The princess returns strongly, and the divorced regent is busy chasing his wife
Chapter 357 Celebration Banquet
The ceremony of the palace banquet was very simple, just like an ordinary family banquet, but the dishes and wine were of the best quality.
Since Ouyang Miaoling is a quiet person and doesn't like noisy occasions, she did not invite outsiders to accompany her.
The only people present were Nangong Mingxuan, the emperor, Yun Jiusi, and Ouyang Li who had just been brought into the palace.
Although it could be considered a family reunion, the addition of an annoying emperor made Nangong Mingxuan feel very uncomfortable.
He lowered his voice and whispered in the emperor's ear: "We are a family reunion, what are you doing here?"
The emperor responded: "I am also Jiusi's father, why can't I participate?"
"Nangong dog... I'm warning you, at this beautiful moment, I don't want to ruin Ling'er's mood, nor do I want to argue with you, so don't make trouble for no reason!"
The emperor warned Nangong Mingxuan in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
Nangong Mingxuan sneered and said, "I know, but I won't argue with you."
The emperor gnashed his teeth in anger at Nangong Mingxuan's words.
"What are you two talking about? It's time to eat," Ouyang Miaoling reminded them. Only then did the two put aside their prejudices against each other and began to concentrate on eating.
"Brother Jiusi is so awesome. He resolved a palace coup without any effort." Ouyang Li praised him generously.
"You are wrong. It's not my credit. It was Uncle Nangong's idea." Yun Jiusi said modestly.
"It was Aunt Ling who guessed that they would use poison. It was Uncle Nangong who came up with the idea. Uncle Nangong's men detected something unusual outside the city in advance. I just had people control the 50,000 troops outside the city. The rest are all Uncle Nangong's credit." Yun Jiusi attributed all the credit to Nangong Mingxuan and Ouyang Miaoling.
"Then I admire you too..." Ouyang Li's eyes were full of admiration.
Ouyang Li licked her face and wanted to say some compliments: "Brother Jiusi, you are really amazing! Not only are you smart and resourceful, but you also know how to be grateful." She blinked and continued: "However, it's not good for you to push all the credit to others like this~"
Yun Jiusi smiled slightly and did not respond to her words. He picked up the wine glass in his hand and stood up.
He said solemnly to Nangong Mingxuan and Ouyang Miaoling: "Uncle Nangong, Aunt Ling, Jiusi thanks you for your great help this time."
He raised his head and drank the wine in the glass, then said: "If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to resolve this crisis so smoothly."
Nangong Mingxuan was about to stand up and drink a glass with him, but was rejected by the emperor. "Sit down, he is the junior and should stand up to toast you."
Yun Jiusi was confused about what the emperor meant, and then he continued, "Jiusi... come here. From today on, your Uncle Nangong is your adoptive father, and your Aunt Ling is your adoptive mother. You must treat them the same way you treat me."
Yun Jiusi looked at the emperor with a blank face, not understanding why he suddenly made such a decision, but he was also somewhat touched.
He looked at Nangong Mingxuan and Aunt Ling. Tears were glistening in their eyes. They were obviously shocked by this sudden news.
Although Yun Jiusi didn't know why the emperor had changed so much, he knew that Nangong Mingxuan and Aunt Ling had supported him along the way and they were worthy of him calling them godfather.
Especially Nangong Mingxuan, whenever he had free time during this period, he not only taught him martial arts, but also imparted many life philosophies, which benefited him a lot.
Aunt Ling was like a mother to him, caring about his daily life and giving him meticulous care.
The help they provided to him went far beyond that of ordinary friends, so he thought they fully deserved this honor.
Thinking of this, Yun Jiusi took a step back without hesitation, then knelt down and kowtowed three times respectfully: "Foster father, foster mother, please accept my greetings."
Nangong Mingxuan was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes. He quickly helped Yun Jiusi up, hugged him tightly, and said in a trembling voice: "Okay...Okay! From today on, we are a family!"
Ouyang Miaoling was also moved to tears. She walked forward, gently stroked Yun Jiusi's hair, and said softly: "Child, we will be a family from now on. We will always be by your side."
Yun Jiusi felt the sincerity of Nangong Mingxuan and Aunt Ling. He nodded vigorously, his vision blurred by tears.
When the emperor saw this scene, he felt sad and his eyes were wet with tears.
"Okay... Mom and Dad adopted Brother Jiusi as their adopted son, so I have an extra brother," Ouyang Li said happily.
"Dad, Mom," Yun Jiusi repeated the title doubtfully. Because they were traveling the same way, he never knew that Nangong Mingxuan and Ouyang Miaoling were a family.
"Godfather...Godmother, it turns out that you are A'li's biological parents?" Yun Jiusi asked.
"Well... this is a long story. Since you have acknowledged us as your adoptive parents, we will tell you our identities and details." Nangong Mingxuan felt that there was no need to hide his identity from his biological son, so he decided to reveal everything.
"I am actually the regent of Northern Qi...your aunt Ling is my regent princess. The two of us have concealed our identities and come here to look for our son who was lost sixteen years ago." When he said this, he glared at the emperor who was sitting beside him. In order to hide his inner panic, the emperor quickly picked up the wine glass on the table and drank it all. He almost choked on the wine because he drank in a hurry.
"Have you found your son?" Yun Jiusi asked from the side.
"I..." He really wanted to tell him that he had found it, but when he met Ouyang Miaoling's eyes, he turned his head and looked at Yun Jiusi guiltily and said, "We didn't find it, but we adopted a son, which made up for the regret that we couldn't find our son."
The emperor finally felt relieved when he heard that Nangong Mingxuan did not reveal Yun Jiusi's identity because he acted on impulse.
"Come...let's have a drink for our future as a family." Nangong Mingxuan suggested. Everyone raised their glasses to celebrate the moment of reunion.
"Godfather...Jiusi still doesn't understand one thing. You said that my stepmother is your regent princess. Why did you and my stepmother seem so unfamiliar when we first met?" Yun Jiusi asked puzzledly.
"Ahem!" Nangong Mingxuan used coughing to cover up his embarrassment. He didn't want to admit in front of Dongfang that he and Ouyang Miaoling had not reconciled yet. Wouldn't that make a fool of himself in front of his love rival?
He pretended to be calm and was about to explain, but he didn't expect Ouyang Miaoling to speak first and help him out.
"That's because your stepfather lost our son. I've always been angry with him, but recently, since we're looking for our son together, I gave him a chance. I'll see how he performs and then decide whether to forgive him."
"Oh... So that's how it is? Your son was lost by his adoptive father. He is so irresponsible."
As soon as Yun Jiusi finished speaking, the two old men at the banquet looked at each other, and tacitly picked up the wine glasses beside them and drank them all.
