Chapter 833: Chapter 492: Taking Office in Liangzhou!
“Yes, your servant obeys.”
As long as there was a requirent, the rest was easy to find, although she did not know why the Noble Consort suddenly wanted this thing. However, she would just follow orders and dared not ask more.
Watching Qing’er’s figure disappearing into the distance, Yang Guifei sat at the top, massaging her temple. Ever since she left the Chen Residence last night, every ti she closed her eyes, she thought of those scenes.
Simply unbearable, an insult to refinent.
In the end, she could only find a way to see things to think of people.
Letting out a long breath of turbid air, Yang Guifei’s gaze turned towards outside the palace, seemingly seeing the back figure of Chen Yuan leaving, even smiling at her while leaving.
Her fingers traced her cheek as Yang Guifei closed her eyes.
The cheek she was touching was precisely the half face that Chen Yuan had slapped at the Shuanghe Temple. Now, it was completely deflated, but she felt as if it had left a mark in her heart.
Wanting to forget but unable to, it was only after Sima Ke said those things yesterday that she inexplicably slipped out of the Harem.
It’s a pity that Chen Yuan didn’t slap her again last night.
Princess Pingyang’s Mansion.
Princess Pingyang frowned slightly, looking at her brother before her with a slightly displeased look, and asked coldly:
“Why did you co here? If you have the ti, wouldn’t it be better to read a few more books and practice so martial arts?”
Sima Ke gave an embarrassed smile:
“Please do not bla , Royal Sister. I just missed you and ca to visit.”
“You’ve seen , now leave.”
Princess Pingyang said lightly.
“We are siblings of the sa mother, Royal Sister, you shouldn’t dislike so much, should you?” Sima Ke spoke with so displeasure.
Princess Pingyang gazed at Sima Ke without saying much.
Sima Ke, after a mont of silence, broke the heavy quiet, saying:
“Royal Sister, Chen the Green Envoy… left today.”
“What, are you still thinking of dealing with this person?”
Princess Pingyang raised an eyebrow.
Sima Ke shook his head repeatedly:
“After the lesson before, how could I still target this person?”
“Then why are you concerned about him?”
“Actually, I am concerned for Royal Sister.” Sima Ke continued.
“Hmm?”
“I know Royal Sister is proud and unwilling to marry a diocre person, which has resulted in this delay until now. Every ti I think of it, I worry greatly. Yesterday I suddenly thought of a very suitable candidate, so I specifically ca to ask Royal Sister’s opinion.”
Regarding what Chen Yuan said before, Sima Ke did not listen at all, in his view, his Royal Sister Pingyang was stunningly beautiful, with Chen Yuan’s personality, it was impossible for him not to desire her, but he was just too proud to say it outright.
But he understood it in his heart.
So, today he ca specially to see Royal Sister, even if it wasn’t possible now, he had to make a deeper impression. Later, if it really worked out, having his Royal Sister Pingyang,
and brother-in-law Chen Yuan assisting him, why worry about not securing the Crown Prince’s position?
At worst, he still had his mother and consort Yang Guifei, and his pseudo-father Chen the Green Envoy to help, with such a combination of forces, he was sure Chen Yuan would help him wholeheartedly!
Princess Pingyang stared at Sima Ke, coldly saying:
“This matter is not for you to worry about. Don’t ntion it again in the future, or don’t bla Royal Sister for being unkind and not letting you enter the Princess Mansion.”
“Royal Sister doesn’t want to hear who the candidate is?”
“Not interested.”
“It’s Chen Yuan, the forr Demon Blade, now the Golden Envoy of Liangzhou, Chen Yuan! His talent is unparalleled in the world, his appearance is magnificent, his ability outstanding, only such a person in my humble opinion is worthy of Royal Sister.”
Sima Ke imdiately blurted out.
“So what?” Princess Pingyang’s eyes flickered, then she added:
“Weren’t you at odds with Chen Yuan? Yet now, you speak such words, do you intend to have help you against Chen the Green Envoy?”
“Of course not, as the saying goes, it’s better to resolve enmity than to keep it. Chen Yuan is too difficult to deal with, how could I risk my life against him? Such a powerful ally, I couldn’t make friends with him fast enough, why would I use Royal Sister?”
Sima Ke quickly explained.
Princess Pingyang lifted her head, her expression still calm:
“Do not ntion this again, my affairs need not concern you. If you truly wish to vie for the Crown Prince’s position, then firmly and steadily build your own foundation. Don’t think of relying on anyone else’s power,
in the court, who has the grandest royal lineage?
As long as you earn Father Emperor’s favor, there’s no need to win over anyone, and you’ll still be able to stabilize the situation.”
“Royal Sister, I…”
“Enough, I am weary, you should leave first.”
Princess Pingyang directly issued a dismissal command.
For this brother, she was increasingly sowhat disgusted, especially after guessing the backstory of the simple ‘Lady Shu incident’ before.
She was utterly unwilling to have any deeper contact with him.
This child is not fit for great responsibilities!
Sima Ke’s face turned a mix of blue and white but seeing Princess Pingyang’s indifferent expression, he didn’t dare say more, only apologizing once and turning to leave.
After he had completely left, Princess Pingyang finally spoke in a deep voice:
“What has happened?”
Behind the screen, a figure knelt on one knee, bowing and saying:
“Reporting to Your Highness, I discovered so traces of No-Life Sect Demons inside the Imperial City unexpectedly.”
“No-Life Sect Demons.”
Princess Pingyang’s face imdiately turned incredibly serious:
“Has this matter been thoroughly investigated?”
“Not yet clear, but there are traces of their activities. I worry sothing might happen, so I ca to report to Your Highness specially.”
“It seems the prior troubles stirred up by the Taoist Divine Palace in the Imperial City have made these demons impatient as well.” Princess Pingyang’s face flashed a hint of minute killing intent.
“What does Your Highness think we should do?”
Princess Pingyang’s fingers continually tapped on the table, pondering for a long ti before instructing:
“Reveal this matter to the Heavenly Patrol Bureau and the Imperial Supervision Bureau, such things are for them to handle.”
“Yes, I understand.”
“Alright, you may withdraw.”
“Your servant takes leave.”
The shadow bowed and retreated, disappearing without a trace in an instant.
Princess Pingyang sat in place, contemplating for a long ti, finally slowly picking up a pen and writing a few verses on the paper in front of her.
“In the world of rising clouds and storms, our generation erges. Once entering Jianghu, ti hastens. Ambitions and phenoms amidst laughter, unable to surpass a drunken dream in the Human World!”
Then, she wrote two words beside it.
“Chen Yuan!”
Looking at the poem before her, Princess Pingyang’s gaze was deep, her thoughts unknown.
