On the ninth day of the first lunar month, the frontier pass sent back a good news that the Great Xia Kingdom offered three cities to retreat and surrender, and Chu Yan personally "escorted" the seventh prince of the Great Xia Kingdom to Beijing to deliver the letter of surrender.
The emperor was very pleased, and rewarded the meritorious men with gold and silver.
This news made the whole country happy, and General Huaihua's mansion was also discussing this matter.
Su Rong struggled to sit up from the bed. In half a year, dysentery caused her to lose weight, her collarbone was clearly visible, and her whole body was in a skinny state. Even her face and cheeks were sunken. The bones and eye sockets are clearly visible, but there is lip balm on the mouth, which looks extremely creepy.
"What are they talking about? I seem to have heard them talking about that bitch Su Yan, right?" Su Rong's protruding eyes looked like they were about to pop out of their sockets.
Bai Shuang didn't dare to say: "Girl, you just saw better these few days, so don't worry too much."
"Say!" Su Rong shouted angrily, but she was full of anger.
Bai Shuang frowned in embarrassment: "Everyone in Beijing is saying that Prince Jing has made great contributions and is about to return to Beijing triumphantly. The fifth girl has a marriage contract with Prince Jing, so they must talk about it casually. Don't get angry. It’s important to take care of your body first.”
After hearing Bai Shuang's words, Su Rong lay back on the bed upright, as if she had lost all her strength, she stared at the top of the bed expressionlessly, only the hatred in her eyes never dissipated.
When the news reached Uncle Anjing's mansion, Su Yan was so happy that she even dropped the embroidery needles in her hands, and her face was full of smiles, which made Zhong Ning make a good joke of her.
Taking advantage of such a good opportunity, Princess Jinyang took the opportunity to enter the palace.
Hearing that the eldest princess of Jinyang was coming, the emperor's smile deepened a little, and he quickly stopped his government affairs, and asked someone to invite the eldest princess of Jinyang in.
When Princess Jinyang entered the door, she still wore the white veil on her head. After waiting for the emperor's order to serve all the people who left the imperial study, Princess Jinyang took off the veil. If anyone was present, they might be taken aback. On Princess Jinyang's supposedly stunning face, there is a pale flesh-colored scar from the root of the ear to the corner of the mouth, which destroys the beauty of the entire face. The reason why Princess Jinyang has been wearing a veil for so many years.
Back then, when she had only one breath left, the eldest lady took off the hairpin and ruined her appearance, but thanks to this hairpin, she woke up from the coma with pain, otherwise she would never have survived. The moment the prince's people found her. Things are funny, when Prince Yan's people found her, she was already lying in a mass grave with only one breath left.
Seeing the scar on Princess Jinyang's face, the emperor felt a trace of guilt and distress. Back then, the late emperor led the younger brothers and sisters out of the palace in modest clothes, and it was he who lost her because of his playfulness.
"I heard about the great victory ahead, and my sister is here to congratulate the emperor." The eldest princess of Jinyang gave a light salute, with a graceful figure.
"Haha!" Speaking of this matter, the emperor couldn't restrain the joy in his heart. He let the eldest princess of Jinyang sit down before saying: "I really didn't expect that the Great Xia Congress would surrender so easily this time, but speaking of This matter is also thanks to the young man recommended by the emperor to me, I don’t know if the emperor knows that this person is the heir of King Jing, named Chu Yan."
Jin Yang's eyebrows widened into a wide smile.
How could she not know? For the sake of her daughter's marriage, she inquired about everything about Chu Yan, every detail.
But even so, Princess Jinyang raised her eyebrows, pretending not to know: "Chu Yan? I seem to have a little impression, someone told me about it." Said, Princess Jinyang frowned for a while before thinking. Suddenly realized: "It's really a coincidence. Brother Huang should know that my sister's headache was cured by a little girl, right? That girl seems to be married to Prince Jing."
Princess Jinyang calmly changed the topic from Chu Yan to Su Yan.
Princess Jinyang's topic changed very naturally, the emperor did not doubt him, and said with a smile: "Well, I remember that Mu Ruhai mentioned this matter, she is Su Boli's daughter, and she is indeed engaged to Chu Yan .” The reason why the emperor remembered it was because of the incident when King Jing entered the palace.
"I heard that the imperial sister likes Miss Su very much, and will call her to talk to her every now and then."
Speaking of Su Yan, the emperor became a little curious. As far as he knows, Princess Yan liked Su Yan very much at the beginning, so she introduced Su Yan to Princess Jinyang. Now he is curious about what this woman named Su Yan can do to make Princess Yan The two people who have always been difficult to get along with Princess Jinyang treat her differently.
"It's strange to say that we seem to have a special fate. The child was also living in the south, but she was much better off than Chenmei. She was adopted by a couple, and Chenmei just... Forget it, say What are you doing with those old things?" Speaking of this, Princess Jinyang seemed to recall those unbearable years, and smiled: "What surprised me is that the child looks very similar to me, maybe this It must be fate in the dark."
Princess Jinyang's smile made the emperor even more guilty, and he said: "That girl can look similar to the imperial sister, and being able to win the imperial sister's fancy is also a blessing from her cultivation."
The eldest princess of Jinyang saw the emperor's expression in her eyes, and sighed when she felt that the heat was almost ready, and said: "My sister fell in love with that child, and my knees have been empty for so many years, so I want to accept her as a righteous daughter. I don't know if the emperor will agree."
It's not a big deal, the emperor didn't object: "It's just accepting a foster daughter, and it's not a big deal, the imperial sister can decide for herself."
The eldest princess of Jinyang just smiled, and her peach blossom eyes were full of joy: "Isn't this sister wanting to ask the emperor for a favor for that girl?"
"Oh?" The emperor glanced at Princess Jinyang, saw the clue from her uncontrollable smile, and couldn't help laughing: "You, you, I thought you really came to congratulate me. It's just a grace to have such an idea, you can just say no."
Being exposed by the emperor, not only did Princess Jinyang show no panic, but she smiled almost coquettishly at the emperor: "I don't know if I see it or not, brother Huang is a fool this time."
The emperor laughed amused by Princess Jinyang's girlish behavior: "Tell me, what kind of favor do you want from me?"
No one knows what kind of favor Princess Jinyang obtained for Su Yan, but only knew that Princess Jinyang walked lightly like a girl when she left the imperial study room, she could tell she was in a great mood.
