The scheming empress starts by conquering men

"Dan'er, do you want to go to the death row camp to select slaves?" Jian Junxia asked.

Speaking of the death row camp, Shaodian Sishui recalled the last time he found the dead slave in the death row camp in Sucheng.

Before leaving, she didn't know where the dead slave was kept, but she knew that based on how much her senior brother cared about her, he would definitely go to Bian Jing to find her once the dead slave got better.

Thinking of the unpleasant incident that happened in the death row camp last time, Shaodian Sishui lost interest in going to the death row camp this time.

"No need." She said in a light voice.

"If you don't want to go, then don't go." Jian Junxia looked at the second oldest, Jian Zongjing; "Go, call Xing Ge'er over."

Shaodian Si Shui frowned slightly, not understanding what her grandmother was up to. Soon Jian Shaoxing and her second uncle walked in from outside.

He bowed to everyone one by one until he arrived at Shaodian Sishui.

"Meet the Imperial Cousin."

Instead of calling her the Sixth Princess as before, he just called her Imperial Cousin?

Shaodian Sishui looked suspiciously at his grandmother beside him, his eyes moving back and forth between his grandmother and Jian Shaoxing.

"Grandma, what do you mean?"

Jian Junxia said, "When you return to Beijing this time, take Xing Ge'er back with you. It will always be uneasy if you don't have someone to watch over your backyard."

"Don't be fooled by Brother Xing's appearance, as he seems to have never seen the world. In fact, he is the most thoughtful among the younger generation. He has been studying medicine since he was young, and his knowledge of detoxification is beyond your imagination. Grandmother can only feel at ease if he helps you look after the backyard."

Shaodian Sishui was slightly surprised, and finally understood what was going on.

She said, "Grandma, he is my cousin! How can I let him live in the backyard and ruin his future..."

Before she could finish saying the word "marriage", she was interrupted by Jian Junxia.

"It is precisely because he is your cousin that you let him marry you. Only with such a close relationship can you help you control the messy group of servants in the backyard to prevent them from fighting over love and framing each other and posing a threat to you."

"Grandmother has heard about that Zhong Junshi. He is a weak person and may not be able to manage your backyard well."

"Besides, your cousin can detoxify..."

Before Jian Junxia could finish her words, Shaodian Sishui interrupted her with a cough.

"Grandma, there's really no need! In Bianjing, with one less family member, Dan can worry less."

Although her grandmother said that he was thoughtful and could detoxify, except for Zhong Moyao, the rest of the people in her backyard were just decorations, not to mention that the poison in her body had been detoxified.

"Dan'er!" Jian Junxia shouted helplessly.

"grandmother!"

Shaodian Sishui quickly held her wrist and comforted her with a smile.

"I know that grandma means well, but my cousin will have his own future marriage, and he can't ruin his fate because of me. What's more, I don't have any other husbands and servants in my backyard except Zhong Moyao."

"Those servants you mentioned are just decorations to confuse outsiders. There is really no need to sacrifice my cousin."

She paused and looked at Jian Shaoxing with clear eyes.

"If you are willing, I will take you to Bianjing for a tour and find a suitable wife for you. What do you think?"

Jian Shaoxing's eyes were still as bright as a deer's. He bowed and said obediently.

"Thank you, cousin. No need. Since you have a plan in mind, Shaoxing cannot go and bother you."

Shaodian Sishui was very satisfied with his understanding and turned to Jian Junxia with a big smile.

"Look, my cousin has said no, grandma, why not just forget it."

Having too many men is also a problem, and she doesn't want to cause trouble for herself.

"Well, grandma is meddling in Brother Xing's affairs." Jian Junxia sighed and looked at Jian Shaoxing; "Brother Xing, you go down first."

Jian Shaoxing bowed again to everyone, turned around and walked out.

After the door was closed, Shaodian Si Shui said to Jian Junxia with some pleasure.

"Grandma, you can't worry about me all the time. It would be nice to spend some time at home planting flowers, fishing, or playing with birds."

"Don't worry, grandma. I have almost paved the way for the future. I am just waiting for the right time."

"That position can only be mine. What's more, the poison in my body has been eliminated. I am no longer a body of all poisons."

"Grandma, please don't worry."

"You ah you!"

Jian Junxia patted Shaodian Sishui on the back of her hand and said angrily.

"It's true that ignorance is bliss. Rumor has it that you were used as a medicine man to test drugs when you were a child, and your body is full of poisons. Your cousin likes to play with poisons since he was born, and he is even better at detoxifying."

"I thought that I would take this opportunity to let him help you detoxify. Even if you have already detoxified, what if you are poisoned again by accident? But you... Alas!"

Jian Junxia sighed and joked with a smile.

"I hope that one day you won't regret your decision today. His method of detoxification is much better than your fourth uncle's medical skills."

Shaodian Sishui frowned slightly when she heard this, especially when her grandmother said, "I hope one day you won't regret your decision today."

Her heart skipped a beat when she heard this, as if she was setting a new flag.

She shook her head and quickly waved away what was in her mind.

She must be overthinking it.

That night, after the few of them talked until midnight, Shaodian Sishui was taken to another garden to rest.

The dark night was very quiet, with nothing but the occasional rustling sound of the branches caused by the north wind.

On the second day, Shaodian Sishui left Liyang with the wedding procession, watched by all the people from the Jian family.

The closer they got to Bianliang, the faster they walked. Officials who had lived in Bianliang for a long time all felt homesick and looked forward to returning home.

The original time was to return to Beijing in December, but due to various delays, the wedding party only arrived in Bianliang on February 12rd.

It’s only three days away from the Spring Festival.

Shaodian Sishui's wedding procession returned from the east of the city, as if it were a lifetime ago.

When she first arrived, it was summer and she left the city from the west gate. Now it is winter and she is coming back from the east gate.

This trip allowed me to appreciate the cultural heritage of this world and see people's hearts.

People in a slave society live worse than animals.

"Come and see, everyone, come out quickly, the Sixth Princess is back to welcome her bride."

"Here she comes, wow, it really is the Sixth Princess!"

"I heard that the wedding day was postponed. Maybe there was an accident on the way?"

"Perhaps, but it's time for the Sixth Princess to return."

"That's right. Three days from now it will be the Spring Festival. It will be a good time for me to greet the new year with the princess."

"Alas, accompanying the emperor's wife to welcome the spring is nothing. I'm talking about the Prince of Loulan coming to Bianjing to marry. Three days from now will be the Spring Festival, and the Prince of Loulan will arrive in Bianjing just in time."

"There is also this matter, why haven't I heard of it, where did you hear it from?"

Shaodian Sishui was riding on a horse, listening to the discussions outside, his brows furrowed.

Yin Zhaoxu came to Bianjing at this time? It should be according to the plot.

In the original plot, Shaodian Haolan returned with her bride on March 1st after the Chinese New Year, and Yin Zhaoxu arrived in Bianjing for the flower-viewing banquet on March 3rd.

In other words, according to the plot, she has now returned to pick up her bride, although the time is earlier, but Yin Zhaoxu has also arrived earlier.

Thinking of this possibility, Shaodian Sishui didn't care and led Shao Jincong back to the palace to report.

Empress Shao Dian Ruixue had been waiting outside the Xuanwu Gate since she heard the report from the scouts.

After seeing the empress, Shaodian Si Shui lifted her skirt, knelt down and bowed.

"I have lived up to everyone's expectations and returned to help my sister get married after being away for several months. Please read it yourself, Your Majesty."
