A quick journey starting from Wu Dalang

Chapter 159: Being a Perfect Man in My Fair Princess (4)

Naturally, Xiaoyanzi's identity could not be the emperor's illegitimate daughter, which was really not nice. The emperor was also too embarrassed to admit his romantic affairs, so the gentle and considerate Concubine Ling came up with an idea.

"Your Majesty, why don't you say that the princess is your adopted daughter? Didn't the late emperor also adopt a daughter from the royal family as his daughter? Why don't you follow the late emperor's example?" Concubine Ling's words were so soft that they immediately floated into the emperor's heart.

"What you said makes sense," the emperor patted Concubine Ling's hand.

Concubine Ling's words could be considered a solution, but this was a big deal after all, and required the royal family and the court to know about it, and even the whole world needed to know about it, so naturally there had to be a foolproof plan.

The one who proposed a more perfect solution was Ji Xiaolan: "Your Majesty, I think in order to show that the Manchus and the Han are one family, Your Majesty can adopt a Han woman as a princess of our Qing Dynasty."

Ji Xiaolan saw that the emperor was somewhat tempted, and thinking of what his colleague said a few days ago, he continued: "Perhaps the emperor can also record a Han woman into the royal family, and marry her to the prince as a concubine in the future."

Ji Xiaolan certainly didn't know that Xiaoyanzi was the emperor's biological daughter. When he said this, he was thinking of a colleague who wanted to give his daughter to the emperor as an adopted daughter.

After all, compared to being sent as a marriage partner during the previous emperor's time, marrying a prince was undoubtedly a better option. The more Ji Xiaolan thought about it, the more it made sense.

"Your idea is a good one," the emperor affirmed. Of course, he did not want to marry his daughter to his son, but he thought it would be a good idea to use the name of the Manchu-Han family.

Xiaoyanzi became a princess in this confused way. She subconsciously felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't remember anything and couldn't tell what was wrong.

Xiaoyanzi was inexplicably given the title of a royal family daughter, and was canonized as Princess Heshu as the emperor's adopted daughter. This series of events were handled by Concubine Ling, and the empress was very angry at being ignored.

"As the queen, I should be the one doing this kind of thing. Why did the emperor let Concubine Ling take charge?"

"Your Majesty" Madam Rong looked at the sad queen and didn't know how to persuade her.

"I am the master of the harem, why do I need Concubine Ling to do anything?" The Queen slammed the table and said, "Have someone bring the princess here for me to see."

The Queen had no animosity towards Xiaoyanzi. She just wanted to use her to establish her authority. Unfortunately, she had obviously met a tough guy. Although Xiaoyanzi had lost her memory, some habits were engraved in her bones, and her naughty nature would not change.

The maid of the "Queen" knelt on the ground and said: "Princess Heshu's wound has not healed yet, so she cannot come to pay respects to the Queen."

"Injured?" The queen did not expect that the newly-appointed princess was still injured. She immediately imagined that Xiaoyanzi and Mulan had made an exception and were canonized as princesses for their meritorious service in rescuing the emperor in the hunting ground.

"This He Shu is a good one." The queen nodded to show her approval of Xiao Yanzi. The little palace maid was confused, but since she didn't have to be punished, she naturally left happily.

It was not until several days later that the Empress learned of Xiaoyanzi's sudden appearance and rushed all the way to the Yangxin Palace: "Your Majesty, I heard that you brought Heshu back from Mulan Paddock?"

"Yes." The emperor looked puzzled: "How come the queen only knew about this today?"

"Could it be that this woman saved the emperor in the enclosure and blocked the arrow for him?"

“That’s not true”

"So he performed meritorious service in the paddock?"

"No, Queen, what's wrong with you today?" The emperor felt that the Queen was puzzled.

"A woman who inexplicably appeared in the paddock, the emperor not only brought her into the harem, but also canonized her as a princess. Does the emperor really think there is nothing wrong with this?" The queen felt puzzled.

"If this woman is a bad person, and you brought her into the harem, where would you put the safety of the princes and concubines?"

The Queen's questions were so harsh that the Emperor couldn't help but get angry: "Queen, are you questioning me?"

"I dare not, but as the master of the harem, I naturally have to worry about the sisters in the harem and the royal heir. Your Majesty's move is too impulsive, and I cannot agree with it."

The emperor has always been like this, so he would not be angry about this matter. What's more, what the queen said made sense, and the emperor believed that he was not a petty father.

"This woman did not appear out of nowhere, but came all the way to the capital to find her father, and the father she was looking for was me," the emperor said with some pride.

The queen was speechless for a moment, and then she gave a few more words of advice as usual, saying nothing more than that the emperor was a playboy, which successfully angered the emperor and she was scolded.

At the same time, Ziwei, the emperor's real daughter, was still raising children in the slum.

"Miss, Miss Xiaoyanzi has gone and never returned. Could something have happened to her?"

"No way. Although her martial arts skills are average, her Qinggong skills are pretty good. Besides, the animals in the enclosure should have been handled well. They won't hurt her."

"But the emperor and the prince are there. Xiaoyanzi might be captured as an assassin. Even worse, could she be accidentally killed as a prey?" The more Yinhuan spoke, the more scared Jinsuo became.

"Look at you, you're scared by Jinsuo." Ziwei tapped Yinhuan's head, and Yinhuan stuck out her tongue mischievously.

The three were having fun when Liu Qing brought bad news: "The emperor has adopted a daughter and has announced it to the world. He is also taking the princess to Mount Tai for sacrifice."

"How could this happen?" Ziwei looked broken-hearted. Could it be that Xiaoyanzi was robbed and her things were lost? Otherwise, how could an inexplicable princess appear and Xiaoyanzi disappear?

"Miss, could this princess be Xiaoyanzi?" Jinsuo guessed boldly.

"No," Ziwei said firmly, "Although we have known Xiaoyanzi for a short time, she is definitely not such a person."

In order to find out the truth, the three decided that they must sneak in and take a look to see whether this princess was Xiaoyanzi and what had happened to the other party.

Shi Yi was also arranging a meeting with the emperor in full swing. It had to be thrilling so that the emperor would suddenly take notice of the two children he hadn't seen for many years. At the same time, the emperor had to be full of affection for Xia Yuhe.

Under Shiyi's arrangement, the emperor's journey to Mount Tai was full of crises, but the emperor knew nothing at this time. Going out to play under the name of a tour was one of the emperor's favorite things to do.

Ziwei and the other two naturally could not get close to the patrolling team, but a glance from a distance was enough for Ziwei to see Xiaoyanzi. She recognized her at first sight and was immediately shocked.

"How is this possible? Impossible. How could Xiaoyanzi lie to me? We have been through life and death together. We are good sisters." Ziwei's face was covered with injuries and she was bumped by a man in the team.

"Miss!" Yinhuan quickly supported Ziwei and glared at the guard who bumped into her: "Don't you have eyes?"
