Emperor Yuanfeng had always liked the Eleventh Princess, and naturally, the Eleventh Princess was good in his eyes. However, when he heard what Concubine Pang said, he nodded, and actually seemed to agree: "That's true. I remember you said before that although she is a princess, it is impossible for her to follow us for the rest of her life. She will eventually get married. With us, naturally no one dares to do anything to her, but we will all get old one day. Asking her to be a little more restrained is for her own good, and it also wants her to live a more comfortable life in the future."
Concubine Pang nodded and continued, "This little girl is still acting like a spoiled brat all day long. I don't know when she will be fully sensible. When she stops worrying me, I will be relieved."
Emperor Yuanfeng did not suggest choosing a prince consort for the Eleventh Princess. On the contrary, he suddenly felt that he did not want the Eleventh Princess to get married too early.
He raised his eyebrows and said very straightforwardly: "What's wrong with being a spoiled brat? She's still young, there's no rush. Will our princess still worry about getting married? Asking her to learn to control her temper is our plan for our daughter's future, but we're still here now, are we going to make her live a timid life?"
Concubine Pang felt somewhat helpless. It was he who had previously told the Eleventh Princess to control her temper and get married, and now he was also the one who said there was no need to rush.
But he is the emperor, so naturally what he says is what counts.
Concubine Pang could only agree to what he said. When she returned to her Fengzao Palace, she leaned weakly on her concubine couch and did not open her eyes for a long time.
Mingyue brought in some ginseng tea and called out "Your Highness" cautiously. When she saw Concubine Pang open her eyes, she said softly, "Drink some ginseng soup."
Then he tiptoed around to the back and massaged Concubine Pang's temples and neck.
Concubine Pang sighed comfortably, wondering in her heart what Emperor Yuanfeng meant.
It was clearly a hopeless situation. Concubine Pang had already figured things out over the past few days. There was nothing to ask for now. She just wanted to help the Fifth Prince pick a really good wife that suited his taste. But now Yuanfeng suddenly did this, and she couldn't help but feel her emotions beating fast.
If Su Yao is really allowed to run for election, what if Su Yao is paired with the fifth prince
Su Yao has the Su family and the He family behind him!
Su Rong is now thriving and becoming very popular, and the He family is even more so. Having a Mrs. He to keep the family in check is a treasure that no other family can even hope for.
But Su Yao himself is so smart that he is almost a demon!
Even without the support of these two families, as long as Su Yao had this ability, according to Concubine Pang's character, if she could have Su Yao as a daughter-in-law, she would definitely feel that she could still compete for it.
She lost her mood after drinking a few sips of the ginseng soup. She put the soup aside and stared at the vase on the table not far away with a sullen look. After a while, she frowned and was about to call for help when she heard a familiar voice of "Mother".
She smiled helplessly but happily. Before she could agree, she was hugged by the Eleventh Princess. She was caught off guard and couldn't help but stretch out her hand to push the Eleventh Princess away. Then she frowned and scolded: "You have been married for three years and I don't know what you have learned. Where did this rule come from?"
The Eleventh Princess was not afraid of her mother. She wrinkled her delicate nose and lay on Concubine Pang's lap and acted like a spoiled child: "Oh, why did mother say that? I came here from my father. I heard from my father that mother said I have made a lot of progress recently. Look at you. You don't even know how to praise your daughter in person, but you have to praise her behind her back."
Concubine Pang was so angry that she couldn't help laughing: "What's your zodiac sign? How come you have learned Zhu Bajie's skill of putting the blame on others? Your little tail is so high up in the sky when I don't praise you, and if I praise you, you will fly to the sky. How many times has your mother told you to be careful with your words and actions in the future, but you never listen. How can I praise you?"
Princess Eleven held her and swung her around, nudging her like a little rabbit. "Even if mother praises me, I won't show off my power. Mother, is Xiaoxiao coming to the palace too?"
People are like this, things smell better when they are far away, but worse when they are close. When they are far away, most people only remember the good things about the people they are close to, and not the bad things. What's more, the Eleventh Princess got along well with Su Yao. When Su Yao often came to the palace in the capital, the Eleventh Princess already liked her very much. Now that she has been away for two years, the Eleventh Princess misses her even more.
Concubine Pang knew this herself. She touched the top of Princess Eleven's head and hummed, "There will be a flower banquet in the palace in a few days, and Su Yao will be among the people who come in. You like her so much, and I only ask you to learn from her. I don't mean that you have to be as smart and capable as her, but at least learn to be half as steady as her, so that I can rest assured."
The Eleventh Princess felt so despised that she couldn't help pretending to be angry: "Mother, what's going on? Am I your daughter or is the youngest your daughter? You always praise the youngest in front of me and ask me to learn from her. Fortunately, I am broad-minded, otherwise you are trying to sow discord between me and her, right?"
Concubine Pang was so stunned by her words that she was speechless for a moment. She poked her daughter's forehead with a smile and said, "You are the only one who can talk! You said everything by yourself. What else do you want me to say? You are such a troublesome little enemy!"
The little enemy Princess Eleven was not afraid of Concubine Pang. When she heard that Su Yao would really enter the palace, she happily ran out to prepare.
She has saved up a lot of things in the past few years, all of which she is going to give to Su Yao.
When Concubine Pang saw her leave, she smiled and shook her head, and said to Aunt Jing: "Look at this little girl, she is really still a child. Don't you think about it, when Su Yao was her age..."
When Su Yao was her age, he had already begun to deal with those restless obstacles, and he also made a name for himself and was praised by the emperor.
Aunt Jing smiled and persuaded, "They have different identities, different experiences, how can you force them to be compared? To be honest, there is nothing wrong with our princess. She is noble but not arrogant, and she is sincere to others. This is already an unspeakable advantage, which is enough to show the excellence of our princess. As your highness said, if your highness is not broad-minded, she would have hated Su Yao after hearing you praise an outsider like this. But your highness not only did not take it to heart, but was happy for Miss Su Yao. Our princess is already very rare!"
Concubine Pang was actually amused by Aunt Jing's words.
