Chapter 119: Chapter 119: Princess Ennoblement (Thanks to Z for the monthly ticket with more updates)
Wang Dongxue: "...It’s a long story. Ask your second sister-in-law when we get back."
Zhu Xiuxiu: "From the sound of it, it seems like something big happened these past few days."
While Zhu Xiuxiu and Wang Dongxue were conversing, the young Emperor was over there thinking about the title for Xiaosuisui’s princess-ship.
"Even though you always call me ’Your Majesty Brother,’ I privately refer to your seventh and eighth uncles as my brothers. Today is an auspicious day. I will accept you as my adopted daughter and bestow upon you the title of Eldest Princess Chang Rongshunhe! From now on, may you bring prosperity to my Great Han, may its winds and rain be timely, and may all under heaven be harmonious!"
"’Eldest Princess?’"
Everyone gasped. How much expectation does His Majesty have for this little one to bestow such a title?
Ji Youyuan almost jumped up to object, "Your Majesty! This is inappropriate!"
"There’s nothing inappropriate about it. An adopted daughter is still a daughter. Even if I have more daughters in the future, they will all have to respect her as their elder sister. The title of Eldest Princess belongs to no one but her!"
The young Emperor insisted, and Ji Youyuan had no response. No one else had the ability or courage to object.
General Xu quickly knelt. "Your servant pays respect to Eldest Princess Chang Rongshunhe! May Your Highness live for a thousand years, a thousand thousand years!"
When General Xu knelt, the Soldiers immediately followed suit. The Ji Family, seeing this, were flustered and also knelt, except for Ji Youyuan, who remained in his wheelchair.
"Tell them to rise!" the young Emperor said to Xiaosuisui, whom he was holding.
Xiaosuisui didn’t understand what being a princess meant, but hearing the young Emperor, she copied him and shouted, "Rise!"
Everyone then stood up.
The entire troop, along with the prisoners of war from Nanjiang and the rescued children, returned to Xun’an County.
The Emperor’s Imperial Carriage stopping in Xun’an County scared the local County Magistrate half to death. Good heavens! The young man who, along with the National Master, had asked him about the Lucky Star was actually the current Emperor!
With the rosters in hand, the terrified County Magistrate ordered Head Constable Wang, who was now bald, to return all the rescued children to their parents. As for the abducted children from the Capital City, men had been sent ahead to the Capital City to inform their families, and arrangements were made to send them back.
Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief after accounting for the last child, a woman rushed in, asking why her child wasn’t there.
"What is your child’s name? According to the roster, all the children listed here have been claimed by their parents. Madam, is it possible your child wasn’t taken with this group?"
"She was taken with them! Sir, my child is the Lucky Star! How could she not be among them?"
Zhao Chunxiang, like many other parents, had spent the past few days searching everywhere and frequently visiting the County Yamen for news. Seeing other children reunited with their families but not finding Li Yanyan, she had rushed in to ask.
"What? The Lucky Star is your daughter?"
The County Magistrate’s expression changed instantly. The Lucky Star is destined for greatness! It’s said the National Master wants to take her as his disciple. This time, the Lucky Star was harmed by a Great Wizard from Nanjiang because of her immense good fortune. She was rescued but still hasn’t woken up. The National Master values her greatly and has been personally watching over her!
"Yes! Sir, where is my Yanyan?"
Zhao Chunxiang was incredibly anxious. She had also heard that the National Master intended to take her Yanyan as a disciple. Furthermore, the head of the direct lineage of the Li Clan in the Capital City had already sent people to escort their family back.
If this Lucky Star isn’t found, the Li Clan... Zhao Chunxiang looked at the County Magistrate with a mix of nervousness and trepidation.
"Congratulations, Madam Li! Your Lucky Star has a great destiny ahead of her. The National Master himself has said he wishes to take her as his disciple. I’ll take you to see the National Master right away!"
The County Magistrate quickly began to flatter Zhao Chunxiang, leading her towards the rear courtyard of the County Yamen.
As they reached the arched gateway to the rear courtyard, a small figure ran over from a distance and accidentally bumped into Zhao Chunxiang’s leg.
"OUCH!" the small figure cried, tumbling to the ground.
"You blind thing! Can’t you watch where you’re going? How dare you bump into me? Are you looking to die?" Zhao Chunxiang, smarting from the collision, immediately started cursing.
