Long Live the Empress
Chapter 23: New Year's Eve
What horrified Yue Hanwen was that after the Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince came to visit, the Ninth Prince also came to the Prime Minister's Residence...
Fourteen eunuchs in flying fish costumes carried a golden sedan chair into the Prime Minister's Mansion. On the sedan chair sat Yan Liyuan, who was wearing a crimson-purple robe with gold thread, and behind him followed several black-armored soldiers.
Yue Jinghao had seen this kind of scene countless times in her previous life, but she couldn't help but marvel at it every time. This was almost as good as the emperor's trip...
Yue Hanwen trembled as he saluted, unable to speak clearly. The rest of the female family members were even more afraid to raise their heads, and they were all silent and held their breath.
Yan Liyuan glanced at the little thing kneeling quietly in the corner, "I heard that the Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince came to visit the Prime Minister's Mansion, so I also want to take a look at what is so special about this Prime Minister's Mansion..."
Yue Hanwen wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "Your Highness, it is because my second daughter knows the secret method of growing porcelain roses that the Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince came to the palace to learn a thing or two..."
"Oh?" Yan Liyuan seemed to be interested as well, "Who is the second young lady?"
Yue Jinghong saluted Yan Liyuan with the most perfect gesture, and her voice like a yellow warbler floated into everyone's ears, "Your servant, Yue Jinghong, the second daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, greets you, the Nine Thousand Year Old~"
"Yue Jinghong... Jinghong..."
Yue Jinghong saw Yan Liyuan calling her name softly, so she looked at him boldly. At that moment, she even forgot to react. Is there a man like him in this world? He is a hundred times more handsome than any other man she has ever seen...
It was not until Aunt Su pulled Yue Jinghong's clothes that she came back to her senses and showed her most perfect expression on her face.
"As graceful as a startled swan and as elegant as a swimming dragon?" Yan Liyuan glanced at Yue Jinghong and snorted with disdain when he saw her youthful look.
"Yes~" Yue Jinghong thought Yan Liyuan wanted to praise her beauty, so she looked at Yue Jinghao proudly. Humph, so what if she is a legitimate daughter? She is still her foil!
"Tsk... She's just a concubine who wants to seduce others with her beauty. How can she be called Jinghong?!"
Yue Jinghao listened to Yan Liyuan's usual sharp tongue and almost stood up to applaud him! She secretly looked at Yue Jinghong. Sure enough, Yue Jinghong's face turned pale. It was probably the first time for her to be belittled like this... Hahaha!
Yue Hanwen's face also froze. Jinghong was his most satisfied daughter. If this news got out, Jinghong would be ruined. Who would marry a woman who was belittled by the Ninth Prince himself?
Just as everyone was thinking about their own little things, Yan Liyuan looked at Yue Jinghao who was daydreaming, "The name of the little thing is better, Jinghao... Years are quiet and good... Prime Minister Yue, don't you think so?"
Ahem... Yue Jing almost choked to death on her own saliva! What did Yan Liyuan want to do? He actually called her a little thing in front of everyone? Although what he said was a compliment to her, why did she feel uncomfortable?
Yue Jinghao was not the only one who was shocked. The other people in Yue Mansion reacted even more strongly!
Yue Hanwen dared not say no, "Yes, what the Ninth Thousand Year Old Man said is absolutely right. Jinghao, this name was given by my late wife..."
"As expected, a wife is a wife, and she is not comparable to those seductive concubines! Look at the daughters born. A legitimate daughter is dignified and polite, while a concubine's daughter only thinks about how to seduce others with her beauty..."
These words were extremely unpleasant to hear. Although Aunt Su was angry, she didn't even dare to raise her head and had to endure it. Yue Jinghong already had a fever due to falling into the water yesterday, and today she had kneeled for so long because she heard that the Nine Thousand Year Old Man was coming. But when she heard this, Yue Jinghong could no longer hold on and fainted on the ground.
But no one dared to help her, leaving her lying on the cold bluestone bricks.
"Well, the second young lady is ugly and in poor health! Prime Minister Yue, you can't treat your other daughters badly just because you feel sorry for her..." Yan Liyuan stroked the jade ring and glanced at Yue Hanwen. The warning in his words made him feel cold...
"Since we are here, little one, you will be responsible for leading the way and taking me around the Prime Minister's Mansion..."
