Mrs. He followed Zhang out of He Ruolan's boudoir.
Seeing this, Su Xueruo hurriedly sat down on the edge of the bed with a concerned look on her face and took He Ruolan's hand.
"Sister, I went out to buy gouache earlier and saw Brother Ning returning to the Ning family.
He must be worried about you and came back to inquire about the news."
He Ruolan pulled her hand away: "Cousin, the Ning family is the Prince Consort's family, it's normal for him to come back.
Don't destroy my reputation and the reputation of the Prince Consort. If this gets to the Princess's ears, it will cause trouble."
He Xueruo looked at He Ruolan strangely.
This idiot doesn't seem so stupid anymore.
"Brother Ning has feelings for you, and you also have Brother Ning in your heart.
After this incident, Brother Ning will cherish you even more. You must persevere. One day, the clouds will clear and the moon will shine."
"Really? You're making me wait like this, what are you waiting for?
Will the eldest princess kill me one day? Even if I survive, I will suffer a miserable life and die alone?"
He Xueruo's eyes flashed, and then she smiled and said, "How could that be? The eldest princess attacked you this time, and the emperor knows about it. She probably won't dare to do it again next time."
"Cousin, are you very familiar with the eldest princess, so you know so much about her?"
He Xuerou waved her hands hurriedly: "How is that possible? I am of low status, how could I possibly be familiar with someone of the Princess's status?"
"Oh, I just asked casually. I'm sleepy and want to sleep for a while, so I won't accompany you anymore."
"Then I'll come see you later."
He Xueruo stood up, smiled and hurried away.
He Ruolan sneered and lay down.
In the past few years, Ning Changrong, who grew up with him, suddenly married the eldest princess. He was confused and held on to an obsession that he refused to let go.
During the few days when I was in a coma, I could hear things, and therefore I also heard some words that I couldn't hear normally.
For example, Second Aunt Zhang said that it would be better if she died, because if she died, the first wife would have no descendants, and everything in the first wife would belong to the second wife...
For example, He Xueluo boasted proudly, saying that she had only delivered some information to a relative who worked in the princess's mansion, and yet you were dealt with by the princess...
He Ruolan cursed herself inwardly, wondering how stupid she had been to think that her second aunt and cousin were only thinking of her best interests.
They wanted the eldest wife to have no descendants, so they took her property for granted. They really had a good plan!
The Princess's Mansion.
Liu Xuan returned to the Princess's Mansion again, closed the door, and began to worry about gains and losses again.
"Bizhu, that little bitch, she had one foot on the verge of death, how could she be so lucky as to be saved by the gods?
The most infuriating thing is that this princess has to thank her for not dying.
Otherwise, right now, this princess would be in the clan residence, enduring the seventy-two torture instruments."
Bizhu cautiously advised: "Princess, when I heard the emperor say that he would send you to the clan house, I was terrified.
From now on, we should not provoke her anymore. We should raise the young prince well, and the prince consort will gradually change his mind."
Liu Xuan gnashed her teeth and said, "If she behaves herself and stops dreaming of becoming a prince consort, I will spare her life.
Otherwise, even if she goes to the Imperial Clan Court, I will kill her first."
"Absolutely not. The princess is worth her weight in gold. It's not worth sacrificing her life for her. Think about the young master. What would happen if he lost his mother?"
When talking about her son, Liu Xuan finally calmed down.
"Where is the young master?"
The maid Bilian hurriedly replied, "The young master was clamoring for candied haws, so the prince consort personally took him to buy some."
"How long have you been gone?"
"It's been a while. I guess he'll be back soon."
Liu Xuan thought about various possibilities in her mind and became restless.
Just as I was about to get up and ask someone to look for him, I heard a child's voice coming from afar.
"Mother, mother, candied haws!"
"Xuan'er!" Liu Xuan hugged Ning Jingxuan who ran in.
Four-and-a-half-year-old Ning Jingxuan stuffed the candied haws in his hand into Liu Xuan's mouth: "Mom, eat it quickly, it's delicious!"
Seeing this, Ning Changrong waved to Bizhu and others, and Bizhu led the others out.
"He Ruolan and I are truly innocent. Our families are close, and we grew up together, so our relationship is closer than others.
You have to believe me and stop listening to other people's one-sided words and targeting her and her family.
For the sake of this family and Xuan'er, let's live a good life, okay?"
Liu Xuan's heart softened. "If you two are innocent, then why hasn't she married yet at the age of nineteen? Is she still unable to forget you and is waiting for you to reconcile?"
Ning Changrong suppressed his anger and said, "Whether she gets married or not is her own business, we have no right to interfere.
Besides, from the day I married you, she and I have nothing to do with each other.
But you, where did you hear about her?
If you believe what others say so much, aren't you afraid that they might want to break us up, or have other motives?"
Liu Xuan narrowed her eyes and said, "I'll trust you for now! For Xuan'er, I will also learn to change my temper."
The couple temporarily shook hands and made peace.
Kunning Palace.
Nangong Jiu vividly recounted what happened today.
After hearing this, Empress Chen and Liu Hao both sighed.
"I heard that Prince Consort Ning and Miss He are deeply in love, and the two families have secretly reached a consensus to get married as soon as Miss He reaches the age of 15.
As a result, Liu Xuan intervened, and Concubine Zheng Shu and Liu Zhi used some unknown means to force the Ning family to agree to the marriage, forcibly separating the two lovers.
Nangong Jiu frowned: "Could it be that they really still have feelings for each other, and that's why the Royal Aunt took action?"
Liu Hao shook his head: "Ning Changrong is not that kind of person. We used to play together often, so I know him better.
He may not be able to let go of that feeling, but he will never do anything out of line."
Empress Chen also agreed with Liu Hao's statement.
"Although Miss He couldn't let go and rejected many matchmakers who came to propose marriage, given the family traditions of Master He, she wouldn't do anything out of the ordinary."
Nangong Jiu was puzzled: "If the two of them abided by the rules, why would the Royal Aunt do such an extreme thing?"
Empress Chen smiled bitterly: "This is not the first or second time she has gone crazy.
I heard from the palace maids that they started quarreling not long after getting married, and often asked Concubine Zheng Shufei and her son to support her.
At first everyone tried to persuade me, but later they became numb.”
Nangong Jiu pinched his chin and fell into deep thought.
"Grandfather Emperor said that we need to find a permanent solution to this problem, so that they can live a good life and stop causing trouble for Miss He."
Nangong Yunxue commented with a smile.
"Women are more attentive and sensitive to the mood changes of the person next to them.
The eldest princess must have noticed that Prince Ning still had Miss He in his heart, and she was afraid that Prince Ning could not forget his old love, so she wanted to defend the marriage she had snatched by making a fuss.
When they finally realized that making a fuss wouldn't solve the problem, they went to extremes."
Empress Chen sneered, "She has been learning her mother's ways since she was little, snatching everything away, and then she feels uneasy even after she has snatched it away.
The second and third princesses suffered a lot from her when they were young."
Nangong Jiu laughed after hearing this: "I have a solution..."
