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

Chapter 1112 You're comparing the imperial palace to our home?

Xiang Yu is no longer a child. They have been practicing martial arts with their mother since they were young. When she entered the palace, she could sense the hidden guards lurking in every corner of the palace.

Not to mention that they encountered at least three patrols of guards on their way to the palace.

"Are you comparing the imperial palace to our home?"

How can these be compared?

If anyone dared to kidnap Xiang Yu from the palace, she believed that person would have a very hard time leaving the palace alive.

They shouldn't even be allowed to enter the Cining Palace.

"I'm scared, aren't you worried about me, sister?"

Xiang Sheng gently stroked Xiang Yu's fair and tender little face, noting how much he resembled his mother.

Their noses, eyes, and even the moles at the corners of their eyes are the same.

"Don't worry, you'll be fine. There are people protecting you in the shadows."

Xiang Yu, however, was not buying it. He grabbed Xiang Sheng's hand and continued to press him for answers.

"I asked if my sister wasn't worried about me being kidnapped?"

Xiang Sheng was too lazy to discuss something that was impossible with him.

"The struggle for the crown prince position has always been like this. If it doesn't work out, go find your mother and she will take you home. I live alone in the palace."

Xiang Yu roughly understood what his sister meant by the struggle for the crown prince position.

But he doesn't care.

"Then let's not. I'm worried about my sister."

Xiang Yu wandered around the room for a long time, examining every detail.

He darted over to his sister with his short legs, and before Xiang Sheng could react, his sleeve was grabbed again.

"what happened again?"

When Xiang Yu smiles, his chubby little face is incredibly cute, enough to melt anyone's heart.

"Sister, I feel this room has a lot of Mother's feel to it, why don't you let me have it?"

As he said this, Xiang Yu kept blinking his big eyes, making Xiang Sheng want to pluck all of his eyelashes out.

“Xing, as long as Mother agrees, I have no objections.”

Upon hearing these words, Xiang Yu's bright eyes instantly dimmed.

"Will Mother agree? It's just a room."

Xiang Sheng had no time to pay attention to her foolish younger brother arguing over a house.

She turned and left, leaving Xiang Yu alone in the room, counting on his fingers whether his mother would agree.

"Miss Xiang Sheng, would you like to take a look at that room in the side hall?"

As soon as Xiang Sheng came out, he bumped into Aunt Chun Chan who was waiting outside.

"Okay, thank you for leading the way, Aunt Chun Chan."

Xiang Sheng followed Aunt Chun Chan to the side hall. The location of the side hall was not bad, but it was a little farther from the Empress Dowager than the side hall.

It was slightly smaller than the side hall, but it had its own small courtyard.

Xiang Sheng then remembered that his mother had told her about it.

The Empress Dowager's Cining Palace was originally the Yikun Palace.

However, the Empress Dowager did not want to move back then, so my aunt rewrote the plaque and changed Yikun Palace to Cining Palace.

Upon seeing the side hall behind the Cining Palace for the first time, Xiang Sheng suddenly felt that Xiang Yu's suggestion was quite good.

"Aunt Chun Chan, may I stay here?"

Chun Chan overheard their conversation inside while he was outside.

"Is Miss Xiang Sheng planning to give the side hall to Young Master Xiang Yu?"

Xiang Sheng nodded; she hadn't originally planned to give it to Xiang Yu.

However, this side hall was far from the Empress Dowager, so her early morning practice would not disturb the Empress Dowager's sleep.

Moreover, this place is quiet and elegant, and she likes it even more than the side hall.

For Xiang Sheng, feigning humility in front of outsiders was an instinctive and deeply ingrained practice.

“Miss Xiang Sheng, there’s no need to put yourself through this. This matter was decided by the Empress Dowager long ago. As the eldest daughter, you should have priority in everything.”

Xiang Sheng hadn't heard those words in a long time.

Her father and mother had said similar things to her before.

But since moving back to the Duke of Dingguo's mansion, she has rarely heard such words.

"I won't feel wronged. I will get up early to practice martial arts. Staying in the side hall might disturb the Empress Dowager's rest."

Xiang Sheng truly loved this little courtyard; she had wanted one like it when she was at the Duke of Dingguo's mansion.

It's just a pity that my grandfather liked the lively atmosphere of the whole family being together.

No matter how large the Duke of Dingguo's mansion is, it doesn't seem so big once all the members of his various branches of the family gather together.

Her mother gave her a separate room, but couldn't provide her with a separate yard.

The main problem is that there simply isn't enough space at home.

Chun Chan was surprised by Xiang Sheng's maturity. He was about to say that Her Highness the Crown Princess also gets up early every day, either to practice martial arts or to attend the morning court.

Thinking of the Empress Dowager's state after returning yesterday, Chun Chan still didn't say these words.

"Then I'll trouble Miss Xiang Sheng to tell the Empress Dowager about this myself."

Xiang Sheng nodded, looked around the entire side hall, and then went back.

I suppose Mother and Empress Dowager have finished their conversation.

When Xiang Sheng arrived, Xiang Yu was already sitting by the Empress Dowager's bedside, drinking afternoon tea.

"Xiang Sheng pays his respects to the Empress Dowager."

Xiang Huayue looked at the child whose eyebrows and eyes resembled Xiang Zheng so much, and was delighted. She quickly woke the child up.

"There is some sweet water on the table, go and have some. From now on, this will be your new home. Stay with me for a while, and then you can go back after your mother has finished tidying up the Duke of Dingguo's mansion."

Xiang Sheng turned his head to look at his mother and keenly noticed the half jade pendant hanging from her waist.

Jade pendants are usually meant to be perfectly round, and it's rare to see a mother wearing only half a piece.

Judging from the fact that these pieces weren't the ones that my father and I each shared, they must have been a gift from the Empress Dowager.

"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty."

After Xiang Sheng responded, Xiang Yu had already brought out a new cup and handed it to her.

"Sister, try this! I think it's the best."

Xiang Sheng picked it up and took a bite. The food in the palace was all very good, and she had tried this kind before.

However, Xiang Yu never had the chance to enter the palace and thus never had the opportunity to taste it.

"It's delicious, thank you, Yu'er."

After receiving her sister's thanks, Xiang Yu wished she could bring all the fruits on the table to her sister so she could try them.

But it's just a thought; where are all those rules from elementary school to university?

Xiang Yu wasn't in a hurry; he just waited for his sister to try it herself.

Once they were away from the Empress Dowager, he asked his sister which one she preferred.

"Sheng'er, Yu'er, from today onwards you will stay in the palace temporarily. Once I have settled things at home, I will come to take you back."

If Xiang Zheng were to take charge of the affairs in the Duke of Dingguo's mansion, they wouldn't be difficult to resolve.

It will take several months to at least completely remove all the surface-dwelling termites.

"Don't worry, Mother, I will take good care of my sister."

There was still a ring of marks left from eating soft cheese around Xiang Yu's mouth.

Xiang Zheng didn't seem too worried that the two children would be bullied in the palace.

His Majesty only has one daughter, Minglang, who will be going on a trip in the spring. Then, only these two mischievous monkeys will be left in the palace.

Her only worry was that Xiang Yu would be left unattended. The food in Cining Palace was so good that by the time she came to pick him up, he would probably be as fat as a little pig.

Thinking of this, Xiang Zheng turned to look at her daughter and realized that she had only discovered another side of her daughter before coming here.

Her two children are both very clever and mischievous. Oh well, let them be.
