Traveling through time and space

"Princess, is this all you want to eat?" Fu Siyuan asked curiously.

"Isn't this good?" Gu Yuanyuan quickly finished the noodles, put down the bowl, wiped his mouth with the handkerchief handed to him by Dongmei, stood up and walked away, checking the damaged crops while cursing those bastards in his heart who ate human food but did nothing for their own benefit.

"Princess, people are coming, people are coming." Qiumei's voice was heard from afar, and she was seen rushing towards her.

"Qiumei, why are you so flustered?" Dongmei stepped forward and stopped Qiumei who was about to pounce on her.

"Princess, Eunuch Zhang is here and wants you to return to the Princess Mansion immediately because the imperial edict is about to arrive." Rumei said anxiously.

"Did they say anything else?" Gu Yuanyuan felt a little regretful. Why didn't she go to the palace last night, secretly of course, to see what the mother and her two children were up to.

"Eunuch Zhang didn't say anything, only saying that the princess had to receive the order in person, and wait for Eunuch Shen to come in person." Gu Yuanyuan had no choice but to give a few more instructions and got into the car. The car quickly stopped at the door of the princess's mansion, but unexpectedly, someone had already arrived at the door of the princess's mansion.

"Mother, that bastard is back." This joyful voice came from the car. Gu Yuanyuan knew who it was without even looking. Of course, she ignored them and went straight into the mansion and went to Yishu Courtyard. Gu Yuanyuan didn't want to live here anymore, so she asked someone to pack some clothes and leave.

"Put them down. These are my princess's things. You bitches, don't even think about taking them away."

"Miss, these are all used by me. Do you still want them?" Gu Yuanyuan asked cautiously, adhering to the principle of angering someone to death.

"Take it away, take it away. This princess will never use anything that bitch has used." The woman was guarding the door with four maids, including the woman she saw that day.

"Miss, you are the girl who followed this princess to discuss business that day." Gu Yuanyuan finally remembered who that person was.

"Yes, our queen asked this slave to approach you."

"The imperial edict has arrived." As the shouting got closer, footsteps were heard, "Your servant greets the princess." It turned out that Eunuch Shen had brought people with him.

"Eunuch Shen, please announce the decree." Gu Yuanyuan said directly. She would not make things difficult for Eunuch Shen.

"By the Will of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims..." This imperial decree once again shocked Gu Yuanyuan to the point of being crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a shocking impact no less than when he found out that he was not that woman's child.

"This old servant congratulates Princess Anle. Congratulations, Princess Anle." Eunuch Shen smiled happily. "Miss Ziyuan, please accept the decree." Eunuch Shen read out another decree, but this one did not meet some people's expectations.

"You are falsely conveying the imperial edict. My father will not treat me like this. I am his biological daughter. He will not let me be worse than a bastard." Miss Ziyuan was of course very unwilling.

Gu Yuanyuan was quite satisfied, although it was not the answer she wanted. "Princess, the emperor said that Princess Anle's contribution to our Qingyang over the years is obvious to all. The emperor is very happy to have Princess Anle as his adopted daughter. The princess will take away all the rewards she has received and all her own earnings. There is a courtyard in Shenjing Alley, and the emperor has already given it to her. Please continue to manage the farm as usual and make Qingyang stronger. As for what the princess said last time, the emperor said it is up to her. The emperor also asked the princess to take good care of the crops with all her heart."

"Eunuch Shen, Yuanyuan cannot accept this decree." Gu Yuanyuan knelt down and spoke.

"Princess, what do you mean?"

"Eunuch Shen, this princess's position is not legitimate. Yuanyuan cannot accept this decree. Yuanyuan wants to see the emperor in person."

"Princess, please stand up quickly. I will take you to the palace." Eunuch Shen quickly moved to the side to avoid Gu Yuanyuan's gift.

"Pack my things, I will go to the palace with you, eunuch."

"Eunuch Shen, we servants want to follow the young lady. No matter whether she is a princess or not, no matter how rich and powerful she is, we servants are willing to follow her." Nanny Shang and Xiao Maozi knelt in front of Eunuch Shen.

"Yes, Eunuch Shen, I am willing to do so, even if it means having to eat coarse food." The little Maozi choked a little.

"Eunuch Shen, we are willing too." Dongmei and Rumei also continued.

"You guys," to be honest, Gu Yuanyuan was moved. She didn't want to be a princess. First, she was a little angry that she believed the woman based on her one-sided words. Without herself, she would have two more children, which was also a good thing. However, Gu Yuanyuan not only smelled a strange smell from the woman's side, but also saw the guilty conscience in the woman's heart. Second, if she was no longer a princess, she could focus on making money and live a very free and easy life. Third, if she was no longer a princess, there would be less trouble and peace. Now there was such a good opportunity, why not use it? "Eunuch Shen, if it is appropriate, please let them go with Yuanyuan."

"Princess, the Emperor only said that he had gone to the palace soldiers and the fiefdom. Except for the jade disc, everything else is the same as before. Why are you still unwilling to accept this order? Even the name is the same."

"Eunuch Shen, please take Yuanyuan to meet the emperor," Gu Yuanyuan didn't want to say it twice.

"Okay, I'll take you into the palace." Gu Yuanyuan was silent all the way, thinking about whether to tell the truth in front of the emperor or not.

"Princess, why are you doing this?"

"Eunuch Shen, just based on that woman's one-sided words, he doesn't want me as his daughter anymore. I've treated him sincerely over the years, and I'm just a little disappointed. Since I'm not his biological daughter, but a wild girl, why do I need this title? Maybe I was born to be a lonely star, destined to have no family by my side. I was abandoned when I was a child, and finally had a grandmother, but she died. Now my father, who treated me sincerely, doesn't want me anymore, so why should I cherish this family relationship?"

"I'm going to say something a bit over the top, but a princess should be a princess and not suffer in her life."

"Eunuch Shen, the emperor has found his biological children and will no longer treat Yuanyuan well. Yuanyuan doesn't want charity and wants to go out for a walk."

"Alas, you silly child, I won't be able to see you anymore."

"Eunuch Shen, you call me Yuanyuan. Yuanyuan doesn't deserve your call of servant. You are just like the uncle next door. Yuanyuan remembers all the kindness you have shown her over the years."

"Okay, okay, you have to be good and remember to come and see me next time."

"Okay, eunuch, take care of yourself too." They had just arrived at the palace gate.

"Princess, I will take you to see the emperor." Gu Yuanyuan followed Eunuch Shen, but Gu Yuanyuan became a scenery. People passing by along the way were talking and whispering, "What are you doing?" Eunuch Shen shouted loudly.

"It's okay, eunuch. Yuanyuan wants to leave the capital for a while. She doesn't want to live in the limelight and become the focus of other people's discussions. This makes Yuanyuan feel scared." Eunuch Shen entered the hall first and came out soon.

"Princess, the emperor lets you in." Eunuch Shen went and came back.

"Yuanyuan greets the emperor." Gu Yuanyuan knelt down and saluted.

"I heard that you don't want to be called princess."

"Yes, Your Majesty, Yuanyuan is not your daughter, so she is naturally unworthy of this title."

"Are you angry because the emperor is not your biological father?"

"No, Yuanyuan is not the emperor's daughter. Why are you angry?"

"I heard that the Sixth Concubine beat you yesterday?"

"Yes, the fight is over, so Yuanyuan wants to leave the capital for a while."

"Are you willing to leave the capital at this time?" The emperor stood up and came over to pull Gu Yuanyuan up. "Your things can be sold for a lot of silver."

"Your Majesty, why don't you just sell the ownership of all the grain to the court? The court will have the right to use it to sell to other countries in the future."

"Okay, my father asked Master Fu to talk to you. Do you really not want to be my father's daughter?"

"Yuanyuan is ashamed to be the emperor's daughter. Yuanyuan is a woman of unknown origin and does not deserve this honor. As for Miaoyufang, the villa and the farm, please take them back. The emperor originally rewarded her with a princess, but Yuanyuan was not one of them, so she cannot accept these things."

"Father knows your abilities, but he wants to keep you in the capital, in Qingyang, by his side."

"Your Majesty, don't worry. Yuanyuan will not defect to other countries. Although there are no relatives of Yuanyuan here, there are people who care about Yuanyuan. Yuanyuan will definitely come back. Another thing is that Yuanyuan will never become that person's concubine even if she dies. If that woman has any plans, Yuanyuan and her will die together rather than let them succeed." Gu Yuanyuan really had this idea. At this moment, she hated her in her heart. She had harmed her for more than ten years and killed the original owner.

"No one can decide your marriage. Father also knows that no one can force you. Otherwise, both sides will be destroyed, but you will not be hurt."

"Your Highness, the Emperor and..." Eunuch Shen's voice indicated that there was someone outside.

"Let him in." The emperor's voice rose three points.

"Greetings to the Emperor, greetings to the Princess." The person who came in greeted.

"Your Highness, you are wrong. I am just a commoner. I am not worthy of being called a princess."

"She is so audacious. She came here to ask for the princess's resignation, yet she dared to disobey the order." The emperor said in a very displeased tone.

"Your Majesty, I am not a princess. Please grant my wish." Gu Yuanyuan knelt down again.

"I cannot force you. How about this? All the rewards I've given you over the years, except for the courtyard in the Princess's Mansion, you must accept everything else. Let me know that even without my protection, you won't have to suffer. That way, I won't worry about whether you have enough food to eat and warm clothes to wear. I don't want you and your abilities to go to waste. I can still use you in the future."

"Father, I suffered in the past because Yuanyuan was still young and could only be bullied by others. But now Yuanyuan has grown up and will no longer be easily bullied."

"Then you were beaten by a little concubine yesterday. What ability do you have?" The prince looked at her fiercely.

"That's because this is a palace wall. Yuanyuan didn't expect her to be so bold. She has something to save her life, and the child in her belly. Yuanyuan can't do anything to such a person."

"Are you a fool? Just standing there and letting her beat you?" The emperor felt a little disappointed.

"She was beaten once for the sake of the baby in her womb, but there won't be a second time. If she does, she won't be so lucky. Your Majesty, Yuanyuan, when you agree to Yuanyuan's request, Yuanyuan will take her leave.

"No," two voices rang out simultaneously. "Your Majesty, what I'm saying is that we can't let her leave Qingyang. She has something in her head that we can use."

"Does Prince De want to imprison me in the capital?"

"Your Majesty, I wish to marry this girl." Prince De bowed respectfully.

"No, I made it clear last time. I don't want to get married." Gu Yuanyuan refused decisively.

"What do you mean?" the emperor asked in confusion.

"She said she wanted to find a few men to spend her life with."

"How can you even say such unorthodox words? Just do it quietly, it won't be a problem. You can afford to support eight or ten handsome men. Zhuangzi's things are all obtained by you with great effort, so are you willing to throw them away?"

"Your Majesty, please give those to Your Majesty. This will complete the father-daughter relationship between us over the past two years."
