Su Cheng was stunned.

...

There were many people in the palace, and after they came out of Zhaoyang Hall, neither of them mentioned this matter again.

Su Cheng returned to the Central Plains after the huge blow, and Bai Xihe stayed in the palace.

Thinking of her father's expression before leaving, Su Xiaoxiao wanted to rebel for her father for a moment.

The Queen Mother hadn't seen Su Xiaoxiao for a while, knowing that she was coming today, she ate half a bowl more than usual for breakfast.

The two came to her bedroom.

The queen mother looked at her, and then at Wei Ting beside her, a flash of relief flashed in her eyes, as if her child had grown up and she had fulfilled a wish.

However, before she could speak to the two children, Eunuch Fu came over.

He passed on Emperor Jingxuan's will, and Xuanweiting went to the Jinluan Palace to meet the envoys.

The queen mother said to Wei Ting: "Go, don't make the envoys wait for a long time, and say that I, Da Zhou, have neglected them."

Wei Ting cupped his hands: "The minister resigns."

Wei Ting and Fu Gonggong went.

The queen mother smiled lightly: "You girl, you have a bit of Wangfu's ability."

"Huh?" Su Xiaoxiao was confused by these words.

The queen mother likes her dazed look, it always reminds her of Xiaohu, but in fact, this girl is extremely intelligent, so this occasional daze is very precious.

The queen mother said: "Wei Ting refused the emperor's offer of marriage to Hui'an, which angered the emperor. The emperor lost face. How long has it been since Wei Ting returned to Beijing? You can see that the emperor intends to let him return to the court? You two have big heads. After the wedding, Beiyan's envoys arrived. Although the Ai family did not go to the vestibule, they heard that Beiyan's envoys were very arrogant."

Su Xiaoxiao understood that Emperor Jingxuan asked Wei Ting to go to town.

Aren't you Beiyan arrogant? The appearance of Wei Ting also helped some people recall how they were defeated by Wei Ting in the first place.

The queen mother glanced at her, saw that she didn't react much, and then said: "This is a good thing. The emperor has neglected Wei Ting for so long, and suddenly let Wei Ting go back, and do things for him in a down-to-earth way. , should also benefit you."

"Well, can I follow suit?" Su Xiaoxiao looked forward to it.

Whether she likes this girl or not is all on the bright side. The queen mother has seen a lot of intrigue in the palace, and everyone wears a mask, including herself.

"Do you still get used to marrying into the Wei family?"

"Good."

Except that I will be sandbags for several sister-in-laws soon.

The queen mother said with emotion: "The Wei family is different from ordinary aristocratic families, there are not so many rigid and pedantic rules, and Yue Ange is not a temperament that likes to grind people."

Su Xiaoxiao: "Yue Ange?"

"Grandmother Wei Ting." The Queen Mother didn't want to mention the old Madam Wei, and changed the subject, "The children haven't entered the palace to see their 'father' for a while."

Both Xiaohu and Erhu had been here before, and she thought she would see Dahu soon, but who would have thought that the little ones would never come again.

Su Xiaoxiao smiled politely: "Qin Tianjian has been a little busy recently."

It can't be said that the three little guys have forgotten their father's room in the palace when they have a biological father. The first and third children go to the house every day to uncover tiles, and the old lady Wei is so angry that she grabs her crutches and chases after her.

The two princesses have gone to palace school for class, and they will come to Yongshou Palace for lunch at noon.

The Queen Mother left Su Xiaoxiao to play chess.

At noon, Princess Hui'an came in angrily, and Princess Jingning followed behind her unhurriedly. She didn't blame the younger sister for not knowing the rules and walking ahead of her.

"What's the matter?" asked the Queen Mother.

Princess Hui'an threw herself into the Queen Mother's arms aggrieved: "Grandmother, that Zhao Kangning is too hateful!"

Su Xiaoxiao greeted Princess Jingning.

Princess Jingning explained softly: "Princess Kangning of Beiyan."

Things have to start this morning.

The envoys went to the palace early to meet Emperor Jingxuan, and the men discussed important matters of the country. As a princess, Zhao Kangning had nothing to do, so she said to Emperor Jingxuan, "I heard that Da Zhou followed the example of the Western Jin Dynasty and opened a women's school. Isn't it? Can you allow Kang Ning to see a thing or two?"

Whatever Emperor Jingxuan could say, he naturally agreed.

As soon as Zhao Kangning went to the palace school, he snatched the seat of Princess Hui'an like no one else.

Considering that she is Beiyan's guest, Princess Hui'an endured it.

In the morning, it was "The Analects of Confucius" and "The Book of Songs". Princess Hui'an couldn't answer the teacher's questions. Zhao Kangning laughed at her in class as an idiot princess, not even a finger of Princess Jingning.

This made Princess Hui'an very angry.

Princess Hui'an was about to whip her, but was stopped by Princess Jingning.

"It's right to stop you." Hearing this, the queen mother poked her beautiful little forehead, "You can't beat him."

Zhao Kangning is not an ordinary princess, she is He Lianye's niece, she has practiced martial arts with He Lianye since she was a child, if Princess Hui'an fights with her, it is basically seeking her own death.

Su Xiaoxiao said: "This Zhao Kangning is not a good person."

Princess Jingning nodded: "I provoked the relationship between me and Hui'an as soon as I came here. Fortunately, Hui'an was not fooled."

Princess Hui'an is angry because she is not as good as Jingning. She is not as good at studying as Jingning. Does Zhao Kangning need to talk about it? She wants to defeat Jing Ning with her beauty!

She was angry that Zhao Kangning ridiculed her as an idiot.

Princess Hui'an stomped her feet: "Is that Zhao Kangning very good? Knowing a few lines of Analects is great? I didn't recite it... I will recite it casually later, isn't she better than her?"

Princess Jingning said: "She is Beiyan's No. 1 female scholar."

Princess Hui'an: "..."

Zhao Kangning is a legend of Beiyan.

Beiyan was not as open as the Western Jin Dynasty, and women were not allowed to take the scientific examination. So Zhao Kangning disguised herself as a man, replacing the identity of a collateral child of the Helian family, and went all the way to high school until he was named on the gold list.

Fake scientific research is a felony of beheading, but Zhao Kangning is the biological daughter of Emperor Beiyan. Emperor Beiyan only deprived her of her fame and demoted her to a commoner. Half a year later, she regained her status as a princess.

Su Xiaoxiao: Routine...it's all routine.

Su Xiaoxiao asked: "Since she is so good, why wasn't she the one who went to the Western Jin Dynasty to get married?"

Princess Jingning pondered: "She has the talent for governing the country, the Emperor Beiyan probably doesn't want to part with her."

Here, the two were talking, and on the other side, Princess Hui'an had finished her complaint.

Princess Hui'an took a look at Su Xiaoxiao, selectively lost her memory of her gaffe just now, and raised her chin high above her, "Are you here?"

Su Xiaoxiao said: "Yes, come and see the Queen Mother and the two princesses."

"This princess is very good." Princess Hui'an put her arms around her arms and asked arrogantly, "Brother Ting didn't bully you, did he?"

Su Xiaoxiao blew a rainbow fart: "Thanks to the princess, Wei Ting dare not."

Princess Hui'an smiled triumphantly: "I knew it!"

She felt better again.

She hugged the Empress Dowager's arm and said delicately, "Grandmother, I'm hungry!"

The queen mother glared at her angrily and amusedly: "Okay, okay, pass on the meal."

The three had lunch in the Empress Dowager's palace.

In the afternoon, the two princesses went to school. Su Xiaoxiao is only in the palace school now, and rarely goes to class. She plans to go back.

But before leaving the Empress Dowager's bedroom, the palace servants rushed to report: "The Empress Dowager! It's not good! Something serious has happened! Princess Hui'an... fell off her horse!"
