"The Crown Princess is right in what she said. Instead of cowering in a ball and waiting for the Emperor to attack, we might as well take advantage of the jade seal in hand and let the young master succeed to the throne and call on the princes from all over the world to join forces to fight against the Emperor. This way there is still a chance. " Jiang Shangshu took the opportunity to add.
"Yes! What Jiang Shangshu said makes sense, but ascending the throne is a major event. Let Aijia think about it again. Today's court meeting will end here! Retreat from the court!" the Crown Princess ordered.
When the ministers heard the imperial concubine's order to retreat, they bowed and dispersed. Liu Taiwei felt that Jiang Shangshu's strategy was too risky and he didn't agree with it, but he didn't think of a better way, so he had to hesitate.
When everyone retreated, only Nan Guozhen and the Crown Princess were left in the court hall. Nanguo Zhencai said, "Grandma Huang, Zhen'er wants to be the king of Youzhou."
The Crown Princess sighed first, and then asked, "Zhen'er, if you become the king of Youzhou, you will face more dangers. Then there will be no way out."
"Grandma Huang, isn't Zhen'er in danger now? You have to be careful about this and that when eating and sleeping. You can only stay in the house all day, and you can't even think about taking a breath outside the city." Nan Guo Zhen said with a look of grievance and suffering. Enough.
"Well, Grandma Huang knows that my Zhen'er has been very depressed these years and has to be on tenterhooks all day long. Let Grandma Huang think about it more carefully." The Crown Princess replied helplessly and lovingly.
Nan Guozhen nodded obediently and responded with a 'hmm'. As Nan Guozhen and the Crown Princess left the palace together, they saw Jiang Hui, Ding Xiang and Yu Zhu squatting outside the door.
"Little brother...oh, brother Zhen, have you withdrawn from the court?"
The moment Jiang Hui saw Nan Guozhen walking out of the court hall, she greeted him happily. When she saw the Crown Princess next to her glance at her, she suddenly said hello to the Crown Princess.
"Hui'er, why are you squatting at the door? You are the daughter of a dignified prime minister, so you can't act so recklessly."
The imperial concubine saw that Jiang Hui had been in the house for nearly a month and was still a crazy wild girl, so she couldn't help but scold her. After the imperial concubine had finished training Jiang Hui, she then trained Ding Xiang and Yuzhu. If you don't look at your master well, let him run around. If you continue to be loose and loose, you will be kicked out of the house.
When Ding Xiang and Yu Zhu heard that the Crown Princess was going to drive them out of the mansion, they knelt down in fear. She cried and begged, "Crown Princess, please have mercy. Don't drive me out of the house. I have no place to go!". Dingxiang and Yuzhu were both children from poor families, so poor that they had no rice to cook with. Later, they could only be sent to Youzhou Mansion by their parents to live as slaves for life.
"Crown Princess, it's all Hui'er's fault. It was Hui'er who wanted to come to the court. Please punish Hui'er if you want to be punished!" Hui'er also knelt down and begged to the Crown Princess.
"Grandma Huang, don't punish Hui'er. Hui'er saved Zhen'er."
The Crown Princess thought that she might have trained her too much and sighed, "Okay, I'll spare you this time. You all get up!"
Jiang Hui, Ding Xiang, and Yu Zhu became panicked, and stood obediently, pretending to listen humbly.
The Crown Princess thought to herself, "I really need to ask Aunt Shun to teach you the palace rules." After saying this, the Crown Princess turned to the Zixia guard who was following behind her and said, "Go and ask Aunt Shun to train these girls of the Ai family." ."
The Zixia guard responded with a 'yes' and quickly went to deliver the order.
Aunt Shun was a professional supervisor who trained new maids and male servants in the mansion. I heard that she was very strict, and those maids and male servants who were disobedient and unqualified were spanked until their bottoms were peeled off by her whip.
"Grandma Huang, don't punish Hui'er. Hui'er saved Zhen'er's life." Nan Guozhen pleaded urgently.
"Zhen'er, you just said you wanted to be the king of Youzhou in the palace, and now you are so soft-hearted and bending the law for personal gain? Besides, Grandma Huang didn't want to punish Hui'er, she just taught her palace rules and etiquette. This is also for the sake of her future. "The imperial concubine looked at Nan Guozhen and asked suddenly.
"Brother Zhen'er, please stop interceding for Hui'er. The imperial concubine is right to punish her." Jiang Hui knew that Nan Guozhen had great ambitions and wanted to be the king of Youzhou, and to crusade against the emperor of Jiang to avenge him. If she could not become the king of Youzhou now, King, then your conscience will be uneasy.
"I... Zhen'er was wrong!" Nan Guozhen admitted his mistake and apologized to the Crown Princess.
The Crown Princess looked coldly at Ding Xiang and Yu Zhu, who were shrinking, and Jiang Hui, who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "Just know you are wrong!" After saying that, she turned around and returned to her bedroom.
…………
"Straighten your back and raise your buttocks..."
Aunt Shun was holding a soft whip and was teaching Jiang Huigong how to be a lady, and Dingxiang and Yuzhu how to be slaves.
"Wrong! Wrong!"
Ah, it hurts! Jiang Hui's butt was whipped by Aunt Shun. Aunt Shun asked Jiang Hui to walk with a book on her head. She should be dignified and elegant when walking, without making any noise, and the book should not fall to the ground. Jiang Hui, who was accustomed to jumping, had just started, when the book on her head fell to the ground and she was about to be whipped again.
Over there, Dingxiang and Yuzhu had to learn how to make tea. They were whipped for good posture.
Jiang Hui, Ding Xiang and Yuzhu's cries of pain, "Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, no, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,"" made Nan Guo Zhenxin panic. "A little higher, a little higher, but I still don't see..."
Aunt Shun was startled when she heard whispers outside the high wall. Worried that it might be an assassin, she left a few servants to protect Jiang Hui and immediately went to report to General Yan. As soon as General Yan heard that there was an assassin outside the high wall, he immediately flew over the high wall and saw that it was not an assassin outside the high wall, but Nan Guozhen stepping on Shunyi and Shundao's back to peek.
Jiang Hui, Ding Xiang, and Yu Zhu ran out of the gate without fear of death. They saw Nan Guozhen and his two little guards instead of assassins outside the high wall.
"Little master, why are you sneaking around here? Wei Chen almost thought you were an assassin. Fortunately, Wei Chen sheathed his sword quickly." General Yan asked.
The southern monster replied sheepishly, "I am worried about Jiang Hui..."
General Yan seemed to understand, and said, "It turns out that the little prince likes..." Before General Yan could finish speaking, Nan Guozhen stepped forward and covered General Yan's mouth, and said in a panic, "Hui'er is the daughter of Prime Minister Jiang. Prime Minister Jiang is a loyal minister of our Southern Kingdom. Hui'er also saved my prince's life, so of course I must protect Hui'er."
Jiang Hui looked confused and said, "But Hui'er is fine here, and she doesn't need brother Zhen'er's protection!"
Forehead! "But this prince just saw you being beaten by Aunt Shun."
"This slave is training Miss Hui'er under the orders of the Crown Princess." Aunt Shun explained hurriedly.
"This prince knows, but you hit him too hard!"
"Too heavy? I don't dare to hit Miss Hui hard." Aunt Shun replied with an aggrieved look.
"No? But just now I heard Hui'er screaming in severe pain. Hui'er, tell me, does your butt hurt?" Nan Guozhen asked.
What? Jiang Hui felt a little bit embarrassed.
"Speak quickly! Does your butt hurt?" Nanguo asked anxiously.
"I... it hurt a little when I was whipped just now, but it doesn't hurt anymore." Jiang Hui lowered her head and replied shyly.
"But I just heard you shouting very loudly?" Nan Guozhen still didn't believe it and asked Jiang Hui again.
Jiang Hui made a big face to Nan Guozhen mischievously and replied, "It doesn't hurt, it just doesn't hurt..."
Nan Guozhen felt relieved now, and loudly ordered, "Shunyi, let's go along the way!"
