Quick wear: cannon fodder is a bit strong
Chapter 76 The Prime Minister's Early Death
In the end, Nan Xi found a vintage mirror and a set of colored glass (threaded glass) cups from her collection of the end of the world. She packed them in two boxes and had them sent to the East Palace.
Prince Xuanyuan Yao happened to be in Zhou Xinlan's bedroom.
The couple was discussing today's flower viewing banquet when they received a gift from Nan Xi.
Zhou Xinlan was a little curious, so she opened one of the boxes immediately. She saw a flash of light inside, and it turned out to be a silver mirror the size of a man's palm.
The back of the mirror is decorated with a very beautiful phoenix pattern, inlaid with various red, green and blue gems (actually they are all ordinary handicrafts of later generations), which looks extremely beautiful and luxurious.
The mirror can clearly reflect a person's every detail, so clearly that it makes people feel uneasy.
In another box were glass cups and saucers made of spiral glass, something neither of them had ever seen before in Dayue. The material was incredibly transparent and beautiful, like ice sculptures. Zhou Xinyuan loved them so much that he couldn't let them go.
"Xier is thoughtful." The prince smiled slightly.
"Why did Xier return such a valuable gift?" Zhou Xinyuan was a little surprised. "I feel a little embarrassed."
"Keep it." The prince helped Zhou Xinyuan relax his shoulders. "The General's Mansion has helped us a lot. This isn't a very important item. It's just a little thing between you two. If you give it back, it will make our relationship look distant."
He had heard that Zhou Xinyuan had given away her favorite ruby headpiece today, and he felt very sorry about it.
If he hadn't been a burden, Zhou Xinyuan would have always been the envy and admiration of others, given his status as Grand Tutor Zhou. So how could he have been reduced to using his dowry to curry favor with others?
The Crown Princess also told him that Nan Xi refused to enter the Eastern Palace. After all, it was impossible to hide such a thing from the Crown Prince. This result was within Xuanyuan Yao's expectations, and he was not a lustful person.
In Xuanyuan Yao's heart, the love between men and women cannot be compared with the country and the people.
From this point of view, Xuanyuan Yao is indeed a qualified candidate for emperor.
That night, the prince rested in Zhou Xinyuan's bedroom.
After finishing the work, Zhou Xinyuan got up while Xuanyuan Yao was sleeping soundly.
She was a decisive person. To prevent any further complications, she took the fertility pill without hesitation.
The next day, Nan Xi slept until noon.
After getting up, I played Go with General Nan for a while, and then we had a sumptuous lunch together.
For lunch today, the chef prepared honey-roasted lamb chops, diced seafood with scallions, crispy chicken rolls, beef patties, a large bowl of carrot and duck soup, and four vegetarian dishes.
The meals at the general's mansion continued the style of a military general's home, with large plates and bowls, and the portions were surprisingly large. The grandfather and grandson ate to their heart's content.
General Nan was particularly pleased to see that his granddaughter's complexion had improved visibly after she returned home from Heli. She had gradually become more lively and playful, and even every meal she ate tasted more delicious than when she was at home.
Sometimes I secretly regret that I should have let my granddaughter and that bastard divorce earlier.
I feel so angry when I think of that ungrateful Zhao Wenxuan. I heard that he dared to stop Xier's carriage in the street yesterday and said some nonsense. I really want to go and beat this ungrateful guy to death myself.
Unfortunately, Xier didn't let him interfere, saying that she had her own ideas.
He had no choice but to swallow his anger, but from then on he would ask Liu Rugu about the actions of the ungrateful guy whenever he had nothing to do, making sure he didn't cause any more trouble.
After lunch, the butler Nan Hu came to report that the butler of the Taifu family and two old maids, with a handsome young man, had come to deliver someone to Miss Nan Xi.
Send someone?
Nan Xi and General Nan looked at each other, bewildered as to who they were sending. They couldn't guess what the Grand Tutor's Mansion was up to.
I happened to be full, so I decided to go and take a look together.
As soon as I arrived at the front hall, I saw four people standing there. It was indeed a middle-aged man who looked like a butler, two maids, and a handsome young man.
What's strange is that there are four large boxes behind the boy.
The four of them saluted when they saw Nan Xi and General Nan coming in.
"Zhou Sui meets General Nan!"
"This servant (slave) greets Miss Nan!"
The boy's voice was clear and pleasant, with a hint of bass in his baby voice. Nan Xi felt like her ears were pregnant.
The man who looked like a butler stepped forward and introduced himself.
"I apologize for my abrupt arrival. General Nan and Miss Nan, please forgive me."
"I am Zhou Xing, the steward of Grand Tutor Zhou's residence. This is Zhou Sui, the seventh son of our family."
"The Crown Princess ordered us to send the Seventh Young Master here. She said there is a letter here. You will know the answer when you see it..."
And this, he said, handing over another piece of paper.
Before Nan Xi could take a closer look, Zhou Xing bowed.
"General Nan, Miss Nan. The people have been sent, and we will take our leave now. If you are not satisfied or have any news, please send someone to the mansion to let us know."
Having said that, he actually left Zhou Sui and the four boxes behind, took the two maids and left without looking back, just like that...left...
Seen from behind, it was moving extremely fast, as if there was a dog chasing it.
Nan Xi and General Nan looked at each other in astonishment.
After a long time, Nan Xi opened the first letter, glanced through it quickly, and suddenly felt a bit shocked.
The Crown Princess's letter indicated that she had gone back this morning to ask her seventh brother's opinion, and he had expressed his willingness to marry into the Nan family. A single moment of love was worth a thousand gold, so she had hurried to send him over.
The letter also said that her half-brother had no real abilities, only a pretty face and a healthy body. She was given to her for her to see. If she could use it, she could make do with it. If not, she could throw it away. There was no need to give her face.
He introduced Zhou Sui's basic situation again, saying that Taifu Zhou didn't like him at home anyway, and if Nan Xi kept him, this younger brother would belong to the Nan family in the future, and he could even change his surname to Nan.
Oh my god, Nan Xi suddenly wondered if the Crown Princess was also a person who traveled from the future.
And "use it if you can" - as an older sister, what kind of vicious words are you saying?
Even the kitten Jiujiujiu exclaimed in shock, "Holy crap!"
Nan Xi looked at the letter, then looked at Zhou Sui who lowered his head, and was at a loss for words.
General Nan took the letter with one hand: "Let me see..." After reading it, his eyes widened. He looked at the letter and Zhou Sui with the same expression as Nan Xi, and then burst into laughter for a long time.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect that old fox Zhou Zeliang could actually raise such an interesting daughter."
"Not bad, not bad. This tone suits my old man's temperament very well."
When Zhou Sui heard the laughter, his ears turned red and his head drooped even lower.
