The assassin's princess is actually my aunt

In less than a day, everyone who was interested knew about it.

Prince Sheng Qian Wushang brought back a woman from Jianghu and doted on her.

He even drove his childhood sweetheart, Princess Liuyun, out of the palace for her.

Although Qian Wushang had rarely been in Fengyao in the past ten years, he had led 400,000 Thunder Breaking Troops and fought on the battlefield for more than ten years.

Even if the emperor disliked Prince Sheng, he took back some of his military power on the first day he returned to Beijing.

However, no one can match Po Leijun's respect for Qian Wushang.

Now the six countries are stable, all of them have stopped fighting to cultivate themselves and raise their troops. Qian Wushang will definitely not leave in the short term when he returns to Fengyao this time.

Naturally, he became the object that all forces wanted to know. In recent years, the power of the crown prince and the second prince was balanced.

The fifth prince, the emperor's favorite, is also about to choose a wife. If he marries a wife who has a family to rely on, he will have a chance to compete for that position.

In such a clear situation, the most worrying thing is the sudden emergence of uncertain forces.

If we are not careful, the existing situation will change, and Prince Sheng’s Mansion is the top priority.

Therefore, from the moment Qian Wushang stepped into Fengyao, many pairs of eyes were staring at him.

Of course, it also includes the Jingguo Mansion of Princess Liuyun, who has the greatest possibility of marrying into Prince Sheng’s Mansion.

Duke Jingguo is loyal to the emperor and a rare military leader, and is deeply loved by the emperor.

Princess Zhuxing is the princess of Guyue Country. Although Guyue Country is no longer as powerful as it was many years ago, it is still very powerful and should not be underestimated.

For the time being, everyone didn't pay much attention to Leng Xinmo, probably because they all had the same idea as Princess Zhuxing.

A woman in the martial arts world, with only her beauty, can at most become a favored concubine.

However, if the Jingguo Mansion and the Shengwang Mansion could break up, others would be happy to see it.

In Kunning Palace

"Mother, Wei Chen dotes on Princess Liuyun the most. I'm sure he will vent his anger for me this time and report my third brother to my father.

According to my son's opinion, we can take this opportunity to completely destroy the connection between the Jingguo Mansion and my third brother."

The person who spoke was Prince Qian Wuling of Qianyao.

Qian Wuling wore a white jade hair crown on his head and a black brocade robe embroidered with gold.

Even when facing his own mother, he still maintained a decent and noble demeanor.

Qian Wushang is cold and domineering, with an outstanding appearance. Qian Wuyu is as pretty as a jade crown, with a face like a peach blossom.

Qian Wuling is graceful and elegant, with a natural noble air.

The woman in the upper seat was wearing a golden phoenix robe with golden phoenixes and flying figures on her skirt.

She wore the Queen's nine-tailed phoenix hairpin in her hair. Her appearance was not extremely beautiful, but she was dignified and elegant.

The Crown Prince and Princess Mingxia beside him are both representatives of nobility and elegance in the royal family.

Princess Mingxia was already dignified and beautiful, but she still could not compare with the luxury and nobility of the Queen.

The queen's every move, every gesture, every step she takes, is a model for the royal family, as if her charm is engraved in her bones.

The Queen seemed not to have heard the Prince’s words and said, “The Crown Princess’ pregnancy is a big deal.

Although you already have a son and two daughters, they are illegitimate children after all, and cannot compare to the legitimate grandchildren of the emperor.

Take care of your backyard and don't indulge Yao too much. Your father and I both value the child in the Crown Princess' belly."

The Queen's words were not harsh, but they carried a sense of pressure. The Crown Prince thought that it was the Crown Princess who had complained to her mother.

Although he was dissatisfied, he did not dare to refute and just nodded his head in agreement.

The queen looked at her daughter standing beside her with a calm expression and said, "Mingxia is 18 this year. The emperor will choose a prince consort for you this year."

"Mother, Mingxia...Mingxia wants to accompany you for two more years." Princess Mingxia blurted out in panic when she heard the Queen's words.

"How dare you! Mingxia, you are the eldest princess, your father dotes on you and wants to keep you for two more years.

Otherwise, you would have chosen a husband and married out of the palace two years ago."

The Queen frowned at Princess Mingxia's slightly out-of-control behavior and reprimanded her in a low voice.

Princess Mingxia felt bitter when she met the Queen's disappointed look.

Was she favored by her father? She and her brother were taught by their mother to be dignified and noble since they were young.

You should not act like a spoiled child and should not compete for favor with your father, the emperor, and your behavior should not be unruly.

But why is it that my father is always cold to me, but indulges Mingyu in every way?

Two years ago, my father wanted to choose a prince consort for me. I mustered up the courage to tell him that I already had someone in my heart and hoped that he would agree to his wish.

She was full of expectations, but in the end, she never received the imperial decree granting the marriage.

He announced it just to show his favor to the king. He was reluctant to let his only two princesses get married and wanted to keep them for two more years.

She wanted to ask her father why he didn't agree to her request.

However, he was confined by his own mother and was not released until he stopped seeking answers.

Thinking of that extremely talented and brilliant man who seemed like a banished immortal, Mingxia felt a pang of pain in her heart.

How sad it is that as a princess, she cannot choose her own husband as she pleases.

"This year your royal grandmother is celebrating her sixtieth birthday, and I think she will be happy to see you all celebrating this happy occasion.

The Empress Dowager has not left Yide Palace for many years. No matter what happens this year, we should make her happy.

Your father has always been filial, and you, as his children, should also be filial."

"Yes, mother..."

"Yes, mother..."

The prince looked at Princess Mingxia with a little worry.

Princess Mingxia smiled bitterly and shook her head gently to indicate that she was fine.

Zhang, who was beside the queen, came in from outside the palace and whispered something in the queen's ear.

The queen lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then ordered the crown prince and Princess Mingxia to leave first.

After the Crown Prince and Princess Mingxia left, he turned aside and asked, "Who did Concubine Lan take a fancy to?"

Nanny Zhang bowed her head slightly and said, "She is the granddaughter of the Gu family, the Princess Changning, from the General's Mansion.

Your Majesty, the three sons of the Duke of Fuguo all died on the battlefield for Qian Yao.

Only his only son Gu Jingxuan and Princess Changning were left.

Although the Duke of Fuguo is old, his prestige in the army is still immeasurable.

In addition, the emperor felt that he owed the Prince's Mansion and showed it great favor.

At the age of eighteen, Gu Jingxuan was already the governor of the Nine Gates and the commander of the right wing battalion. He had a bright future.

He even conferred the title of Princess Changning on his granddaughter.

I think Concubine Lan wanted to ask for Princess Changning to marry Prince Yuyu because of Gu Jingxuan and the reputation of the Duke of Fuguo. "

After hearing what Nanny Zhang said, the Queen gently turned the armor in her hand.

"Prince Sheng is 25 years old this year. His sister, the imperial concubine, died young. As her mother, I have the responsibility to remind the emperor to grant him a marriage."

Nanny Zhang looked at the Queen in surprise, not understanding why her mistress didn't care about Concubine Lan's proposal for the Fifth Prince to marry Princess Changning.

Instead, she was concerned about Prince Sheng's marriage. But after all, she had been with the Queen for many years and knew that the Queen was smart.

Of course there was a reason for such an arrangement, so he said nothing more and followed the Queen to Chengqian Palace.

Cheng Qiangong

The man in the golden dragon robe slowly tasted the golden bird's nest on the table:

"My beloved concubine's hands are still so skillful. This golden bird's nest stew is much better than the one in the imperial kitchen."

The man was Qian Yuzhen, the emperor of Qianyao Kingdom. Emperor Qianyao looked to be only in his thirties.

He was elegant and steady, with a hint of imperial arrogance between his brows that could not be ignored. But at this moment, he looked at the beautiful woman in front of him with tenderness.

After hearing what Emperor Qianyao said, the woman's beautiful eyes suddenly turned and her lips raised proudly: "Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty.

Your Majesty likes the golden bird's nest stewed by me, so I am happy.

"I'll stew it for the emperor every day from now on, okay?"

Emperor Qianyao laughed, "I can't bear to see my beloved concubine suffer so much.

My beloved concubine, you came to see me today, do you have something to say?"

There was no trace of displeasure in the emperor's eyes as he looked at the teasing.

The woman glared with her beautiful eyes and said coquettishly, "Your Majesty! I just came to see you."

The only person who dared to speak to the current emperor like this was the favorite concubine, Concubine Zhou Lan.

Zhou Lanfei is passionate, beautiful, and proud.

Since entering the palace, she has always been favored by Emperor Qianyao. As a result, Concubine Zhou Lan has become extremely arrogant and even looks down on the Queen.

But since she was favored by the emperor and had given birth to the fifth prince, no one dared to say anything.

If Concubine Zhou Lan did not have a strong and powerful maternal family, the Fifth Prince would probably become the biggest opponent of the Crown Prince on his way to the throne.

Despite this, Emperor Qianyao's favor towards the Fifth Prince is unique among all the princes.

This still makes the crown prince and the second prince extremely wary. Concubine Zhou Lan, it seems that the emperor has almost finished eating.

He walked behind the emperor and stretched out his hands to massage his shoulders to relax him.

"Your Majesty, Ye'er is already 21 years old this year. I think it's time to find him a wife.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince and Prince Yi both married wives before they were twenty years old. What do you think?"

Emperor Qian Yao closed his eyes and said "hmm..." softly, not knowing what he was thinking.

Concubine Zhou Lan paused and continued, "I heard that the Fuguogong Mansion..."

"The Queen has arrived..."
