Chapter 476 - 476 How was this possible?

476 How was this possible?

Shi Qingluo stayed in the capital for another day.

She gave Xi Rui’s family and the other families 30 catties of potatoes each and taught them how to grow them.

She also received a warm reception from this handful of few families.

At the same time, they had also prepared many things and asked Shi Qingluo to help bring them to Xi Rui and the others.

A few elderly ladies and madams even pulled Shi Qingluo aside to ask about their precious grandson/son’s situation at the northern border.

When they heard from Shi Qingluo that they were all working hard and had gradually gotten used to the northern border, the old ladies and madams heaved a sigh of relief as they wiped their tears.

They thanked Shi Qingluo profusely and asked her to take care of them.

When Shi Qingluo left, she received many gifts from the old ladies and madams.

She didn’t want it, but they forced it on her.

The elders of this handful of families were very enthusiastic and fond of her.

Hence, when Shi Qingluo left the next day, she added two more carriages of things.

The emperor sent a group of more elite royal guards to escort Shi Qingluo.

When they arrived at Heyang County, these guards would be left at the northern border for Prince Yi.

Prince Jin’s residence in Northern City.

Liang Yujun received a message from Beijing.

He also had a way to send messages quickly.

It would take less than a month.

The fastest method would take eight to nine days.

Liang Yujun looked at the report in his hands, his expression unsightly.

Liang Mingyu, who had just returned to Northern City, saw this and couldn’t help but ask, “Father, did something happen?”

The princess consort had gone to Heyang County.

He was really afraid of her, so he made up an excuse to arrange the road construction at this end and returned to Northern City first.

Liang Yujun crumpled the letter into a ball with his hand. “Shi Qingluo sent the potatoes to the capital alone.

“Now, everyone in the capital knows that there is another high-yield crop. The emperor’s reputation is even better.”

Liang Mingyu was stunned. “How did Shi Qingluo manage to send the potatoes out alone? Father, haven’t your men been searching and intercepting the entire way?”

Liang Yujun shook his head. “That’s what’s so amazing about her. No one knows how she managed to transport so many potatoes back to the capital all by herself.

“They all guessed that it was her old master who helped her.”

Liang Mingyu frowned. “This is too absurd.”

“Then did she receive a reward from the emperor?” he asked.

Otherwise, his father’s face would not be so dark and terrifying.

Liang Yujun took a deep breath. “Shi Qingluo asked the emperor for the title of Princess Fubao and even had the emperor bestow her goose as the goose king. She even asked for a death-exemption medallion for her goose.”

Liang Mingyu was shocked. “Ah, she’s really going to be a princess? ”

“The emperor actually gave her goose a death-free medallion.”

It sounded ridiculous, but what surprised him was that Shi Qingluo actually did what she said.

Liang Yujun couldn’t hold back and flipped all the teapots and cups on the table to the ground.

“Not only that, Shi Qingluo also lodged a complaint against Min’er, and the emperor demoted Min’er to Ordinary County Princess.”

What he was most angry about was still this matter.

He wasn’t particularly angry about his daughter being demoted.

He was angry that the emperor was deliberately using his daughter to slap his face.

The title “Ordinary” really made it difficult for people not to think of it, it was full of sarcasm.

From “Zhen”, meaning precious, to “Ordinary”, did the emperor mean that he could change the previous emperor’s bestowment as he wished?

When Liang Mingyu heard this, he didn’t know why, but he was secretly happy.

Liang Mingmin really deserved this.

In the future, she would become Ordinary County Princess from Princess Zhen. That would be a complete joke in Northern City.

Most importantly, it was caused by the village woman she looked down on the most. It was really a slap in the face.

Especially now that Shi Qingluo had transformed and would be returning as Princess Fubao, her status was definitely higher than Liang Mingmin’s.

The two words “Fubao” showed how much the emperor valued Shi Qingluo as a treasure and a blessing.

However, he didn’t show it on his face.

Instead, he said angrily, “This is too much. Father, the emperor is targeting you.”

Liang Yujun nodded. “That’s right. He also had people spread the news of Shi Qingluo and that big goose discovering that potato is a high-yield crop.

“Also, the news of Min’er targeting the goose king and wanting to stew and slaughter it has spread.

“Now whenever Min’er is mentioned, many people would be cursing her. Even my reputation has been affected.”

This was definitely the emperor’s way of taking revenge on him for intentionally tarnishing someone else’s eputation.

It had to be said that he had really succeeded.

In the eyes of the commoners, how could he, Prince Jin, compare to a high-yield crop?

His daughter wanted to kill the goose king, who had contributed so much to the protection of Daliang.

She was simply too cruel and vicious.

With such a daughter, he, as her father, naturally wouldn’t be any better off.

Therefore, he regretted letting Liang Mingmin follow Liang Mingyu to Heyang County.

He really didn’t expect Shi Qingluo to do this.

When she was provoked, she even brought up the matter of offering potatoes in exchange for the position of the princess and getting her big goose a death-exemption medallion to slap Liang Mingmin in the face.

He didn’t believe that the potato was discovered out of a sudden.

He believed that Shi Qingluo must have discovered it long ago, but she only took it out in exchange for benefits.

He hated her but also admired her at the same time.

He gritted his teeth and said, “What a failure who couldn’t do much but ruin things. Indeed a disgrace.”

Liang Mingmin’s crooked ideas were the result of his deliberate indulgence.

Who would’ve thought that she would be so vicious and even sabotage her father.

There hadn’t been any good news recently.

Prince Yi was not dead, and was saved by Xiao Hanzheng’s mother.

Liang Mingyu naturally knew who his father was scolding, and he especially agreed.

“Father, has Shi Qingluo returned from her journey?” He asked worriedly.

“Should we ask Princess Zhen to come back first?”

Otherwise, he would be embarrassed again.

Although he did hope that Liang Mingmin would be embarrassed, this was related to Prince Jin’s residence, and they would be embarrassed.

“What Princess Zhen? ” Liang Yujun replied coldly.

“She’ll be an Ordinary County Princess when the decree is issued.”

“Go to Heyang County personally and see if you can bring her back, ” he instructed.

Liang Mingyu was speechless, he didn’t want to go at all.

“The princess consort and the county princess will never listen to me,” he said with difficulty.

He had rushed back to avoid both the mother and daughter.

Who would have thought that he would be thrown back?

Liang Yujun knew what his princess consort and daughter were like.

“Then you should go and keep an eye on them, and let them do whatever they want,” he said after thinking for a long time.

Liang Mingyu was taken aback. “So is it okay if they offend Shi Qingluo and her husband? ”

Liang Yujun narrowed his eyes. “It doesn’t matter. When things are settled, I’ll use the two of them as gifts to buy over Shi Qingluo and her husband. I’m sure they’ll be satisfied.”

Liang Mingyu was stunned. “As gifts? ”

What was the meaning of this?

Everyone in Prince Jin’s residence knew how much his father favored the princess consort.

In the entire Northern City, all those from the well-known families knew that in the entire Prince Jin’s residence, the one who really made the decisions in the backyard was the princess consort, not his mother.

His father wanted to give up on the princess consort and her daughter? How was this possible?
