Good luck today

"Master Xiangning was married before, master, don't you know?"

Suqiu apparently didn't expect that Su Shixia didn't even know the details of her "rival in love", so she carefully talked to Su Shixia about the past of Xiangning princess while helping Su Shixia tidy up her clothes.

The current Holy Majesty succeeded to the throne after a palace change, and several of his brothers had already died because of killing each other when they were fighting for the throne.

From the blood of the previous emperor, the only ones who are still alive are the Holy One and the Eldest Princess, and since the Eldest Princess is the sister of the current Holy One, the Holy One naturally takes great care of her.

After the Holy Majesty ascended the throne, he not only specially ordered the construction of the eldest princess' mansion, but also personally decreed to grant a marriage, and recruited Ning Zhiyuan, the second son of the Jingguo mansion who was known as the unparalleled son, as the eldest princess' son-in-law.

"This happened more than 20 years ago. The maidservant hadn't been born at that time, so naturally she hadn't witnessed the demeanor of the son-in-law."

Suqiu said with a sigh, "However, before I entered the mansion, I heard some old people in the capital say that the reason why Mr. Wushuang was called 'Wu Shuang' was because of his identity, appearance, and talent. It's also his physical ability, everything is impeccable. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the dream lover of all the girls in the capital."

Su Shixia just smiled when she heard the words, and didn't take it seriously. Rumors are the most unbelievable thing, and she understands this very well.

Seeing Su Shixia's thoughts, Su Qiu muttered a little dissatisfied, "What the servants said is true! Those old people have a nose and eyes in what they said, and they all still remember the handsome appearance of that young master Wushuang. Woolen cloth."

"Even...even if that Mr. Wushuang is not as perfect as they said, but he was well-known as the No. [-] figure in Shangjing, at least he is no worse than King Pingxi now!"

"Okay, okay, I believe, I believe."

Su Shixia seemed to be coaxing Suqiu, and said with a smile: "Isn't he the eldest princess's husband? Anyway, today is the eldest princess's birthday banquet, so I will know what the unparalleled son looks like when I go to see him today. "

"Master, you really don't care about going to the capital at all!"

After hearing Su Shixia's words, Suqiu became more and more helpless, "Princess Xiangning lost her father since she was a child! Less than half a year after the eldest princess gave birth to Princess Xiangning, that Prince Wushuang passed away!"

When Suqiu said this, she couldn't help but sighed again, "I don't know if it's because Mr. Wushuang's fate is so poor that he can't bear the favor of the heavenly family, or because Mr. Jingguo's Ning's family is doomed to have such a hurdle. The capital was plagued by epidemics in those two years. Well, the entire Yasukuni mansion was infected with a strange disease, and in less than half a year, all the people in the mansion died of illness one after another."

What disease is so serious?Half a year of hard work has killed everyone in the whole mansion?
Su Shixia frowned slightly, and was aroused by this matter, but Suqiu didn't continue to talk, and only brought the topic back to Xiangning Princess.

"The eldest princess also has deep affection for her husband. After the unparalleled son died of illness, she did not remarry, and lived with the princess of Xiangning."

"Because Princess Xiangning is the only blood of her and her son-in-law, the Eldest Princess naturally loves Princess Xiangning very much. She has protected her land like eyes since she was a child, and she is absolutely reluctant to let her suffer any grievances."

"The Holy Majesty is the same, I just want to give the good things in the world to Princess Xiangning. When the Princess of Xiangning is about to reach her age, the Holy Majesty personally bestowed a marriage on her, and let her marry Lu Shaocheng, the eldest son of Lord Zhen Guo."

"Duke Zhen?"

Su Shixia narrowed her eyes slightly, finally she had some impression this time.

"If I remember correctly, the Duke of Zhen's Lu family should not be in Shangjing, right? His family seems to be stationed at the border all the year round. It is because he wants to guard the border for Dongling Kingdom that he was named Duke of Zhen?"

Although the memories of the two lives have been completely fused, she was in the countryside when she was young in this life, and was trapped in the inner house after she arrived in Shangjing, and she didn't know much about the situation in Dongling Kingdom and Shangjing.

What she remembers now is just that she heard it by chance before, and she herself is not sure whether the news is accurate or not.

Her tone was obviously uncertain, but Suqiu nodded with certainty: "Yes, master, you remember correctly, the Lu family of the Duke of the town is at the border! So Princess Xiangning went directly to the border when she got married. .”

"The son of Lord Zhen Guo was in the prime of his life, and I heard that he was both civil and military, with outstanding looks, and he could be called the proud son of heaven. If it weren't for this, the Holy Majesty would not have personally decreed a marriage between him and Princess Xiangning."

"Back then, everyone thought that this was a heaven-sent marriage, and that the two of them would be happy after marriage, but...something happened in the end."

"It's a bit wicked to talk about it."

Suqiu lowered her voice, and said mysteriously, "Because the Lu family is at the border, it was the prince of the Duke of Zhen who came to the capital to welcome his relatives, and brought the princess of Xiangning to the residence of the Duke of Zhen at the border along the way."

"The journey went very smoothly. After arriving at the Duke of Zhen's mansion, the two of them also paid homage. However, on the night of their wedding, an enemy army suddenly invaded the country of Xiqi. The son of Duke of Zhen led the troops to meet the enemy. Once you go, you never come back.”

Su Shixia frowned when she heard this, "Dead?"

"Yes!"

Suqiu said: "He was hacked to death by the people of Xiqi State with knives and trampled by horseshoes. When the body was found, it was already beyond recognition. Only by the things he wore on his body could he be identified. his identity."

"My servant heard that the princess of Xiangning and the son of the Duke of Zhen hadn't consummated their marriage at all that night, but because the two had already worshiped the heaven and the earth, the master of the Xiangning county was already the concubine of the prince, so she also You must keep your filial piety for your son for one year."

"One year?"

Su Shixia looked at Suqiu suspiciously, "The two children of Xie's family came here and told me that they were still young when Qin Yi adopted them. During the years when they were in the border, Princess Xiangning often went to Watch them."

"According to what they said, Princess Xiangning has been at the border for more than a year."

"Isn't that because of the prince?"

Seeing that Su Shixia still hadn't figured out the situation, Suqiu had no choice but to remind: "The year when Princess Xiangning got married was also the year when you and the prince got married. The defense of the Duke of Zhenguo was not strong enough, which led to the loss of the border. The news spread back to the capital, and the Holy One was furious, so he specially issued an order for the prince to lead the troops to the border."

"The prince left on your wedding night to clean up the mess left by the Duke of Zhen."

Suqiu anxiously said: "My lord, do you still not understand it? The Xiangning princess can come back as long as she keeps her filial piety for one year, but she has stayed at the border for five full years, and she still wants to come back with the prince! It's clear that she has taken a fancy to the prince, and she wants to grab a man from you!"
