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

Nangong Yu glanced at Nangong Su, then said:

"From now on, don't stare at the Third Prince's Palace, and don't stare at their guards. You already know about the existence of the Slasher Hands, and you know how powerful these people are. You stared at them, do you think they didn't notice?"

When Nangong Su heard this, he felt a chill on his back, as if someone was staring at him.

Nangong Yu also thought about it carefully and said:

"From tomorrow on, you will go to court as usual and do what you normally do. Don't be nervous. But don't mention this matter to anyone else. Don't even think about it in your mind. Don't even ask Nangong Xuan."

Maybe it was because Nangong Yu's tone was a little harsh, Nangong Su actually nodded after hearing it, and then snorted. Shouldn't an old man be the one admonishing a kid with these kinds of words?

After a slightly awkward cough, Nangong Su asked for conversation:

"Do you know where your mother is moving to?"

Nangong Yu looked at his father and could only sigh inwardly. Anyone with eyes could see from his father's recent helpless surroundings of his mother that he wanted to keep his mother.

But what were you doing so early?

It’s too late now to show your concern and want to keep people!

Although Nangong Yu is just like every other child in his heart, he wants to have a complete family.

Now that he has Gu Ruoxi, he wants his father and mother to wait a little longer so that he can have the time to enjoy the company of his children in the future.

But he also knew that he couldn't be so selfish. His mother had endured in this mansion for twenty years just for his sake.

Life is short, only a few decades long, and my mother is not an ordinary woman. She has her own ideas, and she should live the life she wants.

His father had been absurd for twenty years, and from now on, he would have to spend the rest of his life atonement for those twenty years.

Heaven is fair.

"No matter where she moves to, you can't disturb her. She should live a free life. This mansion is a cage for her, so you should just live your life well. Don't bother me anymore."

"you……"

Nangong Su was anxious and stood up:

"Aren't you afraid of what people will say about you?"

Nangong Yu also stood up, looked around and said:

"This house surrounds us, and this palace surrounds this house. I don't care what people outside say, but at the moment, no one dares to say it to my face."

"My parents are getting divorced. Is it my fault? Why don't you look for your own reasons? Who should be blamed for this?"

Nangong Su opened his mouth, but nothing came out.

Nangong Yu looked at him and said with a headache:

"You should go to the court properly. If you are afraid of what others will say, you can take a leave from the day my mother moved out of the house. If you want, you can also go to the West Hill Villa to recuperate for a few days. It just so happens that there is not much peace in the capital."

Nangong Su clenched his fists, snorted, and walked away.

He may be the unluckiest person recently.

If the title of Marquis is lost, there will be no more after him.

My son resigned from the position of Crown Prince. Although he was promoted to a higher position, it was no longer the same as being the Crown Prince.

My wife wanted to divorce, and she signed the papers after being forced by my brother-in-law.

Now... I can imagine that the day when Madam moves out of the Marquis' Mansion, the entire Shangjing City will probably point fingers at me.

Nangong Su didn’t know how to face it. Should he really listen to his son and take a rest?

Nangong Su walked out slowly again and came to the study in the outer courtyard. He stared blankly at the portrait that Xie Qingrou had drawn for him. He sat there until it was almost dark.

Lai Wang was walking back and forth outside, he had something on his mind.

As the sky grew darker, Lai Wang did not hear the Marquis asking him to light the lamps.

Lai Wang took the initiative to go in and saw that the Marquis was sitting there motionless, just like when he came in.

Lai Wang carefully lit the lamp and reminded softly:

"My Lord, you promised the young lady that you would go to her place in the evening. It's time for dinner."

Only then did Nangong Su realize that the lights were on.

Nangong Su stood up:

"Let's go."

When Nangong Su said he was leaving, Lai Wang was stunned for a moment, then nodded happily and followed Nangong Su.

Lai Fu stood outside the door, heard the conversation inside, and frowned slightly.

Lai Fu was a child that housekeeper Zhou Yanfu picked up on the road and raised to be a servant.

Lai Wang was a servant bought for Nangong Su by Zhu Xinlan when she was in charge.

Lai Wang naturally knew that Zhu Xinlan was in trouble, and he couldn't help.

Today, when he followed the Marquis into the inner house, he saw the eldest lady. Thinking that he had such a good job because he was bought into the mansion by the ladies, Lai Wang remembered to remind the Marquis.

But Lai Fu knew about this, and after Lai Wang followed the Marquis to the inner house again, he told this to Butler Zhou.

Butler Zhou told him to be more careful, but not to do anything, saying that he would understand later.

Nangong Su brought Lai Wang to his daughter's Jiangxue Pavilion. The original layout inside remained basically unchanged, except that some of the vases were gone.

They were all thrown down by Nangong Jiao.

Nangong Jiao's maid Yu'er knew that the Marquis had arrived, and hurried to inform the young lady.

Nangong Jiao also lit the lamp, and Yue'er went to get food.

She heard at noon that her father was coming, but now everything he said was uncertain to her.

Now that her father had really come, Nangong Jiao didn't even bother to tidy herself up, and ran out of her boudoir to meet Nangong Su in the yard.

Jiangxue Pavilion is a renovated courtyard with three main rooms, an east wing, and a small ear room.

Compared with the courtyards of other young ladies, Nangong Jiao's courtyard is not inferior to the courtyards of some legitimate daughters.

Moreover, the furnishings inside are very exquisite. This is also the room that Zhu Xinlan carefully decorated for her daughter.

Nangong Jiao welcomed her father to the main hall and sat him down. Yu'er hurried over to serve tea, and Nangong Jiao personally took it and handed it to her father:

"Dad, please have some tea."

"Ah."

Nangong Su still took it with a smile, took a sip and put it aside, then said:

"Jiao'er has grown up. She knows how to serve tea to Daddy herself."

This is the feeling that a father wants, to be loved and respected by his children.

Nangong Jiao lowered her head:

"Dad, if my daughter doesn't know better, she won't be able to survive in this backyard."

Nangong Su was stunned for a moment, and suddenly thought about the fact that the head of the family had changed. It might be true that she was not used to it.

Besides, since my mother is no longer the head of the family, the treatment will definitely be different.

Moreover, when Nangong Su looked up at his daughter while sitting like this, he realized that she had really grown up.

Then he thought of what Nangong Yu had said when he scolded the old marquis' wife, saying that no one in Shangjing City was willing to marry into the Marquis Changyong's Mansion.

Nangong Yu’s marriage was arranged by the old marquis.

Nangong Su suddenly thought that what Nangong Yu said seemed to be right, because Nangong Xuan was already eighteen years old and Nangong Jiao was over fourteen years old, but no one was interested in marrying into his family.
