Traveling through ancient times: living a different life

This morning, the maid in the palace reported that His Majesty had newly appointed a country girl as a princess. It was known that this was the goddess that people talked about in the streets and alleys. This girl was quite capable and helped the prince's father-in-law, Han Shaoqing, defeat Jingguo.

Although she was born in a humble family, she must be blessed. So I thought of finding such a blessed woman for the fourth grandson, Jiang Shaojue. Now that she has been conferred the title of princess, it would be appropriate for her to be a concubine.

"Rong'an, you two have only made a verbal marriage agreement. You haven't gotten engaged yet, let alone married. Do you think I can arrange a marriage for you?"

When everyone heard this, they thought the Queen Mother was playing tricks again. The Fifth Prince was extremely anxious. She knew that her grandmother liked Jiang Shaojue the best and that the Fourth Prince was sweet-talker and made her very happy.

Bi Yue saw that the old lady wanted to match her up with someone, so she refused and said, "The Queen Mother wants to arrange a marriage for me, but I already have someone in my heart, so..."

Before Bi Yue could finish her words, she was interrupted by the Queen Mother, "Rong An, my fourth grandson is of noble status and handsome. If you marry him, give birth to a child, and enjoy wealth and splendor forever, wouldn't that be good?"

The emperor was so anxious that he shouted, "Mother, what nonsense are you talking about? Rong'an is only 14 years old this year, not even years old yet, and you want her to marry the fourth prince, don't talk nonsense here."

The emperor was so angry that his veins popped out. The fifth prince was also very angry. The queen mother wanted Rong An, his beloved, to marry the married fourth prince and become a concubine. Wasn't this a waste of Yueyue?

The Queen saw how anxious the Emperor and Jiang Shaoxuan were, but as a royal daughter-in-law, she couldn't interrupt. If she said the wrong thing, she would earn the Queen Mother's resentment.

When the Crown Princess saw this situation, she was so angry that her heart ached. She wondered if the Queen Mother had taken the wrong medicine today and wanted to snatch her brother's wife. She knew that the Queen Mother usually doted on the Fourth Prince, but she couldn't look down on people like this. This was an insult to Rong An and it was so infuriating.

The Queen Mother was not happy at all when she saw that no one supported her and the Emperor was yelling at her. She stood up and said angrily, "The master of Leiyin Temple said that Jue'er must find a woman with great fortune to have a successor. You, as his father and his mother, are not in a hurry, but I, as his grandmother, am worried sick about him, and you still have this attitude. Humph!" Then she stood up and left, followed by the nanny and four palace maids.

The Queen and the Emperor were furious, but they still said politely, "We respectfully send our mother back to the palace."

The Queen said to Bi Yue, "Rong An, don't be angry with the Queen Mother. She loves her grandson very much. Maybe she sees that you are very lucky, so she wants to introduce you to her fourth prince."

Bi Yue looked at the Queen and the Emperor, feeling very awkward and embarrassed, so she tried to comfort them, "Your Majesty and Queen, don't worry. I have two bottles of medicine here. Give this bottle of medicine to the Fourth Prince, and good news will come out in less than half a year.

I can understand the Queen Mother's feelings. She probably hopes that her children and grandchildren will live well. Besides, the Fourth Prince has been childless and is anxious. She just said these words today. Rong An doesn't care, so don't take it to heart."

He took out two bottles of medicine from the locker and handed them to the queen. He then quietly looked at the alarm clock inside. It was already two o'clock in the afternoon. He then said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, Rong An sees that it is already 11:00 p.m. If there is nothing else, I would like to take my leave and go back."

"Okay, I'll let Xuan'er take you out of the palace!"

Since the emperor had spoken, Bi Yue could not refuse and could only let Jiang Shaoxuan send her out of the palace. Along the way, the fifth prince kept making excuses for the queen mother, "Yue Yue, I'm sorry, my grandmother is old and a little confused, and she spoke without thinking, please don't be angry."

"It's okay. I don't care about it anymore. Don't take it to heart."

"When will you move back to the Princess's Mansion?"

"I just received the award today, and I haven't had time to take a look. I'll go and see if I need to renovate it, and then decide."

"Well, I will come to congratulate you when you move in. I will be busy starting tomorrow with the three projects you handed over to our father. I have to go and select a site, build a factory, etc. I won't have time to visit you. Please take care of yourself. I will come to see you when I am free."

"Yeah, I see. It's good to be busy."

After leaving the palace, I saw a carriage parked outside. Luo Chen was standing outside the carriage and Xiaomai was sitting in the front of the carriage.

The two of them looked anxiously at the palace gate and saw Biyue coming out. Luo Chen trotted over and asked softly, "Is Yue'er okay in the palace? She's been gone for such a long time."

In order not to make Luo Chen worry, she picked up the conversation and said to him in a relaxed manner, "Nothing happened. I was just chatting with the Queen, the Crown Princess, the Eldest Princess, the Fourth Princess, and several other female relatives.

Later, the Emperor heard that I was in the Queen's Palace, so he came with the Crown Prince and the Fifth Prince.

Because the eldest princess has a physical illness, she only gave birth to a daughter after getting married, and she hasn't gotten pregnant again in all these years. I gave her some good pills, and I checked your sister's child. It's a weakness she brought from the womb, that's all, it's nothing."

"Oh, that's good, thank you so much, I heard from mother that Xiao Ling'er is not in good health.

The princess's mansion that was just awarded today is across the street from my home. It was originally the residence of an old prince, also with a large courtyard with five entrances. Somehow, it returned to the hands of the emperor. This mansion is 70% new.

After the court was dismissed, Chen Chen took Dongnanxixi and me to see it together. He said he would wait for you to come back and renovate it if you were not satisfied. "

"Then let's go take a look now. We have been in the palace for most of the day. It's still early. Let's go take a look at the house first and then decide whether to make any changes."

"Then I'll go with you."

The two got on the carriage, Xiaomai was driving in front, and they were talking in the carriage. Biyue asked him, "How was your investigation at the Ministry of Personnel this morning?"

"I just arrived at the Ministry of Personnel and found the official in charge of documents. I just started talking and before I could check, the eunuch sent by the emperor came to me and told me to go to the palace to receive the title. Then he left the palace. It seems that I have to go again tomorrow."

"You don't have to be too anxious. Check it out after you're done with these few days. You've already waited for 10 or 20 years, so these two days won't make a difference."

"Okay, I'll listen to Yue'er, but if there's nothing important tomorrow, I still have to check this matter out, otherwise it'll be really uncomfortable if I keep it in my heart."

"After visiting the Princess's Mansion, I will go to the main street of the capital tomorrow to have a look. I plan to buy a large courtyard and convert it into an auction market, and build two storefronts outside."

"Why didn't you tell me about this? You don't have to spend money to buy them. My mother's dowry includes several large houses and many shops. The houses are empty now and no one lives in them. They often have to send maids and servants to clean them. I asked her to get you two houses and shops so you don't have to spend that money to buy them."

"How can you take your mother's dowry house for free? I have money on me."

"Yue'er, why are you being so polite to me? Ever since you rescued me from the sea, you have taken care of me for more than three years, cured my illness, taught me Kung Fu, and accompanied me to the border to help my father fight. Can two houses pay off all this? I owe you so much, and you divide it so clearly with me just for this little thing. I am really angry."

"Okay, I understand, I accept it."
