Concubine Xue shook her head: "Forget it!
If we make a scene, we will only end up losing face. Let's just wait and see.
The day after tomorrow, at the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, I'd like to see if she makes a fool of herself by cramming at the last minute."
Nanny An nodded affirmatively: "Of course it must be! After all, the birthday banquet was organized by the Empress herself. It would be strange if she didn't make mistakes if she took over temporarily."
After some consolation from Nanny An, Concubine Xue calmed down and was eager to watch the show.
General's Mansion.
After Nangong Yunsheng returned home from court, he went straight into the study. When he came out of the study, he was holding a few pieces of paper covered with words.
Hurry to Ruixueyuan.
"Sister, I have to go to the palace to attend the birthday banquet tomorrow.
These are the taboos and preferences of the nobles in the palace. You should keep them in mind so as not to offend them.
Also, take a look at the list of people in the capital who are hostile to our General's Mansion."
Nangong Yunxue took it and said: "Thank you for your concern, brother. I will take a closer look!
Daddy said that when I was little, the Emperor held me in his arms. Did I often go to the palace then?"
"Well, because the Second Prince Liu Hao likes to play with you, and the Emperor dotes on the Second Prince, he often asks Dad to bring you into the palace.
Later, after you disappeared, the Second Prince sent people to look for you everywhere. When you grew up a little more, he went out to look for you himself.
It was not until five years ago that he was assassinated and his legs became disabled that he gave up.
In a word, you have to stick close to your mother and the others. No matter what reason Concubine Xue and Concubine Zheng use to contact you, just use the excuse of being unwell to refuse them.
These monsters are accustomed to using despicable means."
Nangong Yunxue frowned.
"Second Prince Liu Hao, I don't remember anything at all."
"It's okay. You were too young at the time. It's normal that you don't remember anything."
Nangong Jiu was spitting out milk bubbles out of boredom when he saw the paper in Nangong Yunxue's hand and reached out to grab it.
Let me see, let me see...
Nangong Yunxue dodged left and right.
Nangong Yunsheng saw this and chuckled and said, "Jiu'er, uncle will take you to see the fish, okay?"
fish?
It’s getting cold, haven’t the fish hidden yet?
Nangong Jiu's attention was successfully diverted and he stopped grabbing the paper.
Nangong Yunsheng held Nangong Jiu in his arms and talked all the way. Soon they came to the fish pond in the front yard. He squatted down and pointed in the direction of the pond with his chin, then lifted up Nangong Jiu's little head.
"Jiu'er, look, there are so many fish!"
Nangong Jiu looked towards the pond and saw many fish swimming around in the water. He was so excited that he used his arms and legs.
“&#@*#*” a burst of humming.
A strange scene then happened.
All the fish swam towards the two men and stopped in front of them, as if they were lining up waiting to be lectured.
“&#@*#*”
It’s so cold, why don’t you hide and wait to freeze to death?
Nangong Jiu waved his hands and kicked his legs.
The fish all stuck their heads out of the water, nodded three times, and then dispersed in an orderly manner and dived into the deep water.
Nangong Yunsheng opened his eyes wide: "Jiu'er, was Yu'er bowing to you just now?"
I thought there would be no response, but unexpectedly a baby voice rang in my ears.
[Yes! ]
Nangong Yunsheng was delighted and quickly asked, "Why did they all run away?"
【It’s cold, hide.】
Nangong Yunsheng's cognition was completely refreshed by the little baby in his arms.
"Tell my uncle, what else will you do?"
Nangong Jiu frowned.
[Thunderbolt, um... um... I don't remember anything else.]
"Thunderbolt? Were you responsible for the lightning that struck the Prime Minister's Mansion?"
Nangong Jiu grinned, revealing his pink gums.
【Fragrant, roast suckling pig】
"Haha...it's really vivid! Jiuer, let me tell you, that family was struck by lightning and was horribly injured. They were all red, just like roasted pigs."
Nangong Jiu danced with joy.
[You deserve it! I'm awesome!]
"Well, our Jiuer is indeed very powerful. However, we can't show it in front of outsiders, for fear of bad people."
Nangong Jiu curled his lips.
I'm not afraid!
Nangong Yunsheng carried Nangong Jiu around again, and when he asked questions again, Nangong Jiu no longer responded.
After Nangong Yunsheng sent Nangong Jiu back to Ruixueyuan, he excitedly went to the main courtyard to find his father.
Nangong Honglie was looking for a suitable birthday gift in the warehouse.
"Dad, let me tell you something worth celebrating."
"What's the matter? Look how happy you are."
Nangong Yunsheng looked around and lowered his voice: "Jiu'er told me earlier that the thunderstorm in the Prime Minister's Mansion was caused by her.
Haha...Jiuer said the roast suckling pig is delicious!
I carried her to see the fish, and the fish listened to her and bowed to her."
"Ha ha……"
Nangong Honglie couldn't help but laugh out loud.
After laughing, he reminded: "Jiu'er is not an ordinary child. At the birthday banquet, don't let anyone else hold her except the emperor, empress, and queen mother."
"Are you worried that others might hear her talking? That shouldn't be the case, right? Mother and Feiyan and the others often hold her in their arms, but we can't hear her talking."
"What if? All we know for sure is that she'd have to be held in our arms to hear it, and we have no idea who would be able to hear it and under what circumstances.
What if Liu Heng's men heard this? What would happen?"
"Dad, don't worry. I feel like the initiative is in Jiuer's hands. Whoever she wants to hear can hear it."
"It would be nice if that were the case."
"Don't worry, Dad. You also said that Jiuer is not an ordinary child."
Suddenly...
Nangong Honglie had an idea in his mind.
