General, Your Wife Is Requesting Your Return Home For Farming

The fate of the Great Zhou… Wasn’t this Princess Jingning’s style?

Did Emperor Jing Xuan actually believe it? Was there grass growing in his head?

Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but criticize. However, on second thought, if Emperor Jing Xuan hadn’t believed in this, Princess Jingning and the Empress wouldn’t have had so many years of good days.

Princess Hui An said regretfully, “Since my second sister-in-law had a miscarriage a while ago. Secondary Consort Qin’s child is especially precious.”

“Does this matter affect Princess Jingning?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.

“How can it affect her?” Princess Hui An didn’t understand.

That was true. Princess Jingning’s birth characters were good. If her birth characters did not change, the fate of the country on her shoulders would not change.

However, she could not let her guard down. If that new Grand Astronomer came and transferred the country’s luck to the eldest grandson, who could guarantee that Emperor Jing Xuan would not believe him?

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Who’s the Grand Astronomer?”

Princess Hui An replied, “He’s not an official from the capital. I heard that he was transferred from another province. I’m not very familiar with him. If you want to understand him, I can ask Third Brother.”

With that, she seemed to realize that she had been too proactive and added proudly, “Who asked you to be my sidekick?”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “Thank you, Princess.”

Princess Hui An raised her eyebrows proudly. She thought of something and said, “Ah, have I not told you why my sister-in-law’s family entered the palace?”

Su Xiaoxiao had more or less guessed something. If Qin Yanran was really pregnant with such a powerful male child, Consort Liang’s status would be in danger. They would definitely think of a way to consolidate Consort Liang’s status when they entered the palace.

Princess Hui An suddenly looked at Su Xiaoxiao. “Speaking of which, this matter has something to do with you.”

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “What has it got to do with me?”

Princess Hui An to leave someone hanging. “Madam Lu entered the palace today to ask the empress to decree a marriage. It’s that Third Miss Lu. Do you know who the husband of the Lu family is to be?”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “It can’t be Wei Ting.”

Princess Hui An curled her lips. “Of course not Brother Ting. Brother Ting is already married. It’s Su MO, your eldest cousin!”

Did Consort Liang and Duke Lu want to rope in the Marquis of Zhenbei? They even targeted Su MO?

With Su Mo’s age, he should have been betrothed long ago, but he had never met a suitable one.

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “How is this Miss Lu of the Lu family?”

Princess Hui An did not answer immediately. Instead, she asked, “What do you think of Guo Lingxi?”

Su Xiaoxiao was stunned. “The two of them are the same type?

Princess Hui An said, “No, she’s not as arrogant as Guo Lingxi.”

Guo Lingxi was no longer arrogant. After realizing how dire her situation was, she had already tucked her tail between her legs.

Princess Hui An finished speaking. “What I want to say is that Third Miss Lu and Guo Lingxi are about the same age.”

So she was talking about her looks… Su Xiaoxiao said, “She looks like a beauty.”

Guo Lingxi’s beauty could definitely be ranked in the top three in the capital. First was Bai Xihe, and second was Princess Hui An. Qin Yanran was also a great beauty. However, her reputation was not mainly because of her looks, but her background and talent.

“Can that kind of beauty be considered a beauty?” Princess Hui An snorted and glanced at Su Xiaoxiao. She muttered softly, “She’s far inferior to you.”

Duke Lu’s Estate really knew how to scheme. They actually wanted to rope in the Marquis of Zhenbei through a marriage. In this way, Consort Liang’s status would be stable, and Xiao Duye would have a solid backing on the path to the throne.

Su Xiaoxiao continued, “By the way, is the Empress Dowager around?” If she was, Su Xiaoxiao would go over and take a look.

Princess Hui An shook her head. “No. The last time the assassins wreaked havoc in the palace, it seemed to have frightened Imperial Grandmother. She went to the Dragon Temple to pray for blessings for the royal family. She won’t return for a while.”

It was good that she was not in the palace, so that she would not miss her.

Kunning Palace.

Duchess Lu was sitting at the bottom, talking to her daughter and the Empress. Princess Jingning sat silently at the side.

“Empress, I’ll leave this marriage to you,” Madam Lu said with a smile.

The Empress was a little hesitant.

Madam Lu smiled and said, “Su MO has made a great contribution and Emperor Jing Xuan’s kindness is vast in bestowing out a suitable marriage for him.” What a great emperor. She made it sound like Su MO could not get a wife.

The Empress said, “That’s true, but Su MO is not related to me. I can’t make the decision for him. Why don’t we invite Madam Su into the palace to ask for her opinion? If she agrees to this marriage, I’ll personally decide the marriage for the two of them.”

Duchess Lu was dumbfounded.

If the Su family could easily agree, why would she beg the Empress?

The Empress changed the topic. “His Majesty invited the envoy and important guests back to the capital today. The banquet is about to begin. Madam Lu and Miss Lu should go together.”

Madam Lu had hit a soft stumbling block in Kunning Palace. After bringing her daughter out, her expression darkened.

Consort Yu walked over. Seeing that there was no one around, she asked, “How is it?”

Duchess Lu sighed. “The Empress rejected it and refused to matchmake

Linglong and Su Mo. Your Highness, I’m not doing this to consolidate Consort

Liang’s status in the residence, but for His Highness!”

Who would believe her if she said it wasn’t for Consort Liang?

However, this matter was also beneficial to Xiao Duye, so Consort Yu was very willing to facilitate it.

Consort Yu frowned and said, “The Empress has no sons. In order to let Ye’er get close to her, I send Ye’er to the Kunning Palace from time to time and never get close to Ye’er in front of her. I even let Ye’er treat her as his mother; he respects her more than his biological mother. In the end, she actually didn’t even mention a marriage to Ye’er.”

Madam Lu said earnestly, “Your Highness, the Empress was not like this in the past. It was after Princess Jingning had that girl called Qin Su by her side that Princess Jingning first distanced herself from her brother, and right on the heels of that, the Empress’s attitude towards King Liang changed. In the long run, the Empress might change to supporting King An.”

King An was Xiao Zhonghua.

Consort Yu was at a loss.

At this moment, a young eunuch walked over and whispered in her ear.

She frowned slightly. “Is there such a thing?”

The young eunuch said, “Yes, I saw it with my own eyes.”

Concubine Yu waved her hand. “Got it. You can leave.”

Looking at the young eunuch who was retreating, Madam Lu asked, “Your

Highness, what happened?”

Concubine Yu said, “King Liang was embarrassed by someone at the entrance of the palace just now.”

Madam Lu said angrily, ‘Who is so bold to offend King Liang?

King Yu said calmly, “The strategist of the Western Jin, Zhuge Qing.”

Madam Lu said in disdain, “How dare a strategist be disrespectful to Prince

Liang?”

“He’s not an ordinary strategist. The Emperor of the Western Jin thinks highly of him. He’s a popular person in the Western Jin.”

As Consort Yu spoke, her eyes darted around and she smiled gently. “I heard that this Mr. Zhuge doesn’t seem to have any wives.”

Madam Lu opened her mouth. “Your Highness, you mean…”

Concubine Yu stroked Lu Linglong’s beautiful face. “Linglong is so good-looking.. Isn’t it a pity to only marry a fourth-grade general? I’ll go to His Majesty and ask for a decree to betroth Linglong to Zhuge Qing!”
