As soon as Gu Yuanniang finished speaking, Xu Miaomiao rubbed her sleepy eyes and said to her in a daze: "Nangong Jin, why is he here now?"
Although she said this, Xu Miaomiao still got up and prepared to wash up.
"I've asked someone to welcome you in. Please hurry up. They are waiting in the living room."
"I know, Liu Niang."
Seeing Xu Miaomiao hurriedly packing her things, Gu Yuanniang laughed and left with Nian Miao in her arms.
Perhaps it was because she didn’t get enough rest for her homework, Xu Miaomiao was so sleepy that she could hardly open her eyes. She washed her face twice with cold water, and then she felt much clearer.
"Beautiful sister!"
The sudden shout scared Xu Miaomiao away all her sleepiness, and she immediately ran over when she saw the little girl in front of her.
She was running too fast just now, and the hairpins on the little girl's head were still swaying, which made people feel happy.
Xu Miaomiao was about to speak when a woman suddenly came forward and supported Nanzhi, whispering in her ear, "Ninth Princess, you can't run away so fast. It will break the etiquette of the royal family."
As soon as she finished teaching the Ninth Princess, the woman immediately looked at Xu Miaomiao in front of her and said, "I originally said that the princess was on a private visit in disguise, but since you know the princess's identity, why don't you perform the greetings?"
Xu Miaomiao was shocked by this.
"Mammy, she is my good friend, you don't need to bow to me. Are the beautiful sister Erbao and the others in the backyard? I want to go find them!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the little princess ran away immediately, and the tutor Momo followed her immediately. Seeing this, Nangong Jin could only shake his head helplessly.
Seeing that Xu Miaomiao was still there, he walked towards her and bowed to her.
Xu Miaomiao returned it immediately.
"We were planning to leave tomorrow and go back to the capital, but the Ninth Princess missed you today and insisted on coming to see you. Otherwise, she would not leave. We really have no choice but to come and bother Madam Xu."
Nangong Jin's words were well-reasoned and polite. Xu Miaomiao smiled and said nothing more: "It is natural for children to miss their playmates. It is rare that Mr. Nangong has such a good temper and even came with the Ninth Princess. Does Princess Jiahe know about this?"
Xu Miaomiao was really frightened by what happened to Princess Jiahe these past few times. If it happened again, she might not be able to withstand it.
Nangong Jin shook his head: "She really couldn't stand the environment in Bai County, so she went back early."
That’s good, that’s good, Xu Miaomiao thought secretly.
"The Ninth Princess wanted to come with us earlier, thinking that there wouldn't be so many twists and turns in the capital. But ever since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince learned about the Ninth Princess' assassination, he immediately sent a governess to bring her here, saying that she would be with her all the time and that she would be required to regulate her words and actions. Now the Ninth Princess is probably having a few days off."
As Nangong Jin said this, the smile on his face did not diminish at all.
"Children are supposed to act up when they are young. The more you regulate her behavior, the more you will push her too hard. It's better to relax a little. But it's hard for her to be a princess. She grew up in that place, and her every word and action is involved in so many things."
Hearing Xu Miaomiao's words, Nangong Jin did not respond, but just smiled and nodded, looking in the direction where the two people disappeared, and looked at each other in silence.
"Little princess, slow down. It's inappropriate for you to run around like this. You are a princess and you can't do this!"
Seeing the little princess running briskly in front of her, the governess could only follow behind her immediately, without even taking a breath, until Nan Zhi ran to the backyard and stopped.
Erbao, who was swinging on the swing from afar, jumped for joy when he saw Nanzhi and immediately ran towards Nanzhi.
When the governess came over, she only saw Nan Zhi and Er Bao huddled together, while Xiao Bao was standing there blankly.
Seeing this, the nanny was startled and immediately stepped forward to push Erbao and check if Nanzhi was okay. She didn't breathe a sigh of relief until she saw Erbao standing in front of her intact. "Princess, you are a royal family, how can you stay with a peasant woman's child? This will damage the reputation of the royal family."
Erbao clapped his hands and stood up, looking at the woman in front of him with a pouty mouth: "We are friends, why did you come up and push me without knowing the truth?"
When Xiaobao, who was standing by, saw his sister being bullied, he immediately stepped forward and helped Erbao clean the hem of her skirt.
"What friends?" The woman glared at Erbao in dissatisfaction before speaking: "Our princess is the most beloved little princess of the emperor's family. Can anyone be her friend?"
"Besides." The woman looked at Nan Zhi and continued, "Your Highness wants to make friends. The daughter of the Duke of the capital and the daughter of the Princess of Shuyang are both of similar age to the princess and can be her friends. Why does she have to be with a lowly person like you?"
"Don't say that, Xiaoyue!"
Nan Zhi pouted in dissatisfaction and stood in front of Erbao.
The nanny was stunned for a moment, then walked up to Nan Zhi and began to persuade her, "Your Highness, you must have been bewitched by them now. When we return to the capital, I will find you a good friend."
"Mammy, the rules you taught me before were all correct."
After being asked by Nan Zhi, the woman was still a little confused, but she nodded: "Of course, Princess, I am the best tutor in the palace, how could I teach you wrong things."
When Nan Zhi heard this, her eyes turned and she immediately said, "If that's the case, then Madam, you should kneel outside the courtyard. You are not allowed to get up until I leave."
"What!"
The nanny was a little shocked when she heard this. She knelt down in front of several children, and in the mansion of such a small county magistrate. If the news spread back to the capital, she would not be able to save her face: "What did I do wrong? The princess actually treated me like this."
Nan Zhi raised her chin proudly when she heard this: "Mammy, you said I am the ruler and you are the subject, whatever I say is what you have to do, why are you disobeying me now!"
Perhaps because she was a member of the royal family, Nan Zhi actually carried some authority when she said this.
The governess was unable to utter a word at this moment. She could only lower her head and said "yes" in a low voice before pushing the child out of the yard.
Nan Zhi immediately patted the dust off Erbao's body with concern: "Are you okay? I hope you didn't get hurt just now."
"It's okay. My second sister has always liked to play around since she was young. It's okay for her to fall so lightly."
When Xiaobao said this, the two little girls looked at him in unison.
"Hey, I'm not your real sister anymore!"
