"Hey, our prince really dotes on the princess. Look at those gifts. How can any girl in Kyoto City be treated like this?" My aunt said with a smile.

"What Madam said is that our young lady is so lucky."

door.

Disagreeing with the joy of others, Shen Bozhong's expression was a little gloomy.

Marrying a daughter is not a happy thing for a father.

Over the years, he has raised Shen Ning up by himself, but he has taken advantage of other boys.

This guy only really cares about Shen Ning...

Unfortunately, I am in the royal family.

In the Qin Kingdom, three days after the wedding of the royal family, the princess will start to choose the concubine, so as to spread the branches and leaves of the royal family.

Shen Bozhong... was afraid of wronging Shen Ning.

"Daddy..." Shen Ning called softly.

Shen Bozhong nodded and bowed respectfully. "See His Highness the King of Jin."

Xiao Junhe hurriedly stepped forward. "Prime Minister, there is no need to be polite."

The Qin State is a very classy country, and the royal family's face is more important than anything else.

Even if the emperor's power was emptied out by the Liu family, the dignity and status of the royal family still stood above everything else.

Although Shen Bozhong is the prince's father-in-law, he is still the king and his minister, and they cannot be separated clearly.

"Ning'er misses home. I'm going back today. I want Ning'er to stay at home for a while. I wonder if the Prime Minister would like that?" Xiao Junhe knew that Mr. Shen didn't want to let go of his daughter.

Shen Bozhong stopped for a moment and looked at Xiao Junhe thoughtfully.

Letting his daughter stay in the mansion for a few more days would be more effective for Shen Bozhong than the congratulatory gifts of several carriages.

It's hard to see that this rough guy fighting on the battlefield actually has a delicate side.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty." Shen Bozhong said calmly.

Shen Ning's heart felt warm. She lowered her head and held Xiao Junhe's hand, carefully scraping his palm with her fingers to express her gratitude.

Xiao Junhe felt a numbness in his palms, which spread throughout his body...

He seemed to understand what Shen Ning meant.

With a chuckle, Xiao Junhe held Shen Ning's hand tighter.

Perhaps no one else could see the little moves between the newlyweds, but the woman serving tea could see it clearly.

I feel a little envious and slightly jealous.

Why is Shen Ning always so lucky?

It’s okay to be born into the prime minister’s family, and you can still marry the prince.

"Xiuhua, what do you think of my makeup?" the woman serving tea asked in a low voice.

The maid nodded quickly. "Miss, it looks good."

The woman raised her chin in satisfaction.

She did not feel that her appearance was inferior to that of Shen Ning. If Shen Ning chose a concubine for the prince, she would have to choose one from her own family first.

Only by choosing someone from her own family can she stabilize her position in the palace.

Even if others gain favor, the princess' status can be guaranteed to be stable.

"Sister, brother-in-law." The woman walked over with tea in hand, deliberately unsteady on her feet, and fell into Xiao Junhe's arms.

The hot tea was poured over Shen Ning.

Xiao Junhe almost subconsciously protected Shen Ning in his arms, and the teacup fell into Xiao Junhe's hand.

The cousin was dodged by Xiao Junhe and fell to the ground.

"Ouch! Yuxia, why are you so careless?" The aunt quickly excused her daughter. "Brother, Yuxia is still young, and her work is unstable..."

Shen Bozhong frowned and glanced at his sister, how could he not see through her little thoughts.

Before Xiao Junhe and Shen Ning came, she came to talk to her about the concubine.

He also said that only by leaving his own family could he ensure that Shen Ning would not be bullied in the palace.

"Go down." Shen Bozhong said in a deep voice.

Chuntao is also a little angry and can be careless in serving tea.

He quickly went to get new tea and delivered it to his young lady and the prince.

"Xiao Junhe..." Shen Ning looked at the back of Xiao Junhe's hand distressedly, it was red.

"It's okay, my husband is thick-skinned and thick-skinned..." Seeing that Shen Ning felt sorry for him, Xiao Junhe raised his lips with great satisfaction.

It seems that the tea was not poured out in vain.

"The skin is rough but the flesh is thick..." Shen Ning felt very distressed.

Fortunately, Xiao Junhe has been practicing martial arts and swordplay all year round, so his hands are indeed more tolerant.

If this was applied to Shen Ning's tender skin, it would really cause blisters.

Shen Bozhong glanced at Xiao Junhe deeply.

Subconscious behavior is never a disguise.

This kid protected Shen Ning immediately...

Hopefully, he is a person worthy of trust.

"Brother-in-law, I'm sorry." Du Yuxia's eyes were red, and I stepped forward to hold Xiao Junhe's hand with pity. "It's red, I'm sorry."

Xiao Junhe frowned and subconsciously withdrew his hand.

If it weren't for the fact that the other person was Shen Ning's relative on the first day he came back, he would have gotten angry.

Shen Ning was also stunned for a moment, and then she realized that Yuxia did it on purpose.

Her cousin has been very competitive since she was a child and wants to be better than her in everything.

But she is not as good as her in every aspect.

In the previous life, the Shen family was implicated and the nine clans were implicated. Du Yuxia was the first person to go to curry favor with Liu Wanying, betray the Shen family, claim that she was killing relatives out of justice, and fabricated false evidence to frame the Shen family.

It was she who had been accusing Shen Ning of killing everyone.

However, Du Yuxia's fate was very miserable. How could Liu Wanying and Xiao Chengyin survive?

Even if she became a traitor, she still would not escape the fate of being killed.

Frowning her eyebrows, Shen Ning only felt that Du Yuxia was pathetic.

In this life, she was happily married to Xiao Junhe, and she could see Du Yuxia's little thoughts.

Shen Ning knew about the selection of the concubine on the third day of entry, and naturally Du Yuxia also knew about it.

She... wants to be a husband with her.

Her mood suddenly deteriorated, and Shen Ning lowered her eyes and looked unhappy.

Xiao Junhe keenly noticed that Shen Ning's mood was not right, and reached out to hold Shen Ning's fingers. "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Shen Ning shook her head, took the tea from Chuntao and put it in Xiao Junhe's hand.

Xiao Junhe was also afraid of wasting time, so he served tea to Shen Bozhong first.

"May the prince be kind to my Ning'er." Shen Bozhong said earnestly.

Shen Ning suddenly felt like crying.

In her previous life...she caused misery to the Shen family.

Before her father was killed, he was comforting her, saying that Ning'er was not afraid, not afraid.

But it's obviously her fault.

So many people in the Shen family and side branches were all blaming her.

The sound of reproach is like a call from hell.

But only Shen Bozhong comforted Shen Ning until his death, telling her not to be afraid.

Death is not the end, but the beginning.

They just chose the wrong person and were on the wrong team.

Accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. On the day he entered the court, Shen Bozhong had already foreseen many endings.

Only, I never thought that I would have a good death.

Even if he himself does not get a good death, Shen Bozhong still hopes that Shen Ning can have a good ending.

As long as Xiao Junhe is able to protect Shen Ning, that's fine.

"Prime Minister, don't worry, Xiao Junhe will never let Ning'er down in this life." Xiao Junhe's voice was deep and firm.

Shen Bozhong was very satisfied with Xiao Junhe. After all, he was a man who fought on the battlefield to protect his family and country, unlike those pampered princes.

Shen Bozhong did value Xiao Junhe, but it was just the rumors that spread some time ago that ruined Xiao Junhe's reputation.

Fortunately, Shen Ning was still willing to believe Xiao Junhe and chose to marry him.

In fact, Shen Bozhong was also very surprised. Ever since he decided to marry Xiao Junhe, his daughter... seemed to have changed into a different person.
