There was a shrewd minister who saw the trick.
The emperor and the princess sang the same tune, obviously they joined forces!
It must be the recent trend of comparison among concubines that angered the emperor, so he asked the princess to come forward.
Now it's time to watch something interesting.
Although the ministers were extremely reluctant, they had no choice but to respond weakly.
"No objection, we respectfully invite the princess to visit our palace!"
Emperor Dong Ling laughed and said, "The princess likes the liveliness of your home, and you are willing to invite her to your house as a guest.
Remember, the one coming to your house is not a princess, but just an ordinary colleague's child who comes to visit.
You are not allowed to reveal her identity, and you are not allowed to interfere with the family's activities. If you disobey me, you will bear the consequences yourself."
Eunuch Wei suppressed his laughter and took a few steps forward with great tact: "Dismiss the court!"
The three people and the dog returned to the imperial study and then burst into laughter.
"Haha...Grandfather, how did I perform?"
Emperor Dong Ling smiled and nodded: "Very good!"
"Yes, Princess, you may not have noticed that the faces of those ministers turned pale and blue, as if they had lost their parents."
Nangong Jiu asked Emperor Dongling proudly, "Then how about I choose a few families to visit?"
“Let’s go another day!
There’s no rush. You can go whenever you feel like it…”
As they were talking happily, Liu Hao, Nangong Yunxue and Nangong Honglie, father and son, arrived at the imperial study.
After the ceremony, several people took their seats.
Emperor Dongling looked at Liu Hao and Nangong Yunxue happily: "As long as you return safely!"
Nangong Jiu snuggled up to Nangong Yunxue.
"Mother!"
Nangong Yunxue wiped the cake crumbs off her little face and asked, "Have you visited your royal grandmother?"
"Not yet. I accompanied my grandfather to court and scolded those shameless ministers." Nangong Jiu said this before he realized it belatedly and quietly observed the expressions of several people.
Several people looked at Nangong Jiu with smiles.
Nangong Yunsheng joked, "Jiu'er, I didn't expect that you, such a small person, can be so good at scolding people."
"Uncle, I actually left some wiggle room, fearing they would vent their anger on the General's Mansion. Otherwise... hehe..."
"You haven't wronged them. We, the General's Mansion, are upright and have nothing to fear. What is there to be afraid of?!"
Nangong Honglie also smiled and said, "Even if they want to vent their anger on the General's Mansion, they need to have something to hold against them, right?
But when you go to their house, don't be fooled by their hospitality. They are a bunch of old foxes."
"Don't worry! It's not that easy to deceive me. Before I go, I will first check out the situation and I will definitely correct this evil trend."
Emperor Dong Ling said cheerfully, "Jiu'er has made great efforts today, and the imperial kitchen is preparing your favorite food.
First, accompany your parents to Kunning Palace to visit your grandmother, and have lunch in the imperial kitchen."
Nangong Jiu nodded his little head, took Nangong Yunxue's hand, and the family of three bowed and left the imperial study.
Kunning Palace.
When they arrived at Kunning Palace, Empress Chen had been waiting at the gate for a long time.
Nangong Jiu saw people from afar, and rushed forward quickly. When he got close, he stopped and gently threw himself into Queen Chen's arms.
"Grandmother, we are back!"
“I’m glad you’re back!”
Queen Chen kissed the little guy happily before looking at Liu Hao and his wife who were paying their respects.
"Hurry up, Xue'er is heavy, no need to be polite. By the way, did you suffer on the way?"
"I didn't suffer any hardship. I was able to eat and sleep well, and I came back lying down!"
"That's great! Come on, let's go in first!"
After a long separation, they reunited and told each other about the big and small things that had happened in the past few months.
Kunning Palace was filled with laughter and joy.
When talking about Nangong Jiu’s second birthday party, Queen Chen looked at Nangong Jiu seriously.
"Jiu'er, do you have any requests for your birthday party?"
"No requests! Grandmother, you've already put a lot of thought into the birthday banquet. Don't tire yourself out. Just enjoy the gathering with family and friends."
"I'm not tired, I'm happy. You may be small, but you're always so thoughtful."
Nangong Jiu narrowed his eyes with a smile and took out the pair of bracelets he had bought in Xizhou from his small pocket.
"This is a gift from my father and mother to my grandmother."
Empress Chen was so happy that she put it on her wrist and raised her hands to Nanny Chen and the others and said, "This is a gift from Xue'er to me. It's really beautiful!"
After expressing her joy, Empress Chen touched the bracelet and said, "I heard from your father that the purchase of this bracelet led to the discovery of a case of illegal mining?"
Liu Hao nodded and briefly recounted what had happened.
Nangong Jiu added, "Grandmother, that shrew was so abominable. I didn't kill her in order not to alert the enemy."
Queen Chen rubbed Nangong Jiu's little hand.
"Why did you beat her to death? You don't want to be labeled a princess who committed violence. Opening an illegal mine is a capital crime. It's better to let the law of the land judge her.
But you, if you were not my granddaughter, I would never believe that such a pair of chubby, pink and tender little hands could have such great strength.
By the way, I heard from Xiao Shunzi that you helped your royal grandfather scold those ministers.
Our Jiuer is amazing. You can say and do everything that your royal grandfather is not comfortable saying or doing."
"Hehe..." Nangong Jiu laughed foolishly.
"This is just the beginning. I'll go play with them one by one someday."
Queen Chen smiled and scratched the little guy's nose.
Several people talked about Nangong Yunxue's confinement.
"Xue'er, where do you plan to spend your confinement period?
Forget about the Prince's Mansion. I'm worried because there's no elder to look after it. This palace has everything. The General's Mansion is fine too. It's up to you."
"Thank you, Mother! You have so much to worry about, and you are exhausted.
Last night, my mother and two sisters-in-law told me that for easier care, I should stay at the General's Mansion to recuperate after my childbirth."
"Okay, I'll send some things for the children to the General's Mansion in a few days. If you need anything, just tell us. We'll come visit you when we have time."
"Okay!" Nangong Yunxue nodded with emotion.
In the evening, the family of three returned to the general's mansion.
As soon as he entered the bedroom, little Wang Xiaoxing excitedly turned into a human form.
"Your Majesty, we have fun again."
Nangong Jiu nodded: "The purpose of our going there is to make them dare not compare themselves with others about concubines and corrupt the morals of the court.
Before we go, we'll go and check it out. When we officially go, it's just a formality, just to scare them, and not to interfere in their messy affairs.
I guess some shrewd ministers would quietly dismiss the concubines, which is what I want to see."
"Shall we go now?"
"Okay, let's start with Jiang Zhengyi's family, and then look at a few representative ministers he accused.
Haha... I guess they will treat me as a plague god."
Nangong Jiu did what he said and took Xiao Wang and Xiao Xing directly out of the general's mansion.
Chiang Zhengyi Mansion.
After the court was dismissed, Jiang Zhengyi returned home full of anger.
He called the butler and asked, "How is your young master?"
"Master, the doctor just left after examining the wound. The young master woke up for a while, drank the medicine, and went back to sleep."
Jiang Zhengyi asked again.
"Where are the aunts?"
