Chapter 279 Old Friend
What a wonderful fate.

After going around and around, she finally got together with a few of them, sitting opposite each other and talking. The long years of love-hate entanglement in the middle seemed like they had never happened.

Jiang Shaohua looked at the four beautiful and lively faces of girls with different expressions in front of him. Their moods were complex and subtle, but their faces showed no emotion.

"Cousin Shaohua," Princess Baohua said softly, "You have been staying in Nanyang County for the past few years. This is the first time we have met."

Jiang Shaohua responded with the same soft voice: "I have always admired and respected cousin Baohua. When I saw her today, she was more beautiful, gentler, and more approachable than I imagined."

The words spoken by Jiang Shaohua in such a scene were extremely sincere.

A smile flashed in Princess Baohua's eyes.

Jiang Guanhua and Jiang Yuehua looked at each other and said calmly: "Cousin Shaohua has always been reluctant to enter the palace. Now that she is here, she will never leave again. If we stay in the palace in the future, we can get closer."

Jiang Yuehua answered: "The Queen Mother loves you so much, you must honor her well from now on."

The two sang and harmonized, and they had a tacit understanding.

The two of them often quarreled and fought over everything. Today we have a common foreign enemy, so we immediately unite our front and face the outside world in unison.

Jiang Shaohua said calmly: "The two cousins ​​misunderstood. I came to the capital to attend the funeral. I will return to Nanyang after the emperor is buried and the new emperor ascends the throne."

Jiang Guanhua and Jiang Yuehua quickly looked at each other, their expressions visibly relaxed.

If Jiang Shaohua leaves soon, it will be good news for them.

Fan Jianing, who had been looking at Jiang Shaohua quietly, suddenly opened his mouth: "Why doesn't the princess want to stay? The capital is the most prosperous, richest and best place in the world. Why does the princess want to leave?"

Fan Jianing is two years older than Jiang Shaohua. He is fifteen this year and will reach adulthood in two months. She was born delicate and beautiful, with a pair of black eyes as clear as water. Just like a cute little deer, anyone who takes a look at it will fall in love with it.

In her previous life, Fan Jianing was devoted to Zheng Chen and was considered a love rival with her. However, neither of them blushed.

After Fan Jianing married Zheng Chen, she died of dystocia within two years, leaving only one daughter. Zheng Chen has many beauties around him, but he has never remarried.

Everyone knew who Zheng Chen was keeping as his wife. She didn't want to remarry, so Zheng Chen stopped remarrying. As a result, the daughter Fan Jianing left behind grew up to be a pampered adult. The Fan family has also maintained close contacts and good relations with the Zheng family.

Troubled past events flashed through Jiang Shaohua's mind. She responded calmly: "Although the capital is good, Nanyang is my home, Jiang Shaohua. Of course I want to go back."

Jiang Guanhua and Jiang Yuehua were heartbroken by these two sentences, and they all fell silent.

Fan Jianing didn't pay attention at all and opened his mouth and said: "A woman always has to grow up and get married. Your future husband's family is your real home. If you go back to Nanyang, you will have to get married in a few years. You can't stay in Nanyang County for the rest of your life."

Jiang Guanhua and Jiang Yuehua looked up in unison, wanting to hear Jiang Shaohua's response.

Jiang Shaohua still looked calm and unhurried, and said unhurriedly: "I don't want to get married. Even if I get married in the future, I won't get married. I will just recruit a son-in-law."

Fan Jianing was a little surprised and blurted out: "But, which kind son is willing to become a son-in-law?"

As soon as the words came out, I suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Jiang Shaohua's father Lu Xuan was his son-in-law. When she said this, wouldn't it mean that Lu Junma was also buried?

Princess Baohua glanced at Fan Jianing quickly, coughed slightly, and signaled Fan Jianing to shut up.

Fan Jianing apologized sarcastically: "I didn't mean what I said. I made a mistake. Please don't take offense, Princess." Jiang Shaohua smiled faintly: "What Miss Fan said is actually quite reasonable. Sons of good families don't want to be sons-in-law. However, I I have made a vow on my grandfather's grave that I will never leave Nanyang County in this life. The only way to inherit my grandfather's legacy is to recruit a son-in-law."

Therefore, there is no need for you to be on guard.

I, Jiang Shaohua, will not be your love rival, nor will I steal your sweetheart.

I don’t know if Fan Jianing understood the meaning of the words, but in short, the three girls named Jiang all understood it.

Jiang Guanhua's tone instantly became affectionate: "My cousin Shaohua is still young, so it will be a few years before we discuss marriage. Maybe, I can't tell if I will change my mind in the past few years."

After living in the palace for several years and meeting several princes from time to time, Jiang Wanhua already had someone in his heart.

"Even if you really want to recruit a son-in-law, since Daliang is so big, you can always choose a suitable one." Jiang Yuehua also breathed a sigh of relief. She is one year younger than Jiang Wanhua, so even when discussing marriage, she has to be at the back.

Princess Baohua gave them an angry look: "Cousin Shaohua is new here, don't keep saying this."

Instead of talking about these, we have to talk about the funeral in the palace.

It is not appropriate to joke during the mourning period. Princess Baohua lost her father and felt heavy. She chatted for a few words and then fell silent.

There was a knock on the door, and a palace servant came in to report: "Your Highness, Princess Qi, Prince Dongping and his son came to Beijing for a funeral and have already entered the palace."

Jiang Guanhua's eyes lit up, and he stood up suddenly, his voice trembling with excitement: "Have my grandfather and father really entered the palace?"

The palace man said happily: "Yes, Prince Dongping and the Crown Prince have entered the Showa Palace."

Jiang Guanhua was so excited that she almost cried.

She was taken into the palace to live at the age of eleven and had not seen her relatives for five years. When a vassal king becomes a vassal queen, he cannot leave the vassal territory at will without a court order. When Emperor Taikang passed away, all the vassal princes came to the capital to attend the funeral after hearing the news of his death.

Jiang Yuehua also became excited and asked expectantly: "Has my father entered the palace? And my mother and three brothers, are they all here?"

The palace servant who delivered the message respectfully replied: "Back to the county lord, the father-in-law who delivered the message didn't say anything."

Huaiyang County is a long way away, and the King of Huaiyang is still on the road with his wife and children.

Jiang Yuehua was a little discouraged and sighed.

Princess Baohua comforted her softly: "Cousin Yuehua, don't be impatient. Uncle Huaiyang and the others will be here in a few days at most."

Jiang Yuehua nodded, secretly cursing in his heart. Of course you are not in a hurry. You live with your grandmother and brother every day. How do we know the pain of being far away from our loved ones?

Jiang Wanhua could no longer hold back and whispered to Princess Baohua: "I want to send someone to Zhaohe Palace to deliver a message to my father and brother."

Princess Baohua was very considerate: "Don't be too showy, just send people away quietly."

Jiang Guanhua responded briskly and immediately stood up and went out.

Jiang Shaohua stared at Jiang Wanhua's figure.

In his previous life, King Dongping secretly colluded with King Gaoliang to murder the new emperor. After the death of the new emperor, both the Dongping Palace and the Gaoliang Palace were wiped out.

Poor Jiang Guanhua, before she could marry her sweetheart, she ended up with her body and head missing.
