"Squeak~"
The door to the main hall was suddenly opened from the inside, startling Mei Dan and the others who were waiting outside. They then realized it was their young lady.
"Greetings, Your Majesty the Empress"
In an instant, the palace servants knelt down in neat rows, bowing respectfully to the ground.
After being pestered by Qin Mobei for three days, Nan Qing was still a little bit embarrassed.
"Cough cough"
"Mei Dan, you and Lan You will come with me back to the Prime Minister's residence."
After saying that, Nanqing walked forward.
"Also, remember to call Zhuxi and Juying."
After getting up, Mei Dan looked at her mistress and then noticed the bundle hanging on Nan Qing's shoulder.
!! !! !! !! !!
How dare you!
What a burden! My young lady has to carry it herself!
Before she could even grasp the meaning behind Nan Qing's words, she swiftly snatched the bundle from the young lady's shoulder and hung it on Lan You's shoulder.
Then he straightened up, crossed his hands over his abdomen, and respectfully addressed his young mistress:
"Your Majesty, His Majesty has not yet finished court. He said he might be a little late today and asked us not to disturb you. Why don't we wait until His Majesty finishes court and then go with him?"
Nan Qing's eyes lit up when she heard that Qin Mobei wouldn't be leaving court so soon.
Very good.
Now's the time!!!
If Qin Mobei were here, would I still be able to escape?
Nan Qing hurriedly called to Mei Dan and Lan You while walking forward quickly.
"Hurry up, let's go back to the manor first."
Mei Dan urged Lan You to quickly inform Zhu Qing and Ju Ying, while she herself hurried to catch up with her young mistress who was walking very fast ahead.
"Miss"
"No, Your Majesty, it's not over there..."
"The way out of the palace is this way~"
Nan Qing was slightly embarrassed, so she quickly turned around, picked up Xiao Ba, and continued walking in the direction Mei Dan pointed.
Mei Dan hurriedly followed her young mistress's fast-paced steps, no longer caring why her mistress was in such a hurry to leave the palace and return to the Prime Minister's residence.
Anyway, whatever her young lady does is right.
She goes wherever the young lady goes.
Lan You and the other two caught up with Nan Qing and the other two just as they were about to leave the palace gates, and the group of five thus successfully left the palace.
Meanwhile, Qin Mobei, who was still in the Golden Palace listening to a group of old, arrogant officials wailing and pleading that the imperial concubine selection system should not be abolished, was completely unaware that his wife had gone back to her parents' home!
She abandoned him and ran back to her parents' house!
...
"Miss, aren't we going back to the Prime Minister's residence?"
"Yes"
"Juying, quick, I want one of those little kites too!"
Yes, it's the one at the very top.
While eating the glutinous rice cake in her hand, Nanqing replied to Lanyou's words, and at the same time instructed Juying to buy the most beautiful kite from the stall.
As soon as the kite was bought, the little girl's round eyes spotted another stall, and she shoved the glutinous rice cake she was still eating into Zhu Qing's hand before running over.
"Hey, they sell tofu pudding here!"
"Boss, five servings of tofu pudding, please!"
After saying that, he found a clean little table and sat down to wait for the owner's tofu pudding.
Mei Dan and the others could only follow their young lady from one stall to another.
"Here's your tofu pudding, sir/madam!"
"There are seasonings on the table; you can adjust the flavor to your liking."
With a clear purpose, Nan Qing picked up the chili sauce and diced radish on the table, carefully poured in a little soy sauce, and used a spoon to gently break the whole tofu pudding so that the spiciness could penetrate into the tofu pudding.
Mei Dan and Lan You both picked up another jar of soup syrup and did the same thing, scooping a small half-spoon of soup syrup into the tofu pudding.
It has to be said that there was indeed a sense of servants following their masters. The group happily ate tofu pudding and then strolled along the street, visiting one shop and stall after another.
She had no recollection of the fact that her purpose in leaving the palace was to return to the Prime Minister's residence to complain to her parents and two older brothers.

Phoenix Palace
"Heh~"
Qin Mobei stood in the main hall of Fengyi Palace. The atmosphere around him was terrifyingly heavy. The hall was filled with people kneeling on the ground, including the chief steward Wang Fu, who had served him for many years.
no way.
Who told His Majesty to rush to the Empress's Phoenix Palace right after court?
All I saw was the Phoenix Palace, where the Empress was not present!
Oh my god!
This is the first time I've heard of a case where an empress ran away to return to her parents' home.
Wang Fudu cried out for justice for his poor emperor.
His Majesty treats the Empress so well, how come the Empress doesn't understand His Majesty?
How could you just run away with your clothes in your pocket?
If you're going to run away, at least take His Majesty with you... Ugh, no, His Majesty can't be taken away in a bag.
In short... alas, we are all here alone to bear the emperor's majesty.
Wang Fu was heartbroken.
Wang Fu
Wang Fu, whose mind was filled with all sorts of crickets, quickly replied:
"His Majesty"
"Prepare yourselves, we're going out of the palace to fetch the Empress."
Qin Mobei said the last sentence through gritted teeth.
Why did his empress abandon him and go back to her parents' home?
He's so good to his girlfriend.
They didn't even say hello.
That's going too far!!
We're newlyweds, and the Empress doesn't recognize me after she puts on her clothes?
Are you going to abandon me?
Is she going to find another new love interest who has ulterior motives, is fickle, and unfaithful...?
Thinking of this, Qin Mobei exuded an aura of menace, and said in a sinister low voice:
"Hehe, Qingqing, you'd better hide well in the Prime Minister's residence."
"But please don't let me catch you, or else... heh."
...
Shen Shi (3-5 PM)
Prime Minister's Residence
Having eaten and drunk his fill and clearly satisfied with today's itinerary, Nan Qing finally returned to the Prime Minister's residence leisurely with his four guardians.
Seeing the vermilion gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion from afar, a gate that exudes the family's glory, I always felt as if I had forgotten something.
Forehead……
But forgetting it probably doesn't matter.
Nanqing walked happily towards the mansion, while Jiang Nanhui, who had been hiding behind the gate for a long time, saw that his delicate and soft younger sister had finally returned and quickly ran out.
Before Nanqing could even speak, Jiang Nanhui grabbed him and dragged him inside.
"Qingqing, where have you been all day?"
"Your second brother has been waiting for you at the gate for almost an hour."
"What do you think? Why didn't you come back sooner?"
"Your second brother is on the verge of a nervous breakdown."
Jiang Nanyu kept talking non-stop, and Nanqing couldn't keep up at all, so she could only follow her second brother forward.
No, what are you waiting for me to do?
With Juying and the others around, I won't get lost.
Oh, right, Chrysanthemum Shadow!
Juying still has the leftover milk skin and cherry pancakes from me, I hope Lanyou doesn't eat them all.
Just as Nanqing was about to turn around and remind Juying to remember to take her milk skin and cherry fritters, she heard her mother's slightly anxious voice.
"Qingqing, why are you only coming back now? Did you go to look at clothes and jewelry?"
Nanqing was also very happy to see her mother, and sweetly and affectionately said to her:
"No, Mommy, I ate lots and lots of delicious food today!"
"There are candied hawthorn berries, tofu pudding, sugar cakes, milk skin, glutinous rice cakes..."
"So when I got excited, it got a little late."
Nanqing not only spoke with a smile, but also counted out what Jiang's mother had eaten that day by hooking her finger.
Anyone could see that Nanqing was having a great time today.
Madam Jiang: "..."
Cough cough, my child, it's not that your mother doesn't want to save you,
"You really can't even see your mother's expression?" Madam Jiang was starting to doubt herself. "Isn't it said that mothers and daughters are connected at heart? Where is this connection?"
Madam Jiang quickly interrupted Nan Qing, who was still reciting the names of the dishes to herself, and winked at Nan Qing again, hoping that she would look inside.
"Cough cough~"
"My dear, His Majesty has been waiting for you for several hours."
Suddenly interrupted, Nan Qing quickly raised her hand to cover her face.
We're doomed.
Just say you forgot something.
She forgot she was married.
She married the current emperor and now lives in the palace. Moreover!! Today she ran away from the palace to come home and complain.
