Tang Xiaohan was a princess, the most doted daughter of the emperor.
She was known as the number one beauty of Grand Xia. She was akin to a bright pearl. No matter where she went, she would emit a resplendent glow that couldn't be concealed.
There were countless people who wanted to be her son-in-law. When she was betrothed to Yang Wu, many people cursed behind her back, "A fresh flower stuck in a pile of cow dung."
Reality proved that Yang Wu wasn't a pile of cow dung. He was the most outstanding genius of Great Xia and was worthy of Tang Xiaohan.
Through her observation of Yang Wu, Tang Xiaohan felt that Yang Wu was indeed a man worthy of her heart. He was also the ideal man in her heart. This was the reason why she took the initiative to come to the Yang Clan.
Yang Wu didn't expect Tang Xiaohan to be so domineering, asking such a question in front of his parents. She was simply putting pressure on his parents.
Yang Zhennan and Su Roumei did indeed feel a great deal of pressure. Fortunately, Yang Zhennan had already broken through to the peak of the King Realm and recovered his perseverance. He looked at Tang Xiaohan and said, "Princess, please forgive us. I'll ask Yang Wu to come over and explain to you clearly. The two of us can't do anything to him."
Yang Zhennan immediately pushed the blame to Yang Wu, which could be considered as resolving the awkward situation between the two of them.
Tang Xiaohan didn't know how to continue for a moment. Her face was burning. Her original intention was to use her status to intimidate Yang Zhennan and Su Roumei so that they could put pressure on Yang Wu. She could see that Yang Wu was a filial person. Perhaps he would listen to his parents and accept her. Unfortunately, she was too naive.
Yang Wu walked over to Tang Xiaohan and said with a smile, "Princess, you are very beautiful, very beautiful. If you want me to marry you, it's very easy. However, you have to be my fifth concubine. Are you willing?"
"How dare you." After hearing Yang Wu's words, the palace maid beside Tang Xiaohan couldn't help but reprimand Yang Wu.
This palace maid had a good relationship with Tang Xiaohan. She respected her master in everything and didn't allow the princess to be bullied. Yang Wu's words were indeed too presumptuous. She couldn't help but reprimand her.
Tang Xiaohan waved her hand at the palace maid and asked her to step back. However, the palace maid was still glaring at Yang Wu, as if she wanted to duel with Yang Wu.
Yang Wu smiled and said, "Your palace maid is good."
"Of course, Xiao Hong has been with me for several years." Tang Xiaohan replied. She paused for a moment before continuing, "You want me, a princess, to be your fifth concubine. Aren't you afraid of being criticized by the world for saying such words?"
"I even dare to disobey the imperial edict. What is there to be afraid of? Your Royal Highness, put away your little tricks." Yang Wu lifted Tang Xiaohan's chin and said in an extremely domineering manner.
Yang Wu's behavior was too unreasonable. However, he had enough confidence to be unreasonable. Just as he said, he didn't even fear the imperial edict. How could he put Her Royal Highness in his eyes?
If it was someone else who said such rebellious words, they would have been beheaded. However, Yang Wu didn't care about this. It wasn't that he didn't respect the current emperor. He just wanted to be reasonable.
Tang Xiaohan faced Yang Wu's overbearing aura and decisively retreated. Her eyes repeatedly retreated. Yang Wu's offensive action not only didn't make her angry, but instead made her heart beat like a deer. Her whole body felt like it was being struck by lightning. This kind of feeling couldn't be described with words.
"Wu 'er, don't be impudent to the Princess!" Su Roumei reprimanded Yang Wu.
Yang Wu quickly retracted his hand as if he had been electrocuted. He smiled dryly at his mother and said: "Mother, I was just joking with the Princess."
In this world, the only person who could make Yang Wu obedient was his mother. There was no one else in this world.
"The Princess's body is priceless. In the future, you must not offend your superiors. Our Yang Family has been loyal for generations. We can't ignore the law. We can't ignore the royal family." Su Roumei reprimanded Yang Wu very strictly.
Yang Wu was like a child who made a mistake. He lowered his face and said: "Mother, I know. I won't do it again next time."
Tang Xiaohan looked at Yang Wu's appearance. She wanted to laugh but was too embarrassed to laugh. She thought in her heart: "So this guy is afraid of his mother. This is good."
"Alright, don't stand here. Let's go back to the house and talk." Yang Zhennan said.
Thus, Yang Zhennan, Su Roumei, Yang Wu, Tang Xiaohan, Wan Tianlong and Wan Lanxin walked towards the Yang Family's main hall.
In this group of people, Tang Xiaohan was still the leader. She obediently hugged Su Roumei's arm and said intimately: "Countess, you're so nice."
Su Roumei couldn't shake off Tang Xiaohan's arm. She also felt that Tang Xiaohan was good looking and matched her son's age. She was also so obedient. She felt that her son being together with her wasn't a bad choice.
After the group of people arrived at the Yang Family's main hall, they all sat down. Yang Zhennan asked someone to serve tea. He looked around and didn't know what to say.
After drinking a mouthful of tea, he took the lead and said to the Princess: "It's an honor for the Princess to come to our humble home."
Tang Xiaohan replied: "Count Yang, I apologize for what happened just now."
"Princess, you don't have to be like this. We should be the ones apologizing." Yang Zhennan replied.
Tang Xiaohan didn't know how to continue. The others were even more embarrassed to speak. Their gazes fell on Yang Wu as if to say: "You caused this. You should solve it."
Yang Wu scratched the back of his head and laughed dryly: "Princess, why did you come just like that? You should have informed us in advance so that we could welcome you."
"Aren't we friends?" Tang Xiaohan didn't answer the question.
"Of course we're friends. Although I rejected the marriage, my respect for the Princess is like a torrential river." Yang Wu patted his chest and said.
When the people present heard Yang Wu's words, they all wanted to vomit on the spot. Just now he was flirting with the Princess, and now he said such words. It was simply too shameless.
Tang Xiaohan felt that Yang Wu's words were not good. She looked at Yang Wu and said: "Yang Wu, don't always mention the marriage. You didn't reject it, and I don't blame you. I haven't seen you before, and my heart was also against it. I don't want to marry a stranger. Now I think you're not bad, so I want to get along with you."
After saying that, her face turned red.
This was the second time she said such bold words. It was to reveal her feelings to the people present. For a girl, it was indeed a very embarrassing thing, not to mention she was a Princess.
Wan Lanxin looked at Tang Xiaohan with a higher degree of respect. She felt that the Princess was quite good, daring to fight for the person she liked.
Su Roumei helped Tang Xiaohan and said: "Wu 'er, the Princess is very good. You can't let her down."
These words showed that she approved of Tang Xiaohan's existence.
Compared to Wan Lanxin and Meng Bingxue, she approved of Tang Xiaohan more. It wasn't that she was snobbish, but in terms of age and personality, the Princess was more suitable.
Wan Lanxin's face was a little gloomy. Her confidence, which she had worked so hard to gather, was shattered by the blow.
Since ancient times, if a daughter-in-law received the approval of her mother-in-law, she could basically enter half the door.
When Tang Xiaohan heard that Su Roumei supported her, she was incomparably happy. Her autumn eyes kept looking at Yang Wu, waiting to see what he would say. She only hoped that he wouldn't say such hurtful words again.
Yang Wu really couldn't refute Su Roumei's words. He replied: "Mother, the Princess and I are friends. We will get along well." Then he looked at Wan Tianlong and said: "Uncle Wan, you talk to my father and the others. Sister Lanxin and I are going out to do something."
"Where are you going?" Yang Zhennan asked.
Yang Wu hesitated a bit and said: "The Royal Academy."
"What are you going there for?" Yang Zhennan asked again.
"I have something to do. I have an appointment with their Vice Principal."
"Oh, but the Princess is still here."
Su Roumei said: "Wu 'er, bring the Princess along to play. You young people have a lot to talk about. It's not good to leave the Princess here. What do you think, Princess?"
"Okay, I'm very familiar with the academy. I'll bring Yang Wu." Tang Xiaohan agreed without thinking.
She had already seen that Yang Wu and Wan Lanxin's relationship was not ordinary. If she wanted to be together with Yang Wu, she had to take action. If she sat and waited, she would never be able to be together with Yang Wu.
Yang Wu was a very outstanding man with character. He could already challenge the Royal Family. He was beginning to break away from the boundaries of the secular world. If she wanted to get him, she had to get along with him first.
She also wanted to understand if Yang Wu was really suitable for her.
Yang Wu was ten thousand times unwilling to be together with Tang Xiaohan. It was not that he disliked Tang Xiaohan, but Wan Lanxin was by his side. How was he supposed to face her?
He could not go against his mother's words. He could only nod and say: "Then I'll have to trouble Your Highness to lead the way."
"You're welcome. Shall we go now?" Tang Xiaohan smiled and replied. She found that she liked to see Yang Wu's defeated appearance.
"Let's go. There's nothing for you to eat even if you stay." Yang Wu said in a bad mood. He then led the way and walked out.
Outside the courtyard, he called out to a corner: "Son of a turtle, come here."
In the newly dug pool in the courtyard, a knee-black shadow rose up. It was the Silver Patterned Turtle. It liked to stay in the water, so Yang Wu made a pool for it to avoid it lying outside and embarrassing itself like a dead turtle.
The Silver Patterned Turtle obediently flew in front of Yang Wu and said respectfully: "Grandson awaits Young Master's orders."
"I'll bring you out for a walk." Yang Wu jumped onto the back of the Silver Patterned Turtle and pulled Wan Lanxin up.
Tang Xiaohan was very excited. She wanted to go up, but she did not dare to. She looked at Yang Wu and said weakly: "Yang Wu, can you bring me along?"
She was used to a luxurious carriage and soft bed. She also wanted to change the feeling of riding a spirit demon.
Yang Wu wanted to reject her, but when he saw her watery eyes, his heart softened. He waved his hand and said: "Come on up."
Tang Xiaohan looked at Yang Wu, touched. She then grabbed Yang Wu's hand and lightly climbed onto the back of the Silver Patterned Turtle. She was so close to Yang Wu that her breathing quickened.
Just like this, one man and two women went to the Royal School together.
