Konoha Hypocrite Uchiha Tonan

"unfortunately."

Zhao Man looked at him, blinked, and said, "I just came here when I saw you. What are you doing here?"

"I'm here..." Tangning looked around at the green palace walls and said, "I'm here to enjoy the scenery. The scenery here is not bad."

Fortunately, Zhao Man did not expose him again and asked: "How is your trouble? Has it been resolved?"

Tangning nodded and said, "Thank you for your concern, Princess. It has been resolved."

He looked in the direction of the palace entrance. Emperor Chen had just granted Xiaoyi a sixth-grade edict, and Xiaoru a seventh-grade edict. He was planning to go back and share it with them, but he didn't expect to meet Princess Yingying on the way.

Zhao Man looked at him and asked, "Are you in a hurry and want to go back?"

Tangning nodded and said, "It's something urgent."

Zhao Man thought for a while and said, "Then I'll take you out."

Tangning said hurriedly: "The princess has a noble status, how can she..."

Zhao Man waved her hand and said, "I want to take a walk anyway."

It was still some distance from the palace gate. Tang Ning and she were walking on the road. Zhao Man was a little strange today. He stopped talking and didn't talk. He seemed to have something on his mind. He lowered his head and kicked his steps.

Which girl is not worried at all? Maybe she encounters those inconvenient days every month, and she will be fine in a few days.

"Tang Ningning." Zhao Man was walking and suddenly turned to look at him.

"Huh?" Tangning was thinking about when Xiao Ru and Xiao Yi would be changed from imperial orders to royal orders, and she casually agreed.

Zhao Man asked in a daze: "Is your father good to you?"

"I don't have a father." Tangning looked at her and said, "I haven't seen my father since I was a child."

Only then did Zhao Man remember his life experience and apologized hastily: "Ah, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

"It doesn't matter." Tangning waved her hand, indicating that she didn't care.

Compared with the sarcastic and mocking looks or deliberately teasing words of her peers when she was in school, Zhao Yingying seemed to apologize sincerely from the bottom of her heart. For a moment, Tang Ning felt that despite being unruly, she was actually quite cute. .

"My mother-in-law also passed away when I was very young." Remembering that Tang Ning had the same life experience as her, Zhao Man looked at him with a look full of sympathy.

Tangning shrugged and said, "Princess and Your Majesty, Your Majesty is so kind to you."

Frankly speaking, he also felt that Emperor Chen doted on Zhao Yingying, even taking her with him when leaving the palace. Among all the princesses in the royal family, she was the only one who had this treatment.

"I accidentally heard my father and the Prime Minister discussing something that day." Zhao Man whispered: "My father wants to marry me to the Chu Kingdom."

Thinking of the words she heard while hiding behind the pillar that day, Zhao Man's eyes turned red.

Originally she wanted to surprise her father, but she ended up leaning against the pillar alone, in a daze until late at night.

"Ah?" Tangning looked at her and asked in surprise, "Is this happening?"

When the two countries Chen and Chu were in their honeymoon period, it was not uncommon for them to marry each other's princesses. When the Chu State was still weak, when the Chen State princess married, she was the mother of the country. When the Chu State princess married over, her status was not low. Now The bloodlines of the two royal families have actually merged with each other. To a certain extent, Emperor Chen's blood also contains part of the bloodline of the Chu royal family.

When Tang Ning first threatened Zhao Man, she just casually said that there was a possibility of marrying her to the Chu Kingdom, but she didn't expect that this poisonous milk would actually take effect.

It turned out that Zhao Yingying was depressed because of this incident. Tangning looked at her and comforted her: "Actually, princess, there is no need to worry. Do you know who you are going to marry when you marry to the Chu Kingdom?"

Zhao Man shook his head and said, "I don't know."

Tang Ning explained: "Our Princess Chen mainly married to the Chu Kingdom, and she must marry the Chu Kingdom's prince. However, the current Chu Emperor has only one prince, the Chu Kingdom's Crown Prince."

Zhao Man glanced at her mouth and said, "I don't want to marry the prince of Chu."

"Princess, don't worry." Tang Ning explained to her carefully: "His Majesty will not let you be a concubine. However, the crown prince's concubine will be the queen of Chu State in the future, and her mother will honor the world. The current Chu State No longer weaker than the Chen Kingdom, does the princess think that the royal family of the Chu Kingdom will allow a foreign princess to be their queen?"

Zhao Man thought for a while, her eyes lit up, and she asked: "You mean, even if my father wants me to marry, the Chu State will not agree. In this way, I still don't have to marry!"

Tang Ning nodded. Unless the royal family of the Chu Kingdom had lost their minds. When the country's overall strength was rising and they were about to become the eldest brother, they would be willing to be subordinate to others and let a foreign princess become the queen. Since ancient times, this has only been the case for weak countries. approach that will be taken.

"Haha, I don't need to get married!" Zhao Man's mood instantly rose and she said, "Tang, I will send you here. You can go back by yourself. I want to go back to the palace to play mahjong!"

Tangning looked at her retreating figure and shook her head.

Women are indeed big pigs. When she was complaining about her grievances, she called him Tang Ning Ning. In the blink of an eye, she became "Tang Ning Ning." elder sister……

I was delayed for a while with Zhao Man on the way, and when I got home, the house was already fried.

The speed of the imperial edict was incredibly fast. The imperial edict to reward Xiaoyi and Xiaoru arrived at Tangning's house before Tangning did. Even his father-in-law and mother-in-law were alerted and rushed over.

Regardless of whether you are granted an official title or a title, you must have a salary. In recent years, the national treasury has been empty, and the court has been very stingy with rewards. Those who have not made great achievements will not be awarded. As for the rewards of imperial orders and edicts, they have not been awarded since the death of the queen more than ten years ago. , even rarer.

Qin Qi Shu Hua looked at the imperial uniforms they were wearing with envy on their faces. The maids and servants in the house were even more happy and proud.

"Ms. sir, you are back..."

Xiaoru and Xiaoyi walked up to him, still a little at a loss. Tangning patted the back of their hands gently and said, "My husband earned these for you, so don't worry and accept it."

Looking at the imperial uniform on his daughter, Chen Yuxian glanced at Zhong Mingli cryptically. Zhong Mingli lowered his head and whispered: "It will happen in the future, it will happen in the future..."

From today on, Xiaoru and Xiaoyi have truly entered the ranks of destined wives. When Tangning is promoted, their grades will also rise accordingly.

Tang Yaoyao stood aside with her sword in her arms and watched the excitement. At a certain moment, she walked up to Tang Ning and whispered, "Their clothes are very beautiful. When will you give me a suit too?"

Tang Ning spent a lot of time before she made it clear to Tang Yaoyao that these two pieces of clothing were not given away just because she wanted to.

Only married women who were rewarded by the imperial court could wear it. Anyone else who wore it would be over the limit and would be arrested and imprisoned.

Unless she can marry well like Xiao Ru and Xiao Yi, but this possibility is very small. After all, these days, there are not many good families like this.

Qian Shangshu gave him a long vacation, but he still had to go to the Ministry of Revenue today. In addition to packing his things, he also had to go through the leave application procedures.

Fang Zhe is not here, only Han Shilang is on duty.

Han Ming looked at the paper in his hand and said in surprise: "Mr. Tang, you want to take such a long sick leave?"

Tang Ning nodded and said, "I feel unwell. Go home and rest for some time."

"Master Tang is the pillar of the country, and his health is very important." Han Ming signed his name on the paper and said: "Have not congratulated Master Tang yet, the two ladies have been granted the title. Since the death of the empress, your majesty has rarely seen To be granted the title of married woman again shows His Majesty's favor towards Master Tang..."

Tang Ning looked at the lunch box on Han Ming's table. In the box were steamed buns and pickles.

He looked at Minister Han and said in surprise: "Master Han, is this what you are going to eat for lunch?"

Han Ming nodded and asked, "What's wrong?"

Tang Ning shook her head and said, "I didn't expect that Mr. Han, as the Minister of Household Affairs and in a high position, would be so frugal in his daily life. He is really a role model for our generation."

Han Ming smiled and said: "As an official, you must start from yourself. If the officials save some, the common people will have more."

"Master Han is diligent and thrifty, and I admire him for being so thrifty." Tangning nodded and said, "However, it doesn't hurt to be extravagant once in a while. Master Han should eat more good things these days..."
