My Unrivaled Princess: I Won’t Mess With You
Chapter 89 - May I Call You QianqianChapter 89: May I Call You Qianqian
Pain hit Yue Qiqi with crippling strength, but she gnashed her teeth and tried her best to act nothing had happened.
General Yue’s rebuke had actually saved Yue Qiqi, she was secretly glad she didn’t have to suffer one more time. Luo Yuyan supported Yue Qiqi and walked back to her seat.
The emperor was impressed by Luo Yuyan, this little girl was pretty green, but she could take Yue Qiqi down, her future was beyond measure.
“Qianqian, that was great! Prime Minister Luo, you have such a good daughter… …”, the emperor heaped praise on Prime Minister Luo.
But Luo Qianqian could tell the emperor grew more hostile against her… …
The emperor soon inquired Yue Qiqi and asked her whether she needed an Imperial Doctor to check on her.
Yue Qiqi shook her head and replied, “Your Majesty, thank you for your kindness. I’m fine, and I’s like to say victory and defeat are both common in battle, don’t get too carried away, Miss. Luo.”
‘Luo Qianqian, this is our first fight, yes you won. But this it definitely not over! I will get back at you!’ Yue Qiqi swore.
The gathering resumed after this competition, louder and more festive than before. People talked and laughed cheerfully and toasted time and again in a very lively atmosphere.
Imperial Noble Consort excused herself shortly after.
Murong Xue was the second.
Soon Murong Yun took Luo Qianqian away too.
Murong Yun didn’t even bother to make an excuse, and no one dared to inquire him, they had to just watch him leaving with Luo Qianqian.
The emperor stared at Murong Yun and Luo Qianqian’s retiring figures, his eyes smoldered with anger.
The emperor was glad Murong Yun had contracted Frigid Poison and there was no cure, otherwise he was afraid he couldn’t even fall asleep at night.
The emperor was intimidated by Murong Yun’s achievements on the battlefield, and the fiancee he arranged for Murong Yun turned to be a very competent young lady instead of a good-for-nothing! No wonder the emperor was hostile to Luo Qianqian.
Luo Qianqian was glad Murong Yun had taken her away from that hall, she didn’t like social occasions.
They walked in the Imperial Palace, holding hands. The breeze was fresh and the bright moon silvered everything high and low.
Luo Qianqian admired the beauty of the palaces in awe. The lanterns, the carriages and the buildings all evoked an ethereal splendor defying description, Luo Qianqian was lost in the moment.
She asked Murong Yun after a while, “Isn’t today the Imperial Noble Consort’s birthday as well?”
Luo Qianqian found it odd that no one had even mentioned that in the hall, let alone offering birthday congratulations to her.
“Yes, it is.”
“Are we… are we going to see the Imperial Noble Consort now?” Luo Qianqian beamed.
Murong Yun stroked her hair and said, “You should call her mother now.”
Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes, “Not yet, we are not married.”
“It doesn’t matter.” Murong Yun pressed his lips.
‘Married? Qianqian, what if there’s no cure to my Frigid Poison?’
Murong Yun shook his head, trying to concentrate.
The Imperial Noble Consort resided in Red Joy Palace, a place as magnificent as the empress’s palace.
Red Joy Palace was heavily guarded, and they bowed to Murong Yun when they saw him walking towards the gate, “Greetings, Prince Eighth.”
Then they bowed to Luo Qianqian, “Greetings, Your Highness.”
Luo Qianqian wasn’t surprised they knew who she was, she thought it must be Murong Xue who had informed them just now.
They walked into the palace while being greeted along the way from the gate to the inner chamber.
Murong Xue heard that in the chamber and ran towards them happily, “Sister-in-law! Brother! You are here!”
Murong Xue took hold of Luo Qianqian’s arm habitually and leaned her head towards on her shoulder.
“Xue, let me take a good look at you, let me see if you are drunk.” Luo Qianqian teased.
Murong Xue stuck her tongue out, “I’m not drunk, I have a hollow leg.”
“Is that Yun?” the Imperial Noble Consort asked gently in the chamber.
The three walked to the chamber, Luo Qianqian finally had a chance to take a close look at this beautiful woman, she had changed to casual wear, but the plain gown only added her beauty and made her more human-being like.
“Mother, great news, not only has my brother come, he had also brought my sister-in-law.” Murong Xue said cheerfully.
The Imperial Noble Consort had heard so much about Luo Qianqian from Murong Xue, she had long been wished to meet Luo Qianqian, the girl who had won her son’s heart.
At dinner just now, she met Luo Qianqian for the first time, she just thought Luo Qianqian lived up to her reputation beauty wise. And she was even more glad when Luo Qianqian threw herself into the breach when the empress asked her about the present.
She was glad for her son that his fiancee was not just a beautiful girl, but also she was resourceful and courageous.
“Qianqian, May I call you Qianqian?” the Imperial Noble Consort asked gently.
Luo Qianqian nodded her head, she was completely bewitched by the Imperial Noble Consort’s beauty, she lost her ability to speak for a brief moment.
“Qianqian, I need to thank you for saving me at dinner. The empress would have make a big deal out of if not for you, I owe you one, good girl.” the Imperial Noble Consort reached her hand, signaling Luo Qianqian to come forward.
“Would you like to sit next to me?” the Imperial Noble Consort asked, while she kept looking at Murong Yun, as if she were looking for his opinion.
Murong Yun smiled and took a seat on the other side, this meat ‘fine by me.’
“You are flattering me, Your Highness.” Luo Qianqian took a seat next to the Imperial Noble Consort.
“Your Highness, I heard today is your birthday, here’s a gift for you, please accept it.” with it Luo Qianqian produced an exquisite box from her sleeve.
The Imperial Noble Consort opened the box, it was a green jade bracelet.
‘I heard greed jade could help dispel all the care and anxiety, it helps the owner to get better sleep at night. I hope you will like it, Your Highness.” said Luo Qianqian.
“Thank you, Qianqian, I like it very much. I have an unreasonable demand, can you call me mother just like Yun and Xue?” the Imperial Noble Consort fondled the bracelet.
Luo Qianqian blushed crimson, while Murong Xue chuckled and encouraged her, “Yes, sister-in-law!”
“Mo… mother.” Luo Qianqian whispered.
