The Divine Doctor and Adorable Consort: The Demonic Emperor is Too Cunning

Although Emperor Mingde did not give her any substantial reward, he did issue an imperial edict of reward.

Besides, she didn't go to the south for these rewards in the first place.

A procession of tall white horses, with palace guards leading the way, accompanied by the deafening sound of gongs and drums, created a lively and extraordinary atmosphere.

This whole scene gave her the feeling of being a top scholar returning home in glory.

In any case, this is a great honor, and she should show that she is very happy.

To put it another way, given such a great opportunity to show off, she naturally wants to put on a good show and let those people see.

The group's destination was the Fang residence, and Fang Qingyou wore a bright smile throughout the journey.

Yes, if those people saw her glamorous appearance today, they would be so angry they'd be speechless.

A fleeting sadness crossed Zhou Shi's mind.

The poor original owner could never experience such glory, otherwise her life wouldn't have seemed so tragic.

However, now that I have become her, I will strive to make their lives better.

At the same time, a cold glint flashed in the depths of his eyes.

She didn't like the Fang residence, but since she was destined to go there, she naturally wasn't afraid.

At that time, she wanted to see who would dare to bully the Ren family again.

The Fang family had obviously received the news long ago, and before the imperial edict arrived, the whole family was already waiting outside the mansion.

Fang Qingyou lifted a crack in the side curtain of the sedan chair and looked out. She saw Old Master Fang standing at the front of the Fang family's group, his old face beaming with joy.

Behind Old Master Fang was Fang Xing'an, that old scumbag, with a smirking face that looked sticky and disgusting.

Beside Fang Xing'an was Zhou, who appeared dignified and calm.

No matter how Fang Qingyou looked at these people, she felt that they were all hypocrites who appeared respectable on the surface, but were filthy and rotten inside, making her feel disgusted.

"By the grace of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: Fang Qingyou, the fifth daughter of the Fang family, is of exceptional intelligence and virtue, possesses superb medical skills, and is a kind and compassionate person... She has rendered meritorious service in quelling the insect plague in the south, and is hereby granted the title of Princess of Ping'an County. This is the imperial decree!"

Hearing this long string of adjectives praising her, Fang Qingyou could accept the beginning, but when she heard the end, she became very doubtful. Could all these beautiful adjectives really be used to describe her?

Previously, she only knew that Emperor Mingde had issued an imperial edict to reward her, but she did not expect that these words would make her feel a little embarrassed.

I don't know where Emperor Mingde found so many adjectives.

However, her doubts were quickly interrupted by the Fang family's chorus of thanks.

"Thank you for your gracious favor, Your Majesty! Long live the Emperor!"

That voice was truly loud and clear.

Fang Qingyou's lips twitched involuntarily. She seriously doubted whether the few people from the Fang family had been trained beforehand.

Unintentionally, she discovered the truth again.

The group of people from the Fang family had indeed practiced, and they had been practicing ever since they received the news. Only when they learned that the imperial decree and its procession were about to arrive at the Fang residence did they hurriedly come out to wait.

Fang Qingyou's gaze fell upon the plaque above the Fang residence, and upon seeing the enormous vermilion characters, her expression gradually darkened.

Before, this place was just another place to her, but from today onwards, it will be her home.

She didn't want to stay here, but only by staying here could she find the murderer who killed the original owner of the body.

Thinking of the news she received a few days ago, Fang Qingyou's eyes grew even colder.

This grudge has been brewing for so long; it's time to settle it and give the original owner an explanation.

Once everything has settled down, she will leave this temporary place of refuge.

Only then can she be herself without any worries.

"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty! Long live the Emperor!" Fang Qingyou knelt down with everyone else, her head bowed so that no one could see what was in her eyes.

Fang Qingyou was actually a little depressed. She disliked kneeling the most. In this cold weather, she had already knelt several times today, and now she had to do it again.

However, when she stood up to receive the imperial decree, a smile returned to her face.

"Princess Ping'an, please receive the imperial decree!" The eunuch smiled gently as he handed the imperial decree to Fang Qingyou.

"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty." Fang Qingyou immediately bowed to the imperial edict again before accepting it with both hands.

With a beaming smile, Old Master Fang gestured to the eunuch delivering the imperial decree, "Eunuch Luo, thank you for your hard work. Please come in!"

Eunuch Luo smiled and said, "Lord Fang, you're too kind. This is all I should do."

Despite saying that, she still walked into the Fang residence with Fang Xing'an.

Fang Xing'an followed closely behind with a broad smile.

As soon as the three left, Fang Qingyou immediately became the center of attention.

Or perhaps these people's focus had always been on Fang Qingyou, but they just hadn't dared to look at her before. Everyone knew that Eunuch Luo was a favorite of the Emperor, and although he was just a eunuch, they didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of him.

"You'er, congratulations! Your mother is so proud of you for receiving the Emperor's reward. But even though you've become a county princess, you must not be arrogant." Madam Zhou looked at Fang Qingyou with a loving mother's expression, and began to warn her after only praising her once.

Although she wore a smile, her eyes held a cold, icy hatred.

Her displeasure was so obvious that Fang Qingyou couldn't help but notice it.

Therefore, her expression became even brighter, even carrying a hint of pride: "I will follow Mother's teachings."

Zhou called her "You'er" in a stiff voice, while Fang Qingyou called her "Mother" in a sweet and soft voice, which made Zhou frown.

That little bitch must have done it on purpose. It gave her goosebumps all over and made her feel nauseous.

Fang Qingyou was indeed doing it on purpose, deliberately trying to disgust Zhou Shi. Now, seeing Zhou Shi's expression, her smile became even brighter.

"Congratulations, Fifth Sister."

Congratulations, Fifth Sister!

The young masters and ladies of the Fang family also stepped forward to congratulate Fang Qingyou, some with indifferent expressions, while others were all smiles.

Fang Qingman snorted coldly, gave Fang Qingyou a cold look, and then helped Zhou Shi into the Fang residence.

Fang Qingyou didn't care about the attitudes of the others, because she had never considered them as family.

To her, these people were nothing more than people she had to deal with but who were dispensable.

If you don't care, you naturally won't take it to heart.

After offering their symbolic congratulations to Fang Qingyou, everyone returned to the Fang residence.

Only Fang Qingyun took her arm affectionately: "Fifth Sister, let's go!"

Fang Qingyou did not reject Fang Qingyun's advances, smiled slightly at her, and entered the Fang residence.
