Rebirth of The Deer and the Cauldron, Wei Xiaobao Becomes a God

Chapter 473: Longevity Chapter Presented to the Emperor (1)

Over the past few years, the relationship between me and my mother has been extremely tense and rigid.

The fuse of all this was her resolute decision to elope with Wei Xiaobao.

From then on, the Queen Mother became dissatisfied with her, and an irreparable rift appeared in the relationship between mother and daughter.

But the Wei Xiaobao today is no longer the same as he was before. He even dares to openly challenge his brother the emperor!

What is even more amazing is that not only were both daughters given royal surnames, they were also promoted to the rank of eldest princess!

You should know that the so-called eldest princess does not only refer to the emperor's eldest daughter, but specifically refers to the eldest daughter born by the empress who can receive this honor.

From this we can see that the emperor's love for Shuangshuang has reached an unprecedented level.

As the saying goes, "A wife is honored by her husband, and a mother is honored by her son." Seeing that her husband and daughter are so promising, Princess Jianning couldn't help but feel deeply moved:

All the grievances and hardships I have endured over the years have finally paid off. I have finally ushered in the day when I can be proud of myself after all the hard work!

At this moment, Princess Jianning, riding on horseback, felt more and more cheerful, and her thoughts ran wild like a wild horse.

I just wonder if Wei Xiaobao, who was on Dongzhou Island and surrounded by many women, ever occasionally thought of myself far away in the capital?

After entering the capital, the scene in front of us suddenly became lively.

The wide road was bustling with traffic, and one could see many beautifully decorated carriages, orderly rows of horse teams, and exquisite sedan chairs.

It turned out that these were teams composed of officials of all levels who came to attend the grand court ceremony.

According to the strict regulations of the court, the number and size of these teams must be determined according to the level of officials and must not be arbitrarily determined.

Among them, the first and second rank officials were highly respected, and their entourage numbered up to 16 people, and they were able to ride in eight spacious and comfortable sedan chairs, showing their majesty and style;

Officials of the fourth and fifth ranks could ride in a relatively small sedan chair with four bearers, accompanied by four attendants.

As for officials below the fifth rank, they could either ride in a sedan chair carried by two men, or travel by horse-drawn carriage or simply ride on horseback.

It is worth mentioning that the princess enjoyed extremely high treatment when she went on tour. She could travel in a sedan chair carried by eight people like a prince, and she was accompanied by as many as thirty-two people.

At this moment, Princesses Jianning and Shuangshuang were riding on tall horses, and there were as many as 78 cavalrymen behind them! Such a huge formation was really eye-catching.

Although there were clear regulations that horses were not allowed to gallop after entering the city and could only move slowly, this cavalry team led by the princess still became the most dazzling among the many officials' teams with its unique momentum.

However, just as they were about to reach the Meridian Gate, an accident occurred - a group of people suddenly appeared in front of them and blocked their way.

I saw that this group of people were holding high the ceremonial flag of the Imperial Emissary Platform, and they were also riding in a sedan chair carried by eight people, but they were walking leisurely and slowly in front.

Seeing this, Zhang Fugui hurriedly drove his horse forward and shouted loudly: "Teams ahead, move aside, teams ahead, move aside..."

Princess Jianning led a cavalry squad on this trip. They were lightly equipped, without the ceremonial guards that symbolized the princess's noble status, and without the flags that represented the royal majesty. This made the team look no different from an ordinary army.

The team in front was moving forward slowly when they suddenly discovered a group of cavalrymen in strange attire appearing from behind.

Since there was no obvious sign indicating his special identity, the team in front mistakenly thought that he was just an ordinary soldier on patrol duty and therefore completely ignored him.

After all, the person sitting in that gorgeous sedan at this moment was an important official of the court - the Minister of Censorship Li Guangdi.

As one of the cabinet ministers, he is in a high position and has great power. How could he easily give way to just a few soldiers behind him?

Seeing that the other party had no intention of giving way, Li Guangdi's entourage leader could not help but get angry. He quickly walked to the back of the team and shouted, "You bold lunatics! Do you know whose team is in front of you? You are so rude, why don't you take a detour!"

However, he never expected that these words not only failed to have a deterrent effect, but instead angered Princess Jianning who was riding towards him.

Princess Jianning has always been arrogant and domineering. On weekdays, she is wary of her mother and brother, and never takes anyone else seriously.

Now, she was furious when she heard that the leader dared to speak to her in such a disrespectful tone. Her beautiful eyes widened, her eyebrows raised, and she thought to herself:

Humph! It's fine that you're being bullied by my mother and my brother, the emperor, but you, a mere follower, actually dare to act so arrogantly in front of this princess!

Let me teach you a lesson with my whip today and see if you can bear this kind of insult!

After thinking about it, Princess Jianning raised the long whip inlaid with gold and jade in her hand without saying a word, and lashed at the leader fiercely...

"What a blind slave you are! I will teach you a lesson today!"

Princess Jianning's eyes were wide open, she cursed, and the whip in her hand hit the servants fiercely like raindrops.

Each whip was accompanied by a sharp sound of wind, which made the people around terrified.

While waving the whip to lash out at the servants, she turned around and shouted to Zhang Fugui beside her:

"Zhang Fugui, what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and tie up all these slaves! Also, tear that broken sedan chair in front of me to pieces! How dare any cat or dog show off in front of me, the Minister of Agriculture!"

However, before Zhang Fugui could open his mouth to give an order, a delicate shout was heard, and everyone looked closely and saw that Shuangshuang had leaped up like an nimble flying swallow.

Her small figure drew a graceful arc in the air, and then she waved her little hand gently. In an instant, the top of the sedan chair carried by eight people seemed to be lifted up by an invisible force and flew straight to a hundred feet away.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Fugui couldn't help but gasp, but he reacted quickly and shouted, "Come here, tie up all these guys!"

At this moment, Jianning saw Shuangshuang being so brave and was afraid that someone might get killed, so he hurriedly shouted at Shuangshuang: "Shuangshuang, hit her gently, don't kill anyone!"

At this moment, Li Guangdi, who was dozing off comfortably in one of the eight sedan chairs, suddenly felt a chill.

In a daze, he discovered that the roof of the sedan had disappeared, and then a gust of biting cold air rushed in.
