Remarry 9,000 Years Old

Chapter 22: Prince, I've Already Married

Just as Shen Nanqiao was making random guesses, he heard the Queen Mother speak again.

"The prince is now thirteen years old, it's time for him to look after the crown princess."

She felt relieved when she heard that, it turned out to be about this matter.

Ning Su took the scroll and took a look at it. The Queen Mother remained calm.

"How is it? Is he a complete child?"

Shen Nanqiao is well aware of the ins and outs of this. When wealthy families are looking for a girl, what matters is not her appearance but her background.

This is the case among the common people, let alone the royal family.

Since the Queen Mother said she was her niece's granddaughter, she naturally wanted the future Crown Princess to also be from the Sun family.

Others may not know, but she knows very well that the emperor is not her biological son, so she wants to arrange marriage with the prince while he is still young and easier to control.

This is how it is in the palace, one successor takes over, only then can the family ensure long-term prosperity.

Ning Su naturally understood what Empress Dowager Sun was thinking.

He slowly handed the scroll back.

"The Queen Mother's niece is naturally excellent."

But the Queen Mother did not allow him to practice Tai Chi.

"You are the prince's companion, can you show him?"

Ning Su chuckled.

"Since ancient times, marriages have been arranged by parents and matchmakers. The Queen Mother is his grandmother, so she is naturally closer to him than I am."

The Queen Mother had been in the harem for many years and sneered when she heard this.

"Don't bring your factory guards' tricks to my Cining Palace. I just want to ask you one question. Do you agree or not?"

Ning Su was able to climb from an unknown junior to a high-ranking official today, so naturally he is very good at dealing with things.

"It's useless for me to agree. The final decision on this matter still depends on the emperor." He looked at the queen mother's face, "But as for the crown prince, I can do my best."

The empress dowager also knew that Ning Su could not possibly control the crown prince's marriage. It would be fine if the emperor passed away, but the problem was that Emperor Ming was still alive and well.

But as long as Ning Su gives in, it means there is room for easing the situation.

This kid had already been in the East Factory before he was even twenty, and he actually sent away the seal of the then Chief of the Imperial Household Department.

Sitting in this position, the depth of his mind is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

He is not as eloquent as other eunuchs, but there is nothing he cannot accomplish.

The Queen Mother's expression softened a little.

"Just your words are enough. I am not trying to embarrass you. Just do your best and the rest is up to fate." She looked at Shen Nanqiao meaningfully, "Didn't your wife say that marriage is destined by heaven?"

Shen Nanqiao already understood almost everything at this point.

The harem, like the rear house, is also a battlefield, but the difference is that if this place is taken, it will be beneficial to Ning Su and not harmful.

"Please come to the East Palace. I will ask your wife to come to the palace to keep me company from time to time these days."

This is a threat.

Ning Su remained calm and nodded slightly.

The Queen Mother was quite satisfied with his attitude, so she let the two of them leave the Cining Palace.

As soon as he stepped out of the warm room, Ning Su steadied his body and turned around to look Shen Nanqiao up and down.

"You didn't suffer any loss before I came here, did you?"

Shen Nanqiao hurriedly shook his head, looked around to see that there was no one around, and spoke in a low voice.

"They want to use you to help her family get promoted. This is something that cannot be easily agreed to."

Ning Su suddenly pulled the person into his arms and whispered calmly.

"Let's talk outside if you have anything to say."

A familiar cold fragrance filled his nose. Shen Nanqiao subconsciously tried to distance himself, but was pulled back by Ning Su again.

"The Queen Mother has spies in the palace."

Shen Nanqiao didn't dare to move anymore.

The two of them walked forward slowly, and she took every step carefully, for fear of catching the attention of others.

Go around the rockery.

A group of people were walking towards us from afar.

The leader was a teenager who walked very fast, almost jogging.

The palace corridor was brightly lit, and the man's facial features quickly became clear.

He had a pair of big eyes like black grapes, and looked a bit thin. When he raised his hand to complain, he carried a bit of pride as if he had lived a life of luxury.

Although he is not very old, he has a very impressive demeanor.

Shen Nanqiao's heart skipped a beat: It's the prince!

Ning Su keenly noticed that her body stiffened, which was strange.

What kind of storms and waves has she not seen in the past few days? She has not shown any joy or anger on her face. Even just now in the Cining Palace, she responded with moderation and neither servility nor arrogance.

Why am I being embarrassed by a half-grown child now?

"Banban!" The boy's voice was a little hoarse, but his voice during the voice change period was not unpleasant.

Shen Nanqiao felt cold all over when he heard this cry.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see how attached the little prince is to Ning Su.

However, such a child, a few years later, had his elder brother killed.

How can this not be terrifying?

"Is this the new bride that Banban married?"

The prince was completely unaware of her surging emotions and continued to look at Ning Su.

Ning Su nodded slightly.

Shen Nanqiao forced himself to suppress the fear and panic in his heart, and saluted the prince properly.

What surprised her was that the hostility in the boy's eyes was not even concealed.

Isn't this the first time they meet?

Shen Nanqiao asked himself if he was a person who would offend others, and they had never dealt with each other before, so where did this hostility come from?

The short but tall and handsome young boy looked at her with his hands behind his back, and the disgust in his eyes had turned into criticism.

"You don't look that good, you're not worthy of being a companion."

Shen Nanqiao, who was still immersed in his own thoughts, raised his eyebrows in surprise when he heard this.

She has been a well-known beauty since she was a child. There are even people in the capital who rank the appearance of noble ladies.

Since she came of age, no one has ever pushed her out of the top spot.

This was the first time someone criticized her appearance.

However, what the prince said was not without reason. Ning Su was indeed too handsome. If he were not a eunuch, I am afraid that suitors would have already knocked on the door of his house.

Ning Su smiled but didn't smile.

"Your Highness, I have already married."

There is an obvious hint of protecting one's own shortcomings in these words.

The prince lowered his head in dismay, his face tense as hell, and finally uttered a word reluctantly.

"Congratulations then."

Ning Su bowed in return.

"Thank you, Your Highness." He glanced at Shen Nanqiao and said, "I am busy with trivial matters and I am afraid I cannot take care of my wife. If I enter the palace in the future, I hope Your Highness can help take care of her."

The expression of that little face so close to him changed rapidly, showing a bit of surprise at being trusted, and also a bit of disbelief.

"Don't worry, Banban. I will never let her suffer any loss."

After struggling for a while, it was already midnight when they left the palace.

Shen Nanqiao pondered over the prince's words just now. There seemed to be some love for the whole family in them, but it was unknown how much sincerity there was in that.

Ning Su seemed to know what she was thinking.

"After meeting the father and son in person, do you still feel that you need to be on guard?"

Shen Nanqiao was shocked and then remembered what she said when she returned home today.

Could it be that he deliberately let him see the emperor and his son with his own eyes to dispel his doubts?

She was horrified. How could this be possible? Even if he had the power to reach the sky, he might not be able to plan everything so perfectly!

She stared at Ning Su with an expression of disbelief.

"Everything that happened today was deliberately arranged by you?"

Ning Su did not comment.

"What do you think, madam?"
