Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 393
Chapter 393 County Princess Anping
For several days, Rong Jin would spend the night in Yun Xiao’s room every night. However, the two of them only slept and nothing else happened.
Of course, Yun Xiao’s eyes hadn’t started to heal. Although Rong Jin had already obtained the herbs to treat eye diseases, he was not familiar with the Seven Leaves One Branch Flower after all. Moreover, he had only obtained one of these herbs, so Rong Jin didn’t want to waste it. He had been studying how to use the herbs for the past few days.
On this day, before leaving, Rong Jin said to Rong Jin, “I have prepared a surprise for you today. You will definitely like it.”
However, Yun Xiao asked a few times, but she didn’t know what the surprise was, so she didn’t ask anymore. Anyway, since she said it was today, it shouldn’t be long before she found out.
Not long after Rong Jin left, Qiushuang, who was beside Madam Lu, came to the Rose Courtyard and respectfully said to Yun Xiao, “Young lady, Eunuch Wei from the Imperial Palace has come. He said that he received the order of the Jin Emperor to invite the young lady into the Imperial Palace.”
As long as someone from the imperial palace invited the young lady into the palace, nothing good would happen. Especially now, when the Jin Emperor’s body was not fully recovered, who knew what would happen if he asked the young lady to enter the palace?
Although the Yun Family did not want Yun Xiao to enter the palace, they could not stop him.
Hearing that the Jin Emperor had announced that Yun Xiao had entered the palace to grant her a marriage, the Yun Family finally felt a little relieved.
Emperor Jin had given Yun Xiao a marriage, and Yun Xiao really needed to enter the palace to thank him.
Yun Xiao changed her clothes and followed Eunuch Wei into the palace. When she arrived at the entrance of the imperial palace, the carriage stopped. A familiar voice sounded from outside, “Greetings Eunuch Wei.”
This voice was actually Rong Jin, who had only left from him this morning.
Why did he also enter the palace? However, thinking that it was for the wedding, Yun Xiao’s mind also calmed down. She got off the carriage with the help of the maidservant and felt a line of sight looking over. Yun Xiao nodded in the direction of the line of sight and walked towards Eunuch Wei with the help of the maidservant.
Eunuch Wei was delighted with the two of them and said a few more words. Only then did he enter the palace with Eunuch Wei. Originally, he was still persistent, but now, the moment he saw Rong Jin, he was really calm.
With Rong Jin by her side, she felt much more at ease.
He entered the palace speechlessly. This time, he still went to the Jin Emperor’s dormitory, the Spring Fortune Palace. What surprised Yun Xiao was that this time, the Jin Emperor announced that the two of them had come in not only to let the two of them thank him for his kindness, but also to summon an imperial edict, giving Yun Xiao a rank two county princess title.
Yun Xiao was a little stunned and didn’t react. Jin Huang gave her the title of county princess? Why did she feel that the meaning was becoming more and more unusual?
In her previous life, even if she married Zhou Jingyan, she didn’t give the title of county princess. In this life, she didn’t seem to have done anything. Why did she lose the title of county princess?
Yun Xiao stood there in a daze. For a moment, she had forgotten to thank him. Her face was slightly red. Qing Mo pulled her down before she knelt down. However, Yun Xiao did not say anything. In front of outsiders, she pretended that she could not hear anything and could not speak.
Rong Jin looked at Yun Xiao, a strange look flashing through his eyes. He looked at the Jin Emperor lying on the bed again, a trace of complexity flashing through his black eyes.
The Jin Emperor would definitely not give Yunxiao the title of county princess out of thin air. What exactly did this mean?
Even if Rong Jin was usually smart, he wouldn’t be able to guess.
The Jin Emperor said with a loving expression, “This time, it was you and Rong Jin who saved my life. It is only right that you should be given the title of county princess. By giving county princess An Ping to Rong Jin, I have given him the greatest reward. May I know if you are satisfied with this reward?” Yun Xiao’s title was county princess An Ping.
Although Rong Jin was dissatisfied with the reward used by the Jin Emperor, he still said, “Thank you, Your Majesty.”
Jin Huang looked at Yun Xiao and said softly, “I wonder if county princess An Ping’s eyes have any good methods of diagnosis and treatment these past few days?”
Rong Jin immediately said respectfully, “Reporting to His Majesty, no. However, recently, the people found out that there was a divine doctor who was extremely talented in treating eye diseases. He planned to bring County Lord An Ping to seek a doctor in a few days, and ask His Majesty for favor.”
When Yun Xiao heard Rong Jin’s words, her brows furrowed. Is there such a thing? Why didn’t Rong Jin tell her?
However, Yun Xiao did not interrupt Rong Jin’s words. She quietly listened. Yun Xiao definitely did not want to leave the capital at this time, but she did not want Rong Jin to lose face.
After returning, he would properly interrogate Rong Jin about what had happened.
The Jin Emperor looked at the two of them with great interest before saying, “Is there such a miraculous doctor?”
“Yes!” Rong Jin replied respectfully, and a trace of silence appeared in his dark eyes.
When the Jin Emperor saw Rong Jin being so resolute, a strange look flashed through his weather-beaten eyes. He said loudly, “Alright, since you are so determined, I will allow you to do so.”
When the Jin Emperor said this, a dangerous arc flashed in his eyes, but he concealed it well.
Ever since Yun Xiao said those words to him that day, he had finally investigated for a long time before he found out that the person who poisoned him was the Fifth Prince, Zhou Chongyu. He was extremely furious, but after this time, his vigilance towards the other princes became stronger and stronger.
In addition, when she heard that Yun Xiao was very close to Crown Prince Zhou Jingchen some time ago, she was furious in her heart.
He originally thought that Yun Xiao was unwilling to marry Zhou Jingyan because she had feelings for Rong Jin, but he didn’t expect that she would go so far with Zhou Jingchen, which made him a little overly worried.
Crown Prince Zhou Jingchen’s status was very high, but because he was very high, the Jin Emperor was also slightly afraid.
If Zhou Jingchen married a powerful Crown Princess and then married Yun Xiao, he would be rich and powerful. At that time, his status would be threatened.
To put it bluntly, as an emperor, the Jin Emperor was afraid of all the princes. If the Crown Prince’s power was high, he would be suppressed.
Although he would pass the throne to the Crown Prince in a hundred years, he was still alive, so this throne could only belong to him.
It was his item, he could reward it or give it to someone else, but he definitely wouldn’t allow anyone to snatch it from his hands! This was also a human’s weakness!
That was why he was in a hurry to marry Yun Xiao to Rong Jin. However, if the Yun Clan’s wealth and Rong Jin’s wealth were combined, it would make people a little afraid.
As for a royal merchant who was not valued by others, if he wanted to establish himself in the capital, he would definitely have to get along well with the upper echelons. Or rather, he would have to rope in a prince so that the Yun Clan could have a backer in the capital.
However, now that the Jin Emperor had given Yun Xiao the status of county princess, he had already shown his attitude. He could favor the Yun Clan and make them noble in the capital, but he could also trample the Yun Clan underground so that the Yun Clan would not be able to turn over.
If the people of the Yun Clan were wise, they would definitely know what he was thinking and remain neutral among all the princes.
When the Jin Emperor heard Rong Jin’s words, he felt a little relieved. The current ruler of Yun Clan seemed to be Yun Maozhe, but many things were decided by Yun Xiao. The property under Rong Jin’s name was all his own. If the two of them left the capital, the capital would naturally be more peaceful.
Of course, he was even more at ease.
After obtaining Rong Jin’s words, the Jin Emperor felt relieved, even if he waved his hand to let Yun Xiao and Rong Jin leave.
Until she left the Spring Fortune Palace, Yun Xiao still had some doubts about what had happened today. She could not control what had happened to the Jin Emperor today.
Just as he was about to ask Rong Jin why he wanted to tell her about taking her out of the palace, he heard a young palace maid rushing over and blocking her path. She respectfully said, “Greetings, Fourth Young Lady. Eldest Princess, please go over to the pavilion in front of you and have a chat.”
Because the matter of Jin Emperor Feng Yunxiao and county princess had not been spread out, not many people knew about it.
Yun Xiao frowned. This Eldest Princess did not need to think about it, she already knew that she was the mother of County Lord Hui Ning.
Yunxiao thought of the Eldest Princess, and then she thought of County Lord Hui Ning. She wondered how County Lord Hui Ning had been these past few days.
Yun Xiao nodded to the palace maid and told Rong Jin that she wanted to go over. However, Rong Jin also expressed his attitude and that she also wanted to go over together.
Yun Xiao was a little helpless about this. This was a war between women. She did not know why a man like Rong Jin would join in.
However, regarding Rong Jin’s decision, Yun Xiao’s heart still had a trace of invisible warmth.
The two of them quickly arrived at the pavilion. When the Eldest Princess saw Rong Jin, who had come with Yun Xiao, she frowned tightly and sneered, “The Yun Family’s Fourth Young Lady is really capable. There are actually so many people guarding her. I didn’t expect that there would be a man.”
Yun Xiao listened to the Eldest Princess’s superficial smile and walked towards the pavilion with Chun Lan’s help, with an expression that I couldn’t hear anything.
When the Eldest Princess saw that Yun Xiao did not reply, she sneered, “Yun Xiao, I didn’t expect that you would fall into my hands one day!” After she finished speaking, she held the cup in her hand and smashed it down on Yun Xiao.
However, before the cup landed on Yun Xiao’s body, Qing Mo quickly pulled Yun Xiao to the side, avoiding the injury this time.
When Yun Xiao heard the sound of the cup falling to the ground, a cold glint flashed through her eyes.
Qing Mo was also very dissatisfied with the Eldest Princess’ splashing behavior. Her ice-cold face was like ice cubes in a freeze. As long as Yun Xiao gave the order, she would definitely rush forward and kill the Eldest Princess.
Who knew that not only was Yun Xiao not angry, she sat down on the stone stool with a calm expression. She then brought a cup of tea and tested the temperature of the tea in the cup.
It was very hot. If it hit someone’s body, it would definitely leave a scar.
Yun Xiao smiled and looked at the other side with a dull gaze. She held it in her hand and probed the direction of the throwing. Then, she smashed the cup in her hand fiercely.
When Yun Xiao made this move, a series of cold breathing sounds sounded from all around.
The Eldest Princess did not expect that Yun Xiao would actually dare to resist. She even used her own methods to fight back. Seeing Yun Xiao throw a cup at her, she only thought that she was threatening her. Her expression was extremely embarrassed. “You! How dare you!”
