The Tales of a Blessed Daughter

Chapter 178: Nalan Cui’s Ascension to the Throne

Everyone was stunned.

As soon as he finished speaking, a thirteen-year-old youth walked into the imperial court.

Nalan Cui had been raised in Guang Residence for this period of time. He no longer looked as frail as he had in the past.

His entire person was in high spirits. He looked just like a jade-like youth.

Nalan Cui calmly walked past the ministers and stood by Gu Ruoyun’s side. He bowed and said, “Teacher.”

Although Gu Ruoyun did not pay much attention to him, because of Su Yan, he had taught him a lot of things.

To Nalan Cui, what Gu Ruoyun thought was useless was a well-known saying.

Hence, he addressed him as ‘teacher’ sincerely.

At this moment, the ministers could vaguely see a familiar figure in his facial features.

Old Master Su stepped forward and asked, “You are… the seventh prince?”

Nalan Cui smiled and nodded when he saw that he was from Su Yan’s maternal family.

Old Master Su’s eyes reddened and he said in a gratified manner, “That’s great. You’ve grown so much. You’re a good child.”

Nalan Cui had stayed in the Su family for a period of time so Old Master Su knew him.

The ministers were a little displeased but they did not object when they saw Gu Ruoyun’s face.

Just like that, Nalan Cui sat on the throne and became the first emperor without the coronation.

However, he did not care much about this.

At this moment, he was standing in the imperial study. He was suffocating and his fair and tender face was pale.

Gu Ruoyun was sitting opposite him.

Nalan Cui saw that he had not changed his mind and his expression was rather gloomy.

Gu Ruoyun, however, looked very happy. He stroked his sleeves and stood up, “You’re already the Emperor. Naturally, you have to stay in the imperial palace. I’ll be going back first.”

He even gave him a smile for the first time.

Gu Ruoyun walked briskly back. When he thought that this kid would no longer be able to occupy Su Yan’s attention, his heart was filled with joy.

At this moment, Su Yan was sitting on a small boat with Chu Tao and Chun Xia, collecting lotus pods.

They had just discovered that a lotus flower had grown out of the pond in Guang Residence. A lotus flower meant a lotus pod.

Su Yan, who possessed the glutton attribute, immediately made the decision and went into the water to pick up the lotus pod.

She had found this small boat in the warehouse. There was a group of soldiers standing around the pond. They were all looking at Su Yan nervously, afraid that the princess consort would encounter any danger.

Su Yan felt that this was a little exaggerated. It was just a pond with half a human height. Even if she fell into it, it would not be a big deal.

There was only a lotus flower standing quietly in the middle of the pool.

This scene was unexpectedly beautiful. It was more artistic than the surface of the water that was surrounded by countless lotus flowers.

Su Yan and the other two paddled the small boat and slowly approached. As expected, they found the lotus pod under the water.

Su Yan’s eyes flashed with surprise. She quickly picked the lotus pod and began to think about how to eat it.

Chu Tao suddenly cried out in surprise.

The three of them looked over and saw that the wooden planks of the small boat had actually split open.

Su Yan said, “Let’s row back quickly.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the small boat could no longer bear the weight and spread out in all directions.

The surrounding inner guards quickly flew out. Gu Ruoyun, who had just returned, was even faster than them.

Su Yan was held in Gu Ruoyun’s arms. She quickly turned her head to look at Chu Tao and Chun Xia’s situation.

The random inner guards had also brought them ashore.

Gu Ruoyun’s expression was cold as he asked, “What’s going on? How could you let the Princess Consort do such a dangerous thing?”

The soldiers all knelt in a row.

Su Yan quickly pulled him back and said, “I wanted to go myself. It’s none of their business.”

Gu Ruoyun sighed helplessly and said, “What are you doing in the water?”

Su Yan rolled her eyes and lifted the lotus pod that she had not thrown away despite the danger. She smiled and said, “I’m picking the lotus pod for you to eat.”

Gu Ruoyun did not expose her little trick. He took the lotus pod from her hand and said, “Alright.”

Su Yan could only watch helplessly as the lotus pod was taken away by him.
