Chapter 137 The only title
Emperor Xuanping adopted his adopted daughter Lu Chaochao and gave her the title Zhaoyang.
As soon as these words came out, all the officials were in an uproar.
Zhaoyang? Beizhao's sun?
Zhao Youtong was in the same dynasty, which shows that the emperor really put his thoughts into it.
Zhaoyang, the sun of Beizhao, the center of Beizhao, will your Majesty go too far? ?
The faces of the veterans changed slightly when they heard the title Zhaoyang.
Your Majesty wants to recognize his adopted daughter and make her a princess, but she is just a little princess, so the ministers will not object.
The title Zhaoyang can be given, which already puts him above the princes and daughters.
Now, none of His Majesty's heirs have titles.
The eyes of all the concubines were red, and Concubine Xiao gritted her teeth. She glanced at her father, Uncle Xiao.
Uncle Xiao Guo was there and ignored her at all.
Concubine Xiao gritted her teeth with hatred. Ever since Lu Chaochao went to the Xiao family, her mother, younger brother, and nephew had died suddenly.
Before her death, her mother only sent a message that Lu Chaochao must die.
She already resented Lu Chaochao!
What's more, her daughter Xie Yining is His Majesty's only princess.
She has never been banned.
Why is Lu Chaochao worthy?
"Your Majesty, she is just a registered princess, so there is no need for a title, right? Your Majesty likes her, and it is already a great blessing to have her as your daughter." Concubine Xiao pursed her lips.
"No real heir to the emperor has a title. If it is given to an adopted daughter, wouldn't it make people look down on the royal family?"
Concubine Xiao frowned slightly, hiding the malice in her eyes.
Your Majesty, are you blind?
Yining is your only daughter!
You leave your own daughter alone and instead dote on an outsider?
Is she worthy of all the honors she has been given?
Concubine Xiao was the most beautiful woman in the capital. She almost shed tears when she saw the emperor's grievance. Usually the emperor liked her the most.
The emperor's heart tightened and he secretly glanced at Lu Chaochao's expression.
Seeing her eyes drooling while looking at the tribute, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Who do I grant a title to? Why do you need to point your finger at it?"
"I'm too spoiled to you." The emperor glanced at her condescendingly.
"Princes and princesses are looked down upon by others without titles? How incompetent are they? If you are capable, how can you be afraid of being looked down upon by others?" The emperor's words brought out a hint of contempt.
"But Lu Chaochao... why does he need it?" Concubine Xiao still refused to give up and gave Lu Chaochao the title. She was unwilling to give up!
"Oh, I'm worried that she will be looked down upon."
Concubine Xiao's heart was choked, the emperor's preference was undisguised.
"Should you seal it or not?" Lu Chaochao whispered and tugged on his dragon robe.
"If you don't seal it, will Wo go home?"
[The prince’s brother said that there will be a banquet after the sealing ceremony. 】
【Should we open the seats yet? How many dishes? Can I eat more? I have twelve teeth...]
Lu Chaochao felt anxious and angry.
[My mother always said that babies cannot digest food if they eat too much. They should not eat too much greasy food, but should eat more milk and vegetables. 】
[But I really don’t want to eat vegetables. 】
[If I want to eat vegetables, why don’t I be reincarnated as a cow? 】
"Pfft..." The prince pursed his lips tightly, holding back tears.
Lu Chaochao's inner voice always came unexpectedly.
The queen glanced at him, and the prince coughed lightly and returned to his usual indifference.
"Feng Feng Feng." The emperor waved his hand, fearing that she would run away.
Concubine Xiao stayed where she was, and the little princess beside her stared at Lu Chaochao.
It's all her fault, it's all her fault.
Lu Chaochao didn't think about it at all.
She was only thinking about, when will the banquet start? How many dishes are there today?
After the whole process, Lu Chaochao felt hungry, his chest pressed against his back, and he even stared at the tributes and drooled.
"Wipe the saliva and let's start the dinner immediately." The prince secretly wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth.
The moment when Lu Chaochao's name was recorded in the royal family tree and the jade certificate was placed.
Sudden...
Countless magpies flew in from all directions.
Holding delicate flowers in her mouth, they circled and danced over the palace.
"Look, what is in the sky?" The palace people looked up.
Countless flowers sprinkled from the sky.
The emperor was startled and looked down at Lu Chaochao.
She was standing on tiptoe, reaching out to touch the roasted chicken on the altar table, secretly grabbing the chicken butt and throwing it into her mouth.
The cheeks are bulging high, like a little hamster.
"It's auspicious, it's auspicious!"
"Auspiciousness comes from heaven, auspiciousness comes from heaven! If Beizhao gets this blessing, he will be protected by God, and Princess Zhaoyang will live a thousand years, a thousand years." Mr. Fang of the Ministry of Rites stood up and shouted a thousand years to Lu Chaochao.
"It is Beizhao's good fortune to have good fortune come to Beizhao."
"Your Majesty, Beizhao is blessed."
Seeing this scene, all the civil and military officials knelt down to worship Princess Zhaoyang.
The emperor looked proud, picked up Lu Chaochao and looked at the ancestral tablet.
Father, my son recognizes her as Princess Beizhao.
The emperor's eyebrows showed joy.
banquet.
All civil and military officials in the court were discussing His Majesty's newly recognized Princess Zhaoyang, but Lu Yuanze and Master Jiang were excluded.
The two of them were kicked out of the group chat.
Lu Chaochao, on the other hand, was busy hugging the mat.
Xuan Jichuan, the proton from Dongling Kingdom, was sitting low-key in the corner. Dongling had recently offended Beizhao, and he was having a hard time.
Palace people are the best at flattering others.
He was originally a hostage, but Dong Ling offended Beizhao and the emperor rejected him, which made his life extremely difficult.
Princess Xuanyin has already proposed to marry the eldest prince.
Just wait until the next year to get married.
Xuanyin looked at her brother Xuan Jichuan worriedly. They were not favored in Dongling, otherwise they would not have been sent to marry him or be used as protons.
Now that the two countries are at war, Proton is a little embarrassed.
She saw that Xuan Jichuan's clothes were wet and his face was horribly pale.
I was so distressed that I burst into tears.
[Why is sister Xuanyin crying? 】
[Feel sorry for my brother? 】
[In the original book, Xuan Jichuan was humiliated in Beizhao. After returning home, he came to power and became King of Dongling. Dong Ling became extremely powerful in his hands. 】
Later, it caused a lot of chaos for Lu Jingyao.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Lu Chaochao stood up unsteadily and walked toward Xuanjichuan on his short legs.
Xuan Jichuan was twelve years old this year. The emperor showed his benevolence and righteousness and sent him to the Imperial Academy together.
But the Imperial Academy is full of sons of courtiers, and they are at their peak when they are young.
They humiliated him and forced him to kneel on the ground and learn how to bark and crawl like a dog.
When he refused, his ribs were broken.
At this moment, he was sitting cross-legged on the banquet, and when he breathed, it felt like a thousand arrows had pierced his heart, and he was so painful that he couldn't straighten his back.
The boy's hand holding Yinqi trembled slightly.
Under the robe, there were countless injuries.
His eyes were red, like a forbearing wolf cub.
"Brother, is the mud bleeding?" Lu Chaochao asked softly.
I was angry that he was trampling on me like a bear cub, but afterwards he gave me delicious pea yellow.
Lu Chaochao had already forgiven him.
Xuan Jichuan pursed his lips and said nothing, then gently wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
"Brother, who bullied Ni?"
"Chaochao, vent your anger on Ni!" Lu Chaochao put his hands on his hips and looked fierce.
"Wo wants to tell the emperor's father!" She wanted to pull Xuan Jichuan to stand up, but Xuan Jichuan's ribs were broken, and every move caused excruciating pain.
Sweat dripped from his forehead.
The little guy held his hand, and the warmth dispelled the coldness.
Xuan Jichuan shook his head, how could the emperor make the decision for him?
What's more, Dong Ling offended Bei Zhao, and the relationship was already tense.
He is afraid that his life will be lost in Beizhao. (End of chapter)
