Chapter 171: Being a Perfect Man in My Fair Princess (6)
"Your Majesty, he's awake!" Erkang saw Xiao Jian wake up and hurriedly reported to the emperor.
"Your Majesty? I didn't know you were the Emperor. I'm late in coming to your rescue. I hope you'll forgive me." The first words Xiao Jian said after waking up were confession, which pleased the emperor very much.
"It's okay. The warrior saved me. What crime has he committed?"
In this way, Xiao Jian joined a few people because of his life-saving grace to the emperor and his injury, and got the emperor's promise to become a guard.
After Xiao Jian recovered from his injury, he would always stare at Xiao Yanzi from time to time, his heart filled with joy at having found his sister, while Yong Qi felt that there were many dangers, especially when Xiao Yanzi and Xiao Jian were having a good chat, Yong Qi felt jealous.
A letter from the capital broke the balance. The letter was sent by Shi Yi, but this time, the letter said one more thing, that is, Fang Zhihang's case was a miscarriage of justice, and asked the emperor whether he wanted to overturn the verdict.
Xiaoyanzi read the letter carelessly. No one expected that this family letter also mentioned political affairs, which made Xiaoyanzi a little at a loss. Fortunately, the emperor did not intend to blame Xiaoyanzi.
"Let me see it." The emperor took the letter, looked at it carefully, and said nothing. At this time, Xiao Jian suddenly knelt down.
"Your Majesty, please overturn the case for Prefect Fang. Your Majesty, please forgive me. I am Prefect Fang's biological son. It was my wet nurse who risked her life to save me that allowed me to escape."
The emperor stared at Xiao Jian without saying anything. After a moment's silence, the emperor finally spoke: "Is your saving me really an accident?"
"This was indeed an accident. I had a younger sister who also escaped. After years of investigation, I learned that my sister was sent to the capital, so I planned to go to the capital to look for her. Unexpectedly, I encountered a thief who was trying to assassinate the emperor. I recognized Princess Heshu as my sister at first sight."
"What?!" Xiaoyanzi exclaimed: "I am your sister?"
"That's right, Princess Heshu, you look very similar to my mother. If you have any doubts, I also know that my sister has a red mole on her butt." This was a bit offensive, but Xiaoyanzi was stunned.
"Is that so? You are really my brother?" Xiaoyanzi's eyes were filled with tears: "No wonder I always felt so close to you"
At this point, the emperor could no longer drag on Fang Zhihang's case, and he immediately wrote back to Shiyi to reinvestigate the matter. However, it had been so long since the incident occurred that it would take time to get to the bottom of it.
It happened that the King of Tibet was about to come to Beijing to pay homage at this critical juncture, so this matter had to be put on hold for the time being. The emperor and his entourage hurried back to Beijing to prepare for an audience with the King of Tibet.
Little Swallow joined in the fun and quietly came to the scene to welcome the King of Tibet, but was discovered by the King of Tibet's daughter, Princess Seya. The two started bickering, but soon they hit it off and became good friends with similar personalities.
In order to welcome the King of Tibet, a martial arts competition was held. The Tibetan warriors were very brave and the young Eight Banners disciples were unable to resist. This made the emperor very frustrated. Yongqi was eager to try, but he did not know what the competition was for, so he had to give up with regret.
"It's fine if you all don't want to marry Princess Seya, but how come you don't even care about the reputation of the Qing Dynasty?" Shi Yi scolded in a fake manner.
"Sixth brother, it's easy for you to say that. Why don't you go and have a competition?" Soon another prince became unwilling. They did not want to be suppressed by Yongqi and Shiyi, so they opposed Shiyi openly or secretly.
"The Emperor specifically told me not to go on stage, otherwise I would really like to go on stage and have a good competition." Shi Yi pretended to be regretful, which made several people very angry.
"Let me try!" Xiaoyanzi was very excited and rushed forward with her whip. Unfortunately, her kung fu was not very good and after defeating two people, she was defeated again soon.
"Be careful!" Yongqi saw Xiaoyanzi being knocked off the stage and quickly flew over to catch her.
"Xiaoyanzi, are you okay?" Princess Seya was also very worried. This was her first friend since she came to the Qing Dynasty. She hoped nothing happened to him. She secretly glared at the warrior who had made the move.
"It's okay, it's my fault that my skills are not as good as others. I, Xiaoyanzi, admit it. Father Your Majesty, it is your son who has brought shame to you." Xiaoyanzi's generous look made everyone look at her with higher regard.
"Where? Xiaoyanzi is already very impressive, don't you think, Queen?"
"Of course. The women of our Qing Dynasty were born on horseback, so they are no less capable than others." The Queen looked at Xiaoyanzi with pride. She was also such a willful woman in her past, but when she became a concubine and even a Queen, she had to do many things because of no other reasons.
"Hahaha, the daughter of the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty is indeed brave, but my daughter is not bad either." The King of Tibet laughed and said, "In the future, this position of mine will belong to my daughter."
After these words, she told the emperor her choice of successor, which was also a sign of Tibet's submission to the Qing Dynasty. The emperor did not want to pursue the matter of the warrior almost hurting Xiaoyanzi.
"Father Emperor, my daughter also practiced martial arts, why don't you let her try it too?" Ziwei volunteered, and everyone's face changed.
"Ziwei, you'd better take a rest. Let them do this kind of thing." The emperor was afraid that Ziwei would not be able to stop herself and hurt the next King of Tibet.
"Yes, Ziwei, you'd better take a rest. I'll let Erkang go up later." Qing'er remembered how Ziwei bravely fought the enemy when the emperor was assassinated, and she felt sympathetic.
The more people tried to stop him, the more curious the King of Tibet became: "Why not let this princess try it too?" Looking at the thin girl, the King of Tibet said kindly: "Saya will also be very careful."
"Just be careful, just be careful," Xiaoyanzi patted her chest and panted.
When Ziwei came on stage, Seya planned to push a few warriors on the stage to fight Ziwei, but Ziwei stopped her: "Come on together, I haven't fought so happily in a long time."
In just a short time, the warriors who were originally so aggressive were thrown off the stage one after another. Seya was also accidentally thrown out when she was fighting with Ziwei. If Ertai had not reacted quickly, Seya would have been covered in mud.
"Hahaha, He'an has quite the style of me in my old age." The emperor's praise made all the princesses envious, but Ziwei was not jealous at all.
Are you kidding? They are not stupid. Ziwei was able to throw the big man so far away, so someone like me might be thrown from the East Six Palaces to the West Six Palaces. Why are you jealous of such people? They are not worthy of being beaten by others.
Even the peaceful face of Concubine Ling showed a trace of cracks. Thinking about her original plan, if this plan succeeded, who knows what kind of suffering her precious daughter would have to endure. It is better to get along well with the imperial concubine.
Only the Queen was very satisfied. Ziwei's move brought great honor to the Qing Dynasty. This was what the Queen cared about. Since she became the Queen, she no longer had her own selfish desires.
