Chapter 153 I Lied to You as a Puppy
Moreover, the requirements for Princess Changping were not low either. She required the man to be tall and handsome, and to hold a certain official position, because a person with a high official position naturally had high knowledge.
She would never support a useless gigolo. She was a princess, so naturally all the men in the world were available for her to choose from. She didn't believe that she couldn't find the man of her dreams.
She insisted on finding a handsome and tall man, who held a high official position and who did not have any parents-in-law, sisters-in-law, brothers-in-law or the like to serve him and cause trouble.
But there is no one in this world who is completely tailor-made for her! After so much selection, she is already 22 years old and still unmarried, which makes Princess Changping a little anxious.
"Does this princess still need to worry about no one marrying her? Get out of the way! I'm going to ask my father to find me a consort."
Princess Changping pushed the old nanny over and walked angrily towards the imperial study.
"Fatty, what are you doing sneaking around the lake?" Princess Changping had just turned a corner when she saw the fat prince, the Ninth Prince. He wanted to run away when he saw her. Is she that scary?
"Emperor, sister, I'm catching crickets." The ninth prince said tremblingly.
"What's so fun about bugs? They just play around all day long without making any achievements. They're fat as a ball. They're such a waste! You'd better hide when you see me next time! I feel sick just by seeing you. Go away!"
The lotus flowers in the lake are in full bloom, and a breeze blows by, bringing a faint floral fragrance.
A figure appeared at the end of the lake, tall and slender. Because his back was facing Princess Changping, she could not see his front, but just one look at his back was enough to make her fall in love with him.
She was eager to get in front of him to see him, but she forgot that this was the Lotus Lake on the way to the Imperial Study, not the road. Before she could run in front of the man, she fell into the lake with a "plop".
"Help! Help! The princess fell into the lake!" The old lady cried out in panic.
Cheng Rui had arrived in Yuecheng in the morning. He went to the mansion, packed his luggage, and had his two children taken care of. He rested for an hour, but did not see Zeng Qianer. He guessed that she should be living at her parents' home.
In the afternoon, he went to the palace to express his gratitude. The emperor was still asleep from his nap, so the eunuch told him that it would take another half hour for the emperor to wake up. He asked him to wait outside the door, or to look at the scenery at the lotus lake outside the imperial study, and to notify him when the emperor woke up.
He was a new official, the son-in-law of the former minister and the brother-in-law of the current minister of justice. The eunuchs all had sharp eyes and dared not ask him to wait. It would only take him about half an hour to take a walk around the Lotus Lake.
Cheng Rui looked at the eunuch who was so kind to him, and felt deeply moved. In the past, a small ninth-rank official dared to mock him and verbally insult his mother.
And now the favorites around the emperor also speak nicely to him. It's really a world of difference. He finally made it.
Mother, can you see this in heaven? Your son has made you proud, and he will definitely sit higher in the future.
A sudden cry for help broke Cheng Rui's meditation. He heard the old nanny say that it was the princess who fell. That was terrible. If the princess was in trouble and he didn't rescue her, the emperor would blame him and his career as an official might be over.
But if he rescued them, there would be differences between men and women. Would he get into trouble? He remembered that there was only one princess in South Vietnam, who should be in her twenties and should have been married long ago!
It was just his fault that he never asked about women's affairs. Now he was in a difficult situation. The old lady had seen him and ran over to pull him away.
Saving lives was the most important thing, so he didn't hesitate any longer, took off his boots and coat and jumped into the lake.
The lake was only about one and a half meters deep. Princess Changping could not swim and choked on the water when she fell in. She struggled constantly and killed all the emerald green lotus leaves and beautiful lotus flowers.
When she was exhausted and about to sink, a tall and handsome figure swam towards her.
He was like a prince charming from heaven. His handsome and flawless appearance made her give up struggling and forget about the danger. Before she sank into the lake, her only thought was that she must marry this man.
.........
"Your Majesty, something bad has happened! Your Majesty, the princess has fallen into the lake."
"What? How did you fall into the lake? Hurry up and dress me. I want to go see Changping."
The emperor got up in a hurry, asked the eunuch to put on his coat and shoes, and left.
He didn't even notice the Ninth Prince who was on his way to the Imperial Study to play with his father.
The Ninth Prince watched his father rushing towards the Lotus Lake. His sister had just scolded him vigorously! How could she fall into the lake? Maybe she just wanted to make his father nervous about her, so he didn't go there to get scolded.
He should go to the imperial study and wait for his father!
There is no one guarding the Imperial Study today? How strange! Usually there are two people guarding it. Could it be that they have gone to the Lotus Lake with my father? My sister is really having too much fun.
After entering the imperial study, the Ninth Prince subconsciously looked at the bird feather. This feather was no different from the one he bought! It was just that the pattern was a little different.
His father never lets him touch it, and no one else can touch it. Will the hair break if it is touched?
He took out a bird feather from his sleeve and compared it with the one on the table. Well, he really drew well. He modified the original different patterns and made it exactly the same as the one on the table.
Why didn't his father let him touch this feather? But the more he was forbidden to touch it, the more he wanted to touch it. He was just curious and wanted to see and touch it.
The Ninth Prince couldn't help but pick up the Purple Flame Feather on the vase. A beam of purple light shone into his eyes, and he saw a beautiful woman crying and begging him to save her and let her go.
He was so scared that he loosened his grip and threw away the Purple Flame Feather. What the hell was this! How could a feather talk, cry, and ask him to save her? How could he save her? A feather still needed to be saved.
Being kindhearted, he still picked up the feather on the ground and tried to say to it: "Then how should I save you?"
"Are you really willing to save me? My soul has been trapped here for more than 20 years. Please take me out of the palace and hand me over to Miss Shangguan Yue of the General's Mansion."
"Shangguan Yue, the eldest daughter of the Protector General's Mansion? Sister Yue'er! Why should we give it to her?"
"You will know when the time comes. Hurry up and exchange the other one in your hand with me, otherwise it will be too late."
"This, this is what I made for Sister Yue'er."
"What's the point of giving her a fake one? She has always wanted the real one from me. She wanted to take me away last time she came to the Imperial Study, but she couldn't do anything."
"Really?"
"It's absolutely true! Hurry up, don't waste time, they will be back soon."
"I, I don't dare. Father will beat me to death."
"Your father loves you the most. He won't hit you. Besides, didn't you also put the same one? He won't find out."
"I, I'm scared. I've never stolen anything."
"You are so useless. No wonder no one wants to play with you. If you hand me over to Shangguan Yue, she will look at you differently."
"Really?"
"I lied to you that I was a puppy!"
