Traveling through time and space to become a concubine's daughter, leading the whole village to

Later, Xu Miao heard the question in Zhou Jicheng's words and asked Zhou Jicheng in confusion: "Sixth Prince, what did you say? You want me to go to Northern Frontier?"

Zhou Jicheng: "Yes, I want to ask you if you want to go to Northern Xinjiang with me? I want to take you to see Dahei when I go back to Northern Xinjiang this time."

Big black dog....don't use me as an excuse.

Zhou Jicheng...finally said this, I'd rather suffocate him to death.

After hearing what Zhou Jicheng said, Xu Miao straightened his face and asked Zhou Jicheng, "Sixth Prince, do you know what you are talking about? You want to take me to the Northern Frontier?"

Seeing Xu Miao's expression change, Zhou Jicheng hurriedly explained, "When I returned to the capital last time, I wanted to take you back to Northern Xinjiang."

"At that time, you had just been divorced from General Zhang's residence. Before I could look for you, you had already married into the Duke's residence."

"I can't compete with A Yuan for my wife, so I ask my uncle to take good care of you."

Zhou Jicheng certainly knew that Xu Miao and Zhou Jiyuan were not really going to get married, and the wedding was just an excuse.

"I won't be staying in Beijing for long this time, so I wanted you to go back to Northern Frontier with me. Xu Miao, are you willing?"

After hearing this, Xu Miao frowned and looked at Zhou Jicheng, and asked tentatively: "Sixth Prince, do you also want to get married?"

Apart from getting married for good luck, Xu Miao really couldn't think of any other reason.

Zhou Jicheng was shocked when he heard this and waved his hands hurriedly: "No, no, no, I don't need to rush to get married."

Zhou Jicheng is as strong as a bull, so why does he need Xu Miao to get married?

Xu Miao: "If it's not for auspicious occasion, why would you ask me to go to Northern Xinjiang? To marry you?"

Apart from getting married, Xu Miao couldn't think of any other reason.

"No. I don't want you to marry me. But if you really want to, we can get married."

Zhou Jicheng started to be stubborn again. The key point was that he really hadn't decided whether to marry Xu Miao.

I just wanted to take Xu Miao to the northern border to have a look.

After saying that, both of them fell silent.

Zhou Jicheng picked up the teacup and gulped down several mouthfuls of tea. He wondered if he had said something wrong. The atmosphere was so harmonious just now, but now it was so quiet.

After a moment, Xu Miao raised his head and said to Zhou Jicheng with a serious face: "Sixth Prince, I don't want to get married. I don't want to marry you, and I don't want to marry anyone else."

"I can't do anything about it, but now I don't want to marry anyone."

Xu Miao just thought about it carefully and realized that getting married was probably just Zhou Jicheng's own idea.

It is estimated that Duke Dingguo and his wife did not know that if Zhou Jicheng had told Zhou Chenli that he wanted to marry her earlier, Zhou Chenli would have ordered Xu Miao to get married.

But now, it was Zhou Jicheng who was discussing with him.

Xu Miao didn't want to marry anyone, but she had thought about leaving Duke Dingguo's Mansion as early as when Zhou Jiyuan went to study at the Imperial College.

Zhou Jiyuan went to study at the Imperial College, and Xu Miao had basically nothing to do. At that time, he thought about telling his wife and others that he wanted to leave the Duke's Mansion.

But his wife was about to give birth at that time, and Xu Miao didn't want to cause trouble, so he thought of waiting until his wife gave birth before mentioning leaving.

Later, when the young lady was born, Xu Miao joined Mrs. Yang and the others in taking care of her. She mainly helped the lady to regulate her health. The wife of Duke Dingguo had given birth at an advanced age, which had taken some toll on her health.

This delay lasted until winter. Xu Miao wanted to wait until after the New Year to discuss leaving with Zhou Chenli and his wife.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Jicheng mentioned to her that he wanted to go to Northern Xinjiang, but she really didn't want to marry anyone.

She especially didn't want to be associated with the royal family. She just wanted to live the life of an ordinary person, with three meals a day and four seasons, watching the change of spring and winter, and the rise and fall of clouds.

When Zhou Jicheng heard Xu Miao say that she didn't want to marry him, he rubbed his face vigorously twice and replied, "I don't want to get married either, but I just don't know how to say it."

The northern border is bitterly cold, and none of the delicate young ladies in the capital are willing to marry there.

Moreover, his father would not transfer him back from the Northern Frontier before his brother, the Crown Prince, ascended the throne. Even if the Crown Prince ascended the throne in the future, the possibility of him returning to the capital was estimated to be low.

Zhou Jicheng's face darkened. He would probably have to stay in the northern border for the rest of his life.

This was nothing to him, but he didn't know if Xu Miao could go to Northern Frontier with him. After all, Northern Frontier was far less prosperous than the capital.

Xu Miao felt relieved when she saw that Zhou Jicheng did not force her to talk about marriage, and asked Zhou Jicheng why he would be returning to Northern Xinjiang soon.

"Are you going back to Northern Frontier soon? Shouldn't the prince be in the capital helping the emperor manage state affairs?"

In Xu Miao's impression, only princes who made mistakes would be exiled to the frontier by the emperor, but he had never heard that the Sixth Prince had done anything treasonous.

Seeing Xu Miao asking about this, Zhou Jicheng felt at ease to tell Xu Miao about the secret history of the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The reason why he was called the Sixth Prince was because there were four princes before him: the second, third, fourth, and fifth.

The Crown Prince is the eldest of the royal family. His younger brothers all died tragically in harem struggles shortly after their father ascended the throne.

At that time, the emperor had just ascended the throne and was busy managing state affairs in the front court, while the empress dowager was busy helping her son build relationships in the harem.

The harem is full of vicious beauties whose families hold military and financial power. Especially after these beauties give birth to sons, they become even more involved in palace fighting.

With sons as capital, beauties all dream of becoming the most honored women in the Great Zhou Dynasty. They unite with their natal families outside the palace and fight to the death in the harem.

My son died today, and your son will meet the King of Hell next month.

Within a few years, the only two adult princes left in the harem of the Great Zhou Dynasty were the Crown Prince and Zhou Jicheng.

If it weren't for the Empress's desperate efforts to protect him, and if it weren't for the fact that the court officials didn't dare to touch the Emperor's weak spot and didn't dare to touch the Emperor's legitimate son, the Crown Prince and Zhou Jicheng would have been in danger.

Later, the emperor and the empress dowager worked together to rectify the former dynasty and the harem, and only then did they suppress this unhealthy trend.

After the matter was settled, the Empress Dowager and the Emperor discussed and decided to send Zhou Jicheng to garrison far away in the northern border, and he was not allowed to return to the capital without a plan.

Of course, the Queen Mother was reluctant to let her youngest son go to the northern border to suffer, but in order to ensure that the Prince ascended the throne and save her youngest son's life, she had to agree with the Emperor and others' approach.

During those years, she was frightened by the beauties in the harem, and she was also afraid that one day her two sons would fight each other and become enemies.

The best way is to keep Zhou Jicheng away from the center of power.

For this reason, the Queen Mother and the Emperor were particularly fond of Zhou Jicheng. As long as power was not mentioned, they would do almost everything Zhou Jicheng wanted.

Everyone in the capital knew that the emperor doted on the Sixth Prince, but this came at the cost of Zhou Jiyuan being stationed far away on the border.

Zhou Jicheng said this with a wry smile, "I was fine when I went to Northern Xinjiang. I didn't feel depressed at all. But it's different for the Crown Prince. Every time I come back, he's more or less on guard against me."

"When no one is around, she always stares at me warily. And my mother always asks me when I'm going back to Northern Xinjiang."

"Xu Miao, the palace is my home, but not all of my family are mine. I never thought that my mother and the crown prince would become like this. I'm actually really sad. Is the throne that important? It's more important than my family!"

After hearing this, Xu Miao didn't know how to comfort Zhou Jicheng.

Everyone has his own suffering, and living in this world is a journey of practice.
