After Ji Yueqin left, he and Nan Xuanyu got into the carriage and returned to the palace.
It was dusk again, and the afterglow of the golden sunset was pouring on the buildings of the palace complex in the distance, making the palace even more solemn and brilliant.
Nan Xuanyu knew in his heart that Ji Yueqin was a smart girl, and at the same time, she was very skillful, but it would not make people feel disgusted. Nan Xuanyu became more and more interested in Ji Yueqin. After all, her appearance and bearing are not comparable to ordinary women.
Not to mention anything else, her strong and indomitable character also impressed him, and at the same time created a desire to protect and conquer.
As a prince, Nan Xuanyu was a young man, and he saw a lot of Yingyingyanyan who were sent by courtiers, but none of them could catch his eye. Now, because of Ji Yueqin's appearance, his life seems to have added a touch of brilliance, and he can't help but feel that this boring and boring prince's life is a little more interesting.
"Brother Yu, what are you thinking about, you are so fascinated. Is there something dirty on Yueqin's face?" Ji Yueqin asked Nanxuanyu, looking at her in a trance.
When Nan Xuanyu heard Ji Yueqin ask him, he came back to his senses, smiled at Ji Yueqin and said, "No, sister Yue is very beautiful today, just like a fairy."
Ji Yueqin Nan Xuanyu said this, her slightly pale smile instantly turned red, she smiled shyly and said softly: "Brother Yu doesn't laugh at me like this."
Nan Xuanyu saw that Ji Yueqin was shy, and even had the idea of wanting to have Ji Yueqin alone, and saw that he pinched Ji Yueqin's face and asked Ji Yueqin with a smile, "Why did sister Yue treat that Chu? Eldest Miss is so caring, is it because Miss Chu invited you to sit with her, so she is so kind to her?"
After Ji Yueqin heard it, she snorted and said to Nan Xuanyu: "I'm not stupid, I will treat everyone with sincerity. But as long as I treat people with my heart, I will double my heart towards them. This is My mother taught me."
Nan Xuanyu saw that Ji Yueqin was so kind, and his heart moved, and a suspicious blush appeared on his face: "Then you and Miss Chu have known each other and become good friends, so you can help them. Then I will help them many times. You save you, when you grow up, you might as well marry me."
When Ji Yueqin listened to Nan Xuanyu's half-joking words, she blushed even more, instead of looking into Nan Xuanyu's eyes, she just buried her face in her arm and murmured, "Okay, brother Yu wants to marry a concubine. , then I have to tell the emperor's uncle tomorrow and ask him to marry you a concubine who is in charge of you."
Nan Xuanyu was a little stunned when he heard Ji Yueqin's words, and then he only thought that Ji Yueqin was only eight or nine years old, how could he understand these matters between men and women, so he stopped joking with Ji Yueqin.
Time flies, and it didn't take long before the carriage they were riding in arrived in front of the palace gate, only to see two sedan chairs parked in front of the palace gate, lined up neatly beside them.
As soon as Nan Xuanyu got off the carriage, he saw a sharp-eyed maid standing beside the carriage, bowed respectfully to Nan Xuanyu, and said, "This servant has seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and the Lord of Anning County. The Crown Prince. Your Highness, the Empress has made a special trip to send an old servant to take you to the Fengxi Palace."
Nan Xuanyu didn't know why the queen mother was looking for him, so he asked the mother aloud, "Mother Jiang, why did the queen mother look for this palace?"
"I don't know about this old slave. The Queen Mother just ordered the old slave to come to greet His Royal Highness, but did not tell why he was looking for His Royal Highness." Jiang Ma said respectfully.
"This palace knows, and I will go with my mother."
After Nan Xuanyu finished speaking to Jiang Ma, he turned around and said to Ji Yueqin, "Sister Yue, go back first, and I will come to find you to play when I have time, okay?"
Ji Yueqin nodded at him and got into the sedan chair.
Nan Xuanyu's gaze followed Ji Yueqin's figure, until the curtain of the sedan chair completely blocked Ji Yueqin's figure, and then he retracted his gaze.
Mammy Jiang saw it from the side, and secretly said in her heart, if His Highness the Crown Prince really fell in love with this Anning County Master as the Empress said, I am afraid that in a few days, His Highness the Crown Prince will be infatuated with Ji Yueqin just like the emperor of the year.
If this is the case, the empress will definitely not let Ji Yueqin go, and she will do everything possible to get rid of him. She couldn't help but sighed. Back then, she and the Empress had plotted against Duan Rou, but now that Duan Rou is dead, she still has to plot against her daughter. It seems that the Empress and Empress are born to be enemies.
When the sedan chair Ji Yueqin was in had completely disappeared from everyone's sight, Nan Xuanyu reluctantly got into his sedan chair.
Momma Jiang didn't think about it anymore, and immediately followed the sedan chair to Fengxi Palace.
The Fengxi Palace was a little far from the palace gate, but the palace servants who carried the sedan chair were very strong and arrived at the Fengxi Palace not long after.
After the sedan chair stopped, Nan Xuanyu walked straight to the Fengxi Palace, and Jiang mama did not dare to stay behind.
I saw the queen sitting dignifiedly at the table, her face a little unhappy, but when she saw Nan Xuanyu coming in, she squeezed out a smile and greeted Nan Xuanyu warmly.
"Yu'er, you haven't had dinner yet. Come and sit next to the mother." The queen had not seen her son for a long time. Although she also called him here this time, she was very happy.
"The son-in-law has seen the queen mother. The mother-in-law is so eager to call the son-in-law to come, why?" Nan Xuanyu's tone revealed a sense of alienation.
Although the queen was Nan Xuanyu's biological mother, but Nan Xuanyu was taken away by the emperor since he was a child, so naturally he did not have much affection for his mother.
Seeing Nan Xuanyu's alienated appearance, the queen couldn't help but feel a little lonely, but she didn't want to show her slightly embarrassed appearance, so she pulled Nan Xuanyu with a smile and said, "Why, the queen mother wants to see my son more often. is it not OK."
"My son doesn't dare, it's just that the empress called her so eagerly and thought she had something to instruct her." Nan Xuanyu looked at the ground without raising his eyelids after listening to the queen.
"The mother just wants Yu'er to accompany her to eat."
After the queen smiled and said to Nan Xuanyu, she instructed Mammy Jiang behind her, "Mama Jiang, go and ask the imperial kitchen to serve dinner."
After giving the order, he kindly pulled Nan Xuanyu and said, "Today, my mother made a special trip to ask someone to make Yuer's favorite food, and Yuer should eat more."
Nan Xuanyu nodded and didn't answer any more. His eyes swept the vases and small objects displayed around him inadvertently, and suddenly found that it was different from the last time, so he asked casually, "The objects in the mother's harem have changed again. already?"
The queen's body froze slightly after hearing this, but she still smiled and said to Nan Xuanyu: "Yu'er really cares about her mother, and even remembers the little things in her mother's harem. Oh, before these things It was smashed by Lu Lian in a few days, and the mother sent someone to replace it with some new ones."
Nan Xuanyu didn't make a sound, just nodded and stopped making a sound.
The relationship between their mother and son is really delicate. Anyone who hears that their son cares about something and doesn't ask if his mother is well will be amazed.
In this way, the delicate atmosphere was maintained until dinner was over, and just after dinner, Nan Xuanyu wanted to get up and retire, but was stopped by the queen.
"Is Yu'er going out of the palace with that girl Ji Yueqin today?" The queen gnashed her teeth when she mentioned Ji Yueqin.
When Nan Xuanyu saw the Queen mention Ji Yueqin, he put on a brilliant smile at the Queen's mother for the first time ever, and his tone was not as cold as before, instead he said warmly: "Erchen did go out of the palace with Sister Yue today to visit Chu. Miss."
Seeing her son's appearance, the queen couldn't help but think of the appearance of Duan Rou mentioned by Nan Ruiyuan, and she was even more angry.
But she still has to maintain a dignified and dignified appearance in front of her son, "Yu'er as a prince is still less than that girl Yueqin, and she must focus on political affairs, besides, the mother has already ordered Yuer's concubine. Candidate, your father and emperor will definitely not let that girl Yueqin be your side concubine... "
Before the queen could finish speaking, she heard Nan Xuanyu's slightly angry voice saying: "What? How can the queen mother appoint a concubine for her son? Oh, the son told the mother that the position of the son's queen can only be Sister Yue, I don't want to marry her!"
After finishing speaking, Nan Xuanyu walked away, walked to the door, and turned back to the queen and said coldly, "My mother is not worried about my son's marriage. The mother still thinks more about the father and the harem, and the son will retire. "
When the queen heard Nan Xuanyu's words, she was so angry that she covered her heart and pointed at the door: "You unfilial son! You really want to be mad at me..."
Seeing the Queen's appearance, Madam Jiang stepped forward and gently stroked the Queen's back with her hands, "The Queen's wife does not need to worry, maybe His Royal Highness just has a good impression of the Princess Anning for a while, why don't we do it someday? Bring Miss Duan into the palace and get along well with His Royal Highness, so maybe His Royal Highness will treat Miss Duan differently?"
The Empress slowly calmed down and snorted: "Bengong thinks that Zhilan is Yu'er's best candidate for the concubine, and the most important thing is that Zhilan is the daughter of Bengong's elder brother, only in this way can Bengong be this one. Bian's power is more consolidated. As for Ji Yueqin, it's better to... "
The Empress whispered to Mama Jiang, and sat there with a gloomy expression.
After hearing this, Jiang mama couldn't say what her expression was, but she looked at the queen with some worry and said: "Empress Empress, this servant thinks this is inappropriate, if the third prince is favored because of the Anning County Lord, I'm afraid... ... is not good for His Royal Highness."
The queen glanced at Jiang Mama and said, "What do you know, if the two of them are allowed to sleep together, it will not only ruin Ji Yueqin's reputation, but also make Nan Xuanjue lose power completely, and at the same time it will be broken. Do you understand Yu'er's thoughts on marrying Ji Yueqin?"
Mammy Jiang lowered her head and said respectfully, "It's still as thoughtful as the mother-in-law thought, this is a three-bird plan with one stone!"
The queen took a sip of the fragrant tea at hand, and continued: "Okay, the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet will be in a few days, you go to prepare first, and send a letter to Duan Guogong's mansion, saying that the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet will be held. Zhilan dresses up well."
