Chapter 46, Lend me your throne for a few days
Liu Wan hurried over and found that the originally gloomy bedroom was now peaceful under the bright moon.
She breathed a sigh of relief and found the palace maid hiding under the tree, shivering at her.
She went over to help her up and asked what happened here.
"Madam, your daughter..."
"What happened to my daughter?" Liu Wan said nervously.
"Your daughter rode the head of a female ghost as a horse."
Liu Wan was stunned.
Panchun and Wangxia behind her widened their eyes, looking incredulous.
"It's true, she climbed on the female ghost, took off her head and rode away."
"The female ghost cried and called her little ancestor, and chased into the concubine's bedroom."
"Madam, it's so scary!"
The palace maid was shaking all over when she talked about this.
She had never seen a ghost in her life, let alone a child scarier than a ghost.
She didn't dare to think about how helpless she would be if she died and met such a child.
Liu Wan came to her senses and took out a bag of silver from her body, "You may be sleepwalking. Go to Jinshan Temple to ask for a peace amulet when you have time. The Queen Mother will allow it."
The palace maid suddenly understood what Liu Wan meant, although she was scared.
"Yes, I know, I was sleepwalking."
Before Liu Wan entered the bedroom, she specifically told Panchun and Wangxia not to tell anyone about this.
Then Xia Siheng came out holding the little guy.
The two were as intimate as father and daughter.
"Thank you, Madam, for lending Wanwan. Mother is fine now."
After saying that, he handed Xia Wanwan to Panchun, his eyes still on the child.
Liu Wan bowed and said, "Your Highness, you have helped me so many times, and I am able to help you. However, the child is still young, and I am afraid that some things or rumors will cause harm to her. I hope that Your Highness and the Concubine Dowager can keep this matter secret. It will not damage the reputation of us mother and daughter."
She was referring not only to her daughter's dealings with the female ghost,
but also to the fact that they met secretly in the Concubine Dowager's bedroom at night.
Although this was nothing, it would inevitably sound bad if it got out.
This was the only time, and she would not owe the Ninth Prince a favor in the future, and would never let her daughter take risks again.
Xia Siheng understood and nodded.
Looking at Liu Wan's gentle back as she left, his heart softened, and his eyes were deep.
"It is a blessing for the Jing'an Marquisate to have such a daughter, and your blessing, Liu Wan, is still to come."
Later.
He went to the emperor's bedroom in the middle of the night. He
pulled the sleeping emperor up, "Hey, my daughter wants to be a princess, let me sit on your throne for a few days!"
The emperor suddenly woke up!
Is he dreaming?
"Ancestor, I dreamed that the late emperor told me that the child named Xia Wanwan is a person who can make the Great Xia Dynasty prosperous."wωω.ξìйgyuTxt.иeΤ
"He told me to listen to Wanwan, and if I dare to treat her badly, he will come back to me every night!"
"By the way, you just said, let Wanwan be a princess? How can a princess be worthy of her? Let her be my mother!"
The emperor muttered a lot and looked at Xia Siheng again.
Xia Siheng hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, my dear grandson."
The emperor was furious!

The next day.
Liu Wan got up early to help the fifth princess with her makeup, and ordered the maids and nannies to busy themselves.
The fifth princess had too much dowry.
Several maids couldn't finish checking it, so Liu Wan was needed to help. Liu Wan
finally finished the work. She had to follow the fifth princess' dowry back to the Shangshu Mansion.
She dug Xia Wanwan out from under the coral tree, washed her, and got on the carriage together.
When she returned to the Shangshu Mansion, Liu Wan opened the door of her own room. Everything was arranged as she liked, even her favorite pair of scissors when she was a maid were still in their original place.
Her heart was warm. Madam Liu touched her daughter's hand and said distressedly, "In the past few years, mother has asked people to clean your room every few days. Now I finally look forward to your return. Wan'er, I'm sorry that you married into the Marquis' Mansion."
As she said that, tears were about to flow down.
But Liu Wan would not allow it. The baby was still asleep, so she pulled her mother away.
"Mother, I'm not wronged. You can't cry like a cat on the day of my eldest brother's wedding."
Liu Wan said jokingly.
She also had no choice. Someone had to report the life-saving grace of her father.
She only reported good news and not sorrow in these years, and everyone thought she was living a good life.
If it wasn't for the full moon banquet, her mother saw the clues... She would have to explain again to make her mother not sad.
Madam Liu wiped back the tears from her eyes and said, "Yes, these things cannot be discussed on a happy day. Wan'er, since you are back, stay for a few days and wait for your brother to come back to see you. Your mother has a lot to say to you, and your father misses you too."
Liu Wan nodded and suddenly felt very sad.
Her family cared about her so much, but she was wholeheartedly planning for the Marquis' Mansion. She even couldn't bear to see the Marquis' Mansion go bankrupt, so she took her own dowry to make up for it.
It was just right that Li took away Zhongkui, and she could keep her own things and give them all to Wanwan in the future.
The Liu family was overjoyed. After Liu Wan rested for a while, she asked Panchun to dress up Xia Wanwan.
Xia Wanwan was still yawning with wet eyes.
She was stripped naked, put on a festive red shirt, and tied two dolls on her head with a red rope.
The dolls swayed with her mood, and there were two pompoms hanging on them.
She looked in the mirror, and her mother praised her for looking like a little Fuwa.
She covered her face with her two little hands, buried her head in her mother's arms, and smiled shyly.
Outside, everyone who saw her would praise her for being cute and festive, and some elders even insisted on putting red envelopes in her arms.
Xia Wanwan was stunned, [Isn’t this my uncle’s wedding? Why are you giving me red envelopes? I’m so embarrassed. ]
She pretended to refuse with her little hands, but the big pocket on her clothes opened inadvertently.
It was filled with red envelopes.
Seeing the groom finish his New Year’s greetings, Xia Wanwan thought that she could finally have a feast.
Braised pork, braised pork.
The little girl’s eyes lit up when she saw the braised pork. She pointed at the braised pork and screamed, "Mom... second... meat..."
Liu Wan had no choice but to pick up a small piece for her and play with the gravy.
Minister Liu looked at her in amazement. He had never seen a child who could speak so young.
"Wan'er, this little girl can already call her mother at only two or three months old. She is so smart, I'm afraid she can read and learn at the age of two."
"Or, send her to school at the age of two."
