Chapter 369: Nine Princesses

Su Xiaoya sighed and said faintly: "This matter is a long story...... In fact, if it weren't for me, Xianggong wouldn't be like this now. ”

Lin Wan'er could vaguely guess something in her heart, and hurriedly said: "Sister Xiaoya, presumably my brother-in-law also really wants to detoxify you." He has good intentions, if you continue to think about it here, how can this be worthy of your brother-in-law's intentions? ”

Su Xiaoya didn't expect Lin Wan'er to think so much, and immediately laughed: "You can still say, I didn't expect that I just went out for a few months, and now even you have grown up a lot." ”

Lin Wan'er smiled and didn't speak, without Su Xiaoya and Bei Yexuan in Northern Xinjiang, she would naturally grow up if she stayed here alone.

The two of them were about to say a few more words, but who knew that Ah Jin was standing at the door and said softly: "Madam, the emperor has sent someone over, saying that he wants to invite you into the palace." ”

Su Xiaoya felt a little strange, she and Beiye Xuan had just returned to Northern Xinjiang, why did the emperor already know about it now? Could it be that the emperor has already let people look at this general's mansion?

"Sister Xiaoya, what is the emperor asking you to do now? Could it be that the emperor also knew about the poisoning of his brother-in-law and wanted you to go to the palace to discuss the detoxification of his brother-in-law? Lin Wan'er frowned and thought for a long time, but she still couldn't think of what the real purpose of the Northern Xinjiang Emperor was to let him go now.

Su Xiaoya couldn't think of what it was for, not to mention that the Emperor of Northern Xinjiang had always been on guard against himself and Beiye Xuan, why would he suddenly let himself enter the palace?

"Wan'er...... I still think this matter is a little strange, why don't you accompany me into the palace to have a look? Over here...... Let Ah Jin take care of Xianggong here, it should be fine. Su Xiaoya took Lin Wan'er's hand and said anxiously.

Lin Wan'er felt that Su Xiaoya's suggestion was good, so she nodded and agreed.

On the way to the palace, Su Xiaoya told Lin Wan'er about the matter between herself and Beiye Xuan: "...... Speaking of which, it's all my fault. ”

Lin Wan'er sighed in her heart, and hurriedly said, "How can this be? This Xiao Jinghuan is really hateful, the last time my brother-in-law and I went to Lingguo to save you back, he was ashamed to say that he was your sister's father-in-law, and also said that the two of you were going to get married...... What a shame! ”

Lin Wan's face turned red, she had lived for so long, and she had never seen such a brazen person as Xiao Jinghuan, how could she think that this Xiao Jinghuan was a good person?

"Okay, okay, don't think much about this matter, anyway, now that Xiao Jinghuan has been left out by us, if he is not afraid of being arrested by the emperor as a spy, he will not dare to come over easily." Su Xiaoya knew that Xiao Jinghuan already knew her whereabouts, and it must not be long before Xiao Jinghuan would try his best to enter the city to find him.

However, Su Xiaoya is not easy to mess with, when she enters the palace, she only needs to tell the Northern Xinjiang Emperor Xiao Jinghuan about it, and then hand over Xiao Jinghuan's portrait to the Northern Xinjiang Emperor, presumably the Northern Xinjiang Emperor will definitely let the city gate guards take this portrait and compare it one by one.

Lin Wan'er took Su Xiaoya's hand a little sadly, patted it lightly and said, "Sister Xiaoya, this time it's good that you and your brother-in-law are both auspicious people with their own natural appearance, otherwise I'm afraid that this Xiao Jinghuan will really succeed." ”

Su Xiaoya closed her mouth and stopped talking. As long as she thought of the poison on Kitano Xuan's body now, her heart felt a little uncomfortable.

When Su Xiaoya and Lin Wan'er entered the palace, it happened that the Northern Xinjiang Emperor was dealing with urgent matters with several ministers, and Su Xiaoya and Lin Wan'er couldn't stay at the door all the time waiting for the Northern Xinjiang Emperor to be free, so they went to the queen's Chuxiu Palace first, ready to talk to the queen.

"It's good to be back! Don't you know, General and Xiaoya came to the palace every day in those days, if they didn't feel ashamed, I'm afraid that Wan'er would have already hugged the thighs of the palace and started pleading! The queen looked at Lin Wan'er, whose face was flushed, and quipped,

Su Xiaoya didn't know that when these two people went to Ling Guo to save themselves, there were still so many obstacles, and hurriedly said with a smile: "It's still the queen mother and the emperor who are kind, otherwise the two of them will make such a fuss, I'm afraid that if they change to a hard-hearted one, they would have already thrown Xianggong and Wan'er out!" ”

The queen also thought so, but when she saw that Su Xiaoya was able to accept her love with the emperor of Northern Xinjiang, she felt a lot more comfortable: "By the way, the ninth princess has already returned, and she must be coming to the palace to say goodbye in a while." ”

Nine princesses?

Su Xiaoya subconsciously glanced at Lin Wan'er, she hadn't heard of any Nine Princesses, could it be that when she left, a little baby girl was born in the palace?

"The ninth princess is the child of the first emperor and concubine...... It's just that when the ninth princess was just born, a national teacher predicted that the nine princesses would definitely make the fortune of the country difficult, so the first emperor sent the nine princesses to the Buddhist hall outside, and ordinary people easily didn't know about it! Lin Wan'er pulled Su Xiaoya to explain in a whisper, and the queen sitting above pretended that she hadn't heard anything, and drank slowly with a teacup.

Su Xiaoya suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "It turned out that the ninth princess is back, but this is not a New Year's holiday, why is the princess back at this time?" ”

The queen put down the teacup in her hand and said with a smile: "It's not that the emperor thinks about his youngest sister, so he asked people to take the princess back." But for so many years, the princess has been practicing outside the palace, presumably the things predicted by the national teacher will not happen anymore, right? ”

Su Xiaoya didn't dare to take this kind of talk, how could she dare to say that this ninth princess could no longer affect the fortunes of the country? Although the words of the national teacher are all nonsense and feudal superstition, in this era of belief in heavenly fortune, she can't directly say that their ideas are wrong.

"The princess is back, and the emperor must be happy in his heart. The queen can also have one more person to talk to, right? Su Xiaoya couldn't find anything to say, so she laughed and joked with the palace.

Who knew that the queen only smiled slightly, and said faintly: "How can the princess have something to say to this palace!" ”

Su Xiaoya was shocked in her heart, and was about to ask what was going on, when she saw a proud woman walking in with the palace people: "Queen Mother, the ninth princess is here, and she wants to say hello to Queen Mother." ”

The queen was a little surprised: "Come in, come in, why did you think of asking for peace in the palace?" Didn't you just return to the palace, I'm afraid you haven't even been back to your own palace, right? ”

The ninth princess is not only arrogant in appearance, but also arrogant in temperament, Su Xiaoya looked up and down the appearance of this ninth princess in surprise, and felt strange in her heart.

If it is said that the Ninth Princess has really been practicing in the temple all along, how can she become so arrogant? Shouldn't it be like the monks and nuns in those temples, peaceful and humble?

It's just that Su Xiaoya couldn't ask this kind of thing in front of the ninth princess, so she had to figure it out a little in her heart, and then kept her smile and continued to sit down.

"Naturally, I haven't been back to the palace, if I go back to see it first, how can I have time to say hello to the queen? Speaking of which, I haven't seen the imperial sister-in-law for a long time. "Although the ninth princess is arrogant, she speaks very decently, and even knows how to read words and feelings, and knows how to say it to make the queen happy.

The queen nodded with satisfaction, pulled the ninth princess to sit down beside her, and said to Su Xiaoya and the others: "This is the ninth princess, presumably the age is about the same as you, but the ninth princess is not married yet." ”

Su Xiaoya's heart moved, why did the good queen suddenly say such a thing? Could it be that the queen still wants to let herself be a matchmaker for the ninth princess?

Hurriedly laughed twice, Su Xiaoya said without thinking about it: "The ninth princess is so good-looking, what is the queen mother anxious about?" What's more, the ninth princess has golden branches and jade leaves, how can she worry about not finding Ruyi Langjun! The queen is really worried! ”

The queen pursed her lips and smiled, looking relieved.

Su Xiaoya felt a little strange, why did the queen and the ninth princess seem to have a bad relationship? Could it be that the two of them are just trying to show them this way now?

"The imperial sister-in-law really thinks too much, I know what kind of person I want to marry, and I don't need the imperial sister-in-law to ask others to do it for me here. What's more, there is no one in this northern Xinjiang who can make me look at it differently! The ninth princess raised her chin and said proudly, a little proud.

Su Xiaoya shook her head, these nine princesses are really too arrogant, and they don't know why they haven't erased the arrogance on their bodies after practicing in the temple for so many years.

"I'm afraid it's because the Ninth Princess hasn't seen my brother-in-law. Although my brother-in-law is only an official in Northern Xinjiang now, my brother-in-law is both civil and military, and his appearance is not good, which is not comparable to ordinary people. Lin Wan'er couldn't get used to the arrogant appearance of this ninth princess, so she directly snorted coldly and retorted back.

The Ninth Princess raised her eyebrows, and then noticed Lin Wan'er, who had been sitting obediently on the side, and asked, "Your brother-in-law?" I don't know what your brother-in-law looks like and what he is good at? If he can really make this princess take a fancy to him, it will be his blessing. ”

The faces of the three people present changed greatly, Lin Wan'er subconsciously wanted to see Su Xiaoya's face, and the queen scolded: "What does it look like a dignified princess saying such a thing?!" Miss Wan'er said brother-in-law, doesn't the princess know that this adult already has a family? Could it be that you, as a princess, still want to be small?! ”

Lin Wan'er also thought so, when she said this, she really didn't expect this ninth princess to be so shameless, and she could say anything.

The three people present all looked at them with very dissatisfied eyes, but the ninth princess didn't care at all: "Why is the imperial sister-in-law so angry?" ”
