The regent is determined to get the daughter of a minor official.
Chapter 245 Should I Thank You
Xu Keke walked towards the carriage with brisk steps, followed closely by Dingdang and Anxiang.
When Sheng Er and Sheng Wu saw them coming, they hurriedly saluted.
"I've met the princess."
Xu Ke waved her hand, lifted her skirt and got into the carriage.
At first glance, I saw Chu Musheng sitting in the carriage reading a book.
"Why is the prince here?"
Chu Musheng put down the book and helped Xu Ke to sit down.
"I am here to take you back to the palace."
Hearing this, Xu Ke's smile widened and she put her arms around Chu Musheng's neck.
"I didn't expect the prince to be so studious and to be reading even in the carriage."
"My beloved concubine is in the ladies' club. It's not convenient for me to go in, so I can only read a book here to kill time."
Chu Musheng hugged her lovingly.
"Did you have fun today?"
Xu Ke raised his head, his eyes shining.
"I'm so happy, Your Highness. I played mahjong with Mother and the others today, and Mother won quite a bit of money."
Chu Musheng scratched her nose lightly.
"You just know how to make people happy."
The two hugged each other as the carriage slowly drove towards Prince Sheng's Palace.
At the same time, Princess Fu also got on her own carriage.
Thinking back on what happened today, a smile appeared on my lips.
Princess Sheng said that couples should communicate more.
The Regent and Princess Sheng have such a good relationship, this must be their way of getting along.
Princess Fu returned to the palace and asked the servants, and learned that the prince was having a pleasant conversation with the man in the pavilion in the garden.
So she decided to go over and take a look.
Before she arrived, Prince Fu's secret guard informed Prince Fu.
"My Lord, the princess is here."
Prince Fu waved to the young man.
"You step back first."
The young man left from another route, and the secret guard also hid himself.
When Princess Fu came to the pavilion, Prince Fu was sitting there alone drinking tea.
"My Lord, I'm back."
Princess Fu said with a smile.
Prince Fu nodded.
"Princess, come and sit down!"
After Princess Fu walked into the pavilion and sat down, she finally couldn't help but speak.
"Your Majesty, I have something to ask you."
Prince Fu felt nervous, but he pretended to be calm.
"What's the matter?"
"What are your plans regarding the man who lives in the wing next to the study? I am truly uneasy."
Princess Fu stared at Prince Fu.
Prince Fu sighed deeply.
"This is a long story, ma'am, don't worry. I will tell you when the time is right."
A hint of disappointment flashed in Princess Fu's eyes.
"Your Majesty, I have been married into your palace for many years and have always trusted you. But now that you have concealed something, it really makes me feel disheartened."
Prince Fu looked guilty.
"Madam, I didn't mean to hide it. It's just that this matter has far-reaching implications, and I'm doing this for your own good."
Princess Fu said nothing more and just silently poured herself a cup of tea.
Just as he was about to drink, Prince Fu spoke up to stop him.
"Princess, this teacup has been used by someone else."
Princess Fu's hand holding the teacup stopped in mid-air, and she suddenly turned her hand and smashed the teacup to the ground.
"Who is that other person? Is it your male lover, Your Highness?"
Prince Fu's face darkened and he shouted sternly.
"Princess, please stop talking nonsense and losing your composure!"
Princess Fu's eyes were red and her voice was trembling.
"Am I talking nonsense? Your Majesty, ever since that man moved into the mansion, you've become increasingly cold towards me and my concubines, and now you're not even willing to give me an explanation!"
"I told you the time is not right yet, why are you so aggressive?"
Prince Fu stood up suddenly and glared at Princess Fu.
Princess Fu burst into tears.
"Aggressive? I just want the truth and want you to be honest with me. Is that wrong?"
"You are simply unreasonable in your opinion of women!"
Prince Fu was so angry that he stormed out.
Princess Fu looked at Prince Fu's departing back, slumped on the stool, and murmured softly.
"How can we communicate this? I'm wrong. People are different after all..."
......
Prince Sheng's Palace.
Xu Keke and Chu Musheng also asked about the young man in Prince Fu's mansion.
"Your Highness, is the man that Prince Fu brought back to the palace from another world?"
Chu Musheng didn't want to mention this topic, but since the princess asked, he nodded and answered.
"That's true."
Xu Ke looked curious.
"Is this.....also possible for men?"
Chu Musheng rubbed his eyebrows.
"I don't know either! There were only three people to choose from. Prince Rui took the woman away, leaving only two men.
Prince Fu then took the young man, and I did not inquire about what happened to him after he was taken back."
Xu Keke keenly captured the key words.
"Your Highness, are you talking about that time? Could it be that he later found someone from another world?"
Chu Musheng scratched her nose.
"My beloved concubine is very smart. This time when Prince Ning returned to the capital from the south, Sheng Si asked him to bring back two people, saying they were a boy and a girl. I haven't seen them yet."
License can...
My goodness, the great Chu Kingdom is almost being riddled with holes by time travelers.
"My Lord, are you still going to continue searching for people from another world?"
Chu Musheng gently held Xu Keke's hand.
"My beloved, I am the regent who governs the country.
Only now do I know that there are people from other worlds in this dynasty. I don’t know whether their existence is a blessing or a curse.
If it can be used by our Great Chu State, it would be a good thing, but if it causes trouble, it should not be underestimated.
This king must secretly find these people to prevent them from causing trouble for the Great Chu Dynasty."
Xu Keke is very good at thinking from other people's perspectives. She feels that given Chu Musheng's position, what he did was indeed right.
Taking precautions before problems arise is the foresight of every person in power.
Xu Ke nodded.
"I agree with your Highness. The process of searching for someone from another world will probably not be smooth sailing. We must proceed with caution and not alert the enemy."
After receiving Xu Keke's approval, Chu Musheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He was worried that the princess would sympathize with those people as a person from another world.
"Don't worry, my beloved, I have an idea in mind. There are so many people in this sea of people, finding them is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
This king wants to set up an official position and let Prince Ning and General Song be in charge of this matter.
Of course, on the surface, they will become imperial envoys, traveling to various prefectures to inspect cases.”
Xu Keke blinked and poked Chu Musheng's chest with a smile.
"Your Highness, you are truly good at selecting and appointing the right people. Prince Ning and his men have just returned to the capital.
And my good sister is about to give birth, are you going to send them out again?"
Chu Musheng chuckled.
“My beloved concubine, perhaps you don’t know enough about the official positions in this dynasty.
Although Prince Ning's identity and status are noble, the title of Prince is not an official position.
The Crown Prince is the official title of the legal heir to the hereditary title, and does not directly hold real power.
Just like in the capital, there are many princes who are idle and become playboys.
If their reputation was too bad, they would inherit the title or be demoted to a lower rank. In serious cases, they would not be able to inherit the title at all.
The title of Duke of Ningguo can only be inherited for three generations, and the current Prince Ning is already the third generation.
And I appoint him as the Imperial Commissioner, a title granted to officials of the third rank and above in the capital to inspect local areas and handle specific affairs on behalf of the emperor.
This appointment does not affect Prince Ning's future inheritance of the title of Duke, and he also has certain real power.
If Prince Ning makes great achievements in his life and contributes to the court, his next generation may be able to continue the legacy.
You thought about your good sister and ended Prince Ning's career with just one sentence.
I don’t know whether your good sister should thank you or thank you.”
