The lady of Chongxi has supernatural powers and is favored by the powerful official

Gu Ruoxi nodded, feeling a little relieved. The banquet at the Third Prince's Palace would be held the day after tomorrow.

In the evening, Nangong Su came again.

Gu Ruoxi thought he was waiting outside, but when she saw the food was being served, he arrived.

Xie Qingrou still kept him to have dinner together, but Gu Ruoxi found that the Marquis' eyes were red, as if he had been crying.

Tsk tsk, a grown man cries when something happens?

Forget it, I don't want to bother with his business. Because Gu Ruoxi felt that this marquis was not very close to her.

No one spoke during the meal, which made Gu Ruoxi endure it again and again. Usually, when it was just her and Nangong Yu eating in Chaohui Courtyard, she would talk while eating.

Of course, we are talking about whether a certain dish is delicious or how good a certain ingredient is.

But with the Marquis present, she said nothing and did not comment on which dish was delicious.

It was just that when she found a dish delicious, she glanced at Nangong Yu several times. Then Nangong Yu immediately understood and picked some for her and put it in her bowl.

She smiled again.

Nangong Su ate while looking at Xie Qingrou. Xie Qingrou's eating manner was simply very beautiful.

After the meal, the maids served tea to help digestion, and then Nangong Su said:

"Give it a few more days. I'll sign it after a few more days. It has to be after the Three Princes' Palace, right?"

Nangong Su said with some sadness:

"I know I was wrong, and I can't keep you here. But where will you live after you move out? I have a yard not far from the South City Villa, how about..."

"No, the old marquis told me about that place, but I didn't want it. Don't worry, since I have made the decision to take this step, I will definitely find a place to stay."

Xie Qingrou replied calmly, and then said:

"A few more days is fine. I will take care of the household affairs with Xi'er during these few days. Nanny Yang will stay to help her manage the household in the future."

The Marquis glanced at Gu Ruoxi. It was okay to have Nanny Yang, but if he left the household to this concubine alone, the Marquis didn't believe she could manage the household well.

Turning his head, he looked at Nangong Yu again:

"Last time we talked about that matter, is there any news from the Third Prince's Palace?"

Nangong Yu shook his head and said:

"Don't worry about this for now. I have someone here to investigate. Also, you should ask Nangong Xuan again. He wanted me to die so much. Now that he knows I'm still alive and not disabled, he must be very sad."

Nangong Su opened his mouth, but no words came out.

He had no reason to let Nangong Yu trust another brother, especially after Nangong Xuan shouted those words in public, Nangong Su believed that they already knew it.

He couldn't believe that he only had these two sons, but they were killing each other?

If you think about it more carefully, this is all caused by yourself!

If I hadn't favored Nangong Xuan, if I hadn't given Nangong Xuan the illusion that he could become the crown prince, this wouldn't have happened.

After Nangong Yu's wedding, Nangong Su felt that he had a new understanding of the world, this family, and himself, and he discovered that he was still not mature enough.

I really didn't listen to the old marquis's teachings back then. I always felt that my father wanted to rely too much on the Xie family, so he asked me not to abandon Xie.

Now it seems that my father was right.

But, it was too late when I realized this!

Looking at the son sitting next to him, fortunately, Xie left this son to him.

After thinking deeply these days, I realized that as long as this son is around, the Nangong family will not fall.

So, I must not take the wrong path again in the future.

Since Xie couldn't keep her own son, she must keep him well.

Thinking of this, Nangong Su looked at Gu Ruoxi again. Alas, although he looked down on this concubine's daughter from the Ningyuan Marquis' family, since his son liked her, he should still take some responsibility in the future.

On the contrary, Gu Ruoxi, who was stared at twice, felt confused.

Nangong Yu came to the court the next day.

Moreover, he walked into the court, causing most people in the court to look at him several times.

There was hatred, regret and joy in the look she gave Nangong Yu.

Nangong Yu accepted all the looks generously. After all, he earned several million taels of silver yesterday, so even if he gave half to the emperor, he would keep the other half for himself.

The emperor was happy and he himself was satisfied.

He liked to see these old ministers, who wanted to kill him and control the emperor, but could not kill him or control the emperor.

This is what is happening now. They thought they were in control, that they would be disabled, that they would die. But now they are walking through it alive.

Hahaha……

The proud Nangong Yu strode out of the court with his head held high:

"Your Majesty, long live the emperor!"

As soon as he came in, he bowed deeply and raised a box in his hand directly above his head:

"Your Majesty, I was cured of my minor illness yesterday. From now on, I can stand up. I think it is because I have been with Your Majesty for a long time and have been blessed. The medicine and acupuncture of Dr. Yang cured my poison. From now on, I can serve Your Majesty with all my heart until my death."

The slogans must be shouted loudly.

Such a display of loyalty was so great that some old officials trembled in their hearts.

Behind this loyalty, isn't it that they want to climb up by stepping on themselves?

They all gave Nangong Yu a glare.

The emperor also looked with interest at Nangong Yu who was talking there. This was completely different from his usual self. He used to be a modest young man who was calm and composed even when debating with the officials in the court.

It's nothing like the ones now, who are like old-fashioned ministers who flatter and fawn on their superiors.

Nangong Yu raised his head and looked at the emperor with a smile and said loudly:

"It is a joy that my subject has recovered, but I have another piece of good news to congratulate His Majesty."

The emperor also cooperated:

"Oh? Where does joy come from?"

"This is the two million taels of silver that I earned with my life. I'm afraid the emperor has heard about it. Yesterday, almost everyone in the capital was betting on whether I would live or die."

"So, I have also heard that I cannot die. I have not yet repaid the emperor's kindness, nor have I repaid my parents' kindness in raising me. I have no one to pass on my legacy. No matter from which aspect, I cannot die."

"So, yesterday I asked someone to use the silver awarded to me by the emperor to buy my life. I didn't expect that, thanks to the emperor's help, I was the only one who bought my life. Your Majesty, the money here was given by people who wanted me dead. I feel good when I spend this money."

"I feel uneasy about spending so much money by myself. Winter is coming, and I am afraid that some poor people will freeze to death on the streets. The Ministry of Revenue needs money for charity. So, I am going to give these two million taels to the emperor for his use. To be honest, I have kept some to set up porridge stalls at the four city gates this winter."

The emperor's mouth was grinning from ear to ear. He knew Nangong Yu would not let him down.

"Eunuch Wang, present these silver coins that are used to kill Nangong Yu. If I don't want him to die, he can't die!"
