invincible ugly queen

Chapter 42 Commanding the Harem (1)
"I'm waiting to see the Empress—" As soon as Nangong Wanqing entered the side hall, two men stepped forward to bow down.

"Father, brother, please hurry up—" Nangong Wanqing was shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward to help Nangong Lie and Nangong Bo, and looked at it carefully. Nangong Lie's white hair on the temples had obviously increased a lot, but his eyes Always as sharp as an eagle.The other man looked somewhat similar to Nangong Lie, dressed in a navy blue official second-rank official robe, exuding a gentle and refined temperament all the time.This must be her brother Nangong Bo whom she has never seen before.

It is not easy to see relatives in this desolate and deep palace, just looking at them quietly, Nangong Wanqing forgot her words, her beautiful eyes were a little wet, and tears seemed to flow from her eyes.

"Don't cry, silly girl, why are you still a crybaby like before?" Nangong Bo patted her on the shoulder distressedly, and said apologetically, "Brother has wronged you. You didn't even attend your sister's wedding, how are you doing now?"

"It's...it's okay—" Her back was choked with sobs, and she tried to hold back the tears that were about to shed. She didn't know whether it was joy or sadness, but there were too many things that happened in the palace in just two months. At least now she hates happiness , isn't it?

"I heard that the emperor dotes on you very much, as long as you are happy, everything is fine—" Nangong Bo's gentle voice softened Nangong Wanqing's heart a little bit, this is the feeling of having a loved one.

"Father and elder brother came down to court just now. You haven't had breakfast yet, so why don't you eat with me." He looked at Nangong Lie and said, "Father, you have lost a lot of weight."

"Father is an old man. Looking at you now, you are more mature and sensible than before. Father is very comforting!" Nangong Lie also said with emotion, his wrinkled face was also full of love .

"Let's go, let's have breakfast." Nangong Wanqing affectionately took Nangong Lie and Nangong Bo's arms and went to the dining room for dinner.

"Okay——" Nangong Lie also walked into the dining room with strides. The family was talking and laughing, as if they were loving fathers and filial sons.

"Qing'er, I heard that the emperor has slept in your Fengyi Palace recently, is it true?" During the dinner, Nangong Lie couldn't help asking.

"Uh, yes—" Nangong Wanqing's face turned red in an instant, originally she thought that Nangong Lie was only asking about the couple's boudoir, so she didn't care.

"Did the emperor say when he would give you the right to rule the harem?"

"Ugh—" I picked up a piece of jujube cake and was chewing it carefully, but when I heard my father ask this question, I choked up, and asked nazily: "What commands the harem?"

"You are now the empress, the emperor's first wife, and the most honorable woman in Southern Chu. Besides you, who else is worthy to lead the harem?"

"But I don't understand anything, these things are too complicated, and the emperor never mentioned—"

"Qing'er, you have always been so simple. Now that the emperor loves you so much, you want to take the opportunity to ask the emperor for the imperial edict to rule the harem. This is the long-term solution, you know?" looking at his daughter.

"A long-term solution?" Nangong Wanqing muttered these words complicatedly. The meaning of the father is to let him intervene in the affairs of the harem. Is it really good to do so?
Seeing his younger sister's distressed face, Nangong Bo gently held Nangong Wanqing's hand, and said distressedly: "Father is also for your own good, don't think too much."

"En." Nangong Wanqing smiled gratefully at him.

At this time, Bao'er took pear blossom wine from the warehouse and gave each of them a glass. When she was pouring it for Nangong Lie, she was stopped by Nangong Wanqing. She wanted to pour the wine for her father herself, but unexpectedly she slipped When they reached the table, the pear wine in their hands fell to the ground.
