After his inner voice was read, the little cannon fodder became the darling of the world

Nangong Jiu, however, kept the secret.

[Mother, my stomach is empty and I have no strength. ]

Nangong Yunxue smiled and tapped Nangong Jiu's forehead: "Naughty!"

After Nangong Jiu had eaten and drunk his fill, he took out a basket of peaches and a pot of fine liquor.

Suddenly, the house was filled with the fragrance of peach.

Nangong Yunxue opened her eyes wide as she looked at the basket of juicy, bright peaches in front of her.

"Where do such big peaches come from in the middle of winter?"

[These are the peaches and nectar given by the Queen Mother! ]

"What? Peaches?"

Fairy fruit peach!

Nangong Yunxue couldn't believe it.

【Yes! 】

"Oh my god, how did you get this?"

[Of course I got it fair and square!] Nangong Jiu was a little proud.

[These were given to the great grandfather and great grandmother, and seven were left for the New Year's Eve, and everyone shared them.]

"There are seven more?"

[Yes!] Nangong Jiu took out another basket, picked up one and gave half to Nangong Xue.

【Mom, eat this quickly. It will keep you healthy and pain-free, and prolong your life! 】

Nangong Yunxue waved her hands excitedly: "Mother, please eat with everyone else. Give more to your great-grandparents. They are old now, so they should feel better after eating."

【You eat this half first, and save the other half for everyone to eat together. 】

[When the time comes, each of my great-grandfather will get one, my maternal grandfather and my uncle will each get one, and the remaining one will be given to my four little brothers and sisters.]

[Don't worry, mother. Great-grandfather and his family have eaten the peaches and drunk the nectar, so they will be in good health.]

"Mother thanks you on behalf of everyone!"

Nangong Yunxue picked up the peach and took a bite with a look of happiness on her face. She immediately tasted the peach fragrance in her mouth and it was so sweet that it filled her heart.

[Is it delicious? I've eaten a lot of it before.] Nangong Jiu swallowed quietly.

"Yeah, delicious!"

[Then eat quickly, mother, you will surely live a long life! ]

Nangong Yunxue put Nangong Jiu down, found a knife, cut two pieces and put them in Nangong Jiu's hand.

"Be good, eat too, but be careful not to choke!"

Nangong Jiu held the peaches and looked at Nangong Yunxue.

My mother always thinks of me, and I want to take this opportunity of offering a birthday gift to pave the way for her.

Nangong Jiu made up his mind, grabbed the peach and stuffed it into his mouth, smacking his gums hard.

Nangong Yunxue picked up Nangong Jiu, and the mother and daughter looked at each other with smiles, eating the peaches happily.

New Year’s Eve, afternoon.

Nangong Yunxue and her daughter dressed up and rushed to the front yard with Xiao Wang. Nangong Honglie and his son were waiting in the flower hall.

Nangong Yunsheng looked at Nangong Jiu curiously: "Xiao Jiu'er, what birthday gift did you prepare for your royal grandmother? Take it out and let us see it."

Nangong Jiu blinked his big eyes and hid his hands.

Confidential!

Don't show it...

"Oh, it's still a secret. Are you planning to give everyone a surprise?"

“Hehe…” Nangong Jiu grinned, with two dimples appearing on his face.

"Haha...Okay, if you don't want to watch it, then don't watch it. We'll watch it at the palace banquet."

Several people were amused by Nangong Jiu's cleverness.

Nangong Honglie said, "Let's go. They are already waiting at the gate of the palace. Let's go into the palace early and talk to the emperor first."

After they left the mansion, everyone was waiting in the carriage.

Several little guys poked their heads out excitedly: "Hurry up, we're waiting for you!"

"coming."

Two carriages slowly drove towards the palace.

Royal study room.

It was New Year's Day, and Emperor Dongling had a rare day off, waiting happily in the imperial study.

"Laifu, send someone to the palace gate to say hello. Nangong Honglie and his family can come directly to the imperial study in a carriage. The weather is cold, don't let Jiuer get frozen."

Eunuch Wei agreed with a smile, walked to the door and gave a few instructions, and a young eunuch ran away.

Half an hour later.

The two carriages separated after entering the palace gate, one going to Kunning Palace and the other going to the Imperial Study.

Eunuch Wei was waiting at the bottom of the steps, watching the carriage stop.

"General, you are here! Come in, please!"

Nangong Honglie and his son, and Nangong Yunxue and her daughter, stepped into the imperial study at the warm invitation of Eunuch Wei.

"I have met the emperor!"

"Xue'er greets the Emperor!"

Xiao Wang sat up and arched his front paws.

"Everyone, get up!" Emperor Dong Ling raised his hand happily.

"Everyone sit down!"

After everyone was seated, Emperor Dong Ling looked at Nangong Jiu in Nangong Yunxue's arms, and then looked at Xiao Wang squatting beside Nangong Yunxue.

"I haven't seen Jiuer for a month."

Nangong Yunxue nodded: "It's been snowing a lot these days and it's a bit cold, so no one goes out much. When the weather warms up, let Jiuer come to the palace to visit you more often.

This time, Jiuer also prepared a special birthday gift for the Empress, saying that it was only for the Empress Dowager, you, the Queen, Brother Hao, and the Fifth Prince.

She said that after taking it, she could live longer and be free from illness and pain.”

Emperor Dongling believed it without a doubt.

"Thank you so much Jiuer!"

Nangong Yunxue looked at Nangong Jiu who was still sleeping in her arms.

"Your Majesty, when I give you the gift later, I will say that the birthday gift is given to me by the gods."

"Okay, okay! This makes more sense!"

"Then I'll go to Kunning Palace to see the queen."

"Did the secret guards bring it with them?"

"I have it with me, Your Majesty, rest assured!"

Emperor Dong Ling nodded: "Go!"

Watching people walk out of the imperial study, Emperor Dongling looked at Nangong Honglie and his son.

"What is it?"

Nangong Honglie smiled: "I don't know! When we were in the mansion, we asked to see, Jiuer looked mysterious and hid very well."

"Haha... maybe the birthday gift is not simple, we are blessed!"

Emperor Dong Ling thought for a moment and shouted to the sky: "Someone come!"

The leader of the secret guards, Ajie, showed up and said, "Send a few more people to Kunning Palace to protect Xue'er, her daughter, and the birthday gift."

"Yes!" Ajie took the order and left.

Kunning Palace.

When Nangong Yunxue and her daughter arrived at Kunning Palace, Empress Chen was chatting with Chu Ruoyan and others.

"Xue'er greets the Queen, and wishes the Queen a happy birthday and eternal health and beauty!"

"Okay, okay! Xue'er, come and sit down!"

Queen Chen looked at Nangong Jiu and asked, "Is Jiuer asleep?"

"Yeah, I slept all the way."

"It's still early. Let her sleep a little longer so she can have enough energy to play at the palace banquet later."

"Yes!"

During the chat, Empress Chen happily revealed: "Hao'er can now walk normally. He moved back to his prince's residence half a month ago. I guess he will soon enter the palace."

Nangong Yunxue was very happy to hear this.

"That's great! A man as brilliant as Brother Hao should be able to walk and run freely and do whatever he wants!"

"This is all thanks to Jiuer!"

"My Lady, you treat us mother and daughter like your own children, and we treat you as our own family too. There's no need to be so polite."

Empress Chen nodded repeatedly: "You are right, we are relatives who have been through thick and thin together.

After what happened to Hao'er and the Xue family, I have now let go of everything and figured it out.

You also need to let go of the past and look forward, and go out for a walk when you have nothing to do. "

"Thank you for your advice, madam!"

As they were talking, several more female relatives came to pay their respects. Nangong Yunxue took Nangong Jiu and retreated to a side hall.

Nangong Jiu woke up slowly when the palace banquet was about to begin.

After eating and drinking, he took out the birthday gift, covered it with red silk, and let Xiao Wang carry it.

[Mother, are you ready? ]
