Chapter 661: 652 Female Veneration: The Great God Above (7) More 2
Ni Lan was the trusted confidante of the Empress.
She knew that the Empress valued the Second Imperial Princess the most.
Naturally, she took the side of the Second Imperial Princess, so this act was also to earn favor in front of Qin Xuanyun and the Second Imperial Princess.
She had thought that after she finished speaking, Qin Xuanyun would ask who it was.
But unexpectedly, Qin Xuanyun’s expression didn’t change at all as he entered.
Ni Lan stood at the doorway, looking very puzzled...
This wasn’t like the General Qin known for his deep affection towards the Second Imperial Princess, was it?
On this side, Qin Xuanyun had no idea what Ni Lan was thinking.
Even if he did know, he wouldn’t care too much. After entering the room, he saw Qin Youming and the Second Imperial Princess and slightly bowed, "I’ve seen the Qin Consort and the Second Imperial Princess."
Although he said this, there was not a ripple of emotion in his downcast eyes.
In his past life, even the Emperor himself couldn’t afford such a grand gesture from him, the Emperor always treated him with additional respect.
Since he woke up a year ago in this world, nothing was able to stop his stride.
"Xuanyun, was the military campaign smooth this time?" The Qin family’s genes were truly exceptional; Qin Youming was an exceedingly ideal handsome man, otherwise, he wouldn’t have become the moonlight in the Empress’s heart, "Our Qin family is much indebted to you, and here is Mingxin as well, the two cousins who have always been close since childhood. This time, you should have a good chat together."
Qin Youming previously had no impression of this nephew.
All he knew was that he had always paid close attention to Ye Mingxin. Back when the Qin family was lesser in both household size and business, Qin Youming never considered treating Qin Xuanyun as a retainer for the Second Imperial Princess.
Wen Jin was more acceptable to him.
Now it was different. With Qin Xuanyun’s current stature, the Qin family was reliant on him, and Qin Youming dared not look down on this nephew.
The most important thing was...
Now that Qin Xuanyun had leaped over the danger, Qin Youming felt like he was suffocating just standing in front of Qin Xuanyun.
Too terrifying.
"The General is truly formidable, even the Barbarians fear you so much," the Second Imperial Princess’s eyes lit up at the sight of Qin Xuanyun.
She hadn’t expected that in just one year, Qin Xuanyun would have changed so completely.
The Second Imperial Princess had grown up in the Imperial Palace and was sharp as a tack. From a young age, she had understood how to read people and situations. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to lie low for so many years.
How could she have failed to notice the hidden admiration this cousin once had for her?
But back then, how could she possibly have set her sights on someone of low status, timid, and stiff like the young master of the Qin family? Yet she had never explicitly rejected him, instead, she had left him hanging.
In reality, the Second Imperial Princess quite enjoyed this feeling.
A year ago, when Qin Xuanyun suddenly decided to join the military, where was the sense in men joining the army?
The Qin family opposed it.
Yet, he left all the same.
Then on the battlefield, with his strength alone he stood against thousands, his fame rose in a single battle, shocking the entire Imperial Capital.
It was beyond expectation that in just one year, Qin Xuanyun could change so much. The people of the Qin family were not considered unattractive.
But the former Qin Xuanyun was very rigid. The current Qin Xuanyun exuded an air of nobility and mystery, as unreachable as clouds on the horizon.
The Second Imperial Princess had to admit that even compared to Wen Jin, this Qin Xuanyun was far superior.
The two were not even on the same level.
As she spoke, she naturally reached to clasp Qin Xuanyun’s arm.
However, before her hand could touch him, Qin Xuanyun avoided it. He lifted his head with a cold demeanor, "Consort Qin, Second Imperial Princess, if there’s nothing else, I must take my leave."
The Second Imperial Princess’s hand was left hanging in mid-air, clearly surprised by Qin Xuanyun’s action.
"You..." Before meeting Qin Xuanyun, the Second Imperial Princess was worried about being pursued by Qin Xuanyun, but after seeing him, she had no such thoughts at all, and even wanted to initiate closeness.
If her husband could be a man like this, then compared with Wen Jin... it doesn’t seem much different, does it?
She thought of many things, but never expected Qin Xuanyun to actively avoid her.
Qin Xuanyun took a step back and then inclined slightly before directly exiting Consort Qin’s sleeping chamber.
After leaving, he sighed softly.
He had initially thought this Second Imperial Princess might be the person he was looking for, but one glance told him she was not.
Not that he was looking forward to it that much.
After all, the Second Imperial Princess’s demeanor and the way she conducted herself was entirely different from that person.
If that person were in this world...
Inside Consort Qin’s sleeping chamber.
Qin Youming had intentionally set aside time for the Second Imperial Princess and Qin Xuanyun to be alone. He didn’t expect that after he ordered the imperial chef to prepare the meal and returned, he would see the Second Imperial Princess sitting alone by the table.
"Mingxin, where’s Xuanyun?" Qin Youming was puzzled.
Logically, having the rare chance to be alone with Ye Mingxin, Qin Xuanyun shouldn’t have left, right?
What was going on?
The Second Imperial Princess also found it very strange, "He has left the palace."
Qin Youming asked, "Did you tell him that you are currently grounded?"
"No," the Second Imperial Princess shook her head, "I didn’t think of it. I’ll tell him next time."
"Remember for sure," Qin Youming sneered coldly, "That eldest imperial daughter, relying on the Ye Family, has been bullying you constantly. But now our support has returned. Just wait and see."
**
Ye Shaohua, of course, was unaware of the schemes of Qin Youming and the Second Imperial Princess against her.
In the past, to show "favor", the Empress would visit Ye Shaohua and Jun Qing every day.
The next day, after the morning court session, she arrived again.
However, with Qin Xuanyun’s return, the Empress had a trump card, and since the last time Ye Shaohua had punished Ye Ming, the Empress’s fury towards Ye Shaohua reached its peak. Thus, during this visit to see Ye Shaohua and Jun Qing,
She didn’t carry the usual warm smile on her face.
It was even quite indifferent.
"Didn’t you go to study with the Prime Minister and the Chancellor today?" The Empress looked at Ye Shaohua and for the first time took a harsh tone, "The envoys from the Barbarian Country will arrive tomorrow. If they see that the imperial heir has such a disposition, how will they perceive our dynasty?"
Even Jun Qing was startled by the Empress’s harshness.
The young man near Ye Shaohua immediately knelt down with a "thud".
The wrath of the Empress was not something just anyone could withstand.
The young man only hoped that the Empress wouldn’t vent her anger on him, feeling deeper resentment towards Ye Shaohua for his frivolousness and uselessness, and lamenting why he couldn’t be a palace attendant for Ye Ming.
"Empress, Shaohua, she..." Jun Qing wanted to speak up after realizing what was happening.
"Silence!" the Empress sternly looked at Ye Shaohua, "Your second imperial sister presented a very impressive proposal for relief efforts in case of a flood to the Chancellor yesterday, which delighted the Ministry of Revenue. This morning they said that within ten years, the Yellow River won’t suffer another flood. Now look at you, always loafing around, what kind of example are you setting? When will you be like your second imperial sister..."
Hearing the Empress mention how effective the Second Imperial Princess’s policy discussion was, Jun Qing’s eyes widened.
It was at this moment that Jun Qing’s confidant respectfully bowed from outside, "Empress, the Chancellor asks for an audience."
The Empress was surprised, "The Chancellor, what is she doing here? Please invite the Chancellor in."
