Chapter 392 You Won’t Regret It?
But this was not the time to correct his daughter's words. The emperor smiled and said, "It seems that my county lady's mansion cannot be given away—"
Deliberately teasing the fourth princess.
The fourth princess sat beside the emperor angrily, not saying a word and sulking.
Concubine Xiao couldn't help but ask, "What's going on? What's this all about, father and daughter?"
The Fourth Princess handed the letter in her hand to Concubine Xiao.
After reading this, Concubine Xiao couldn't help but laugh: "They are a newlywed couple. I know from what Le An said in the past that they have a very good relationship. They don't know how long they will be away in Nanyue. It's natural that they don't want to be apart! This is human nature. You are still young and don't understand. You will understand when you have a prince consort in the future."
The fourth princess curled her lips, still a little unhappy: "I'm not a child anymore, I know everything!"
After Concubine Xiao finished reading the letter, she placed it on the table and said, "Okay, let's eat!"
The fourth princess agreed, pouted and went to collect the pieces of letter paper, folded them carefully, and stuffed them back into the envelope.
Then she handed it to her personal maid: "It's in the mother-of-pearl box under my dressing table."
Seeing her daughter like this, Concubine Xiao couldn't help but want to tease her: "You are already angry with the Princess of Le'an, why did you put her letter in the box?"
The Fourth Princess snorted, "I'm not angry with Le'an County Master when I mention her husband. Besides, Le'an said she'd miss me, send me things, and definitely write me letters. This is the first letter I've received that's specifically addressed to me and me alone, promising a promise. Of course, I have to keep it safe."
Concubine Xiao softened and stroked the Fourth Princess' hair: "Yes! Our Changle is a kind and sincere child."
The emperor's eyes softened a bit, "Our Changle is indeed a good child."
The fourth princess rolled her eyes and grabbed the emperor's sleeve, shaking it: "Since father praised Changle, we must reward Changle as well."
The emperor was very generous: "Tell me, what reward do you want?"
The fourth princess smiled and said, "Then father, please keep the county lady's mansion and give it to Le'an when he returns, okay?"
The emperor's smile faltered. "Are you sure?"
The fourth princess nodded firmly: "I'm sure!"
The emperor pondered and said nothing, and Concubine Xiao was about to smooth things over.
The emperor smiled and said, "Okay, my words are golden. Since I have promised you, I will not go back on my word. It is settled then. Don't cry if Changle regrets it later."
The fourth princess rolled her eyes and said, "I will never regret it."
The emperor gestured for the fourth princess to follow him as he walked towards the table. He said, "If you knew that the Princess of Le'an was just like the other women outside, trying to please you and flatter you in order to gain benefits from you, wouldn't you regret it?"
The Fourth Princess puffed out her chest when she spoke of this. "I am a princess, the daughter of my father, the Emperor, and my mother, the Consort. I am naturally superior. Not to mention outside the palace, even within the palace, except for a few people, everyone wants to please me and flatter me, hoping to gain my respect."
"Le An is one of them, of course, but she's different! Although she also tries to please me, she does it with her heart."
The emperor laughed: "Who dares not to try hard to please you?"
The Fourth Princess thought about it seriously before saying, "They are different! The intentions are different! I can't explain it at the moment, but I can feel it! Those people flatter me because I am a princess. And Le An flatters me half because I am a princess, and half because I am a princess."
Concubine Xiao laughed when she heard this.
His eyes were filled with relief: "Changle has really grown up."
The emperor's eyes were full of admiration: "Indeed, our little Changle has grown up and knows how to judge people."
At this moment, Lu Zhenzhen, who was mentioned by the royal family, was seasick.
I didn't expect that she would get seasick in this body!
Fortunately, it wasn't a severe dizziness, just a headache, and I needed to lie down.
If we do it together, I will feel dizzy and want to vomit.
In Lu Zhenzhen's mind, this time on the boat, she would sit by the window, open the window, let the river breeze blow in, and enjoy the scenery on both sides of the river.
It turned out that I was fine when I just got on the boat, but I didn’t realize I was dizzy until the boat had been sailing for a long time. I was drunk.
Fu Zhiyi was so scared that his heart almost jumped out of his chest.
He hurriedly asked the nephew of Doctor Qi to come and take his pulse.
Who knew that the man was also seasick and was vomiting all over the place while holding the spittoon.
After struggling to give himself two injections and taking some medicine pills, he finally managed to pull himself together.
As soon as I saw Lu Zhenzhen's symptoms, I knew it was the same as mine.
I also gave her two injections and two pills I prepared, and let Lu Zhenzhen lie down and rest for a night. She would be fine the next morning.
Then he was called away, stepping up and down.
This time, in addition to the escorts from the Weiwu Escort Agency, there were also the servants and maids who were brought from the Ningping Marquis' Mansion.
Most of the people here have never been on a boat in their lives, and many of them get seasick.
Doctor Qi's nephew was busy for most of the day and only stopped for a while after he had distributed all the pills.
Lu Zhenzhen was lying on the bed, Fu Zhiyi was standing beside her, and Dingxiang and Haitang were at the door.
Nanny Ye, Jasmine and Daphne were all seasick and were lying in their rooms.
Fu Zhiyi was relieved when he saw that Lu Zhenzhen looked better.
Let Dingxiang and Haitang guard it, and there must be people around.
Then he got up and went outside to arrange things.
You must have a clear idea of the next journey, the personnel arrangements, and the origins of the merchant ships following in front and behind.
Lu Zhenzhen knew that he had important business to attend to, and kept urging him to go.
After rubbing Lu Zhenzhen's head, Fu Zhiyi tucked the corner of the quilt for her before leaving.
Daman had been waiting outside for a long time. When he saw Fu Zhiyi coming out, he hurried over to greet him and whispered, "The merchant ship has sent several representatives who want to see you, sir."
Fu Zhiyi nodded.
You know, there is an unspoken rule for sailing at this time.
Because those places with many mountains, deep waters and few people are prone to bandits.
Those civilian and merchant ships that passed by basically had a narrow escape of death.
The imperial court also sent troops to encircle and suppress the pirates, but most of those pirates were locals who were good at swimming.
When the officers and soldiers went to encircle and suppress the rebellion, they disguised themselves as local people and hid among the people.
Repeatedly banned.
When the pirates were at their most rampant, they once robbed government ships and killed the entire family of a prefect who was about to take office, leaving no one alive.
The ship was completely looted, leaving only dozens of dead bodies.
The official ship drifted downstream and was only discovered further downstream. The scene was truly horrific.
The emperor was furious when he learned that he had robbed and killed an imperial official.
When the emperor is angry, blood will flow for thousands of miles.
After a year, the bandits along the canal were almost wiped out.
The ships traveling on the canal are truly grateful.
But the good times did not last long. Within five years, the number of pirates gradually increased again.
However, they still remembered the fear of the bloodbath five years ago and made a rule not to rob government ships.
