After the alliance matters were dealt with, Jiang Qiulu had one of the few breaks.
On this day, Jiang Qiulu was practicing swordsmanship with Jiang Donglin in the backyard.
Now Jiang Qiulu's swordsmanship has reached the level of proficiency.
"Brother Imperial, your swordsmanship has now reached the level of a master."
"I have to say that your talent is indeed quite rare." Jiang Donglin commented.
Jiang Qiulu smiled and then took back the Emperor's Sword.
"I feel that this is the strongest level that can be achieved."
"If you want to make further progress, you have to rely on the accumulation of time." Jiang Qiulu said after taking a sip of tea.
"Brother Emperor, in fact, there is no strongest state in kung fu."
"With time of experience and understanding, it will become stronger and stronger." Jiang Donglin said.
At this moment, Li Mingzhi came over.
"Your Majesty, Ambassador Chen Zhenfu wants to see you." Li Mingzhi said.
"Please!"
Afterwards, Chen Fei came to the backyard and saluted Jiang Qiulu.
"Chief Minister Chen Zhen, you are here." Jiang Qiulu greeted.
Chen Feifei bowed and then spoke slowly.
"Your Majesty, there is news from the royal guards guarding the palace gate."
"It is said that there is a woman waiting outside the door and wants to see the princess." Chen Fei said.
"Woman? Who is she?" Jiang Qiulu asked.
"It's not clear. This woman doesn't have a given name."
"It is said that the princess knew who she was after seeing her."
"And, she also said..."
"What else can you say?" Jiang Qiulu asked.
"She said she was once a member of the royal family!"
Chen Fei's words were as powerful as a bolt from the blue.
The former member of the royal family is now a woman, and she wants to meet Jiang Xiawei.
Who else could it be besides Jiang Xiyao, the eldest princess of the previous dynasty?
"Is it the eldest princess?!"
Jiang Qiulu and Jiang Donglin looked at each other, and then suddenly said in unison.
"Quickly, please invite the eldest princess into the palace!" Jiang Qiulu urged immediately, not daring to show any signs of neglect.
In terms of seniority, the eldest princess Jiang Xiyao is her aunt.
Jiang Xiawei also said that the eldest princess did not want to return to the palace.
"The eldest princess may have encountered some big trouble when she suddenly returned to Beijing."
On the road, Jiang Qiulu and his party were quickly rushing to the palace gate.
"Brother, you may just come to visit the princess. Brother, you don't have to worry so much." Jiang Donglin said.
"Let's go and take a look first." Jiang Qiulu said.
On the way, Jiang Qiulu asked Jiang Donglin to go first, and then went to ask Jiang Xiawei to come with him.
The palace door slowly opened.
Jiang Donglin looked closely and saw a woman in a simple long skirt standing there quietly.
This woman is a little thin, and her face has some traces of time.
But it is not difficult to see that this woman was definitely a beauty when she was young.
"aunt."
Jiang Donglin did not call Jiang Xiyao the eldest princess, but aunt.
The word "aunt" evoked many memories of Jiang Xiyao.
"Are you... Donglin?"
Jiang Xiyao stared at Jiang Donglin for a long time before she recognized Jiang Donglin.
"Yes, it's me." Jiang Donglin said.
"Auntie, please come in quickly, let's go find the emperor brother."
In order not to attract other people's attention, Jiang Donglin brought Jiang Xiyao into the palace.
After a while, two figures appeared not far away, and they were Jiang Qiulu and Jiang Xiawei.
"Qiu Lu... no, Your Majesty."
Seeing Jiang Qiulu's face, Jiang Xiyao also recognized Jiang Qiulu.
But after seeing the dragon robe on Jiang Qiulu, Jiang Xiyao immediately changed her mind.
At the same time, the ceremony of kneeling and worshiping is also performed.
"Aunt, no!" Jiang Qiulu, with quick eyes and quick hands, helped Jiang Xiyao.
In Jiang Qiulu's understanding, Jiang Xiyao is an elder. How can an elder salute a younger person?
"Mother, why are you here?" Jiang Xiawei asked.
"You damn girl!"
Jiang Xiyao suddenly changed her momentum, cursed angrily, and at the same time grabbed Jiang Xiawei's ear.
"It's been almost a year since I entered the palace, and I haven't even mentioned going to Jinsha City to see my mother."
"I see that you have lived a good life with your imperial brother, so you have forgotten about me as a mother, right?"
Jiang Xiawei repeatedly cried out in pain and waved her little hands in the air.
Seeing such a huge contrast between Jiang Xiyao and Jiang Xiyao, brothers Jiang Qiulu and Jiang Donglin couldn't help but open their mouths.
She looked weak just now, but now she seems to have turned into a fierce woman.
"It seems that our Jiang family has similar tempers."
"Everyone except me has a bad temper." Jiang Qiulu touched his nose and muttered at the same time.
From King Jiang Beiming of Tianqi to Jiang Donglin, the commander of the imperial guards, and Jiang Chunxiao, the general of Zhenguan, they all belong to the tinderbox.
Jiang Xiawei's temper is relatively controlled, but she is also much more irritable than ordinary women.
Now the eldest princess Jiang Xiyao is also like this.
"Brother Imperial, your temper isn't much better either." Jiang Donglin said from the side.
"Really? I still think I'm quite gentle." Jiang Qiulu said with a smile.
Seeing such a trustworthy Jiang Qiulu, Jiang Donglin didn't want to talk to him for a moment.
"Okay, okay, aunt, please be merciful."
Seeing Jiang Xiyao who was still scolding Jiang Xiawei, Jiang Qiulu and Jiang Donglin immediately stepped forward to dissuade her.
Under the dissuasion of the two brothers, Jiang Xiyao finally let go.
"This damn girl, I'm so angry."
"Auntie, please calm down."
"Xia Wei always misses you." Jiang Qiulu comforted her.
Jiang Xiawei finally escaped from Jiang Xiyao's clutches and gently rubbed her ears. The expression on her face was so aggrieved that she almost cried.
"Auntie, let's talk somewhere else." Jiang Donglin said.
Afterwards, several people came to Tai Chi Hall.
"Your Majesty, don't you live in Weiyang Palace?" Jiang Xiyao asked.
"Oh, don't hide it from my aunt."
"There are a lot of things in the palace, so I simply moved my room to Tai Chi Hall to facilitate the handling of government affairs." Jiang Qiulu said.
Then, Jiang Qiulu turned to look at Jiang Donglin.
"Dong Lin, go and invite the emperor's uncle."
Seeing Jiang Donglin's leaving figure, Jiang Xiyao was a little confused.
"Your Majesty, Dong Lin is your personal bodyguard now?" Jiang Xiyao asked.
"yes."
"Dong Lin is not only my personal bodyguard, but also the commander of the imperial bodyguards and the minister of health in charge of Luanyi." Jiang Qiulu said.
After hearing this, Jiang Xiyao turned around and looked at Jiang Xiawei.
"Look at others, then look at you."
"I know how to cause trouble all day long."
There was another round of scolding, and Jiang Xiawei kept listening with her head hanging down.
"It's nothing, aunt."
"Xia Wei is now helping me manage the royal family's property," Jiang Qiulu said. After a while, Jiang Donglin and King Jiang arrived.
"When did you come?" King Jiang asked.
"Not long after we arrived, Brother Wang is still as majestic as before."
