After swallowing my anger and taking the blame, I became the lucky little queen
Chapter 177 You Are Not Good Enough
The father, daughter and their two companions entered the Qinghui Palace.
Not many people came this time. Apart from a few military generals who were on good terms with General Xiao, there were some important officials in high positions.
The emperor sat at the top and first praised General Xiao, then asked about the war and the situation on the front line. Only then did the opening ceremony end.
Nian Susu knew that he was not the protagonist this time, so he stayed there quietly. Once he noticed that Nian Qiaoyue had any evil intentions, he would warn her with his eyes.
However, Qin Fengtian was under house arrest and was unable to attend this time, so Nian Qiaoyue probably won't want to show off again.
Nian Susu has tried her best to make herself invisible, but she always feels that someone is staring at her. When she looks up, the gaze disappears again.
After going back and forth several times, she could no longer bear it. She looked up again at the moment when she lowered her eyes, and as expected, she caught the "peeping Tom".
It turned out to be Xiao Helin, the second son of the Xiao family.
He scratched his head in embarrassment after being discovered, and seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he boldly raised his glass to her.
Xiao Helin had no ill intentions, he just thought she was pretty so he looked at her a few more times, but as soon as she started to "catch" him, things became interesting.
As soon as she started looking for him, he deliberately looked away. When she lowered her head, he stared at her again. The running and chasing made this boring party more interesting.
He was caught unexpectedly, which made him very embarrassed and he could only toast and apologize.
The girl opposite was also a generous person. She responded by drinking it all in one gulp without changing her expression. Apart from his younger sister, he had never seen any girl who could drink a glass of strong liquor without changing her expression.
Xiao Helin was a little curious about her.
He nudged Xiao Yunzheng on the right and asked in a low voice: "Little sister, do you know that girl?"
Xiao Yunzheng looked up and answered without thinking: "You know where I grew up. Which family of young ladies in Beijing do I know? Even if I knew them before, they have changed a lot after so many years."
For example, she was still a young girl six years ago, but now many people praise her for growing up and becoming beautiful. She is still like this even though she has been struggling in the military camp, let alone the delicate flowers raised in a greenhouse.
But she still followed Xiao Helin's gaze.
At first glance, she said, "Good boy, you have good taste."
The second time, she said, "Don't even think about it, you don't deserve it."
Xiao Helin:?
"Why am I not worthy?" Xiao Helin was dissatisfied. "Although I am not as powerful as my father and elder brother, I am still a hero after all."
Xiao Yunzheng shook her head, "No, no. When I said I wasn't worthy of her, I was referring to her appearance."
Xiao Helin:?
"Okay, that's unnecessary for me to ask." He chuckled twice and drank a glass of wine.
Xiao Yunzheng felt uncomfortable every time she didn't tease him, and he had become accustomed to it.
But this time what he said made some sense. The girl was as beautiful as a fairy, while he was plain-looking, so they were indeed not a good match.
Before he could finish his annoyance, Xiao Yunzheng said, "Even if you are from a family background, you are barely a good match. She is the daughter of Prime Minister Nian, the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's family. You are a young man who has just started out. If you like her daughter, you have to ask Prime Minister Nian for his approval."
Xiao Helin was puzzled: "You don't know her, how do you know she is a girl from the Nian family?"
"Here." She raised her chin and pointed at Nian Chengyun who was sitting in the row in front of Nian Susu. "I don't know her, but I know Prime Minister Nian."
Xiao Helin took a look and was surprised. It was indeed true.
Although there were two girls sitting behind Prime Minister Nian, it was obvious who was the eldest and who was the second young lady.
There is no hope now, Xiao Helin sighed.
Xiao Yunzheng patted his shoulder and comforted him, "I told you, you don't deserve it." There was a hint of gloating in her tone.
Xiao Jianting was originally chatting about military affairs with Qin Junyu. When he heard the whispering sounds, he glanced at the two of them. They immediately huddled together like little chickens, staring at their eldest brother in panic.
"What are you talking about?"
Xiao Helin was about to say it was nothing, but Xiao Yunzheng covered his mouth. She couldn't wait to complain: "Brother! Second brother has fallen in love with the girl from the Nian family and has been staring at her!"
Xiao Jianting raised his eyebrows, feeling deeply puzzled. It had been less than three hours since his younger brother returned to Beijing, and he already had a girl he liked?
Xiao Yunzheng winked at him to look, and the three of them all looked at Nian Susu, not noticing that Qin Junyu's expression changed.
Nian Susu was peeling grapes and didn't notice anything.
"What do you think, big brother? Isn't Miss Nian very beautiful?" Xiao Yunzheng was eager to get recognition, especially from her big brother who was so old-fashioned that he could count the number of women he had met on one hand. She really wanted to know how he felt when he saw such a charming woman.
However, Xiao Jianting just nodded calmly, then looked at his brother, "Well, you have good taste, but you are not worthy of me."
Xiao Yunzheng gloated over the misfortune and laughed so hard that he fell forward and backward, "Haha... hero... heroes think alike hahaha..."
Both his brother and sister bullied him, so Xiao Helin had to ask Qin Junyu for comfort, "Brother Yu, they both bullied me!"
Qin Junyu's expression was extremely unnatural. He forced a smile and said, "As a brother, I should give in to my sister."
He always says this.
Xiao Helin had already guessed it and had long thought about how to respond, but Qin Junyu's expression made him unable to speak.
The other two also noticed that something was wrong with him and asked him what was going on, but he just shook his head.
After three rounds of drinks, the emperor mentioned the matter of rewards.
General Xiao originally wanted to refuse, but the emperor insisted on rewarding him, and he gave him a house to serve as his general's residence.
After all, when we left Beijing, our whole family had left. The house had been uninhabited for a long time and was dilapidated and not suitable for living.
The emperor was thoughtful in his move and arranged accommodation for their family. General Xiao could not refuse and accepted the reward to express his gratitude.
As for the two sons of the Xiao family, they followed their father into the war and made great achievements. The emperor granted them permission to lead troops to meet the enemy independently if war breaks out again in the future.
The two brothers were so happy that their mouths were broken. They had the ability to lead the army, but they couldn't have two generals in one family. Too much attention was not a good thing, so they never mentioned it to the emperor and stayed with their father. Now the emperor took the initiative to allow them to lead the army, which was simply the fulfillment of their dreams.
After rewarding the father and his two sons, Xiao Yunzheng also had a share.
The emperor was full of praise for the little girl. He looked at her for a few times and nodded with great satisfaction. "Not bad. Compared with six years ago, you have grown up a lot. You are now heroic and brave, and you still have the demeanor of a general! General Xiao is really blessed to have three brave and fearless children like you!"
Xiao Yunzheng smiled brightly, "Your Majesty's five princes are all outstanding and outstanding. Your Majesty is so lucky."
"This child." The emperor smiled indulgently, "What a sweet mouth!"
He laughed several times and asked, "What about you? Your father and brother have both received their rewards. What do you want?"
