The Rebirth of a Daughter: My Lord, I Will Never Be a Concubine

"Hmph, I don't know when Prince Mo started caring about other people's opinions." Xing Jian couldn't stand it anymore. If he continued like this, when would his Yan Yan be free again?

"Besides, haven't you always been in love with the Second Miss of the Su family? Anyway, the late emperor granted you a marriage contract with the Su family, but he didn't say which one. Since you like the Second Miss Su, why not marry her?"

Xing Jian's phoenix eyes were fearless, and he told him all the little things, with a smile that was so evil and charming.

Upon hearing this, those who knew about this matter and those who didn't were all shocked.

Those who knew about this couldn't believe the rumor was true? Did Prince Mo really like Su Ruoxi? They didn't expect Master Xing to be so bold as to directly tear off Mo Cerong's fig leaf.

No wonder Su Yanhua wanted to cancel the engagement. It turned out that Prince Mo not only disliked her, but also fell in love with Su Ruoxi, Su Yanhua's half-sister. How could Su Yanhua tolerate this?

How shameless of a concubine's daughter to covet the legitimate daughter's fiancé!

At this moment, Su Ruoxi felt endless malice coming towards her, and her face was pale. If the maid next to her had not supported her, she would have fallen to the ground.

"Master Xing, stop talking nonsense. Your groundless speculations are extremely damaging to a woman's reputation." Mo Cerong narrowed his eyes slightly.

Xing Jian still looked lazy. He leaned lightly against the beam, playing with the jade pendant on his waist and speaking casually.

"Do you dare to say that you have nothing to do with Su Ruoxi?"

Mo Cerong couldn't answer, because even he himself didn't know why he disagreed. He obviously disliked Su Yanhua before, but why did he suddenly panic when she proposed to cancel the engagement, and stood up to stop her almost without thinking?

He opened his mouth, not knowing what to say. Suddenly, he saw Su Ruoxi's red and wet eyes. Her red eyes seemed to express endless grievances and sadness.

The guilt in Mo Cerong's heart once again overwhelmed him.

The gorgeous red palace dress suddenly came to his mind, fluttering like the wind. Although it was only for a moment, the warmth it brought to him was engraved in his bones.

Yes, he likes Su Ruoxi, not Su Yanhua!

It was the little girl who gave him apricot blossom cake!

How could he hurt her like this?

Mo Cerong turned his back to Su Yanhua and said with a determined heart, "Brother Emperor, I wish..."

"Alright, I understand what you're thinking. Before, you said Su Yanhua was completely unlettered, and therefore had no interest in getting to know her better. I also know you tend to be impatient, but the astonishing talent Su Yanhua displayed today truly took everyone present by surprise. Furthermore, this engagement was personally granted by our father, so if you wish to cancel it lightly, you must consider it more carefully. Therefore, I will grant you a few more months to get to know each other and get along."

The emperor's words were final and unambiguous.

After the emperor said this, who dared to say anything else!

Mo Cerong closed his mouth. He felt extremely complicated. He didn't know why he felt so complicated but relieved at the same time. When he saw Su Ruoxi, his mood rose again.

Su Yanhua knew almost everything about the cancellation of the engagement. She had thought it through. If the emperor disagreed, she would definitely use two graces to suppress him. Moreover, this was happening in front of all the ministers. No matter what the result was, she had to hold out hope and give it a try.

Unexpectedly, after she said just one sentence, Mo Cerong and Xing Jian acted like a double act, and she had no room to get a word in.

Just when he wanted to say something again, the emperor had already spoken and it was impossible to take it back.

What else can I say?

Cui'er looked at Su Yanhua walking slowly towards her, her delicate face turned gloomy, and her eyes seemed to be burning with anger.

Cui'er was stunned and didn't dare to say a word!

Why are you angry, miss?

Su Yanhua failed to get the first favor she asked for. In order to prevent her from mentioning some favors that were difficult to achieve, the emperor asked her to go down and think about it.

However, what was unexpected was that the grace Xu Qing requested was so simple and direct—she begged the emperor to personally decide on her reward. This request seemed ordinary, but it contained deep meaning and wisdom.

When the emperor heard this request, he was overjoyed. He thought to himself: This woman is not only beautiful and talented, but also humble and sensible. So, after careful consideration, the emperor decreed that Xu Qing be granted the title of Princess, making her the second princess in the history of Yunqin to receive this honor.

The first princess is the daughter of Marquis Nalan’s Mansion—Princess Linglong!

This news immediately caused a stir throughout the court and the country. Everyone marveled at Xu Qing's good fortune and favor, and praised the emperor's generous gift. For the Xu family, this was undoubtedly a great honor and esteem. They knew that Xu Qing's appointment as a princess not only embodied the family's status and prestige, but also earned the emperor's high recognition and attention. From then on, the Xu family would be highly respected within Yunqin, and their power and influence would continue to grow.

This grand banquet was coming to an end and slowly closed.

A huge group of people filed out. Cui'er followed behind Su Yanhua, not knowing what to say.

It seems like the young lady has been unhappy since the party ended?

"Miss Su, please stay—"

Su Yanhua stopped and turned around to look. A palace maid came over quickly and said politely, "Miss Su, my princess invites you—"

"Xu Qing?" Su Yanhua asked.

The maid denied it, "It's Princess Linglong, Miss Su."

Su Yanhua suddenly remembered that a few days after her rebirth, Princess Linglong went to Taihang Mountain to pray for the late emperor for half a year. She didn't expect that time passed so quickly and half a year passed in a flash.

Led by the palace maid, Su Yanhua came to a bamboo forest, which was simple and elegant. Nalan Linglong's preferences were similar to Nalan Yanyu's.

"Yan Hua!"

A clear voice sounded behind her. Su Yanhua turned around and saw the cute and lovely Nalan Linglong appeared in front of her.

Nalan Linglong was dressed in a blood-red dress, the sleeves of which fluttered gently in the wind, like a burning flame dancing in the air. Her figure was graceful and elegant, and every step she took exuded a charming charm.

The most striking thing about her were her beautiful eyes. They were narrow and slightly upturned, like two crescent moons, revealing endless charm and tenderness.

Nalan Linglong widened her eyes and looked at Su Yanhua, her eyes full of amazement.

"Yan Hua, you've changed so much?"

Su Yanhua used to be beautiful and charming, but now wherever Su Yanhua goes, she is a sight of elegance!

Nalan Linglong couldn't believe it and asked, "Yan Hua, what did you go through?"

Su Yanhua smiled and said, "You've changed a lot, you've grown up!"

Nalan Linglong chuckled: "Please stop talking. Even though I'm grown up, my brother still nags me every day. I'm almost annoyed to death by him."

Nalan Linglong pulled Su Yanhua into the room, and what caught her eyes was a sliver of moon-white light.

Nalan Linglong pointed at Nalan Yanyu who was playing chess and said coquettishly, "Yan Hua, help me talk about him!"

When Su Yanhua saw Nalan Yanyu, she could only stand quietly by the side without saying a word.

Su Yanhua slowly walked forward, looked at the chess pieces, and said, "What's the point of playing chess alone?"

Nalan Yanyu paused, looked up at her, his eyes softening.

"It's okay, don't worry about me, you women can just speak your mind."

Nalan Linglong pursed her lips and laughed.
