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

Chu Ruoyan nodded slightly.

"Before the palace banquet, we went to Kunning Palace to pay our respects to Her Majesty. When Her Majesty mentioned Your Highness, she said that she had let go of everything and advised Xue'er to look forward and go out more often."

Nangong Honglie seemed to be thinking: "On the night of the New Year's Eve, we also tried to persuade Xue'er, but she didn't want to talk more."

Chu Ruoyan smiled and said, "No one knows a daughter better than her mother. As a mother, I understand Xue'er's thoughts to some extent.

She feels that she is not worthy of His Highness and does not want to delay His Highness. In my opinion, His Highness is sincere. "

"Madam, we shouldn't interfere too much in this matter. It's better to let them solve it themselves.

It is normal for Xue'er to have concerns. After all, His Highness is a rare talent..."

Chu Ruoyan nodded in agreement.

On the other side, Liu Hao held Nangong Jiu and talked to her all the way.

“Jiu’er, look, after crossing this street and turning another corner, you will reach Uncle Hao’s Prince’s Mansion.

If you know the way well, you can ask Xiao Wang to take you to the mansion to play at any time."

[Well, Xiao Wang is very good at finding his way. ]

Xiao Wang was lying on the carriage, sticking his head out of the curtain. He moved his ears and continued to watch the excitement outside.

Prince's Mansion.

The carriage went straight into the mansion before stopping.

A young eunuch brought the horse pedal, and Liu Hao got off the carriage first while holding Nangong Jiu. He then turned around and stretched out a hand to support Nangong Yunxue.

A white-haired eunuch came forward with a few young eunuchs and said, "This old servant greets Madam Xue and Princess Dingguo!"

Liu Hao smiled and introduced the mother and daughter, "He is an old man by my mother's side. After I built the palace, my mother gave him to me.

I call him Xi Bo, you can call him that too."

Nangong Yunxue squatted slightly and said, "Hello, Uncle Xi!"

"Madam Xue, you are so annoying! His Highness has always been talking about you and the princess, and today he finally has you here."

Liu Hao said to Eunuch Xi: "Uncle Xi, Xue'er and the others are our family, just go and do your own thing, there's no need to be so polite."

Eunuch Xi happily agreed, brushed towards Nangong Yunxue, and left happily, leaving two young eunuchs guarding from a distance, waiting for orders.

Liu Hao held Nangong Jiu in his arms and walked slowly with Nangong Yunxue while introducing the layout of the prince's mansion.

“This is the garden, and there is a lake behind the main courtyard, which has a nice view in the summer.

Let’s look at the front yard first, then the main yard and then the lake.”

Nangong Jiudong looked around, eyes full of curiosity.

[Uncle Hao, the houses in your mansion are all very grand.]

"Like it?"

【like! 】

Liu Hao took Nangong Yunxue and her daughter to look at the layout of the front yard and then went directly to the main yard.

"I had someone renovate this place before the New Year. The one over there is a study, the two next to it are guest rooms, and I plan to use this one as a bedroom."

Nangong Yunxue was a little curious: "There are guest rooms in the main courtyard?"

"It's better to say that it's a wing room prepared for children than a guest room. For example, if a child is too young to live in a courtyard alone, he or she can live in the guest room and be taken care of more easily."

Liu Hao smiled and explained, "There's a small kitchen at the back. If you don't want to eat the food in the big kitchen, you can make your own food. It's very convenient."

After visiting every room one by one, Liu Hao led the mother and daughter out of the main courtyard, walked all the way to the lake in the back garden, and walked along the corridor to the pavilion in the lake.

At some point, one of the two young eunuchs came forward with a thick cloak in his hand.

Liu Hao smiled and looked at Nangong Yunxue: "Although the scenery here is beautiful, it is a bit cold on the lake due to the strong wind in this season. Put on your cloak and be careful not to catch a cold."

After he finished speaking, a young eunuch holding a black cloak came forward and put the cloak on him. He wrapped Nangong Jiu tightly with his hands, leaving only his little face exposed.

After expressing her gratitude, Nangong Yunxue took the red cloak from the young eunuch and put it on.

"Here, in summer, there are lotus flowers in the lake and weeping willows by the lake. If you are interested, you can go boating and fishing in the lake."

"Brother Hao, your mansion looks quite new. It should not have been built for many years, right?"

"It was built only six years ago. I lived in it for less than half a year before something broke down. It has been empty for the past five years. Uncle Xi has been taking care of it."

After staying in the pavilion for a while, the two walked around the lake before returning to the main courtyard.

Liu Hao considerately took Nangong Yunxue and her daughter to the greenhouse that had been prepared in advance.

"You guys take a rest here for a while, I'll come back later."

After Nangong Jiu had taken care of his poop and urination and eaten his fill, he began to wave his arms and kick his legs, clamoring to be carried on Xiao Wang's back to go out and play.

Nangong Yunxue had no choice but to hand her over to Xiao Wang, who carried Nangong Jiu on his back and trotted out of the greenhouse.

He had not walked far when he ran into Liu Hao.

Nangong Jiu stretched out his hands to hug him, but as soon as Liu Hao held the little guy in his arms, Nangong Jiu started waving his arms and yelling.

[Uncle Hao, now is your chance. You should take the initiative to explain to your mother that she thinks you should find a better woman than her.]

Nangong Jiu directly betrayed his own mother.

Liu Hao nodded vigorously: "Jiu'er, Uncle Hao will always be good to you and your daughter!"

[Aiya, it's no use saying this to me, you have to tell mom, go for it bravely, Jiuer will cheer you on! ]

After talking a lot, Nangong Jiu ordered Xiao Wang to carry him to the yard.

"Xiao Wang, be careful, don't drop Jiuer!" Liu Hao shouted to the man and the dog who were running away.

Then he walked towards the greenhouse.

In the greenhouse, Nangong Yunxue was casually reading a storybook.

"Xue'er!"

"Brother Hao! The people in your house are very careful and thoughtful."

"Do you like it here?" Liu Hao stared at Nangong Xue.

"Brother Hao's mansion is big and nice, with an exquisite layout and nice scenery. Naturally, I like it."

Liu Hao was delighted.

"Would you and Jiu'er live here with me?

Apart from the servants and eunuchs, I am the only one in the mansion, and sometimes I feel quite lonely.

I have thought about it. Every summer, we will take two or three months to travel around Dongling Kingdom.

For the rest of your time, you can go to the palace from time to time to visit your father, the emperor, and your mother, and go to the general's mansion to spend time with your family.

Would you like to live this kind of life with me?"

Nangong Yunxue felt a little embarrassed by Liu Hao's question.

"Brother Hao, it's better for us to be good friends."

"Xue'er, I know what you are thinking. In my heart, you are the best and most suitable woman for me.

You don’t know that I searched for you for nine years but couldn’t find you, and later my leg was injured and became disabled.

During those days, I felt hopeless and lived like a walking corpse.

Until that day, my mother told me that General Nangong had found you and said that you had been badly bullied and wanted me to protect you and avenge you.

My heart came back to life again.

Xue'er, I love you. From childhood to now, my feelings have never changed. To grow old with you is what I want in my life."

“Things you worry about don’t actually exist, we just need to live our lives well.

Moreover, my father, the emperor, and my mother also agree."

"Promise me, we'll live together for the rest of our lives, okay?"
