Nangong Jiu's eyes rolled.
"I like them all! When I'm in the capital, I'll be wherever mother is, and I'll be with her."
Emperor Dongling laughed out loud.
"You're such a clever little thing! Okay, let's go back to Kunning Palace. Grandfather Huang has asked the Imperial Kitchen to prepare a delicious meal for you. Lunch will be delivered to Kunning Palace."
When Nangong Jiu heard this, he clapped his hands with joy.
[Wow, there's something delicious! Thank you, Grandfather!]
The next morning court session.
Eunuch Wei said sharply, "If you have something to say, please report it. If not, please leave the court."
After waiting for a while, no one stood up to speak, and the morning court ended early.
The ministers breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the hall and began to whisper to each other.
"Hey, did you notice? Princess Dingguo wasn't here today, and everything seemed normal. Do you think this is a coincidence?"
"There are gods above us, don't talk nonsense!"
"That's right, Princess Dingguo is just a one-year-old baby, what else can she do besides eating, sleeping and crying?
Even if it's related to her, it's the gods who are protecting her who are taking action. In short, it's best to avoid provoking them and be respectful! "
"Could it be that those people from the day before yesterday offended the gods and were punished? Hong Tianfu is not usually a talkative person."
"You know what, that day was really a bit weird.
Hong Tianfu was standing next to me. He had been very quiet the whole time, but suddenly he started talking about those people's dirty laundry, which scared me."
"It seems that they have probably offended the princess, or the gods around her."
"Not necessarily. Maybe he offended the Emperor. Otherwise, the Emperor wouldn't have allowed the situation to develop..."
The more the ministers spoke, the more they felt they had grasped the truth. They were so frightened that they shut up and quickened their pace.
The Nangong Jiu they were talking about didn't have to get up early to attend court, and he could sleep until noon.
Rubbing his eyes, he asked Xiao Wang, "Where's Mom?"
"Madam was chatting with the Queen in the hall."
Nangong Jiu slid off the bed and took two steps on the ground with his bare feet. He felt a little cold on the soles of his feet, so he quickly hung his body in the air.
Seeing this, Xiao Wang lay down in front of Nangong Jiu and said, "Your Majesty, it would be more comfortable for you to sit on my back."
Nangong Jiu climbed up and sat down with a smile: "Let's go find mother!"
As soon as the man and the dog appeared at the door of the hall, they were discovered by Nangong Yunxue, who hurried forward and picked up the little man.
"Jiu'er, are you awake? It's cold, let's go back and put on our clothes and shoes before going out."
[Mom, what were you talking about just now? You seemed very happy?]
Nangong Yunxue's face turned slightly red.
"The Ministry of Rites has chosen a date for the wedding, the 18th of next month. Your grandmother said she would be at the Prince's residence to oversee it."
Nangong Jiu counted on her hands: [Next month is the 18th, so there are only about 30 days left!]
"Well, let's go back in the afternoon and see if we can help."
【good!】
The mother and daughter quickly packed up and returned to the main hall.
Nangong Jiu climbed onto Queen Chen's lap and sat down.
[Grandmother, on the day of my mother and uncle's wedding, you will be at my uncle's house to oversee the wedding. What about me? Should I also be there to oversee the wedding?]
"Haha...your job is to sit at the table and eat!"
Nangong Jiu smiled with a smile: [Okay, I promise to eat more.]
"No, besides the feast, I also need to think of a gift."
"Okay, Xiaojiuer, take your time to think about it, there's no rush." Queen Chen laughed heartily.
Nanny Chen said happily, "Since Madam Xue and the princess arrived, the queen has smiled more."
"That's right. With Xiao Jiuer as the happy pill, it's hard not to laugh."
General's Mansion.
Afternoon.
Nangong Yunxue and her daughter returned to the general's mansion. Eunuch Wei, who was holding the imperial decree granting the marriage, also came with them.
After he finished his announcement and left, the servants came forward to congratulate him: "Congratulations, Miss! Congratulations, Miss!"
Nangong Jiu took out a few handfuls of golden melon seeds from his small pocket and put them in the small bag on his chest, then gave two to each person with a smile.
"A reward!"
"Congratulations, Miss, and thank you, Princess!"
Nangong Yunxue quietly asked, "Jiu'er, where did you get the golden melon seeds?"
[I got quite a bit from killing monsters in the desert.]
The whole family gathered in the flower hall.
Chu Ruoyan assigned tasks: "Fei Yan and Yu Yao will have to work harder this month. Many things need to be prepared quickly."
"Mother, just stay with my sister. We will make all the arrangements and ensure that she gets married in style."
Nangong Yunxue thanked them: "My two sisters-in-law, thank you for your hard work. There are some things I can do."
"No need! Eunuch Wei has already said that the Imperial Household Department will prepare the wedding dress and other things. You can just wait for the wedding with peace of mind."
Chu Ruoyan took over the conversation: "If you can't stay idle, you can help me choose a good family for your cousin Xi.
The emperor has already agreed that your grandfather and his family will return to Beijing to live for a few months every year, and he also said that once we have chosen a family, he will grant the marriage between the two families.
Your aunt and her family have been away from the capital for a long time and don't know the situation of each family. We will take some time to help you choose. "
Nangong Yunxue nodded happily: "This is a good thing!
On the way back, His Highness mentioned to me that there are several talented young men who are suitable for my cousin."
"Really? Your Highness is absolutely right! Tell me quickly, who are they?"
"When I was talking about it, I was interrupted by other things. Later, I forgot to ask. I will ask him in detail when he comes another day."
"We can't put this off. You'll be leaving again in March."
"Don't worry, Mom. He will come tomorrow."
Nangong Jiu directly revealed: "Uncle, betrothal gift!"
The whole family looked at Nangong Jiu in surprise: "Your Highness will come to deliver the betrothal gifts tomorrow?"
Nangong Jiu's little head kept nodding like a chick pecking at rice.
Nangong Yunxue also confirmed with a blushing face: "We left the palace together. He said he would come to deliver the betrothal gifts tomorrow."
Xu Feiyan and Zhou Yuyao stood up immediately: "Then we have to make some arrangements."
Nangong Yunxue told her family some details about the wedding, and Chu Ruoyan asked, "You said the Queen would be at the Prince's residence?"
"Well, the Queen is His Highness's mother, so it's normal for her to take charge of the situation."
Nangong Jiu patted his chest proudly: "Grandma, take charge. I'll eat the feast!"
"Haha..." The little appearance made the whole family laugh.
"Really? Mission!"
Nangong Yunsheng suppressed his laughter and said, "The mission your grandmother gave you is to have a feast, right?"
"Yeah!"
It was my first time attending a human wedding, and it was my own mother’s, so of course I had to perform well.
It is also important to take the lead and invite everyone to the banquet.
The old lady hugged the little guy and gently rubbed Nangong Jiu's round belly.
"Oh, our little Jiu'er's stomach can really hold a lot of food."
Nangong Yunxue smiled and said, "She's quite good at what she does. She's been eating a lot since she was weaned, and I haven't seen her develop any health problems."
Chu Ruoyan was amazed.
"Besides meatballs, do you eat anything else?"
