way to move Lan Xinyao, aren't you misjudging me by your petty intentions The first talented woman of Xi Ming, your understanding is truly remarkable. This princess will be embarrassed to speak out of..."Hmph, who would believe..."

"Silence!" Su Cheng's eyes widened, and a flash of anger crossed his face. "What are you all doing You rush to cause trouble for Ying'er and Yi'er the moment they return Do you think I'm dead!"

"Father, Your son is not..."

"Enough! What if Ying'er breaks off the engagement She is still Dongyue's Fifth Princess, my daughter! Even if she doesn't marry in the future, I will support her for life! I don't believe that a princess of Dongyue can't live without getting married! What are you all saying Your words are dripping with poison! If you dare to speak another word out of line, get back to where you came from!" Su Chengming was furious, his temples bulging with veins, frightening everyone into silence.

"Father, you are so good to me." Su Qingying was deeply moved by her father's unconditional love. Her nose tingled, and she choked back tears. "Ying'er was truly blessed but unaware of it before. She even often made Father angry."

Everyone says the imperial family is the most heartless, but her emperor father truly loves her. In her past life, she was an orphan and had never experienced parental love. Only in this life has she truly felt it. Su Qingying feels how lucky she is

A smile replaced the previous fury on Su Chengming's face, and he was so delighted that he wanted to offer her everything. "Hee hee," he said, "My Yinger has grown up and knows how to worry about her father now."

“Father, I haven't had the chance to tell you yet. Ying’er is no longer foolish; she's incredibly sharp! Not only has she shone brightly in Ximeng, but she also won first place at the Flower Appreciation Banquet! She has truly brought glory to Dongyue.” Now his Ying’er was completely different from before. Su Ziyi eagerly wanted to tell everyone how dazzling the once-mocked silly princess had become.

"Oh Is that so" Su Chengming couldn't hide the delight on his face. No wonder he always felt that this girl was different in some way.

Su Qingying pouted her small mouth and said unhappily, "What Father, are you not confident in Ying'er If you don't believe me, father can send someone to Ximing to inquire about it. See how your daughter surpasses all others in beauty."

"Hahaha... Trust, how could I not trust My Ying'er should be this outstanding." He always believed that Ying'er would be as brilliant and beautiful as her mother!

The grand hall echoed with Su Chengming's hearty laughter. Su Qingying often made him laugh uncontrollably, which delighted the Prince's party members so much that they laughed until their eyes watered, praising Su Qingying incessantly.

The Imperial faction was ecstatic, while the Third Prince and others from opposing factions grew worried. It was clear to everyone that the Fifth Princess had become the emperor's favorite, which would be detrimental to their interests!

The more Su Qingying laughed, the gloomier Su Mo Xue and the others became, their faces ashen with rage. They were so angry they could barely speak, but there was nothing they could do. Their father doted on this little shrew, treating her like a princess above reproach. No matter how angry they were, they couldn't do anything to her.

What's even more infuriating is that this fool actually isn't foolish anymore. As soon as he recovered, he started going against them at every turn, with such an arrogant air about him that just made their blood boil.

Just then, Yan Fei spoke again, taking Su Qingying's hand and curving her beautiful eyes, "Ying'er has really grown more and more graceful. At only seventeen, before she's even reached the age of marriage, she's already this stunningly beautiful."

In ancient times, women generally came of age at fifteen, but in the Wind Cloud Continent, it was eighteen, just like in modern times.

"Isn't that right!" In Su Chengming's eyes, Su Qingying was perfect in every way. As if remembering something, Su Chengming's eyes lit up, and he sighed with emotion, "I remember, in two months, it will be Ying'er's coming-of-age ceremony, right By then, Ying'er will truly be an adult."

Su Chengming's words fell on Su Mo Xue and the others' ears, extremely harsh. When had their father ever cared about their coming-of-age ceremony Let alone remembered it, but he happened to remember Su Qingying's, how could they not be jealous

Why We are all the Emperor's children, why is there such a huge difference in treatment Before Su Qingying was foolish, Father already favored her like this. Now that she's not stupid, isn't he even more doting and out of control

Taking Su Qingying's hand in hers, Yan Fei softly said, "But, Ying’er, a woman must eventually find a good husband to marry. How about this palace plays the role of a matchmaker This palace thinks that the eldest son of the Minister of Punishment is quite good. He has a distinguished family background and talent, and his character is also acceptable…"

Su Chengming frowned, his face growing increasingly grim with each word. His whole body seemed shrouded in frost, an intimidating presence.

Hearing this, Su Qingying understood everything. A hint of mockery flashed in her phoenix eyes. It seemed that this concubine wasn't a kind person either, just a more advanced version of the white lotus.

Su Qingying silently retracted her hand and indifferently said, "No need."

If her husband heard this, I wonder what his reaction would be It would definitely be interesting.

Thinking of that vinegar-loving devil, Su Qingying's lips couldn't help but curl up slightly.

The stunning consort was stunned, raising her head just in time to see the smile at the corner of her lips. Although it was faint, the stunning consort still caught it and naturally assumed that Su Qingying was shy. She couldn't help but smile gently: "Ying'er, this palace knows you're shy, don't worry, Young Master Jiang is a very good person, he..."

"Beauty!" Su Chengming couldn't take it anymore.

Su Qingying instantly withdrew her smile, gave Wen Wan a cold look, and said in an unfriendly tone, "Lady Yanfei, we are not familiar with each other, so don't call me so intimately. This princess's marriage doesn't need your concern. Father just said that even if this princess doesn't marry, he will support her for life. Lady Yanfei, do you really not want to see this princess You can't wait to marry me off as soon as you come back"

As soon as these words were uttered, the concubine's face instantly changed color. She panicked and said, "Ying'er, this palace..."

"Lady Yanfei, you can still call me the Fifth Princess. Only my birth mother deserves to call me Ying'er. Who are you Just a concubine of Father Emperor, you have no qualifications to call my given name."

In the original owner's memory, Yan Fei was the most favored and also the most complex woman in the harem. She had no parents, no background, and was brought back by Su Chengming during a micro-service private visit.

Now this imperial concubine actually dares to make a move on her, isn't she tired of living and looking for death!

"Hiss!" Everyone was so shocked that their eyes almost popped out of their sockets. Some even reached up to their ears and dug around, as if they'd misheard because there was too much earwax.

This fool has made a blunder again To dare call Empress Yanfei a concubine! If this is the case, wouldn't all the concubines in the harem be considered concubines as well

Su Chengming was about to speak, but seeing Su Ziyì silently shake his head at him, Su Chengming hesitated and swallowed the words in his throat. His gaze sank deeply towards Yan Fei and the others.

"The Fifth Princess has such a big mouth! How dare she say that we are also the Emperor's concubines This action of the Fifth Princess is inappropriate, isn't it" Concubine Rong was furious. She dared to call her a concubine, this Su Qingying was too arrogant!

The beauty anxiously gazed at Su Chengming, waiting for half a day but seeing no response from him. Her eyes turned red instantly, and she was about to cry. "Ying, Fifth Princess, it's this palace who is not good…" Xuanyuan Luocheng picked up his chopsticks and ate a few bites. At this time, Xiaofuzi, very obsequiously, stepped forward and pointed at the宮保雞丁 (Gongbao chicken) that Su Qingying had switched, an...
