Yixiu is reborn, fights against her elder sister, and becomes the queen mother

Tong Jia Suyue frowned slightly and asked, "Granddaughter is stupid, what does grandfather mean?"

Longkodo twirled his beard, raised his eyebrows and smiled proudly, "I will go to visit His Royal Highness the Crown Prince later. You come with me."

Tong Jia Suyue raised her eyes in shock, somewhat incredulous.

In this era, the requirements for unmarried women were still very strict. Although the Manchu nobles did not have as many rules as the Han people, as an unmarried princess, isn't it a bit too much for me to follow my grandfather to visit the prince?

Seeing that Tong Jia Suyue was somewhat reluctant, Longkodo spoke slowly and directly, saying, "Why? Are you ashamed? Have you forgotten all the principles your grandfather taught you? Those pedantic rules are just fooling fools. Those who achieve great things don't care about trivial matters. As long as the Crown Prince is determined to make you the Crown Princess, what's the big deal?"

Back then, Ulanara had even gone to the extent of secretly having an affair in order to get her daughter into the emperor's bed. I was just bringing my granddaughter to visit him, and everything I said and did was in accordance with the rules. Who would dare to say a word?

Tong Jia Suyue knew that her grandfather had made up his mind and could not change it, so she could only nod woodenly.

"Then I, your granddaughter, will go and make preparations. I will definitely live up to your trust."

If it were in the past, Tong Jia Suyue would naturally be willing to take such a good opportunity.

As long as he goes to see the prince, there is a chance that the prince will take a liking to him.

But now, Tong Jia Suyue's heart is full of contradictions. She hopes that the prince will like her and make her the crown princess, so as to live up to her family's careful education over the years.

On the other hand, Tong Jia Suyue hopes that the prince does not like her.

She already had someone else in her heart, although she didn't know who that person was. But that day in the restaurant, that person's eyebrows and eyes were so handsome. Although that person's voice was a little hoarse, it was very gentle and he always considered her.

Thinking of this, Tong Jia Suyue couldn't help but blush with shame, but when she turned around, she was shocked by the thought in her mind.

What stupid thing did I do just now?

My family has raised me up and spent so much effort, how could they let me marry an ordinary person?

Tong Jia Suyue couldn't help but smile bitterly, then she realized that listening in the golden cage was not as good as the free crying in the forest.

Although he seemed to be of noble birth, he was actually just a bird in a cage and a chess piece in his hand, and he had no control over his own destiny.

After Tong Jia Suoyue got dressed, she followed Longkodo and brought gifts to the East Palace to visit the prince.

After all, Longkodo still had evidence that the prince and Nian Gengyao were rebelling, and the prince could not turn him away, so he had to meet with Longkodo.

East Palace

Longkodo and Tongjia Suyue knelt on the ground politely and saluted the Crown Prince, saying, "Your servant Longkodo pays his respects to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. May Your Royal Highness be blessed with good health. I heard that the Crown Prince was assassinated and seriously injured. I was very worried, so I brought my granddaughter to visit him."

The prince also saw Tong Jia Suyue following behind Longkodo, and he took a quick look at her out of curiosity.

This woman was indeed a beauty, with a pretty face, dignified manners, and proper movements. Even her facial expression and the style of her hair were perfect.

The prince grew up in the palace and has seen all kinds of beauties.

The women in the harem were just like Tong Jia Suoyue, they behaved appropriately and in a well-behaved manner. Because of this, Tong Jia Suoyue did not make the prince feel any different.

Tong Jia Shuyue spoke gently, "Your servant Tong Jia Shuyue wishes to hear how His Royal Highness is doing. I heard that His Royal Highness is injured, so I prepared some medicine for him. I hope it will be of use to him."

The prince nodded and said, "Thank you very much, Princess Tonggia. Come, please give Lord Longkodo and Princess Tonggia a seat."

Several palace maids came forward and brought stools for Longkodo and Tong Jiashuyue, and took away the medicine prepared for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Longkodo came this time to match his granddaughter with the prince, so he said a few words to the prince and prepared to say goodbye, leaving Tong Jia Suyue and the prince some time to talk.

"Please forgive me, Your Highness. This is such an unfortunate coincidence. I suddenly remembered that the Empress Dowager summoned me to the palace this morning for an urgent matter. Shuyue is a girl, and I am worried about her going home alone, so I'm sorry to trouble Your Highness to look after her."

After saying this, Longkodo stood up and was about to bow and leave.

Tong Jia Suyue pinched her sleeves nervously. She looked at the prince cautiously, her beautiful eyes full of confusion and worry.

The prince said helplessly, "In that case, Lord Longkodo should hurry and do his work. However, Tonggia Gege is a girl after all, so Lord Longkodo should hurry back after finishing his work. If Tonggia Gege stays here for too long, it will inevitably damage her reputation."

Longkodo said with a smile: "I thank Your Highness the Crown Prince for his grace."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

As soon as Longkodo left, the prince and Tong Jia Suyue became even more embarrassed.

After all, Tong Jia Suoyue is the legitimate daughter of the Tong Jia family who has been carefully cultivated for many years, so she is quite adept at handling these scenes.

As she and the prince chatted back and forth, the atmosphere was quite lively.

However, if you look closely at their expressions, you can see that they are both agreeing with each other, but in fact they are full of alienation and resistance.

"Your Highness is a young and talented man. I read your article 'On Open Ports' and found your ideas to be truly ingenious. I admire them deeply."

"Oh, really? All the ministers in the court think I'm violating the ancestral rules. I didn't expect Princess Tonggia to have such a different opinion."

Tong Jia Suyue lowered her head and smiled. "I'm a dull person, so I can't say I have any insights. But when I was young, I went to the south with my family. I noticed that most places near coastal ports have very prosperous economies. This has always been the case throughout the dynasties. I do think that Your Highness's insights are quite unique, and perhaps one day they can be put into practice."

After the prince had a conversation with Tong Jia Suyue, he changed his opinion of her. He originally thought that she was just a well-behaved girl from a wealthy family, but he didn't expect that she was so knowledgeable.

The prince couldn't help but feel a little regretful. If Tong Jia Suoyue was a boy, he would have become an official in the future and his future would be limitless!

As the two were talking, a palace maid came over and whispered in the Crown Prince's ear, "Your Highness, something bad has happened. Young Master Chen suddenly wants to leave, and we can't stop him."

After the prince brought Zhou Xiuniang back, he repeatedly instructed everyone in the Eastern Palace not to make things difficult for him or look down on him.

Zhou Xiuniang insisted on leaving, and the palace maids and eunuchs could not stop her, so they had to report the news to the prince.

The prince frowned. He really wanted to subdue Brother Chen and use him for his own purposes, but it seemed that Brother Chen was preoccupied and was always indifferent to him.
