"Where have you two been?"
Recently, Nan Guozhen and Jiang Hui frequently went out to play in the city, which made the Crown Princess very worried and unhappy. Today, Nan Guozhen and Jiang Hui were returning home from outside the city. As soon as they stepped through the door, they saw the Crown Princess sitting and waiting for them.
Jiang Hui and Nan Guozhen saw Dingxiang, Yuzhu, Shundao, and Shunyi kneeling one by one. They knew that their sneaking out of the city had been exposed, and they were so scared that they lowered their heads and stood obediently.
"Where were you two last night?" the Crown Princess asked again.
"We, of course we are at the old general Yuwen's residence." Nan Guozhen replied.
"Zhen'er, you would never lie to the Queen Mother, why did you lie today?" The Queen Mother's face turned serious at this time!
"Zhen'er, I didn't... didn't lie!" Nan Guo Zhen replied timidly.
The imperial concubine looked at Jiang Hui who lowered her head and said nothing, and said, "Hui'er, you bid farewell to Aijia truthfully. Where were you yesterday?"
Jiang Hui said truthfully: "We went out of the city last night."
The Crown Princess sighed deeply and said: "You just don't let the Ai family worry. Now that the overall situation is not stable, we can't leave the city. Even if we go out of the city, we have to bring guards with us. Do you know how dangerous it is for you to go out of the city alone?"
"Grandma Huang, Zhen'er knows that she was wrong, and Zhen'er is willing to accept the punishment."
"Zhen'er, you have grown up. Grandma Huang should have returned to power and taken care of her old age. But Grandma Huang is worried. If the great hatred is not over and the 'Great Southern Kingdom' is not restored, Grandma Huang will be ashamed of your Grandpa Wang." .So Grandma Huang won’t punish you, not to mention that you are now the king of Youzhou, so what’s the point of being punished?”
"Grandma Huang, Zhen'er has realized his mistake, he really has realized his mistake!" Nan Guozhen was deeply aware of his mistake. How could he relax and play without avenging his revenge?
Cough cough cough…
The Crown Princess coughed a few times from exhaustion.
Only then did Nan Guozhen realize that his imperial grandmother had lost a lot of weight over the years due to working on government affairs. Nan Guozhen knelt down and rushed to the Crown Princess, patting her on the back.
"Grandma Huang, how come your cough hasn't healed yet? How can you be the imperial physician of Youzhou Prefecture?" Nanguo Zhen said angrily.
"Zhen'er, Grandma Huang is getting old, and her health is certainly getting worse every year. Grandma Huang is not afraid of death, she just hopes to see the day when the Great Southern Kingdom is restored in her lifetime."
"Don't worry, Grandma Huang, Zhen'er will definitely regain the 'Great Southern Kingdom'." Nanguo Zhen swore to the sky.
"Grandma Huang believes that such a day will come."
The Crown Princess looked up at Nan Guozhen and suddenly felt that time flies so fast. The grandson who only cried and cried has grown so big.
"Zhen'er, you've grown so tall, it's time for you to become a concubine!" the Crown Princess suddenly said.
Speaking of Concubine Nan Guo Zhenli, she became a little shy: "Grandma Huang, my grandson still thinks it's good to be alone!"
"How can I live alone? Grandma Huang still wants to hold her grandson? Let's just decide to choose the concubine tomorrow."
Choosing a concubine?
"Grandma Huang, hasn't it been decided that my grandson's princess will be Hui'er?" Nan Guozhen said.
"This...but you can't just have one concubine?"
"Zhen'er, now I just want to make Hui'er the princess."
"This... Hui'er, are you willing to serve Zhen'er all your life?" The Crown Princess suddenly asked Jiang Hui, emphasizing the word 'life' when asking. She was asking Jiang Hui whether Nan Guozhen would be in the future. No matter what situation you are in, you will never give up?
I……
Jiang Hui was hesitant, but Nan Guozhen looked anxious and kept winking at Jiang Hui, telling Jiang Hui to stop being stupid and agree quickly.
After hesitating for a long time, Jiang Huicai said: "I do."
Nan Guozhen was so happy that Jiang Hui agreed.
"Since Hui'er is willing and you also like it, let's announce the concubine tomorrow!"
Jiang Hui and Nan Guozhen immediately knelt down to thank the Crown Princess. The Crown Princess showed a slight smile and waved her hands to ask Jiang Hui, Ding Xiang, Yu Zhu, Shun Dao, Shunyi and others to leave, leaving only Nan Guozhen alone. Discuss things.
Sure enough, Jiang Hui and others withdrew, and the Crown Princess solemnly asked Nan Guozhen if she really wanted to make Jiang Hui her concubine. Nan Guo Zhen said dullly: "Grandma Huang, didn't you just allow Zhen'er to marry Hui'er? Why did you change your mind again?"
That year when Jiang Hui passed on the jade seal to the Crown Princess, she didn't find that the base of the treasure box containing the jade seal had the word "fake" scratched on it with her fingernails. This "fake" was deliberately left by Prime Minister Jiang when he entrusted it to her before his death. of.
The attentive Crown Princess noticed it, so she gave the order to put Jiang Hui and the Thirteenth Young Master into a cell. Ten years have passed and the Crown Princess still can't understand what Prime Minister Jiang wanted to tell her when he left the word 'fake'.
At that time, the Crown Princess thought "fake" meant that the jade seal was fake, but after some verification, the seal was genuine, so the Crown Princess had to doubt Jiang Hui's life experience. The Crown Princess specially sent Zixia guards to secretly investigate Jiang Hui's life experience, and the result was that Jiang Hui was indeed Prime Minister Jiang's daughter.
However, the Crown Princess still had some doubts about Jiang Hui's life experience, so she did not like Nanguo Zhen's appointment of Jiang Hui as his concubine, but the word "fake" alone could not explain anything, so the Crown Princess made this Something is hidden!
The imperial concubine sighed helplessly and said: "That's all, since you like the imperial concubine and you can't stop her, if you don't like her anymore in the future, you can make another female concubine!"
"Grandma Huang, what's wrong with you? Don't you also like Jiang Hui?" Nan Guozhen was depressed that Grandma Huang today was too abnormal.
"Hui'er is a good girl. Of course Grandma Huang likes her." After saying this, the empress dowager sighed silently to herself, I hope my guess is wrong!
This morning, all the ministers in the court hall of Nan Guozhen announced that they would make Jiang Hui, the daughter of Prime Minister Jiang, the princess.
The ministers in the court showed no surprise or suspicion towards the princess. All the ministers congratulated together: Congratulations to the King of Youzhou. The King of Youzhou and his beautiful princess are a match made in heaven!

"Miss, miss, do you think the phoenix crown harem on the left hand is more beautiful, or the phoenix crown harem on the right hand?" Yuzhu asked.
"Well, the Fengguanxiapei bead curtain on the left is longer than the one on the right, so I want the Fengguanxiapei on the left!"
"Miss, which of these two wedding robes do you like?" Ding Xiang ordered her servants to bring two wedding robes for Jiang Hui to choose from.
Jiang Hui looked at the 'Magpie Climbing the Bridge' on the left, and then at the 'Peony Attracting the Phoenix' on the right, wondering which one to choose?
"I like these two wedding robes, can I have both?"
"This...this marriage ceremony is only once. You can't wear two wedding robes at the same time. Miss, you'd better pick one!" Ding Xiang said a little embarrassed.
"That's it! Then I want the 'Peony to Attract the Phoenix' wedding robe!" Jiang Hui pointed to the 'Peony to Attract the Phoenix' wedding robe on the right.
"Okay! I will put it on for the young lady now. The young lady will definitely be the most beautiful bride."
"Dingxiang, that's wrong, that's wrong. The young lady will be the princess soon. Are we going to change our name to the princess?" Yuzhu changed.
"Yes, yes! I should change my name to Princess, but I can't change my name."
Jiang Hui couldn't help laughing when she saw how nervous Ding Xiang and Yu Zhu were. "Look at how nervous you two are. If you call me 'Miss' or 'Princess' in your own home, I won't punish you."
Dingxiang and Yuzhu were so moved that they almost shed tears. It was a blessing to have such a good master who treated them like sisters.
