Emperor Dongling finished speaking.
The ministers all shut their mouths.
Without any objections, Emperor Dongling walked briskly back to the imperial study.
He sat down in front of the jade table, thought for a moment, and then said to Eunuch Wei, "Lai Fu, draft the decree!"
Half an hour later, Eunuch Wei, holding the imperial edict and a string of rewards, walked out of the palace in a high-profile manner and went straight to the general's mansion.
Ruixueyuan.
These days, Nangong Jiu is no longer satisfied with just strolling in Ruixueyuan.
He waved his chubby little hand to direct Xiao Wang, walked out of Ruixue Courtyard, and went to the main courtyard of the General's Mansion, ready to lie down and swim in the back garden of the General's Mansion.
Because she had Xiaoxing, Xiaowang, Ayu and Ajie to protect her, Nangong Xue let her go.
This attracted a crowd of servants to watch.
"Oh, will Miss Jiuer fall down?"
"That's right, what will happen if you fall down?"
A servant tried to carry the person down, but Ah Yu appeared and stopped him: "Don't worry, she won't fall."
Chu Ruoyan and the others rushed out upon hearing the news: "Jiu'er, you're here?"
Nangong Jiu danced with joy, grinned and hummed happily.
Zhou Yuyao clapped her hands and praised: "That's great. With Xiao Wang taking care of Jiuer, my sister feels much more relaxed."
Xiao Wang carried Nangong Jiu on his back, followed by a large group of people. They walked around the courtyards of the mansion as if on inspection, and finally came to the back garden.
Several children followed behind, extremely envious.
Nangong Zhi was itching to ride: "Sister, Brother Zhi'er has only ridden a horse, not a dog. Can Brother Zhi'er also ride Xiao Wang?"
Nangong Jiu raised his little arms happily. Xiao Wang got the order and turned his head to pick Nangong Jiu up and hand him to A Yu who appeared.
Next, each child rode Xiao Wang for a lap in the garden. Even Nangong Rui, who was like a little adult, got to experience riding Xiao Wang with Xu Feiyan's nod of support.
The children screamed with excitement.
Nangong Jiu waved his arms and grinned, saying "Hehe".
"Yeah, it's so stable, not bumpy at all!"
"It's so comfortable, much more comfortable than riding a horse..."
“Hehe…”
The laughter in the garden reached the ears of Nangong Honglie and his son who had just returned from court in the front yard.
Nangong Honglie called a servant and asked, "It's so lively, what are they doing?"
"The young masters are riding the dogs."
"Ride Xiao Wang?" Nangong Honglie glanced at Nangong Busheng and said, "Let's go and take a look. It's not good to upset Xiao Wang."
The father and son hurried to the back garden.
At this time, all the children had ridden a round and were discussing what to do next. Xiao Wang sat aside, sticking out his tongue and smiling at everyone.
Seeing this, Nangong Honglie hurriedly took Nangong Jiu from Ayu's hands: "Jiuer, does Xiao Wang like to play like this?"
【like! 】
Nangong Honglie was a little unconvinced and called out softly, "Xiao Wang, come here."
Little Wang turned his head to look at the children, wagged his tail, ran over with a silly smile on his face, and squatted in front of Nangong Honglie.
Nangong Honglie saw this and touched Xiao Wang's head with his free hand: "Would you like to play like this with the children?"
Xiao Wang nodded and wagged his tail a few times.
Nangong Honglie smiled: "Good dog! Remember, if you don't want to play with them, don't force yourself."
Xiao Wang nodded again, picked up Nangong Jiu's clothes, put Nangong Jiu on his back, and ran to the children.
Now, the children have a plan: "Sister Jiuer, let's play hide-and-seek. We hide and you find us, okay?"
Nangong Jiu grinned and raised a chubby little hand to show his approval.
The children quickly dispersed and hid themselves.
Xiao Wang carried Nangong Jiu on his back, sniffing the scent and listening to the instructions. Accurately, he grabbed the children's clothes one by one and dragged them out from their hiding places.
Several children and a dog were laughing and playing together, Xiao Wang was jumping around, and Nangong Jiu on his back was always lying steadily, mumbling baby words that only she, Xiao Wang and Xiaoxing could understand.
Nangong Yunsheng persuaded Nangong Honglie: “Dad, it’s okay, they are having fun, Jiuer is a child now and needs playmates.
On the surface, Xiao Wang was playing with Zhier and the others, but in reality, he was trying to make Jiuer happy. Look, Jiuer's little mouth never closed with joy."
"Yeah!" Nangong Honglie also saw what was going on and nodded in agreement.
Just as the adults were laughing and the children were having fun, a guard came running over.
"General, Young Master, there's an imperial decree from the palace. Everyone should go to the front yard to receive it!"
Nangong Honglie and Nangong Yunsheng smiled knowingly, called everyone over, and went to the front yard with Nangong Yunxue who had rushed over after hearing the news.
Front yard flower hall.
Chu Feng had already invited Eunuch Wei into the flower hall and served him tea and snacks.
Eunuch Wei was treated with courtesy and nodded happily: "Young man, I recognize you. I saw you at Miss Jiuer's full moon banquet."
"Yes, the general just promoted me to be the housekeeper a few days ago."
"Oh, not bad, not bad, good job young man."
"My father-in-law is right!"
When the family rushed to the front yard, Eunuch Wei and Chu Feng were chatting animatedly.
Seeing the family, Eunuch Wei quickly bowed and congratulated: "Congratulations!"
After exchanging pleasantries, seeing that everyone was present, Eunuch Wei unfolded the imperial edict in his hand.
"By the providence of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims: General Nangong Honglie's daughter, Nangong Yunxue, and granddaughter, Nangong Jiu, rescue me and the Empress from danger, and save the Dongling Kingdom from disaster.
In gratitude for your contributions, I hereby confer upon Nangong Yunxue the title of First-Rank Lady Xue, ennobling her with a state salary. I also adopt Nangong Jiu as my granddaughter, conferring her the title of Princess Dingguo, and granting her fiefs in Jingxi Gong County and Yi County. This is my decree!
Eunuch Wei walked up to the stunned Nangong Yunxue with a smile, and said to Nangong Jiu, who was waving her arms and kicking her legs in Nangong Yunxue's arms: "Princess Dingguo, accept the order!"
[Great! Mother has received an imperial decree, and it’s even of the first rank. This piss-off dad off!]
Eunuch Wei originally wanted to tease Nangong Jiu, but he didn't expect Nangong Jiu to actually stretch out his chubby little hand and grab the imperial edict and refuse to let go.
"Oh my, Princess Dingguo, you also know that this is a good thing? Haha..."
Nangong Yunxue finally came back to her senses and kowtowed in thanks: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace. Long live the Emperor!"
Eunuch Wei helped Nangong Yunxue up and said, "We can no longer call you Miss. We must change to Madam Xue. Madam, you are a blessed person. You will have a good life in the future. Congratulations!"
"Thank you, Eunuch Wei, for your kind words!" Nangong Xue squatted slightly.
Chu Feng was very attentive and stuffed a bulging purse into Eunuch Wei's hand.
"Thank you for your hard work, father-in-law. Please have a cup of tea!"
Eunuch Wei thanked him and waved to the palace maid: "This is the emperor's reward for Madam Xue and the princess."
Then he took out the gift list: "A pair of jade ruyi, a pair of glass cups, two pieces of moonlight brocade, ten pieces of cloud brocade..."
Eunuch Wei's voice became distorted before he finished reading the gift list.
He happily put the list into Nangong Jiu's arms: "The emperor also left a verbal order: Xue'er and Jiu'er should come to the palace more often."
After saying this, Eunuch Wei made another mysterious revelation.
"The Queen has prepared a surprise for you to enter the palace."
