The emperor always wants to promise himself

Chapter 117 Sister
Zhen Zhixing frowned: "What are you talking about?"

Zhen Xuerou bit her lips: "I'm your younger sister, big brother, don't forget that Zhen Xuetian is no longer from our Dingguo Mansion, and has never been raised in Dingguo Mansion since she was a child, and has no relationship with us. "

Zhen Zhixing was startled, his expression calmed down, what Zhen Xuerou said was right, Zhen Xuetian really didn't have any relationship with them, there was such a quarrel before, her gaining power now may not be a good thing for them.

"Okay, it's fine if you tell me about it, don't let other people hear it, and don't let grandfather know, or he will punish you again."

Zhen Xuerou nodded, with an indifferent expression: "I know that family discord is a family matter, and going outside will only make people laugh."

Zhen Zhixing nodded in relief, and reached out to stroke her hair, "Good boy, you don't have to envy her, you are the daughter of our Dingguo mansion, and your future will not be worse than her."

Zhen Xuerou seemed to be comforted by these words, she curled her lips, "Yeah, I don't know who I will be in the future, no matter what, she can't possibly pass me by."

The lady in front helped the old lady to stand up and walk back, Zhen Xuerou immediately put on a gentle expression, stepped forward and took the old lady's arm affectionately, "Grandma, shall I support you?"

The old lady smiled kindly: "Okay, you support me."

The eldest lady and Zhen Xuerou supported the old lady from left to right, and walked slowly. The eldest lady glanced at her delicate and lovely little daughter, and the haze in her heart dissipated a lot. She deliberately said in front of the old lady : "Xuerou is getting more and more sensible, and she will be a good wife when she gets married in the future."

The old lady's face was slightly stiff, and the smile on her lips faded away. She glanced at Zhen Xuerou and saw that she was looking at her relyingly. It’s not too late to talk about it later.”

"But my father said that we should make a plan early. After all, Xuerou's status is very different now, so we should make a decision as soon as possible."

The old lady paused, and cast a cold glance at the old lady, "What do you think of Xuerou? She is your daughter, not a chess piece for power and gain, don't test me here, you all are stalking me. It's not that I don't know, don't show off in front of me, I can't make the decision, but I can still punish you."

The lady's face froze suddenly: "Mother, I didn't mean that—"

"Hmph, in front of the juniors, I'll save you some face. Next time, don't blame me for not showing respect."

The old lady brushed her hand away, turned her head to look at Zhen Xuerou, and shook her head: "You don't have to follow grandma anymore, grandma will go by herself."

As she spoke, she leaned on crutches and walked slowly towards the backyard step by step.

Zhen Xuerou's hands froze in the air, she turned her head and looked at the eldest lady complaining, "Mom, why did you tell grandma these things? When my sister was sent away, grandma had a pimple in her heart, and now you still go to her heart Poke, do you still blame grandma for falling out with you?"

The lady shook her sleeves, and said with a displeased face: "I want to see her reaction? Then Zhen Xuetian has already flown to the branches, how about you? It's not settled yet, can I not be anxious? "

As she said that, she felt a little wronged again, took Zhen Xuerou's hand and said: "If I hadn't stopped you back then, your sister might have drowned your grandfather directly! Why is the villain now me? She is also my daughter, Can I be so cruel? But she hasn't called me mother for so many years, how can I get close? "

"I think you are in a daze, you dare to say anything!"

A low shout came from behind, and the eldest lady was shocked immediately. She turned around in fear, and saw Duke Ding standing behind her at some point, staring at her with an unfriendly expression.

Zhen Xuerou also turned around, and obediently bowed to Ding Guogong: "Grandpa."

Dingguo glanced at her: "You are the first lady of my Dingguo's mansion, I will arrange your marriage for you, and I won't humiliate your identity. Don't listen to your mother's nonsense. As for your sister, No matter who she is, she is your sister, you two sisters should support each other so that you can go further in the future, understand?"

His glance implied a warning, Zhen Xuerou's heart trembled, and then she leaned forward and said: "Yes, Xuerou remembered."

"Go ahead, do whatever you want, as for you—"

He pointed at the eldest lady, "Go back to your yard and reflect on yourself. As the mistress of the house, what should be said and what should not be said, come out after thinking clearly."

Da Furen didn't dare to refute, so she could only suppress the grievance in her heart, "Yes."

Duke Ding snorted coldly, "Zhixing, follow me to the study."

Zhen Zhixing came from behind, cupped his hands and said, "Yes, grandfather."

He glanced at the eldest lady and shook his head helplessly.

……

Ning Zhao from the palace formally took office after receiving the order. She went to the West Palace to greet Zhen Mu, and Zhen Mu called people from the Garment Bureau to measure her.

"When you walk around in the palace in the future, you will dress differently from other people. You have to let them make a suit for you overnight."

Zhen Mu looked at Ning Zhao, who was being surrounded by people to measure her size, and said, "You have a good figure, and you look good in anything."

Ning Zhao raised her head and smiled slightly at her: "Auntie praises it, the prince is the one who looks good in anything."

Zhen Mu bent her lips: "That's true, by the way, the imperial edict has probably been sent to Dingguo's mansion at this moment, and I don't know how your grandfather will react when he receives the imperial edict."

Ning Zhao was a little puzzled about her address, but looked at the people around her, and didn't ask directly. After the people from the Garment Bureau left, she sat down on Zhen Mu's head and asked hesitantly: "Auntie doesn't seem to be Do you like grandfather and the others very much?"

Zhen Mu looked down at her, playing with a strand of her own hair wrapped in her hand, "You are so brave, can you ask this casually?"

Ning Zhao was not afraid, and said frankly: "Because there are no outsiders here, my aunt and I are blood relatives, the prince told me that my aunt is my own, so I didn't understand, so I asked directly, I thought my aunt didn't like going around in circles either. "

Zhen Mu squinted at her, seeing that she was really not afraid, her eyes were clean and clear, she couldn't help laughing, "Okay, good boy, I hate people going around in circles the most. After so many years in the palace, I'm tired of intrigue. Temperament, I like it. You are much better than your sister."

When Zhen Xuerou was mentioned, Ning Zhao's face turned pale.

Seeing this, Zhen Mu was a little curious, so she lowered her voice and asked, "The queen mother was there before, so I can't ask directly, why don't you seem to like Xuerou very much, what happened? Tell me."

Ning Zhao pursed her lips: "She was the one who couldn't tolerate me. I went back to Dingguo Mansion with the prince that day. I thought they missed me after so many years..."
