Chen Xiang followed Shen Liancheng's question and thought about the benefits of becoming a righteous relative to Prince Rong.

The identity of a daughter has been unspeakably precious since birth, and if she worships Prince Rong as her father-in-law, it will naturally be a higher level.

And in terms of the current situation, it is also beneficial and harmless. With this relationship between the Chen Guogong Mansion and Prince Rong's Mansion, maintaining a superficial peace is of great benefit to the court situation and the country.

However, Chen Xiang was still frowning, looking unhappy, lest Prince Rong be uneasy. Originally, he brought Shen Liancheng to the palace to give birth yesterday, and he felt that something was wrong.

"You don't have to worry too much." Shen Liancheng persuaded, "Prince Rong intends to get close to him, and he must not make any trouble for a while." Didn't my grandfather say that he inherited Mrs. Xiang's concept, hitting a snake and hitting seven inches, if it wasn't a fatal blow, he wouldn't shoot easily. ”

"That's fine." It has come to this point, and it is irreparable. Even if Chen Xiang was reluctant, he couldn't refuse. He sighed to himself, and he was relieved.

As soon as Shen Liancheng and Chen Xiang left Prince Rong's mansion, a slave found Prince Rong and told him, "Lord, the people of the Wang family were driven out of the city by the people of Chen Guogong's mansion early this morning, and they went not to Miaojiang, but to Mobei. ”

"Mobei?" Yu Wenyan was a little surprised.

"Yesterday, before the maiden gave birth, it was the Wang family who went." The slave stepped forward and presented a letter to Yu Wenyan, "This is a handwritten letter from the wife of the Wang family to the prince." ”

Shen Ruxiu said in the letter, "In three years, the Turks will migrate to Mobei and open up the land of Mobei and Yellow Sand." At that time, the women in Mobei may not be able to help the prince, but beg the prince, don't abandon it. ”

Yu Wenyan sneered, and said in his heart that he went to a poor place like Mobei with bad mountains and bad waters, and Liao was uninhabited, what else could he help him? That is, in three years, the Turks will migrate there, so what? Even if the Turks became his weapons, he would not need them.

Since yesterday, he has decided to do it differently, one that doesn't require bloodshed.

He crumpled the letter into a ball and threw it out. The slave will pick it up and take it away and destroy it.

Princess Que stood in the house, naturally not knowing what he was thinking and planning, but she didn't dare to ask, she could only worry secretly.

From this day on, the people of Kyoto were rumoring that Shen Liancheng gave birth to a noble daughter in Prince Rong's mansion. It was said that Prince Rong saved the lives of Shen Liancheng's mother and daughter, and then Chen Guogong's Mansion owed this kindness.

In the mansion of Marquis Wucheng, Xue Tao heard about it from his son Xue Rong early in the morning. In the white room, he gathered several robes and discussed together. They all didn't know what Prince Rong's move meant, which made them at a loss.

Finally, an elder said: "The prince didn't mean that, so let's hold it back, don't act rashly." Presumably, the prince has his own plans. We will contact you if necessary. ”

Two months later, Yu Wenyan seriously accepted Chen Xiang and Shen Liancheng's children as righteous daughters.

As soon as this incident came out, the government and the opposition were boiling.

A pot of boiling water, but after the passage of time, it returned to calm.

Since the Duke of Chen Guo's Mansion and Prince Rong's Mansion became righteous relatives, in the court, Prince Rong and Chen Xiang have handled government affairs, and they have also been in harmony a lot. Even when there are occasional differences of opinion, it can be reached through a peaceful debate.

The two major political forces no longer have selfish motives and no longer care about the gains and losses of each other's power, which has benefited a lot in the world of the Great Zhou.

Such benefits, maybe Shen Liancheng and Chen Xiang thought of some of them at the beginning, but the extent of the benefits still far exceeded their expectations.

Time flies, and this situation has been maintained year after year, and it has been nine years since the children went from babbling, to toddler, to school.

In nine years, Prince Rong's eloquence and integrity impressed Chen Xiang and Shen Liancheng. Many times, they even feel that it is a pity that he is not the one who rules the world. But while they were sincere to him, they could not lose their guard against him.

They will still be worried that one day, Prince Rong will change his current softness and become cold and bloodthirsty for that position.

Time is the best witness.

The children grew up day by day, and the Son of Heaven was also raised very well by Shen Liancheng, but the princess's health was deteriorating.

If the princess can't listen to the government in the court, how can the ten-year-old son of heaven be in charge alone? Shen Liancheng and Chen Xiang had to make plans early.

And when they discussed this matter in the house, their children Chen Wanqing and Li Ji's two sons, Li Kai and Li Xuanning, were playing happily in the courtyard.

Zhang's face was full of joy when he was accompanied by a slave and guarded from afar.

In the past nine years, she often took her two children to Chen Guogong's mansion to walk around, and as Chen Wanqing grew up, the three children naturally played well. And she, a mother, although she is a widow and has no in-laws to honor, she lives a leisurely life.

In nine years, Shen Liancheng arranged for her two sons to go to the school that only the children of the nobles in Kyoto could attend.

However, although the two sons were raised by her alone, they never favored one over the other, but the temperaments of the two were very different.

Li Kai, who was born by herself, is calm, humble, and gentle, while Li Xuanning, who was born by Shen Li'er, has a relatively indifferent personality and does not talk much. For this reason, Chen Wanqing prefers to play with fifteen-year-old Li Kai.

The three of them were talking and playing, but Li Xuaning was suddenly unhappy for some reason and ran to the side.

After all, Li Kai is a little older, and when he saw this, he had to go over and ask him what was wrong.

"Brother Kai, don't go." Chen Wanqing grabbed him, and said a little angrily, "A-Ning is often like this, he has a good time, but he is not happy when he always plays." Sometimes he can be upset for a long time when he says a joke. ”

Li Kai squatted down, pinched Chen Wanqing's nose, and said with a smile: "Then this time, Sister Wan'er is okay to coax your brother Aning?" Aning: He should be angry with you because of your words. ”

Chen Wanqing turned her back and was unhappy, "It's him who is stingy!" He can turn the red rope wrong, he is stupid, much more stupid than Brother Kai. ”

"Aning is playing for the first time." Li Kai then persuaded, "He never played before, where can he compare with me?" ”

As soon as Li Kai said this, Chen Wanqing reflected on her words to scold Li Xuaning a little heavier. She lowered her eyes and bit her lip, finally looked at Li Kai, and said, "Okay then!" I'm going to make amends to him. ”

"That's right." Li Kai smiled mildly and patted Chen Wanqing's head.

Chen Wanqing smiled, and then walked towards the Zen guest flower where Li Xuaning was standing.

Li Xuaning knew that Chen Wanqing was coming, so he reached out and pinched the petals of the white Zen flower, making it exude a richer fragrance.

However, Chen Wanqing took a closer look and found that he had pinched all the Zen guest flowers, so he couldn't help frowning and said loudly: "This flower is blooming well, what are you doing with it?" ”
