The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

Chapter 271: The Minister of Rites Recommends the Princess

But unexpectedly, someone brought a picture book in the afternoon, and I heard that it also cost several hundred taels.

"Mother, is this picture book really so interesting?"

Madam Zhang smiled respectfully and kindly, "Interesting, very interesting."

She didn't think much of it at first, but eventually she opened it out of curiosity and became more and more fascinated the more she read.

When Concubine Zhang heard her mother say this, she picked up some of the books and read them, which made her eyes light up.

"It's really interesting."

Madam Zhang was leaving in the next two hours, and Concubine Zhang couldn't wait to pick it up and read it.

Chapter 10 of "Princess's Journey" - Shooting flying birds with a slingshot.

The blue sky, white clouds and flying geese.

A group of people who were exhausted from the long journey took a rest on the spot.

In the hot summer, the girl wears a veil and holds a slingshot, and the wild geese fall.

The guards started boiling water in a pot, and soon geese were being roasted on iron sticks.

Add a little bit of fine salt, sprinkle a little bit of chili powder, wait for quarter of an hour, and then rush to grab it happily.

You use one leg, I use one wing, but the goose's butt flies up to the sky, and a wolf runs over and takes it in its mouth, and you are all shocked.

In less than a moment, the whole room burst into laughter.

Hu Zhan: What are you laughing at? Laugh until your teeth drop.

No one noticed its sorrow, Hu Zhan roared and howled like a wolf, as if it was crying.

Huzhan: Damn humans, all your teeth have fallen out.

Little Leo threw a goose butt at him, and Hu Zhan turned his head away proudly.

Hu Zhan: I don’t want to eat it, I don’t want to eat it, you all are annoying.

Little Leo was stunned: What's wrong with this wolf? Why isn't it eating yet?

He tore off one of Yan'er's legs and threw it over, and Huzhan jumped up and caught it.

After chewing a few times, Huzhan swallowed it in one gulp.

Little Li's mind and eyes were full of Yan'er. He was gnawing on Yan'er's foot. Hu Zhan bit off Yan'er's head in one bite, and Little Li was frightened.

"Hu, what are you doing? Why are you snatching food?" His Yan'er.

Huzhan rolled his eyes at him and continued to tear into the roasted goose.

When Leo saw that everyone had finished eating and he didn't even try a few bites, he felt aggrieved and shed tears.

Shundao County Government House

In the courtyard, Shen Jiarou was wielding the whip with ease, while Hu Zhan was playing around.

With one whip, a lot of leaves fell down.

Bao Zhiqing nodded: "Not bad, the force is getting stronger and stronger."

Mr. Li casually pulled out a bamboo stick and started sparring with his princess.

"Princess, I am here."

When someone was sparring with her, Shen Jiarou whipped her even faster.

"Brother Li, watch this."

One of them swung the whip while the other took it, and the more they fought, the braver they became.

But in the end, it ended because Shen Jiarou was too small and had too little strength.

Zhang Zirou and Zheng Shutong gave their princess a thumbs up, while Zhen Luosang and Yaer applauded.

Zheng Shutong smiled and said, "Princess, you are whipping faster and faster."

Shen Jiarou put away the whip and sat down at the stone table to rest.

"Brother Li, it seems that your Kung Fu has improved."

Mr. Li scratched his head and said, "Really? That's great."

He just wanted to become more powerful.

Yaer laughed softly when she heard that, and when Mr. Li looked over, his face turned even redder.

Beijing Tang Mansion

Since the princess left the capital, Emperor Wenzong of Tang felt that life had become boring again. Fortunately, he would occasionally receive letters, picture books and small gadgets from his daughter, which brought a little life to his ordinary days.

Under the moonlight, he sat on the stone table in the courtyard, drinking osmanthus wine and looking up at the moon. His back seemed a little lonely.

Li Leping was worried about his health: "Master, the nights are a little chilly in late autumn, so you must take care of yourself."

Emperor Wenzong of Tang withdrew his gaze and looked at his butler.

"Le Ping, how about having a couple of drinks with me?"

Li Leping thought for a moment and finally sat down.

Emperor Wenzong of Tang poured him a cup of osmanthus wine, then handed it to him and raised the wine in the cup.

"Come, let's have a drink."

Before I knew it, my butler has been by my side for more than half a year.

Think about it, time flies by so fast.

"Do you think the princess should go to Shundao County?"

Li Leping looked up and said, "Maybe."

The two drank together until 11 p.m.

Tang Wenzong slept well all night because he drank too much osmanthus wine, but was still woken up by Li Lesong.

"Master, wake up, it's time to get up and attend the court." Emperor Wenzong of Tang was still a little confused all the way until he got on the carriage.

In the Golden Palace, Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty was wearing a bright yellow majestic dragon robe and sitting on the dragon throne in a domineering manner.

"Replying to the letter from the envoy of Meng State, they said they would come to visit our dynasty. What do you think, my dear ministers, should be done to welcome them?" If Meng State came to visit this time, it would be of great benefit to the Yuan Dynasty.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was wearing a bright yellow four-clawed dragon robe, looked left and right and finally bowed.

"Father, I think our dynasty should give you a great reception to show our friendship."

I returned to Meng State because of my sister. We just reached a friendly truce with Yuan Dynasty. So we can be considered old friends.

After hearing what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said, all the ministers deeply agreed.

Prince Su cupped his hands and said, "I second your Highness's words."

Jiang He, the Minister of Rites, cupped his hands and said, "I second the motion."

Emperor Shundi of Yuan Dynasty looked at his ministers and asked, "Who do you think should be the welcoming guest?"

The Minister of Rites cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I do have a suggestion."

Emperor Shundi of Yuan Dynasty became interested: "Oh, please tell me, my dear minister."

The Minister of Works and other court officials looked at him, wanting to hear what he had to say.

The Minister of Rites pursed his lips in thought and said, "Princess Yongkang and Huimeng Kingdom are old friends. It might be more appropriate to let Princess Yongkang come to greet them personally."

The fifty-five-year-old Zhenguo Gong frowned: "But the princess is less than nine years old, is this appropriate?"

What he actually meant was that the princess was too young and perhaps not experienced enough.

Grand Tutor Fu agreed, "Your Majesty, what the Duke of Zhenguo said makes sense."

The Minister of Revenue Mu Jinnian said, "Your Majesty, what the Duke of Zhenguo said is indeed reasonable, but I think what the Minister of Rites said is also very reasonable."

As a result, there were people in the court who agreed and disagreed, and the candidate was not decided for a while.

General Guangwei frowned and said, "It's not that troublesome. We can just go together."

These civil officials are just procrastinating.

Dali Temple Minister Liu said: "General Guangwei is right. Since both are suitable, let the princess take over and find another suitable person."

In fact, the position of Minister of Rites is high enough, but the emperor may want someone with a better status, and the princess is undoubtedly one of the suitable candidates.

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty curled his lips and smiled: "What the Dali Temple Minister said is correct. The princess has decided first. I will choose someone from outside the court to accompany the princess and the Minister of Rites to welcome them together."

After staying in Shundao County for some time, Shen Jiarou and others went to Fenghe County.

When the county magistrate, Lord Lin, learned that the princess had returned to the county, he paid a visit the next day.

"I pay my respects to the princess, and wish her the best of health."

Shen Jiarou was wearing a plain purple and pink dress and sitting in the main seat.

"Master Lin, please excuse me and take a seat!"

Lord Lin bowed and said, "Thank you, Princess, for letting me sit down."

Yaer brought a cup of Dongting tea: "My lord, please have some tea!"

Lord Lin said very gently: "Thank you, young lady."

This favorite person around the emperor is rare to see, so he must cherish her.

"How is Fenghe County these days?"

When Lord Lin heard this, he quickly put down his teacup and said, "Everything is fine."

"Princess, thanks to you, everything is fine. How are you doing?"

"It's nice to travel along the way." It's good to have a fiefdom, so she can leave the palace openly for fun every year.
