Chapter 718 Marriage (1)
Nangong Yue lowered her shoulders in front of Fengluan Palace, and a familiar little maid greeted her with a smile, and saluted her: "This servant has seen the county master of Yaoguang." Then he quietly mentioned, "The emperor and the queen. The empress is waiting for the princess inside."
Nangong Yue nodded slightly, and Baihui next to him skillfully handed him a bulging purse.
The little maid closed her eyes with a smile, and entered the main hall facing Nangong Yue.
The main hall of Fengluan Palace is as noble as ever, with a few half-human-high white jade vases placed in the corners, with a few delicate camellias inserted in them, which are faintly fragrant and calm.
The emperor sat on the right side of the hall, and the queen sat on his right side. Nangong Yue bowed respectfully, and the emperor smiled and said, "Yue girl, don't bow, sit down and talk."
Nangong Yue thanked him, got up and sat down.
The queen cocked the corners of her mouth and said with a slight smile, "Girl Yue, if I remember correctly, you are approaching the age of the golden hairpin, right?"
Nangong Yue smiled and replied, "Yue'er's birthday will be on the sixth day of next month."
"It's almost a big girl." The queen smiled again and asked, "You are the only daughter under your parents' knees, have you promised someone else?"
Nangong Yue's heart beat a little faster, she stabilized her mind, and smiled shyly: "Go back to the empress, my mother said, Yue'er is still young, no hurry," After a pause, she added with an embarrassed expression, "Yue'er also wants to stay with her parents for a few more years."
That is not there yet. The emperor and the queen exchanged glances, both of which were satisfied.
The queen showed a loving smile and asked, "Girl Yue, what do you think of Xiao Yi, the prince of Zhennan?"
When things came to an end, Nangong Yue, who was a little nervous in her heart, became relaxed and calm when she heard the Queen's question. Although she didn't know how Xiao Yi made the emperor consider their marriage, he really did it! Since he worked so hard for their future, she couldn't lose to him!
"Prince Xiao..." Nangong Yue said with a smile on her face, "Last time at the Fang Banquet, Shizi Xiao helped me to fool the envoys of Xi Rong! See, he is very good, and he won't look down on my brother like others."
The queen asked again with a smile: "That's why you don't hate it?"
"I don't hate it." Nangong Yue blinked, as if she was a little puzzled why the Queen asked that.
Her innocent appearance as a little girl made the queen laugh involuntarily. Nangong Yue always behaved like a little adult in front of others, but she didn't expect to show such a childish side today.
The queen continued to ask with a smile: "If the emperor and this palace are the masters and betrothed to Xiao Yi, the prince of Zhennan, would you be willing?"
While the queen was speaking, the emperor smiled and looked at Nangong Yue, his right hand touched the huge jasper finger on his left thumb, and there was a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
"Ah?! Your Majesty, the Empress..." Nangong Yue was stunned, she opened her mouth, as if she had just reacted, and said with a bitter face, "But, can you not?"
"Why?" The Queen didn't expect her to say this, and asked, "Didn't you just say you don't hate Xiao Shizi?"
"I don't hate it, but, but the southern border is too far!" Nangong Yue flattened her mouth and said unhappily, "Yue'er doesn't want to leave the capital, I won't be able to see the emperor, the empress, my parents and brothers..."
So this is ah! The queen showed a clear look, thinking about it, she would not be happy to let a little girl marry so far away suddenly.
