The daughter of the first wife is a little fierce: the war god prince loves her to the sky

Yesterday, when she heard that the Crown Princess had become that girl from the Liu family, she felt like the sky had fallen. She also started to dislike Xie and Bai Chuwan. She could only secretly curse them for being incompetent and unable to win the Crown Prince's heart.

Then there was news that the eldest girl was kidnapped by a flower thief, and the Bai family's reputation was ruined. She wished that Bai Chuxiao would die outside and not come back, so that she would not be criticized in the future.

But seeing the attitude of the eldest princess's people and the Prince of Yan today, she was glad that she still had this eldest girl. Bai Chuwan was now considered useless, and it would be good for the family to have a concubine of the Prince of Yan. At least the face of the Left Prime Minister's Mansion was saved.

Bai Chuxiao replied calmly, "Grandma, my granddaughter and His Royal Highness Prince Yan are naturally on good terms. I was so excited chatting with the eldest princess yesterday that I forgot to inform my family."

"It's okay, I'm glad you're back. I'm relieved to see that you're safe and sound." Bai Linnan looked like a loving father, which made Bai Chuxiao confused again. What happened to everyone today? They didn't have this attitude in the past.

But who knows? Bai Linan was also feeling lucky that he had this eldest daughter around, so he wouldn't be too embarrassed. It would be fine if the Crown Princess was someone else, but she had to be from the Right Prime Minister's family, who had always been at odds with him. His Right Prime Minister's daughter became the Crown Princess, but his Left Prime Minister's daughter couldn't just flatter him and become a concubine. How could he put his old face like that?

So when he came back yesterday, he warned Bai Chuwan and Xie not to contact the prince anymore. If the right prime minister knew about this, he would definitely laugh at him.

"In a month, Xiao will be coming of age. We need to organize this ceremony well. After the ceremony, the wedding date with Prince Yan can be set as soon as possible," the old lady said kindly.

Bai Linan actually agreed, "Mother is right, Xie, you heard it, right? We need to be more careful this time and do it well. It's time for the Left Prime Minister's Mansion to be lively again."

Xie replied reluctantly, Bai Chuwan has been quiet for a long time since yesterday. She can't be the Crown Princess, and her father doesn't want her to be a concubine, and he doesn't allow her to have any contact with the Crown Prince. Now she has to watch Bai Chuxiao succeed. Didn't her father always dislike her eldest sister? Now he wants to hold a grand coming-of-age ceremony for her. What does this mean?

Bai Linnan had more to think about. His Zuo Xiang Mansion couldn't remain silent. First, he wanted to make use of the coming-of-age ceremony to make the Zuo Xiang Mansion lively. Second, it would be good to set a wedding date with the King of Yan as soon as possible to avoid any accidents in the future. Moreover, he didn't know whether his eldest daughter knew about what happened back then, or how much she knew. It would be better to put on a show now and send her away as soon as possible so that he could feel at ease.

Bai Chuxiao looked at Bai Linan's current attitude and sneered in her heart. Did they want to just brush aside what happened back then and pretend it never happened? How could that be possible? She had plenty of time to play with them slowly, but there were some things she still had to clarify first.

After a day's rest, Bai Chuxiao took Qingshuang and Qingzhu out to her second uncle's house. They should have gone there a long time ago.

When we arrived at Murong Mansion, my second brother was already waiting at the door.

"You, you didn't even come over to say hello to us yesterday, you just went shopping and eating with that King Yan, you're really a grown-up girl."

Bai Chuxiao also felt a little embarrassed, "I was thinking that when my second brother comes back, I will explain it to my second uncle and second aunt."

After entering the front hall, Bai Chuxiao bowed and said with a smile, "Xiaoxiao greets second uncle and second aunt."

Murong Cheng said angrily, "You girl, you still came here. I thought you didn't even remember that you have a second uncle in the capital."

Bai Chuxiao said in a coquettish tone, "How could that be? Second uncle and second aunt treat Xiaoxiao the best. Xiaoxiao will never forget you no matter who she forgets. Isn't it that I want to come back and get familiar with the situation in Beijing first?"

"Oh? Then tell me how well you know the capital, and why you are so familiar with the bandit's lair?"

"Okay, Master, Xiaoxiao finally got here. She was in such a dangerous situation the other day. I'm glad she's okay. Why are you talking about all this nonsense now?" The second aunt glared at Murong Cheng with some reproach.

Murong Cheng snorted, "Xiaoxiao, the capital is not like Dingzhou. It's a very complicated place. You should be able to understand it now. If you want to be the Princess of Yan, you can't be ignorant of everything."

"Xiao Xiao does have a lot of questions. I came here today to ask my uncle to tell me about the situation in the capital," Bai Chuxiao said seriously.

It was naturally not appropriate to talk about this kind of thing openly in the hall, so Murong Cheng took Bai Chuxiao to the study. Murong Xuan was also curious and wanted to listen along, while the second aunt closed the door, leaving space for them to talk properly.

"Just ask whatever you want to ask," Murong Cheng said in a deep voice.

"Xiaoxiao wants to know some things about the Murong family in the past. When I came back this time, I learned about the strange death of my mother, but I still don't understand. Can second uncle tell me about it?"

Murong Cheng sighed, "Your mother is not a weak woman, she is very strong. We actually don't believe that she would be depressed and wear down her body because of your father's change of heart, and eventually die of dystocia. We also have some vague guesses in our hearts, but your father is the left prime minister and he is not a poor boy when he first proposed to marry your mother..."

Then he asked, "Do you know the late queen?"

Bai Chuxiao nodded, "The late queen was born in the Qin family of the Duke Dingguo's mansion. I heard that my grandfather was a general under the old Duke Dingguo. When I entered the palace before, Concubine Wei and Concubine Jing mentioned my grandfather, but Xiaoxiao has never heard my grandfather mention these things. This is also what Xiaoxiao doesn't understand."

Murong Cheng then said in a deep voice, "This is a long story. There are many things involved in the past, so your grandfather didn't want to mention it to you young people. But since you are going to marry the King of Yan, it's time to know these things."

Back then, the country was divided into nine parts. Your Majesty was just a prince of the former Jin State, neither the eldest nor the heir. At that time, the country was in chaos and wars were going on everywhere to seize territory. Naturally, the Jin State would not stay in a corner. By chance, Your Majesty was favored by the daughter of the old Duke Dingguo, the former queen. Although there were many women around Your Majesty at that time, it was only then that the old Duke Dingguo supported him and brought him into the army.

The old Duke Dingguo was a master of military strategy, fighting wars in the south and the north. Your Majesty earned a lot of military merits by following him, and the late queen also accompanied Your Majesty in the battles all the way. Naturally, the other princes could not show weakness and also competed for the throne, but they all died on the battlefield. Only Your Majesty followed the old Duke Dingguo to destroy the Wei and Dai countries. At that time, the princes of Jin only had one young son left, who is now Prince An. Therefore, Your Majesty naturally sat on the throne and changed the country's name to Xia. The daughter of the old Duke Dingguo was naturally the well-deserved queen.

But the empire was just beginning to settle down, and the three powers of Xiyue, Beiyan, and Daxia were in a three-way confrontation. Your Majesty was worried, so the men of the old Duke Dingguo's family were sent to guard the north. Your grandfather, as one of the two fierce generals under the old Duke Dingguo, also accompanied Your Majesty in the battles all the way, so he was named Marquis of Xibo to guard the west, while the other general Wan was named Marquis of Quling to guard the safety of Kyoto.
