Special Agent's Rebirth: The Almighty Goddess of Quick Transmigration-Chapter 28
Chapter 28
Of course… beyond everyone’s expectation, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who had always had a bad temper, did not get angry this time .
Even the guard at his side and Mo Hen started talking very joyously . All the people present felt like they had seen a ghost .
The Third Prince saw this scene and his hands couldn’t help but clench tightly .
Bai Zhenzhen leaned on her side and narrowed her eyes . Her body gradually reacted . She had already expected that Ye Mansion would not be in alliance with the Third Prince after the firearm incident .
The only thing she didn’t think of was that Ye Mansion would unexpectedly chose the Crown Prince, this useless person .
Who didn’t know that the prince’s Maternal Uncle supported the Third Prince . In this entire dynasty, everybody had the possibility to become the person who would take up the duty of emperor . Everybody except Huangfu Yunzheng .
If she couldn’t change this dynasty’s system1, couldn’t help the original owner take revenge, couldn’t stand in a high position, then what was the significance of her crossing over to this time?
“Second Miss Bai, could you explain to me the metaphorical meaning in this sentence of your poem?” Not far away, a famous gifted scholar of Jingcheng politely and modestly asked .
Bai Zhenzhen suddenly reacted . She was now the most talented woman in Jingcheng . Ye Shaohua, so what if you alter the firearms again?
What you don’t know is that I am absolutely not a person from ancient time . I am a modern person with five thousand years of cultural improvement in me . Anything that comes out of my mind will make people in this world exclaim in admiration!
**
Three days later, Jingcheng received an urgent report . The neighboring barbarian people of Yun Country launched another turmoil . The emperor always wanted to recover the land under heaven . This Yun Country was only one out of a multitude . However, this country’s people were fierce and abnormal . The important generals couldn’t do anything to guard the border against them .
The Emperor summoned his official that very night . This time the firearms had already successfully been developed . He wanted to try to conquer Yun Country . This decision made the Imperial Court’s officials feel anxious .
The Third Prince also spoke of a lot of strategies . However, he understood very little about the battlefield . He only knew military tactics on paper 2 .
When Huangfu Yunzheng was ten years old, he followed the Emperor to the battlefield and was very familiar with Yun Country .
It’s just that he had always been indifferent to fame and fortune, standing on the side like a transparent person . He had always played the role of an useless person who was not a threat to other princes .
However, this time, he shook the copper coins in the palm of his hand, and suddenly raised his head . The dull and ordinary eyes became sharp and stabbing at this moment . “Imperial Father, I, this servant, have a plan… . . ”
If the low-profile person who was unable to protect himself couldn’t protect the people he wanted to protect, then he need not continue to go on .
A group of court councilor saw the Crown Prince like this and could not help but look at him with shock . Several old officials listened to his way of governing the country and his method of recovering the lost territory . Pity flashed in the bottom of their eyes .
This kind of talent, if he was not a handicapped person, according to the Emperor’s love for him, he would not be limited in the future .
Very unfortunate…
In the end, the Crown Prince was beyond everyone’s expectations . He had to personally go to the border to sort out Yun Country’s people . The Emperor could not stop him, so he only could let him bring him a pile of men and horses .
The Maternal Uncle looked at the Crown Prince’s back and then strolled to the Empress’s residence .
The Empress didn’t know about this matter at this time . She just poured a cup of tea for her big brother and dismissed the attendants serving her . Her voice was somewhat reluctant . “Big Brother, Yunzheng refused to give back the Godly Machine Camp to Third son . This unfilial son, he is already a cripple yet he is still clinging to the Godly Machine Camp, not letting it go . He thinks he is as talented as Third son?!”
“Empress, it is needed to speak cautiously within the palace,” in the Maternal Uncle’s eyes flashed the color of regret . “You still don’t know . Actually, the Crown Prince is also a great talent . His way of governing the country and his method of recovering the lost territory made His Majesty exclaim in astonishment . If he had not been poisoned in his early years while on the battlefield, leaving behind an incompletely cured illness from which it was hard to recover completely, then, with the degree of love the Emperor is showing……”
“Impossible,” the Empress immediately frowned, subconsciously said: “The Yunzheng I know, his brain cannot compare with Third son’s . He couldn’t even write his own name completely at the age of five . Afterwards, he went straight to the battlefield . He also didn’t go to any decent Imperial Teacher’s lessons . Merely a boorish man . How could he possibly be proficient in the way of governing a country!”
“He hid very well . Do you know how many old officials are lamenting right now?” The Maternal Uncle shook his head slightly . “He will go to the northern border tomorrow . Unfortunately, his body is sick, otherwise he would be suitable for the Imperial Court . Furthermore, which prince can compare with him?”
“What are you talking about?” Hearing this, the Empress almost fell from her chair and muttered in disbelief . “This is impossible, how is this possible…”
In the past, the Third Prince had been extremely outstanding, causing him to suffer from the palace’s inner people’s jealousy .
It was precisely because Huangfu Yunzheng was slow-witted that she abandoned him . She let him drink the poison soup that should have been drunk by the Third Prince, thus letting him contract this incompletely cured illness and making the emperor feel quite guilty . This had been quite a blessing for the mother and children group of three3 .
Consequently, her third son grew up safe and sound .
But right now, her big brother actually said that the ability of this son that she regarded as a shield was genuinely great, like that of a respected scholar . She had not looked after Huangfu Yunzheng for many years . In the past few days, he had had conflicting views with her and she feared that Huangfu Yunzheng was already at odds with herself . How could the Empress accept this?
For her, the Empress’s, goal of assuming the position of Empress Dowager in the future, she had not hesitated to sacrifice her own son . But who would have thought that the son she treated as a shield was actually the most suitable emperor?
“Is the Crown Prince’s disease really not treatable?” The Maternal Uncle confirmed again and again .
“That’s right . His Majesty has let the imperial doctors look after him . Only the Godly Medical Valley’s Yu family members are able to cure him . However, the Yu family members continuously refused to give His majesty face . How could they come look after him(Yun)?” The Empress gradually calmed down .
“It seems that your relationship with the Crown Prince cannot be recovered,” the Maternal Uncle sighed . “So, you can only make plans early, Empress . You can’t be merciful and lenient, this time…”
**
The Crown Prince was already twenty-two this year, but he still hadn’t married . Moreover, he also still didn’t have any women in his mansion .
The Emperor had always favored him . This time, he(Yun) is going into battle, so he wanted him(Yun) to let some women attend to him(Yun) . He selected very carefully and decided to let Bai Zhenzhen become the Crown Prince’s Imperial concubine .
Bai household held military power and can look after the Crown Prince, just in time for the battles .
In order to keep the balance of power steady, he intended to let Ye Family and the Third Prince become related by marriage .
Bai Family and Ye Family cannot stand on the same side .
The Third Prince heard this sentence and directly shouted that the Emperor was biased . Now, Bai Zhenzhen was almost the head of the scholars in the land under heaven . To have her was equivalent to obtaining the heart of the scholar in the land under heaven and, in addition, holding military power .
Appart from being a family of persons of virtue and prestige, highly respected in the court, what else could be said about Ye Family?
Biased! Completely biased!
The Third Emperor felt indignant and went to look for the Emperor . He didn’t expect that Bai Zhenzhen would already be there when he went .
Bai Zhenzhen was a modern woman, how could she let the Emperor dictate her, especially in the matter of marrying an handicapped person?
Did this Crown Prince even understand the doctrine of the mean? Did he understand poetry, painting and calligraphy? What’s more, she would have to accompany the Crown Prince to go to war?
A handicapped man wanted to fight in a war, why would she also go and throw away her life .
She, Bai Zhenzhen didn’t put up appearance, or she would be the most honorable woman under the heaven . 4
“Emperor,” Bai Zhenzhen said, neither servile nor overbearing: “Feng Ya Lou is my property, this first under heaven Lou is my property . I know that the national treasury is in short supply of money . As long as you set up an imperial edict stating that you will no longer interfere with my marriage, I will immediately donate 200,000 silver taels!”
The famous in the land under heaven Fengya Lou was actually hers? The property south of the river of the richest family, whose status had risen in the past two years, this richest family’s second son unexpectedly turned out to be Bai Zhenzhen . The Third Prince suddenly raised his head to look toward Bai Zhenzhen .
