The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

Chapter 1388 Youning goes to ask Zhong Siyu

As soon as Huang Chenming left, Cheng Youning sat back in his chair angrily and pounded his sore legs. Qiao Rong, who was perceptive, immediately stepped forward to massage Cheng Youning's legs.

"Don't be so nervous. Go find out where Zhuoyang has gone. This headgear has cost me a lot of money. I'm at a big loss."

He couldn't find out Bajiao's whereabouts in the morning, and he couldn't find out Princess Zhuoyang's whereabouts at this time either. When Cheng Youning was reciting, Qiao Rong came back. Seeing Qiao Rong's depressed look, Cheng Youning knew that he had gained nothing.

Cheng Youning said to Qiao Rong, "Tell someone to go back to the Prince's Mansion and bring back the new set of women's headgear!"

"Your Highness, what is the purpose of taking that headgear?"

"This prince has his own use, just send someone to get it."

Not wanting to fail again and again, Qiao Rong quickly asked someone to bring the headgear that Cheng Youning had obtained from Princess Zhuoyang.

Cheng Youning touched the wooden box that contained the head ornaments. He knew how luxurious and rare the things inside were. "Let's go to my grandmother's place!"

When Cheng Youning arrived, Zhong Siyu was doing needlework, "Good luck to you, little grandma!"

"Youning is out of school?"

"My grandson has been out of school for a while, and he has memorized the book!"

Zhong Siyu pointed at the chair, and Cheng Youning sat down opposite Zhong Siyu with a smile, "Little Madam, let the servants do the needlework, why do you have to endure this hardship."

Zhong Siyu used scissors to cut the thread in her hand and unfolded the clothes. "Can the sewing done by others be the same as that done by my grandma? Youning, try it on!"

"Grandma, this is the clothes you made for your grandson! I just thought it was sewing for my grandpa!"

Cheng Youning obediently took off her coat and put on the silver gown that Zhong Siyu had sewed for her. After tying the belt, Cheng Youning took a closer look and said, "Grandma, you have really skillful hands. The size is just right and the embroidery is also good. Hey... this dress looks familiar to me, as if someone has worn this style before!"

Qiao Rong reminded him, "The emperor has one that is similar to the one the prince is wearing."

Cheng Youning grinned: "Really, little grandma, my little grandpa's dress was also sewn by you yourself!"

Zhong Siyu looked at Cheng Youning wearing the clothes she had sewed herself, which was so pleasing to the eye, and she was happy in her heart, "They were all embroidered by grandma, the styles are similar, only the belt and the neckline are different."

Cheng Youning reached out and touched the Pisces pattern on his collar, then looked at his Pisces belt. It was very beautiful. What he didn't know was that the Pisces pattern meant many children and good fortune. It was Zhong Siyu's good wishes and expectations for him.

"Grandma, your grandson has something for you too!"

Zhong Siyu had already noticed the big wooden box in Qiao Rong's hand. She smiled and said, "The things in the box are not for grandma, right?"

"That's right, grandma is really smart."

Like Wan Lianxing, Cheng Youning can always easily make Zhong Siyu happy.

Cheng Youning took out the amazingly exquisite headpiece from the wooden box. The worldly-wise Zhong Siyu was also stunned by it, "What a rare headpiece!"

Cheng Youning was delighted to see that Zhong Siyu liked it, "Grandma, you like it!"

Who doesn't like good things? Zhong Siyu gently touched the string of pearls in the phoenix's mouth and said, "How beautiful!"

But she was still rational. "Youning, this headgear belongs to the royal family, but it was not begged by us. Where did you get it from?"

Cheng Youning said with some pride: "Zhuoyang asked me to help her with something, so she gave me this headdress."

After hearing about Princess Zhuoyang's things, Zhong Siyu's surprise faded a little, "Grandson, although this thing is good, little grandma can't accept it!"

Women all like beautiful headwear, but this thing came from Princess Zhuoyang, which was a different matter. Even if Zhong Siyu liked it very much, she would not wear it on her head. She was a beggared queen and had countless good things, so she had no shortage of headwear.

What's more, she and Princess Zhuoyang are love rivals. Although such words are difficult to say, they have become a knot in her heart.

Cheng Youning, who was unaware of the grudges between the adults, kindly picked up the headpiece and compared it to Zhong Siyu, saying with a smile: "Little grandma, it looks good. You have fair skin and beautiful looks, and you are the only one who deserves this headpiece."

Zhong Siyu took the headpiece with a smile, gently put it back into the wooden box, and said earnestly: "Youning, young lady knows that you are filial. This headpiece is indeed a rare and good thing. But in a few years you will be old enough to marry a wife and concubines. You should keep this thing to make up for your wife and concubines."

Cheng Youning was about to burst her mouth with words, and Zhong Siyu didn't even bother to show off her appearance. "Youning, you came to see grandma and you have something to say!"

"Grandma, my grandpa wants to marry Bajiao to the southern Yan Kingdom without my permission. I think it's inappropriate. If Bajiao marries over there, what will happen to Zhuoyang?"

"Princess Zhuoyang can only stay with us and beg for mercy."

"She stays in our Fengqi. She is from Dalang and is going to marry the Southern Emperor. Shouldn't she get married? Why does she stay in our Fengqi?" Cheng Youning's beautiful eyebrows were twisted together because he couldn't figure it out.

Zhong Siyu answered the question irrelevantly: "You and she are good friends. Are you unhappy that she stayed in Fengqi?"

"How can she stay? It's because she stays that Bajiao will be forced to marry in her place, right?" Cheng Youning seemed to have figured out something. "If I exchange her with Bajiao, I will lose a lot. Bajiao is very helpful in my prince's mansion. She has been taking care of my grandson for the past few years. My grandson doesn't want her to marry far away, and Bajiao doesn't want to marry far away either!"

Obviously, Cheng Youning was very dissatisfied with Bajiao's marriage substitution.

"Youning, you are the crown prince, you must support the decisions made by the emperor. Your grandfather has already made the decision on this matter, and it won't change. You should stop making trouble, so as not to make him angry."

"Can't grandma help her grandson persuade grandpa?"

"Grandma can advise on other matters, but I can't say anything about Princess Zhuoyang's affairs!"

"why?"

"Because your grandfather and Princess Zhuoyang are old acquaintances, and Princess Zhuoyang loves your grandfather very much and is willing to die for him, so it is not convenient for me to say more about the things between them." As the queen of a country and as Cheng Youning's elder, Zhong Siyu could only tell him this much.

"Dalang surrendered to the Southern Yan Kingdom and offered Zhuoyang as a marriage partner to seek peace. Zhuoyang was already halfway through her marriage, how could she be replaced? Why was the replacement the head maid of my Prince Fengqi? This doesn't make sense. There is a real Zhuoyang, why use a fake one to marry her off? What benefit does it bring to my Fengqi to pass off a fake as the real one?"
