The princess returns strongly, and the divorced regent is busy chasing his wife

The woman didn't even look at the gift in the man's hand and directly refused:

"Please take it back, Your Highness. I have already said that it was not my intention to save you. It was our Emperor's intention. I hope the Regent will not thank the wrong benefactor."

"I will prepare a generous gift to express my gratitude to the Emperor. This is just a small token of my appreciation. I hope the Doctor will not refuse."

After saying that, he winked at Leng Yu who was standing beside him, asking Leng Yu to hand the gift to the woman.

Leng Yu stepped forward to take the gift, bowed and presented it with both hands.

"If the gift is too expensive, I will refuse it."

"It's not an expensive gift, just a worthless little thing. Please don't refuse it, doctor."

The woman couldn't refuse, so she reached out and took the small gift that Leng Yu handed over.

Then she carefully opened the brocade box in her hand, and saw an exquisitely carved jade pendant inside. It was obviously worth a lot of money, but the man said it was just a worthless trinket.

But why could it be a jade pendant? The woman wondered in her heart, don’t men know the meaning of giving a woman a jade pendant?

The woman was thinking about how to return the jade pendant without being rude.

Nangong Mingxuan came over and snatched the gift from the woman's hand.

With a cold air emanating from her body, she walked up to Jun Tianshuo and threw the brocade box and the jade pendant at the man.

He suppressed his anger and said, "Such a valuable gift, please keep it well, my wife cannot afford it."

"Nangong Mingxuan, please stop meddling in other people's business. This gift is from me to the divine doctor. You have no right to refuse it on his behalf."

"The miracle doctor you mentioned is my princess. Everyone in Northern Qi knows this."

"What do you intend to do by giving this personal item to my princess in front of me?"

"Do you think this king is dead?"

There was a murderous look in the man's eyes.

Jun Tianshuo's eyes were also bloodshot, and he was glaring at the man in front of him with anger.

Seeing that the situation had become tense, Gu Ying and Leng Yu hurried forward to persuade their respective masters.

"Regent Lengyue, I appreciate your kindness, but the gift is too valuable, please take it back," Ouyang Miaoling also refused.

"Nangong Mingxuan and I haven't divorced yet. On the surface, I am still the regent princess. Your Highness, please take back your inappropriate thoughts."

"Even if Nangong Mingxuan and I divorce, I don't want to have anything to do with Your Highness. I hope Your Highness will respect himself."

"I will not leave you"

Nangong Mingxuan said this word by word.

The woman gave the man a strange look, and her heart was filled with complicated feelings.

"I will not give up. I will wait for you to reconcile with Nangong Mingxuan."

"I have confidence that one day I will be able to move you."

"You..I advise you not to be so stubborn and cause unnecessary trouble."

The woman said this with disdain and was about to turn around and leave.

Nangong Mingxuan quickly stepped forward, took the woman's hand and was about to leave together.

The woman was about to struggle to break free from the man's hand, but Nangong Mingxuan gave her a look, suggesting that this would make Jun Tianshuo give up and put away his inappropriate thoughts.

Ouyang Miaoling had no choice but to stop struggling and let the man pull her out.

As soon as the two of them left and walked to the door of the inn, they saw the eunuch who was delivering the imperial edict from the palace rushing in in a panic.

"Your Majesty, Princess, and the Queen Mother invite you to come into the palace."

Ouyang Miaoling was stunned for a moment, shook off the hand held by the man, and said lightly: "Why did the Queen Mother summon me?"

"I have nothing to do with the palace, and she has never seen me. Why does she want to see me?" Then she looked at the man next to her with a questioning look.

“You’ll know once you get there.”

“But I don’t want to go.”

"If you don't want to go, don't go"

"Can I not go? Doesn't that mean I don't obey your order, or I don't obey your order?"

"You can be willful, I'll take care of everything"

Ouyang Miaoling looked at the people around her with suspicion.

What does the man mean? Are you looking for trouble again?

Knowing that I have no feelings towards him, only hatred, he still does these meaningless things. I wonder what on earth he is trying to achieve?

Forget it. I don’t want to owe him a favor. It’s just a meeting with the Queen Mother. What’s the big deal? Just go.

"Well, I don't want to embarrass you. You just need to see the Queen Mother. I'll go."

After that, he turned to the eunuch who was delivering the imperial edict and said, "Please lead the way, eunuch."

Then he got into the carriage waiting at the door.

Nangong Mingxuan hurriedly followed. He was afraid that if the woman faced the Queen Mother alone, the Queen Mother would cause trouble for her, so he must accompany her.

The carriage drove along the wide street and soon arrived at the palace gate. The two men got off the carriage and walked into Ankang Palace where the Queen Mother lived.

"The emperor's younger brother greets the emperor's sister-in-law, and I greet the empress dowager." The two of them bowed and paid their respects to the empress dowager respectively.

"Uncle, please don't be polite. Come and sit next to me so that I can see you."

As he said this, he enthusiastically took Ouyang Miaoling's hand and pulled her towards him.

"I thank the Queen Mother for her kindness. I dare not overstep the boundaries. I will just sit where I am supposed to be."

After saying that, he pushed away the Queen Mother's hand that was holding his.

The empress dowager was not angry when she saw that she failed. She looked at Nangong Mingxuan who was standing beside her with a smile on her face.

"Uncle, you are here, and my sister-in-law is too reserved. Why don't you go and do your own thing? I have something to say to my sister-in-law."

Nangong Mingxuan looked at the woman, who gave him a reassuring look and the man nodded.

Then he clasped his hands together and saluted: "I'm leaving, my brother."

"Just stay with the Queen Mother, I will come pick you up later."

"it is good"

The woman nodded in agreement.

The man then left Ankang Palace.

Only the Queen Mother and Ouyang Miaoling were left in the palace.

"Sister-in-law, please sit down. Don't be so reserved. I used to be close friends with Le Yao. You are Le Yao's daughter, so I should take care of you."

When Ouyang Miaoling heard the Queen Mother mention her mother, she immediately became interested.

"Does the Queen Mother know about my mother's past? Why did my mother disappear?"

"I am not very clear about what happened back then, so it is better not to mention it."

Seeing that Ouyang Miaoling's interest had been aroused, the Queen Mother pretended to be embarrassed, not wanting to bring up the past and arouse Ouyang Miaoling's curiosity.

"Empress Dowager, my father does not want to talk about my mother. I wonder if Your Majesty could tell me. I will be very grateful."

Then he stood up and saluted.

"Alright, get up, get up, we are all family, don't bow all the time."

"Then will the Queen Mother tell me what happened back then?"

"Well... never mind. Since you want to know, I'll just talk to you."

"Thank you, Queen Mother. I am grateful to you."

The Queen Mother calmed herself down and thought for a while, as if she was trying to recall where to start what happened in the past.

After a long while, the Queen Mother slowly spoke: "I have known Le Yao since childhood. Le Yao is the daughter of General Wang Yu."

"She was smart since she was little, and she grew up to be a very graceful lady. She is one of the most beautiful ladies among the noble families."

"When Le Yao passed the ceremony of coming of age, the emperor arranged for her to be married to the current Duke of Lu."

"However, the Emperor, who was still the Crown Prince at the time, also developed a crush on Le Yao. Due to their status at the time and the fact that it was an arranged marriage by the Emperor, His Royal Highness had no choice but to give up,"

"Later, the prince ascended the throne and I was chosen as the queen and sent to the palace to marry the emperor."
