Chapter 234: It's easy to break through the rigidity, but the softness is undefeated
These words were too abrupt, which surprised Shen Ning. Although they were royal relatives, they were still a generation apart. To put it simply, it was just a doctor-patient relationship.
However, the eldest princess insisted on asking, "Xiang Shen was once a guest of King Shou, and Concubine Yi was brought to the palace by him. To King Jin, this is an insult to his mother, and you are the daughter of an enemy. Can you really fall in love with each other?"
Shen Ning thought for a while, maybe the eldest princess wanted to have a heart-to-heart relationship with her and was insinuating her relationship with her consort Huo Tingyuan?
After all, after living two lives, how could she not see that the eldest princess was trapped in love and used her extravagance to cover up her love for Huo Tingyuan, but no matter what she did, Huo Tingyuan didn't care at all.
"Eldest Princess, I get a headache when I think about some things too much, and my heart aches when I think about them. It is rare to be confused in life, so there is no need to worry too much."
What he said was like stabbing the eldest princess in the body.
She was born into a royal family, bright and beautiful, and dazzling with pride. She has never bowed her head to anyone. She has been strong all her life and has been scarred, and her family has been ruined and she has become a resentful woman.
In fact, Shen Ning didn't know why she told herself. It was probably because she was feeling too bitter and couldn't find anyone to talk to, so her feelings broke down.
Shen Ning smiled and reassured, "It's easy to be tough but easy to break, kindness and tenderness are undefeated, and there is no shame in bowing down to life."
Too strong is easy to break, but kindness and softness are undefeated?
The eldest princess was stunned, "You came here like this too?"
"That's right, otherwise I would have died a long time ago." She and Xiao Weijing had too many bad things and had long been the talk of the town. Shen Ning was not afraid of embarrassment, "I'll tell you the truth, Princess Jin, I had quarrels, fights and even kidnappings." Knife, for a while, I wanted to kill each other, but later on, after experiencing many things, our tempers were not so stubborn anymore.
What will happen in the future, who knows?
I have money now and can do what I like. Men are just the icing on the cake. If one day I can’t live anymore, it doesn’t matter if I divorce you at any time.”
The eldest princess saw it and said, "I envy you, you can afford to take things and put them down, and live a free and unrestrained life."
"It has to be. Whoever I love the most is myself."
The eldest princess had an epiphany, "From today on, I must also love myself well."
Even though she was a generation behind her, Princess Jin saw things more clearly than she did, and was able to bend and stretch to make the most of a dead situation. On the contrary, she had lived in vain for several years and is still trapped.
After coming out of the princess's house, Shen Ning went to see Li Zhenzhu. The young prince's jaundice had subsided and he was named Ke, Xiao Ke by the emperor.
Xiao Ke was about to be full moon, and Li Zhenzhen didn't like to deal with his sister-in-law, so he thought of having a low-key full moon party. Unexpectedly, the emperor sent an oral order that the young prince's full moon party would be organized by the palace.
This was what the Queen Mother said, and it was held according to the standards of a family banquet. It not only allowed for reunions with children and grandchildren, but also made up for the regrets of a birthday banquet.
"Sister-in-law Jiu, why do I think it's the Queen Mother who wants to see you, so she's looking for an excuse?"
Shen Ning didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "You don't want to go to the palace to hold a full moon banquet, so you are thinking wildly, right? If the Queen Mother wants to see me, just send someone to give me an edict. As for the twists and turns."
Li Zhuzhen really didn't want to, "There are too many rules in the palace, and I have to think twice about even saying something. I want to go back to Southwest every day."
Shen Ning smiled and said, "How can it be so easy for a royal daughter-in-law? When you marry the Prince of Dian, you should have thought about your future life."
"That's not true, it's really annoying." Li Zhuzhen complained to her, "The queen made arrangements for the prince to marry him, saying that he has been stationed in the bitter cold place all year round, and she can choose a few from the nobles of the capital who can take care of him carefully. He can also help the royal family maintain the purity and nobility of the royal bloodline."
She looked angrily, "She is really shameless. She is obviously belittling my low status. She can't even control her son's crotch, and she actually extended her hand into the prince's backyard."
Shen Ning was shocked, "Choose a concubine for the King of Dian?"
That's not true. Li Zhuzhu was so angry, "The queen wanted to win over the prince for the prince, so she pushed her niece out with ulterior motives."
I really didn’t expect that the queen, mother and son were so obsessed with military power, and they were planning one plan after another. Did they really think that others were fools?
The queen was eager for success, but Xiao Yehong had a low emotional intelligence and had always been very honest with Li Zhenzhu. However, the emperor did not hide anything from his wife in private.
This time, Li Zhenzhen was completely blown away. The queen shot herself in the foot and completely blocked Xiao Yehong's attempts to win over her. No one else needed to disrupt or stop her.
This is the consequence of underestimating the enemy. From now on, Li Zhenzhu will be nothing more than a barbarian son and daughter. Without cultivation, he will not be able to stand on the stage.
She was good at palace fighting but not sensitive enough to politics. Even the emperor wanted to use alliances to maintain stability in the southwest. However, she thought that when a woman marries and follows the other's lead, her husband's family will be able to treat her as her own child.
Little did they know how tough the women of the Southwest are.
Shen Ning probed, "Your prince agreed?"
"How dare he!" Li Zhuzhen's charming face was filled with anger. "When he married me, he swore a vicious oath. He could only have me as a woman in this life. If he disobeyed me, he would be struck by thunder and die."
Xiao Yehong not only refused decisively, but also asked the emperor to request an edict. In order to stabilize the situation in the southwest, he did not intend to have a concubine.
Even if I want to accept it in the future, I will choose from the four major chieftain families in the southwest.
The emperor was very satisfied and pleased with his ambition, and he quickly agreed, completely rejecting the queen's intention.
Shen Ning frowned slightly as he listened. He remembered that the King of Dian had a concubine, and indeed he married the Queen's natal niece. After the marriage, he went to the southwest fiefdom, but it seemed that he died of illness soon.
Now there is a deviation in the plot. It should be the butterfly effect caused by Li Zhenzhen seeing through the Queen's conspiracy and brainwashing the Dian King.
It can only be said that cleverness leads to mistakes. As long as Li Zhenzhen and the protagonist group do not deal with each other, Xiao Yehong, the doting wife maniac, will not be able to side with Xiao Junjun.
A maniac who dotes on his wife?
Shen Ning was very imaginative. The Southwest was famous for its poison, and polygamy was rare. However, Li Zhenzhu was so bold that he dared to poison the queen, and she was also poisoned by Xiao Yehong.
This is just a guess, she wouldn't be stupid enough to ask.
With this layer of protection, I don’t have to worry about Xiao Yehong’s belt being untied by another woman wherever he goes.
To be honest, she really wanted to ask Li Zhuzhu for a share, and then she would choke Xiao Weijing to death.
It was already afternoon when she returned to Xuanhu Pavilion. Shen Ning went to the backyard to find the emperor's uncle and explained to him about Princess Minyun's surgery.
Xiao Yunqi was not only considerate but also considerate, "I will accompany you on the day of the operation."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Children are the darlings of their parents, especially those with a high position like the eldest princess. If unforeseen risks really arise, a contract will not work. The emperor's uncle's company can only prevent accidents.
The emperor's uncle was not an outsider, so Shen Ning got straight to the point and asked, "Imperial uncle, I heard that the eldest princess and the prince-in-law had a big quarrel some time ago, and today I dismissed all the people in the house. I saw that she was very depressed and already suffering from depression. , which is extremely detrimental to her condition."
In fact, this is not a secret, but now the eldest princess and the Huo family are incompatible with each other, and the public does not dare to discuss her old affairs.
Wen Yi fell in love with Huo Tingyuan at first sight, and she did not hesitate to ask the late emperor for a decree to grant them a marriage, thus tearing the lovers apart.
The other party did not dare to offend the royal family and hurriedly married off his daughter to another place without even leaving Huo Tingyuan a chance to say goodbye.
After their marriage, Wen Yi and Huo Tingyuan lived a life of chaos. It was not until the birth of Princess Minyun that the gap between the couple was resolved, and they lived a life of chaos.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Later, King Shou's rebellion occurred, and the couple turned against each other. Especially when Wen Yi was named the eldest princess by the new emperor, the relationship between the two completely broke down.
In the end, Xiao Tingyuan moved out of the princess mansion, and the eldest princess faced three thousand heads.
Shen Ning frowned. Although she had little contact with the eldest princess and was domineering and arrogant, she dared to love and hate. She had an upright personality and loved Xiao Ting to the core. How could she betray him?
Xiao Yunqi's eyes were calm, and a helpless smile emerged from the corner of his mouth.
