As soon as Shen You fell down, the queen came with her palace maids.

The Queen had Shen You taken away and asked the palace maid to dress up Zhou Ning.

"Aning, I'm really sorry for you. If you can help You'er get through this difficult time, I will definitely help Bai Zhao to have a smooth career in the government, and in the future I will also let you get an imperial decree to bring honor to your family." said the Queen.

Zhou Ning was also hiding the poison needles in her jewelry, and said, "What the Queen said is so unreasonable. It was clearly my contribution, why didn't she reward me but Ah Zhao instead?"

The queen was choked by Zhou Ning, but she was not angry. Instead, she smiled and said, "Then tell me, what do you want?"

Zhou Ning said: "All I want is for my family to be safe, nothing more."

With the princess's marriage, the diplomatic relations between the two countries became more grand and solemn.

On this day, snow was falling all over the sky. Everyone in the capital knew that a princess was getting married. However, her marriage was not to the well-known Princess Changle, but to the Princess Anding, whom no one had ever heard of.

Zhou Ning bid farewell to the emperor and empress according to etiquette, got on the sedan chair, and accompanied the 588 people who carried the dowry.

Most of the dowry was filled with impostors, including quite a few weapons.

The palace maids and guards who came with the dowry were mostly assassins.

The task given by Shen Lin was to follow Yu He's command and find the right time to kill Kong Sanghai.

During the break, Kong Sangling came to see the bride, but found it was Zhou Ning, and asked in surprise: "Didn't she say she was a princess? Why is it you?"

Zhou Ning explained: "I am also a princess, Princess Anding."

"That's great." Kong Sang Ling smiled, "From now on you will be my sister-in-law. We are a family. If you are not used to anything or feel unhappy, just come to me."

Zhou Ning agreed on the surface. It was impossible for her to become friends with this princess. After all, she would kill her brother soon.

Kong Sangling took out two oranges and put them in Zhou Ning's hands, her eyes sparkling: "I heard that you feel nauseous and uncomfortable, you will feel better if you eat two."

Zhou Ning was carsick and felt unwell, but no one in the team cared. Even Kong Sanghai thought it was a trivial matter and did not come to visit Zhou Ning.

She didn't expect that Her Royal Highness the Princess would care about her.

Looking at Kong Sangling's somewhat immature face, Zhou Ningrou calmed down and asked, "How old are you?"

Kong Sangling smiled and said, "Fifteen, how about you?"

Zhou Ning smiled and shook her head: "A little younger than you, almost fifteen.

"It is not easy for a woman to marry far away. You are so young now and have to leave your hometown. If you have anything unhappy, you must tell me. I will stay with you even in the middle of the night." Kong Sangling's words were very sincere, as if she really regarded Zhou Ning as a family member.

Facing the sincere Kong Sang Ling, Zhou Ning felt guilty for the first time.

Along the way, people from both countries were very busy and in a hurry to get on with their journey.

Botu planned to go to the border and use the name of marriage to let the soldiers of Daqian on the border open a path, and then attack Daqian in one fell swoop.

Shen Lin was thinking of taking advantage of the situation and communicating with the generals at the border in advance to kill Botu and the prince.

In this way, even if Yang Wu cannot be seriously injured, at least he can have a deterrent effect.

Everyone wanted to complete the plan quickly, and the journey was very tight. Zhou Ning took a lot of antiemetics, but he still kept vomiting and couldn't eat anything.

Fortunately, Zhou Ning was really not feeling well and didn't stay with Kong Sanghai for long, so Kong Sanghai didn't notice anything wrong with Zhou Ning.

When they arrived at the border, the one who greeted the marriage delegation was Lieutenant General Chen under Cui Zhien. No, now it should be said that it was General Chen.

General Chen was a little surprised to see that it was Zhou Ning, but then he remembered the task the emperor had given him and said, "Your Highness, may your Highness live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years."

Zhou Ning said: "General Chen, please stand up."

"Your Highness, do you want to cross the border now?" General Chen said, "After you cross Suiping Pass, you will reach Yangwu. Why don't you stay and let me see you off?"

Zhou Ning looked at Kong Sanghai with embarrassment and said, "Hai, can you stay and let me accompany the soldiers for a meal? After all, I may never have the chance to set foot on my homeland again."

Seeing Zhou Ning being so ignorant, Kong Sanghai frowned and said, "Father is in Yangwu preparing for the wedding, so we should not waste time and delay the wedding."

Kong Sangling glared at her brother and came over to smooth things over: "Brother Wang, can't you be more considerate of your sister-in-law?"

Botu thought that he could implement his plan while the soldiers were drinking, so he advised: "Your Highness, it's okay to drink a little. It won't delay the marriage."

Kong Sanghai then reluctantly agreed.

General Chen smiled and said, "Your Highnesses, please."

At the banquet, as a princess, Zhou Ning sat in the main seat.

But Kong Sanghai was not happy. He liked weak women, women who respected their husbands, and did not like women who were superior to him.

Kong Sanghai immediately gave Zhou Ning face: "Thinking back to the time when Her Royal Highness the Princess always relied on me in every way, now that her husband is here, she is sitting on the main seat."

Zhou Ning suppressed her anger and lowered her head to pretend to be weak: "This is the territory of Daqian, so naturally... I am the one sitting on the main seat, but you are right, you are here, so I naturally have to respect you."

"How about this? I'll leave and you'll take the main seat. This way, neither of us will lose face. What do you think?"

Zhou Ning seemed to give in in every way, and Kong Sanghai was slightly satisfied and said, "Okay, let's do this for now."

Zhou Ning left the banquet, returned to his room, and wiped his bow and arrow.

Just now Yuhe told her that General Chen was about to cooperate with them.

The banquet was poisoned. In addition to his own people, Zhou Ning also gave Kong Sang Ling the antidote under the pretext of giving her a gift.

These days, Zhou Ning has found out Kong Sang Ling's background clearly. Since she doesn't know martial arts, she will not have any impact on the overall situation.

Zhou Ning ordered Yu He not to kill Kong Sang Ling but to keep her alive. She would then ask the emperor to spare her life, which would be a reward for Kong Sang Ling's selfless devotion to her over the past few days.

Unexpectedly, not long after, there was a knock on the door.

Zhou Ning's heart skipped a beat. Just now, Yu He and the other secret guards had gone to cooperate with General Chen. Who would be knocking on the door at this time?

"Ning, it's me." Kong Sanghai's voice came.

Zhou Ning was afraid that she would arouse Kong Sanghai's suspicion, so she opened the door and asked, "Why are you here?"

Kong Sanghai asked his men to take out a food box and said, "I saw that you didn't eat much just now, so I thought of bringing you some."

In fact, Kong Sangling discovered that Zhou Ning seemed unhappy, so she used threats and inducements to get her brother to coax her future sister-in-law.

Kong Sanghai has always been indifferent to other women, but he can't do anything about his own sister.
