After traveling through time, I became the aunt of the loyal dog emperor

"Why do you want us to deliver it?"

After leaving the Queen Mother's Buddhist Hall, Wan Ning immediately fiddled with the gift that Princess Hejing had given to the Emperor, except that the exquisite wooden box it was in was locked. Even though she tried her best, she couldn't get a glimpse of the secret inside, so she handed the box to Wan Ning in frustration.

Wan Ning only thought that this gift was specially sent from Tumo by Feiyu to the emperor, which made the princess unhappy, so she carefully persuaded: "Maybe this matter is handed over to the princess, and all related matters have been handed over. If the princess is unwilling, let me go to deliver it."

After saying that, Wan Tao did not forget to secretly observe Wan Ning's expression, fearing that she would have a rift with the emperor because of this matter. Unexpectedly, Wan Ning waved her hand nonchalantly and said proudly: "It's just a gift, a small matter. It just happens that I haven't seen the emperor for a long time, and this time I went there at the order of the empress dowager, which is fair and legitimate."

"Princess, why did you look so worried just now?" Wan Tao asked.

"Me?" Wan Ning recalled and answered embarrassedly, "Because I really want to know what this mysterious gift is. If I don't know, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight. By the way, Wan Tao, you entered the palace early. Have you heard about the past between the emperor, me and Princess Hejing?"

Wan Tao nodded and recalled the fragments she had heard in the past. She walked and whispered: "I know very little. The emperor once specifically ordered that the palace should not discuss this matter, but I have also heard a few words from the old people in the past. It seems that in order to prevent the marriage, the emperor agreed with the emperor to go to the battlefield in person. If they could win, the decision of marriage would be cancelled. But the war was not over yet, and the marriage team set off for Tumo. I guess they haven't seen each other since then."

Wan Ning had heard Mu Xiu tell the rest of the story. On the battlefield, Ziheng fell into a trap set by the enemy and his own people. He watched the people around him die tragically and was left with only half his life. After returning from the battlefield, he refused to see anyone and disappeared without a trace. There were some rumors among the people that the prince had died on the battlefield, but the news was blocked.

As they were talking, the two had already arrived at Ziheng's office. The door was closed and Fang Xiong was standing at the door with a face that said "no strangers allowed in". His face, as cold as ice, smiled a little more when he saw the princess and Wantao, and stepped forward to salute: "Your humble servant Fang Xiong greets Princess Le Yan."

"You're welcome," Wan Ning tilted her head and looked at the closed door behind her, asking, "Is anyone there?"

"Yes, Lord Fu Yuanlang and Lord Wang Ji are here. Princess, please wait a moment, I will go and inform them." After saying that, he turned around and was about to walk inside.

Wan Ning quickly stopped him and explained, "Since Master Fu and Master Wang are here, they must be busy and it is inconvenient to disturb them at this time. Look, there is a small pavilion over there. Let's go sit there for a while and wait."

"Yes!"

The two of them sat in the pavilion opposite to each other, making sure they would be able to find it once the door opened. But they waited and waited, and when their butts ached, they stretched their bodies, and when they felt sleepy, they took a nap again, but it still didn't seem to end. In a daze, Wan Ning suddenly smelled a very fragrant roast duck, and then suddenly fell off a cliff, and suddenly woke up, it turned out that everything was a dream.

She wiped her saliva, tilted her head sleepily and asked Wan Tao who was standing beside her: "How long has it been?"

"It's almost three hours."

"Six...six hours. One meeting is almost as long as an eight-hour workday. Is there anything important to discuss? Has any of them ever come out?"

"No."

Wan Ning stood up and stretched her stiff body, then took the wooden box from Wan Tao and said, "I thought it was an easy job, but I didn't expect it to take so long. Now it's your turn to lie down and rest for a while, and I'll keep an eye on it."

"No...no." Wan Tao was about to stand up in panic, but was immediately pushed down again.

"It's okay, just take a rest. It's been a six-hour meeting, I don't know if there's anything to eat, I'm afraid you'll be starving." Wan Ning couldn't help feeling a little distressed, but she quickly realized that such a long meeting must mean something big is going to happen. She paced back and forth in the small pavilion, figuring that Fu Yuanlang, who was attending the meeting, was recommended by Prince Qi, and that Mr. Fu was a loyal supporter of Prince Qi. As for Wang Ji, although he was reused by the emperor due to his fearlessness in the Liu Xueyu incident, he was not considered anyone's man. But those who were offended in the Liu Xueyu incident were all the emperor's men. Although they had the emperor's protection, they were obviously closer to Prince Qi.

In addition, the emperor wanted to secretly reopen the weapons workshop without discussing it with the emperor emeritus. Could it be that this incident was aimed at the emperor emeritus?

Wan Ning was vaguely uneasy. Although the emperor was selfish and mediocre, the triangle was stable at this stage, and the prince Qi standing on the opposite side might not be the right person. She began to worry about Ziheng, fearing that he was too impatient and was being taken advantage of.

"Master Fu, Master Wang, please come this way."

As the door opened, Fang Xiong's voice came to guide them, and Wan Ning looked up impatiently. But after waiting for a long time, Ziheng still didn't come out, and the door was dark and nothing could be seen. After a while, a tired figure slowly walked forward, and when he walked out of the door, he had his head down tiredly.

This look was very different from what she usually saw. Wan Ning had never thought that Ziheng would be so tired in a place she couldn't see. She felt a little distressed, but quickly adjusted herself and waved at him, but unfortunately she failed to attract his attention.

"Ziheng"

Wan Ning called his name softly, and before he suddenly looked up and his eyes lit up, she put on a sweeter smile and waved at him even more vigorously.

Without hesitation, Ziheng strode towards the pavilion, the tiredness on his body and the disgust in his eyes disappeared without a trace. He couldn't help but pull her wrist through her sleeve, and asked with joy: "Yanyan, why are you here? How long have you been here? Why didn't anyone report it?"

Wan Ning glanced around, and worried that she might be seen by others, so she broke away without making a sound, and replied gently: "It was not long ago, we just got here, and I didn't let them pass the message. Are you tired?"

"Fortunately."

Wan Tao, who was standing by like a newbie on sentry duty, was also very worried about being seen and talked about by others, so she quietly tugged at the corner of Wan Ning's clothes to remind him. Wan Ning came back to her senses, remembered the main task of the day, and said proudly: "I came here today on the order of the Queen Mother. Have you not seen the Queen Mother for a long time? She has something for me to give you?"

"What?" Ziheng had a bad feeling.

"Yes……"

"Let's go in and talk." After saying that, he led her to the door. On the way, he thought of how she looked last night after being poisoned by Chunlu Powder, her bold outfit, and the cautious heartbeat he had when he took off her clothes and took care of her. His face turned red unconsciously, and his feet walked faster.

Wan Ning could hardly keep up with his pace. When he was about to catch up, she said angrily from behind: "Ziheng, I can't keep up with you."

Ziheng stood at the door and turned around, grabbing her wrist and pulling her into his arms. The hem of her skirt spun in the air and she easily entered the room. At the same time, the sound of the door closing was heard behind her. Then she was pressed against the door frame by Ziheng. He slowly lowered his head to approach Wan Ning's cheek, and the ups and downs of his breathing were extremely clear in her ears.

"Ziheng," she called his name softly, wanting to make sure he was still sane.

"Yeah," he replied, and when she felt relieved, he suddenly kissed her passionately, and they ended up in a draw during the passionate kiss.

"Bang——", the wooden box fell to the ground in the passionate chaos, making a dull sound like summer thunder.

"what?"

"The Queen Mother asked me to give you this wooden box. It was sent by Princess Hejing."

Hearing about Princess Hejing, her enthusiasm was instantly discounted and came to an abrupt end. Wan Ning stayed where she was and watched him leave quietly. She picked up the wooden box and turned to light a lamp to confirm whether the box was intact.

Although it was imperceptible, she saw the tension in his body, eyes, and movements.
