Xiyue Rebirth: The Palace Reads My Heart and Treats the Madness of Yi Syndrome

Hongli had already made up his mind, but he was feeling extremely irritable and his head was aching, as if countless villains were fighting in his mind.

Why hasn’t Qingying come yet?

No, what does her coming or not have to do with his choosing his first wife?

And why was Gao so bold and presumptuous to say such arrogant words? Not to mention that there was something weird about her whole person, the fact that her words just now could go beyond the ears of all the ladies, eunuchs and palace maids present and directly reach his ears was the most puzzling thing.

Hongli desperately shook off the messy thoughts in his mind, walked steadily and clearly, took the Ruyi from the eunuch, walked straight to Langya and said, "Fucha is upright and prudent, and is a good choice for the legitimate wife. I grant you a Ruyi."

After saying that, he decisively stuffed Ruyi into Fucha Langya's hands.

[That's great. Sister Fucha is the future queen. I love her so much.]

Fu Cha Langya was horrified, but she did not show it on her face and still maintained the shy look of a little girl.

"Thank you, Fourth Prince."

However, Hongli was stunned.

Fucha is the future empress, so doesn’t this mean that he will surely ascend to the throne?

It seems that this Gao family is quite interesting.

So Hongli walked slowly to Gao Xiyue, was silent for a while, and then said, "Princess Xiyue, your name really suits you. The east is not bright yet, and the moonlight is like wind and frost."

Gao Xiyue was immediately excited when she heard this.

[It’s coming, it’s coming, it’s coming with a familiar plot, please praise me for being pretty, then reward me with a hundred taels of gold, and send me back home quickly! I don’t want to stay in this cannibalistic palace for even a minute! ]

Langya, "..." Sister Gao is so straightforward and cute! She is bold and daring!

Hongli was secretly happy: You want to reward me with a hundred taels of gold? That’s wishful thinking!

"With such beauty, you should be chosen as a concubine. I will give you a purse!"

Gao Xiyue was dumbfounded.

[Eh? What's the use of a purse? I want a hundred ounces of gold! ]

Hongli had been annoyed by Gao Xiyue's audacity before, but now he gradually developed a strong interest in her, especially her words "future empress", which successfully pleased him.

Such a wonderful person, he naturally had to tie her up in front of him.

"Princess Xiyue, you must be so happy that you're silly. You're really cute. Princess Xiyue, why don't you take the purse quickly?"

At this moment, Hongli felt even more happy physically and mentally, as if some long-standing restraints were about to fly away.

He really wanted to choose Fucha Langya and Gao Xiyue.

[Ahhh… The host is about to trigger the plot, quickly take the purse, don’t even think about the hundred taels of gold, it doesn’t belong to you at all! ]

Reminded by the sharp beep of the system, Gao Xiyue could only take the purse with a wry smile on her face.

"Ahahahaha... interesting... really interesting... mother, it seems that my son has found a wonderful person."

Hongli looked so delighted that Concubine Xi was also happy. "This Xiyue looks like a good girl. Hongli, you are so lucky!"

Just when Jiang Xuexuan was in a friendly mood, there was a sudden shout from a distance, "Princess, princess, please slow down, wait for me, wait for me, princess."

[There was a loud bang in the sky, and Lao Ru made a brilliant appearance! ]

[You've already missed the auspicious time, and you still dare to make your master wait. You are such an ignorant servant. Do you really think that the Forbidden City belongs to your family? ]

[What do you mean, Brother Hongli and I are like brothers? Ah Ruo can't catch up with you in your flower-pot shoes even when she's wearing flat shoes, and you keep clucking like a hen. You told me you wouldn't come, and now you're late, aren't you? It's really embarrassing! ]

[Is it true that servants who make such a commotion in the palace will not be beaten to death? ]

Gao Xiyue's eyes were rolling up to the sky, which attracted Fu Cha Langya's frequent attention. She was just about to see who was so rude, but she saw a Manchu woman walking towards her with great momentum.

The man was wearing a green satin vest with a dark-patterned autumn-colored cheongsam and a large light purple bow-tied scarf around his neck. His attire looked quite different among the group of Manchu women, like an old maid.

[It's so annoying! Where did this old concubine come from? ]

Just as Gao Xiyue finished speaking, she saw Hongli and Langya staring at her in shock with their eyes wide open.

Gao Xiyue immediately felt two inquiring gazes directed at her and she raised her head suddenly. However, Hongli and Langya seemed to have a tacit understanding that they had known each other for many years and they looked away, as if they were completely unaware.

When Gao Xiyue didn't notice anyone looking at her, she wanted to stare with her eyes wide open, but at the same time she had to straighten her posture and continue eating the melon. This really exhausted her.

[Strange, maybe I was wrong just now? Why did I feel like someone was looking at me just now? Eh! I must have thought too much, others don’t know what I’m thinking, let alone being able to hear my inner voice. But it’s really eye-catching, I have to look at Sister Fucha more to cleanse my eyes. ]

Langya tried hard to control her facial expression so as not to lose her composure on the spot, but she accidentally caught Hongli's playful expression.

Their eyes met, and miraculously they both knew what the other was thinking.

Could it be that they could all hear Gao Xiyue’s thoughts?

Qingying deliberately arrived late and made a high-profile appearance at the right time just to attract everyone's attention.

She had deliberately told Hongli that she did not want to come to the selection, nor did she want to be Hongli's wife. She also said that even if she came, it was just to help her brother. In fact, she just wanted to tease Hongli's heartstrings. After all, she relied on her aunt the Empress. Based on her status, no one among the concubines present could surpass her.

Qingying acted as if she was determined to win and walked in front of Hongli deliberately, but she noticed that Hongli's eyes fell on Fucha Langya and Gao Xiyue one after another.

In an instant, a feeling of loss rushed into Qingying's heart.

Could it be that what Hongli said before was really just a joke to her?

Is it true that she is not in his heart?

But Qingying did not stop. She saw that Hongli's mind was still not on her, so she quickly put away her lonely thoughts, walked up to Concubine Xi and saluted, "Qingying pays respects to Concubine Xi. Qingying is late, please forgive me."

[If you are late, then don't come. You hesitated for so long before and didn't come. Didn't you say you didn't want to be the wife of Master Qian Si? Then why did you come? Isn't this a slap in the face of the royal family? I am so embarrassed to see this. ]

[What's even more outrageous is that you actually dared to poop in front of the Third Prince just to avoid being selected? With such indecent behavior, you actually still came to participate in the Fourth Prince's selection? This is simply outrageous.]

Fu Cha Langya couldn't help but frown. Although what Miss Gao said was a bit rough, her logic was sound. If the Fourth Prince really had feelings for Princess Qingying, she could tolerate her. After all, it was common for a prince to have three wives and four concubines.

Although Concubine Xi was still smiling, her eyes were no longer smiling. If you looked closely, you could see that she looked a little disgusted. But on the surface, she still suppressed her unhappiness and said, "Princess Qingying, why are you so late? But since you are here, just stand there!"

What she was referring to was naturally the back of the concubines.

But Princess Qingying's main style is alternative, unruly, and challenging the imperial power. She actually inserted herself into the middle of the line of concubines in full view of everyone.

This kind of unusual and unruly behavior attracted the attention of the whole audience.

Qingying raised her eyes and glanced at the Ruyi in Langya's hand, and her face was immediately displeased.

If I had come a little later, wouldn't the position of Hongli's legitimate wife have really fallen into the hands of Fucha?

Previously, she had thought that the Third Prince was her aunt's adopted son and would certainly give her the position of legitimate wife. However, she had not expected that the Third Prince would be so ungrateful that not only did he not give her the position of legitimate wife, he even refused to give her the position of concubine.

The Third Prince wanted to send her away casually with the title of a princess, but it depended on whether she wanted it or not.

Fortunately, she was smart and was able to think quickly and used a trick to successfully get herself eliminated from the selection process.

But the Fourth Prince treated her differently. After all, she was living a new life, and she believed she could still control the mentality of a young man.

Qingying looked at Hongli with confidence and hope.

He will definitely take back the Ruyi that he gave away and make it his own.

Gao Xiyue was really embarrassed: [The old concubine has her eyes fixed on the Ruyi, which symbolizes the position of the legitimate wife. How dare she say she has no interest in such a blatant look? Aren’t you and the Fourth Master Qian like brothers? Why are you so fussy about it? ]

Fu Cha Langya was also slightly startled, and while holding Ruyi's hand tightly, she couldn't help feeling a little uneasy. There were rumors outside that the Fourth Prince and Princess Qingying were childhood sweethearts and were in love with each other, so she was afraid that she would have to give up her position as the legitimate wife.

However, Hongli's expression did not change. He quickly reached out and held Fu Cha Langya's hand, smiling, "What's wrong with Fu Jin? Maybe she is tired. I think we should stop the selection today so that Fu Jin can go back and prepare and marry me earlier."
