Shi Shuning is still smart, she used her own "miscarriage" in exchange for Shen Xuan's pampering for a long time, during this time she used her identity as a "side concubine" to suppress Shen Xuan's concubines into obedience, and now they dare to be angry but dare not speak.

Some people say that Shi Shuning is 'there is no tiger in the mountains, and the monkey is called the king', but Shi Shuning doesn't care, some people want to say that the king doesn't have this opportunity and identity, since she has the opportunity, why not?

In short, the history books have been full of wind and water during these days, and the only bad thing is that the queen court said about her 'miscarriage' and ordered her to stay in the East Palace obediently to cultivate her body and not leave.

To put it nicely, it's 'good life cultivation', but it's ugly, but it's just house arrest.

The queen had already seen that Shi Shuning had some means, and she was very jealous, for fear that she would do something wrong and affect Shen Xuan's succession, but she happened to be upset when she looked at Shi Shuning, so she simply didn't do anything and directly ordered house arrest.

However, thanks to the queen's resoluteness, nothing major happened in the capital for a while, and Shi Qingqian was able to pass the past few months happily.

In the blink of an eye, it was the end of August.

Wu Zhu knelt on the ground and asked the sky, and after asking for a long time, he chose an auspicious day - the end of September.

In other words, there is less than a month to go, and the fifth princess is about to embark on her long road of harmony.

On this day, Shi Qingqian had just finished breakfast, and suddenly a little eunuch came to the palace, saying that the fifth princess invited her to the palace.

Shi Qingqian was confused, after all, because of this kissing matter, the fifth princess's temperament changed greatly, she became taciturn, and she didn't socialize with people all day long, she was always worried, but she couldn't find a chance to enter the palace to take a look, but she didn't want the fifth princess to send someone to invite her today.

didn't have time to make more plans, Shi Qingqian hurriedly changed his clothes, and then sat down and entered the palace.

The fifth princess was waiting for her in the house.

When Shi Qingqian arrived, the fifth princess was looking at the gift list in her hand with her head bored, and when she heard the report of the next person, her eyes lit up and asked Shi Qingqian to come in quickly.

"Sister! You're finally here......" Looking at the sisters who hadn't seen her for a long time, the fifth princess somehow turned her eyes red, and crystal tears kept swirling in her eyes.

"Fifth princess, what's wrong with you?" Shi Qingqian suddenly felt distressed.

She saw that the fifth princess had lost a lot of weight compared to years ago, although she was neatly dressed and gorgeous, she did not have the slightest bit of spirit, and she was like a puppet that had been drained of her spirit.

The fifth princess quietly reached out to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes, she shook her hand and dismissed the people in the house, then she took Shi Qingqian's hand and took her to sit in front of the table, "Sister, I'm going to drive me crazy these days...... Gift lists, music lists, dowry lists...... I have to check everything one by one, why...... Why don't I have a mother......"

Shi Qingqian sighed, he only hated that the queen was selfish and arrogant, and even the fifth princess had to prepare and check the dowry.

She hugged the fifth princess distressedly, stretched out her hand to gently stroke her back, and said softly: "Fifth princess, from today onwards, I will enter the palace every day to help you sort out and check, okay?" I always thought that you had someone around you to help with it, but I didn't expect you to come by yourself...... But it doesn't matter, I'll help you in the future, I'm idle anyway. ”

The fifth princess in her arms nodded slightly, and her movements were so weak that they were extremely distressing.

"Actually...... I don't want to get married," the fifth princess suddenly spoke, her voice was a little trembling and soft, Shi Qingqian could hear her sniffing, "I don't want to marry someone I don't love, I really want to think about it, sister, you can marry the person you love...... Why, why should I be a princess......"

This matter is really helpless.

Shi Qingqian didn't know where to comfort her, after all, she had no position to say anything, so she could only clumsily wipe away the tears of the fifth princess over and over again.

"I don't want to go that far! Such a wild place as Togo...... I—I'm so scared......"

The more the fifth princess spoke, the more she cried fiercely, Shi Qingqian could only sigh and said, "Fifth princess...... In fact, everyone has their own destiny, besides, there are people outside the world, there are heavens outside the sky, you haven't seen the outside world, maybe you will like it? And...... Tuoba Liangbi is not a disciple of the three religions and nine streams, you have seen it, and it can be regarded as a romantic and suave person...... Maybe you'll fall in love with him? ”

The fifth princess was silent for a moment before nodding with difficulty, "Actually, I have long accepted this reality, but I still remember what the nurse said when I was a child, Dongwu is full of nomads, what Beiji, Shouyang, Weicang, Jinqiu, even Dongwu, is also that wild group." When I think about it, I feel terrible......"

Hearing this, Shi Qingqian smiled slightly: "It turns out that the fifth princess is worried that Dongwu's people are rude and arrogant, and they will be wronged?" ”

The fifth princess blushed and nodded.

That's it!

Shi Qing said in his heart and patted her shoulder, "Then, the fifth princess thinks that when the good prince came to us as a hostage before, he was rude and arrogant?" ”

"No...... But who knows if he will be exposed in his own country? The fifth princess pouted.

"That's how much you're worried about." Shi Qingqian put his arm around the fifth princess's shoulders and said with a smile, "I think, what your nurse told you is also what she read from a book a long time ago, right?" Dongwu was indeed a nomadic before, but as early as a hundred years ago, there were already kings who enclosed land to build cities and build passes, and Dongwu people had begun to farm and do business, in fact, it was not much different from our Yu country. ”

"But...... The people of Donggo are all wheat-skinned......"

"Don't the fifth princess think it's not good-looking?" Shi Qingqian asked, "There are people with wheat skin, there are also people in Yuguo, and not everyone in Dongwu is wheat skinned, and there are also people whose eyes are light blue or gray, don't you think...... Is it like a gem? ”

Shi Qingqian's tone was soft, and he really made the fifth princess a little moved.

Shi Qingqian looked at her and nodded slowly twice, and then he was relieved. In her last life, she envied the blue-eyed foreigners, and in this life she met again, fortunately, she was usually too idle, and read a lot of national chronicles, as the saying goes, read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles, although she has not been outside, but she has also learned a lot.

It was the first time that the fifth princess really felt Shi Qingqian's talent, and she was extremely envious in her heart, and she pestered her to say a lot of things about Dongwu.

Her mood gradually stabilized, and she suddenly remembered something, and asked, "By the way, sister, do you know that Yu Guo has the etiquette of giving a maid to marry?" ”

"A bride?"
