The daughter of the first wife is a little fierce: the war god prince loves her to the sky

Chapter 118 General Yang Wei

Jinzhong stood in the center of the front yard of the East Palace and read the imperial edict loudly.

Everyone in the East Palace knelt down in a loud noise. Chu Tianyou in front of them had a livid expression on his face. "Your son accepts the order."

After standing up, Chu Tianyou spoke softly again, "Eunuch Jinzhong, do you know why our father…"

Jinzhong lowered his head and said calmly, "Your Highness, I don't know. Perhaps Your Majesty is thinking that the Crown Prince has been too tired from handling state affairs recently..."

Chu Tianyou knew that he was playing tricks, and then said calmly, "I know, thank you for your loyalty, eunuch."

After Jinzhong left, Bai Chuwan and Li Zhirou hurried forward, asking in panic, "What happened to Brother Tianyou? Why did the emperor confine us for no reason?"

Although the decree only asked Chu Tianyou to cultivate his character and not go out for the time being, since the prince did not go out, they naturally had to stay in the East Palace. Isn't this equivalent to house arrest?

Liu Shuyao frowned slightly and immediately stepped forward and scolded, "My two sisters, please be careful with your words. Father only asked Your Highness to rest in the East Palace and did not restrict others from going out."

Chu Tianyou was a little impatient with the two concubines surrounding him, "The Crown Princess is right, both of you should go back to your own courtyards, you are making me upset by all the quarreling here."

Bai Chuwan and Li Zhirou's expressions froze, they responded helplessly and left.

The two of them had been in the Eastern Palace for quite some time, and they had understood clearly that although the prince favored them, he still trusted Liu Shuyao the most. Although Liu Shuyao was pregnant and had many inconveniences, the power of the Eastern Palace was still firmly in Liu Shuyao's hands. Chu Tianyou had no intention of letting them take charge. They were concubines, but in fact they were more like concubines.

Liu Shuyao held Chu Tianyou's hand and spoke softly, "Don't worry, Your Highness. Judging from this decree, Father does not really doubt Your Highness's loyalty. He just wants to warn us. Your Highness, it's time to take a rest recently. I will go to pay my respects to the Queen Mother and explain the matter."

Chu Tianyou also relaxed and chuckled, "With Shuyao by my side, I feel much less worried..."

The Crown Prince was suddenly ordered to stay in the East Palace and not go out. The court officials were a little uneasy, especially those who were in the Crown Prince's party. They acted very cautiously, fearing that they would arouse the suspicion of His Majesty.

In the Liuli Courtyard study, Bai Chuxiao smiled indifferently after receiving the news. Emperor Wenxuan was really tolerant of the prince, but it was unknown how long he could tolerate him. Chu Tianyou was quite capable. He didn't even need to be framed by others. He would repeatedly jump on Emperor Wenxuan's bottom line. Fortunately, he was born into a good family and was the legitimate son...

"Hey……"

Lan Xiang asked in confusion, "Why is the princess sighing?"

Bai Chuxiao blinked, "This princess is just lamenting that comparison is the thief of anger!"

Lanxiang was still a little confused. The young lady's words were becoming more and more profound.

"Sister Xiao is right," Murong Xuan, dressed in white, walked in with a smile.

Bai Chuxiao was a little surprised, "Second brother, why are you here?"

Murong Xuan whispered, "Just came back from Zhaoyun Peak"

Bai Chuxiao blinked, "How?"

Murong Xuan's eyes flashed with surprise, "Second brother, I want to join too"

Bai Chuxiao smiled slightly, "Second brother, stop joking. Grandfather is coming back soon. What are your plans? Will you go back to Dingzhou with Grandfather or follow Chu Tianze?"

Murong Xuan spoke slowly, "It depends on what Grandfather thinks, and also on what Xi Han thinks."

Bai Chuxiao chuckled, "Second brother has grown up and knows how to discuss this with Second Sister-in-law."

Murong Xuan knocked her head in annoyance, "How disrespectful! You're making fun of me. I came here today to tell you that Grandfather, Big Brother, and Third Brother have already left. Brother Hui will not be back until the results are out in mid-September, so he's still in time."

Bai Chuxiao raised her eyebrows, "It seems that Brother Hui did well in the exam."

Murong Xuan nodded and said, "It will be no problem for him to pass the imperial examination, but he is still young and may not get good results in the examination next spring."

Bai Chuxiao chuckled, "Brother Youhui is going to be a civil servant, so you can rest assured, second brother."

"Not bad!"

A few days later, the capital was in an uproar again, because Yu Fengyang, the eldest son of the Yu family, actually announced that he had left the Yu family and would have nothing to do with the Yu family from now on. Old Master Yu, who had always loved Yu Fengyang, also acquiesced for the first time. Everyone couldn't help but feel sorry that he had to leave his position as the eldest son of a noble family and run away to set up his own family.

Madam Yu and Second Master Yu were extremely delighted. Yu Fengyang was willing to give up the position of Crown Prince, so they didn't have to fight for it anymore. This was truly a godsend.

Emperor Wen Xuan, who always hated aristocratic families, just said softly when he received the news, "He is a smart one."

Just when everyone was secretly laughing at Yu Fengyang's brain being stuck in the door, an imperial decree came from the palace, affirming Yu Fengyang's past military exploits on the border, and praising him for not being greedy for power and being a rare young talent, and specially appointed him as the fourth-rank general Yangwei.

Emperor Wenxuan's sudden decree was like a slap in the face to the group of people who were watching the joke. Although the fourth-rank official position was not high, it was still a real official position. Madam Yu and the second son Yu were not happy. In their eyes, Yu Fengyang was just an ordinary citizen after leaving the Yu family and should have lived a miserable life. Now he has turned into a general. However, in the eyes of other noble families, it was different. His Majesty's move was clearly sending a signal to the noble families...

Yu Fengyang bought a house not far from Prince Yan's Mansion. He didn't want to write "Yu Mansion" and was worried about what to write on the door plaque. After the decree came out, there was no need to worry about it. He just hung up the words "Yangwei General's Mansion" in large letters.

Chu Tianze, Bai Chuxiao and Murong Xuan all came to General Yang Wei's residence, firstly to celebrate his appointment as an official, and secondly to congratulate him on his new home.

Yu Fengyang left the Yu family and finally fulfilled his long-cherished wish. He felt more relaxed and at ease. Looking at the friends who came in, he couldn't help but joked, "It's a great honor for me to have you here."

Chu Tianze glanced at him calmly and spat out two words, "waste"

Yu Fengyang glared back angrily, "Chu...Tian...Ze, Princess, it's ok for you to come, but why did you bring him with you!"

Bai Chuxiao was used to the way these two people got along, so she smiled and said, "Congratulations, General Yang Wei."

Yu Fengyang was helpless, "Don't make fun of me, a fourth-rank official princess."

Murong Xuan glanced at him and said, "Brother Yu doesn't like it anymore."

Emperor Wenxuan was never generous, so this position was not low. His uncle had been guarding the northwest for many years, but he was only a third-rank military officer. Of course, Emperor Wenxuan was also suspicious of the Murong family.

Yu Fengyang waved his folding fan and teased, "Brother Murong, don't worry. Follow me and you will be promoted to an official position in no time."

Without waiting for Murong Xuan to speak, Chu Tianze said calmly, "You are so proud of yourself, do the people of the Murong family need to hang out with you?"

Yu Fengyang gritted his teeth and said, "Humph, you three are not a family yet, but you just team up to bully me!"

Bai Chuxiao pulled Chu Tianze's sleeve and said helplessly, "Okay, don't be angry with him anymore."
