After Reincarnating, the Ice-Cold Prince Won’t Leave Me Alone

Chapter 222: So, if it’s okay, it’s better to set up a person for yourself



  As soon as Su Qing raised his head, he saw Shen Mingjiao. When the enemy met, he was naturally extremely jealous. Seeing her rosier complexion than before being taken away, sitting beside the handsome and upright Feng Lisheng, looking more and more dazzling, she was so angry that her teeth itched.

  Bisheng Shen Mingjiao looked over with a smile: "Oh! Isn't this the eldest nephew's wife? How come you don't know how to greet the elders?"

  Su Qing lowered her head and caressed her lower abdomen shyly, and glanced at the prince for help. I sneered in my heart, I really thought I could make you succeed a second time with the same trick!

  The prince received Su Qing's gaze, and patted the back of her hand distressedly. Turning to Shen Mingjiao with an apologetic smile:

   "Auntie Xiaohuang, please forgive me, Ah Qing is inconvenient..."

  Shen Mingjiao is still smiling: "Is that so..."

  The crown prince heaved a sigh of relief, and Su Qing raised the corners of his lips triumphantly. But I heard her continue: "But I didn't make her kneel and kowtow three times, I just bowed and called Xiao Huang's aunt! What? Did she have a broken leg or a rotten mouth?"

   Saying such words, her tone is still smiling, making people think that she is outspoken.

  Su Qing gritted his teeth angrily, but lowered his head with a strong and aggrieved face, not waiting for the other party to start Bailian's quotations. Shen Mingjiao spoke first:

   "I heard that the etiquette of the eldest nephew and daughter-in-law is recognized by the Great Xia Kingdom as excellent. Sister-in-law Huang, you are really honored to have such a daughter-in-law!"

   Regardless of what a few people think in their hearts, they all have a smile on their faces, and in the eyes of the innocent queen, it means that the relationship between the two is not bad. So she nodded seriously:

   "Well, the strictest nuns in the palace say that the princess's etiquette and upbringing can't be wrong."

  Su Qing: "..."

  Facing the gentle and curious eyes of her mother-in-law, Su Qing had no choice but to stand up bravely, saluted Shen Mingjiao in a proper manner, and called "Little Aunt Huang".

   No way, who made her the perfect etiquette recognized by the Great Xia Kingdom?

  Shen Mingjiao promised again and again with a smile on her face, and even said a few hypocritically polite words, "Oh, my nephew and daughter-in-law don't need to be polite..."

  So, if it’s okay, it’s better to set up a character for yourself, how good it is to be like her, and say whatever you want.

   Several people finally started eating, as if they wanted to win a round in front of Shen Mingjiao. Under the suggestion of Su Qing's eyes, the prince frequently brought food to her.

  Shen Mingjiao looked away speechlessly, she was the prince of a country, but in front of Su Qing, she was like a tool man!

  The empress kept adding food to Feng Shuo, asking him to eat more.

  Prince Su Qing and the two on the opposite side had noticed this child a long time ago, but they just never found a chance to ask.

  At this time, the crown prince pointed to Feng Shuo and asked Feng Lisheng: "This is?"

  Feng Lisheng repeated what he had just said to Jing and Di.

  The prince looked at him in disbelief after hearing this, as if he couldn't accept it. The cold-hearted little emperor uncle in his heart actually had a woman outside, it was so long ago!

  Su Qing didn't really believe it at first, but he looked at Feng Shuo's pair of blue eyes that were exactly the same as Feng Lisheng's, and that same clear and cold temperament.

  Su Qing no longer doubted that five or six years ago, Feng Lisheng was fighting at the border. At that time, as the commander in chief of the Northwest, many people must have sent him beauties...

   In other words, Feng Lisheng may not be as unfeminine as he appears!

  Thinking of this, she was glad that when she made the choice, she also made up her mind. And looking at Shen Mingjiao again, it was simply full of gloating.

  Shen Mingjiao didn't need to think about it to know that this woman was definitely thinking about how to trick her Highness into a beauty trick?

   She just wanted to remind her in good faith: If you want to seduce her highness, instead of sending some beauties, it is better to get some ancient weapons!

  The top few people in the Great Xia Kingdom are not very particular about food and words when eating. The three of Jing and Di talked about the next court from time to time.

"...The beginning of winter is half a month away. Some officials asked the temples and Taoist temples to hold sacrifices to the heavens. feasible."

   I have to say that the prince who doesn't love his brain is still good in politics.

  Jing and Emperor nodded in satisfaction: "Well, let the Ministry of Rites choose the goddess in charge of blessing in advance, and prepare for the sacrifice..."

  Shen Mingjiao just listened casually and didn't care.

  The so-called offering sacrifices to the sky in Lidong to pray for blessings is a long-standing custom. The exact time is no longer available. In short, it is to thank God for his face this year and to pray for continued good weather in the coming year.

   And if there is anything special about it, it is probably that a woman with both ability and political integrity needs to lead everyone to pray for blessings during the sacrifice. The earliest legend is that in a certain year long ago, the weather was not beautiful. There is drought everywhere, and one tribe has almost no harvest for a whole year.

   Seeing people panic, the tribal leader decided to sacrifice to heaven on the day of Lidong in order to stabilize the people. In order to let the people in the tribe have a sense of collective participation, it is proposed to let the people choose the most hardworking, simple and kind girl recognized by the tribe.

   As a result, not only in the coming year, but also for several years in a row.

  So, this custom has been carried on like this, and every time a sacrifice is made, a hardworking and kind girl recognized by the people will be chosen to take the lead in praying.

  People call such a woman a goddess—a woman who can communicate with God.

  With the evolution of the times and the progress of civilization, people gradually no longer pin all their hopes on the gods. Until now, Lidong worshiping the sky is only people's spiritual sustenance.

And I don’t know when it started, the goddess is no longer chosen by the people spontaneously, but by a high-status noble lady. Gradually, it has lost its original value. Until now, the so-called goddess is just a mascot. No one will care whether she is hardworking and kind, with both ability and political integrity.

  However, at this moment, Su Qing's annoying voice came from next to my ear: "Husband, if the candidate for the priestess has not been decided, can you give me priority?"

  Look, this is so straightforward.

  The prince was obviously a little surprised, and then turned to look at her puzzled:

   "The priest has to stand all day to pray for blessings. Now you are pregnant and you are inconvenient."

  Su Qingyao nodded, with firm eyes: "It's okay, I can hold on. There are still many people in Daxia who can't eat enough. I just want to do my best to make a small contribution to them..."

  With those firm eyes and righteous tone, those who didn't know thought she was going to die for the common people.

  However, when the prince heard this, he looked at Su Qing with admiration and distress.

  Really impatient to hear, Shen Mingjiao directly interrupted her chatter.

   "Brother Huang, I want to be the priestess of the sacrifice this time, but I don't know if it's possible?"

  Su Qing, who was speaking righteously and awe-inspiringly, paused when he heard the words, his first thought was unexpectedly. This woman just said it so blatantly, why?

...

  Anyway, in his eyes, Su Qing is a dead person after giving birth to a child. But he still asked a routine: "Oh, why?"

  Shen Mingjiao also replied casually: "There is no reason, just a sudden desire to be."

  Let’s put it aside, she has never been bothered to participate in such tiring and showy things. But now? Whatever Su Qing wanted, she would grab it.

  Well, why does it feel like she is becoming more and more like a vicious supporting actress?
