Chapter 253 Encouraging My Mother to Pursue True Love 5
Shufei's ambitions were forced to end the moment she stepped over the threshold.
The imperial concubine was sitting in the garden, and all the concubines with famous names in the harem were there. They all seemed to be sitting together drinking tea and appreciating flowers, but their eyes were all glancing in the direction of Liu Huan'er.
"Shufei, oh no, look at my memory. Yesterday, the emperor demoted Sister Liu to Xiurong. The title of Shufei can no longer be used."
The imperial concubine pinched a white lotus and peeled off the petals one by one.
Liu Huan'er pursed her lips, walked around them without saying a word and was about to go out.
"presumptuous!"
One of the concubines immediately shouted angrily: "A mere grooming lady, yet she doesn't even show any respect when she sees the Imperial Concubine. What a big deal!"
Liu Huan'er still stood straight, until two palace maids came over to hold her down, then she knelt and saluted, saying: "Greetings, Imperial Concubine."
Her nails broke on her palms, and she engraved the expressions of the concubines present in her mind.
The imperial concubine sneered, "Look, Lin Xiurong is not convinced."
Liu Huan'er was startled. The big and strong nanny was already walking towards her with a sullen face...
After Ji Yanli left the court, he did not see anyone who was annoying outside the Panlong Palace, so he realized that the imperial concubine had done a good job.
There are so many palaces in the harem, why did he let Liu Huan'er live in the imperial concubine's Guanju Palace?
An old rival.
Liu Huan'er and Ji Qiancheng calmed down completely. Ji Qiancheng no longer ran out of the palace every day. The original owner was willing to indulge her, but Ji Yanli was unwilling to go, and the imperial concubine who was the master of the palace was also unwilling.
She could only wait to get married obediently.
It was not until the day of the wedding that the imperial concubine showed mercy and did not torture Liu Huan'er. She applied thick powder on her face, but even with her delicate makeup, she could not hide her haggard look.
The fifth prince was also released temporarily.
Ji Qiancheng and the virtuous king came over in red wedding attire to express their gratitude.
Almost as soon as he entered the hall, the virtuous king's gaze turned uncontrollably towards Liu Huan'er. Seeing her haggard and red eyes looking at him, the virtuous king felt a pain in his heart.
Ji Qiancheng blocked the virtuous king's gaze without leaving any trace.
Ji Yanli noticed their interaction and found it funny. In the original plot, Ji Qiancheng was the great assist in the relationship between Liu Huan'er and the Xian King, and even felt that the existence of her original body was an eyesore. This time, she became the biggest obstacle between Liu Huan'er and the Xian King. Ji Yanli wanted to see what she would do.
"Alright, Xiurong and I both know about your feelings for each other, and we'll help you. After you get married, please come visit Xiurong whenever you have time. I'm busy, so if you can avoid appearing in front of me, please do so."
Ji Yanli said a few words casually and signaled them to leave the palace. The ceremonies in the palace were almost over, and the next step was to go to Prince Xian's Mansion to get married.
Ji Qiancheng tripped on the blanket, whether intentionally or unintentionally. Facing Ji Yanli's sharp gaze, the wise king could only reach out to support her.
Ji Qiancheng took the opportunity to hold his hand tightly.
Behind them, Liu Huan'er stared at their clasped hands, covering her eyes and sobbing.
"Xiu Rong loves his daughter dearly. Don't worry, if the virtuous prince dares to treat Cheng'er badly, I will not let him go, not to mention you."
Seeing this, Ji Yanli kindly comforted Liu Huaner. Perhaps because she was too moved, Liu Huaner cried even louder.
Ji Qiancheng had made up her mind these days. Since she could not change her fate of marrying the virtuous king, she could only accept the reality. Fortunately, she had read some basic books on how to control a husband before traveling through time, so she didn't believe that she couldn't win over a mere ancient man.
Unlike finding true love at the beginning, this time she wants to personally polish a perfect husband who matches her in every aspect.
Not bad.
Ji Qiancheng tightened his grip on the virtuous king's hand, not noticing the disgust in the virtuous king's eyes.
When they arrived at Prince Xian's mansion, Prince Xian couldn't wait to shake off Ji Qiancheng's hand as if he was throwing away something dirty.
Ji Qiancheng didn't care either.
What a bastard, he ignores her now, but when he falls in love with her later, I will make sure he gets into a funeral procession after chasing his wife.
Ji Qiancheng's good mood lasted until the wedding ceremony. The servants of Prince Xian's Mansion brought a rooster over. There was a red silk hanging around the rooster's neck, its feathers were colorful, and its comb was as red as blood, which looked very majestic.
Ji Qiancheng was wearing a veil. She only realized something was wrong when she heard people around her covering their mouths and laughing. She lifted the veil and was met with a pair of bright eyes.
"Giggle cluck."
"what!"
Ji Qiancheng took a few steps back, pointing at the rooster, his face flushed with anger: "What does this mean? Where is the prince?"
The guests covered their mouths and laughed secretly, and the servants exchanged glances without saying anything. Ji Qiancheng's face turned from red to blue, and she threw the veil to the ground and strode out.
She knew where the wise king was.
There was also such a passage in the book, in which the emperor granted marriage to the virtuous prince and the daughter of the Minister of Works. The virtuous prince accepted the order obediently on the surface, but on the wedding day he found a rooster to perform weddings for him.
The young lady could not bear such a great humiliation and committed suicide by jumping into a well that night. When the news reached the palace, the emperor was furious. He severely reprimanded the wise king and took away his throne.
When Ji Qiancheng was reading the book, he was just speaking up for the virtuous king. He was deeply in love with his beloved and didn't want to marry another woman, so he had no choice but to resort to this last resort. Of course, he couldn't understand the emperor, who was a promiscuous man with three harems and six courtyards.
But now she is the one being insulted, and Ji Qiancheng just wants to kill the virtuous king to vent her anger!
The book says that on the day of the wedding, the wise king stayed in the study until dawn.
Ji Qiancheng angrily waved away the servants who were blocking his way and kicked open the study door.
"what!"
The disheveled maidservant, who was sitting on the virtuous king, screamed and hid in the virtuous king's arms.
The virtuous king said to Ji Qiancheng in disgust: "Get out!"
Ji Qiancheng was almost going crazy.
She walked forward and pulled the maid regardless of anything.
"Get down! Get down right now!"
But the maidservant held the virtuous king tightly and refused to let go.
"It's you who should get out!"
The virtuous king kicked Ji Qiancheng in the stomach and said, "If you don't want to be respectable, I can send you back to the palace right now."
"Decent?" Ji Qiancheng covered her stomach and coughed twice, and then the servants who came out of the palace hurriedly helped her up.
"Ahem, respectability. Letting a palace maid bow to heaven and earth with this princess is the respectability you are giving me?"
The virtuous prince put on his clothes slowly and leisurely, and the other two maids in the virtuous prince's mansion came forward to wash his hands. Their movements were natural and smooth, as if they had done this thousands of times.
"I allowed you to marry into the Xianwang Mansion as you wished, didn't I? Now that you've become the Xianwang Consort and have gotten what you wanted, don't ask for too much. You should know better than anyone who is in my heart."
Ji Qiancheng bit his cheek and angrily pointed at the maid who had an affair with him: "You have someone in your heart, so why are you still messing around with such a cheap thing? Is this your true heart and your deep love?"
The virtuous king was even more puzzled than she was: "I have someone in my heart, what does it have to do with my reckless behavior? My heart is dead, but my body is still alive. Not to mention this one, even if I find a hundred more, no one will care!"
