Princess Jintang, despite being a princess, did not have a good life.
When one's own lineage dies out, it's no ordinary matter.
There were some things that happened back then, and in short, things haven't gotten better yet.
After all, even if a princess is good enough, she has her limits. Even if she marries into a family like the Bai or Cui, they won't care.
Just like Princess Yongmu, how good could she be?
Therefore, Princess Jintang, who was over forty years old, looked quite old after the events outside Xuande Gate or the past year or so.
I'm getting old and can't keep up with the pace of life, so maybe it's better to go back sooner.
But some things are beyond our control, and perhaps where we'll go back to in the future is a problem.
The palace maid dragged Ji Hui over, and threw her to the ground, keeping her far away from the Empress.
The ground here is much cooler than the ground in front. After all, the Empress is very frugal, so it's naturally cooler when people come and go through this area.
Princess Jintang gasped in shock at the sight of her daughter-in-law!
Her face was slapped so hard it was mangled! Her hair was disheveled, and she looked even worse than if she'd just been to the Ministry of Justice!
After all, those with status might not be punished even if they went to the Ministry of Justice; there were plenty of people who could walk around freely.
Ji Hui's status wasn't too bad, but being beaten like this was as if he had been beaten by Princess Jintang.
The princess was furious!
Di Baose stepped forward and asked Ji Hui, "Did you hit the Lady of Yiyang?"
Ji Hui's mind was still blank, ahhh ah tsk! He was spitting blood!
Di Baose quickly dodged; the blood spurting out was a bit too much. Was he still not convinced?
The palace maid who dragged her over asked, "Didn't you raise your hand to hit Princess Yiyang?"
Ji Hui screamed, "No!"
Di Baose angrily retorted, "Are you the only one lying, or are all the people in my Eastern Palace lying?"
No one spoke up for Ji Hui because it was so obvious at the time!
By the way, the palace maids and the Empress reported, "Lady Ji asked Lady Yiyang, 'Do you think your father really likes you that much?'" Then she asked Ji Hui, "We haven't all gone deaf and misheard, have we?"
Ji Hui screamed, "That's for her own good!"
It's not that I don't want to speak properly, it's that I can't speak right now.
Huan Yue waved his hand: "Drag him away and give him fifty strokes of the cane."
Yes! The eunuchs are here to drag the person away!
Princess Jintang became anxious: "Didn't you see Qing'e? Lady Ji has already said she didn't."
Di Baose said, "Ji also said, 'It's for her own good.'"
Princess Jintang was caught off guard and was about to be half-dead after fifty strokes of the cane.
Lu Wenhe came over.
Princess Jintang was almost blinded by the light!
When Lü Wen was getting married, Princess Jintang was there, but she wasn't nearly as arrogant as she is today!
Princess Jintang was so anxious that she wanted to capture her.
Lu Wen slapped him across the face: "You all think I'm easy to bully?"
Princess Jintang was stunned by the blow!
Lu Wenhe asserted his authority: "Isn't Your Majesty doing this for her own good? What is Ji Shi anyway? How could she know about my father's affairs? Is she watching my father to become a spy for the enemy country? Or is she trying to control me to blackmail my father?"
Princess Jintang was completely baffled by the question! This is not something you can say lightly!
Lu Wenhe sneered! Then stay away from her! Getting close to her is just malicious.
Princess Jintang cried: "Ji is doing this for your own good."
Di Baose asked, "How did the princess find out?"
Princess Jintang had no answer.
Di Baose said, "The Lady of Yiyang has a biological father, brothers, and a stepmother. General Lü has rendered great service; would the court mistreat his only legitimate daughter? Why are you worrying about this? Are you worried about her betraying her own family?"
Huan Yue said, "You're supposed to be surnamed Xie, yet you don't even care about your ancestors!"
Princess Jintang denied it: "I didn't!"
Huan Yue said, "Whether it's true or not, the Dali Temple has the final say! Whether you acknowledge it or not is irrelevant! It all depends on how you face your ancestors in the future!"
Princess Jintang looked extremely unwell; she didn't know what was happening at the Dali Temple.
Huan Yue was about to yawn, but he held it in: "Even if it's treason, it's still brothers fighting amongst themselves; when they unite against external aggression, at least they can distinguish between internal and external forces! With your behavior, it's no different from tearing off the faces of soldiers and trampling on them at will. How dare you mention General Lü?"
Princess Jintang dared not speak further, fearing she would be beaten again.
Everyone knows that Huan Yue is capable of hitting people.
Princess Jintang could only say, "There are still several children in the family."
Huan Yue retorted directly: "You think I'm particularly kind by taking advantage of the elderly, the weak, women, and children?"
Guo Bing said, "Your Majesty's benevolence is known to all. But the princess's grandson has no one to raise him?"
Gong Shanyuan, representing the Charity Department, said: "I'm afraid that someone like Ji would not be able to raise children well. Your Majesty is doing this for the good of your family's descendants."
Huan Yue waved his hand: "Don't even think about sending people to the palace to be raised. I can't raise that many."
Princess Jintang's illegitimate son had no royal blood.
Princess Jintang had no choice but to go back first.
After Ji Hui was beaten, he was sent to the Dali Temple. I wonder if he had been beaten beforehand?
The crowd dispersed from the Qing'e Palace.
Huan Yue returned to Chengen Hall, intending to wash up and go to bed.
Xie Zhou hurried as fast as he could and finally made it.
Huan Yue asked, "What are you rushing for? Be careful not to slip in the snow."
If the crown prince breaks his leg, will his father break all three of his legs?
Xie Zhou noticed his wife's concern for him.
You're overthinking it.
Xie Zhou was already very satisfied, and he slept soundly with his wife in his arms.
Huan Yue looked at him and thought that if he didn't want all three legs to be broken, he should just go to sleep.
Xie Zhou was not honest; he was too obedient when holding his wife, which might mean he no longer loved her.
However, considering that she had also been busy all day, Xie Zhou stopped what he was doing and hugged his wife, saying, "There are also traces of the Great Stone Kingdom in Yu Shan's area."
Huan Yue yawned: "You're really good at playing around with the Great Stone Kingdom!"
Xie Zhou didn't want to bother her, so he whispered in her ear, "Fight back next time."
Huan Yue said, "Prepare for the right time, the right place, and the right people."
Xie Zhou nodded, "Victory is the only option, defeat is not an option!"
War is costly, and defeat would result in even greater losses.
His wife is always calculating, and she can't stand the consequences of losing the war.
It's not that we can't afford to lose, but we must be fully prepared. We should never fight a battle we can't win.
To win is to pursue the greatest benefit; to lose is to control the least loss.
Huan Yue recalled something: "Fu Dingchen's description of Zichan Mountain is quite good; he's a talented person."
Xie Zhou affirmed, "He is a talented individual. He is someone I have high hopes for."
In my past life, I was indeed busy with cheating in the imperial examinations, but that's impossible now.
Although there will always be busy times, the feeling is different when you are busy with different things.
I have a strong sense of control now. Before, I didn't know what was driving me.
The environment is indeed complex, but this uncertainty is very dangerous.
Now it's like the clouds have parted and the sun has shone through, restoring a bright and clear world. Everyone is in a good mood.
Xie Zhou noticed his wife was sleeping soundly. Should he do something?
His wife is so gentle and sweet, which is why both Wen Yuan and Xie Jian have such wonderful wives.
Mutual affection is rare; some relationships are merely illusions.
However, Xie Jian and Wen Miao are intelligent people, and only truly intelligent people can live well.
In his previous life, the Peng Prince's Mansion was tormented, but Xie Jian, like Consort Shen, probably managed to survive until the end.
Being able to survive is also a skill. Now that there's an opportunity, Xie Jian's role is also significant.
Therefore, Xie Zhou should still thank his good wife. Isn't it wonderful to have a virtuous wife?
For someone like Xie Yu, this kind of weather can only be cold and icy. It's no wonder that Qing'e stole his wife; it was just wishful thinking on his part. Besides, Wen Miao and he couldn't live together anyway.
