Abandoned Concubine's Promotion

Chapter 1045
Shun'er clearly felt that the atmosphere during this period was a little weird, but she couldn't say exactly what was weird.

Zhou Jingxuan treated her the same as before, except that occasionally, he looked at himself with complicated eyes.

Looking at my aunt and uncle again, their gazes would pass over themselves and Zhou Jingxuan from time to time.

After thinking about it, Shun'er couldn't think of a reason, so she simply pretended not to know anything, and continued to get along with Zhou Jingxuan in the usual way.

The journey kept moving forward, and finally arrived at the capital of Zhou Kingdom. Because Zhou Jin had written a letter, preparations had already been made in the palace.

Shun'er lives in Xiaoyao Wang's Mansion, which has her own courtyard, which is well furnished.

The wedding between Zhou Jin and Shen Lanzhu is scheduled to be half a month later. During this half month, Zhou Jin will take Shen Lanzhu to get acquainted with the royal family.

After trying on the wedding dress, Shen Lanzhu changed back to her usual clothes. The size of the wedding dress was just right, which surprised Shen Lanzhu a little.

What she didn't know was that when Zhou Jin took her to the cloth village before, after the embroiderer had measured the size, she secretly wrote it down, and then sent it back to Zhou Guo together with the letter.

If not, how would the embroiderers of Zhou Guo know the exact size of Shen Lanzhu?
Although Shen Lanzhu was from Xing'an, Zhou's royal family didn't care too much about her identity. To them, her identity didn't matter, as long as King Xiaoyao liked it.

Besides, they are already members of the royal family, what kind of status can they marry?As long as there is no taboo, no one will explore the identity of the princess.

This made Shen Lanzhu breathe a sigh of relief. She had been worried that her previous identity would be criticized by others.

After returning to Zhou Kingdom's capital, Zhou Jingxuan was busy for a while because Zhou Jingxuan was the prince.

After all, Zhou Guo and Xing'an are two countries, and many things are different. Shun'er searched for a lot of things that she thought were good, and when she was going back to Xing'an, she gave them to her brothers and sisters.

After being busy, the first thing Zhou Jingxuan did was to find Shun'er.

Knowing that Shun'er had gone to the street, Zhou Jingxuan went to look for Shun'er alone.

When she found Shun'er, she was drinking tea and resting. Seeing Zhou Jingxuan, Shun'er was a little surprised, and there was a strange feeling in her heart that she couldn't explain.

"Are you done with your work?" Shun'er asked with a smile after pouring Zhou Jingxuan a cup of tea.

"Well, after I came back, I was busy with a lot of things. I finally finished my work, so I came to see you. You...how are you recently?"

Sitting opposite Shun'er, Zhou Jingxuan looked at Shun'er, seeing that she was in good spirits, he felt relieved a lot.

"Very good. Zhou's capital is not quite the same as ours in Xing'an. It's quite interesting. I bought a lot of things and I'm going to bring them to my brothers and sisters when I go back to Xing'an."

Responding with a smile, Shun'er picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, "You seem to have lost some weight, are you busy?"

"You want to go back to Xing'an?" Without answering Shun'er's question, Zhou Jingxuan looked at her with a hint of anxiety in his tone.

"I have to go back in the future. I can't stay in Zhou Kingdom all the time? After all, I am the princess of Xing'an. After I have seen the places I want to go, I should go back. After all, I am not young anymore, so I can't Everything comes from your temper."

Hearing the anxiety in Zhou Jingxuan's words, Shun'er lowered her eyes and responded in a low voice. At this moment, she felt a little sore in her heart.

She was at a loss, not understanding why this emotion came from.

"But..." After Shun'er finished speaking, Zhou Jingxuan opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything.

There was silence between the two of them, Shun'er was thinking about the emotions in his heart, while Zhou Jingxuan was searching for words in his mind, thinking about what to say to Shun'er in order to express his feelings.

Along the way, he thought about a lot, including his own affairs, and also between him and Shun'er. Although there were some things that he might not be able to come up with a better solution to, there was always a good solution.

Zhou Jingxuan knew very well that if Shun'er left, he might never see her again. In that case, no amount of friendship would be of any use.

But no matter how much he thought about it, at this moment, he still felt short of words. This was something he had never done before, which made him a little frustrated.

Shun'er took a deep breath, looked up at Zhou Jingxuan, she could feel that the person sitting opposite her was a little depressed.

"Zhou Jingxuan, you are the Crown Prince of Zhou. You should be familiar with this capital, right?" After a long time, Shun'er opened his mouth and said to Zhou Jingxuan.

Shun'er spoke suddenly, Zhou Jingxuan couldn't recover, he raised his head, looked at Shun'er, a little dazed.

"Why don't you talk?" Seeing Zhou Jingxuan like this, Shun'er smiled and spoke again.

"I...I'm naturally familiar with it. Tomorrow...tomorrow, let me take you around the capital?"

"Okay." Shun'er nodded, "Tomorrow you can go to Xiaoyao Wangfu to find me, I will wait for you."

"En!" Zhou Jingxuan responded quickly, and the depression in his heart eased a little because he saw Shun'er's smile.

"Let's go, let's eat, I'm hungry." Seeing Zhou Jingxuan's answer, Shun'er rubbed her stomach, she was a little hungry.

Zhou Jingxuan got up quickly, threw some loose silver, and left the teahouse with Shun'er.

In Kyoto, he knew best, and he took Shun'er to find a good restaurant.

While eating, Zhou Jingxuan put all his emotions behind him for the time being, and only concentrated on accompanying Shun Er, eating and playing.

It was not until evening that Zhou Jingxuan sent Shun'er back to Xiaoyao Palace, he watched Shun'er go in, and then he turned around and went back to the palace.

When he was far away, Shun'er appeared at the gate of Prince Xiaoyao's Mansion, she frowned slightly as she looked at the direction Zhou Jingxuan was leaving.

In the next few days, Zhou Jingxuan would appear in the Xiaoyao Palace every day, and he would accompany Shun'er to play in the capital.

This matter was quickly learned by the queen in the palace. After all, Zhou Jingxuan was the crown prince and her son, so she was naturally concerned.

Hearing that Shun'er lived in Prince Xiaoyao's mansion, the queen sent someone to inquire about Shun'er's details, but they couldn't find out anything. She thought about it and ordered people to invite Shun'er into the palace.

Knowing that Zhou Guo's queen wanted to see Shun'er, Shen Lanzhu was a little worried. She approached Zhou Jin and asked him to help her out.

"Don't worry, the empress has a gentle temper, she won't make things difficult for Shun'er, what's more, Shun'er is the first princess of Xing'an, and her status is also there. Even if she enters the palace, she will be regarded as a guest of honor."

Opening his mouth to comfort Shen Lanzhu, Zhou Jin planned to go to the palace and talk to the emperor about the matter between Zhou Jingxuan and Shun'er.

With him around, Shen Lanzhu felt much more at ease, and helped Shun'er take care of everything. She watched Shun'er head for the palace in a carriage.
