Chapter 1533 Zhang Xu Kingdom’s Fall
"Princess Yue!"
The people were stunned. They didn't expect that this woman would be so daring that she would step forward and jumped down on herself. Her half older brother was here and she could definitely ask for help.
But she didn't.
She only looked in his direction and praised him in her mouth but never asked for anything.
Perhaps, it was because she knew that it was useless.
Or it was because she didn't want to burden her half older brother with a person like her, a married princess.
Once a person was married, they would be part of the other's family.
So even if Princess Yue was the princess of Fei Yang Kingdom, her status was a bit delicate and there were many people who didn't like her when she was married to Zhang Xu Kingdom. And the people from Zhang Xu Kingdom clearly couldn't trust a woman from this origin.
Thus, this caused conflict.
"Wha..." Empress Lang was stunned when she saw Princess Yue's decision. She could not understand why this woman seek death.
Among the women in the Imperial Palace, Princess Yue was technically the only one who had the possibility to survive. But now that she chose death on her own, what should they do.
Swish! Thump!
The expected pain didn't come.
Princess Yue opened her eyes and saw the delicate and beautiful face in front of her, dumbfounded. Falling from the second floor, as a delicate and weak woman, Princess Yue should have been heavily injured and might even lose her life.
But Princess Yue didn't care.
She just didn't want to be used by others, especially used against her great half older brother.
But she didn't die.
The moment she stepped forward, Nan Hua also dashed forward and caught Princess Yue. The two women were of similar stature with Princess Yue only a bit taller, so Nan Hua had no difficulties at all to catch such a small and slender woman.
This kind of address was strange for siblings. But Princess Yue was already married away and the relationship with Zhang Xu Kingdom had already been completely destroyed.
Who would care for a woman like her?
Knowing this, Princess Yue didn't know what Emperor Yang Zhou had in plan for her, the troublesome half sister of his.
"When the matter is settled, you can stay here." Emperor Yang Zhou looked at this half Imperial sister and nodded lightly. He had no affection to her nor any other emotion, but it was also the truth that the two shared the same bloodline.
He couldn't act too indifferent to her in front of outsiders.
Perhaps, having been interacting with some women, he began to consider some matters in their point of view.
Princess Yue's eyes flashed in surprise. She didn't expect that her older brother would allow her to live in the palace.
Would he restore her status as the princess?
This was a pleasant surprise.
She curtsied. "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty."
Emperor Yang Zhou nodded and glanced at Long Qian Xing. "I'm handing this to you."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Long Qian Xing cupped his fist and then ordered the soldiers to settle the other servants and caught these women. Anyway, he had the list of the people who lived in the Imperial Palace.
If there was anyone missing, he would just deploy the soldiers to catch them.
Unless they were great expert, they would definitely be captured in the future.
Princess Yue watched the other princess and concubines were treated roughly and sighed slightly. Women's status was extremely low. Those who were of high ranked could only live in the boudoir all their lives and had very few contact with the outside world.
Those who were of lower status had more freedom but less respect and harder livelihood.
It was hard to say which one was better.
"Your Highness, live will be better in the future," Nan Hua looked at this princess and added from the side.
Princess Yue looked at Nan Hua and showed a genuine smile, a free smile from the bottom of her heart. "Yes."
