Chapter 233: The Heroine Whose Luck Was Taken Away
"Xiao Xing'er!"
Seeing this, Chen Shuhuan rushed towards Ye Ruoxing and used his body to block the scalding tea for her.
……
"Son!"
"My son, my son!"
……
Two voices sounded at the same time, and Chen Shuhuan felt a pain on his back, but he still hurried to check on Ye Ruoxing's condition. Seeing that she was not injured, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Ye Ruoxing helped Chen Shuhuan to stand up. Seeing Chen Shuhuan's hidden discomfort, she got angry for a moment.
"Princess, we respect your noble status, but how can you bully others by abusing your power? Moreover, your general has fought in the battlefield for the people to live and work in peace and contentment, and for our own safety. He has suffered countless wounds."
As she spoke, she seemed to choke up a bit, her eyes reddening. "Do you know that the place you so willfully splashed tea on today is where General Chen once fought desperately with the enemy, his life was in danger many times, and he was seriously injured here? How could you wantonly splash hot tea on his old wounds because of a momentary joy, anger, or sorrow?"
"He's a hero who risked his own life numerous times for his country and his people. As a member of the royal family, how could you treat a general who conquered the Wolf's Lair like this? Aren't you afraid of chilling the hearts of the people?"
Chen Shuhuan originally wanted to comfort Ye Ruoxing, but after hearing what she said, he was stunned for a few seconds. It was true that he had fought with others on the battlefield, but he was not injured anywhere. Besides, he was not as miserable as she said. In fact, he was still quite powerful.
Could it be that Xiao Xing'er doesn't know her true strength...
Although Chen Shuhuan was still confused, everyone around him shed tears because of these words.
Several generals' families also wiped their tears and whispered, "Exactly. Our husbands fought desperately outside, are they going to let people trample on them like this when they come back?"
"The princess is truly too brutal. How could she wantonly humiliate a general like this in public without any reason?"
"I wonder if General Chen's old injuries will relapse."
The system looked at the eldest princess who was at a loss and sighed silently. He felt very sorry for the eldest princess. She could have provoked anyone else but the fox.
A tear from the fox can make you kneel down.
Old Lady Wu was also angry. She had an imperial decree and was a person of some weight. She pulled Chen Shuhuan to her side and examined him carefully again.
After the series of events just now, she had already decided on Chen Shuhuan as her grandson-in-law. Old Lady Wu saw all of his protection of Ruoxing.
She liked Chen Shuhuan from the bottom of her heart. Ruoxing had suffered too much in the past few years, and she needed someone who could protect her. Chen Shuhuan was a good example.
[Congratulations to the host, you have regained 53% of your luck. Keep up the hard work.]
Before Jiang Yuan could think of a solution, the emperor arrived. He already knew what had happened here and came in with a gloomy face.
When everyone saw the emperor come in, they immediately knelt down and saluted.
"Your Majesty, long live the emperor."
The emperor entered the room and nodded, asking everyone to get up first.
He first looked at Chen Shuhuan and asked him with concern, "Shuhuan, are you okay?"
Minister Shu Huan immediately knelt down and replied, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am fine. I will just apply some burn ointment when I get home."
The emperor nodded and said, "It is my fault for not raising my daughter well. The eldest princess has caused such trouble this time. Don't worry, I will definitely give you an explanation."
After saying that, the emperor looked at Jiang Yuan, his expression extremely bad. "You've really gone too far today. What are you still standing here for? Go back to your palace quickly and reflect on your mistakes."
"Pa!" The emperor slapped Jiang Yuan in the face with a loud slap. He looked at the maid beside Jiang Yuan and said, "Why don't you take the princess back to the palace quickly?"
Jiang Yuan was slapped. She covered her face and left crying with the palace maid serving her.
After Jiang Yuan left, the emperor turned his gaze to Ye Ruoxing. He saw this beautiful girl again, but why was she behind Chen Shuhuan?
The emperor looked at Ye Ruoxing meaningfully and said, "We meet again."
Ye Ruoxing bowed and said, "I, the humble girl Ye Ruoxing, greet the Emperor. Long live the Emperor."
The emperor nodded and said, "Stand up."
Minister Shu Huan saw that the emperor's eyes were not right when he looked at Ye Ruoxing. As a man, he could not help but worry, so he said to the emperor, "I am all wet, which is really unsightly. Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I need to change my clothes first."
The emperor nodded, but his eyes remained on Ye Ruoxing. Minister Shu Huan took the opportunity to take Ye Ruoxing away. He said, "Ruoxing, you were also splashed with tea just now. Let's go change clothes first."
Ye Ruoxing knew that it was time to leave, although she had previously thought about entering the palace and using the emperor to provoke Jiang Wuchen.
However, she didn't really want to be favored by the emperor. The emperor's eyes were so sharp when he looked at her just now. As a charming vixen, she naturally knew what the emperor's eyes meant.
She sighed silently, "What can I do? It's all because this fox is so charming." Seeing her narcissistic and arrogant appearance, the system couldn't help but sigh and urged her, "You stinky fox, don't forget your main task. The target you need to capture now is Jiang Wuchen, not Chen Shuhuan or the emperor. You should quickly go find Jiang Wuchen."
The system watched her circling around the two men and became extremely anxious. How come this stinky fox was so patient this time?
The fox smiled slightly, "You don't understand. Just wait, Jiang Wuchen will come to me himself."
system:? ? ?
What has this cunning fox done behind his back?
……
After changing her clothes, Ye Ruoxing prepared to go back to see her grandmother. When she and Chen Shuhuan were walking back together, they were stopped by a young eunuch.
"Miss Ye, the emperor's uncle wants to see you."
Ye Ruoxing didn't seem surprised at all. She nodded and replied, "Yes."
Chen Shuhuan didn't know why the emperor's uncle was looking for Xiao Xing'er, but he was worried that Ye Ruoxing would be scared if she went alone, so he decided to accompany Ye Ruoxing.
But after taking two steps, he was stopped by the eunuch, who said to Chen Shuhuan, "General Chen, the emperor's uncle has not summoned you. Please go back."
Although Minister Shu Huan was worried, he did not follow because of his status as the emperor's uncle.
The young eunuch led Ye Ruoxing to a quiet pavilion, which was very similar to the place where they had met before. It was obvious that the emperor's uncle liked such places very much.
But this time, Jiang Wuchen did not meditate or chant. He just lay on the chair, rubbing his eyebrows with one hand, as if he had a headache.
