The Fourth Lady
Chapter 601 Golden Phoenix Hairpin (Ⅲ)

Although Feng Chengyue didn't understand the meaning of Qingyan's words, she still vaguely realized that the empress she meant was herself.

She was the empress Su Qingyan had chosen? Not that Sikong Zhaoya? After all, she was a princess without support from mother. In a sense, Sikong Zhaoya was the best choice, but why did Su Qingyan choose her? Or was this just a test? Watching the expression on Feng Chengyue's face, Qingyan said in a low voice, "you don't believe me?"

Yvjing smiled and said, "Yanyan is very important to our Nanchen Kingdom, so if she choose someway, that is also his majesty's choice."

Feng Chengyue was stunned by what Yvjing had said. Earlier, what Su Qingyan said made her suspicious. Now, when she was certain that Qingyan wanted her to become the empress. But why? "Why?" Feng Chengyue cast a glance at them and said in confusion, "I think that Sikong Zhaoya is more suitable for the position of the empress than I am. Why do you choose me?"

Qingyan smiled and said, "I don't take Sikong Zhaoya seriously. Besides, Sikong Zhaoya's mother killed the grandmother of the new emperor. Do you think he will marry her?" While looking at Feng Chengyue, Yvjing nodded her head seriously and said, "you must have known how my brother treated Sikong Zhaoya yesterday, right?"

When Feng Chengyue thought of the scene she had seen yesterday, he also knew how Yvning treated Sikong Zhaoya.

It was obvious that he showed no respect to Sikong Zhaoya.

"What are you worrying about?" Qingyan smiled at Feng Chengyue and said, "how could you still doubt my words? Do you think I am not able to confirm the new emperor's empress?"

Feng Chengyue looked at them, shook her head and said, "No. I was just wondering why you have chosen me. I am not the best candidate."

"I don't need an empress who is capable of taking control of the new emperor. You are the best choice." Looking at Feng Chengyue, Qingyan said with a smile, "because I will become your strongest backup." Hearing this, the eyes of Feng Chengyue widened. What ability did the girl in front of her have? Was she really only a princess? Or perhaps she was not just the daughter of Marquis Dingguo, Su Qingyan? Yvjing walked up to Feng Chengyue and gave her a sincere smile. "Yanyan is not as simple as she looks. If you want to be the empress, she and I will help you remove all the obstacles." Hearing what Yvjing said, Feng Chengyue turned to look at Su Qingyan again, and finally opened her mouth as if she had made up her mind, "I want to be the empress. I hope you can help me." Seeing her facial expression, Qingyan walked up to her and said, "I will make a deal to help you become the empress."

Feng Chengyue looked at Qingyan and nodded seriously. "I understand it. As long as I can be the empress, I will not interfere in your decision. After all, my father also hopes that I can have a good husband." Qingyan looked at Feng Chengyue and nodded earnestly. "It's good for you to understand, but I also know that everyone has his or her own difficulties, not to mention a country."

Obviously, Feng Chengyue didn't expect that Qingyan would say such words. But with the promise of Qingyan, it was okay even if it meant Beilin Kingdom would be subordinate to the Nanchen Kingdom. "Princess Rongyue, you should understand what I mean." Qingyan looked at Feng Chengyue and said with a smile, "I think you know clearly what I want, or perhaps you can also say what the Nanchen Kingdom wants." Feng Chengyue nodded earnestly. "I know. So, don't worry. I won't let you down."

A slight smile appeared on Yvjing's face. She said, "you should know becoming the empress makes many other people your enemies, including that Sikong Zhaoya."

Feng Chengyue nodded earnestly as she looked at Yvjing and said, "I know that very well. Since I've chosen this position, I'll defend my honor that belongs to me." "Well said." Qingyan smilingly looked at Feng Chengyue and said, "Hanyue, from now on, you just need to stay by Princess Rongyue's side to protect her."

Then she saw a girl in pink dress, dressed as a common maid, but she knew that the girl's kungfu was no less than Tianyou.

"Yes, I will." Hanyue greeted Qingyan respectfully. Then, she turned to look at Feng Chengyue and greeted respectfully, "Hello, my master."

Feng Chengyue asked with a smile as she watched Hanyue's face, "will you be my girl from now on?"

Hanyue looked at Feng Chengyue and nodded earnestly. "Yes. Please give me a new name."

Looking at Hanyue, Feng Chengyue seemed to be thinking about the name and added, "there are only Luomei and Luolan who are the first-class maids around me. Now that I only bring Luomei with me when I come here, can you named Luozhu from now on?" Hearing Feng Chengyue's words, Hanyue turned to look at Qingyan. Qingyan nodded earnestly, and then Hanyue said respectfully, "thank you for giving me a name. I like it very much."

Feng Chengyue then walked to Luozhu and helped her up. "Luozhu, you can stay by my side and take care of me from now on. I will treat you well," she said.

Fixing her eyes on Feng Chengyue, Luozhu still said respectfully, "thank you, mistress."

"Luozhu, please take care of the life of Princess Rongyue from now on. If anything happens to her, you can go back to the headquarters to receive punishment yourself." Qingyan looked at Luozhu and stated with a serious look, "and I'm sure that Sikong Zhaoya'll take actions against Princess Rongyue recently. Send someone to protect her."

Luozhu looked at Qingyan with respect. "I understand. Don't worry, Miss. I will protect Princess Rongyue, whether it is now or in the future."

Qingyan looked at Luozhu and nodded earnestly. Then, she walked over to Feng Chengyue, and looked at her with a smile on her face. "What if Sikong Zhaoya gets you in trouble? What do you do?" she asked.

Feng Chengyue stared at Qingyan and said softly, "now that you're protecting me, I don't think Sikong Zhaoya will make trouble for me easily. What's more, if she does make trouble for me in the imperial palace, then she will be in trouble too."

Qingyan nodded earnestly to her. Qingyan knew that Feng Chengyue had her own plan, but she liked Feng Chengyue very much because she thought that Feng Chengyue's personality is complementary to that of Yvning. Feng Chengyue's gentle character could ease Yvning's aggressive heart.
