A Cutie Spoiled by Her Seven Uncles Chapter 152: The National Treasury of His Majesty is Tight A

"Pan’Er, I’m telling you, I want to inform Mother that I intend to take you as a concubine. You and Yingying are cousins. I—I’ll marry both of you sisters and bring you into my household at the sa ti. Pan’Er, what do you say to that?"

Xie Pan’Er was so furious her chest heaved. She raised her hand and slapped Lu Yunsheng hard across the face.

This scene stunned the young Emperor.

Xiaosuisui’s mouth gaped open. Her beautiful sister was already stunning, but she looked even more striking when she was angry.

"Emperor Father, what does it an to marry two sisters into the household at the sa ti?" the little girl asked, her curiosity piqued again.

The young Emperor hushed her. "Hush, darling. Your Emperor Father wants to see which family this thick-skinned, shaless young man belongs to."

Xiaosuisui imdiately clapped a hand over her mouth and listened to the beautiful sister’s furious shouts.

"Lu Yunsheng, who do you think you are? Marry as a concubine? On what grounds? Am I, Xie Pan’Er, so worthless? I am a well-bred young lady from a prominent family. Why wouldn’t I properly consider suitable prospects to beco a principal wife? Have I lost my mind that I’d want to beco your concubine?"

"Pan’Er, you... you hit ? Do you have any idea what you’re doing? Your Xie Family is currently begging our Lu Family. Not only do you not try to curry favor with , but you even dare to slap . Does your Xie Family still want things to go well for them?"

Lu Yunsheng’s incredulous voice carried over. From the young Emperor’s vantage point, he could faintly see the shock and anger on Lu Yunsheng’s face.

"Our Xie Family? Lu Yunsheng, you’re banking on the fact that I would compromise for the sake of my clan, aren’t you? Is that why you can shalessly stand here today and propose to take as a concubine?"

"Hmph! Xie Pan’Er, I thought you were a clever one. These past few days, I’ve been speaking kindly to you, coaxing you, indulging you. I’m warning you, you’d better obediently agree. Otherwise, I don’t care if you care about the Lu Family, but whether your parents can live peacefully under the Lu Family’s roof—that depends on a single word from !"

Lu Yunsheng’s deanor changed faster than one could flip a page. After saying this, he left, ignoring Xie Pan’Er, whose face was etched with sha, indignation, shock, and unwillingness.

"Lu Yunsheng, don’t push too far! Otherwise, even if it ans mutual destruction, don’t even think about succeeding!" Xie Pan’Er shouted at Lu Yunsheng’s retreating figure.

Then, she squatted down, holding her head and sobbing.

The young Emperor held Xiaosuisui, his feelings complicated for a mont.

"Emperor Father, that beautiful big sister is crying so pitifully!"

The young Emperor looked at her. "Do you like her?"

Xiaosuisui tilted her head, thought for a mont, and said, "Beautiful sisters should be cherished and doted upon!"

The young Emperor didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. "Who taught you these absurd notions?"

"My third aunt! She told my eldest aunt that the reason she wasn’t angry, even though my third uncle left her in the countryside for two or three years without bringing her back, was because my third uncle is just too handso. According to her, when it cos to a handso man, her principle is to have no principles; she must cherish him and dote on him."

The young Emperor was speechless. What kind of people are these Ji Family mbers, really?

But what did the third son of the Ji Family do for a living? He’d forgotten.

He recalled hearing that when the third Ji son was very young, his handso face was renowned throughout the Capital City.

"Your Majesty! It’s getting late. You and the Princess should return to the Imperial Carriage!" A secret guard suddenly appeared, kneeling at the young Emperor’s feet, urging him to return to the Imperial Carriage.

The young Emperor glanced at the sky. It was indeed getting late. Without a word, he turned and headed back the way they ca.

Once back on the Imperial Carriage, the young Emperor had the little girl stay and summoned Ji Youzhi.

"Youzhi, are you familiar with the Xie Family and the Lu Family in the Capital City?"

Ji Youzhi asked in surprise, "Your Majesty, is the National Treasury strained again? Or are you planning to recruit troops once more but lack the military funds?"
