For Huang Rushuang, this New Year was a time of witnessing her mother remarrying very quickly, especially to a new stepfather, which was really hard for her to digest. Huang Rushuang didn't understand why she suddenly had a stepfather who was so loud when eating and behaved roughly, which was simply unbearable.

Entering the palace became her best destination. When she lived in the East Palace, her mood improved a lot.

But for Yao Niang, just like in previous years, there were a lot of red tape. Also, because her husband was the crown prince, the Eastern Palace received a lot of gifts. Of course, there were also a lot of gifts in return, and Queen Hong even helped to return some of them.

It's not for other reasons, but mainly because Queen Hong considered that Gao Xuance had not had much treasury in the past few years since his marriage. As a biological mother, how could she not help her? She also wanted the prince's face.

When I was the Prince of Chen, I had a chief historian in my mansion to cover the expenses of running the mansion, etc. But after becoming the Crown Prince, I no longer have this income. Fortunately, I have the support of my mother-in-law this year.

Princess Zhenyang knew the truth and said to her husband Jing Sili: "Don't think that my mother only has me as her daughter and loves me very much. In fact, she loves my third brother the most, since she was a child."

Prince Consort Jing thought to himself, if he didn't love your third brother, it would be difficult for him to sit in this position today.

There is really no one who can use the second legitimate son to kill the emperor's eldest legitimate son.

But when the words came to his lips, he still had to say: "Now that the crown prince is heading east to attack the Donghu, I also want to go to the front line to help. Otherwise, if we don't win this battle, we will not only have to pay tribute but also cede land. What should we do?"

Princess Zhenyang understood what her husband meant. No matter what, your third brother still has abilities.

She smiled and said, "I know, even if we don't talk about state affairs, our daughter Wanwan is still with Third Sister-in-law."

Prince Consort Jing nodded and said, "The Crown Princess is a noble and dignified person. It would be a good thing for our daughter to be raised with her."

Although Princess Zhenyang and Yao Niang had a good relationship, she was not very proud of her husband's praise: "In terms of tolerance, my second sister-in-law is a rare tolerant person. In terms of ability, my fourth brother's wife is second to none. Why do I see you praising my third sister-in-law so much?"

This is very strange. The way women look at women is very different from the way men look at women. In the eyes of women, a good woman is one who does not flatter men, has some character, is straightforward and easy to get along with, and a gentler one can also gossip. But Yao Niang seldom gossips about others since she has been in the palace. She is filial to the empress and the emperor, and is especially good to Gao Xuance, but she gets along very well with her sisters-in-law, and is not close to her sisters-in-law (except her).

But she can always steal the limelight wherever she goes, and can make it by taking unconventional approaches.

This is a bit unusual and stands out, and appears different from the crowd.

As a man, Prince Consort Jing said something different: "The Crown Princess and the Crown Prince are deeply in love, and both are talented and have excellent character. You can see that every time the Crown Princess gives us a gift, it is different from others."

First of all, the Crown Princess is extremely beautiful, and this cannot be praised in front of his wife. Then, she has very high taste. While others gave tacky golden Buddhas as gifts, she chose ones with a simple and elegant style.

You have to know that the prince used to be a arrogant person, but he could still bow down to her. He doesn't have any concubines or maids, and she can give birth to children. This shows that this person must have some good points.

Even though these advantages are unknown for the time being, Prince Consort Jing already knows from his limited contact with her that the Crown Princess has very good taste and is not vulgar.

Furthermore, when Gao Xuance was away from home for most of the year, she was able to guard the door well, deal with her two sisters-in-law without making any mistakes, and teach Prince Yuanchen so well. This is not an ordinary person.

Although she did not deliberately cultivate her reputation, all the officials in the Eastern Palace praised her, and this praise was more powerful than that from other nobles.

The nobles were nothing but grass on the wall. When King Zhou established the crown prince, they and King Chen wanted to draw a clear line, but the officials in the East Palace could help the prince and would not betray him easily.

This is why Prince Consort Jing said that she was a noble and dignified person.

Princess Zhenyang laughed at him: "So you were looking at this."

The couple discussed it again. Jing Sili was also from a noble family. Although he was a son-in-law of the emperor, he also wanted to serve in the army. Therefore, he wrote a letter to Gao Xuance and did not want to have an idle meal.

Princess Zhenyang also took the opportunity to talk to Yao Niang when she entered the palace: "If it can really be finished before the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, our Prince Consort wants to go with us to take a look. I told you to stay in the capital, but he insisted on going."

"It's a good thing that you are ambitious. Otherwise, after your husband leaves, you can also live in the palace. We can talk together." Yao Niang didn't react much.

Many people thought that with Gao Xuance in this battle, they would surely win, but Yao Niang knew that the national treasury was empty and the emperor did not dare to really affect the core interests of the gentry. The soldiers on the front line had been owed food and wages for half a year.

Princess Zhenyang chatted with Yao Niang for a while and congratulated her: "When Third Brother comes back, you and your wife will be reunited."

"He has important things to do, and I dare not bother him."

Yao Niang said that you can't have it all. You want your husband to be successful, and you also want him to accompany you every day.

Besides, Gao Xuance liked her very much and was quite obsessed with her.

Princess Zhenyang said, "You really care about her. I heard that Third Brother went to the battlefield for the first time and you just got married, but you didn't even receive a letter."

"Princess, don't worry. He writes to me often now. But it would be bad if the letters sent to the army were intercepted by someone with ulterior motives."

From time to time, Wanwan and Huang Rushuang came over, and Princess Zhenyang had something to say when she saw her daughter.

When Yao Niang looked at it, it was the time when she would accompany Xun Ge'er to play the game, but since the princess was here, she couldn't chase her away, so she could only sit with her with a smile.

Very peaceful, doesn't seem to gossip much, and is very steady.

Even though Princess Zhenyang felt that talking to her was not as pleasant as when she was a child, she still acknowledged her position as the Crown Princess, and she still did a good job.

It's not that Yao Niang is unwilling to be carefree with Princess Zhenyang as before, but it's not possible in this capacity. That time, she just said that Gao Xuance had a letter and it was very likely that he would return by Mid-Autumn Festival, and Princess Zhenyang remembered it and spread it out immediately.

This made Yao Niang even more silent, and she finally understood what it meant to be lonely at the top.

To put it in a bigger picture, there is a high possibility of leaking military aircraft, and if a third person knows it, it will no longer be a secret.

However, if what Gao Xuance said is true, Yao Niang will be able to see her husband in half a year.

Unexpectedly, things often develop unexpectedly. In March of the Yangchun month, she was summoned by the emperor. Emperor Jianzhang was a little worried when he saw his daughter-in-law, because the emperor usually led the army in person, as his father was in poor health.

He also wanted his son to defeat the enemy with fewer people and insufficient money and food to fight the Donghu. Now his son has been hit by two swords...

"Don't worry, I have already let Prince Consort Jing and Prince Jinyang go there." The emperor comforted him.

But swords have no eyes, and Yao Niang made a bold request: "Father, I am really worried about the prince's illness. Prince Jing and Prince Jinyang both have important tasks to attend to. Why don't I go with him to take care of him, and come back when he is better."

"You, this... the military discipline is strict, I'm afraid it won't work."

"My daughter-in-law often rode a horse when she was studying in the palace. She is just going to take care of the prince. She will come back as soon as he gets better. If there is nothing serious, she will take a look at him and come back. If something really happens, I believe he will recover faster after seeing his family." Yao Niang was still worried about Gao Xuance.

A journey of thousands of miles may be hard, but she is not afraid of hardship.

Emperor Jianzhang knew that Gao Xuance was young and energetic, and was determined to achieve great things. Young people are like this. Perhaps it would be better with Luo around, so after thinking about it, he agreed.

Yao Niang breathed a sigh of relief.

Gao Xuance didn't know his wife was coming. He had just pulled out the arrow and was gritting his teeth, suffering from digestive pain. A few days later, the medicine was sent to him at an expedited rate of 800 km. He didn't care, as it was just a few friendly people coming to visit him.

Gao Jian went back for rotation last year, maybe he was sent here now, or it could be Prince Consort Jing who wrote to me a few days ago.

How could I know that I saw Yao Niang...

She wants to come in person...

"Someone come, someone come." Gao Xuance was extremely anxious.

The guards outside rushed in and heard Gao Xuance say, "Clean my razor, and bring me a small needle and medicine bottle."

Every time he went back to see Yao Niang, he would dress up and show his best appearance. Now he was at the border, eating too much beef and mutton would easily cause him to get angry, and he was too lazy to shave his beard, so he couldn't do that. He had to squeeze out the pimples on his face and return home quickly, shaving his beard to restore his original appearance.

The bodyguard was stunned, but did not dare to disobey and hurried out.

When Gao Xuance heard Yao Niang's name, the pain he felt was reduced by three points.
