Chapter 528 The Eldest Princess is Not Love-Obsessed (1)
Finally, Pangu learned about the Book of Fate from the Heavenly Emperor of a small world; it was written by the God of Fate.
Although the world depicted by Si Ming in their world is incomplete, there is one thing that Pangu and Wangyou desperately need: a rich power of love. Although those gods often want to destroy the three realms for love, it doesn't matter.
Pangu, with a "nothing to lose" mentality, placed Wangyou in this ailing world and had Siming write a script for her, hoping it would be somewhat useful.
To add to the fun, the gods also equipped Wangyou with a system to prevent any mishaps.
……
In the thirty-fourth year of the reign of Emperor Zhaode of the Wei Kingdom, Emperor Zhaode passed away, and Crown Prince Qi Xiu ascended the throne. He bestowed upon his mother, the Empress Dowager, the title of Empress Dowager, and upon his younger sister, Qi Wangyou, the title of the First Princess of the Great Wei.
The reign title was changed to Chengwu.
"Brother, I've moved out of the palace. Will you miss me?"
"Would you be willing to stay in the palace if I allowed you to?"
"I'll come back when I'm tired of playing outside," Wangyou said with a grin.
"By the way, Mother said you'll be coming of age next month, so it's time to start preparing for your marriage. Do you have any ideas?"
"No, I'm not in a hurry, I'm still young," Wangyou said, shaking her head.
“Alright, my sister Qi Xiu can have any kind of man she wants. If all else fails, I’ll organize a talent show for you and find you a few more male concubines.” The more Qi Xiu talked about it, the better he thought the idea was.
"Brother, stop! Your sister doesn't have the money to support so many people." Wangyou waved her hand in refusal.
"Brother, you can have it!"
"Brother, come on, you've just ascended the throne, everything costs money, and the mourning period has just ended, so you'll probably have to hold a talent show soon."
“I can give it to you from my private treasury.”
"Brother, I'll just look for it in your private vault whenever I want it," Wangyou said, shaking the key in her hand.
Qi Xiu was helpless; he had forgotten that his younger sister also had a key to his private vault.
"Okay, if someone bullies you outside, just fight back."
"Understood, Your Majesty, I'm leaving." Wangyou waved and departed gracefully.
Back at Muyun Pavilion, after packing his things, he went to stay at the Princess's residence outside the palace.
That evening, an electronic sound played and then disappeared.
The next day, Wangyou discovered that there was something that could talk in her mind.
This thing also told her that she was the female protagonist of this world, and that her official partner was the Marquis of Anding. The Marquis of Anding would become the third-ranked scholar in the imperial examination in three months and eventually become her consort. The little system also encouraged Wangyou to get to know the Marquis of Anding in advance and build up her favor with him.
Wangyou tilted her head back and thought for a long time, but she couldn't figure out which little cookie this Marquis of Anding was. So she simply stopped thinking about it and directly called her maid Tingyu over.
"Tingyu, go and find out more about Marquis Anding for me. I need detailed information about him."
"Yes, princess."
The secret guards investigated quickly, and by evening, Wangyou was looking at the information on the paper, her mind in a whirl.
The system was completely stunned. Shouldn't a normal person be curious and go see what the person looks like? Why is this person suddenly starting an investigation?
"Little system, who sent you? I wouldn't even look at this thing if I were blind," Wangyou complained to the little system as she looked at it.
"But that's what it says in the destiny book! And the Marquis of Anding is handsome, knowledgeable, and talented!" The little system felt that this was different from the script it had been given. What should it do next?
"Look at this information: a mean-spirited mother, a weak and helpless cousin, and a vain younger sister. Not to mention his family, he himself is all show and no substance. He's secretly having an affair with his cousin, yet he acts like a charming gentleman on the surface. Little system, who are you trying to disgust?!"
"Is it that bad? I'm sorry, host, I don't know either. Let me check." The little system hurriedly went to call for help.
Pangu and Siming were observing. Pangu glared fiercely at Siming, who trembled with fear.
“Great God, this Great God is from the same source as you, the Book of Fate cannot control her,” Si Ming explained desperately, adding that it was just an experiment at the time.
"Try it as much as you can. Once Wangyou completely loses her emotional roots, the three thousand worlds will face a catastrophe." Pangu's expression was solemn.
"I will do my best." Even if he can't make any difference, he still has to put on a show.
……
When Wangyou finally gave up waiting for the little system to return, she simply tossed the data aside and didn't take the matter to heart.
"Princess, the Duke of Dingguo's mansion has sent an invitation. They will be holding a flower viewing party in three days. Will you be attending?"
"Go ahead, we're just killing time anyway, might as well join in the fun."
On the day of the flower viewing party, Wangyou dressed up and went out with her maids and guards. No matter what, the princess's entourage could not be small, otherwise she would be looked down upon over time.
Upon arrival, Wangyou discovered that the so-called flower viewing party was actually a disguised matchmaking event, but since she was already there, not watching the fun wasn't her style.
Wangyou's identity destined her to be the focus of attention, so as soon as she appeared, many noble ladies came forward to greet her.
"Princess, please come with me."
When Wangyou arrived at the place with Situ Shan, the eldest daughter of the Duke of Dingguo's mansion, she saw many noble ladies gathered together, either reciting poems or composing couplets.
Wangyou wasn't familiar with any of these noble ladies. When they tried to find her a study companion when she was little, she refused. Wangyou also didn't like interacting with people, so she had absolutely no close friends.
So when these noble ladies saw Wangyou, they didn't know what to say, but they couldn't just leave her there.
"You guys do your thing, don't worry about me. I'm just going to go check on the flowers over there," Wangyou said with a smile, politely declining Situ Shan's offer to stay with her.
These flowers are all rare and precious varieties, especially the Wei Zi and Yao Huang peonies, which are top-quality varieties, with each plant worth thousands of taels of silver, and those of excellent quality can fetch astronomical prices.
Wangyou was looking at a Wei Zi plant, and after smelling it, she was indeed not disappointed at all.
"This smells awful, who said it smells good?" Wangyou retorted expressionlessly.
They were used to listening to the rain and the wind; the princesses weren't particularly interested in admiring flowers.
The rare flowers that others consider priceless are perhaps only slightly better appreciated by orchids. Peonies and chrysanthemums, on the other hand, are considered to smell terrible by her. Who on earth likes them?
"Does the princess not like these flowers?" a strange voice asked.
"It looks nice from a distance, but I don't like it up close, and it doesn't smell good either."
"Your Highness's insights are truly remarkable; I have learned a great deal."
"Whose son are you, daring to be here? This is a place for women."
"I am Shangguan Yi, the second young master of the General's Mansion. This is my first time visiting the Duke of Dingguo's residence. I got lost and was just passing by when I saw Her Highness the Princess."
"Oh, I don't know the way either. You should ask someone else." Wangyou turned around and led Tingyu and Tingfeng to continue looking for pretty and fragrant flowers.
