Chapter 94 Ask

"Mother, do you... have something on your mind?" Princess Ning Xin glanced at the box that Luo Xiyao left behind, and asked the palace servants around her to put the box away first out of sight and out of mind, "Luo Jiuniang said It's just bad and poisonous, so don't get angry with her, just teach your daughter a lesson later."

The queen recovered from her stupefaction, "Don't talk nonsense. You are a princess, the beloved daughter of His Majesty and this palace, why do you always have to submit articles to the courtier's daughter? Don't say that Luo Jiuniang has no father or mother, just say that she wants For the sake of Dongqi and Mobei, you have to let her go."

It’s okay if you don’t mention the marriage, but when you mention Princess Ningxin, you will be angry, "Mother, it’s true that the daughter is a princess, and the daughter is also willing to go to Mobei to marry for Dongqi, but the daughter said, the father disagrees! The daughter went to ask the emperor again. Grandmother and queen mother, but you all disagree."

"Isn't this all because of being reluctant to part with you and fearing that you will suffer?"

Princess Ning Xin stomped her feet, "Even so, Luo Jiuniang is not the only woman in Dongqi? She is disrespectful and disrespectful, and disrespectful to the emperor's grandmother. She was rude to her daughter just now... This is what she did to the queen mother." Disrespect! What is it? I really thought that Dong Qi could do without her!"

Seeing that Ning Xin's attention was diverted, the queen breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, the more you talk, the more shameful it becomes. I tell you that the marriage between Luo Jiuniang and He Lan Linzhang was approved by your father, and the imperial decree will come soon." It will be announced to the world. Ning Xin, after reaching the ceremony, you will no longer be a child, and His Majesty will also set the rules for your marriage, do you understand?"

"Mother." Princess Ning Xin stood up nervously, ran to squat down in front of the queen, and put her head on the queen's knee, "My daughter doesn't want to get married yet."

"Do you not want to get married, or are you unable to let go of Helan Linzhang?"

"Mother..."

"Ning Xin, if I don't say some things, it doesn't mean that I don't know. You grew up in the palace, and you learned the rules and etiquette well. Some mistakes can be made, and some mistakes... You have to pay the price for making mistakes. You think about it. Yet?"

The queen patted Princess Ning Xin's hair bun lightly, "Stop talking about it. This palace knows everything, do you think your father knows? Does your grandmother know? Do the other concubines know? In the court, the concubines in charge of the palace are all the daughters of important officials in the court, will they tell the family what they know? The reputation of a lady is so important, don't get me wrong."

With tears in her eyes, Princess Ning Xin bit her lower lip hard, "Mother, my daughter knows."

"Good boy. Prepare well for your wedding ceremony. This time several governors will bring their families to Beijing, and their wives and daughters will bring their daughters to your wedding ceremony. Take a look and listen more .”

What the queen didn't say was that when Ning Xin was looking at her, why wasn't she looking at her?
Even though the emperor of the Eastern Qi Dynasty could choose a son-in-law to marry him, if the son-in-law and his family were not willing, how could the melon that was twisted by force be sweet?
Ning Xin is not the queen's own daughter, but Ning Xin grew up under the queen's knees, and was innocent and cute since she was a child. Given the choice, the queen still hopes that Ning Xin will live well in the future.

After leaving the Queen's bedroom, Princess Ning Xin brought her back to the palace.

She opened the box containing the incense sticks and looked at it again, and said to Yueying: "Go and invite Mother Zhou."

Nanny Zhou is very old, if she hadn't waited for Princess Ning Xin to reach Ji, she would have left the palace to be raised by now.

"I've seen the princess." Madam Zhou's legs and feet were not good, her body wobbled when she saluted, and she was immediately supported by Princess Ning Xin.

Princess Ning Xin said: "How many times have I said that in my palace, Mother Zhou doesn't have to salute me!"

Nanny Zhou smiled lovingly, "Courtesy cannot be changed. The better the princess treats the old servant, the less the old servant can cause trouble for the princess. You call the old servant here now, but what changes have been made in Jiji etiquette?"

Princess Ning Xin waved to Yueying, Yueying nodded, took all the servants out of the hall, and closed the door intimately.

"Mommy, come with me." Princess Ning Xin helped Nanny Zhou into the inner room, and sat down next to Nanny Zhou, "Mommy, you have been in the palace for a long time, I have something to ask you."

"If the princess asks, this old servant will know everything." Nanny Zhou patted Princess Ning Xin's hand with a smile, "Don't say 'you' to this old slave, just call Nanny Zhou."

"Oh!" Princess Ning Xin ignored Zhou Nanny's cliché, pretending she didn't hear it, "Do you know... what happened in the palace during the twelfth lunar month? Especially... related to the white magnolia flower."

Speaking of this, Princess Ning Xin's eyes touched the incense sticks next to the magnolia flower branches, and the bright red under the incense sticks, she couldn't help but frowned, "Many people may die... a big event."

Nanny Zhou's smiling eyes changed, and the hand that was on Princess Ning Xin's arm moved away stiffly, "This old slave is getting old, what is the princess you want to ask...? Why didn't this old slave understand?"

Princess Ning Xin grabbed Nanny Zhou's hand, "No, you understand, Mammy, otherwise you wouldn't be like this. This matter... is related to the father?"

She thought of Luo Xiyao's expression when she mentioned the twelfth lunar month, and asked hastily: "Or is it related to the emperor's grandmother? This matter should not only happen in the twelfth lunar month, but also related to this year. This matter is also very taboo for the emperor's grandmother, so taboo to the point of future I originally moved the Jiji Ceremony in the twelfth lunar month to May!"

"What is the princess talking about?" Nanny Zhou avoided Princess Ning Xin's gaze, her voice was a little tense, "Your birthday ceremony was originally in March, but spring came late today, and winter refused to leave. You put on the seven-color brocade dress that you have been thinking about so much that you set the wedding ceremony in May!"

"No." Princess Ning Xin shook her head.

She didn't care about Jiji ceremony originally, and even hoped that Jiji ceremony would be delayed as soon as possible.

Because she likes to be in Zhangzhou with Helan.

But she also knew that she couldn't be with Helan Linzhang.

Princess Ningxin has tested Queen Mother Yang many times, but Queen Mother Yang never delivered her words once.

She knew that this must be what her father and grandmother had said, otherwise, according to the emperor's grandmother's temperament, she would definitely be fulfilled, and then she would try every means to keep Helan Linzhang in Dongqi. protected her.

But her father refused!
That day she fell asleep at Empress Dowager Yang's place, and vaguely heard the noble concubine mentioning whether the ceremony of the twelfth lunar month would displease His Majesty, but Ning Xin didn't care at that time.

Now that I think about it, it's even more wrong.

Otherwise Luo Xiyao wouldn't mention it.

So the movement of Shuyunxuan...is it also related to this matter?

What did Luo Xiyao discover?
"This matter is very important, but it's not that important. Otherwise, the emperor's grandmother would not forget it, but when the imperial concubine mentioned it, the emperor's grandmother remembered it. Even the queen mother didn't want anyone to mention it... They were all worried that they would offend their father. The emperor is not happy! That is to say..."
