The daughter of the emperor is reborn to be beautiful and cool, and the King of Zhenbei loves her wi

The entire Zhenguo Mansion also stood up.

Shen Nanzhi was so sleepy that she could hardly open her eyelids, and was picked up from her bed by a group of maids and old women.

Mrs. Quanfu invited her eldest aunt’s sister-in-law, Ms. Yao.

After being pulled by her aunt and others to sit in front of the dressing table, Yao scooped up a handful of Shen Nanzhi's hair, took out a cow horn comb, and combed her hair while saying auspicious words.

"If you comb your hair once to the end, you won't have to worry about wealth. If you comb your hair twice, your hair will be as white as your eyebrows. If you comb your hair three times, your hair will be full of children and grandchildren... If you comb your hair nine times, you will have everything. If you comb your hair ten times, your husband and wife will grow old together..."

Maybe because Xiao Chuyun was not there, Shen Nanzhi did not have much nervousness like an ordinary girl getting married. She washed her face, combed her hair, put on makeup... Shen Nanzhi dozed off the whole time.

By the time she finished the series of tedious procedures, it was already bright outside.

The wedding procession sent by the Zhenbei Palace arrived at an auspicious time.

Since Xiao Chuyun could not show up, Shen Nanzhi originally wanted Jiang Liang, the steward of the Zhenbei Palace, to lead the team to welcome the bride on behalf of Xiao Chuyun. However, what Shen Nanzhi did not expect was that it was the eldest prince Xiao Huaimin who took time out of his busy schedule to come specially.

Now everyone thought that the eldest prince was the only choice for the crown prince, and Xiao Huaimin went to pick up the bride on behalf of Xiao Chuyun. That was not all, the eldest prince's wife Zhou Jinxuan helped Shen Nanzhi into the bridal sedan and personally sent her to the Zhenbei Palace. The two of them undoubtedly gave Shen Nanzhi enough dignity and honor. For a moment, those who had originally felt a little sorry for Shen Nanzhi because of Xiao Chuyun's poor health no longer dared to make any comments.

But Shen Nanzhi doesn't care about these.

The gongs and drums were beating loudly, and the cannons were blasting. Shen Nanzhi's ears were hurt by the noise. When she came to her senses, she was already in the new room in the Zhenbei Palace.

There were only a group of rough men in Xiao Chuyun's palace, and most of them were promoted from the military camp. The housekeeper Jiang Liang originally wanted to buy a group of maids, but Shen Nanzhi thought about it and felt that she was more confident with the maids around her, so she brought all the maids in her yard over.

However, in order to conceal Xiao Chuyun's whereabouts, she temporarily left only Qiuyu and Qiuyue, whose health had improved, in the room. Of course, she also brought Lu Pianpian back to the Zhenbei Palace.

The eldest prince's wife Zhou Jinxuan accompanied Shen Nanzhi all the way from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion to the Prince of Zhenbei's Mansion.

Except for them, everyone else in the main courtyard was sent away.

The eldest prince Xiao Huaimin blocked those social engagements for Xiao Chuyun in the front yard, while Zhou Jinxuan accompanied Shen Nanzhi in the bridal chamber.

Even Shen Nanzhi's veil was chosen by Zhou Jinxuan using a golden scale rod.

Also coming with them was Wen Lanxiang from the Yong'an Earl's Mansion.

She had been with Shen Nanzhi most of the time these days. Although Shen Nanzhi didn't tell her explicitly, this girl was really smart. Just by looking at the glances between Shen Nanzhi and Zhou Jinxuan, she roughly guessed what they were going to do. As she had promised before, she did everything Shen Nanzhi arranged for her to do, no matter how big or small.

Wen Lanxiang is a smart person, and since she has gained Shen Nanzhi's trust, Zhou Jinxuan is happy to hand over to her little by little the tasks that were previously placed on him.

In Zhou Jinxuan's words, once Wen Lanxiang has fully mastered the job, Shen Nanzhi will be able to relax a little.

The guests in the front yard were having a great time, but Shen Nanzhi was yawning in the new house.

Zhou Jinxuan originally wanted to stay in the Zhenbei Palace for a few more days to accompany Shen Nanzhi, but in the eyes of outsiders, Xiao Chuyun and Shen Nanzhi had just gotten married after all, and it was really inappropriate for her to be a sister-in-law. Moreover, Shen Nanzhi also urged her to go back. She was afraid that if she was any later, the prince would come to ask for her, so Zhou Jinxuan had to give up.

After seeing off Zhou Jinxuan, Wen Lanxiang and others, Shen Nanzhi let Qiuyu remove her makeup and take off her wedding dress.

Looking at the room full of joy and the gorgeous wedding dress, and the fact that everyone in the room kept calling her Princess Zhenbei, Shen Nanzhi was still a little dazed. She was getting married.

But the emotion is only temporary.

Although the place has changed, everyone here is their own family, and the groom Xiao Chuyun is not present. Shen Nanzhi did not feel nervous or anxious. He ate and drank as usual, and after washing up, he heard that the banquet in the front yard was coming to an end. With someone taking care of it, nothing went wrong throughout the whole process. Shen Nanzhi, who could no longer hold on, fell asleep.

When I opened my eyes again, it was already the next afternoon.

Shen Nanzhi washed up, stood in front of the window and looked at the crabapple trees in the yard. For a moment, she had the illusion that she was in the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion.

There were so many things going on yesterday that she didn't pay attention. Now she discovered that in the main courtyard of the Zhenbei Palace

The layout and every blade of grass and tree are almost replicas of her yard.

Even the furnishings in this room are the same.

This gave Shen Nanzhi a trance-like feeling, as if she was married, but not married.

No need to ask, it must be Xiao Chuyun's intention.

Thinking of Xiao Chuyun, Shen Nanzhi couldn't help but feel a little sweet in her heart.

Nearly half a month had passed since he left Beijing, and news had been sent back from Yuzhou from time to time, but the northern border seemed to be isolated from the world, with not even a single word coming back.

At first, Shen Nanzhi could still comfort himself that no news was good news, which meant that Xiao Chuyun's whereabouts were hidden very well and he could catch the Northern Territory off guard.

But as time went by, Shen Nanzhi became more and more uneasy.

Especially when thinking of Xiao Qian'an's words that burned his soul.

Shen Nanzhi was lost in thought when Mo Yun asked Qiuyu to bring in some news.

Before, at the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, although Mo Yun did not dare to enter Shen Nanzhi's boudoir, he at least dared to peek in the yard. After Shen Nanzhi got married, he didn't even dare to enter the main courtyard. If there was any news, he would ask Qiuyu to pass it in, or wait for Shen Nanzhi to summon him. He was no longer as nonchalant as before.

The news brought this time is related to the *** government.

After Ye Qingwan returned yesterday, she painted the portrait overnight and sent it to Shen Nanzhi. Mo Yun also immediately sent people to the *** Mansion to verify. Although the follower was indeed in the *** Mansion, the result of the interrogation surprised Shen Nanzhi.

Although that man was an attendant of the *** Palace on the surface, he was also a chess piece of Lin Hongrui. However, he had another deeper identity. He was actually a secret agent planted by Xiao Chuyun next to Lin Hongrui!

His real name was Liu Jian, and he had intended to keep the secret to himself and never reveal it. However, the person who interrogated him was Mo Yun, and he was interrogated on the orders of Princess Zhenbei, so he confessed everything immediately.

What he said was consistent with the information of the secret agents registered in the Zhenbei Palace. Even the secret codes matched. He even knew the special contact marks of the Zhenbei Palace. Even Mo Yun could not find any flaws.

Shen Nanzhi was shocked when she heard the news.

If Liu Jian did not lie, according to what he said, he was instructed by Xiao Chuyun to instigate Ye Kunshan in front of Lin Hongrui, which aroused Lin Hongrui's suspicion. He mistakenly believed that although Ye Kunshan had been working for Emperor Shunqing in recent years, he was actually on the side of the Shen family. He was afraid that Ye Kunshan would be soft-hearted or even turn against the Shen family at a critical moment, so Lin Hongrui immediately reported this suspicion to Emperor Shunqing.

Emperor Shunqing was a suspicious person by nature. Since the seeds of suspicion had been planted, it was of course impossible for him to keep Ye Kunshan in such an important place as Qingzhou.

Therefore, he took advantage of the situation and transferred Ye Kunshan back to Kyoto, and formulated a plan to target Shen Nanzhi and Shen Changan in the Autumn Hunting Ground.

From that time on, Ye Kunshan had become a discarded piece on Emperor Shunqing's chessboard.

Therefore, it is no wonder that the assassins in Yunyan Town did not care about Ye Kunshan’s life or death, because Emperor Shunqing no longer cared.

Looking back from some angles, Liu Jian's statement seems credible.

If Xiao Chuyun had not arranged people around Lin Hongrui, how could he have accurately found Lin Hongrui's location and blamed the Yuzhou Zhou family for Lin Hongrui's death.

But why was it Xiao Chuyun who secretly manipulated and guided Emperor Shunqing to transfer Ye Kunshan back early?

This did not happen in the previous life, and in this life, this incident happened before Shen Nanzhi and Xiao Qian'an were reborn.

Shen Nanzhi really couldn't understand this.

Could it be that Xiao Chuyun, like her and Xiao Qian'an, also has memories of his past life?

But Shen Nanzhi looked at Xiao Chuyun's previous actions and didn't think so.

Moreover, according to Xiao Qian'an, as the price of activating the forbidden technique and burning the soul, Xiao Chuyun in the previous life has already lost his soul. Xiao Chuyun who already exists in this life will not have a good end, and he will not have any memory of his previous life.

On this issue, Xiao Qian'an had no reason to lie, and Shen Nanzhi could not see anything unusual in Xiao Qian'an's expression at all.

If this is the case, how did Xiao Chuyun prepare for the future?

Where is the problem?

Shen Nanzhi didn't disbelieve Xiao Chuyun, nor did she think that Xiao Chuyun was intentionally hiding things from her. After all, she herself had never asked questions in this regard, and when Liu Jian heard that it was her who was interrogating him, he immediately confessed everything. It was obvious that Xiao Chuyun had no intention of avoiding her.

Shen Nanzhi just always felt that he must have overlooked something very important.

It’s a pity that she and Xiao Chuyun had rarely been together before, and she didn’t even have the time to talk about some things.

Now they probably have no choice but to wait for Xiao Chuyun to return from the northern border before they can sit down and talk it over in detail.

Shen Nanzhi could only put this matter aside for the time being and decided to focus on tracking down the string of rosewood Buddhist beads that Fourth Miss Xie Wanting had given her.

Shen Nanzhi asked someone to check Xie Wanting's whereabouts in recent times from the Xie family. Apart from going out once and having an encounter with the second prince Xiao Shihua, she did not get any opportunities as she said.

Then this Buddhist beads must have come from Xiao Shihua.

It happened that Xiao Huaimin was clearing out the remnants of Xiao Shihua these days, so Shen Nanzhi sent a message over and asked his people to pay attention to the news related to this string of Buddhist beads.

But there was news within a few days.

What Xie Wanting said was fabricated. Neither she nor the Second Prince's people had ever met Master Huikong.

This string of Buddhist beads was bought by the Second Prince after he found out that Shen Nanzhi had sent people everywhere to inquire about the whereabouts of Master Huikong, and he asked a subordinate to buy it at the foot of the Xiangguo Temple to make up the number.

At the foot of the Xiangguo Temple mountain, there are countless stalls of all sizes selling incense, wax, and paper. There are also many stalls selling Buddhist beads and bracelets like the one used by Master Huikong who is rumored to have passed away. This is just one of them.

To them it's all fake.

But holding the string of Buddhist beads in his hand, Shen Nanzhi had a strange feeling that he couldn't explain.

I feel that this Buddhist beads are different from ordinary Buddhist beads.

It just so happens that today is a good day.

Good news came back from both the north and the south.

Under the siege of the coalition forces of Shen and Xie, the rebel army that Zhou Zhengyong had been preparing for decades was trapped and killed in Yuzhou.

Zhou Zhengyong committed suicide after his defeat, and the rest of the Zhou family members were already on their way back to Beijing. The coalition forces of the Shen and Xie families won a great victory. The performance of the Shen family army led by Shen Huaishu was needless to say, but what was surprising was that the young marquis of the Xie family, Xie Changyuan, changed everyone's inherent impression of him as a playboy. He became a young general, brave and resourceful, and became famous in one battle.

In this life, Da Qi reacted quickly, launching an attack before the Zhou family emerged, and strangled the southern Xinjiang's potential in the cradle. In addition, the court reacted quickly and provided timely supplies, so this battle was fought easily.

My uncle, Shen Changan and others will return to Beijing soon after handing over to the officials sent by the court to deal with the aftermath of Yuzhou.

Xiao Chuyun in the north also brought good news. The results of the battle were better than they expected. Xiao Chuyun suddenly landed in the northern border and killed his way directly to the Northern Barbarian King's Court. He also supported the eldest prince to ascend to the throne and completely strangled the high priest and his son who had been causing trouble before, as well as the faction of the third prince they supported.

The eldest prince was a peace advocate to begin with, and the Northern Barbarians were badly hurt after this war, so they completely surrendered to the Great Qi and became its vassal state, which would ensure peace in the northern border of the Great Qi for at least twenty years.

Xiao Chuyun is coming back too.

After this news spread, everyone realized that the King of Zhenbei was not so seriously ill that he couldn't even personally welcome the bride. He was clearly using the marriage as a cover and secretly went to the northern border!

The people in Beijing who had been waiting to see Shen Nanzhi marry a sickly man who was dying out of jealousy have now completely lost their enthusiasm.

At the same time, the eldest prince Xiao Huaimin struck while the iron was hot and announced the edict of Emperor Shunqing to establish the crown prince.

Although there have always been rumors that Xiao Chuyun was in poor health, he fought this battle beautifully, and it was at a time when people were most eager for him. In addition, the only adult princes left were Xiao Chuyun and Xiao Huaimin. This edict was issued during the period when Emperor Shunqing was seriously ill and Xiao Huaimin was regent, which shows that Xiao Huaimin fully supported it!

Therefore, no one dared to doubt this edict.

Only the Zhang family, headed by General Zhang, was unwilling to admit it, but now they were already in a difficult situation.

Xiao Huaimin is a kind and gentle person, but he is never merciful to his enemies. The Zhang family had plotted against him before, and had also plotted against Xiao Chuyun. There was no need to wait for Xiao Chuyun to come back to settle the score. During this period of time, he took advantage of the confiscation of the power of the second prince Xiao Shihua to carry out a major reshuffle in the court. In order to pave the way for Xiao Chuyun, Xiao Huaimin took the initiative to become the villain.

Among them, the Zhang family suffered the most severe losses.

For a time, the Shen family's reputation grew rapidly.

Countless posts were delivered to the Prince's Mansion, which had just changed its name from the Zhenbei Palace.

Before Shen Nanzhi got used to her title as Princess of Zhenbei, she suddenly became the Crown Princess of the current dynasty.

In this regard, Shen Nanzhi was still thinking about waiting for Xiao Chuyun to come back. She must tease Xiao Chuyun. When they parted before, he said that when they met again, she would be his princess. Now it seems that this is not true.

She is his crown princess.
