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

"Onions, eat onions..."

Although Ziheng was holding the memorial in his hand, he paced back and forth in a state of annoyance. He had no idea what Wan Ning meant by that. Why would she be angry about eating onions?

Fang Xiong happened to come in to deliver something at this time. Seeing the emperor's uneasy look, he thought he had fallen in love with some new sport. Although he didn't understand, he didn't ask too much. He stood aside with the basket in his hand, tiptoeing, for fear of disturbing the emperor.

Ziheng, who was getting more and more confused, stopped in front of Fang Xiong, folded his hands in front of him, and seemed to be hesitant to speak. Fang Xiong looked at him in embarrassment, touched his head in confusion, and asked in confusion: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? You have been so restless since you came back from outside the palace. Is there anything I need you to do?"

"Fang Xiong," Ziheng thought for a while and sat down at the desk again, hesitating and decided to ask Fang Xiong to help him think about it, "Does your sentence 'I eat onions' have any special meaning?"

Fang Xiong was a straightforward person who followed the emperor all day long, and he had not yet "opened his mind". He thought that something serious had happened to the emperor, but he did not expect that the question was so simple and trivial, and he was relieved on the spot. He answered casually without taking it seriously: "So that's all, do you want to eat onions?"

"Do you have any good ideas? Tell me now." Seeing him like this, Ziheng thought he had a good idea.

He was seen speaking his opinion slowly and seriously: "Those who eat onions naturally mean that this person can eat onions, likes to eat onions, and wants to eat onions. Your Majesty, who loves to eat onions so much?"

If one dares to speak, the other will listen. He slowly leaned back on the back of his chair and recalled what happened outside the palace today, muttering silently: "Could it be that she loves eating onions, but she got angry because I took all the onions out of her bowl?"

"Your Majesty, who is it?" Fang Xiong asked curiously.

"A friend." Ziheng couldn't say Wan Ning directly, so he used "a friend" instead. He thought he could hide it, but it was just because he was confused by the situation.

"Friend?" Fang Xiong touched his nose, and suddenly an idea came to his mind and he gave the emperor an idea: "This is easy. Since your friend loves eating onions so much, why don't you just give her more and let her eat enough at once. I guarantee that the princess..."

Seeing the emperor looking at him, Fang Xiong quickly changed his words: "I guarantee that your friend will be happy and will definitely not be angry."

The emperor seemed to be thinking about something, and urged Fang Xiong to leave first. While Fang Xiong was giving Ziheng bad advice, the same "fireside chat" was also going on in Xiangwan Pavilion.

Because the whole day's schedule was very urgent, Wan Ning returned to Xiang Wan Xuan in the evening and hurriedly told Zhu Ying to pack up the quilt and return it to its original owner tomorrow, and then returned to bed with some resentment. However, she basically didn't eat much at night, and because of her depressed mood, she couldn't fall asleep for a long time.

As I tossed and turned in bed, the wind outside was howling and I felt very cold, so I wrapped myself tightly in the quilt, thinking that I could hold out for a while. But the more I thought about it, the more hungry I felt. I gradually started to feel dizzy, and I started to worry that I would not be able to hold out for a while. In the end, I decided to wrap myself in the blanket and run to the kitchen to find something to eat.

"If I had known I wouldn't have starved myself at the wonton stall today!" After a satisfying meal, the world became wider, and the body and mind became relaxed, naturally forgetting the temporary boredom, and walked briskly and contentedly back to the direction of his bedroom. But on the way back, he vaguely noticed some candlelight flickering in the side hall, and was immediately shocked: "Which good sister in Xiangwanxuan is missing her family and dare not speak out, but can only look at them from afar in the night? The Chinese New Year will come in a few months, and it's time to give them a holiday to go back and see their families. I'm really not a good boss."

Worried about the sisters in the palace, she changed her route and went to the side hall to see what was going on. Zhu Ying was sitting quietly in front of an empty table under the candlelight, stroking the quilts that she had folded very neatly, thinking about something. She didn't even notice Wan Ning sneaking in.

"What are you thinking about? Why are you so engrossed?" Wan Ning's unexpected voice scared her so much that she staggered and almost knocked over the candlestick.

"Princess? Why are you here at this time? It's so cold, be careful not to catch a cold." He said thoughtfully and helped her straighten the blanket that had been blown away by the wind.

"I'm fine. What happened to you? I miss home. I'll give you a long vacation at the end of the year. Can you go back and see me? Are you okay?"

"No, I was just wondering why these quilts are so valuable. They are just ordinary items. When I was working in Prince Qi's mansion, I saw many valuable items, but Prince Qi kept most of them in the closet. Ordinary people don't have those items, and they won't affect their daily lives, but these quilts are absolutely indispensable."

Wan Ning sat on the chair beside her and listened to Zhu Ying's confession quietly. She had been upset for the past few days because of her mistake and caused such trouble to the princess. In her eyes, these were just some ordinary and cheap items, just a few quilts. How could they cause such a thing? She pulled a corner of the quilt and said with guilt: "Quilts - ordinary things for ordinary people to keep warm, I didn't expect such an expensive thing to cause such a thing. Princess, I was wrong this time!"

Wan Ning stood up and looked at the quilts carefully, pointing to the gorgeous quilt covers and said, "Look here, the expensive one is this. The fabric is rare and the embroidery on it is even rarer, so the price is naturally very rare. But these things can't make the quilt warmer, the warmth still depends on the cotton wool inside."

Zhu Ying felt that this incident was caused by her, and she couldn't help feeling a little guilty. Hearing the princess say this, she couldn't take her eyes off the quilt, and said sincerely: "Princess, this matter..."

"It's not your fault. Someone has been targeting Xiang Wanxuan. Besides, the matter has been resolved and the mastermind has been found. Zhu Ying, you have always handled Xiang Wanxuan's affairs in an orderly manner, and you have also taken good care of the sisters. Xiang Wanxuan can't do without you. This time, I was well-intentioned, so I gave others an opportunity to take advantage of it. Just be more careful in the future."

Zhu Ying lowered her head and listened to Wan Ning's advice quietly without saying a word. Wan Ning held her hand and continued to comfort her: "No, I should say that I have never been angry about this matter, so you must not feel sorry or guilty. To be honest, this incident is not without any lessons, there is only one thing - if there is anything in the future, you must tell me in time."

Zhu Ying nodded affirmatively, raised her red eyes to hold back tears, and maintained her usual decent smile on her face. Wan Ning paused for a moment, thought about it and added: "Xiang Wanxuan has been targeted, we should be more careful in the future. I am sorry that you have to live with me so carefully because of me. If one day you are tired and want to leave here and go home, please tell me, I will do my best to help. I hope you can live happily too!"

"Princess." Zhu Ying called out "Princess" and then could say nothing more, letting the tears slide down from her eyes.

"Okay, okay, everything will be solved, it's just a matter of time," Wan Ning clumsily took out a handkerchief to wipe Zhu Ying's tears, and happened to reveal half a steamed bun she brought from the kitchen. Zhu Ying then realized that the princess should not be here at this time, so she stared at the bun with her big eyes blinking and asked:

"Princess, are you hungry? There's food prepared for you in the kitchen. I'll get it right away." After saying that, she stood up and was about to leave, but Wan Ning quickly held her back.

"I just came back from the kitchen. I've already eaten." Wan Ning touched her ear embarrassedly.

"When the princess came back, she brought us some bread. Why are you still hungry?"
