought Uncle Mo out. When she entered, he saw the county magistrate's daughter who was blushing red, and realized that she had caused a ruckus. She could only apologize and prove that she was a girl. Although the magistrate was sad, he didn't make things difficult for them.
