Chapter 199 Strive
"Zhen'er, I have been completely abandoned by my mother." Zhu Huaishu murmured, his eyes a little sad.
Zhu Huaishu knew that her mother had disliked her since she was a child because she despised her for not being a man and therefore unable to inherit the Southern Wu Kingdom. At that time, she was young and full of energy, unwilling to accept this. She studied poetry, literature, rituals, music, riding, and archery diligently, striving to achieve the highest level and surpass her peers.
Unfortunately, her mother still didn't approve of her.
A Niang felt that her role was to arrange marriages.
As a marriage alliance, she is too strong and is not favored.
Therefore, A Niang placed all her hopes on Princess Xincheng, Zhao Lian'er.
"Big sister, have you thought of a way out?" Zhu Huaizhen sighed helplessly.
It may not be easy to return to Nanyan.
After all, White Snake had already defected to the Northern Zhou Dynasty.
However, Nanchu was already in turmoil.
After hearing this, Zhu Huaishu shook his head slightly.
If she was willing to settle down and get married, she could go to Northern Zhou.
No matter how bad her situation is, her mother will protect her.
"Big sister, just take your time to think about it." Zhu Huaizhen patted Zhu Huaishu's shoulder and sighed.
So, Zhu Huaishu joined Zhu Huaizhen's leisurely life.
The teas include rose-pickled melon seed tea, salted bamboo shoot, sesame and osmanthus tea, melon seed, chestnut, salted bamboo shoot, sesame and rose tea, salted cherry tea, osmanthus and green bean tea, walnut and pine nut tea, candied golden orange tea, osmanthus, sesame and smoked bamboo shoot tea, coriander and sesame tea, etc., for Zhu Huaishu to try something new.
To be honest, Zhu Huaishu rarely has time to relax.
Back then, in Southern Wu, even though Emperor Wu Zhang preferred the third prince to inherit the throne, she still wanted to fight for the title of Princess Guardian of the Nation. She would go wherever there was a difficult problem and would never come back until it was solved.
Gradually, her reputation in Southern Wu became so high that Emperor Zhang of Wu had to put the matter of appointing a crown prince on hold.
It’s not that Southern Wu had never had a female emperor, but they were rare.
Is Zhu Huaishu definitely the phoenix rising from the ashes?
The pastries include such as Honey Floating Pear Cake, Spring Water Cake, Ice and Snow Cold Yuanzi, Bijian Bean Cake, Qiongye Cake, Buttered Abalone and Snail, Danai Jujube, Jiandao Sugared Lychee, Lotus Cake, Rice Mooncake, etc., which are indeed delicious.
Zhu Huaishu had something on his mind, so he took a few bites and found the food tasteless.
"Big sister, how about ordering a play that you like?" Seeing this, Zhu Huaishu held up her rosy cheeks and smiled.
Opera? Zhu Huaishu basically didn't listen to this kind of decadent music.
Zhu Huaizhen looked at it, sighed, and simply ordered "Wall Horse" for Zhu Huaishu.
We looked at each other from afar on the wall and on horseback, and my heart was broken as soon as I saw you.
This kind of love affair is so boring, it seems to be the favorite of a certain deposed queen.
Afraid of dew startling the sleeping birds, the wind ruffles the courtyard locust trees. Behold the Milky Way slanting across the steps, unmoved by the wispy dust. Moon, you are as thin as a bow, half a toad, yet bright as a mirror, reflecting the universe, yet cold as ice, soaking the twelve celestial peaks. Forbidden from the auspicious mist, I offer my deepest worship to the full moon. It's convenient for you, and it's not a hindrance to me. Deeply worship you, Chang'e, for not being jealous of your beauty, how dare you remain shrouded in mist and cloud for even a moment.
Zhu Huaizhen yawned repeatedly after hearing this, but Zhu Huaishu seemed to be thinking about something.
"Zhen'er, can I be the head of the Bai family?" Zhu Huaishu's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Big sister, your surname is Zhu." Zhu Huaizhen said sullenly.
Zhu Huaizhen was not happy about this, so Zhu Huaishu changed his surname to Bai.
Bai Huaishu, how unpleasant it sounds.
"Zhen'er, it's just a surname, why bother about it? We are still sisters." Zhu Huaishu held Zhu Huaizhen's shoulders, extremely excited.
Why had she never thought before that being the head of a prominent family was much more stable than getting married?
Alas, she was still influenced by her mother and had a much narrower vision.
