The princess is so powerful that the fish pond is full of people

Xiang Jingchuan dismounted and stood firmly, then walked in front of A Zheng and the girl, unlike when he was on a horse.

Admiring it from such a close distance, he felt as if he had caught a glimpse of the face of a god.

She wore a lotus-pink dress with Guangdong embroidery and cloud patterns, decorated with a few jade hairpins, which was enough to make her bright and charming. Her eyebrows were lightly drawn and her eyes were full of spring. Her skin was as smooth as warm jade, and her light glow was as red as a pearl without any spot. She was so beautiful that it made her drip with water. Two strands of hair on her cheeks were gently blown by the wind. She should be at the age of youth and charm, but with a bit of seductive charm, her eyes were full of autumn light and turned cleverly, a bit delicate and a bit gentle.

It was the first time that Xiang Zheng saw her third brother look so dazed, so she stretched out her hand and waved it in front of his eyes.

"Third brother, what's wrong with you? Why don't you go to Xuancao Garden quickly? Mother must be getting anxious waiting."

Xiang Jingchuan came back to his senses and looked at the person in front of him with surprise. He knew how to convince his mother.

"My name is Xiang Jingchuan, Deputy Commander of the Guards. I just bumped into my younger sister and this young lady on horseback. I hope the young lady will forgive me."

The deputy lieutenant commander of the guards, a fourth-rank military officer, was not really considered a high-ranking official in the capital, but with the support of the Duke Dingguo's Mansion, it was only a matter of time for him to climb up.

Liang Chongyue flipped through the information and found that she had never met this third cousin before, so it was normal that the other party did not recognize her.

Thinking that his aunt was looking for a future wife for his third cousin, Liang Chongyue pulled A Zheng with his hand under his sleeve, stopping her from explaining her identity.

"If you have urgent matters, please go ahead and take care of them. Zheng and I are fine. We won't waste your time."

As he said this, Liang Chongyue was kind enough to pull A Zheng aside a step.

Xiang Zheng also immediately understood that her mother had specially invited Princess Pingnan to help her third brother look for someone, and she must have been waiting anxiously. Before she came out, she had already drunk two pots of tea. There was no time to delay.

Xiang Jingchuan originally thought that the girl next to A Zheng was from some family, but after hearing this, he wondered if she was a cousin from a relative's family?

The Xiang family has too many relatives, and all the prestigious families in Daxia are related to them by marriage. It is normal that he has never met them before.

Today my mother asked someone to help him look for fortune, is that possible?

Xiang Jingchuan's eyes lit up when he looked at his cousin.

"Third brother, please leave quickly. Mother and Princess Pingnan are waiting anxiously. If you don't go, they will say that our family has no rules."

Before Xiang Jingchuan could finish sorting out his thoughts, A Zheng urged him into the mansion.

Before leaving, he did not forget to bow and say goodbye to his cousin.

"Host, Xiang Jingchuan seems to be interested in you. Do you want to check it out?"

The system looked at Xiang Jingchuan who kept looking back every few steps and bumped its head against the host's hand.

"No need, they are all family, there is nothing to check."

Liang Chongyue followed the two into the Duke Dingguo's Mansion. The system beside him was still unwilling to give up, and looked like it was watching the fun and not minding the trouble.

"Host, I think Xiang Jingchuan is quite fair, and he should meet your standards. Do you want to give him a try? After all, you are a princess, so one more is not too many. Cousins, etc., are considered to be close relatives in ancient times."

Liang Chongyue raised the corner of her mouth to smile, as if the system had touched her heart.

When the system was proud and complacent, he gave the system a slam dunk.

"You violent bastard, you beat up the puppy. Woo woo woo, I really want to bite you to death."

Liang Chongyue glanced at the puppy nonchalantly, thinking of Xiang Jingchuan's divine face, and said with some melancholy:

"This princess will not touch the men of the Xiang family, so don't worry about it."

Everyone, regardless of gender, has their own pride in their family.

It is impossible for her to stay for any man in her life. She cannot be a good wife and mother in the traditional sense, and she cannot give him a lifelong life with her husband.

If I had known the ending would be bad, it would have been better not to start.

Her uncle and aunt were both good to her, and Xiang Jingchuan had a bright future. She couldn't repay their kindness with resentment and ruin their son.

Sometimes only blood ties can help her accomplish things better.

Liang Chongyue was holding A Zheng's hand, pretending not to see Xiang Jingchuan's fiery gaze, and was taken away by A Zheng.

"Cousin, the training ground is just ahead. I'd like to have a fight with you, is that okay?"

Liang Chongyue didn't expect that after not seeing each other for so many years, A Zheng was still the same.

Ever since he lost to her in a sparring match in the palace when he was a child, he would come to practice with her every year.

At first, she didn't get discouraged when she lost, but later she lost more and more. One time, she hit the person too hard and made him cry.

I asked her to move a large box of things from the warehouse before I could coax her into submission.

"I just moved out of the palace. I've only been putting away all this jewelry, antiques, calligraphy, paintings, swords, and spears for less than a day, and your wishful thinking is about to blow me up in the face."

Liang Chongyue teased A Zheng with a smile, saying that she had grown older and looked more mature, but why was she still so childish at heart?

"Cousin, I won't necessarily lose to you. I also followed my father to the battlefield in the north. I killed soldiers from the north when I was thirteen."

Liang Chongyue didn't expect that her uncle would be willing to take A Zheng to the battlefield.

"Swords have no eyes on the battlefield. Are you not hurt?"

"Hehe, no, no, I killed a lot of Northern soldiers with the scimitar my cousin gave me."

As he spoke, Xiang Zheng took Liang Chongyue to the armory next to the martial arts training ground and took out two scimitars.

"The one my cousin gave me is placed in the yard where I live. These two were made for me by someone my father hired. I usually practice with them."

As he spoke, he waved the knife a few times in front of Liang Chongyue. The blade was sharp and suddenly a cold light flashed, looking ferocious.

Liang Chongyue took the scimitar from Xiang Zheng's hand. Unlike other military families who loved to use swords and guns, the Xiang family was best at using knives.

She had looked through the Xiang family's information. The Xiang family had its own sword manual, but most of them were long swords suitable for men.

She saw that A Zheng really loved martial arts, but the long sword was not convenient for her to use.

I bought a manual on scimitar sword techniques and two embroidered spring swords suitable for women from the mall.

"This sword is finely forged, just as good as the two I gave you. Show me how to wield it. If you do it well, and it lives up to my expectations of you, I'll consider a duel with you."

"Really? Cousin, don't lie to me."

"When have I ever lied to you?"

When she was a child, she would practice martial arts every day until she was exhausted. Occasionally, when A Zheng entered the palace, her scumbag father would give her half a day off.

She really didn't want to take a rare break and fight with others. He just told a few lies to scare her.

Little girl, you're quite vindictive.

Every time she entered the palace, she brought those few food and toys with her. I don’t know how many things they exchanged for from her. How come she didn’t remember?

If you don’t remember the good things, you will remember the bad things.

Liang Chongyue led the people and the dog back to the martial arts arena, where they drank tea and enjoyed A Zheng's performance.
