After being reborn in the Mass Grave, she overturned her predecessor's power
Chapter 166 Interlocking
Gong Bi screamed in shock, and those who didn't know would think that she had done something to Helian Qing.
Jiang Xue Ning couldn't help but feel a headache. Helian Qing was obviously looking for trouble for her. The Queen Mother was already dissatisfied with her, and now she could take the opportunity to punish her openly.
Just as the chaos was going on, a heroic woman walked in, "Is the Princess of Qingzhou here?"
"I am."
The woman smiled and said, "The princess wants to see the princess."
Jiang Xue Ning looked in the mirror, straightened her dress, and followed the woman without looking back. As for Helian Qing, the delicate princess would be fine after a little dizziness.
The Princess Protector of the Nation was staying in the quiet Changning Palace, and it took almost half of the palace to get there. The woman walked very fast, and it was obvious that she was a martial artist. Fortunately, she could keep up.
After entering Changning Palace, the woman lifted the door curtain for her and said, "Princess, please."
Jiang Xue Ning went in again and was met with a pair of sharp eyes. Although the eldest princess was not young anymore, she still looked energetic and vigorous, and one could vaguely see some of her former elegance.
"Xue Ning meets the eldest princess."
The princess was distracted for a moment as she looked at her face. After a while, she said, "Good girl, there's no need to be polite."
Jiang Xue stared at her white hair and couldn't help but sigh that the female general who was once invincible on the battlefield had finally grown old.
The eldest princess had a thousand words to say, but in the end she said nothing and just pushed a box to her.
The box contained a pair of crystal clear jade rings made of white jade, which were obviously worth a fortune.
"This is a gift to you and Chaoyan. I hope your lives will be linked together and never separated."
Jiang Xue Ning accepted it with deep emotion, "Thank you, Princess."
The princess took a sip of tea and spoke earnestly, "Live a good life with Zhao Yan after you get married, and stay away from this place of trouble."
She lowered her eyes and replied "yes", but her expression showed a bit of stubbornness.
"You look too much like Mingyue. I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing."
The princess was lost in memories. Among all the young people back then, she admired Gu Mingyue the most. She was ultimately unable to stop the massacre, and she withdrew from Shengjing and ignored worldly affairs since then.
It is disappointment with the world and even more so with the powerlessness towards the royal family.
Jiang Xue Ning said, "Thank you for this matter, Princess."
The eldest princess had contributed a lot behind the scenes to Helian Xuan giving in so quickly.
"This is the first time that Zhao Yan has begged me." The eldest princess said with relief, "He is such a proud person in his bones, and he is willing to bow his head for you. It shows that he really has you in his heart."
This way she can rest assured, she has no children in her life. Living to this day, the people around her have left one by one, and the one she can't let go of the most is Shen Zhaoyan.
As the two were chatting, the head maid from the Queen Mother's Palace came over and said, "This servant greets the Princess and the County Lord."
The eldest princess asked unhappily, "What's the matter, Queen Mother?"
"The Ninth Princess fainted in Weiyang Palace, and the Queen Mother wants to summon the Princess to question her."
"Sure enough, it's here."
The eldest princess patted her hands and said, "Go ahead."
The imperial decree to grant the marriage had already been issued, and the empress dowager did not dare to go too far and embarrass the emperor.
Jiang Xue Ning followed him to the Cining Palace in silence. As soon as she entered, she was questioned by the Queen Mother, "What did you do to Qingqing?"
A teacup flew straight at her head. She moved aside to avoid it, and the cup of hot tea fell at her feet and broke on the ground.
Her eyes flickered slightly. If she was really hit, she could only think that she was unlucky. After all, she was the queen mother. She was just too distressed for the ninth princess and was furious for a moment. It was completely understandable.
This is like asking her to swallow her bitter pill and not be able to express her pain.
She knelt down and greeted, "Greetings, Her Majesty the Queen Mother."
"Humph, my Jiu'er was fine this morning, but she fainted after visiting you. You must give me an explanation."
The Queen Mother didn't want to embarrass her in public, as that would be low-class. But she was very dissatisfied with the marriage. She felt slapped in the face. Everyone knew that she wanted Shen Zhaoyan to be her husband, but now he was snatched away.
What made her even more unhappy was that the Princess Protector of the Nation was meddling in this matter behind the scenes. She never liked strong princesses.
In addition, Helian Qing fainted, so she decided to teach Jiang Xue Ning a lesson.
After all, she was her mother-in-law before, and Jiang Xue Ning knew the Queen Mother's character to some extent. She was going to deal with her.
Jiang Xue Ning said, "I don't know what happened to the princess. We had a good chat and she even treated me as her sister-in-law."
The Queen Mother knew that she was very cunning and good at talking, so she didn't waste time talking to her and said directly, "Since you don't know, kneel down and reflect on yourself."
After the Queen Mother left, she just knelt in the palace, with a palace maid supervising her.
She knelt calmly. The most important thing for her now was to escape from this damn palace. Being able to get out alive would be the greatest victory.
The sky outside was getting darker and darker. She felt numb from kneeling on the ground, and she was cold and hungry.
Until the sky was completely dark, Mid-Autumn came.
"Your Majesty has ordered me to escort the princess out of the palace."
Jiang Xue Ning gritted her teeth and slowly stood up. Zhong Qiu's eyes flashed with worry, but he didn't show it.
"The palace gate is about to close, let's go."
Jiang Xue Ning limped out of the Cining Palace. Qing He was waiting outside the door holding a bundle.
Seeing her like this, he immediately rushed over to support her, "Princess, are you okay?"
"It's okay, let's go."
After walking a long way, Zhongqiu finally sighed, "His Majesty said that it would be good to let the Queen Mother deal with you."
Lights were on everywhere in the palace, and they walked side by side in the night. The gentle night breeze made people feel dazed.
Jiang Xue Ning felt very upset, "This palace is not worth your stay."
Zhongqiu chuckled, "For a long time I lived like a zombie, but I never thought about dying, because I knew that their spirits in heaven must want me to live."
Until she lost her innocence due to some accident, the fire of revenge in her heart was ignited.
Not only does she want to stay alive, but she also wants to be Helian Xuan's bedmate. Although it is dangerous to seek the skin of a tiger, it is also the most likely way to pierce the heart of the emperor and achieve revenge.
This is her motivation to live. She has to do something so that she can see her old friends after she dies.
The matter has come to this, and it is useless to say more.
Jiang Xue Ning said seriously, "You must live well and wait for me."
Wait for her to come back and pick her up, leave here and start her own life again.
Zhongqiu stood under the palace lanterns, smiling until her eyes turned red. "Okay, I will definitely stay alive and wait for the princess to come back."
"I wish the princess all her wishes come true and she will be safe every year."
She was afraid every day Jiang Xue Ning spent in the palace, fearing that she would follow the same path as Princess Chen. Fortunately, she was really able to leave this cage this time.
"Princess, let's go."
Jiang Xue Ning looked at her deeply and walked out of the palace gate.
Zhongqiu stood there and watched her leave. She recalled the scene many years ago when she watched Gu Mingyue go to war.
Go away, and never come back once you leave.
Princess, please be free...
