Bravely enter the heavens and become a god

Chapter 112 The Future 3 Princes' Concubines

In the main hall of Yuchen Palace, Hua Yuchen sat on a huge jade throne, with five generals standing on each side. General Shi spoke first: "Your Highness, the demons led the magic beasts to raid the First Heaven Fairy Garden yesterday..."

Hua Yuchen's face darkened instantly. He raised his hand and took over the conversation, saying, "I already know about this!"

Another general asked in confusion, "Yesterday's sneak attack seemed to be just a test. This doesn't fit in with the strategic means of the demons! They have always been well-planned. How could they use such a small number of troops to test our heaven? Wouldn't this alert the enemy?"

Hua Yuchen was also suspicious of these words. He thought to himself, "If they knew that the War God's body was in the Immortal Garden, they would definitely deploy a large number of troops and not use such a small-scale sneak attack to test it. If that were the case, Luo Ying would have been captured by them, or already..."

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shudder in his heart, and dared not think any further. He frowned and muttered to himself: "There must be something fishy about this. What kind of medicine are they selling?"

At this moment, there were some subtle noises coming from the side of the hall. Everyone looked to the side and saw Luo Ying tiptoeing out. Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he smiled at them awkwardly and said, "I'm sorry to bother you guys from talking about business...you guys chat...you guys chat..."

When Hua Yuchen saw that the person coming was Luo Ying, the cold expression on his face instantly disappeared, replaced by a full face of peach blossoms. His eyes were tender and the corners of his mouth turned up, forming a charming smile. The generals were all stunned when they saw the rapid change of Hua Yuchen's expression.

Hua Yuchen looked at Luo Ying with eyes full of love that could no longer be hidden. He asked gently, "Where are you going?"

Luo Ying quickly replied: "I... went to learn from Sister Han Yue."

Hua Yuchen smiled dotingly at her, waved her hand and said, "Go!"

He held his chin with one hand and tilted his head to watch her walk out of the hall. His eyes never left her, and his face was full of a doting smile like an infatuated lover.

The generals couldn't bear to watch it anymore and warned him with soft coughs.

Hua Yuchen came back to his senses and saw that they were staring at him blankly. He quickly sat up straight, put on his dignity again, and said in a low voice: "Why are you all looking at me like that?"

General Shi joked, "This is the first time I see Your Highness smile! Our Heavenly Palace's famous thousand-year-old ice cube can even smile! I thought Your Highness didn't have the smile gene."

Hua Yuchen was choked by his words and coughed a few times with his fist clenched beside his mouth.

General Luo asked in confusion: "This fairy looks unfamiliar. I have never seen her in heaven before!"

General Yi joked, "I think it looks familiar. Could it be the little white rabbit we met in the Fairy Garden before?"

Hua Yuchen glared at him fiercely, and General Yi quickly lowered his head;

General Cheng asked curiously, "Could it be... the future consort of the Third Prince?"

Hua Yuchen smiled shyly when he heard this and said:

"Ok!"

General You joked excitedly, "This future Third Prince's consort is so adorable! No wonder she melted our ten-thousand-year-old ice cube."

Hearing this, Hua Yuchen became displeased instantly and glared at him murderously.

General Shi quickly tried to smooth things over, saying, "General You, she is your Highness's woman, stop making irresponsible comments."

When General You saw Hua Yuchen's murderous look, he quickly put away his joking expression.

Luo Ying and Shao Hanyue stood in the outer garden. Shao Hanyue said sourly, "Sister, you are so lucky! The Third Prince is really in love with you! He is the dream lover of all the goddesses in our heaven! How many people want to live in his Yuchen Palace."

Luo Ying smiled awkwardly and interrupted, "Let's not talk about him anymore, let's talk about the Grain in Ear solar term!"

Shao Hanyue also retracted her envious expression and said, "Okay! What do you want to know?"

Luo Ying asked: "Why is this solar term called Grain in Ear?"

Shao Hanyue answered seriously: "Mang refers to the fine thorns on the ears of rice or wheat. They are very prickly to the touch. You can see it by looking at the idioms with the word awn. There are needles against wheat awns, and the awns are exposed. It is like a thorn on the back. So the literal meaning of awn is that wheat with awns is ready to be harvested, and rice with awns can be planted, which means busy planting.

So during the Grain in Ear season, farmers are very busy, because there is a proverb that goes, "If you don't plant during the Grain in Ear season, it's useless to plant again." It means that if you plant again after the Grain in Ear season, it's useless and you won't get anything. This also tells people that everything should be done at the right time. What you can do now can be expected in the future."

When Shao Hanyue said this, she suddenly made a plan in her heart: "Indeed, everything requires timing. If you can do it now, you can expect it in the future. I must make good use of the opportunity in the next few days to get close to the third prince and strive for the position of concubine."

Seeing her in a daze, Luo Ying waved his hand in front of her and said, "Hey! Sister Hanyue, what are you thinking about?"

Shao Hanyue quickly came back to her senses and asked, "Where were we talking about just now?"

Luo Ying said: "Let's talk about the origin of the name of the Grain in Ear solar term."

Shao Hanyue said: "Yes, Grain in Ear is the ninth solar term among the twenty solar terms and the third solar term in summer. It is held from June 6th to 5th every year. During this period, the temperature rises significantly, the rainfall is abundant, and the air humidity is high, which is suitable for the planting of late rice and other cereal crops. Farming is divided by the 'Grain in Ear' solar term. After this period, the survival rate of planting becomes lower and lower."

Luo Ying asked again: "Are there any interesting legends about Grain in Ear?"

Shao Hanyue said: "There is a very famous story called "Talking about Heroes over Green Plum Wine". During the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Cao was always wary of Liu Bei. Therefore, he invited Liu Bei to come over during the Grain in Ear Festival. While drinking this green plum wine, he wanted to test whether Liu Bei had the ambition to dominate the world. Cao asked, Liu Bei, who do you think can be called a hero of the time? Liu Bei replied that Yuan Shao, Sun Quan, and Lu Bu were all heroes. Cao Cao shook his head and said that only you and I can be called heroes. Liu Bei was shocked when he heard this, and his chopsticks fell to the ground. But it happened that a loud thunder sounded in the sky at this time. Liu Bei said that he was afraid of thunder, so he scared the chopsticks off. Seeing that Liu Bei was so timid, Cao Cao laughed and let down his guard. In the end, Liu Bei achieved great success."

Luo Ying couldn't help but sigh and said, "It turns out that people who know how to pretend to be weak at the right time can achieve great things!"

Shao Hanyue's heart trembled when she heard Luo Ying say this, and she muttered to herself, "Could she have discovered my plan?"

At this time, Hua Yuchen and several generals came out of the hall one after another. Shao Hanyue saw Hua Yuchen walking towards them and hurried forward to attract his attention: "Your Highness..."

Hua Yuchen simply ignored her and walked past her and went straight to Luo Ying. Shao Hanyue instantly felt disappointed and turned to look in the direction of Luo Ying and Hua Yuchen, the flames of jealousy in her heart growing stronger and stronger.
