Heavy, all gold.

He hesitated for a while, but finally talked to Su Xiaoxiao.

It turned out that this Empress Dowager was the niece-in-law of the late emperor.

The late emperor's elder brother had three sons in total, the eldest son was also the legitimate son, and naturally inherited the position of crown prince.

However, this legitimate son had been weak since childhood, and had grown up in a state of illness, making him incapable of governing the country.

Before Emperor Jingyuan passed away, he entrusted his son to his younger brother, the previous emperor, and appointed the previous emperor as regent, who acted as regulator of the country.

After Emperor Jinghui ascended the throne, he fell ill every other day. The enemy countries were eyeing him covetously and constantly launched wars on the border.

The former emperor, who was the regent at the time, went to war on behalf of the emperor, conquering the south and the north to pacify the world.

Emperor Jinghui was frail and had no children. He also refused to adopt a prince from a side branch. Before his death, he issued an imperial decree to let his uncle, the regent, inherit the throne.

The Empress Dowager was the successor of Emperor Jinghui. At that time, Emperor Jinghui had already run out of energy, so she entered the palace to bring good luck to him.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Jinghui passed away within a few days.

That year, she had just turned thirteen years old and was clearly a little girl who knew nothing. She became a queen without knowing it, and before she even had sex, she became a queen mother without knowing it.

The previous emperor was emperor for two years and then passed away. The fourth prince ascended the throne and became the current emperor - Emperor Jingxuan.

Emperor Jingxuan reigned for seventeen years, and at most the Empress Dowager was only in her early thirties.

"Grand Empress Dowager!"

Along with a delicate voice, a young girl in a pink gauze corseted dress ran out from the Qilin Palace.

Because of her call, the Empress Dowager's phoenix sedan stopped.

Eunuch Sun continued to explain to Su Xiaoxiao: "That is Princess Lingxi, who is very much loved by the Empress Dowager."

Su Xiaoxiao looked at her, then looked at the Qilin Palace not far away, and asked, "Is she also here to be the princess's companion?"

"Yes." said Eunuch Sun.

Su Xiaoxiao asked curiously, "I didn't see her take the exam yesterday."

Eunuch Sun smiled and said, "Ah, Princess Lingxi doesn't have to take the exam. She has a place given by the Empress Dowager."

Su Xiaoxiao: "Oh, I see."

A person with connections.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Princess Lingxi again.

Since she is a relative of mine, I have to remember what she looks like.

At this moment, the Empress Dowager on the phoenix sedan turned around and gave Princess Lingxi a gentle smile.

Su Xiaoxiao's expression suddenly paused.

These eyebrows...

She blinked and wanted to take another look, but Princess Lingxi had already circled in front of the phoenix sedan chair and the Empress Dowager had also turned her head away.

Su Xiaoxiao stared at the Empress Dowager's back in a daze.

Did she miss Ms. Li too much? Or did she feel guilty for not thinking about her for too long, so much so that she caught a glimpse of her in the features of a stranger.

The sedan stopped at the gate of Qilin Hall, and Eunuch Sun took Su Xiaoxiao to the spacious and bright classroom.

There are eight long tables in the classroom, arranged in four rows.

No one sat in the first row, and there were two tables in the three rows behind. The tables were very low, and the daughters sat on cushions.

Qin Yanran sat in the second row on the left. The daughter of the Leng family sat in the same row, but not at the same table with Qin Yanran. She sat on the right.

It seems that Miss Hong, who played chess with Su Xiaoxiao last time, lost, and Su Xiaoxiao did not see her.

Su Xiaoxiao found an empty seat and was about to sit down when the young lady next to her said, "Someone is here."

Su Xiaoxiao went to another row and got the same answer.

No one wanted to sit with her.

Su Xiaoxiao simply turned around and went straight to the first row and sat at the long table on the left.

Everyone gasped!

Something's wrong.

This fat girl from the countryside is in big trouble! She really has no sense! No one dares to sit in the first row, and she doesn't want to think about why? "See, I said she was stupid."

"Hush, keep your voice down."

The daughters in the back row were whispering.

Qin Yanran lowered her eyes and flipped through a collection of poems she had brought with her, as if she heard nothing.

Soon, Princess Hui'an came over.

Emperor Jingxuan had specifically reminded her that once she entered the palace she would be just a student and not regard herself as a princess.

Even so, how many people really don't treat her as a princess? Everyone fell silent.

Princess Hui'an glanced at the seats in the front row and saw a strange fat girl sitting there. She did not express any opinion and sat at the right table in the first row.

Since ancient times, the left has been the most respected, and Princess Hui'an knew very well that the position of left one belonged to Jingning.

But she wouldn't care if others dared to compete with Jingning for the position.

How could the daughters know her thoughts? They just thought that the little fat girl was very lucky and escaped the wrath of Princess Hui'an.

Almost the whole class had arrived, but Princess Jingning was late.

There was a reason why she was late: she had acne on her face again.

She was plain-looking to begin with, and with all those acne on her face, she looked simply unbearable to look at.

She wore a veil and a forehead ornament, which managed to cover most of her face, but it was not comfortable.

Princess Hui'an smiled with glee: "Oh, you have a bump on your face again? How many times has this happened this year?"

Princess Hui'an had a flawless face and skin so smooth that even without applying any perfume, it was so tender that you could squeeze water out of it.

Since her status was not as high as Jingning's, she attacked with her appearance.

Princess Jingning glanced at her coldly: "Say another word and I'll smack your mouth!"

Princess Hui'an snorted, "How dare you!"

Princess Jingning stepped forward and said, "See if I dare to do that!"

"The Master is here!"

A priceless reminder.

The two princesses temporarily ceased fighting. Princess Hui'an rolled her eyes and turned away.

Princess Jingning came to her seat.

To her surprise, there was someone sitting in the seat.

The desk in the classroom was a long table that could seat two people, but Jingning and Hui'an were princesses, so they each had a desk.

This is tacit understanding.

Princess Jingning recognized this daring little girl as the "poor little thing" who was isolated yesterday.

Is she sitting here... trying to show her kindness to me? Because I lent her the sedan chair yesterday?

Come to think of it, the little girl is quite pitiful.

After all, I am a princess of a country. No matter how those people criticize me behind my back, they dare not let me suffer in public.

Unlike this little girl, who was bullied by several eunuchs on her first day in the palace—

It is reasonable for her to come and seek her protection.

Princess Jingning, who lacks friends, automatically imagined a whole lot of Su Xiaoxiao's inner drama.

The young ladies who were waiting for Su Xiaoxiao to be taught a lesson just watched Princess Jingning sit down next to Su Xiaoxiao.

No temper at all.

Everyone was stunned.

The Master came in with a book.

Princess Jingning calmly flipped open the book on the table and said, "Your Highness has approved it."

Su Xiaoxiao looked confused.

What's right? Is she talking to herself?

Good morning
