Chapter 20: Stupid



Xu Feiyan nodded as a matter of course.

"Of course I will."

"Sister-in-law, I have enough clothes. I made a few sets when I first came back, and now I have made three more. I have enough to wear."

"That's different. I made a fitted outer coat before, but this time I'm making a thin cotton coat. I'll make a thicker cotton coat in a few days."

Chu Ruoyan agreed with a smile: "Your sister-in-law is the head of the family. She knows who should make what clothes."

Nangong Yunxue had no choice but to follow her instructions and take her clothes to the inner room.

After a while, she came out gracefully in a lotus-colored embroidered brocade long dress.

Everyone looked at Nangong Yunxue and was speechless for a moment.

Nangong Yunxue looked at everyone's expressions.

She turned around and went into the house, changing into a light green double-layered jacket and skirt.

After coming out, seeing that everyone still had the same expression, she went back to change into another smoky-colored long dress. No one spoke again.

Nangong Yunxue was completely lost in confidence at this point: "Is it ugly?"

Everyone came back to their senses.

"It looks good, so good, you are just a dresser!"

Zhou Yuyao walked a few steps to Nangong Yunxue and circled around her a few times.

"Sister, as a woman myself, I envy you!"

Xu Feiyan nodded in agreement: "Yes, sister, you look good in anything you wear, and the first one is the most eye-catching.

Moreover, the first dress matches the red color on Jiuer very well.

It’s decided. I’ll wear the first outfit to the birthday party tomorrow.”

“Wouldn’t that be too ostentatious?”

"How could that be? The Queen Mother likes everyone to dress up beautifully."

Yes, that’s what my brother wrote too.

Nangong Yunxue smiled and nodded.

night.

After a day of socializing outside, Nangong Honglie's first thing when he returned to the general's mansion was to ask whether Nangong Yunxue and her daughter had slept.

Chu Ruoyan asked curiously: "Husband, is there something wrong?"

"Well, I got some news today."

"What news?"

"It's good news. The Queen is back in charge of the harem."

Chu Ruoyan was delighted.

"The Empress has not appeared in public for several years. It is indeed good news that she is back in charge of the harem."

Nangong Honglie smiled and nodded: "Well, now you don't have to worry, Xue'er was targeted by Concubine Xue at the birthday banquet.

Back then, the Empress loved Xue'er the most, so she would definitely take care of her a little bit."

Chu Ruoyan agreed repeatedly: "Tomorrow, we will go to the palace early and pay our respects to the Queen first."

"Of course, we'll go after lunch. However, we have to pay our respects to the Emperor first, and then you can go to Kunning Palace."

"Alright! But, how did Her Majesty the Queen suddenly come to her senses?"

Nangong Honglie pondered for a while.

"Over the years, for the sake of the Second Prince, she was willing to put aside her edge and accompany and take care of him.

Now that the Fifth Prince has entered the court to participate in politics, he is being suppressed everywhere. If she doesn't step forward and gather some connections, the Fifth Prince will find it even more difficult to move forward."

"Then my husband and the boss should help him more in the court."

"Of course!"

The next afternoon.

The whole family dressed up and entered the palace in two carriages.

Nangong Yunxue looked at Nangong Honglie and Chu Ruoyan: "Daddy and Mommy, should I go see the Second Prince?"

Nangong Honglie pursed his lips and said, "Logically speaking, you should go see him.

Let's see what the Emperor and Empress say first. I heard that the Second Prince's temperament changed drastically after he was injured and he doesn't want to see anyone at all."

Nangong Yunxue hugged Nangong Jiu in her arms.

"What I'm worried about is not this, but my identity, which will bring him unnecessary trouble."

"That's why we should listen to what the emperor and the others have to say."

"All right!"

As they were talking, the carriage arrived at the city gate.

Because they arrived early, there were not many people at the palace gate. The family entered the palace smoothly and went directly to the imperial study.

At a corner, the family stopped.

Nangong Honglie looked at everyone.

"You wait here for Xue'er. We will take them to meet the Emperor. Later, you can go to Kunning Palace together."

Imperial study.

Eunuch Wei, who was standing outside the imperial study, saw Nangong Honglie and others approaching from a distance, and hurried into the imperial study to report.

"Your Majesty, General Nangong and his son are here with Miss Nangong and the child."

Emperor Dongling raised his head from the jade table and said, "Let them in quickly."

Eunuch Wei agreed and hurried out to stand on the steps waiting. When someone approached, he greeted them with a smile.

"General Nangong, the emperor is waiting."

"Okay, please, sir!"

"General Nangong, you're too polite. Please come in!"

When Emperor Dongling heard the noise, he put down what he was doing and looked towards the door with a smile.

When he saw Nangong Yunxue holding the child, he smiled and nodded: "Xue'er has grown up!"

Several people hurriedly took a few steps and saluted.

Nangong Yunxue knelt and bowed: "Xue'er greets the emperor!"

Emperor Dongling winked at Eunuch Wei, who quickly stepped forward to help the man up.

"Don't be so reserved. When you were little, you often called me uncle, and I held you in my arms many times.

You have suffered a lot outside, so take care of yourself in the future."

"Yes!" Nangong Yunxue responded softly.

Emperor Dongling looked at Nangong Yunxue carefully: "You were cute and well-behaved when you were a child, and now you have grown into a dignified and beautiful woman. You have changed a little compared to before.

However, the red mole between the eyebrows is easy to spot."

As he spoke, he shifted his gaze to Nangong Jiu in Nangong Yunxue's arms.

Smiling, he walked to the jade table and said, "Hurry up and bring the child here so I can see him."

Nangong Yunxue followed his instructions and stepped forward, pushing Nangong Jiu to the side.
