CHAPTER 329 (1): JEALOUS SU

Su Xi-er wasn’t sleepy, so she decided to take a walk in the courtyard . Staring at the night sky, she started to think about Lianchen .  Were the three chief ministers convinced of his authority after he seized the power of those Ministries? Is Yun Ruofeng already making a comeback? Why was the Lan Script allowed to disseminate again?

She became lost in her thoughts until she heard some approaching footsteps, jolting her back to her senses . When she saw it was Feng Changqing, however, she relaxed her vigilance .

Before Feng Changqing could open his mouth, Su Xi-er waved his hand for him to keep quiet . She then quickly had him follow her back to her room; only when the door was locked tightly did Feng Changqing begin to speak .

“Eldest Imperial Princess, one of your previous subordinates from Nanzhao sent a letter saying that all of the new policies that you had previously introduced have been reinstated . Prince Yun was the first to approve, and His Majesty threw his support behind the motion as well . Besides that, business at the Cyan Wind Pavilion has only been improving, all thanks to His Majesty’s support . ”

Su Xi-er looked doubtful after hearing that . “Prince Yun was the first to approve of the new policies being reinstated?

Feng Changqing nodded . “The letter clearly mentioned Prince Yun’s approval, but it also noted that he’s been convalescing in his residence this entire time . We don’t know why, but he hasn’t participated much in court affairs either . ”

This doesn’t sound like something Yun Ruofeng would do at all .  Su Xi-er furrowed her brows . “Write a letter to Nanzhao and ask them to investigate . I was wondering why I had found a Lan Script copybook while I was organising the books this afternoon . ”

Feng Changqing nodded . “The Lan Script is being printed again, and promoted by the palace . All the noble daughters have started to learn it, and even the scholars from the Literary Association have begun to study it . Nanzhao has also set aside a large amount of silvers to help the civilians, and they are not as profligate when it comes to spending on military provisions . The current Nanzhao is much better than it was before . ”

“Mmm, Lianchen is doing great . Find out what Yun Ruofeng is doing in his residence as soon as possible and remind Lianchen to make sure that he isn’t caught unprepared . ” A glint of delight flickered across Su Xi-er’s eyes, but she didn’t loosen up at all .  I can only relax once Lianchen has complete authority .

“There is one other thing, but this subordinate doesn’t know if I should say it?” His expression revealed that he was in a difficult position .

“Tell me . ” Su Xi-er looked at him . The determined look in her eyes made Feng Changqing feel as if he was back on the battlefield and receiving the Eldest Imperial Princess’ orders .

“His Majesty has ordered his guards to summon Imperial Physician Fang’s daughter into the imperial palace . Although His Majesty is not 18 yet, the late Emperor had already possessed a room concubine servant at this age . The letter states that Imperial Physician Fang’s daughter has visited His Majesty’s repose palace a few times in a row . ”

Su Xi-er’s brows were knitted . “How old is Imperial Physician Fang’s daughter?” I knew that Imperial Physician Fang had a daughter, but wasn’t she already married? If another one has emerged, then wouldn’t she be his illegitimate daughter?

“She is 15 . ”

Su Xi-er nodded .  It must be his illegitimate daughter . Imperial Physician Fang is Yun Ruofeng’s trusted imperial physician . Lianchen must be using her to control Imperial Physician Fang, but… is having such a woman by his side good or bad?

After she thought about it for a while, Su Xi-er said, “If Lianchen really falls in love with her, then he can do whatever he wants with Imperial Physician Fang’s daughter . I can’t get involved in this . ” Besides, I believe that whoever Lianchen fancies will be a woman who is clever and understands the big picture .

“Feng Changqing, how’s your wound?” Su Xi-er changed the topic and looked at Feng Changqing’s arm .

“This subordinate has used a lot of flower powder, and the effect is great . I haven’t recovered completely, but my wound doesn’t hurt anymore . Prince Hao has ordered many flower growers to study the remaining 20 Lingrui flowers that we brought from Nanzhao in hopes that we can successfully transplant them . Everyone has been working hard . ”

Su Xi-er nodded and indifferently replied, “Pei Qianhao is very intelligent and far-sighted, possessing astute acumen . I don’t know why, but I think he will be successful in transplanting it . ”
