In the Grand Royal Residence of De Ning, the Princess Royal put down the bowl and wiped the medicine from the corner of her mouth. After rinsing her mouth, she said: "Did the Yin Clan send something over again?"
"Isn't that so? She's too filial. Usually, when she gets something new, she likes to send it here. This old servant tried to persuade her, but she wasn't willing to listen." The Princess Royal's most respected servant, Chang Mama, said with a smile, "This servant can't do anything about it. Why don't you go and persuade her?"
The Princess Royal stared at Chang Mama with a smile, "Look at your mouth …"
"Your Highness," the housekeeper walked in with a smile on his face, "Junjun and Shizi sent someone to send something over."
The Princess Royal looked at the things that the guards brought in. There were some pheasants, hares, birds, and other things. These things weren't rare, but what was rare was the sister and brother's sincerity.
The Princess Royal smiled and let the people put these things away. She turned to Chang Mama and said: "It seems that they had a lot of fun at the hunting ground."
"Young people all like to be lively." Chang Mama thought for a moment and added, "Junjun is becoming more and more doting. During this time, she came here to see you every few days. It can be seen that she relies on you, her grandmother, from the bottom of her heart."
"Although this child is a little arrogant, her nature is very good. If …" The Princess Royal paused, "In the future, you can go to Huahua to serve. I only have one granddaughter. With you by her side, I can feel more at ease. "
"Your Highness!" Chang Mama looked at the Princess Royal in horror, "What do you want this old servant to do?"
She entered the palace at the age of nine. At the age of thirteen, she was assigned to the Grand Royal Residence by the Department of Household Affairs to serve. At the age of twenty, she combed her own hair. She had served in the Princess Residence for a full thirty years. When she was in the Princess Residence, Marquis was only about ten years old, and the Prince Consort was still there.
Thirty years passed in the blink of an eye. The beautiful Princess Royal became the most respected Princess Royal in the Great Cause Dynasty. Her grandchildren also reached the age to talk about marriage. As she watched the Princess Royal grow old bit by bit, she couldn't wait for time to slow down a little more.
"You silly girl, in order to serve me in this lifetime, you didn't marry, and you don't have any descendants. After I die, what will you do?" The Princess Royal coughed a few times. "Huahua is the most considerate to the people around her. You've seen a lot of ups and downs in the capital with me. Only by following Huahua can I be at ease with her and you."
"Your Highness," Chang Mama almost choked with sobs, "Today, he owes you!"
"Born in the royal family, we only care about winning and losing, not about what we owe." The Princess Royal smiled sarcastically. "I already have a good ending. My poor sisters …"
Decades ago, during the struggle for the throne, the princes either died, were imprisoned, or went crazy. Several princesses of golden branches and jade leaves were married, but in the end, they died without knowing why. Among her sisters, she was the only one who lived to this day, the most honorable Princess Royal in the Imperial Court.
Unfortunately, under the name of the Princess Royal, there were too many shameful things, too much hatred and helplessness. She was already over sixty years old, and she didn't want to remember it.
"Tonight, we'll stew pheasant soup." The Princess Royal smiled faintly. "Our family's Huahua personally hunted the pheasant, it must taste good."
"Yes." Chang Mama wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, bowed to the Princess Royal, and left with a straight back.
The Emperor and the courtiers had already stayed in the Imperial Hunting Ground in the suburbs of the capital for three days. The Emperor had enjoyed himself to the fullest, so naturally, it was time for him to go home.
"Commandery Princess Ban is indeed the descendant of a general. Among the women, you hunted the most game." The Emperor Yunqing looked at Ban Han and didn't hide his love for the Ban Family. "Tell me, is there anything you want?"
Ban Han shook her head honestly. "Your Majesty, I don't lack anything right now."
"When I see you, I think of my uncle, who bravely killed the enemy on the battlefield." Yunqing sighed. "When I was young, he taught me archery. I didn't expect …"
The prince consort of the Princess Royal was a famous general in the Great Ye Dynasty. Or rather, the generals of several generations of the Ban Family had made great contributions to the Jiang Family. Unfortunately …
The courtiers present glanced at Ban Huai. The reputation of the Ban Family for several generations was ruined when it came to Ban Huai.
Ban Huai felt that someone was looking at him, so he straightened his back. What are you looking at? It's useless to be jealous. I just have a great father who is destined to be remembered forever!
When the courtiers saw that Ban Huai wasn't ashamed at all, and even had a proud look on his face, they all shook their heads in their hearts. Rotten wood can't be carved. The Ban Family is finished.
"Your Majesty, this subject's daughter's archery was also taught by my grandfather." Ban Yu gave a big smile. "Grandfather said, if I was born a man, I would definitely be a valiant general under Your Majesty."
Emperor Yunqing looked at the delicate little girl in front of him. He really couldn't connect her with the fierce general with a face full of whiskers. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this scene was funny. He couldn't help but laugh. "Good, good, good. Women are really not inferior to men. General Ban taught you well."
Everyone present was speechless.
A good little girl was taught to be unruly and willful. She said that she would use a whip to whip people, but she definitely didn't use a stick. She didn't have the gentle aura of a woman at all. It was a waste of the good face that her parents gave her.
Was His Majesty praising or insulting her?
Regardless of whether or not the Emperor had two meanings, Ban Han smiled happily after being praised. She graciously bowed to Emperor Yunqing. "Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty. I don't deserve it."
"My aunt is someone I respect. General Ban is someone I respect. You are their only granddaughter. Every time I think about how I didn't take good care of you, I feel ashamed." Emperor Yunqing sighed again. "I even heard that someone insulted you because your title wasn't high enough. After I heard about this, I don't know how I will face my aunt in the future. "
When the courtiers heard this, they felt that something was wrong. This Junjun Ban even beat up the Tanhua of the imperial court. Who would dare to offend her?
Wang De stood next to Emperor Yunqing. His expression didn't change from beginning to end.
As His Majesty's personal attendant, he naturally had to tell His Majesty everything he saw. He couldn't delete anything, and naturally, he couldn't add any details.
Princess Kang Ning, who was standing among the women, felt her cheeks burning when she heard Emperor Yunqing's words. Every word that His Majesty said was like a slap to her face. She swayed and almost sat on the ground.
"Junzhu," Shi Feixian, who was by her side, supported her, "Are you alright?"
Kang Ning forced a smile and shook her head.
Shi Feixian let go of her and smiled. "That's good."
She looked at Ban Han, who was standing in front of the throne. She adjusted her sleeves and slowly looked away.
"Your Majesty …" Ban Han hesitated. "No one bullied me. Don't be sad."
Five years later, even if someone bullied her, no one would be able to save her.
"Good child," Emperor Yunqing smiled in relief. "Although you are only my niece, in my heart, you are no different from my daughter."
When the Count Of Zhongping heard Emperor Yunqing's words, his face became uncomfortable. The bad debt between his family and the Ban Family was still a topic of conversation in the capital. No wonder the Xie Family hadn't been put in an important position in court for the past two years. He was afraid that the Emperor was angry with them.
He really didn't understand why his obedient son would elope with a prostitute, causing the Xie Family and the Ban Family to become enemies.
Even now, the Count Of Zhongping was still thinking about whether it would be better to marry a shrewish and extravagant daughter-in-law, or if it would be better to have his son's reputation ruined, his eyes disabled, the Xie Family and the Ban Family become enemies, and the Emperor didn't put him in an important position.
Probably … it would be better to marry an unruly and willful daughter-in-law.
At least this daughter-in-law had a respectable grandmother and was doted on by the Emperor. For a family like his, which didn't have a strong foundation, this was definitely a good thing.
He only hated his son for not living up to his expectations. Now, there was no use in regretting.
"I am guilty. I want to make it up to you."
The courtiers looked at the Emperor expressionlessly. He had so many tricks up his sleeves. Wasn't he just trying to promote this unruly Ban Junjun? It was just a woman's title. It wouldn't affect the court whether it was higher or lower. Their hearts didn't waver.
Ban Han tilted his head. The Emperor wanted to make it up to her?
Could it be that he wanted to find her a handsome husband?
"My uncle was a pillar of the country when he was alive. My aunt treated me like her own son. Her granddaughter is like half a daughter to me. I think that if she isn't a Junjun, she doesn't deserve to be half a Countess." Emperor Yunqing knocked on the armrest of the throne. "Marquis Jingting's daughter has the style of her grandmother. She is half a daughter to me. She should be given the title of Junjun and the title of Fule."
Ban Han was stunned for a while. Then he remembered to thank the Emperor Yunqing for his kindness.
However, the Emperor said that other than the title of Junjun, no other titles were worthy of her. Then, were her previous titles of Lord Xiang and Junjun used to humiliate her?
