The general's eldest daughter has a spatial ability

Chapter 357 Outshining All Others

"That's right! As our master says, even when beating a dog, you have to consider its owner, let alone the fact that he humiliated our leader! Although our leader is strict with us, we all know it's for our own good. What he teaches us can be life-saving in a critical moment. So in our hearts, we can make our leader angry, but others can't!"

Hearing what Nineteen said, An Yi was deeply moved: "Good lad, from now on, if I have a bite of meat to eat, you'll definitely have a bite of soup to drink. If anyone bullies you and you can't beat them, tell me, and I'll beat them up for you."

Nineteen smiled and nodded: "Thank you, boss. Boss, let's go find Aunt Chun Chan. You need to change your clothes and redo your hair. Your height means these clothes probably need to be altered."

Qingyang nodded: An Yi's female attire is indeed stunning, but his height is the only drawback. An Yi's height is among the best of men, let alone women who are that tall.

An nodded to Nineteen and said, "You go and keep an eye on that bastard and see who he's hiring and if he's up to anything. Qingyang and I will go find Aunt Chunchan."

"Boss, our selection will be held at that threshing ground we met last time. I'll go check it out first, just in case that scoundrel tries anything funny. But I can guarantee that with your looks, you'll absolutely outshine everyone else." Nineteen showered An Yi with compliments.

An Yi suddenly said, "I feel like you're not praising me, but insulting me. I'm a grown man, and you say I outshine everyone? I'm just dressed up as a woman, not a real woman. Outshine what?!"

Qingyang smiled at Shijiu: "You praised me well, but don't praise me like that next time."

"Alright, I'll go see those scoundrels right away." Nineteen said and quickly left.

Qingyang said to An Yi, "Let's hurry over to the Empress's place too."

An Yi nodded and had just stepped out the door when he suddenly ran back, grabbed the two steamed buns on the table, and stuffed them into his pocket!

Qingyang: Can we still eat this steamed bun with the second layer of filling?

When Qingyang and An Yi arrived at the Empress's courtyard and announced their arrival, Chun Chan led them inside. They saw Nangong Li and the Empress sitting in the hall, enjoying tea.

When the Empress saw An Yi enter, she smiled and said, "An Yi, you change your costume so many times a day! You've finished playing the young lady, and now you're starting to play the maid?"

An Yi chuckled and said, "Your Majesty, we were forced into this situation. It's all those bastards' fault for being so arrogant. That's why I thought of giving them a good slap in the face. After all, even when beating a dog, you have to consider its owner. Our comforting them represents the face of the Pingnan Prince's Mansion. A scholar can be killed but not humiliated."

"Come on, Nineteen told me everything. But what can I do when his family is rich? Don't you guys always say, 'A fool wouldn't take advantage of a bargain'?"

Besides, this opportunity has come to us; why not take it? My mother and I will just treat it as a show, have some fun. This is a one-time thing; we won't do it again.

"Don't worry, Master, I understand. I just want to prove myself." An nodded in assurance.

Just then, Chun Chan brought over a set of maid's clothes: "Hurry, come with me. This dress has just been altered, try it on to see if it fits. After you change, I'll do your hair!"

An nodded slightly: "Thank you for your trouble, Auntie."

Chun Chan smiled and said, "Who told Her Majesty to want to see some fun too!"

An Yi took the dress that Chun Chan had altered and went into the room. Chun Chan waited at the door. After a while, An Yi came out after changing into the dress.

Looking at An Yi, who had changed into a dress, Qingyang sighed inwardly. Indeed, clothes make the man, and the dress An Yi wore just now was comparable to that of a lady from a noble family.

She was now dressed in a maid's dress, and her overall demeanor had changed, becoming much more ordinary. However, her face remained as unforgettable as before.

An Yi approached Qing Yang and spun around: "How was it? Not bad, right?"

Nangong Li's lips twitched. He looked at Qingyang, who was staring at An Yi's face. Nangong Li shook his head. It seemed he should start thinking about marriage for these guys.

Qingyang nodded: "Beautiful!"

An Yi was somewhat surprised to hear Qingyang's words and reached out to touch Qingyang's forehead: "Are you alright? You seem fine, but the things you're saying... something seems off."

Qingyang: "What's wrong with it?"

An Yi: "Your lips are usually like they've been smeared with arsenic, but today you've suddenly switched to honey?"

Qingyang: "If you're not used to applying honey occasionally, I can try applying arsenic next time."

An nodded: "Yes, it's normal now."

After saying that, he turned and went into the room, where Chun Chan began to comb his hair!

Hearing An Yi and Qing Yang bickering, Mu Yuyan smiled and looked at Nangong Li: "Are they like this all the time?"

Nangong Li raised his hand to his forehead: "Those two are always bickering, having a little fight every three days. An Yi always comes out on the losing end, but he just gets stronger with each battle!"

"Then your palace must be very lively, right? Sigh, unlike the palace which is so lifeless." Mu Yuyan sighed.

Nangong Li looked at Mu Yuyan's lower abdomen and said with a smile, "You won't be bored until your younger brother or sister is born. When I was a child, the palace was a chaotic place."

Mu Yuyan rolled her eyes at Nangong Li: "How dare you say that? Of all the children in the palace, you're the most mischievous. You either cut the tutor's beard in the Imperial Study or drew turtles on his face while he was asleep, which made the tutor so angry that he went to the Imperial Study every day to complain to your father, the Emperor."

Nangong Li felt a little embarrassed when he thought about his childhood. So, that wasn't really him, but Nangong Li was indeed very naughty when he was young.

Seeing that Nangong Li seemed to be reminiscing about the past, Mu Yuyan suddenly asked, "You brat, do you prefer a younger brother or a younger sister?"

Nangong Li said, "Mother, aren't you asking the wrong person? Shouldn't you be asking Father the same question? Should you be asking Father whether he prefers a prince or a princess?"

Mu Yuyan smiled and said, "Your father's wishes are not important. I just want to hear your thoughts!"

Nangong Li smiled and said, "Is Mother testing me? Before Mother was pregnant, I thought I would reluctantly accept the throne and protect this country for Father."

But if Mother were to give birth to a prince, I would be willing to relinquish this throne to my younger brother. To be honest, I don't really like being emperor. Look at Father, he gets up earlier than the rooster and goes to bed later than the dog. He married the woman he loved, but he couldn't promise her a lifetime of monogamy. Father always feels guilty towards Mother.

"Your son doesn't want Yun'er to suffer, and he prefers a free and easy life. However, Mother, please don't feel pressured. Just let nature take its course. Whether it's a prince or a princess, Father won't mind. What you need to do now is to be happy and take good care of yourself during your pregnancy. Don't worry Father and us."

As soon as Nangong Li finished speaking, a familiar figure appeared at the door: "You brat, you've finally said something sensible!"
