Emperor Dongling nodded.

The father and son exchanged glances, and Nangong Honglie spoke.

“Your Majesty, I only have one daughter, Xue’er. Our family has finally been reunited, and we will be apart more often than not in the future.

My request is very simple, that is, after the wedding, they must spend one of the three days they are in the capital at the General's Mansion."

Emperor Dong Ling was quite surprised: "That's it?"

Nangong Honglie nodded heavily: "Yes, that's the only request!"

"What's the difficulty? As long as they are willing, it's no problem for them to stay in the general's mansion every day, as long as they come to the palace every now and then to see me and their mother.

In short, the children can live their lives however they want, and I will not interfere or force them."

"really?"

"Of course I take it seriously! My words are my bond and I mean what I say. Do you have any other requests, such as a betrothal gift?"

"I have no other requests."

Emperor Dongling laughed loudly: "Then I will ask Minister Zeng to calculate a good day, and I will grant them a marriage."

"It's up to the emperor to decide."

The few of them discussed the marriage easily and happily.

Just as Nangong Honglie and his son were about to say goodbye, Nangong Jiu rushed into the imperial study with Xiao Wang.

"Grandfather, Grandfather..."

Emperor Dong Ling was overjoyed and quickly picked up the little guy: "Jiu'er is here? Where's your mother?"

"Mother, behind me."

Nangong Honglie laughed heartily.

"When Jiuer came back yesterday, she couldn't speak clearly. Maybe because she was happy to be home, she can speak two words now."

Emperor Dong Ling looked at Nangong Jiu in his arms.

"Jiu'er, you have made great efforts in the surrender of Xiyue. Grandfather Emperor has taken out 10,000 taels of silver notes from the national treasury as a reward, and will reward you with another box of silver in private."

Nangong Jiu's eyes sparkled with red stars. He was so happy that he forgot to follow the rules and blurted out three words: "So many!"

Xiao Wang quickly reminded: "Your Majesty, take it easy, otherwise others will be surprised."

"understood."

Nangong Jiu twisted his little body happily.

[Wow, so much silver. One box has several thousand taels. It's enough for us to travel next year.]

[As for the ten thousand taels of silver, give it to mother as a dowry.]

After hearing this, Emperor Dong Ling asked tentatively: "Do you approve of your mother and uncle getting married?"

"I agree, that's a good thing!"

"Haha...Okay, you are a good and sensible child!"

After the praise, Emperor Dongling turned around and ordered Eunuch Wei: "Go and get the silver and banknotes!"

Eunuch Wei agreed and went out.

At this time, Nangong Yunxue stepped into the imperial study, took a few quick steps forward and saluted: "Xue'er greets the emperor!"

"Get up, have you been to Kunning Palace?"

Nangong Yunxue smiled and shook her head: "Not yet, I came directly to the Imperial Study."

"Well, stay in the palace for two more days this time. The queen talks about you and your daughter every day."

"Yes!"

Nangong Yunxue and Nangong Honglie, father and son, greeted each other and sat down.

At this time, Eunuch Wei brought in a box of silver and presented the silver bills.

Emperor Dong Ling took it and handed it to the little man in his arms: "Here, it's all yours."

Nangong Jiu took it with a smile: [Hehe... I like silver the most, thank you, Grandfather! ]

With a wave of his hand, he put the silver into his small pocket, slid down the ground holding the banknotes, and ran to Nangong Yunxue.

"Grandfather Emperor, the reward is for you!"

Nangong Yunxue shook her head: "Since it is a reward given to you by your royal grandfather, you can just keep it and don't have to give it to mother."

"Dowry, to support oneself." Nangong Jiu explained seriously.

Nangong Yunxue's face suddenly turned red all the way to her neck.

"Jiu'er..."

"Keep it, don't worry." Nangong Jiu patted his chest.

The people present all understood what the villain meant.

They all advised: "If Jiu'er can rest assured, you should keep it."

Nangong Yunxue hugged Nangong Jiu into her arms.

Such a small person, but she always thinks about herself. She must have accumulated blessings for several lifetimes to have such a mother-daughter relationship.

Hearing his mother's thoughts, Nangong Jiu folded the banknote with a smile, put it in his mother's arms, patted it, and felt relieved only when it was safely put away.

Emperor Dongling said to Nangong Honglie and his son, "Let's have lunch in the palace and get together."

Nangong Yunxue hugged Nangong Jiu and stood up: "Let's go to Kunning Palace to see the queen first."

"Okay, go ahead and tell the Queen that we will have lunch together in the imperial kitchen."

"Yes!"

After leaving the imperial study, Nangong Jiu whispered in Nangong Yunxue's ear: [Mother, the emperor's grandfather and grandfather are discussing your marriage with uncle.]

"Oh, how do you know?"

[I heard that Grandfather said to ask the Ministry of Rites to choose a good day. Jiuer is happy for you.]

Nangong Yunxue kissed Nangong Jiu's little face: "Well, uncle and mother love you."

[I know. By the way, why didn’t you see your uncle? ]

"He's probably busy with something. You miss him after just one day of not seeing him?"

[I thought about it, I feel very happy to have my mother and father loving me. 】

Nangong Yunxue teased her deliberately: "Aren't you afraid that you will have brothers and sisters in the future and share this happiness?"

[I'm not afraid. I have more brothers and sisters to accompany my mother. I feel very satisfied when I have someone to call sister.]

Hehe... I've always been a younger sister, and I also want to be a older sister to have some fun.

Imagining a few little people following behind her and calling her sister, Nangong Jiu suddenly felt a sense of accomplishment in her heart.

The mother and daughter chatted all the way and soon arrived at Kunning Palace.

When Empress Chen heard that the mother and daughter had entered the palace, she had been waiting in the hall for a long time. When she saw the mother and daughter, she was so happy that she talked and laughed.

"Oh, Xiao Jiuer, you guys haven't been here for a few months. I feel like I have no motivation to do anything. I always feel like something is missing.

Seeing you, my heart is filled with joy. This time, I have to stay in the palace for a few more days."

Empress Chen called Nanny Chen over and asked, "Aren't they done yet?"

Nanny Chen smiled and nodded: "I went to check earlier, there is still a little left, I think it has been finished by now."

Nangong Yunxue was completely confused.

Nangong Jiu smiled when he heard the thoughts of Empress Chen and Nanny Chen.

It turned out that my uncle was in the warehouse, counting the betrothal gifts for my mother.

Hehe...you have a betrothal gift, and we also have a dowry, Nangong Jiu proudly raised his tail.

Not long after, Liu Hao came out of the warehouse and entered the main hall. Seeing the mother and daughter, he greeted them with a smile.

"Xue'er, you are here."

"Well, Brother Hao, what are you busy with?"

Liu Hao patted his clothes and said, "Nothing, I'm just tidying up the storeroom for my mother."

"Oh, are you done? Can I help you?"

"Already sorted."

"Then come and sit down and rest for a while."

Nangong Jiu covered his mouth and laughed.

Silly mother, you are so easy to fool.

Empress Chen hugged Nangong Jiu and said, "Jiu'er, tell the Empress Dowager what delicious food you want to eat. The Empress Dowager asked me to make it for you."

Nangong Jiu fiercely waved her hands.

[Grandfather Huang said that they all had lunch in the imperial kitchen...]
