Your second brother was dumped.
Su Xiaoxiao stared at her dodging eyes seriously: "Don't change the subject, what's going on?"
Princess Hui'an whispered, "I just wanted to come and see you."
Su Xiaoxiao looked at her doubtfully: "That's it?"
Princess Hui'an pouted and said, "And I don't want to get married. You don't know, not long after you and Brother Ting left the capital, my father arranged a marriage for me that I didn't like."
Su Xiaoxiao asked: "So you are running away from your marriage?"
Princess Hui'an was a little angry: "That's because you're not here. What if I get married and you come back and can't find me? And I'm also worried about you... I'm worried that you're not living well in Southern Xinjiang... I heard that the people in Southern Xinjiang are all barbarians... cruel and inhumane..."
Su Xiaoxiao: "It's not that exaggerated..."
“Ahh—”
As Princess Hui'an spoke, she suddenly felt aggrieved.
She raised her voice and cried loudly to the sky.
One of them dressed up as a girl, and the other dressed up as a young man, but in the end it was the young man who was crying.
This is quite intriguing.
Everyone looked at him strangely.
Su Xiaoxiao took her wrist and led her to her carriage.
Su Xiaoxiao ordered the driver: "Keep an eye on them, don't let anyone get close."
The driver responded, "Yes, young lady."
"Why does he call you Miss?" Princess Hui'an asked while sobbing.
"It's just a name. Tell me about you. What's going on?"
"You are still mean to me..." Princess Hui'an couldn't stop crying.
"I don't……"
Su Xiaoxiao was speechless and tried to coax Xiaohu... There was no other way, Xiaohu was the crybaby in the family, so she wiped the tears and handed snacks to this princess, and finally coaxed her into stopping crying.
Princess Hui'an explained the whole story.
It turned out that Nanjiang came to propose marriage again.
Emperor Jingxuan originally disdained the barbarian tribes in southern Xinjiang and would never marry his precious princess to them.
But as Qin Canglan's battle line at the border pushed into the heart of Northern Yan, Emperor Jingxuan began to feel uneasy.
He issued several imperial decrees to summon Qin Canglan back to the court, but all fell on deaf ears.
The question is that when a general is away from home, he may not obey the orders of his king.
He cut off Qin Canglan's food supply, but Qin Canglan had plenty of military pay left by Su Xiaoxiao and didn't need his food supply at all.
Qin Canglan was one of the most powerful supporters of Emperor Jingxuan. If even he was out of control, how could Emperor Jingxuan sit on the throne securely? He could not directly dismiss Qin Canglan, fearing that it would cause a mutiny at the border.
At this time, Nanjiang proposed marriage for the second time and offered a very tempting sincerity - military force.
After the marriage of the Qin, Su and Wei families, only the Leng family was left standing in Emperor Jingxuan's camp, but all the people of the Leng family were almost killed by Qin Canglan.
Emperor Jingxuan felt like a thorn in his side, so he decided to drive the tiger to devour the wolf.
Su Xiaoxiao frowned and said, "This is like inviting a wolf into the house! My grandfather never coveted that position. He only wanted to protect the people of the Great Zhou. If Beiyan is not killed, the border will not be at peace. We must teach Beiyan a bloody lesson to ensure the stability of the border for the next twenty years."
Twenty years of recuperation will allow the people living in the border areas to live a good life and save more soldiers from the suffering of war.
To put it bluntly, this generation makes heroic sacrifices just for the sake of peace and prosperity for future generations.
Princess Hui'an choked up and said, "My third brother said the same thing, but father would not listen and even locked him up."
The reason why he cared about Xiao Chonghua was probably not just because Xiao Chonghua spoke for Qin Canglan, but most likely because he was preventing his son from doing something to destroy the marriage between the two countries.
Su Xiaoxiao: "Then, how did you leave Beijing?"
Princess Hui'an: "I told my father that I wanted to go to the temple to accompany my grandmother before I left. After I married to Southern Xinjiang, I would never see her again. My father agreed, and I escaped halfway... It was quite smooth. Not long after I left the capital, I ran into your fourth cousin. I asked him if he knew where you were in Southern Xinjiang. He said he knew, and said he promised you to protect me, so he came with me. Don't blame him, I insisted on coming to find you."
Su Xiaoxiao: Why do I feel like he "kidnapped" you? The spy chief is very bad.
Su Xiaoxiao asked, "Did he participate in the Spring Examination?"
Su Xiaoxiao asked in a parent's tone: "What place did you get in the exam?"
Princess Hui'an shook her head and said, "I don't know. We left the capital before the Xingbang results came out. Let's not talk about me. Let's talk about you. When did you come to the capital of Southern Xinjiang? Why did you disguise yourself like this? You're so ugly."
Princess Hui'an only admitted that there were two people in the world who were more beautiful than herself, one was Bai Xihe, and the other was her little follower.
It's a pity that the little follower has no idea of her own beauty.
Su Xiaoxiao said: "It's a long story. I'm in a hurry to do something now. Where do you live? I'll take you back."
"don't want!"
Princess Hui'an refused without hesitation.
It was hard to find a little follower, but she refused to leave.
Su Xiaoxiao asked, "Aren't you afraid that Su Xuan will be worried if he can't find you?"
Princess Hui'an thought about it and felt that it made sense. Su Xuan had followed her on the long journey to southern Xinjiang and it was already hard enough. If she made him worry again, it would be too much.
Princess Hui'an said, "I have an appointment with him to wait for him at the rice cake shop. I will leave a message for the boss."
Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and asked, "Which rice cake shop do you often go to?"
Princess Hui'an nodded: "Yes."
It seems that the rice cake shop, like Deng Huan’s coffin shop, is also the base of the spy chief.
…
The rice cake shop's business was so-so, not too crowded, but not too deserted either.
It's breakfast time now and business in the shop is pretty good.
A few grown men were annoyed by the noisy lobby and wanted to go upstairs.
The waiter stopped them and said with a smile: "We don't do business upstairs."
As they were talking, a man in white holding a folding fan slowly walked up the stairs.
"Then how did he get up there?"
"That's right! We are guests too, so why can't we go up?"
The waiter said politely, "Please calm down, sirs. He is not a guest, but the owner of this shop."
"Boss?"
"How old is that kid? Are you kidding us?"
The waiter hurriedly said, "No, no, he is really our boss!"
Several grown men sat back down cursing.
The man went to the accounting office on the second floor.
He just pushed the door open a crack, then paused and quickly closed it.
Swish! An account book flew over and got stuck in the crack of the door.
"stop!"
Su Xiaoxiao walked over from the chair.
The man took a deep breath, took the account book reluctantly, and pushed the door open.
He pretended not to understand, looked at the disguised face of someone, and asked softly, "Excuse me, who is this girl?"
Su Xiaoxiao: "I'm your sister!"
Su Xuan: “…”
The doubling has started, and there is no upper limit. You can now vote for monthly tickets that you could not vote for before.
In the last few days of the month, let’s try to clear all the monthly tickets.
