Yes yes.

She got it.

Being ordinary is just her character.

If Zhong Ruhuang was really a fool, she might have died in the fight among those men in the harem long ago.

It is said that women in the harem can be very ruthless, but in a world where women are dominant, men can be even more ruthless. This can be seen from the fact that there were so many men in Emperor Showa's harem who lost their ability to conceive due to miscarriage.

Zhong Ruhuang couldn't understand why Xiao Jin wanted to cheat her before, but now she understood.

Her mother did not have a suitable general to send to guard Chaotian Pass, so she planned to choose one of the princesses to guard Chaotian Pass.

After much deliberation, they chose the sixth princess, Zhong Qihuang, born to the imperial concubine Xiao Jin.

The choice of Zhong Qihuang must have been a decision made by Emperor Showa after weighing the pros and cons. However, due to some reasons, no clear decree was issued, giving Xiao Jinshi the opportunity to change her decision.

Therefore, she took Chinese medicine at the birthday party and had sex with Xiao's son.

This guess seems reasonable, but there is one thing that Zhong Ruhuang doesn't understand.

Why did Xiao Jin choose her?

Emperor Showa sent the Sixth Princess to guard Chaotian Pass because she had someone behind her. Her aunt was the Minister of War and could help her.

But she was just a powerless princess without a father's family. Even if she was sent to Chaotian Pass, she would only have the title of a princess.

Or was it that Xiao Jin was originally planning on another princess, but was outwitted by someone else?

Rather than Xiao Jin trying to plot against her, it would be better if Xiao Jin was tricked by someone else.

This is the only reasonable guess.

Zhong Ruhuang has figured out the cause and effect.

I also understand why the Imperial Noble Consort Xiao Jin did that.

but……

What would her mother do?

To be honest, Zhong Ruhuang didn't want to go to Chaotian Pass either.

Chaotian Pass is not a good place. If you are not careful, you may lose your life.

However, Zhong Ruhuang changed her mind and realized that she had no power or influence, and she didn't even have anyone supporting her in the court, so it was unlikely that she would go to Chaotian Pass.

Unless she makes an unforgivable mistake.

Forehead!

It seemed that she had committed the crime and slept with Xiao Ziran.

But Xiao Ziran also arranged for her to marry him as her legal husband. It is not known whether she lost or Xiao Ziran gained?

Forget it, forget it, don’t think about it anymore.

Whether to go to Chaotian Pass is not something she can decide; it depends on the opinion of her mother.

However, now that we know the purpose of the Imperial Concubine Xiao Jin, then tomorrow's flower-viewing banquet will be more like a Hongmen Banquet.

I just don’t know who this Hongmen Banquet is aimed at.

There is no way to hide, I can only deal with it as it happens tomorrow.

Zhong Ruhuang looked at the sun outside the window. It was already setting slightly. It was time for her to review her lessons.

Yesterday was her mother’s birthday banquet. Although it was not a full birthday party, it gave the princesses who were still studying three days off so that they could relax and have some fun.

One and a half days had passed in the three-day holiday, and she had not yet reviewed the homework assigned by the tutor.

Zhong Ruhuang got up, went to the study, took out a book and started reading.

Although she has learned it all, she can still understand different truths by reading more.

At the same time, she also understood why the Imperial Noble Consort Xiao Jin scheduled the flower-viewing banquet for tomorrow, because she, the Imperial Princess, needed a vacation.

After tomorrow, which is the seventh day of June, she will continue to study as if she were waking up at the sound of the cock-crow, and will have no time to attend the flower-viewing banquet.

While Zhong Ruhuang was reviewing her lessons seriously, Xiao Ziran had already been sent back to the Xiao family by several female supervisors, along with the supervisor who was in charge of announcing Emperor Showa's oral order.

The Xiao family was originally worried about Xiao Ziran's disappearance. They thought he had encountered some danger and were wondering if he would bring trouble to the Xiao family. His stepfather Wang was instigating his mother, the head of the Xiao family, to remove him from the Xiao family tree. But then he came back.

Not only did he come back, he also brought tremendous wealth.

The head of the Xiao family respectfully and politely sent away several female prisoners and gave them a lot of silver.

Especially in the Imperial Household, she secretly slipped several silver notes with a face value of one thousand yuan into the palace.

After the female supervisors left, the head of the Xiao family grabbed Xiao Ziluan's wrist and asked with an ecstatic expression: "Son, is what they said true? Are you really the Fifth Princess's man? The future husband of the Fifth Princess?"

The head of the Xiao family is a rather wealthy middle-aged woman, about the same age as Emperor Showa.

It is true that Xiao Ziran is the eldest son of the Xiao family head, but he is not liked by the Xiao family head. In addition, his biological father Niu died of illness when he was four years old.

Less than three months after his biological father Niu passed away, the head of the Xiao family remarried and married his current second wife, Wang.

When Wang came into the family, she not only brought a daughter who was only half a year younger than Xiao Ziran, but she also came in with a big belly. Less than half a year after she came into the family, she gave birth to a son for the head of the Xiao family.

As the saying goes, if there is a stepfather, there will be a stepmother. What's more, the head of the Xiao family didn't like Xiao Ziran's biological father, Niu, and he also disliked his son, despising him as a money-loser.

If it weren't for the fact that Xiao Ziran's grandfather loved him and took him to stay with him from time to time, Xiao Ziran might have been tortured to death by his stepfather Wang.

Does the head of the Xiao family know that Wang abused Xiao Ziran?

Of course I know it, but I just turn a blind eye to it.

What's more, Wang was originally the mistress of the Xiao family head and gave birth to his only daughter.

For the sake of his daughter, the head of the Xiao family turned a blind eye and pretended not to see what happened to Xiao Ziran.

Because the head of the Xiao family didn't care, Xiao Ziran's life was very hard.

Calling him "son" so affectionately was something he had never experienced before.

Xiao Ziran grew up in a secluded place, where she was taught the Three Obediences and Four Virtues, which included the virtues and precepts for men, and the need to be filial and polite.

In such an environment, the lives of men in every family are pretty much the same.

Xiao Ziran didn't think his mother was wrong. He thought it was his stepfather who was just torturing him and his mother was simply deceived by his sweet words.

So when faced with the questions from the head of the Xiao family, Xiao Ziluan naturally answered honestly.

"Mother, it's all true. I am now the Fifth Princess's wife, and we will be married within a month."

"Okay, okay, my son is a good one."

The head of the Xiao family dreams of getting close to the royal family, no matter which one it is.

What's more, her son suddenly became the husband of the princess, a position that was something she had never dared to imagine before.

At this moment, she liked her son Xiao Ziran very much.

"My son, don't worry, your family will give you a generous dowry, so that you will be no worse than other imperial daughters and husbands...hiss, what are you doing?"

Before the Xiao family head finished speaking, Wang, who was standing next to her, became unhappy.

The fact that Xiao Ziran was lucky enough to become the fifth princess's legal husband was enough to make him jealous and angry. Now that the head of the Xiao family asked for a generous dowry, he became even angrier.

In Wang's view, all the family property will belong to his daughter in the future.

Xiao Ziran is just the bastard offspring of that bastard Niu. Why should he be given such a generous dowry?

Wang glared at Patriarch Xiao and refused to give in: "What do you think I should do? You're going to give him a generous dowry? What about our daughter? What about our son? Are you going to leave them starving?"

Wang was originally a hot-tempered person. After she learned about the extravagant ways that the head of the Xiao family had played when he was young and that he only had three children in his life, she became arrogant.

What is he afraid of?

He gave her a daughter who could carry on the family line, and she was her only daughter. Shouldn't she be nicer to him?

"What do you know as a husband? This is a big deal in our family."

The head of the Xiao family did not expect that Wang would start yelling in public. He felt a little embarrassed and could not help but scold him.
