At this time, Luo Xiangqin and Liu Lanqing started to move things from the courtyard into the carriage, and Hai Moying immediately ordered his men to pack up.
But Ning Zike came to the Buddhist temple specifically and asked He Guyu to go to Kyoto with him.
He Guyu: "Yes, I will definitely ask the doorman to look after the Buddhist hall."
Afterwards, He Guyu ran to tell the doorman that he would light incense on his behalf every day, and only during the few days when He Guyu was away.
Fang Men readily agreed. Besides, since it was a request from a person who was favored by the Third Young Master, how could he dare not agree?
Several carriages and a group of people went to Kyoto in a mighty procession.
By the evening, all the servants in Princess Roujia's mansion were in high spirits, decorating the house with lights and lanterns, and the cooks in the kitchen also prepared quite a rich meal.
"Uncle Shi, you have to welcome all the distinguished guests at tomorrow's birthday banquet in your house." Ning Xiaotang was speaking in her main hall at this time.
Shi Yicheng immediately bowed and said, "Yes, I respectfully obey the princess's order!"
At night, Ning Xiaotang washed up and went to bed early. The next day she had to enter the palace at the hour of Yin to wait for the summons.
On the morning of the tenth day of the second month of the 239th year of the Qingye Kingdom
A carriage went from the princess's residence all the way to the palace and stopped at the west palace gate.
Ning Xiaotang entered the palace, performed the formal greetings, and received the reward. She felt that the jewelry on her head was pressing down on her thin neck, which was about to bend down.
"Ye Jingxiao, will you come to my house later?" At this time, Ning Xiaotang was sitting on the soft bridge in the palace on the way out of the palace.
"Of course I will be there to congratulate you on your birthday!"
Afterwards, the soft bridge from the palace was delivered to Ximen's carriage, and then he took Ning Xiaotang's reward and returned.
Ye Jingxiao immediately said, "Were you nervous when you met the emperor just now?"
Ning Xiaotang took a deep breath at this time: "Isn't it normal to be nervous?"
"Then you go back to the Princess's Mansion first, I'll be there later."
"Okay, then I'll go back first!" Ning Xiaotang immediately bowed and got on the carriage.
She admitted that she was indeed nervous when she saw the emperor just now, so much so that when she kowtowed, her head fell softly on the floor, and her forehead almost touched the floor.
The emperor was a man of supreme power, a man who walked with the gait of a dragon and a tiger. He simply rewarded the newly-appointed Princess Roujia with some ingenious toys and said a few casual words before sending her off.
If Ye Jingxiao hadn't been there, the emperor would probably have skipped the meeting.
Ye Jingxiao walked back to the palace with an unhappy look on his face.
Quan Yue said in the carriage, "Miss, have you seen the emperor?"
"Well, I did see him, but I didn't see the emperor clearly!"
"Miss, the emperor's majestic face is not something that ordinary people can see. Most people bow their heads when they go to express their gratitude. How could they dare to look up?"
At this time, Ning Xiaotang immediately said in a low voice: "Then I have to see what the decisive and ruthless emperor looks like. Fortunately, I didn't look up too high, but the emperor still looks handsome, and he looks somewhat similar to Ye Jingxiao!"
"Ah, girl, how dare you raise your head and face the emperor?" Quan Yue was immediately stunned.
"It's so hard to get into the palace, so of course I have to see the face of the most honorable emperor." Ning Xiaotang immediately smiled mischievously.
"Ye Jingxiao, you are so brave! You actually said that you want to get engaged to this Princess Roujia?" The emperor was very pleased.
"Father, I may not live past the age of eighteen. Can't you please grant me such a small request?"
"But she is just the daughter of a small farmer. How can she become the principal wife of a prince?"
"I just want to get engaged to her. As for whether I can live to the age of 18 to marry her, that is not something I consider!" Ye Jingxiao looked calm, as if he came here just for this matter.
"You~ You have better options, why would you choose someone who can't help you at all?"
"Just because she is Ning Xiaotang, the only one in the world!" Ye Jingxiao said immediately without frowning.
The emperor looked at his son, who looked as if he would be unhappy if he didn't agree, and was at a loss for a moment.
"Then you choose two concubines. If you agree, Ning Xiaotang will be the main wife!"
Ye Jingxiao just recalled when he was leaving the palace that the emperor had chosen the concubine, so he just had to not bring her into the palace, or send her to live on the farm after she entered the palace, so as to avoid being troubled by seeing her!
Xu Qingfeng immediately said, "Master, if you don't choose a concubine, aren't you worried that you won't be able to accept the one the emperor arranges?"
"Hmph, no matter who he arranges for them, they will all be sent to live in the manor from now on!" Ye Jingxiao immediately said with an unhappy expression.
Xu Qingfeng immediately couldn't hide his smile and said, "The master really loves Miss Ning!"
"Let's go to Princess Roujia's mansion!" Ye Jingxiao said to Xu Qingfeng.
"Yes, let's go to Princess Roujia's Mansion!" The carriage immediately changed direction and left.
In Princess Roujia's mansion, Hai Moying sneaked into the side hall where the gifts were received.
Just as Hai Moying reached out to touch a valuable ornament, a voice immediately rang out: "Second Madam, this is a gift from my daughter. Please don't touch it lightly!"
Ling Lang immediately appeared coldly and said this.
Hai Moying naturally knew Ling Lang. That secret guard killed people without blinking an eye and had great martial arts skills.
She could only force a smile and said, "I'm just taking a look."
"Please leave, Madam!" Ling Lang immediately bowed politely, looking very cold.
"Hmph! Just go away! What kind of person are you? You don't even want to take a look!" Hai Moying immediately became furious. She almost touched the ornament. It was given to her by the Empress in the palace. It was absolutely luxurious and extraordinary. She was so envious!
Ling Lang looked at Hai Moying's back as she left, with a look of wariness towards her.
No wonder the girl asked me to guard these gifts, to prevent people like the Second Madam from taking advantage of them!
"Ling Lang is guarding here, and we can't get in, girl?" Yan'er immediately said this to Qian Fangchun.
"What? That Ning Xiaotang actually sent secret guards to guard here?" Qian Fangchun said with a twisted mouth in anger.
"Yes, what should we do, girl?" Yan'er immediately said with a worried look on her face.
"Hmph, go see if you can seduce Ling Lang and get him to leave this side hall with you."
Yan'er blushed and said, "Then I'll try my best."
After a cup of tea, "Ah!" Yan'er was thrown out by Linglang and fell to the ground. Her head was facing the ground and her butt was higher than her head, which was very indecent.
Qian Fangchun immediately appeared: "How is it? Are you okay?"
"Miss, I feel dizzy and disoriented!" Yan'er fainted immediately after saying this.
"Xin Tao, wake up Yan'er!" Qian Fangchun was so angry that smoke was about to come out of his nose.
Xin Tao immediately brought a small basin of water and poured it on Yan'er's face.
