Chapter 868 Choosing the Prince Consort
“Yun Che, do I look good like this?” she asked.
"Of course it looks good."
Xiao Zhan smiled: "Xiaoxue is naturally beautiful, she looks beautiful in anything she wears."
Jiang Xiaoan listened from the side, surprised by her cousin's rare gentle words.
He realized that everyone will meet that special person who changes who they are.
Looking at the sweet interaction between the couple, he thought to himself that he would find his other half after returning to Beijing.
At this time, Fu Dong shouted: "Master Jiang, get on the horse!"
Jiang Xiaoan came back to his senses and secretly decided that he would never look for a partner as strong as Fu Dong in the future.
After three days' journey, they arrived at the capital of southern Xinjiang and found the city unusually lively, apparently some grand event was taking place.
Jiang Xue said to He Kang, "When you and your brother came to pick us up, you didn't mention any major events in the city recently."
He Kang immediately went to inquire about the news and soon came back to report: "Master, it turns out that Princess Ateli suddenly announced that she would select a prince consort in the city, which attracted many people to gather."
Ateli was the only daughter of the previous king and was very much loved.
Her brother Atel also loved her very much after he succeeded to the throne.
"Select a prince consort? How to select?" Jiang Xue asked curiously.
"The princess would ride around on an elephant chariot, and if she took a fancy to someone, she would point her bow and arrow at that person."
"She can choose her consort with just one look. It seems that this princess values appearance."
Jiang Xue turned to look at Xiao Zhan: "Yun Che, we have to find a place to hide you."
Jiang Xiaoan whispered helplessly, "Can you hide me too when you hide my cousin?"
Although southern Xinjiang is picturesque and full of rare medicinal herbs, marrying a woman from southern Xinjiang was not in his plan.
Before he finished speaking, a clear bell sound came from afar, like the sound of a silver bell ringing.
The crowd suddenly quieted down and made way to the sides of the road with a respectful attitude.
Jiang Xue looked in the direction of the voice and saw a gorgeous elephant carriage slowly approaching with a woman in red standing on the carriage.
Although she has a slender figure, she has bright eyes and a high nose bridge, which makes her look heroic and unique.
This is Princess Ateli, the favorite of King Ateli.
As they were well prepared, Jiang Xiaoan and Xiao Zhan deliberately lowered their heads, but Ateli's elephant cart suddenly stopped.
"Why are you two bowing your heads? Do you despise this princess?" There was a hint of dissatisfaction in her voice.
Xiao Zhan raised his eyes and replied, "Your Highness is extremely noble, how dare I despise you? It's just that I already have a wife and children at home, so I dare not look directly at you, so as not to delay the princess's selection of a prince consort."
Ateli originally thought that her brother Mingzheng was the most handsome man in the world, but she didn't expect that the man in front of her was even more outstanding, especially his deep eyes that were unforgettable.
Her tone softened.
"Even if you already have a wife, so what? Today I have set my sights on you. Don't worry, I will give your wife enough wealth and will not let her suffer any injustice. By the way, what's your name?"
"Xiao Zhan." Xiao Zhan answered simply.
At this time, Jiang Xue quietly stepped on Jiang Xiaoan, causing him to move involuntarily, attracting Ateli's attention.
She found that this man was more outstanding than Xiao Zhan, and she was very happy.
"What's your name?" Ateli asked curiously.
"I...I am Jiang Wuxin."
Jiang Xiaoan said this with a stiff upper lip, realizing that Jiang Xue was trying to divert his attention, and smiled bitterly inwardly.
"Jiang Wuxin, what a nice name. You are so handsome, why don't you be my consort?" Ateli suggested with a smile.
"But I already have a wife, Princess, please choose someone else." Jiang Xiaoan tried to refuse politely.
Ateli frowned: “Why are all good-looking men married?
But it doesn't matter, I will also give your wives generous rewards. Both of you will be the prince consorts chosen by this princess, now come back with me."
When Jiang Xue heard what Princess Ateli said, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
Although she had heard that the customs in southern Xinjiang were unique, she did not expect that Princess Ateli would choose two princes-in-law at the same time.
Seeing that Xiao Zhan and Jiang Xiaoan did not move, Ateli's face darkened slightly, and she swung the long whip in the air with a sharp sound: "Do you want me to send someone to take you back by force?"
Jiang Xue hurriedly pulled the corner of Xiao Zhan's clothes and said, "Brother, it is such an honor to be the princess's consort. Just go with peace of mind. I will explain everything to my sister-in-law."
"You want to explain?"
Xiao Zhan said with doubt in his tone: "As your brother, I am really flattered by your kindness."
"I'm really thinking about my big brother."
Jiang Xue said with gritted teeth: "Since the princess has chosen you, she will definitely treat you well."
Xiao Zhan nodded gently: "Then I'll have to trouble you, sister."
He knew that Jiang Xue would not easily push him to others. Although he was dissatisfied, he also knew that she must have a plan. After the incident, he would definitely settle the score with her.
Ateli smiled and said, "Your sister is very sensible. In this case, why don't you come back with me and let me treat you well?"
Jiang Xue readily agreed, thinking that if she could please Ateli, she might be able to find out more about Ateli.
As they entered the princess's mansion, they were surrounded by the fragrance of flowers and brilliant colors in the garden. It seemed like a fairyland where it was spring all year round.
Jiang Xue exclaimed: "Your Highness, your mansion is like a paradise on earth. I am so happy to see it today."
Jiang Xiaoan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. With Jiang Xue's status, what kind of rare treasures must she have seen?
Her behavior puzzled him a little, but Xiao Zhan seemed calm, obviously used to her style.
Ateli smiled brightly after hearing this: "This little scene is nothing. The palace is much more magnificent than this. As long as you can satisfy me, it is not impossible for me to take you to visit the palace."
"Thank you, Princess." Jiang Xue responded respectfully.
Afterwards, Ateli hosted a banquet for them. Xiao Zhan and Jiang Xiaoan kept pouring wine for Ateli, hoping that she would get drunk soon.
Unfortunately, Ateli had an amazing alcohol tolerance and she was still very sober even after drinking two bottles of wine.
Jiang Xiaoan considered using drugs, but was worried that there might be detoxification experts in the mansion, so he finally gave up the idea.
At this time, Jiang Xue stood up and raised her glass: "Your Highness, this glass of wine is for you."
Ateli picked up the glass, but was not in a hurry to drink: "There must be a reason for toasting."
"I offer this glass of wine to Your Highness, because you have lived the life I aspire to live."
"Why do you say that?" the princess asked curiously.
"Most women depend on men for their living, but you, Princess, live freely. As long as you are happy, it doesn't matter if you choose two princes-in-law.
Why can men have multiple wives, but we women can’t? The princess broke this unfair concept, which is admirable. "
"That's right. Who says women can't be like men? If this is a rule set by heaven, then I will break it."
