Chapter 69:
Changle was delighted when she heard that Su Li wanted to give her a gift. She didnt even care if Su Li was planning to use her own money. After all, Su Li was her husband, so it would be reasonable for him to use the princesss mansion money to buy her a gift.
Its not about being tight on money Su Li sighed.
Eh? Then what is it? What are you doing? Changle exclaimed in surprise, and Su Li had already rushed to her.
Outside the room, a female officer had intended to deliver Zhangsun Chongs worship post. However, unexpectedly, she overheard the sounds from inside the room.
The female officers expression changed, and she retreated with a smile. In ancient times, it was common for couples to consummate their marriage at a young age, especially given the shorter average lifespans. Moreover, Princess Changle and Su Li were a legally wedded couple.
Being perceptive, the female officer understood the situation and chose not to disturb Princess Changle and Su Li during this special moment. Instead, she took Zhangsun Chongs worship post, stepped outside, and reached the doorway. Her smiling face instantly turned solemn, restoring her cold indifference as she approached Zhangsun Chong.
The princess has just woken up and is not feeling well enough to get out of bed. Its inconvenient to receive visitors. I hope the young master understands. The female officer handed the worship post back to Zhangsun Chong.
Zhangsun Chong watched the female officers departing figure with a sense of desolation, feeling a bit sad about his life.
How is it possible? My cousin must have me in her heart!
It must be that wicked peasants doing!
Zhangsun Chong thought of different possibilities and found it hard to accept that he was still being rejected by Princess Changle even after her awakening.
My cousin has just woken up. Naturally, she might not be feeling well He consoled himself with a smile.Ñøv€l--ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.
Separated by a wall, outside was the fluttering snow carried by the northern wind. Inside, it was a mix of affection and love, mutual dependence
Zhangsun Chongs dejected figure gradually moved farther away, disappearing like a defeated dog.
On the other side, within the palace, Li Er and Yuan Tiangang sat across from each other at a table. There was simmering tea infused with star anise, cinnamon, geranium, and tea leaves on the table. The hot water constantly bubbled, and a pleasant fragrance filled the air from the burning incense nearby.
How is what Su Li said about Bai Yujing true or false? Li Er repeated Su Lis poem and description of Bai Yujing to Yuan Tiangang.
The poem is well-crafted Yuan Tiangang touched his beard and chuckled.
Yuan Tiangang skillfully went through the divination process, focusing entirely on the task. When the cracks in the tortoiseshell were set, and the copper coins had been cast, it took about fifteen minutes. Yuan Tiangang then put away the tools of divination.
Is it done? Li Er inquired, looking at Yuan Tiangang.
Its done! Yuan Tiangang nodded.
Hows the hexagram? Li Er asked, his curiosity piqued.
Auspicious! Yuan Tiangang answered with a serious tone.
Could you elaborate? Li Er leaned in closer, excited to hear the details.
Your Majesty, the consort is an auspicious individual for the nation! Yuan Tiangang spoke up.
How so? Li Er asked.
If Your Majesty can value and be close to the consort, the nation will prosper greatly, Yuan Tiangang replied with a smile.
How should I value him? What position should I give him? Li Er continued to inquire.
Its up to Your Majesty to decide. I can only divine up to this point. If the position is right, the Tang Dynasty will naturally flourish, Yuan Tiangang explained.
Is that all? Li Er asked.
Any great auspicious sign indicates good luck and prosperity. There are often extraordinary events associated with such individuals. If Your Majesty gets close to the consort, the luck of the Tang Dynasty will gradually rise! Yuan Tiangang rose from his seat, swaying slightly.
Your Majesty, Im not feeling well today. Please allow me to take my leave. Yuan Tiangang requested, hinting at his physical discomfort.
Li Er didnt stop Yuan Tiangang. He had achieved his goal of receiving a hexagram reading. However, faced with Yuan Tiangangs words, Li Er faced a dilemma. Could it be that simply valuing and being close to Su Li would bring prosperity to the Tang Dynasty? Could something so auspicious be true?
How should he value Su Li? What official position should he offer? Could there be consequences if he placed Su Li in the wrong position?
Li Er was left with a lot to ponder. The divination had guided him, but now he had to decide how to act on it.
