I traveled to the era of female supremacy and became a bad woman
Chapter 60 The Last Side
On the second day,
Xiao Qingyue and Zhu Qing were about to leave the general's mansion. Zhu Qing was holding the cakes and sweet soup made by Xiao Qingyue herself.
Xiao Qingyue got up early in the morning and started making sweet soup and pastries. Ever since she decided to be with His Highness, she had let it go. She thought about going to the palace every day and was now rushing to have lunch with Feng Zhaoyun.
A master and a servant walked out of the general's mansion. A carriage drove up, and Xiao Qingyue was about to get on it. A carriage from the palace stopped at the general's mansion.
The person who got off the carriage was the eunuch who was delivering the empress's imperial edict. When the eunuch saw Xiao Qingyue was about to leave, he hurried towards him.
Xiao Qingyue stood beside the carriage. The eunuch stepped forward and saluted respectfully, "Master Xiao, are you going out?"
Xiao Qingyue returned the greeting and nodded, "Are you here to see my mother, sir? My mother is in the mansion."
The young eunuch smiled when he heard this and said, "Sir, I am here to deliver an imperial decree. This decree concerns you. Please follow me in."
Xiao Qingyue was stunned for a moment, then nodded and entered the general's mansion.
General Xiao also rushed to the main hall. When the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict saw that everyone was present, he took out the imperial edict.
The eunuch delivering the decree said, "Xiao Yushan and Xiao Qingyue, receive the decree. By the will of Heaven, the Emperor decrees that Xiao Yushan's son, Xiao Qingyue, is a man of exceptional literary talent and a role model for all the men of Kyoto. He is hereby granted marriage to Nangong Liuying, the Sixth Princess of the Moon Kingdom, as his concubine. In consideration of the old general's hard work and contributions, he will be welcomed into the family with the ceremony of a principal concubine. This is decreed."
After hearing the imperial edict, Xiao Qingyue did not stand up but continued to kneel on the ground.
Xiao Yushan looked unwilling and stood up to receive the order, "Your Majesty... accept the order!"
Seeing Xiao Qingyue remained silent and unmoved, the eunuch delivering the decree asked, "Master Xiao, why don't you accept the decree?"
Xiao Qingyue remained silent.
The eunuch delivering the imperial edict looked at Xiao Yushan, then raised his voice again and said, "Master Xiao! Are you planning to disobey my order?"
Xiao Qingyue finally raised her head and saluted to receive the order.
After the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict left, Xiao Qingyue was still kneeling on the ground, at a loss.
Xiao Yushan knew his son well. He was proud and arrogant, and was afraid that he might become confused and want to commit suicide. He personally came over to help Xiao Qingyue up, "Qingyue... Qingyue... don't do this..."
Xiao Qingyue remained silent. General Xiao looked at Zhu Qing and said, "Take the young master back to his room. There must be someone in the room at all times. If anything happens to the young master, you can just follow him."
Xiao Qingyue raised her head and looked at Xiao Yushan, "Mother, I don't want to!"
Xiao Yushan panicked and quickly dismissed the servants around him, "Everyone get out! Zhuqing, you get out too!"
Everyone left the main hall, leaving only Xiao Yushan and his mother. Xiao Qingyue stepped forward and grabbed Xiao Yushan, "Mother, please go and ask His Majesty that I don't want to marry Nangong Liuying."
Xiao Yushan looked helpless and sighed, "Qingyue, there is one thing that my mother has never told you."
Xiao Qingyue looked at Xiao Yushan, "What's the matter?"
Xiao Yushan sat down. "It's not that my mother doesn't want to go. Everyone in the Shang Kingdom knows that His Royal Highness the War Prince is the Queen's favorite. In order to prevent you from marrying Nangong Liuying, His Royal Highness the War Prince knelt in the Imperial Study for a whole day and night, begging for an imperial decree to grant you marriage and take you into the palace. The Queen was furious and refused to agree. Even when she fell unconscious from a fever, she still refused to agree. How can my mother compare to His Royal Highness the War Prince's favor?"
Xiao Qingyue was shocked when he heard this. It turned out to be because of him. He finally understood why His Highness wanted him to stay indoors and wait for her to come back...
Xiao Qingyue stood up and hurried out of the main hall, but was stopped by Xiao Yushan. "Are you going to look for His Highness? Qingyue, it's useless. His Highness Prince Zhan has already asked His Majesty to marry you. Even if he agreed, you wouldn't have waited for this imperial decree."
Xiao Qingyue paused but did not turn around. "Mother, I know, I just want to see her for the last time..." Then she walked out of the house without looking back.
Arriving at Prince Zhan's mansion, the housekeeper heard about it and went out to greet him. Xiao Qingyue stepped forward and said, "Qingyue, I wish to see His Highness."
The butler saluted respectfully and said, "Mr. Xiao, His Highness is currently in the military camp and we don't know when he will return."
Xiao Qingyue: "Then I will wait for His Highness."
The butler nodded and gestured for invitation, "Sir, please follow me to the main hall and wait."
Xiao Qingyue nodded and stepped into the palace...
At this time, Feng Zhaoyun had just arrived at the military camp on horseback.
This was her first time entering the military camp. When the soldiers learned that His Royal Highness the King of War was coming in person, they were extremely excited and had been waiting at the reviewing platform.
Feng Zhaoyun walked up to the reviewing platform and looked at the extremely neat troops, but he was still shocked.
My abilities are indeed not as good as my predecessor's, and all the honors I enjoy now were earned by my predecessor.
After counting the troops and inspecting the barracks, Feng Zhaoyun entered the commander's tent. Deputy General Xue Ziyan stepped forward, kneeling in greeting. "Your Highness, everything is ready. The troops are ready to depart at any time!"
Deputy General Xue has a very loud voice and looks very heroic, but speaks in a very rough manner.
Suddenly, a man rushed in from outside the tent. He did not expect Feng Zhaoyun to come to the barracks in person, and he even put on his armor before entering the tent.
Lieutenant General Xue saw the person coming so recklessly and turned to look at her with a frown, "Xiao Siying! His Highness is here, how can you behave like this!"
Feng Zhaoyun smiled. He hadn't seen her for a long time since he was in Huajun Pavilion.
Xiao Siying is Xiao Qingyue's cousin. She had always followed her predecessor to battle. Since Feng Zhaoyun woke up, she hasn't been to the military camp. After Xiao Siying found out, she stopped coming. I didn't expect His Highness to come here so suddenly today.
Xiao Siying knelt hurriedly, "Your Highness, please forgive me. I am late."
Feng Zhaoyun looked at her and said, "Get up. Are you hanging out in the Huajun Pavilion again?"
Everyone held their foreheads in their hands. Could it be that even His Highness knew about this?
Xiao Siying raised her head and said something shocking, "Your Highness, you may not know that several new Flower Masters have recently come to the Flower Master Pavilion. If Your Highness is free, I will take you there..."
"Xiao Siying!" Jiuyi and Deputy General Xue spoke at the same time.
Xiao Siying knelt down quickly, not daring to look up. Feng Zhaoyun waved his hand, "No problem. Since you're so free, come with me to the south to suppress the bandits tomorrow."
After hearing this, Xiao Siying's eyes lit up, and he looked up with joy, "Thank you, Your Highness! Your subordinate thanks you!"
Feng Zhaoyun looked at the people below him and said, "This time we are heading south to suppress bandits. His Majesty has not allowed the military camp to travel too far from the capital. Only a few hundred of my personal soldiers are needed."
Xiao Siying patted his chest and said, "Your Highness! Why hundreds? I can just lead a few dozen to charge in!"
Deputy General Xue and the others held their foreheads in their hands...
Jiuyi stopped him, "Xiao Siying! Be mindful of your words and actions in front of His Highness!"
After hearing this, Xiao Siying lowered her head and said nothing. Feng Zhaoyun felt that she was very straightforward and smiled. "No problem."
Feng Zhaoyun stayed in the military camp for the entire day, and only returned to the palace when dinner was almost over.
Xiao Qingyue had been waiting since noon, and it had been several hours. As soon as she entered the mansion, the housekeeper came to report...
