The Love of Passerby A

Chapter 189 The Little Transparent in the Princess and Prince Consort Story (54)

Finally it was Chu Yuhe's turn. Emperor Zhaohui once again dismissed his attendants, leaving only Wang Fuhai alone.

Emperor Zhaohui sat back in his seat, drinking the tea handed to him by Wang Fuhai. After a long while, he slowly spoke: "Just now, your wife Xue Qi said that you have feelings for my Huanniang. Can you tell me, is what she said true or false?"

Chu Yuhe lowered his head and gritted his teeth: "I do have a crush on the Fifth Princess, but..."

"It's just that I'm not as quick as your brother." Emperor Zhaohui chuckled, "But you should know that Huanniang doesn't have any feelings for you at all!"

Chu Yuhe seemed to have heard something else from Emperor Zhaohui's words. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Emperor Zhaohui: "What does the emperor mean?"

"Yuhe! It's hard to say about other things, but if you are willing to guard the border for a few years, there might be room for you to turn around." Emperor Zhaohui stroked his beard, "After all, this little girl likes heroes."

Chu Yuhe was not himself, so he certainly understood what Emperor Zhaohui meant. He smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, there is no need to say this to me. I know that after something like this happened, leaving Beijing is the best choice for me."

"Since you are willing, I won't say much." Emperor Zhaohui liked his tactfulness. "Go and guard it for a few years first! Come back after the storm has passed. As long as you are alive, there is always hope."

Chu Yuhe also bowed to him and said "yes".

Then he turned and left the palace.

Chu Yuhe eventually went to the border just like in his previous life, and vowed to achieve unprecedented achievements there as he did in his previous life.

He did not completely listen to Emperor Zhaohui's words. Chu Yuhe thought that as long as he won the battle, he would still be able to command a large number of troops and would be extremely powerful by then.

"Dad, being soft-hearted is like letting a tiger go back to the mountains or a dragon into the sea. It will sooner or later become a worry for you." Li Handan walked out from the back hall after everyone had left the Qianqing Palace.

Emperor Zhaohui looked at his daughter and smiled: "My Huanniang has really grown up and can advise Dad. Dad is old, one is his daughter and the other is his son who is studying with him, so he can't bring himself to do it."

"It's Huanniang who is cruel, not Daddy's fault." Li Handan bowed to Emperor Zhaohui, "I hope my daughter is overthinking it. After all, there are more good people under Daddy's rule."

Emperor Zhaohui said to Wang Fuhai beside him: "Put one or two secret guards beside the Third Princess and the Prince of Anguo to 'protect' them."

Wang Fuhai nodded. He had been with Emperor Zhaohui for many years and of course understood what it meant: it was called protection, but it was actually surveillance.

If there is any unusual movement, eliminate it immediately.

When Wang Fuhai went out, he happened to meet the obscure eyes of the Fifth Princess Li Handan. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Although she is a girl, the one who looks most like Emperor Zhaohui is indeed the Fifth Princess.

With Bai Yueguang's appearance and the same personality as mine, how could she not be liked by Emperor Zhaohui!

"Are you satisfied now?" Emperor Zhaohui came over and pulled his daughter up. "It's not your fault that you're short. I think it's because you're too cunning."

"Daddy, I'm sad when you say I'm short!" Li Handan said coquettishly with dissatisfaction.

Emperor Zhaohui stroked his daughter's hair and scolded with a smile: "You are already a mother of three children, and you still like to act like a spoiled child. Have another child with your husband when you have time, otherwise your parents-in-law will come to settle accounts with me!"

"No matter, no matter." Li Handan continued to act coquettishly, "Daddy stole my parents-in-law's grandson. I won't give birth to a child. Giving birth is so painful."

When he heard his daughter say that giving birth was painful, Emperor Zhaohui put aside the idea that had just come up: "Okay! Let it be as fate dictates. If it works, give birth to it. If it doesn't, I'll send Li Danruo's child to the Duke of Anguo's Mansion after a few years when the hype has died down."

"Dad, you're just hitting yourself because of that." Emperor Zhaohui wanted to negotiate with his daughter, "How about you let Fuling live in the palace for a few days and let her accompany me?"

"But in this palace?" Li Handan didn't continue speaking, but the meaning was very clear.

"Don't worry. Daddy is such a good father who raises daughters. You have never been wronged in your childhood." Emperor Zhaohui assured his daughter.

Li Handan finally had to agree to let her daughter enter the palace to live with Emperor Zhaohui for a while.

Li Handan and Chu Yuxuan's eldest son Li Chengji officially ascended the throne as emperor at the age of 20 and was called Emperor Rui'an.

His elder sister, Princess Changle, was canonized as "Princess Changle". Although his younger brother, Prince Yong Li Chengming, did not receive a promotion, the military power of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion was officially transferred to him.

Emperor Zhaohui abdicated and became the emperor emeritus.

The fifth princess Li Handan later gave birth to another son named Chu Huaian, who took over the secret guards when he grew up.

Li Handan and Chu Yuxuan both lived to be over eighty years old, and both died on the same day.

Their son, Emperor Rui'an, finally gave Li Handan the posthumous title of "Empress Zhaoyuan Rui'an Huining", and Chu Yuxuan the posthumous title of "Huangfu Wenqindezhao".
