I'll tell you the secret and let's laugh together!

There was a banquet in the palace in the evening, which Emperor Muwu specially held for General Ning and his wife.

Although it was night, it was not dark. Hundreds of lanterns illuminated the palace as bright as day.

Officials and their families entered the palace one after another. Ning Shengan and Mu had not stopped since they entered the palace. Waves of people came over to greet them.

Some people sincerely congratulated the two on their return alive, while others just came over to greet them out of respect.

The generals under the command of King Zhenbei all had fake smiles on their faces. It could be said that they were the ones who least wanted Ning Shengan to come back. They had finally managed to snatch some of Ning Shengan's military power, and they were afraid that they would have to give it back soon.

Now that I have got it, how can I bear to let it go!

Prince An drank some wine and boasted to the royal relatives around him.

"You were not there, so you didn't see the thrilling scene. The arrow was aimed at my vital point. At the critical moment, when I was about to be shot into a hedgehog, Huaiyuan came down like a god, and shot down the arrow in a few strokes, saving my life. Otherwise, you might have come to attend my funeral today."

The other royal family members sighed in grief. Just by listening to Prince An's narration, they knew how critical the situation was. They had lived a life of luxury since childhood and had not yet enjoyed a lifetime of wealth and glory. What they feared most was dying inexplicably one day.

"General Ning is truly a god!"

"That's right. How can an ordinary person rescue Prince An from such a dangerous situation?"

Prince An held his head high, and his whole body looked as if he was bathed in the spring breeze. That’s right, praise him as much as you can!

"But Huaiyuan is not an ordinary person. He is a person favored by the Buddha. You may not know that he was saved because Master Liaokong received guidance from the Buddha. That's how we found the dying Huaiyuan. The imperial physician said that if it was a quarter of an hour later, it would be too late."

"But we managed to find Huaiyuan just before this crucial quarter of an hour. What does this mean? It means Huaiyuan is not destined to die. Even God doesn't want Huaiyuan to get into trouble. This is God's arrangement!"

"We Huaiyuan are the people favored by God!"

Prince An spoke in a very loud and passionate voice and had already become the focus of the scene.

Under Prince An's passionate speech, everyone present heard what he said and showed expressions of sudden enlightenment.

So that’s it!

If this explanation is true, everything makes sense. Master Liaokong received instructions from the Buddha and reported it to Emperor Muwu immediately. Emperor Muwu then sent people to rescue General Ning, but he was dying and never woke up.

It was not until a few days ago that the seriously injured General Ning regained consciousness. Such a hero who sacrificed his life for the country and the people faced slander as soon as he woke up.

It's simply outrageous!

Prince An's statement was the result of a discussion between him, Emperor Mu Wu and Ning Sheng'an. The three of them knew clearly that it was thanks to Ning Zhiyi and Xi Tong that they were able to survive, but this was a secret that could not be made public.

In the current situation, they need a legitimate excuse that can be publicized to the whole world. After several people discussed it, they came up with this method.

Ning Sheng'an, who was surrounded and blocked by the crowd and whose throat was about to smoke after talking for a long time, originally wanted to go to Prince An's place to have some quiet time, thinking that everyone here was a royal relative and the ministers would not chase him here to greet him.

As a result, after taking just two steps, he heard Prince An's increasingly generous words. In particular, Prince An's mouth was like he had taken some medicine and he couldn't stop for a moment. After he finished explaining what happened, he began to praise Ning Shengan again.

The words of praise were all unique and they made Ning Shengan's face burn. He gripped the ground with his toes and decisively turned to the other direction!

On the other side, Princess Yong'an looked at Ning Zhiyi, who looked very different today, and felt that the pastries in her mouth had no taste at all.

He reached out and touched Ning Zhiyi's palm, "Zhiyi, you didn't catch a cold, did you? That's not right, your palm isn't hot, so what happened to you?"

Ning Zhiyi ate the pastries in small bites. She had to eat three or four bites of the pastries that she could finish in one bite before.

"Princess, what's wrong?"

An Xiang put down the cake in her hand and laughed twice, "Sister Ning, I feel like you are acting weird today, like you have become a different person."

"Yes, that's the feeling. Now you are like someone has kidnapped you and your personality has changed. If you are in danger, just blink your eyes." Princess Yong'an clapped her hands, thinking that An Xiang's description was particularly accurate.

"puff!"

Ning Zhiyi was amused by her description.

"Princess, what are you thinking? How could I be kidnapped? This is my true character. Don't look at me like that. I'll be shy."

Princess Yong'an was stunned. To be honest, she had never seen Ning Zhiyi so pretentious.

An Xiang couldn't stand it anymore, so she quickly pushed all the cakes in front of her to Ning Zhiyi, "Sister Ning, don't do this, I'm scared!"

"What's wrong with you two? Am I not normal? Sister Yue, what do you think?"

Ning Zhiyi looked at Yue Shuyue beside him. Very good, the pressure was put on Yue Shuyue.

Among the four people, she had the least contact with Ning Zhiyi, and logically should have known Ning Zhiyi the least. However, after the two of them had contact for a short period of time, she found that not only was there no sense of unfamiliarity between them, but on the contrary, they got along very well.

Yue Shuyue thought that she still understood Ning Zhiyi. It was not that it took a long time to understand a person thoroughly, but it depended on the degree of intimacy.

Princess Yong'an and Ning Zhiyi are good friends who like to eat melons. When they are together, either they are eating melons or Princess Yong'an is secretly eating melons. An Xiang is a fan of Ning Zhiyi. No matter what Ning Zhiyi says, she thinks it is right.

Her excessive admiration also made her miss the opportunity to get to know Ning Zhiyi better.

Yue Shuyue thought about it, looked at General Ning and his wife not far away, put on a mysterious smile on her face, and winked at Princess Yong'an and An Xiang.

"I guess Zhiyi wants to behave well in front of his parents."

Ning Zhiyi smiled widely and covered her face with her hands. "Ah, you found out about this. Let me tell you a secret. My parents have always thought that I was a very gentle little lady."

Mu was sitting not far from Ning Zhiyi. Princess Yong'an glanced at Mu's slightly trembling shoulders and asked uncertainly:

"you sure?"

Ning Zhiyi nodded affirmatively, "Of course, I know my parents best among the five siblings. The main reason is that they like to speak to me in a mixed voice. Then, when I hear their voices, I can't help but want to act more ladylike, and misunderstandings arise like this. I think this is a good thing, so I never pointed it out."

Princess Yong'an glanced at the Mu family again, and then at Ning Zhiyi, who was so happy that her teeth were showing. Suddenly, she felt that this family was enjoying it.

She did not change her clothes after arriving at the palace, and someone was so careless that she forgot the small props on her collar. What she thought was laughter and conversation between sisters actually spread throughout most of the banquet hall.

Emperor Mu Wu, who was sitting at the top of the table, couldn't help but laugh. He clinked his glasses with Ning Sheng'an, "Did you really not notice Zhiyi's unique 'little personality'?"

It was self-evident what this "unique little personality" meant. Ning Shengan nodded and said helplessly:

"Ning Zhiyi is our only daughter, and the youngest. My husband and I have spent most of our energy on her. How could we not have noticed? We were just teasing her. Who would have thought that this silly girl thought we hadn't noticed."

Although they are already middle-aged, perhaps because of years of martial arts training and the treatment provided by the system, the couple are still handsome and beautiful.
