The General's Genius Daughter
Chapter 164: The Princess's Arrogant ProvocationHua Qiyue looked at the Emperor, Yun Shimo and other people coming in calmly. She noticed a girl in pink finery, with a double fairy bun. She must be Princess Qianyang.
“Here come the Emperor and the Princess…”
She was right. As a eunuch cried out, that girl in pink grand clothes came in. She was Princess Qianyang. She was about fifteen or sixteen years old. She had an oval face and attractive amorous watery eyes. Her lips were as thin as cherry petals and her skin was very good, white and smooth.
She was a lovely girl.
Hua Qiyue admitted that she would almost fall in love with her when she met such a lovely little girl.
While Princess Qianyang was looking at Yun Shimo with an infatuated eye. When she entered the door, her left foot was accidentally tripped by the high threshold. Yun Shimo, who was the closest to her, gave her a hand.
Suddenly, the girl who was as delicate as peach blossom felt shy and there were two red clouds on her beautiful face.
Hua Qiyue looked at this and suddenly felt it was a bit dazzling.
She felt unhappy faintly in her heart. “What was wrong with me? Yun Shimo just helped Princess Qianyang unconsciously.”
Princess Qianyang smiled at the crowd and walked softly towards her seat. The Concubine Xian had already come. The Emperor and Princess Qianyang were sitting beside her.
“I am Princess Qianyang. May everyone have a good time. I grew up outside when I was a child. Please tell me if there is anything I could improve!”
Princess Qianyang smiled at the crowd. She was easy-going and didn’t put on any airs, so everyone considered her generous and decent.
“Congratulations to the Emperor on finding his daughter. Princess Qianyang was generous and decent. It is indeed the blessing of our country!”
“Congratulations to the Emperor and the Concubine Xian on finding the princess!”
The crowd congratulates them and presented their gifts.
Hua Qiyue’s gift was the magic medicine, the Long Red. When she presented two Long Reds, everyone was shocked. After all, one Long Red could be sold as five hundred thousand taels of gold early.
Although it was very expensive, many wealthy Qi Artists rushed to buy, causing chaos in the city.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEveryone knew that the treasure house of Hua Qiyue could almost compare to the Royal Family’s. Now she was so generous that others all envied her.
Seeing this situation, the Emperor was very happy. He was not so wary of her as before, either. After all, she had presented two Long Reds which were worth one million taels of gold.
It was hard to buy magic medicines although he was rich. With these two Long Reds, no matter what happened to Princess Qianyang in the future, he needn’t worry about her.
“Are you Princess Jinghua, Hua Qiyue?” Although Hua Qiyue sent her the magic medicine, Princess Qianyang wasn’t very delighted.
She stared at the woman sitting beside Ji Jing. Indeed, she was the prettiest one here and her temperament was extraordinary. It could find that she was extraordinary easily.
She was in white, with an indifferent expression. There was no compliment to Princess Qianyang on her face at all.
Hua Qiyue stood up, nodding her head lightly and answering, “Yes, Your Highness, I’m Hua Qiyue.”
Suddenly, there was a kind of displeasure in Princess Qianyang’s heart. Thinking of her Senior Sister of the Heaven Sect was beaten by her and she didn’t hand in the divine weapon she got to the Royal family, Princess Qianyang was angry.
Additionally, she was the fiancee of Yun Shimo, and they would marry soon. So there was a terrible thought in Princess Qianyang’s mind—She wished Hua Qiyue could disappear from this world.
“You are the Hua Qiyue of the legendary. Well, you are pretty, but you’re too arrogant. Did you remember that several days ago, the Grounded Conductor of the Heaven Sect was seriously beat by you? So that even she came to the capital, she didn’t dare to come out to attend my banquet, but could only sit in the guest hall!” Princess Qianyang said coldly, causing chaos on the spot.
Everyone knew that the Heaven Sect was a highly prestigious sect in the Changjing Kingdom. It was the benefactor of the Princess. Now, there must be a show to see.
“Doesn’t Princess Qianyang inquire about the cause of the incident?” Hua Qiyue answered indifferently.
When the Changlong Emperor saw this, he coughed lightly, suggesting that she should stop talking. He knew that if Princess Qianyang kept questioning, it would damage the reputation of the Heaven Sect.
“Humph, I know that you are so arrogant.” Princess Qianyang glanced at Hua Qiyue scornfully with cold eyes, just as a nobel master looked at the wrongdoer.
Hua Qiyue just smiled slightly. Changlong Emperor quickly said with a laugh, “Don’t be angry, infanta. She is young and ignorant so her words were offensive. I hope you won’t take it seriously.”
The Concubine Xian also apologized to her. “Yes, Qianyang is still young, and she doesn’t know the reason. After all, Heaven Sect has helped her, and it’s reasonable for her to be excited.”
Although Princess Qianyang returned to the palace for just a month, the Emperor and the Concubine Xian spoiled her very much. How could they ever ignore her feelings? So she was more resentful.
“Your Majesty and Father, Mother, Princess Jinghua is a talent, but it doesn’t mean that she can be so bold!” Princess Qianyang said angrily.
Tianci’s face was gloomy. And Ji Feng and others were unhappy too. Then Tianci murmured firstly, “Oh, do you mean that little devil? She took my ears and scratched my face when we first met. If dad and mom saved me later, I’m afraid I would be killed by her!”
When people heard his words, they immediately marveled at Hongyi’s cruelty.
Then Princess Qianyang stared at Tianci coldly. The little boy also raised his eyebrows and stared at her bravely.
The Changlong Emperor’s heart sank slightly. He was only a small child. But he had such momentum now. He would be uninhibited after growing up!
Hua Qiyue would marry Yun Shimo soon, then they would be more powerful. They could be comparable to all the Qi Artists of the Royal family even if they were only two or three people!
That was to say, their unification could absolutely mean a change in the Changjing Kingdom’s Royal family!
“Tianci was right. If we hadn’t saved him in time, Hongyi would have killed him. Although I live in the capital, I know a lot of secrets about Heaven Sect. Are you clear about them, Princess Qianyang?” Hua Qiyue said in a faint way, facing Princess Qianyang’s eyes without fear.
Princess Qianyang was shocked. Hua Qiyue wasn’t afraid of her, which made her really at a loss.
She also knew that Hongyi acted like a tyrant and killed people freely. However, the fifth venerable master told her that Hongyi was the chief in the future because her birth flourished Heaven Sect.
She also said that Hongyi must be a powerful chief in ten years. So Princess Qianyang didn’t dislike her that much as before.
“Qianyang, you’ve drunk too much. Stop talking now!” Changlong Emperor ordered her coldly. She glanced at Hua Qiyue unhappily and sat down very unwillingly.
The Concubine Xian looked at the Changlong Emperor anxiously. She knew that Hua Qiyue was a Qi Artist he had thought highly of. Now Princess Qianyang offended her. Would she lose his favor?
In fact, in the Changlong Emperor’s heart, there was only discontent with Hua Qiyue.
Princess Qianyang was his daughter he got back after so many years, but Hua Qiyue didn’t fear or respect her at all. Moreover, she made her lose face in the public.
Emperor Changlong’s discontent with Hua Qiyue increased slowly, although he remained relaxed on the surface. But Hua Qiyue also knew that the Emperor began to suspect her.
She was discerning. She would read others’ minds with an exchange of a glance.
From the beginning to the end, Yun Shimo kept silence. Ji Feng was not the party, so naturally, he couldn’t help Hua Qiyue.
But Yun Shimo was! His silence made Hua Qiyue feel very disappointed in him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBlinking, Tianci whispered something in Ji Feng’s ear. After Ji Feng’s approval, he ran back to Hua Qiyue.
“Mom, do you think that the little enchantress would also come? I heard that she is the benefactor chief of this Princess.”
Tianci asked her seriously. Hua Qiyue nodded with a smile and said, “Maybe she will come. But she was hurt seriously by me. I think she doesn’t dare to show up.”
Tianci laughed and his big eyes were full of cunning, “Humph, she must have said something bad about mom. Otherwise, why could this silly Princess talk to you like that?” Tianci pouted his small mouth and said sullenly.
Ji Jing was also furious, saying, “You’re right. Hongyi must have said bad things in front of the Princess, otherwise, it would not be like that. The Princess Qianyang is also not a good person for spreading those rumors everywhere!”
Hua Qiyue glanced at Princess Qianyang sitting above calmly. She was also looking at her coldly too. Hua Qiyue raised her eyebrows to her with a trace of indifference in her eyes.
She was so calm that she dissatisfied Princess Qianyang even more.
“People know about justice and they’ll know who the bad guy is in the end.”
“I heard that infanta had got a divine weapon called Drunken Flower Fan. Could you show it to me?” Princess Qianyang spoke again. She was smiling with a murderous look in her eyes.
“Princess Qianyang, the divine weapon that Qiyue got happened to be in my mansion. I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed this time.” Someone said flatly. It was Yun Shimo.
There was a bright light in his dark pupils. They were like the stars in the night, which were hypnotizing.
His voice was light but very pleasant, intoxicating Princess Qianyang.
“Oh, it doesn’t matter. How about going to your mansion tomorrow morning to have a look at it?” Princess Qianyang asked.
Yun Shimo kept a straight face. He looked at Hua Qiyue and said, “Tomorrow… I have to refine medicine tomorrow. I’m afraid that I have no time to accompany you.”
He refused her. But when Yun Shimo spoke them, people found it hard to get angry. Hua Qiyue wondered in her heart because she didn’t expect that he would help her.
She grabbed the divine weapon with so much toil. How would she show it to the princess casually? If the princess liked it at first sight, she would be in a dilemma of whether to gift it or not.
“It doesn’t matter. We still have so many chances.” Princess Qianyang laughed. She looked at Hua Qiyue with a provocative light in her eyes.
Changlong Emperor laughed happily, “It seems that the Prince Nan and the Princess have a good relationship. By the way, three days later, Qianyang will go to the Fortune Temple to worship the image of Buddha. She was an apprentice of the Heaven Sect before. Many evil sects want to attack Heaven Sect. So I’m worried that Qianyang will be hurt. But since Prince Nan is here tonight, please escort her. If you accompany her, I wouldn’t worry about a thing.”
As soon as the emperor’s words came out, the people were secretly surprised. Yun Shimo was about to marry Hua Qiyue. Why did the Emperor let him escort the princess?
