Emperor Lord

  A gentle breeze blew in, slowly clearing the chaotic mind of Chen Ye. As he came to his senses, he found that his uncle had already left, and Chen Ye couldn't help but let out a soft sigh...

  He didn't know before, but from now on, he understood that the crisis of the Chen family did not only come from the pressure of the imperial court, but also from the ambition of many people within.

  To be honest, San Ge Zhen Yuan is not unaware of this. As long as everyone is united, there might be a chance to resolve this confrontation from the imperial family. However, knowing and wanting to do something about it are two different things.

  You can't say others don't understand the situation, because people have different ideas. In their hearts, they may think that what they are going to do or are doing will help the Chen family get through this crisis!

  Chen Ye couldn't help but shake his head, he had never thought that one day, he would face a challenge from his own brothers, and even be forced... No matter who won or lost between the brothers, in the end, the one who suffered the most was still the old master!

  Sighing repeatedly in the dead of night, things have come to this. Although what happens next is beyond one's control, one must do their best and not let the old master suffer that kind of extreme pain!

  Outside the imperial city, at the foot of a mountain peak, a river flows slowly, with lush green grass and fragrant flowers on both banks, making it a great place to be, most importantly, it's quiet enough!

  "Giddy up! Giddy up!"

  Suddenly, a horseshoe sound came from afar, and in just a moment, a crimson horse could be seen galloping through the clouds.

  On horseback, a slender figure, with the horse's ups and downs, a purple lilac long dress fluttering in the wind, showing a few heroic spirits.

  A galloping horse, a mountain breeze blows by, lifting the veil on this figure's face, revealing an absolutely stunning countenance in the midst of space.

  At first, he was lying on the grass thinking about things. Because of the sudden arrival of a fine horse, he had to sit up and take a look. Just as the horse brushed past him, he caught sight of the rider's face.

  Zhenye was not that kind of frivolous and dissolute person, he wouldn't be unable to withdraw his gaze just because the other person looked good, but this time, his gaze really couldn't be withdrawn.

  A crimson horse galloped by, and Zhen Ye only caught a glimpse of it, but his line of sight followed the horse as it disappeared into the distance.

  Savoring the stunning looks of that figure just now, a similarly exquisite face emerged in my mind, and then two faces that should have belonged to different people finally merged together perfectly.

  "It was actually her, how is that possible? What's going on?" Chen Ye's face suddenly trembled, and after thinking for a moment without any result, he quickly got up and ran towards home.

  At this moment, the fine horse suddenly stopped, and the figure on the horse seemed to have thought of something, hastily pulling the reins to turn around, looking at Chen Ye's back, just for an instant, then whipping the horse to gallop again. Although they were not heading in the same direction as Chen Ye, they were both on their way back to the imperial capital.

  Ran all the way back home, Chen Ye didn't even have time to catch his breath before rushing to the courtyard where Eldest Uncle Chen Shun was, but not only was Eldest Uncle not there, Second Uncle wasn't there either.

  Helpless, Chen Ye had no choice but to rush to the old master's residence deep in the mansion.

  "Master Xiao, Master Xiao, Princess Xuanling has arrived and specifically wants to see you. Your uncle and second uncle are telling you to hurry over."

  So fast? Chen Ye immediately let out a bitter laugh. Of course, someone on horseback would be faster than her two legs. It seemed that she had also recognized him.

  Since it's come to this, I can only take things one step at a time. I'd like to see what this girl is really up to anyway.

  The spacious living room had only four people in it, apart from Da Bo and Er Bo, the other two were him and the figure he had met not long ago who was galloping freely on horseback.

  Now, she has removed her veil, revealing her stunning beauty, clearly visible to everyone in the hall. However, there is one difference: the girl's eyes are dull and hazy at this moment, giving people a sense of confusion. Her small mouth keeps biting her fingers, without any hint of a princess-like demeanor.

  There was also an old man who seemed to be the girl's guardian, standing respectfully behind her.

  "Yè ér, come and pay your respects to Princess Xuán Líng!" Zhēn Shùn said with a smile, but everyone could hear the faint displeasure in his tone. The Emperor had just bestowed a marriage that didn't work out, and now the main character of this bestowed marriage was knocking on their door, openly humiliating the Zhēn family like this - did they really think the Zhēn family was easy to bully?

  "Good evening, Your Highness!" Chen Ye also couldn't help but laugh and stepped forward to greet her respectfully.

  "Play... play..." Zhen Ye saw, Xuan Ling princess said unclearly, and she also stood up from the chair and walked over.

  Chen Shun brothers were stunned for a moment, they could never have imagined that this mysterious and beautiful princess would show such favor to their own nephew!

  Tonight, she laughed even more happily in her heart. Judging from Princess Xuan Ling's current appearance, who would have thought that she had another side? Over the years, this girl really has skills and can deceive everyone in the Imperial City of Emperor Du, including her own father!

  "The princess has an order. Brother Chen Gongzi, you can accompany the princess to play for a while!" The old man then turned to Chen Shun brothers and said: "Two adults, sorry to trouble you."

  Without waiting for Chen Xun's brothers to say anything, Xuan Ling Gong Zhu directly pulled up Chen Ye's hand and skipped out, leaving them staring blankly.

  It's not like there was anything fun to do, both of them knew what was going on, so Chen Ye directly took the princess to his room and closed the door. After closing the door, Chen Ye said: "I've seen Your Highness."

  The words were still polite, but without the previous respect!

  "Haha, Chen Ye, your family's attitude towards me isn't very friendly at all, you're quite bold!"

  Xuan Ling Gong Zhu blinked her eyes, and those beautiful pupils were instantly lively to the extreme. The dazed look disappeared, replaced by a calm demeanor, as if a green lotus had bloomed, fully revealing the noble bearing of a princess, making her seem like a completely different person from just before!

  At this, Chen Ye smiled faintly and said: "In terms of audacity, it's indeed the princess who is greater. If not for the emperor covering up for you from behind your back, the princess's schemes would be truly shocking."

  Xuan Ling Gong Zhu, the current emperor's youngest daughter, was born when a rare cloud descended from heaven, coinciding with a major victory at the border, which ended more than a decade of war with the Da Shang Empire, and thus was considered a blessing from heaven bestowed upon the Great Hua Empire.

  From then on, she was extremely favored by the current emperor. Even if she were born in an imperial family, Princess Xuan Ling had a high status that other princes and princesses did not have. She truly gathered all the favors of her life, and in this country, there was no one who would not like her.

  Unexpectedly, Princess Xuanling was seven years old that year, playing in the imperial garden, and accidentally fell into the lotus pond. Although her life was not in danger, she became an idiot after waking up due to excessive fright.

  No matter how many methods the emperor used afterwards, he was unable to restore Princess Xuanling to her former state!

  A pearl of great price, from now on covered in dust!

  But before that, no one would have thought that the so-called idiot was actually a false identity deliberately created by Princess Xuan Ling to deceive others.

  If it wasn't for running into each other today, Chen Ye wouldn't have thought of it at all!

  It can be seen from this that the mind, plot and wisdom of this girl who is only slightly younger than herself are how terrifying!
