The General and the Princess

Xiao Ningxin's Jiji ceremony lasted for a long time, Xiao Yinxue went to the Empress Dowager's Palace to talk with the Empress Dowager for a while.

When the two left the palace, it was already dark.

"Was the princess Jiji's day as grand as it is today?" Di Shengyue asked Xiao Yinxue.

Xiao Yinxue nodded. Although she is not favored, she is still the eldest princess. The palace people dare not treat her harshly in the face of things.

On the one hand, the princess's ceremony is to show the noble status of the princess, and on the other hand, it is also to let the imperial court wife take a look at the princess's appearance, so that she can come to discuss relatives.

"Princess, with your appearance, why haven't you discussed marriage since Jiji?" Di Shengyue picked up a strand of Xiao Yinxue's hair, played with it in her hands, looked into her eyes, and said with a smile, "It's because, Does your heart belong?"

Knowing what Di Shengyue was referring to, Xiao Yinxue's cheeks blushed, and she pulled her hair out of Di Shengyue's hands with a bit of embarrassment, "Don't be complacent."

The smile in Di Shengyue's eyes deepened.

The carriage stopped just in front of the Princess Mansion.

Xiao Yinxue got off the carriage in a hurry.

As soon as Xiao Yinxue entered the mansion, she was shocked by the scene in front of her.

The branches on both sides are covered with all kinds of lanterns, illuminating the whole road.

Small lanterns are placed on both sides of the path, like stars, illuminating the whole road.

"You got someone to do it?" Xiao Yinxue turned her head to look at Di Shengyue who was slowly walking into her.

"On the first day, I saw that the princess liked it, so I asked someone to arrange it." Di Shengyue smiled and said.

Xiao Yinxue was a little moved when she heard the words, Di Shengyue really remembered everything she said.

"Princess, go and have a look at the wing." Di Shengyue pointed to the location of the wing.

The lights in the room were not bright.

Xiao Yinxue pushed open the door of the wing room, and there was a delicate revolving lantern at the door, with portraits of Xiao Yinxue painted on it.

As soon as the door was pushed open, the cold wind poured in from the outside, blowing the revolving lantern and spinning it, Xiao Yinxue's silhouette printed on the surrounding walls also kept changing its movements.

"This is a revolving lantern that I asked famous craftsmen in Beijing to make overnight." Di Shengyue asked Luoxiang to close the door, and the silhouette became more and more obvious in the dim room. Di Shengyue grabbed Xiao Yinxue from behind Hugging her, leaning her chin on Xiao Yinxue's shoulder, "Does the princess still like it? I didn't have a chance to give you a gift when you were young, so I used this to make up for it today. Look, princess, is it okay?"

"I like it very much." Knowing that this person truly loves her, Xiao Yinxue's heart seemed to be coated with honey.

"It's just that I'm the only one in these silhouettes. It's too lonely." Xiao Yinxue said, turning to look at Di Shengyue, accidentally touching her lips.

As if bewitched, Xiao Yinxue took the initiative to deepen the kiss.

"Princess, I really love you." Di Shengyue's hoarse voice was full of affection.

"En." Xiao Yinxue responded in a low voice.

Xiao Yinxue was gently placed beside the revolving lantern by Di Shengyue.

Under the dim candlelight, Xiao Yinxue couldn't see Di Shengyue's face clearly, but she could feel the warmth of her palm touching her cheek.

When she leaned over to kiss herself, there was tenderness in her eyes.

Her eyes were a little watery, her lips were slightly parted, and she let out a low voice.

Xiao Yinxue felt a little ashamed, she bit her lower lip lightly, but Di Shengyue's fingertips touched her lips, pressed against her bright teeth, and pried them open little by little.

Can't hold back my voice.

Xiao Yinxue took the initiative to wrap her arms around Di Shengyue's shoulders, raised her upper body slightly, and begged Di Shengyue for a kiss.

Di Shengyue looked at her dotingly, and kissed her lips tenderly.

Xiao Yinxue held on to the lantern beside her impatiently, moving the revolving lantern with her trembling fingertips.

The silhouettes on the wall are constantly changing postures.

"Princess, look at our silhouette." Di Shengyue asked Xiao Yinxue to open her eyes and look at the surrounding walls.

Xiao Yinxue opened her eyes and looked around.

At some point, another figure appeared on the wall, suppressing Xiao Yinxue's silhouette in the corner, tightly entangled with each other.

"Is it like what we are now?" Di Shengyue laughed.

No matter how you look at this silhouette, you feel ashamed.

Xiao Yinxue said shyly, "It's not like that."

"It's really not interesting." Di Shengyue smiled, and suddenly turned a lantern vigorously, and the lantern spun quickly, and the silhouette of Xiao Yinxue on the wall also changed movements quickly.

"What are you doing!" Xiao Yinxue's breathing became disordered all of a sudden, and the hand on Di Shengyue's shoulder also used quite a bit of strength.

The thin red on Xiao Yinxue's cheeks quickly turned into a deep bright color.

Xiao Yinxue opened her mouth wide, tears were forced out of the corners of her eyes.

Xiao Yinxue scratched randomly with her small hands, and she grabbed the belt on Di Shengyue's head.

Di Shengyue's black hair cascaded down.

"Didn't the princess say it doesn't look like it? I just reflected on it," Di Shengyue said with a smile, "Indeed, it's a bit slower."

With Di Shengyue's chuckle, the loose strands of hair flicked quickly.

The silhouette on the wall trembled more and more.

In the past few days, there was a heated discussion in Beijing because of Xiao Ning's heart-to-heart discussion.

However, the Shangshu Mansion suddenly released news that young talents from various families were required to participate in the literary competition and recruit relatives through literary competition.

When Di Shengyue heard the news, she couldn't help laughing: "It seems that this daughter of Shang Shu's concubine can't bear to be harassed by the second prince."

After hearing that the second prince went to Yuan Festival, he went to propose marriage many times.

"It's a pity that Wendou invited only men." Di Shengyue shook her head and said regretfully, "Otherwise, I really want to join in the fun."

"Why are you joining in the fun? It's because you've taken a fancy to Miss Shen, right?" Xiao Yinxue curled her lips and said.

"Princess, what are you thinking?" Di Shengyue said with a light smile, "I'm just a little interested in Shang Shuling's choice. I heard that Shang Shuling met the third and fourth princes in the teahouse two days ago."

It seems to be choosing one of the two princes.

"Who do you think is more likely?" Xiao Yinxue looked at Di Shengyue, expecting her answer.

"From the present point of view, the third prince still has Xiao Ningxin who can marry at any time." Di Shengyue smiled and said, "The empress is the head of the East Palace."

At least on the surface now, the third prince has much more bargaining chips than the fourth prince.

The Wendou competition ended very quickly, and the result came out at the time of Chen.

Di Shengyue was about to drink tea, when she suddenly heard the result, she couldn't help being surprised, her hand shook slightly, and the tea spilled out.

"It seems that your guess is not very accurate." Xiao Yinxue laughed, took the teacup from Di Shengyue, put it on the table, and wiped Di Shengyue's hands with a silk handkerchief .

"Say it again, who won?" Di Shengyue asked Luo Xiang again.

"Back to the son-in-law." Luo Xiang said, "It's the second prince."

"This is really strange." Di Shengyue picked up the teapot, poured herself another cup of tea, and said, "Did Shang Shuling actually choose the second prince?"

"When I heard about Wendou's last question, Ms. Shen insisted on asking the question herself." Luo Xiang said, "All the talented scholars couldn't answer it, but the second prince was able to answer it."

"It seems that the second prince has gained a resourceful adviser recently." Di Shengyue rubbed her chin and thought.

How could Ms. Shen come up with the question herself for no reason, and let the second prince get the answer right? If there was no second prince's means, she would definitely not believe it.

"It's unexpected that he took a slanted sword this time." Xiao Yinxue said.

Everyone was trying to figure out a way on Shang Shuling, only the second prince laid hands on Miss Shen.

"But I'm afraid he will be disappointed." Di Shengyue smiled and said, "Shang Shuling, this old fox, is so easy to fool."

"You mean there is a reversal in this matter?" Xiao Yinxue looked at Di Shengyue with curiosity in her eyes.

Di Shengyue kissed her lightly on the small mouth, and said with a smile, "Princess, we will wait and see."

"You can't say everything every time." Xiao Yinxue complained.

"Don't the princess think it's more interesting to explore by herself?" Di Shengyue laughed.

"I think it's more interesting to search for you." Xiao Yinxue glanced at Di Shengyue and said.

"The princess is still so ambitious." Di Shengyue smiled, and had long been used to Xiao Yinxue's big words, "It's just that I don't think my search for the princess is deep enough."

Xiao Yinxue's cheeks turned red suddenly, and she gave her a hard look, isn't that deep enough!

How far do you want to go in depth!

"No shame or shame."

"Princess, what I mean is that I want to explore the princess's past." Di Shengyue smiled and said, "I want to know more about the princess's life. Why don't you feel ashamed? Could it be the princess's past? Are you not ashamed?"

"Shut up for this princess!"

On the second day, news came from the palace.

The emperor made a decree to bestow a marriage on the second prince, to marry Shangshu's prostitute's daughter, Shen Shiyun, to the second prince as his concubine, and to choose a date to get married.

He also gave the second prince a house outside the palace.

When Di Shengyue heard the news, she was slightly taken aback. How could Shang Shuling, an old fox, compromise so easily.

Xiao Yinxue looked at her puzzled look, chuckled lightly, and said, "Isn't it very unexpected? You said you wanted me to wait and see, but you were the first to be surprised."

"Princess knows what's going on?" Seeing Xiao Yinxue's appearance, Di Shengyue knew that she understood the way, and asked, "Princess is very smart, please explain to me."

"On the Shangyuan Festival, the daughter of the Shen family that we met was named Shen Shihan." Xiao Yinxue said with a little smugness as her dark eyes moved.

Di Shengyue suddenly understood the meaning of Xiao Yinxue's coming, and Shang Shuling was preparing Li Daitao to freeze.

"Then who is this Shen Shiyun?" Di Shengyue asked.

"Her biological mother was originally the main wife of Shang Shuling, but she was dismissed by Shang Shuling because her mother's family was convicted of a crime and her entire family was beheaded. Come on." Xiao Yinxue said slowly, "Because she is the daughter of the guilty minister's daughter, Shang Shuling seldom mentioned this concubine daughter and son to the outside world. After Shang Shuling straightened the concubine, Shen Shihan became a legitimate concubine daughter. If it wasn't for this incident, I would have forgotten that Shang Shuling still has such a daughter."

Marrying Shen Shihan and Shen Shiyun are completely different things.

"Could it be the case of Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry that caused a sensation ten years ago?" Di Shengyue recalled that there seemed to be only one such case that caused a sensation in the past.

She was in the north at that time, and she only heard about it vaguely, but the specific content was not very clear.

"Yes, that's the one." Xiao Yinxue nodded.

"Second brother is going to die of anger now." Xiao Yinxue couldn't help laughing when he thought of the expression on the second prince's expression when he heard the news.

Concubine Rou had a grudge against her, but seeing the Second Prince deflated, she was still in a good mood.

"I heard that concubine Rou asked to see the emperor several times, but she was turned away." Luo Xiang said, "The second prince also has an extremely ugly face."

"It deserves it," Xiao Yinxue sneered, "His little cleverness is just self-righteous."

"I heard that the second prince took two concubines as soon as he returned." Luo Xiang continued, "I completely disregarded Shang Shuling's face. But Shang Shuling didn't say anything."

"This matter was originally caused by Shang Shuling's wrongdoing, so naturally he turned his eyes and closed his eyes." Di Shengyue said, shaking her head: "This Miss Shen is also a poor person."

"I heard that Shen Shiyun is timid and cowardly." Xiao Yinxue said, with a hint of pity in her eyes, "If you marry her, I'm afraid she will be oppressed and bullied by the concubine's room."

Di Shengyue didn't say much either.

The auspicious day chosen by the palace is very close, just a few days later.

When the second prince got married, his face was dark all the time.
