Chapter 8 Someone coming from the palace
  Haitang wanted to persuade her young lady, but Qiao Niannian was already sitting in front of the dressing table, waiting for her to come forward and help her fix her hair.

Haitang thought that the young lady was in good health, her mood was very important, and pulling her hair was not a big deal.

When she turned around and found that there was no way to enter the palace, she gave up.

Haitang walked up to Qiao Niannian and raised her hand to give Qiao Niannian a hairstyle for everyday use at home. Qiao Niannian glanced at it and said in a calm voice: "A hairstyle for the palace."

Haitang didn't know how to tell her young lady that it was impossible for them to enter the palace.

But seeing her young lady's serious look, Haitang sighed heavily in her heart.

Could it be that when my young lady jumped into the river, she also injured her brain, but the doctor didn't diagnose it?

No matter what she thought, her men's movements were neat.

Soon, the hair on the temples was restored with a single glance.

Haitang chose a set of Lanxi Feihua headdress according to the clothes worn by her own lady, and earrings of the same style. This dress and headdress immediately added a bit of cold temperament to Qiao Niannian's originally delicate face.

"Miss, yours is so beautiful."

Haitang looked at Qiao Niannian's face and couldn't help it. She picked up the flower flower and put it between her eyebrows.

This time, the whole face became brighter and brighter.

Qiao Niannian took a look and saw that there was nothing wrong, so she stood up.

"Let's go!"

Haitang's expression tightened: "Miss, actually we can't enter at all..."

Haitang chased her to the door. Before she could finish her words, she saw the housekeeper leading the eunuch to Qiao Niannian in a hurry. The two of them saluted Qiao Niannian.

The eunuch spoke first.

"Miss Qiao Er, we have been summoned by the palace."

Haitang was stunned.

No, I really want to enter the palace.

She glanced at her young lady subconsciously, and saw that her young lady's face was dull and unfazed.

Haitang was shocked. How did her young lady know that the emperor would summon them?

Before Haitang could think about it, Qiao Niannian followed the eunuch and left.

Haitang followed him in a daze.

On the way, Qiao Niannian also talked to the housekeeper by the way: "Butler Zhu, Pomegranate Face is injured. Please turn around and let the doctor take a look and get the best medicine to make her suffer less."

Butler Zhu looked stern. He had gone out to do something for the Marquis in the morning.

Could it be that if he hadn't been watching for half a day, someone in the house wouldn't stop?

Butler Zhu did not dare to delay: "Don't worry, miss, I will send someone to call the doctor immediately."

Behind him, Haitang became more and more confused.

Pomegranate stood at the door without entering. Could it be that the lady saw it from the window?

Haitang was now full of doubts, but she had no chance to ask.

Qiao Niannian left the palace, got on the carriage, and entered the palace all the way. This time, the emperor's grace allowed the carriage to enter the inner palace and get off. Otherwise, it would have taken half an hour to walk this road.

Qiao Niannian got off the carriage and walked a short distance to the Xuanzheng Hall.

After the eunuch went in to report, Qiao Niannian went in. As for Haitang, she was left outside the door.

Step into the door and go through the archway to the inner room.

In the inner room, the emperor is sitting on the throne, and on the right side stands His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in court uniform.

On the left side, stand Mingyuan Hou and Huo Shi.

Qiao Niannian walked into the inner room and was about to salute when the emperor waved his hand first.

"No need to kneel, no courtesy."

After the emperor finished speaking, he took a look at Qiao Niannian. Although Qiao Niannian was only ten years old now, she had a small face with delicate features and long facial features. She was definitely a rare beauty. In addition to his appearance, his calm demeanor and his unchanging behavior in times of shock are even more eye-catching.

"Are you the one who copied Buddhist scriptures?"

Qiao Nian thought about Fu Shen: "Back to the Emperor, the Buddhist scriptures were indeed written by my daughter."

The emperor's tone dropped: "Why did you put the Buddhist scriptures on the beam and almost kill someone? Do you know your sin?"

Mingyuanhou's heart skipped a beat.

He had been frightened by the emperor's habitual tactic for so many years, but he still couldn't help being startled every time the emperor scolded him in a deep voice.

His precious daughter, who has been pampered since childhood, jumped into the river a few days ago, so don't be frightened.

Just as Mingyuan Hou was about to reply, Qiao Niannian had already spoken first.

"Returning to the emperor, my eldest brother and the border officers are true heroes in protecting our family and the country. Although my eldest daughter cannot go into battle together to kill the enemy, I still want to do my best. I specially asked for Buddhist scriptures to be copied and prayed for. As for placing them on the beam, I was instructed by an expert, and as for being misunderstood, it may be God's will, maybe my eldest brother will soon be able to put an end to the war and return to the court."

His remarks were neither humble nor arrogant, and his tone was calm, but quite steady.

One moment the emperor was sullen and his thoughts were hard to discern, but the next moment he was overjoyed.

"Marquis Mingyuan, I never knew you had such a smart and beautiful daughter. How lucky you are!"

"What happened this time was a misunderstanding. I have wronged you. It is rare for Qiao Niannian to have such a kindhearted heart at such a young age."

"In this case, I will give you two days off and go back to spend time with your family."

"In addition, I will give Qiao Niannian a hundred taels of gold and two pieces of high-quality brocade. I think your handwriting is good and you have a lot of character. I will also give you a set of four high-quality study treasures."

"I think it's getting late. Come and have dinner with me at noon! The prince will accompany you."

Qiao Niannian felt happy in her heart. With the prince here, her spiritual power might be restored to some extent.

These days, she has been practicing every day, but the progress is not obvious. It is not as much as the spiritual power she can absorb by staying with the prince for a while.

Qiao Niannian was happy, but Mingyuanhou was shocked.

When has the emperor ever cared about whether his ministers were hungry?

In the past, when he went to court, the emperor and his ministers had different opinions. The emperor even deliberately put a table of delicious food in the court and spent time with them in the court.

The emperor's mouth was full of oil after eating, and they were so hungry and dizzy below.

Now that the emperor was concerned about the problem of hunger, Mingyuanhou only felt that there was a conspiracy.

The emperor remained calm and waited for the meal to be passed around. Mingyuan Hou was beating a drum in his heart. Huo was cautious, but Prince Xia Rong and Qiao Niannian looked calm.

Qiao Niannian had been thinking about rubbing the prince's purple energy for a while, seizing the time to absorb more spiritual energy.

It was only after getting to the dinner table that Qiao Niannian realized that she had no contact with Xia Rongyu.

The dining table is large and there are many meals. Qiao Niannian and Xia Rong are several meters away from it.

I used to think it was exaggerated when I watched TV, but now I see it is extremely real.

Although it is not as luxurious as having more than 100 dishes, there are still more than 20 dishes.

This time, because their family was dining together, the emperor ordered a few more dishes, and now there were thirty-two dishes on the table.

[Luxury, this is too extravagant, this is all people's wealth and wealth. 】

Mingyuanhou suddenly heard his daughter's voice and was so frightened that his hands trembled.

He hurriedly looked up to see the emperor, and found that the emperor's expression was calm, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

This daughter of my own really dares to think that she dares to say that the emperor is fed by people's fat and people's anointing. If this spreads out, it will be a crime of beheading.

Fortunately the emperor couldn't hear.

Just when Mingyuan Hou was about to use his chopsticks, he heard his daughter's voice again.

[This emperor is still diligent and caring for the people, but his life is short, and he is about to face a great disaster. 】

Mingyuan Hou was so frightened that he dropped his chopsticks on the ground!
