My Crown Prince Consort Is a Firecracker!

“Sigh.” The yellow-clothed woman, Ming Qian, reached out to help her up. “Why torture yourself like this.”

“If you were willing to listen to me, you would not need to bash your head against a brick wall.” The yellow-clothed woman was extremely astute.

She was very clear that the queen dowager indeed doted on her master greatly, but all this was on the premise that she could not endanger her grandson.

The commandery princess and Xu’er had hidden their plans from her to sabotage His Highness the Crown Prince’s wedding. Their methods were truly too immature!

If someone were to investigate it, they would definitely find that the commandery princess was behind it. At that time, it would truly grind away the last bit of the queen dowager’s patience.

“Alright, Commandery Princess. You had best rest properly in your room. Do not go anywhere these few days. You also need to wipe out all traces of you hiring local thugs to make trouble. In case His Highness the Crown Prince finds time to investigate and finds you responsible, you will not even have time to regret.”

Commandery Princess Yi’an trembled. “You mean that, if h-he finds out that I was behind this, he w-would e-execute me in spite of the queen dowager??”

“His Highness is a ruthless person. Before doing this, you should have already been aware of the consequences. The Fan Clan should have served as your warning.” The yellow-clothed young lady walked outside after saying this.

She was in a hurry to deal with the commandery princess and Xu’er’s mess. Her veins were popping on her forehead, and she felt very frustrated.

Meanwhile, Commandery Princess Yi’an collapsed on her bed, and Xu’er quickly went up to soothe her breathing. “Commandery Princess Yi’an, Commandery Princess Yi’an, do not panic. With Ming Qian, there definitely will not be a problem.”

“Xu’er, I, I was not able to control myself.” Commandery Princess Yi’an collected herself with much difficulty before she muttered, “Th-There is still a chance, right? Xu’er, I still have a chance, right?”

“Right, right! Commandery Princess, where there is life there is hope! Commandery Princess, you must remain calm. In the future, you must not clash directly with that shrewd crown prince consort. We just need to secure the queen dowager’s favor. There will still be a chance then,” Xu’er reassured with repeated nods.

Commandery Princess Yi’an gazed tearfully at that lass.

Unlike Ming Qian, that lass who was mature in everything she did, such as being calculative and good at gaining people’s good will, Xu’er was straightforward and plain-spoken. She had always treated her words as royal edict and supported her fully.

Compared to Ming Qian, who was clever and hard to control, she actually liked Xu’er more.

Her normal reprimands toward Xu’er were mostly an act to prod her about how she should behave.

Commandery Princess Yi’an sat up and wiped the corners of her eyes with her silk handkerchief. Her mouth suddenly curled up into a smirk. “There is still a chance.”

Xu’er felt like the commandery princess was swearing a vow to Heaven when she spat out these five words. She had no idea whether the commandery princess wanted to persuade herself or persuade Heaven.

—-My Qiao’s section break—-

After Qiao Mu was sent to the Eastern Palace’s bedchamber, she did not idle about. She ate and drank after having people remove the heavy phoenix coronet from her head.

Shaoyao had accompanied her into the palace. Seeing that Qiao Mu couldn’t sit still, Shaoyao couldn’t help but be amused.

“Crown Prince Consort, His Highness the Crown Prince is still entertaining guests in the forecourt. There should still be some time before he can come over! How about I go to the kitchen to bring some pastries for you?”

Qiao Mu was eating a red date from the bed at the moment and looked up when she heard Shaoyao. “No need. There are so many dates and longans here¹, enough for me to eat.”
