The Eldest Daughter Is Beautiful and Saucy
Chapter 655: Fucking
Chapter 655: Internal strife
Elder Fang’s body trembled, and he kowtowed in panic: “I am only thinking about Your Highness!”
“If I didn’t know that you were doing this for me, would you still be standing here?! You openly and covertly excluded Qin Shangzhi, do you really think I don’t know?! Mr. Fang… I always help you suppress Qin Shangzhi because you have been loyal to me for so many years and have been planning for me! You secretly hinted to others to squeeze Qin Shangzhi, do you really think I am blind?”
The prince was so angry that he walked to the side of Mr. Fang, bent over and yelled at him: “I know everything! But I didn’t ask anything, because… you accompanied me all the way when I was in the most difficult time! To me… you are more important than ten Qin Shangzhis! Even if the strategies you give are not as good as Qin Shangzhi’s, I will still listen to you blindly. At most… I can make up for it later. You tell me… How can I, a prince, treat you like this?!”
“Your Highness, I… I am ashamed!” Old Fang kowtowed again while crying.
“But people should not be ungrateful!” The prince stood up and looked coldly at Elder Fang who was trembling on the ground. After letting out his anger, his emotions gradually calmed down and his voice became softer. “Elder Fang, you are old after all. You have to admit your age! You also have to admit that… Bai Qingyan’s mental structure and ability to lead troops in battle are better than yours! And even so… I still trust you more! You know! You are all loyal to me… We are one family, how can we fight against each other?!”
“Your Highness! It’s me… I am sorry for your trust!” Old Fang cried out. He felt ashamed for having his villainous thoughts exposed, but also grateful that the prince trusted him more.
The prince closed his eyes, and his mind couldn’t help but think of Old Fang’s usual kindness. He originally wanted to reach out and help Old Fang up, but when he thought of Bai Qingyan’s body covered in blood, he walked behind the desk, sat down on the chair, and stared at Old Fang.
“Mr. Fang, I hope you remember that the person I trust the most is Mr. Fang at all times! No one can shake Mr. Fang’s position in my heart, but… Princess Zhenguo is also someone I trust, because she is a descendant of the Bai family, and the Bai family… is known to be loyal and righteous! Since Bai Qingyan has already recognized me as his master, he will naturally be loyal to me! Bai Qingyan has all the abilities, character, and intelligence. I have such a loyal person around me… Mr. Fang should be happy for me! Don’t frame each other among your own people, otherwise in the end… I will be the one who gets hurt!” The prince sighed and waved to Quan Yu, “Help Mr. Fang up!”
Elder Fang bowed heavily to the Crown Prince: “Your Highness, what you said today, I will remember it! I was wrong-minded and worried that… Your Highness would think that my old bones are useless! But Your Highness… I will say this to you for the last time today. The Princess Zhenguo is very patient and intelligent, Your Highness… You’d better be on guard!”
After saying this, Elder Fang bowed again: “This is the last time I will say this, Your Highness, just know what is going on. From today on… I will never do anything that would make Your Highness sad again. Since Your Highness trusts Princess Zhenguo so much, I… will also trust Princess Zhenguo and will never embarrass her again!”
Finally, the old stubborn man was convinced. The prince nodded and waved his hand tiredly: “Mr. Fang was also frightened today. Go and rest!”
After Mr. Fang kowtowed, he stood up tremblingly, holding the table, bowed deeply, and left the prince’s study.
Quan Yu saw the prince sitting on a chair with his eyes closed and silent, and walked forward in small steps: “Your Highness… Let me help you bathe and change into clean clothes!”
The prince nodded, and when he looked up, he saw Quan Yu was also in a mess. Thinking of how Quan Yu had lived and died with him today, he said in a gentle voice, “You have been through life and death with me twice today. You must have worked hard! You should also go take a shower, change clothes, and rest! Let others serve you!”
“Your Highness, what are you talking about? Quan Yu is your servant and I will follow you till death!” Quan Yu looked at the prince solemnly and bowed to him.
“I know you are loyal, so you must not fall ill. You must take good care of me! Go! I want to see the Crown Princess first!” the prince instructed.
After experiencing life and death, the prince became more trusting and gentle towards those who risked their lives with him.
Quan Yu nodded with tears in his eyes and left.
The Crown Princess is pregnant. She and the Crown Prince were frightened today. He has to go see the Crown Princess first. His Crown Princess has always been timid… She definitely needs him to stay by her side, but there are too many things to do today…
It was already dark, and the heavy rain had stopped.
The flickering candlelight illuminated the prince’s tired face. He thought of the Crown Princess, took a deep breath to cheer himself up, ordered people to prepare the Crown Princess’s favorite snacks, and then stood up and walked along the corridor towards the backyard.
The vermilion-painted corridor with carved and painted buildings is quiet and warm under the yellow hexagonal palace lanterns. Occasionally, the accumulated raindrops drip into the water from the high eaves, making a clear and ethereal sound.
The capital city, which had been bustling with shouts and cries of killing for the entire day, finally quieted down.
After receiving the order from Prime Minister Lu, the Jingzhao Yin Mansion was brightly lit, and the officers sent people to post notices to inform merchants and civilians that the riot had been quelled… and to search for Liu Ruofu who had already escaped from Prince Xian’s Mansion.
The Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple were also brightly lit tonight, as if it were daytime. After all the guards at the four gates of the capital city were replaced, they were invited into the Dali Temple prison and interrogated in detail one by one to make sure that no traitors were missed.
Fu Ruoxi took off her armor and returned to the Fu family. She stood at the main entrance of the Fu family for a long time before stepping in.
Luo, who was guarding the coffin of Old Lady Fu with her two young children, was holding her youngest child who was already asleep. She looked up and saw Fu Ruoxi standing at the door. Her eyes widened immediately, tears streaming down her cheeks. She quickly handed her young child to her personal nanny and hurriedly stood up to greet Fu Ruoxi. However, she knelt for too long and her legs became numb, so she fell back to her knees.
Fu Ruoxi subconsciously reached out her hand, but he was too far away from Luo, and inexplicably… Fu Ruoxi’s eyes turned red.
Luo stood up with the help of the maid’s hand, and endured the numbness in her legs as she trotted out quickly. When she walked down the stairs, her legs became weak and she almost fell. Fu Ruoxi was startled and stepped forward quickly to support Luo who was about to fall.
Luo looked up and saw Fu Ruoxi’s face was immediately filled with tears, but she did not say any words of resentment. She just looked at him, touched his empty sleeves, and sobbed softly.
Luo was afraid that her crying would make Fu Ruoxi feel even worse, so she just asked with a sob, “Does it still hurt?”
These three words broke Fu Ruoxi’s heart. He could no longer hold back his tears and pulled Luo into his arms.
In the past, he only cared about others, and never realized that Luo cared about him so much.
He swore that from now on… he would treat his wife well and be a good husband and a good father!
Second update: Old Lady Fu can close her eyes now!
