Nangong Jiu ran to sit between Emperor Dongling and Empress Chen, and looked at Liu Xuan beside him.
"Hehe...Uncle Emperor, you have to give me a big red envelope today."
Liu Xuan clenched his fist against his lips, concealing his embarrassment before saying, "I've prepared something for the three of you. A big red envelope for each of you."
Nangong Jiu smiled so much that his eyes curved into crescents: "Thank you, uncle!"
Everyone entered the main hall and greeted each other in order of age.
When it was Nangong Jiu and Xiao Wang Xiaoxing's turn, they received nine big red envelopes.
Nangong Jiu looked at the stack of red envelopes in his arms and said, "Little Wang Xiaoxing, we have more money than we can spend on our training this year."
Xiao Wang nodded vigorously. "There's no shortage of meat in the Magic Forest. We just need to buy some food, vegetables, and other things. It won't cost much."
Xiao Xing cheerfully replied, "The silver in the red envelope should probably be enough."
After the New Year greetings, Nangong Jiu talked about dating.
"The Yang family are of noble character. I have carefully examined them and they have no record of bad words or deeds, or any violations of law or discipline.
Miss Yang is beautiful and intelligent, with graceful manners and good manners. She never says or does anything inappropriate and treats her servants well.
The most crucial point is that Miss Yang has been waiting for the emperor's uncle.
In the past few years, she has faced pressure from all sides and rejected many people who came to propose marriage.
Last night, her parents asked her to meet Li Zhushi from the Ministry of Justice. She asked her parents to give her another month. If she still couldn't wait for her uncle to come, she would discuss marriage.
Therefore, Miss Yang is a rare good girl.
If the uncle is interested, then take the initiative. If not, then let him give up as soon as possible and find another good partner."
Empress Chen looked at Liu Xuan and said, "With your brother's current happiness in mind, we don't want to force you to marry someone you don't like.
"Tell me what you think. Do you like her or not? The girl can't wait. Please give me a straight answer."
"She was waiting for me. It turns out she had been waiting for me!"
After hearing this, Liu Xuan couldn't help but recall the scene when he met Yang Jiaying that day.
The yellow-haired girl in my memory has now transformed into a young lady with outstanding character and appearance.
That day, she was wearing a red hooded cape and holding an umbrella as she slowly walked towards him...
That scene was deeply engraved in my heart.
That's what it feels like to be moved.
When I was with Li Qingya, I only knew how to give out of habit, and I once thought that was love.
Only now do I realize that I was totally wrong.
These days, whenever I stop, that figure will jump out and won't go away.
Thinking of this, Liu Xuan raised his head firmly and looked at his father and mother.
"This son has figured it out. This son loves her. Please grant my blessing, Father and Mother!"
Emperor Dong Ling nodded with satisfaction: "You finally got it!"
Empress Chen also nodded happily: "Since you like her, then wait until the sixth day of the first lunar month and summon her to the palace to talk with me."
"Thank you, Mother!"
Nangong Jiu deliberately pouted: "Uncle, you haven't thanked us yet."
Liu Xuan thanked him earnestly: "Uncle Emperor thanks Jiu'er and Xiao Wang Xiaoxing."
"That's more like it!"
His smug look made everyone laugh.
Seeing this, Empress Chen suggested, "How about Jiu'er come on the sixth day as well?"
Nangong Jiu shook his head: "Forget it, I'd better stay in the mansion and practice, and not join in the fun.
Besides, before things are finalized, if there are too many people, Miss Yang will feel embarrassed."
"That's true."
It was evening when the family returned home.
For Nangong Jiu and the other two, everything quickly returned to normal, and practicing and spending time with their family became two things they had to do every day.
Time flies, and it is already mid-February.
On this day, two imperial edicts disturbed the peace of the capital.
Everyone was delighted with the announcement of the succession order, and congratulations were endless.
An imperial decree granting marriage made the ministers who had daughters of marriageable age feel very disappointed.
The wedding will be held on October 28th, and he will not marry again within five years of the marriage.
what does that mean?
My daughter, who is of marriageable age, has no chance of being with that guy!
This is too damned, it makes me so angry that I have no place to vent!!
For a time, court officials were discussing the matter privately, and even malicious slander occurred frequently.
The Yang family members walk upright and stand straight, fearless and fearless.
Emperor Dongling and Liu Xuan didn't react much, but those who spread rumors and caused trouble suffered misfortune one after another.
Either he was found to have made a mistake in his mission, or he accepted bribes, and was reprimanded in court by Emperor Dongling or even demoted.
Now, the court officials finally restrained themselves.
"The Yang family has the Emperor and the Crown Prince secretly backing them up, so we should not get ourselves into trouble."
"Yeah, it's not worth it to insult others. My daughter is not destined for that. It's more prudent for her to find a good husband to marry."
On this day, Nangong Jiu was happily carried to court by Emperor Dongling.
The snacks made a "crunch, crunch" sound as she chewed them. Although it seemed that she was fully focused on eating, the court officials felt uneasy.
It's over, this little devil is here again. As usual, nothing good will happen once she goes to court. I have to be careful today.
I won’t talk about what happened today, so as to avoid being caught by her.
I have to keep my mouth shut and not get into trouble.
Nangong Jiu listened to the voices of the court officials and laughed in his heart.
What should I do? Should I give them some benefits? Otherwise, as soon as they see me, they'll think they're in trouble and be so scared they won't be able to speak or move.
[This is too boring and not a good sign!]
[No, before leaving the capital for Xiyue, I have to change my strategy and make friends with them!]
Emperor Dong Ling tried hard to control his expression and not let himself laugh out loud.
What tricks is this clever little guy going to pull off? Why am I so excited?
Nangong Jiu pursed his lips and smiled.
【Hehe, just wait and see. 】
Eunuch Wei looked at the two, one big and one small, and they looked at each other happily.
He took a few steps forward with an ambiguous tone and shouted, "If you have something to say, please report it. If not, please leave!"
The court officials looked at each other, but no one came forward to speak.
Emperor Dongling saw this and remained silent.
Nangong Jiu's eyes rolled around a few times and a plan came to his mind.
"Grandfather, how boring it is to attend court like this. Since we have nothing to talk about and we are rushing to attend court before dawn, we can't come here for nothing. How about we play a game?"
When the court officials heard that they were going to play games, their hair stood on end.
Eunuch Wei, what are you standing there for? Call for the court to be dismissed!
It’s over, it’s over. I don’t know what trouble this little ancestor is going to do next.
[You're afraid I'll do something bad, but I won't do anything bad today. I'm sorry to disappoint you.]
Emperor Dongling listened to Nangong Jiu's thoughts and said to the court officials, "It's rare that there's nothing to do today, so everyone should relax.
Since we were already here, it would be really boring to just adjourn the court. The princess said she wanted to play games, so we all played together and had fun.
Jiuer, tell me, how do you play it?"
