"Father, don't worry, I will do my best to save Mrs. Cheng." After a pause, Su Xiaoxi continued: "Of course, I also need your help, father."

"What do you want Father to do?" Nangong Chen wondered.

"Give me five thousand Jingwei." Su Xiaoxi said straightforwardly.

"Where can we find so many Jingwei in such a short period of time?" Nangong Chen frowned, "What's more, do you know that these people are carefully selected and it takes a lot of effort to train them."

"Father, if you can't even agree to this condition, then there is nothing Xiaoxi can do." Su Xiaoxi was determined.

Nangong Chen stared at Su Xiaoxi with an eyebrow, as if he was judging whether she was really sure.

But soon, Nangong Chen nodded, "Okay, father, I promise you!"

Su Xiaoxi didn't expect Nangong Chen to be so happy. She originally thought it would take a lot of effort, but she didn't expect...

She liked this ending.

"Thank you, Father, please go slowly."

Su Xiaoxi bowed respectfully to Nangong Chen.

Nangong Chen waved his hand, "You're welcome."

"Yeah." Su Xiaoxi responded, then took a few steps back.

Looking at Nangong Chen's retreating figure, Su Xiaoxi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Nangong Chen agreed. If he refused, Su Xiaoxi really didn't know how to deal with it.

However, these are all things for later. Su Xiaoxi returned to the room, changed out of her clothes, lay down on the bed, and closed her eyes.

That night, I didn't sleep peacefully.

The next morning, when Su Xiaoxi woke up, she was called by the nanny sent by Concubine Hui.

"Miss Xiao Xi, Concubine Hui has ordered your servants to help you dress up. The queen invites you to have breakfast together." Mammy said gently, with a kind smile on her face.

Su Xiaoxi nodded after hearing this.

Immediately, grandma took Su Xiaoxi to Fengqi Palace. When passing by the entrance of the imperial study room, Su Xiaoxi saw Nangong Che again.

Nangong Che was still wearing a dragon robe, looking much more majestic than usual.

However, Su Xiaoxi didn't understand, where were they going today?

But soon, Su Xiaoxi understood.

The envoy from Beirong sent Princess Xue Ling over for the purpose of getting married to Nangong Che.

Last night, Princess Xue Ling was brought into Fengqi Palace, but she was not seen all night. Today, she looked much haggard, as if she had been wronged.

"Xue Ling paid homage to His Majesty Daning and met the Queen."

Xue Ling lowered her head and saluted Nangong Chen and the Queen.

Nangong Chen only glanced at it and then withdrew his gaze.

Su Xiaoxi, on the other hand, looked at Xue Ling with great interest.

"Get up! Give me a seat." Nangong Chen said to Xue Ling in a calm voice.

"Thank you, Your Majesty Daning, and thank you, the Queen."

Xue Ling thanked her again and then slowly stood up and sat on one side.

Su Xiaoxi stood beside Nangong Che, looking at the two people in front of her with a hint of joking in her eyes.

She can be sure that Nangong Che must be mentally broken now!

"How old is Princess Xue Ling this year?" Su Xiaoxi suddenly asked, her tone sounding calm and without waves, as if it was just a casual conversation.

Princess Xue Ling had never noticed anything strange about Su Xiaoxi at this time, but when she heard Su Xiaoxi suddenly asked this question, she looked at Su Xiaoxi in surprise.

"17 years old." Xue Ling replied.

"She is very beautiful, and she matches my imperial brother very well." Su Xiaoxi praised, but the smile in her eyes did not reach her eyes.

When Nangong Che heard Su Xiaoxi's name, he felt inexplicably panic, and he even forgot to refute or stop it.

"Thank you, Queen Mother, for the compliment." Xue Ling lowered her head shyly, her voice soft.

Although it was only a short exchange, Su Xiaoxi discovered that Princess Xue Ling was quite innocent, so it was no wonder she was blinded.

"However, does Princess Xueling know that men and women are not intimate with each other? It is really inappropriate for you to be so close to my royal brother."

Su Xiaoxi's words instantly caused Princess Xueling's cheeks to turn red.

"Xiao Xi, don't talk nonsense." Nangong Chen's reproachful voice reached Su Xiaoxi's ears.

But at this moment, a flash of astonishment flashed in Xue Ling's eyes.

"Haha." Su Xiaoxi laughed a little, then regained her composure, "I just think Princess Xue Ling is not suitable to be a daughter-in-law. After all, there are several beautiful concubines in my brother's harem."

Nangong Chen's expression changed slightly, "I told you not to interfere with the affairs of the harem."

"Father, are you worried that Princess Xueling's marriage to the imperial brother will cause disharmony in the harem?"

Nangong Chen was silent, obviously acquiescing.

"Since my father can't take care of it, Xiao Xi will naturally not interfere." Su Xiaoxi glanced at Xue Ling lightly.

Nangong Chen said nothing more.

Seeing this, Su Xiaoxi said nothing more and changed the subject.

"Since Princess Xue Ling is here, let's get familiar with the surroundings first." After saying that, Su Xiaoxi left the imperial study and walked towards Fengwu Hall.

Xue Ling looked up at Su Xiaoxi's back, with a hint of sinisterness in her eyes.

Who is this princess?Why were you so aggressive just now?

She clearly felt that the princess was hostile to her.

……

Su Xiaoxi took Princess Xue Ling around the palace all the way, because Su Xiaoxi and Xue Ling had met before, and this time Xue Ling did not make any cover-up.

However, Su Xiaoxi did not tell Nangong Chen about her whereabouts.

"Princess, where are we going?" Finally, Xue Ling couldn't help but ask.

"Go to eat!" Su Xiaoxi replied casually.

"..." Xue Ling was stunned.

Does this princess really not care about the marriage between Daning Dynasty and Beirong?

Xue Ling had never doubted the charm of the Crown Prince of Daning Kingdom, but all this was because the Crown Prince of Daning Kingdom's character was too boring.

But now, Xue Ling can't guarantee it.

"Princess, this is the Daning Palace." Xue Ling couldn't help but remind her.

Not everyone can enter the palace.

"I have my own plan, just keep up." Su Xiaoxi said, speeding up her steps, and Xue Ling had no choice but to follow closely, not daring to slack off at all.

Finally, after half a cup of tea, Su Xiaoxi stopped.

This is the side hall of Fengwu Hall, and the place where Su Xiaoxi stayed is the most remote corner of Fengwu Hall.

"Wait for me here, I will be out soon." After saying these words, Su Xiaoxi walked straight into Fengwu Hall.

In Fengwu Hall, the palace maid quickly brought these dishes to the table, and Su Xiaoxi did not waste any of them.

When she saw the table full of dishes, Xue Ling's eyes flashed with shock.

These are her favorite dishes.

"Princess, please use it." When Xue Ling came back to her senses, Su Xiaoxi had already picked up the chopsticks to pick up the vegetables and put them in her mouth.

"Princess please." Xue Ling hesitated for a moment and then moved her chopsticks.

The princess didn't seem to be pretending, and she could tell that she was really hungry.

While thinking about it, Xue Ling continued to eat. She was not afraid that these vegetables were poisonous, so she didn't need to take precautions.
