flawless

Chapter 29
When Dad was here, even though he was out fighting all the year round and rarely came home, his reputation spread far and wide. Who in the world would not respect the sons and daughters of the Chang family?In Jinling City, who dare not take the Founding Duke's Mansion seriously?After he died suddenly, he couldn't do it anymore. Although the emperor mourned again and again, proclaimed him king, and managed his affairs in a splendid way, but when he is gone, he is gone, and the founding mansion will never return to the old days.

The emperor also specially selected me, Chang Zhaoxia, as the crown prince concubine from many famous Shuyuan, so what?Since ancient times, it has been difficult to be a crown prince, and the crown princess is even more trembling like walking on thin ice in an abyss.I have worked hard in the East Palace for ten years, and as a result, my end, the end of the Chang family...

Don't dare to recall.

It's chilling to think about.

"That's a dream, it must be a nightmare." The girl murmured.

Now that Dad is still alive, everything will be different.Those tragedies in the dream will definitely not happen...

The auntie came here to give the jade pendant full of joy, but when she saw her crying, she panicked, "Xiao Chao, why are you crying? Did you get moved by your father? Silly child, your father always loves you. You Although it is not his first child, it is his first daughter..."

The aunt took the handkerchief and wiped her tears gently, very gently.The girl choked with sobs and opened her mouth, "How long is it before I reach Ji?"

As soon as the voice came out, she startled herself.This is a delicate and clear girl's voice, like pearls falling on a jade plate, like a yellow warbler coming out of a valley, it is very different from her voice when she was nearly thirty years old.

"No hurry, there are still three months." The aunt said hurriedly.

Xiaochao, are you afraid that you will be sick and cannot hold a grand ceremony?It was childish.

Three months!
The girl's eyes lit up.

In that nightmare, the news of his father's sudden death spread to the capital, just three months before his Jiji!
"Where did my father go?" the girl asked coquettishly.

"Look at you child, you're sick and confused." The aunt smiled, "Your father returned to the imperial court in victory, and he went back to his hometown to pay respects to your ancestors and visit your majesty after he entered the palace. He felt guilty for not visiting your grandparents' graves for many years. , He left without even returning home, and we didn't see him..." Thinking of Duke Kai who was in such a hurry to go back to his hometown and didn't go back to Changfu Street at all, Auntie couldn't help feeling depressed, her eyes darkened.

The girl pinched herself severely under the quilt, and the corners of her mouth twitched in pain.

My dad is really alive!He went back to his hometown to sweep the grave!He knew that I was "bewitched by evil spirits", so he specially ordered someone to give me a jade pendant to ward off evil spirits!
The girl smiled with tears in her eyes, and her smile was very cheerful.

Seeing her like this, the aunt also smiled comfortably.She thought of something serious, "Here are two jade pendants, the sapphire pendant belongs to your father, I know it, and the other one belongs to the third lady, hey, Xiaochao looks at you, it is the suet jade pendant. These two jade pendants, They were all sent to you to ward off evil spirits."

Zhaoxia glanced at the jade pendant, and pondered: "Did it come from the third sister?"

The third younger sister's nickname is Jiaojiao. She was still young when her father passed away, and she had been with Mrs. Lan in her hometown.After her father passed away, the body was brought back to the capital, and Mrs. Lan brought Jiaojiao back to attend the funeral. Jiaojiao didn't cry much, she didn't like to laugh, she was a little dazed.

She never gave her a scientific name, but she was called Jiaojiao.

My aunt once mentioned the elegant name "Jinxia" carefully, but Mrs. Lan ignored it at all.Jiaojiao, as her name suggests, was raised very delicately, she would put up her face and get angry at every turn, and her temper was not gentle at all.She is Mrs. Lan's beloved daughter, and has her eldest brother and her uncle General Lan as backers. She was really flamboyant when she was a child.If the eldest brother and General Lan are always proud, Jiaojiao will be smooth for the rest of her life, right?
Zhaoxia thinks of those cruel past events, feeling sad.
