Sister Yu didn't expect her mother to ask herself this question, she was stunned for a moment, seeing that her mother seemed to be serious, because it was a major event in her family, and she didn't care about the girl's shyness, so she simply replied: "No."

Cheng Xiumei couldn't help asking curiously: "Why not? Don't you hate your prince's cousin?"

Sister Yu sorted it out in her mind, and explained: "My cousin is generous and gentle. How could my daughter hate him? It's just that my daughter has always regarded him as an elder brother and never thought of anything else. How can these brothers and sisters be husband and wife?"

Cheng Xiumei laughed and said: "This is the courtesy of you as a girl, but you two know the bottom line, is it better to be married than to marry an outsider? Besides, your cousin's wife is more than ten thousand. Your queen is just like your aunt, with indescribable splendor and glory."

Sister Yu was a little anxious, and hurriedly said: "Since I regard him as an elder brother in my heart, I am afraid that he also regards me as a younger sister in my heart. If we are really married, I will feel weird in my heart. If this continues, my daughter will be afraid." I'm going to be A-Jiao Chen. To say something disrespectful, although my aunt has a limited reputation, in the eyes of my daughter, she feels that she is no different from a bird in a cage."

Cheng Xiumei didn't expect her daughter to think this way, so she couldn't help but look at her in surprise.

Sister Yu said: "Although being a daughter-in-law mostly takes care of her life in her husband's house, she can also go back to her mother's house for a walk during the New Year's Eve. , how carefree and carefree, once in the palace now, it is rare to leave the palace once in a year or two, so we have to let us visit the palace once or twice. It is tantamount to going to jail, and my daughter does not like this kind of life. If my aunt really If you want to mention this matter, please ask the mother to shirk the burden for her daughter."

Seeing sister Yu's worried expression, Cheng Xiumei felt relieved when she knew that her daughter did not want to marry the prince at all, and said with a smile, "Since you said so, why didn't mother do what you wanted? It's rare that my son I can think clearly, but my mother has lost her mind."

Sister Yu also laughed and said, "It's not that I don't want to understand, but my daughter can obviously take advantage of the power of the queen's aunt and the prince's cousin. Domineering in front of the world and enjoying the envy of everyone, isn't this feeling better than being in prison in the palace?" Much better."

After hearing this, Cheng Xiumei felt more relieved, and she really told Shen Qiujun that she no longer had the idea of ​​sending her daughter to the palace.

On the other hand, after Shen Qiujun heard about Sister Yu's words, he really sighed in his heart for her transparency, but felt a little sorry for her son.Fortunately, Brother Song has always been self-disciplined, and believes that the parents should make decisions about children's marriage, and it is true that he is too young to be enlightened, and Shen Qiujun is strict, so he has never been tempted by the women around him.

Of course, this is something to say later, since Zhuang Chengrong intends to play tricks on the two brothers and sisters of the Shen family.Naturally, we have to check the results from time to time, so about Mrs. Shen and Shen Lijun.It's easy for him to know.

On this day, Xiao Chengzi reported the recent situation of the Shen family again, and Zhuang Chengrong smiled with satisfaction: "This sister-in-law Shen is a wonderful person. I was worried that I would not get rid of Shen Lijun's mother and son, but she helped me solve this problem. , I will also take advantage of the situation to help her. If the mother and son are not polished to the next level, the Duke of Wei's mansion will not be built in a short while. It is best for them to eat dogs. They kill each other before calling me heart."

Xiao Chengzi was well aware of his master's bad tastes, so he just laughed along with him at this time, Zhuang Chengrong warned again: "Don't tell the queen about these things, lest she feel uneasy again."

Xiao Chengzi hurriedly laughed and said: "The empress is busy with affairs now, so naturally I can't bother her with such trivial matters."

Zhuang Chengrong nodded, his words were true, Shen Qiujun was indeed very busy these two days entertaining the Queen of Beiman - Princess Changning.

Compared with the previous life, Bei Man has undergone great changes in this life.

Because Shen Qiujun killed General Xiao that day, Prince Beiman completely lost the support of the Xiao family, and because of the failure of his envoy, he also disappointed the officials of Beiman. The plan could not be carried out, so the old Beiman king was able to live comfortably for a few more years until Zhuang Chengrong won the throne.

And Princess Changning did not have many convenient conditions in her previous life, and it was not easy to live in the Beiman Palace. In this way, although she resented Da Qi in her heart, she also knew that Da Qi was her only backer, but if she wanted to get Da Qi's approval, You have to make some achievements yourself.

So these years, she tried her best to fight for the favor of the old lord. After more than ten years, she really took a place in the heart of the old lord, and also laid the foundation for her alliance with the prince of the Northern Man, so as to end the war between the Northern Man and the Northern Man. The war between Daqi played a certain role.

Naturally, Shen Qiujun didn't know these details. She looked down on Princess Changning in her previous life, but she didn't dare to ignore the influence of Princess Changning in this life in Beiman and her contribution to the stability of Daqi's border. Such a strange woman, how can such a person not be loved and respected?

Whether public or private, during the period when Princess Changning returned to China, Da Qi had to make a face for her.

Therefore, when Zhuang Chengrong was negotiating state affairs with Beiman, he did not forget to give Long En the first time, generously rewarded the Huai'an Palace, and specially gave a separate courtyard near the Huai'an Palace as the residence of Princess Changning, so that she During this time in the capital, I often get together with my parents to relieve the pain of years of separation.

Shen Qiujun invited Princess Changning to the palace for gatherings from time to time. There were endless rewards and banquets, and he ordered all the concubines to accompany him. Princess Changning became the most beautiful figure in the capital for a while.

On this day, Shen Qiujun took advantage of the wine to talk to Princess Changning for a long time, and the people next to him made fun of him from time to time. Thinking about the different experiences of Princess Changning in her two lives, Shen Qiujun felt touched for a moment, and brought A little drunk, he ordered someone to display the four treasures of the study room, and wrote a Zhaojun poem to present to Princess Changning: "The general, the concubine and the fan, are also grateful to the Jade Pass. Fight to the death and live for the country. Dare to blame the confidante for your life."

Although Princess Changning has deep feelings for her homeland and relatives, she is not a little girl after all. She knows that the glory in Daqi today is due to her own value. It's all necessary, Da Qi wants to use her prestige and power in the Northern Man to achieve border peace, and she uses Da Qi as a backer to consolidate her position in the Northern Man.

But when she saw Shen Qiujun comparing her achievements with Wang Qiang's and admiring her actions in poems, Princess Changning couldn't help her eyes moisten, and she deeply regarded Shen Qiujun as her confidant in her heart.

Besides, Shen Qiujun is the mother of a country, so her attitude naturally represents the Emperor Daqi's opinion of herself, not to mention the weight that the mother of the country holds in Emperor Daqi's heart. This cannot but move her, and also makes her feel The sacrifice of marrying and stepson that I made before was worth it.

Yes, Princess Changning is still married to the prince of Beiman after the death of the old lord. Although this is a very common thing in the eyes of Beiman, but she has been educated by the orthodox thought of the Central Plains since she was a child. In Princess Changning's heart, this is something that shames her.

At that time, she was a young girl accompanied by the white-haired old lord of the country. Although she was wronged in her heart, she did not think about marrying a chicken as a chicken, even a widow remarried, but marrying a stepson always violated the principles of ethics in her heart, but At that time, she had no better choice, but could only follow the arrangement of fate, but there was always a deep sense of shame hidden in her heart.

But Daqi's high praise for her today finally relieved her of this heavy burden in her heart. Princess Changning said to Shen Qiujun with emotion: "With my mother's words, I finally did not walk in the world in vain. In this world, I dare not disappoint Da Qi and the people of Li people in Da Qi."

Shen Qiujun hurriedly smiled and said: "You have done a good job. If it weren't for your hard work, I am afraid that the people on the border between the two countries are still in dire straits at this time, so Da Qi and the people of Da Qi will be forever. I love you and remember you, and you must live a better life as a woman, so that Daqi's relatives can have less thoughts in their hearts."

Princess Changning smiled with tears in her eyes: "I will definitely do what my mother said, Daqi will always be my homeland."

Although everyone had only read the poem once, and it had been in the left ear and out in the right ear, they also knew that it was Shen Qiujun who praised Princess Changning. Now seeing how touched Princess Changning was, they rushed forward to praise Princess Changning Excellent talent and Shen Qiujun's agility.

Shen Qiujun felt embarrassed, turned his eyes and saw that Li Yaoqin was also there, felt even more embarrassed, and couldn't help smiling at Li Yaoqin, but he didn't know that it was this smile that made Li Yaoqin feel uneasy in the days to come. More on that later.

When everyone returned to their seats and enjoyed the singing and dancing, Princess Changning's mood had calmed down, and she smiled at Shen Qiujun again: "I just did what I can, but I dare not take full credit for it. I would also like to thank Brother Ling, General Shen. It was he who sent someone to persuade me secretly early on, and made me understand more things. My vision and mind are not limited to competing with others. It was sending someone to help me, and that’s why I made such a small contribution in the war between the two countries, but these things are not easy to put on the surface, and I haven’t thanked him properly yet.”

Shen Qiujun was a little surprised when he heard this, she didn't expect Shen Zhaoying to do such a thing, Princess Changning said again: "General Shen is good at leading troops on the border, and he has made great achievements in defending the border. The general is really a great fortune for Da Qi. Now that I see the empress again, I realize that the name of Marquis Shen is well-deserved. Needless to say, the merits of establishing the dynasty back then, even the sons and daughters are well educated."

Shen Qiujun hurriedly smiled and said a few words of humility, but suddenly felt in his heart that he had been blinded by personal grievances, and had too much prejudice against Shen Zhaoying.
