This competition ended quickly.
The result surprised everyone.
No one expected that Princess Xian'er, who had been so proud of her dominance, would be defeated by Rong Ming in just two moves.
"good!"
The emperor was very pleased and stood up and applauded.
"Marquis Rong, I never thought your brother would have such great martial arts skills!"
Rong Feng quickly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, thank you for your compliment. Rong Ming has been weak since childhood, and we've been training him in martial arts for years simply to strengthen his body. He was able to win today, presumably because he had the military order, which gave him no scruples. Otherwise, the previous young masters would have won long ago."
As expected of a subject, Rong Feng's few words won the emperor's heart.
"Marquis Rong is right. If we weren't concerned about her status as a princess, how could we Daning men be unable to defeat her?"
"Exactly. Look at Young Master Rong. He was just trying to save his life. He knocked the man down in just two or three moves."
"Others give in to her, but she still thinks she's so capable. What a joke."
…
There was a lot of discussion among the women.
Xian Xian'er rolled her eyes in anger.
The emperor also took this opportunity to vent his anger and pretended not to hear it.
Only Rong Ming knew that the reason he could win so easily must be related to the pill that Prince Jingling had just given him.
Xian Xian'er lost miserably and lost all her face, so she had no intention of causing trouble again.
After Jiang Li solved this hot potato, he instantly became lazy.
Gu Qingchen took the grapes from Jiang Li's hand, peeled them carefully, and fed them to Jiang Li. "Did you prepare the antidote in advance?"
Grapes were a rare commodity, especially the varieties presented as tribute to the palace, which were eaten with the skin.
Only Jiang Li kept peeling the fruit with her small hands. Gu Qingchen saw her eat two, then frowned, wiped her fingers, and went to eat something else. He knew she was a trouble-maker, but he didn't expect her to be so fussy about eating. He couldn't help but add, "You eat the rest, I'll help you peel it."
Jiang Li smiled happily, her eyes sparkling as she looked up and said, "Your Highness is so kind to me."
After swallowing the grapes with the seeds, Jiang Li said, "I saw through her little trick the first time I saw her. It's not an antidote, just an enhanced version of the tranquility pill. If Your Highness wants, I can give you a can."
However, rumors spread that the prince was not interested in women, so whether or not to use the Qingxin Pill was irrelevant. Jiang Li looked at her with a scrutinizing look. Although Gu Qingchen didn't know what she was thinking, he felt helpless when he saw her expression.
&&&
"princess."
When leaving the palace, Xue Rou hurried over to stop Jiang Li.
"mother."
Seeing the woman coming, Jiang Li got off the carriage.
"Today..." Xue Rou was about to explain something when she suddenly froze, "You, what did you call me?"
Jiang Li sighed inwardly, took a step forward and hugged Xue Rou, whispering in her ear, "Mom, I know, I know everything, you are my real mother."
"The prince said that you never gave up looking for me, but you just didn't expect that I would be in the capital all these years."
Jiang Li was indeed surprised when he heard the news last night.
When I read the novel before, the original owner thought until her death that she was Jiang Sheng’s daughter, a cannon fodder whose biological mother died early and who was not loved by anyone.
When Jiang Li learned that his biological mother was Xue Rou, he, who had never enjoyed family affection, had a different feeling in his heart.
Perhaps, she can also experience what it feels like to be loved by her loved ones?
"You kid..." Xue Rou's face was already filled with tears. "Then why, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Xue Rou wished she could steal her daughter back home and raise her for another ten years before marrying her off!
"Mother, I just married the prince. If I announce today that I am your biological daughter, people will definitely say that the General's Mansion is deliberately trying to claim my daughter. Besides, my father and brothers now hold military power. If we arouse the emperor's suspicion, it will be more trouble than it is worth."
Xue Rou was indeed the famous lady made of water. Jiang Li felt that his right shoulder was wet.
"Anyway, I'm your goddaughter now. If you miss me, you can come find me anytime. I'll visit the General's Mansion often when I have the chance."
Jiang Li had never seen such a gentle woman, and this woman was her own mother.
Finally, Xue Rou wiped away her tears, looked at Jiang Li and said, "Mom is old, and she's not as careful as you think."
The government is in turmoil right now, and Jiang Li has just gotten married, so she really can't afford to cause any more trouble.
"Since you don't blame mother, then you must promise me to come to the general's mansion more often. Your grandparents have also brought you a lot of good things, all of which are with mother."
Thinking of Master Xue Di, who trusted her so much during the acupuncture competition, Jiang Li's mouth curled up. So this is her family.
"good."
Seeing Jiang Li agreed, Xue Rou finally felt relieved, "Okay, let's go quickly, don't let the prince wait anxiously."
Although she had not had a very good impression of Gu Qingchen before, but after seeing how he arranged to find Jiaojiao for their Jiang Mansion and how he protected and pampered Jiaojiao in the palace today, Xue Rou became more and more fond of this son-in-law.
"Your Majesty, shall we continue tonight?"
Just after getting off the carriage, Jiang Li suddenly said this
Mo Qi, who was leading the horse, almost fell down. Is this the joy of getting married?
Gu Qingchen smiled lightly, "Princess, please be gentle tonight, otherwise, I am afraid I can't bear it."
As everyone blushed, the two of them went to the backyard hand in hand.
The next day, the story of the deep love between the prince and his wife began to spread again in the capital.
Of course, there is also the bloody plot of Xian Xian'er trying to steal her husband.
The next day.
"Where's the prince?"
When Jiang Li woke up, she saw that the bed next to her was already empty.
She was exhausted from helping Gu Qingchen detoxify last night.
"The prince went to the study early in the morning and told the servants not to wake you."
Bai Zhi brought people to help Jiang Li wash and groom herself.
Having been used to being bullied in the Jiang Mansion, Bai Zhi felt that now that her young lady had married such a caring prince, it was finally a happy ending after all the hardships.
"Didn't you say before that the prince was scary?"
Jiang Li joked while eating breakfast.
Bai Zhi was so frightened that she immediately knelt on the ground, "This servant, this servant was..."
Seeing the little girl's face turned pale with fear, Jiang Li stopped teasing her and said, "Okay, get up quickly. I was just kidding you. I know you are only thinking about me."
"Miss..." Bai Zhi's eyes were filled with tears. "You only know how to tease me. Don't forget, today is a big day."
"What day?"
"Today is the day you return home."
Gu Qingchen's voice came from outside the door.
Bai Zhi quickly bowed and stepped aside. Jiang Li finished the last bite of the osmanthus cake and nodded, "I almost forgot, what about the Imperial Hospital..."
"I have sent someone to ask for leave for you."
"Okay, I haven't seen Zhou for several days. I wonder if she misses me?"
She is a person who cannot bear to suffer any loss, especially when she thinks about the ending of the original owner, Zhou will definitely pay the price.
