The Eldest Daughter Reborn: She Provoked the Obsessive Crown Prince and Couldn't Escape

When Fu Luan saw the Emperor's fury, she thought all her efforts since her rebirth had been in vain.

Seeing that things had taken a turn for the better, she quickly said, "This humble woman is willing to listen to Your Majesty's teachings. Please enlighten me!"

"What advice could I possibly give you? I just hope you think this through carefully, so you don't waste this great opportunity and regret it later!"

"After all... there are precedents before us." The Emperor made a pointed remark.

Others didn't understand the meaning of his words and just thought he was giving a casual remark.

Seeing that the Emperor was not truly angry with Fu Luan, he lost interest.

Fu Luan knew in her heart that the Emperor was referring to her marriage with Yuan Lu, which had already ended.

Fu Luan kowtowed repeatedly, "Thank you for reminding me, Your Majesty. But Your Majesty, this matter was not a spur-of-the-moment decision."

"From the day I left the Eastern Palace, I swore an oath to rescue Xiao Jiu! I beg Your Majesty to grant my request!"

The Emperor played with the two-tone tourmaline and jadeite bracelet, speechless for a moment;

Even Yang Jin, the chief eunuch who had served him since childhood, had no idea what he was thinking at that moment.

After a long silence, the Emperor smiled and said, "Your wish...I grant it! Little Jiu is a naturally lovable child."

"Consider this ordeal as a trial. Yang Jin, convey my decree to release Yuan Jiu."

"Send people to clean up the Ninth Prince's residence. Let's not bring up the past again! Whoever slaps whom gets their mouth shut, do you hear me?"

"Yes..." Yang Jin received the order and hurriedly went out to carry out the task.

Fu Luan returned to his seat, but he was somewhat sullen and had no interest in watching the ensuing song and dance performances.

"Don't worry, once the mourning period for the Noble Consort is over, you can have the Ninth Prince ask the Emperor for your hand in marriage."

"Are you still worried about him not getting back his position as crown prince? But you! No wonder you sent me away, so that's what you were planning!"

"Next time something like this happens, tell your brother in advance. We're all family. Do you think we wouldn't help you if you just act cute?" Fu Che scolded him, but his heart was full of heartache.

Knowing his sister had worked hard, he personally poured her a glass of wine.

Fu Luan took the wine, but simply placed it gently on the table. "Third Brother, about what happened just now..."

It turned out that before Fu Lu went on stage, he saw Yuan Lu's attendant having a secret conversation with a palace lady. Seeing that there was no time to find out more, he asked Fu Che for help.

Firstly, it allows us to "know ourselves and our enemy," to understand what Yuan Lu is up to; secondly...

He was using this as an excuse to get Fu Che away so that he could go on stage and win the championship.

She had originally planned another method, but this one was a perfect "killing two birds with one stone".

"The person talking to the attendant of the Prince of Youbeiping was Li Sizhen from the Bureau of Military Affairs. As for what they were discussing..."

"It's nothing more than the treasures presented by the Western Regions this time, and the return gifts from the Great Wei... nothing special."

"You've spent some time in the palace, so you should know better than I do."

“Right, ‘Royal Daughter-in-Law’?” Fu Che had barely finished speaking when Fu Luan tapped him with her chopsticks.

"You're talking nonsense! As an older brother, you can't even keep your mouth shut," Fu Luan muttered.

After the brother and sister played for a while, Fu Luan felt strange: "The tribute from foreign countries should be handed over to the Grand Herald by the envoys of the Western Regions first."

"Only after both parties confirm that there are no errors and the inventory is completed will it enter the Shanggong Bureau, where it will be kept and used by the Sizhen Division."

"What does he want with the lady-in-waiting at this moment?"

As the two were talking, Yang Jin returned to the Emperor's side, whispered something to him, and hurriedly left.

Seeing that he had sought out the Imperial Physician, Fu Luan guessed that he was going to treat Yuan Lu's leg.

She left her seat with a cold face, and Hua Luo and Fu Ling quickly followed.

Although she didn't intend for Fu Ling to treat Yuan Lu's leg, well...

Having Poria cocos is indeed useful.

"Ouch! Ouch!" The three of them, master and servant, quietly hid outside the door, listening to Yuan Lu's pig-like screams through the doors and windows. Fu Luan felt extremely pleased.

"This is only the right leg... I'll make you taste the pain of having all four limbs severed sooner or later!" Fu Luan thought to himself.

After applying the medicine to Yuan Lu, the imperial physician instructed him, "Prince of Youbeiping, remember not to eat cold, hot, or irritating foods..."

"If you can't eat cold food, and you can't eat hot food, what else can you eat?"

"You quack doctor, I'm going to make my father... Ouch! It hurts so much!" Yuan Lu cursed from inside.

This is the true essence of Yuanlu...

He would shout loudly and vulgarly whenever something happened, just like Fu Luan's father, who was a son-in-law.

Fu Luan only regrets that she was blind in her previous life and was deceived by Yuan Lu's pretense of being a gentleman and gentle and refined man!

"Could it be that Mother was also deceived by Father for the same reason back then?" Fu Luan sighed inwardly.

The imperial physician patiently explained to Yuan Lu that "cold and warm are not what they are usually described," and then hurriedly left with his medicine chest and apprentice.

Yuan Lu was still inside, spewing vulgarities; the Imperial Physician sighed and shook his head as he walked away.

Fu Luan hurriedly stepped forward, "The Imperial Physician looks unwell. Is it Yuan Lu... or the Prince of Youbeiping? Is something wrong?"

"This... I'm afraid I have no comment." Although the Imperial Physician was scolded by Yuan Lu, he was still unhappy.

But he was, after all, a doctor and a fourth-rank official, so he kept his mouth shut.

Fu Luan's eyes darted around, she deliberately sighed, and then took out a handkerchief to cover her mouth.

Her tears came easily, her clear eyes overflowing like a spring, "The Imperial Physician knows, Yuan..."

"The Prince of Youbeiping was my former husband. Although we were separated by villains, our marriage ended in a peaceful divorce."

"But after all, 'even a day as husband and wife is worth a hundred days of kindness'!"

Fu Luan cried intermittently, "As the saying goes, 'It takes a hundred years of cultivation to share a boat ride, and a thousand years to share a pillow.'"

"Although the commoner and the prince have only been in love for a few months, how can the feelings between husband and wife be severed so easily?"

"Hearing of the prince's injury, this humble woman is heartbroken; the singing and dancing at the banquet are like those of puppets; the delicacies on the table taste like wax..."

"Imperial Physician, please have pity on this humble woman and tell me about the Prince's injuries!"

The Imperial Physician also had a little girl of similar age to Fu Luan at home, so he couldn't bear to see a little girl of that age shed tears.

Furthermore, moved by Fu Luan's "deep affection" for her ex-husband, he couldn't help but sigh: "The story of Miss Fu and the Prince has spread throughout the palace and beyond."

"The young lady has really had a tough time! Even after all this, she's still thinking of the prince..."

Fu Luan thought to himself, "Since the Imperial Physician said so, it seems that the good-for-nothing didn't expose me."

"As for what he really is up to... we'll find out after we go in and test him a few times!"

"This old minister, if I may speak frankly, has found that by divorcing the prince after this incident, the young lady has actually escaped her misery..."

"The prince... not only did he break his leg, but the entire bone in his ankle joint is damaged. It looks like..."

"It was smashed! Miss Fu is young and beautiful, comes from a distinguished family, and has the ancestral precepts of the Great Wei Dynasty as her guarantee;

"It's not hard to marry a rich and powerful man, why bother staying with someone like that... sigh!" The Imperial Physician continued to ramble on.

He noticed that Fu Luan would occasionally cover her face with a handkerchief, and assumed that she was feeling sorry for Yuan Lu. Who could have guessed that she was secretly laughing behind the handkerchief?

Fu Luan asked, sobbing, "What... what are you guarding? Imperial Physician, please tell me! I'm so worried!"
