The princess has space, and her life turns around when she turns into a silly woman
Chapter 4: Golden and Beautiful
Shangguan Qing pulled out a gold hairpin from her head, making her hair even more disheveled. Her hair was already messy to begin with, and now it was even more messy.
Everyone looked at him with disdain, and the emperor also looked disgusted. He said helplessly, "Since you all want to cancel the engagement, then do it."
Shangguan Qing was overjoyed. It looked like she was going to make a fortune, but her expression remained calm. She spoke in a sweet and innocent tone, "Golden ones still look better. Does the Crown Prince agree? If so, I'll return the engagement token. If not, forget it. Being the Crown Princess is much more fun."
This sentence stimulated the prince again, "Okay, I agree."
Shangguan Qing played with the gold hairpin in his hand and said, "When the prince sends the gold to the general's mansion, we will return the engagement token and the engagement will be cancelled."
The prince gritted his teeth and said, "Okay."
The emperor seemed to have made his final decision at this moment and said, "My son, please don't regret it."
The prince nodded firmly, "Don't worry, Father. I won't regret it. I already have another solution."
The emperor closed his eyes and said, "If that's the case, then let's cancel this marriage. I'm tired, everyone please withdraw."
Shangguan Qing's lips curled up into a barely perceptible smile, and then she knelt down without hesitation. This was the first time she had knelt down in her life!
When in Rome, do as the Romans do. After all, you need help from others. But the moment her knees touched the ground, she felt a pain. After all, her body weighing more than 200 pounds was no joke.
However, Shangguan Qing didn't care about this. She spoke earnestly and softly, "Your Majesty, my engagement has been broken off, and I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to marry again in the future. If I find someone I like in the future, I hope Your Majesty can grant me a marriage."
The emperor was already upset at this time, so how could he have the mind to care about these trivial matters?
He waved his hands impatiently and said in a deep voice, "Forget it, forget it. As long as you want to marry anyone, I will agree. Hurry and get off."
Shangguan Qing was overjoyed and quickly kowtowed to express his gratitude: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
In fact, she just didn't want to be arranged to marry again, which would save her a lot of trouble.
After saying that, he stood up and turned to look at the group of children from aristocratic families behind him.
The crowd that had gathered together quickly scattered like frightened birds and beasts, and in the blink of an eye, only a tall and majestic figure was left standing there alone.
Shangguan Qing couldn't help but widen his eyes, secretly surprised in his heart, this guy is so handsome!
Not only does she have a tall and slender figure, but she also has a perfect face that seems to have been carved by AI, which makes people fall in love with her at first sight.
Perhaps because he had been looking for too long, the man coughed softly, and Shangguan Qing realized that the man's forehead was blue. He looked strong but his muscles seemed weak.
Shangguan Qing knew at first glance that this man was poisoned. It was interesting because this was the emperor's only younger brother and the late emperor's most beloved youngest son. He had been trained in the army since he was a child, but when he came back, it was to attend a funeral and his elder brother sat on the throne.
In order to show his love for his younger brother, the emperor took back his brother's military power and appointed him as regent. However, it was just a position with no power and was nothing more than a political show.
Shangguan Qing shook his head and stood up to leave, then he saw the prince's resentful gaze.
Shangguan Qing raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a sly smile, and said softly: "Brother Crown Prince, don't forget to bring enough gold to cancel the engagement."
These words were like a sharp blade, deeply hurting the prince's heart.
He was so angry that he clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and turned away.
The prince went straight to the queen's bedroom. The queen frowned and scolded him, "My son, you are too impulsive. This matter should have been handled with caution, but now it has become like this."
The Crown Prince retorted indignantly, "Mother, although I may have been a little impulsive, this may not be a bad thing. That fool is not worthy of being my Crown Princess. Only my cousin is worthy of me."
As the niece of the queen and the granddaughter of the prime minister, Jiang Yiyi was shy at the moment, with her head down and not saying a word.
When the prime minister saw this scene, he was secretly delighted and felt that this was indeed a great opportunity.
So, he said, "Your Highness is right. How can a fool like Shangguan Qing be a match for the Crown Prince? But how can we raise this gold right now?"
The prince quickly responded, "Grandfather, I will do my best to raise hundreds of thousands of taels of silver from the Prince's Mansion. As for the rest, I'll have to rely on you to figure it out."
The prime minister pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.
Jiang Yiyi said immediately after hearing this: "This is absolutely not allowed! Grandfather, think about it, if this batch of silver comes out of our house, how will the emperor view us? Will he think that grandfather has some improper transactions in private? If so, won't it make the emperor suspicious of us?"
The prince's expression suddenly darkened. He sneered and said, "Cousin, what you said is really interesting! The Jiang family is my in-laws' family, so why can't it be possible? There is no free lunch in the world. If you want something, you must pay a price!"
Jiang Yiyi lowered her head and remained silent.
The Queen said helplessly, "Yiyi is right. This matter is indeed a bit tricky. But no matter what, we can't easily give up this opportunity to break off the engagement."
Prime Minister Jiang sighed and said slowly, "Well, if that's the case, I'll have the money delivered to the farm outside the city. You can go and collect it when you have time. However, this matter must be handled with caution and we must not cause unnecessary trouble."
The prince was very happy to hear the news and thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you, grandfather! If I ascend to the throne in the future, I will never forget the great kindness of the Jiang family!"
Prime Minister Jiang nodded repeatedly to express his satisfaction.
Afterwards, everyone left. Just when Jiang Yiyi was leaving the Queen's bedroom, Murong Xuan suddenly grabbed her and pulled her directly into her palace.
Murong Xuan glared at Jiang Yiyi and questioned her, "Cousin, do you really not want my brother to break off the engagement? Do you want him to continue to be with that woman? You don't like my brother at all, do you?"
Jiang Yiyi was shocked when she heard this, "Princess, what are you saying, I don't understand?"
Murong Xuan smiled slightly, with a sly glint in her eyes: "Cousin, don't think I can't see it, I know you don't want to be the Crown Princess at all, you want to be my Imperial Aunt, right?"
Jiang Yiyi's face changed, and she suddenly covered Murong Xuan's mouth and said nervously: "Princess, don't talk nonsense, it's not true!"
Murong Xuan pushed Jiang Yiyi's hand away and said smugly, "Humph, even if you don't admit it, I know it. But don't worry, I won't expose you. As long as you listen to me, I will keep this secret."
Jiang Yiyi's heart sank, but she still forced a smile, "Princess, don't worry. As long as I can help you, Yiyi will do her best."
Murong Xuan smiled complacently, "That's more like it. Remember, from now on, when I ask you for help, you must help me."
Jiang Yiyi gritted her teeth and nodded, "Okay, Yiyi will do it."
Murong Xuan nodded with satisfaction, "Very good, this princess will naturally do what she says."
And just like that, the two of them made a deal.
At this moment, Shangguan Qing was dragging his fat body and walking towards the palace gate with difficulty.
I have to say that the palace is too big and it is really not friendly for a fat man like me.
Shangguan Qing was panting as he finally reached the palace gate, only to find his maid Chuntao pacing anxiously there.
When Chun Tao saw Shangguan Qing, she immediately came forward, her face filled with panic: "Miss, this is bad, this is bad, our carriage is gone!"
Shangguan Qing raised the corner of his mouth slightly and chuckled, "If it's gone, then it's gone. How could it be lost at the gate of the palace?"
Chun Tao was a little dazed, looking at Shangguan Qing's eyes, she felt that the young lady had become smarter. Then she said, "Miss, the carriage is gone. How can we go back?"
Shangguan Qing glanced at Chuntao, and the smile on his face became more obvious. "Can't we just take this bus back home?"
Chun Tao stared at Shangguan Qing with wide eyes, "Miss, this is the second young lady's carriage, how can you ride in her carriage?"
Shangguan Qing took Chuntao's hand and said softly, "Chuntao, I know you are good to me, so I will reluctantly take my second sister's carriage."
Just as Chuntao was puzzled, Shangguan Qing had already boarded the carriage and shouted to the people behind, "Second sister, Chuntao is right. The carriages of the General's Mansion should naturally prioritize me, the eldest daughter of the General's Mansion. As for you, you should find a way to go back."
Shangguan Qingcheng was stunned on the spot. What was going on? That idiot was sitting in her carriage. She roared angrily.
"Shangguan Qing, get off right now. That's my carriage."
However, the carriage had already sped away, leaving only Chuntao and Shangguan Qingcheng, the master and servant.
