Tongjia asked Hexue, "Hexue, are you taking Nanxing with you to Fujian this time?"
Tongjia asked this because Nanxing was already engaged. During the time Nanxing was injured, the steward Xiaolin always sent things to Nanxing under various pretexts.
One day, He Xue bumped into them, and He Xue quickly learned of Xiao Lin's feelings after a little probing.
He Xue asked Nan Xing what she meant, and Nan Xing shyly replied that she would listen to He Xue's opinion.
Xue didn't understand anything this time; the man was in love, and the woman was willing, so she was happy to make it happen.
However, Nanxing said that she was not in a hurry to get married. She wanted to stay by Hexue's side for a while so that Qingdai could be fully competent to stay by Hexue's side.
He Xue didn't force her. Nanxing had been by her side since birth, and marriage was a major life event. She didn't want Nanxing to get married in a daze. She still needed to prepare a dowry for Nanxing!
This was the first wedding she had seen since arriving here, so it couldn't be too shabby.
However, given the current situation, it seems she won't be able to attend Nanxing's wedding.
"Mother, Nanxing is already engaged, so it's not appropriate for her to go to Fujian with me. Qingdai is already quite capable. Let Nanxing stay in the capital!"
After learning that Nanxing was getting married, Hexue immediately transferred Qingdai from the secret guard to the open guard.
"Alright, you can handle things in your own courtyard!" Tongjia said to Hexue.
He Xue returned to her courtyard and told Nan Xing about it.
After hearing this, Nanxing refused to get married and insisted on going to Fujian with Hexue.
He Xue looked at Nan Xing with a mix of amusement and exasperation, "Nan Xing, if Xiao Lin finds out, he'll definitely come after me!"
“That’s right! Nanxing, you haven’t seen how much Xiaolin has been walking with a swagger ever since Gege agreed to let you marry him!” Xia Bing teased from the side.
Nanxing lowered her head somewhat embarrassedly, "Princess, if he doesn't agree, I will cancel the engagement with him!"
He Xue knew that Nanxing was not joking, and immediately said, "Nanxing, marriage is a major life event, and it cannot be taken lightly!"
Although you can't come to Fujian with us, you can stay in Beijing and help me manage the shops here!
Besides, it's not like we're not coming back. Maybe we'll be back soon!
So don't easily say things like "calling off the engagement with Xiaolin!" Xiaolin would be heartbroken if she knew!
"This servant understands!" Nanxing replied.
Nanxing instructed Xia Bing and Qingdai, "Xia Bing, Qingdai, you must take good care of the princess!"
"Don't worry, we will definitely take good care of Gege!" Xia Bing said with some sadness.
Qingdai nodded in agreement.
"Xia Bing, you might be too impulsive in the future. Qingdai has only been here for a short time and is not familiar with many things. You need to take better care of her!" Nanxing said to Xia Bing with concern.
"I understand!" Xia Bing noted them all down.
"Alright, don't be so sad. We're not leaving right now!" He Xue said, taking out a box and handing it to Nan Xing.
"Nanxing, we probably won't be able to make it to your wedding. This is the dowry I've prepared for you! Don't refuse, just accept it!"
"Thank you, Princess!" Nanxing accepted it with both hands.
"When you two get married, I will prepare the same dowry for you, and I will definitely not let you suffer any injustice!"
Although He Xue appeared to be a child of only a few years old, she was actually in her twenties. She didn't feel there was anything wrong with preparing a dowry for Nan Xing, who was several years older than her.
"Princess, I don't want to get married. I'll stay by your side forever!" Xia Bing said.
"Yes, that's right!" Qingdai said, quite satisfied with her current life.
"Whether you get married or not, I will prepare everything for you!" He Xue said.
"Thank you, Princess!" Xia Bing moved closer to Nanxing. "Nanxing, look what Princess prepared for you!"
"Open it and take a look!" He Xue said with a smile.
Nanxing opened the package and stared in shock at the contents: a house deed, a shop deed, and silver notes. "Princess, this is too valuable! This servant cannot accept it!"
"Take this! It's for you, and it will give you confidence in the future. If Xiao Lin treats you badly in the future, you can divorce him or even break off the engagement!"
"If he bullies you, fight back. If I find out you're putting up with it, don't call yourself one of my people! Remember, a woman must love herself before she can love others!" He Xue lectured Nan Xing.
"Yes, Princess, I understand!" Nanxing replied with red eyes.
A month was about to pass, and Xue was preparing to go to the palace to say goodbye to the Imperial Noble Consort and also to see Consort Hui and the other three.
When He Xue arrived at Chengqian Palace, Emperor Kangxi was also there.
The Imperial Noble Consort was very sensitive to cold, so charcoal braziers had been lit in Chengqian Palace.
As soon as He Xue entered, she felt a wave of heat hitting her face.
"Aunt, how have you been lately?" He Xue asked worriedly, as the Imperial Noble Consort had caught a cold twice recently.
