Abandoned daughter takes charge of the family, so rich that even the best people can't envy

Song Jinxiu suddenly said, "That's not right?"

Liu Renxiu rubbed his forehead with a headache and asked, "What's wrong?"

Before his death, his sister Princess Enyi had begged him to make the decision on Su Mo's marriage, and repeatedly emphasized that Kang Ning was not suitable.

If I grant you the marriage, my sister won’t be happy even in her grave, right?

But if the marriage is not granted, can the two children be separated now that they are in this state?

Song Jinxiu explained, "Your Majesty, Princess Kangning went to see the Duke of Zhenguo only twenty days ago. It would have taken more than a month for this woman to be pregnant to be discovered."

"Are you saying that the Grand Princess is deceiving the emperor?"

"I don't know. If you want to know the truth, why not order the Duke of Zhenguo to come to the capital? You can ask him in person and find out the truth."

Humph! It better be fake, otherwise...

Song Jinxiu gritted her teeth secretly and said, Su Mo, just wait for me.

"Well, then send him 800 miles quickly and have him return to the capital as soon as possible so that he can attend the Queen Mother's birthday banquet."

After leaving the palace, Song Jinxiu was in a very irritable mood. The cabbage that was originally in her hand seemed to have been taken away by another family's pig.

Is this dish still edible?

For two consecutive days, Song Jinxiu had a tense face, and the court officials all felt a little uncomfortable. Was Little Lajiao mute?

Pingyang Hou Chenpi, however, secretly laughed in his heart: "Humph, little thing, aren't you quite arrogant? You're so scared just because someone died in the double-share plow. That's all!"

Everyone: After all, you are young and have never seen a dead person. Do you feel burdened?

Even the emperor consoled her with concern: "Who offended you? Tell me, and I will take care of it for you."

Everyone: This is the favorite minister, so enviable and jealous!

In this atmosphere, the Queen Mother's birthday banquet arrived. Song Jinxiu did not wait for Su Mo's personal explanation, but saw the battle report he sent 800 miles in expedited delivery.

Two days ago, traces of the Nuhan Kingdom were discovered from the narrow passage of Qishan Mountain. Su Mo has assembled his troops and a battle is about to break out.

"Great! This Nu Khanate has always been very cunning, always appearing and harassing our border.

Once they targeted a village, they not only robbed the property, but also the young women, leaving no man or old man alive. They slaughtered them all. They were simply inhumane.

"If the Duke of Zhenguo can report victory this time, we can be more assertive in our negotiations with Southern Xinjiang."

"It seems the envoys from Southern Xinjiang have forgotten they came here to negotiate. Are they stalling for time?"

fight?

Did he do something wrong and was too embarrassed to come back and see people, so he made up an excuse for himself?

Humph! You'd better destroy the Nu Khanate's lair, otherwise I won't see the victory report, and we'll settle the old and new scores together.

Song Jinxiu said with a stern face, "Your Majesty, we cannot give Southern Xinjiang a chance to breathe. They want to delay, but we won't give them that time. We must make them panic. Make them beg us to negotiate a ceasefire as soon as possible."

Pingyang Hou Chenpi simply couldn't stand Song Jinxiu. He sneered, "Princess, it's easy for them to say. They're not panicking. Do we really want to force them? You know, in negotiations, whoever loses patience first will be at a disadvantage."

Song Jinxiu's face was gloomy. "Don't panic. Then beat them until they panic."

Right Prime Minister Du Sui frowned, "Princess, what do you mean? Looking for someone to beat you up?"

Song Jinxiu looked at him disdainfully and shook her head.

Du Sui: What's with that look? I didn't provoke you.

"Ah! Princess, you don't mean..."

Minister of War Zhou Kunran suddenly excitedly gestured with his hands the movements of the two armies facing each other.

Song Jinxiu nodded. "The border troops are on high alert, so why don't we fight a few more battles and have the King of Southern Xinjiang personally urge them to negotiate quickly? Otherwise, if the Duke of Zhenguo wins a great victory, he can send more troops to Southern Xinjiang, and then there will be no need for negotiations."

Everyone: Princess, is she going to destroy Southern Xinjiang?

"Oh, Princess, your idea is really good. I hope Your Majesty will issue an order. I am willing to lead the troops to attack Huanglong directly." Wei Qizhi said loudly.

"Count me in when fighting in Southern Xinjiang. I've long been fed up with that woman covered in bugs."

"Yes, let's just destroy Southern Xinjiang. They are a bunch of guys who can only sing folk songs and want to play tricks on us. Bah!" The generals were all filled with righteous indignation.

Right Prime Minister Du Sui frowned and said, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager's birthday is the day after tomorrow. It would be unlucky to have war and chaos. It would be better to wait until after the Empress Dowager's birthday to discuss everything."

Song Jinxiu glanced at him disapprovingly. "The imperial edict will arrive at the border in a few days. How could you interrupt the Empress Dowager's birthday? Lord Du, are you a spy from southern Xinjiang?"

Du Sui was so frightened that he immediately knelt down and cried out for justice. Did this girl take the wrong medicine? Why was she so mean to him?

The emperor took a look at the angry little girl and knew that something must be wrong with this child.

Could it be that the establishment of the Women's Federation is not going smoothly?

Yes, a woman's fundamental role is to take care of her husband and children at home. She must help women to stand up for themselves. Not all women are like you, little girl.

"Well, Lord Du, draft an edict. Instruct the Women's Federation to open girls' schools throughout Cangwu, offering subjects such as mathematics, embroidery, and female medicine. Those with outstanding academic performance can enter the Shangyi Bureau, the Imperial Hospital, and the Women's Federation."

Everyone was stunned: Your Majesty, let’s talk about the border war now. Aren’t you going too far off the topic?

Song Jinxiu was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up. With this imperial edict from His Majesty, her work as an organization for the Women's Federation would go much more smoothly.

She knelt down and kowtowed excitedly, "On behalf of the All-China Women's Federation, I thank Your Majesty for your grace."

"Well, let's get flat."

Liu Renxiu looked at the little girl who had regained her vitality, and the depression in his heart was swept away.

He smiled and asked, "The Queen Mother's birthday is the day after tomorrow. Have you prepared your gift?"

Song Jinxiu nodded: "I'm ready, but I don't know if the Queen Mother likes it."

Liu Renxiu smiled and nodded to Eunuch Hai. Eunuch Hai quickly took out a small box and handed it to Song Jinxiu, whispering, "The Emperor prepared this for you. Princess, just use this. I guarantee the Queen Mother will like it."

Everyone: Your Majesty, this is the court, is it okay for you to do this?

That’s right, how could the Emperor prepare a birthday gift for the Empress Dowager?

Are you really raising her as your own daughter? At least you guys keep it a secret, don't you?

Du Sui: I can see that the emperor did it on purpose. He is openly supporting Princess Kangle. Who is he trying to warn?

The Queen Mother is the Emperor's biological mother. Although Princess Kangle has not officially acknowledged her relationship with him, her name is recorded on the Jade Butterfly.

Therefore, Song Jinxiu attached great importance to the gift for the empress dowager's birthday.

She was very successful in the court, but she didn't pay much attention to the harem. She only knew that the empress dowager was very low-key.

Not knowing the Empress Dowager's hobbies, she prepared a lot, from elixirs to calligraphy and paintings. But since the Emperor helped prepare them, she would just give this to the Emperor.

"Thank you, Your Majesty,"

Song Jinxiu held the box happily.

Seeing the little girl's smiling face, Emperor Cangwu was in a good mood. He waved his hand and said, "Wei Qizhi, accept the order."

Wei Qizhi stepped out and knelt on the ground.

"I order you to depart immediately and return to Southern Xinjiang to prepare for war. We must win the battle and not allow defeat. Put pressure on the King of Southern Xinjiang to ensure that our peace talks go smoothly."

"I accept the decree."

Watching Wei Qizhi stride away, Du Sui frowned and glanced at Song Jinxiu from the corner of his eye, but saw that she was staring at him without blinking. His heart suddenly trembled and he forced a smile.

Song Jinxiu: There seems to be something wrong with Lord Du? He doesn't want to go to war with Southern Xinjiang. Could he really be a Southern Xinjiang spy?
