Would anyone disguise as a man and pretend to be a prince like her?
Of course it was impossible.
" But..." Song Yu was still confused. Was that figure really not a man?
She wanted to continue investigating, but Yin Xing did not want to bother with her anymore. Instead, he kindly reminded her,"Your Highness, it's getting late." Tomorrow, you still have to bring the Fourth Imperial Consort into the palace to meet the Emperor.”
On the second day of a wedding, an ordinary family would have to pay respects to their ancestors and meet their parents-in-law.
As members of the royal family, they naturally couldn't avoid these courtesies.
Hearing this, she thought of the troublemakers in the palace. Song Yu immediately became obedient and quickly climbed onto the bed. She covered herself with the blanket and said," Yinxing, I'm going to bed!”
"Yes, Your Highness, this servant will take her leave." Seeing this, Yin Xing smiled in satisfaction and closed the door.
The next day, Song Yu got up at dawn, not for anything else but to prepare for entering the palace. After she finished washing up, she wanted to remind the Northern Qi Princess.
It was time to enter the palace with her to pay her respects today. Unexpectedly, just as she pushed open the door, she saw a beautiful figure appear.
The owner of this figure was not the Northern Qi Princess, but the servant girl beside her. It had to be said that he did not see it clearly yesterday. No matter how he looked at it today, Song Yu realized.
In terms of a girl's bashfulness, this servant girl looked much better than her.
She couldn't help but take a few more glances at the other party. Unexpectedly, she heard a delicate sigh."Fourth Prince, could it be that you have taken a fancy to this princess 'servant girl?”
She fancied her? How could that be? Song Yu replied immediately," Don't worry, I will never fall in love with any woman.”
It was a very casual sentence, but it did not make sense.
As expected, the Northern Qi Princess suddenly raised her head. He stared at her and said,"Any woman? Could it be that Fourth Prince, you…"
Only then did Song Yu realize that he had said the wrong thing and hurriedly tried to remedy it.
But for some reason, when he looked up and met her eyes. The lie she wanted to say was instantly unable to come out.
"Fourth Imperial Concubine, what His Highness is saying is that he will not like any other woman besides you.”Gingko, who had arrived in time, quickly made things right.
The Northern Qi Princess also retracted her gaze and smiled. He did not probe further.
After being saved, Song Yu heaved a sigh of relief. He calmed his mind and said,"Princess of Northern Qi, since you have already washed up. Then follow me into the palace.”
"Yes, I will follow your orders, Fourth Prince." the Northern Qi Princess replied gently.
However, Song Yu felt guilty and didn't dare to look back at her. He got on the carriage that was entering the palace. " Your Highness, what happened to you just now?" Yin Xing asked softly when there was no one around.”
It wasn't just a day or two that she had disguised herself as a man, usually facing the concubines in the palace. She could handle it with ease, so how could she almost fall into the hands of a foreign princess today?
It really shouldn't be.
"Yinxing, I think she's weird. Her eyes are a little scary.”As she watched, she actually didn't even know how to lie. Wasn't this strange and scary?
"Your Highness, I've already asked around." People of Northern Qi were good at martial arts, regardless of gender, and they were strong from a young age. It was even more so for the Northern Qi Princess. They are indeed much sturdier than us Southern Mountain women. It was indeed lacking in beauty, but after all, this was a marriage bestowed by the royal family. Your Highness, just bear with it for now."
She knew, she knew everything. It was normal for Her Highness to dislike such a big and burly princess.
However, no matter how much she disliked him, she shouldn't slander him like this.
Yesterday, he suspected that she was pretending to be a princess, and today, he said that she looked ugly. But she thought that this Northern Qi Princess was quite good. At least her voice was very pleasant to the ear.
"No, that's not what I meant.”Seeing that she did not understand, Song Yu was very anxious about his deep meaning.
However, just as she was about to explain, she heard a voice coming from outside." Fourth Prince, please alight from the carriage when you arrive at the palace.”
At the same time, the Northern Qi Princess, who was following closely behind her, was also helped out of the carriage. Seeing this, she could only wave her hand helplessly and stop the topic.
After entering the palace, they went straight to Fengyang Palace to pay their respects to the Empress. They had planned to go to Daxing Hall after that. Unexpectedly, the Emperor of Nanyue and the Empress were both in Fengyang Palace.
It saved Song Yu the trouble of making another trip.
After a round of greetings, the two of them were given a seat. Northern Qi Princess Xiao Fengtian followed closely behind.
"Yu 'er, you're an adult now that you're married. You must treat the Northern Qi Princess well.”The Empress smiled and said in a graceful manner.
Song Yu cupped his hands and nodded in agreement." Consort Mother, don't worry. Your son will treat the princess well."”
Seeing this, the Emperor of Nanyue looked up at the Northern Qi Princess.
He was originally prepared to praise her, but he guessed that she was acting like this. For a moment, he did not know where to start. He could only smile awkwardly." I have long heard that Northern Qi is good at martial arts. Everyone is strong and healthy." Now that I've seen the princess, I'm deeply gratified.
Hearing this, Song Yu almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
See, it wasn't her who disliked it but him. Even his father, who was used to appreciating all kinds of flowers, did not like such thick flowers.
Unfortunately, before her smile could fully bloom, she was glared at by the Empress on the stage.
Then, he saw the Northern Qi Princess covering her face with a smile.""Thank you for your praise, Imperial Father.”
The Emperor of South Peak exchanged a few more pleasantries before leaving due to the busy state affairs. As for Song Yu, she was left behind by the Empress for a private conversation. The Northern Qi Princess Xiao Fengtian was sent back to the Fourth Prince's manor by Yin Xing and the others.
"Yu 'er, last night…did anyone see through you?”After everyone left, the Empress asked worriedly.
Song Yu had a smug look on his face." Consort Mother, don't worry. I didn't. Last night, I made up an excuse and didn't sleep with that princess. So there are no flaws, but mother, you have also seen the Northern Qi Princess…"
He looked a little too much.
The Empress naturally understood her daughter's intentions, but what could she do?
He sighed helplessly and said,"Alright, Yu 'er, Consort Mother wants you to marry the Northern Qi Princess not because of her looks. But with her, you will undoubtedly have Northern Qi's support. At that time, your Imperial Father will also appoint someone as the Crown Prince. Don't you know who he is?”
What? She could even be conferred the title of Crown Prince?
Hearing this, Song Yu immediately could not sit still and stood up." Consort Mother, this, this is probably inappropriate." Yu 'er was a woman. Being a prince who fooled people was already a heinous crime. The Crown Prince…"
