The Princess Of 100 Talents
Chapter #75

From this part Lin Yao will be called Empress An.

At the Xiao residence, the three family heads who had dealt with them had come.

"Mr Qin, mister Lu and mister Min. What's the matter of the three of you coming to my house?" Said mister Xiao.

"Mr Xiao, we came here because our three children who had poisoned young master Xiao, were currently exposed to unknown poisons." Said mister Lu.

"Then why are you coming to my house?"

The three heads of the family looked at each other.

"Master Xiao, we would like you to introduce us to the person who has helped young master Xiao. To help us heal our three children." Said mr. Qin.

"Sorry sir, I can't do it. If you want you can talk directly to the one who started Prince Rong."

The three family heads were shocked as well at a loss, as they had to talk to prince Rong who had nothing to do with this.

"Mr Xiao, what do you mean by we having to talk to his highness prince Rong?" Said mister Lu.

"Because the one who has helped my son is the noble consort, she is the wife that yesterday the noble prince Rong married."

Everyone inside the hall of the Xiao family residence was shocked, they certainly did not expect that the person who had helped young master Xiao from the dangerous poison was a woman who was married yesterday by prince Rong.

"Master Xiao, you're not kidding with us are you? How could it be if his highness empress An, who had saved young master Xiao?" Said Mr. Min in disbelief.

"I'm not lying, if you don't believe what I'm saying, you can talk to your highness prince Rong yourself. Because I certainly have no right, to ask your majesty Empress An to help the three of you help them."

Master Lu, master Qin and master Min looked at each other. They certainly did not have the courage to talk to the notoriously cold and ruthless prince Rong.

"Mr Xiao, we beg of you to help us. Our three children are currently unable to walk and talk, we have also had some healers come to check on the three of them. But they could only provide medicine to keep the poison from spreading throughout the bodies of our three children, because they did not know about the poison." Said mr. Qin.

"I'm sorry, it's not me who decides. But his highness prince Rong and his highness empress An. And is this not a lesson to your three children, that they may not do what degrades others."

The three heads of the family were silent, what master Xiao said was true. Because all this time they have often spoiled their three children.

"Did they not say where the man who had given them poison was to my son? It's possible that person could help you, find the antidote." Said mister Xiao.

Master Qin shook his head, "No, they don't want to talk. Even if they talk, they don't seem to know where the person lives."

The real Master Xiao had found out that the man had been captured by Prince Rong, only nodding. He certainly wouldn't tell them where the man who had made the flower poison that night was.

"Sorry gentlemen, I still have business to handle now." Said mister Xiao.

"Well, then we'll be back." Said mister Lu.

Master Xiao nodded, "Yes."

The three family heads then stood up and walked out of the Xiao family residence.

Mister Xiao who was just escorting them to the front of the puntu hall saw the three people.

Mister Xiao might be able to resist killing them, but he would no longer be willing to help the three families he had once helped. Because he had felt very disappointed towards the three families.

In the reading room, Empress An was sitting next to Prince Rong while helping her husband refine the ink seeds that would be used to write by Prince Rong.

"Lin'er, I heard that mom has cleared our room in the pavilion. Should we go home early?" Prince Rong.

"Li, is it okay if you stay outside the royal palace?"

"Of course it doesn't matter. This has been my decision, and I have also spoken to the emperor's father regarding this matter."

"But, Li....."

"I have also said to the father of the emperor, if I will never choose another woman to be made a concubine."

Empress An stopped and looked at prince Rong.

"Prince Rong grabbed the hand of Empress An, then clasped it.

"Listen, I have promised and sworn to you as well as mother, if I will never hurt you. And I know, if I had a concubine next to me, I'd definitely hurt you, and I wouldn't want you to feel that way."

"Your majesty."

"If I marry another woman, it means I've been attracted to that woman. But I've never been attracted to anyone, and you've been the one who's been interested in me all this time. So my empress, I don't want you to have any thoughts about it anymore. Because I'll never share it all with another woman."

Empress An was stunned, she really did not expect that prince Rong would say such a sweet thing to her.

"In two days we will return to the pavilion, and will begin our new life there."

"Good."

Prince Rong smiled, the woman in front of him is indeed so strong and talented. She has a fragile side, and is afraid of getting hurt when she has become comfortable with someone.

"I'm gonna get this over with, and it's gonna take you to a secret place." Prince Rong.

"Confidential place?"

"True, one day if we feel like enjoying the coolness that is so peaceful, we can go there."

"Is that a private pavilion you own?"

"Yes, I hope you'll like it."

Empress An nodded, then continued to help prince Rong refine the ink.

Seeing his empress so faithfully accompanying him at the side, prince Rong felt extremely happy. Because it was the first time he worked in the company of a woman, and that woman was the woman who had made him so interested and did not want him to leave.
