The Choice Queen's

TCQ 13: The New Life Disaster

Li Fengran walked without intention, sometimes his body was swept away by the wind that came blowing. He who is like this is like a paper kite whose rope is broken, ready to float and fall at any time.

His expression was also unsightly, making the palace maids who met him shudder in horror.

The news, in an instant, had already spread throughout the entire palace. I don't know which eunuch leaked the situation

in the court earlier, but clearly now everyone knows if someone has just been appointed as a Sword Starter.

Once in a lifetime, they can be part of the appointment of a second Stakeholder after First Queen Donghao.

“Master Sword, please,” said Wang Bi.

Now he even changed his calling, because the name “nona” is too feminine and the mention is only for ordinary noble girls.

Li Fengran let out a sigh of resignation, his steps shaky and powerless. Arriving inside the Qihua Hall, he saw Nangong Zirui standing on his back.

The man faced the window that led to the frozen pond that had already melted away. Jeez, Li Fengran suddenly got a bad feeling.

“East Wang, can I not meet His Majesty today?” ask her to Wang Bi. Wang Bi shook his head. The eunuch instead said, “Your Majesty, the Sword Stakeholder is already here.”

Nangong Zirui turned around. His eyes looked at Li Fengran, paying attention to the woman's appearance that looked depressed and powerless.

He knew the woman must be upset and trying to escape. However, no matter how hard he tried, he would not succeed. Nangong Zirui would not let go of anyone who harassed him, including Li Fengran.

Not only had this woman hit him and acted presumptuously as if she was unfamiliar, but she had also done many strange things that she had never seen in a lifetime.

Did Danchuan really have a daughter like this, who was so presumptuous and strange?

Wang Bi saw Li Fengran not immediately ducking, he then nudged him and whispered, “Give me a greeting.” Only then did Li Fengran become aware.

“Greetings to Your Majesty.”

His voice is stuck. Nangong Zirui walked over to him, Li Fengran's reflexes retreated. The man's face was very unsightly.

Not because of anger, but Li Fengran felt that this man had other intentions. His eyes were staring at him from earlier, to the point that Li Fengran felt that he was being skinned alive.

“Now you can be polite with me, yes?”

“Ahahaha. Your Majesty is so generous, can you not count it with a little brave person like me?” said Li Fengran.

“Oh yes? I just want to know how little guts Miss Li Fengran has from Danchuan.”

Nangong Zirui smirked. He saw Li Fengran was so depressed and tried to avoid him, and it was very funny in his opinion.

The other woman, as soon as she saw it, was instantly mesmerized and infatuated. This woman, even when teased, wanted to run away and was terrified. Really rare.

Li Fengran could not fight against a king, even though he was a martial master from the future.

This person before him was a real king, not a picture in his comic that he bought at that discount. His power and majesty far surpasses the description in the comic.

“I already know wrong. Your Majesty, please let me go,” Li Fengran said as Nangong Zirui drew closer. He closed his eyes and begged a little.

There was a small smile on Nangong Zirui's lips. He turned around again, then picked up a sword that had been stored on the table. Nangong Zirui then threw it towards Li Fengran.

“Take this!”

As Li Fengran opened his eyes and saw a sword hovering at him, he reflexively caught it with both hands.

The weight of the sword was roughly two kilograms, twice as heavy as the sword he had touched at the museum many years ago. The carving on the handle was very beautiful, there was a silver-colored tassel on the end.

“White Yueliang I can't give you. Take the sword instead!”

“Your Highness, do you seriously want to make me a Sword Starter?” asked Li Fengran.

“Zhen never toyed with the command.”

After that, Nangong Zirui left just like that from his aura. Li Fengran stared at his departure dumbly, puzzled by the man's intent.

He then turned to look at Wang Bi who was smiling to himself. The eunuch seemed to be very happy today.

“East Wang, what does this Your Majesty mean? He actually gave me a sword?”

“Do these things have history?”

“Of course. This Xingyu Sword was the first sword that His Majesty obtained from the late king as a reward for his victory against the four young masters of the four regions at the hunting competition when he was ten.”

Ten years? If calculated by his current age estimate, Nangong Zirui might already be twenty-seven years old.

The age of this sword means that it is seventeen years old. This was even older than his future classic toy. Li Fengran screeched.

“Your king gave me this dilapidated sword as a weapon to protect it?”

Instantly Wang Bi instantly covered Li Fengran's mouth with his hand. After making sure no one had heard Li Fengran's words just now, he had just taken it off.

The eunuch's expression was ugly. Li Fengran seemed to have already offended something and made him unhappy.

“This Xingyu Sword is His Majesty's beloved sword. He was not even willing to lend it to Guards Mo Wei. How can you say this sword is dilapidated?”

Ah, true. Li Fengran had already spoken recklessly and made this little eunuch unhappy. Regarding the history of this sword, Li Fengran really did not care.

For him, the sword is a sword. He was curious about the reason why Nangong Zirui suddenly gave his precious sword to him.

Wasn't the man annoyed at her and just wanted revenge?

“I will soon send your official uniform to Changsun Palace. Master Stakeholder Sword, please come back and wait until His Majesty gives his next instruction,” Wang Bi said after his sense of regret subsided.

“Oke.”

After which, Li Fengran walked out of Qihua Palace while carrying Xingyu Sword.

...***...

“Heh, what qualifications did he have until His Majesty raised him to be the Sword Stakeholder?”

Su Min, the girl from Jinchuan who was newly appointed as a concubine complained in a loud voice. Today too, he was immediately transferred to the Back Palace and given a palace located to the north of Queen Donghao's palace.

Next to her was the palace for Fei Jia, the girl from Mochuan who was also appointed as a concubine with her. Meanwhile, Shen Lihua of Zichuan who was crowned as the future queen occupied the second largest palace after Queen Donghao's palace. It was somewhat separate from the palace of the concubines.

“She was even given a palace residence separate from the harem. Huh, that girl from Danchuan is really lucky!”

Hearing that complaint, Fei Jia also unwillingly responded. He also wondered why the King suddenly raised the Sword Stakeholder.

Regarding the appointment of concubines, it may be understandable because at this time the relationship of the four regions began to stretch so that they must use marriage to strengthen the bond. But the matter of the Sword Stakeholder, is really unexpected.

Before leaving for the capital Donghao, Fei Jia was once told that he might not be repatriated and that was indeed the case, but he did not expect all the women from the four regions to not be repatriated either.

Three went into the harem, one became the king's companion. When it comes to luck, of course the girl from Danchuan named Li Fengran is the luckiest.

“Talent is ordinary. He also never seems to have been educated in manners. What made His Majesty the King look at him so much that he raised him to be the Sword Starter?” ask Fei Jia. Su Min shook his head in annoyance.

“Thinking of His Majesty the King, who knows and who would dare to guess it?”

Suddenly they were startled by someone's voice from behind. Upon turning his head, Shen Lihua came with her servant.

The woman who was newly appointed as the future queen has changed clothes and wears luxury clothes.

The accessories are numerous and almost fill the head, making the eyes glare if it collides with sunlight. Thankfully, the weather was not too hot today.

“Your Highness,” Fei Jia and Su Min instantly stood up in welcome.

“Sstt.. Call me sister only, Queen Donghao's position is not mine yet,” Shen Lihua said as she sat down. “Why are you complaining? Are you not satisfied with the verdict given by the King?”

Su Min and Fei Jia immediately shook their heads. “Not, we certainly do not dare to feel dissatisfied. It's just that we feel that Li Fengran is no better than us. When compared to you, it is clearly like heaven and earth.”

“Adik Su, can't talk like that. The woman should be humble. Perhaps the King had other considerations concerning the Danchuan emissary. As a woman belonging to the King, should not compare yourself to others,” Shen Lihua said.

Fei Jia nodded, as did Su Min.

“It should be that the highest luck belongs to Brother Shen only. Girl from Danchuan, not suitable to have that luck,” said Fei Jia.

Shen Lihua responded with a smile.
