CORRECTED

Meng Qingqian thought of that day, He Yunxiaos deep love for Nanzhu, and thought of her promise not to interfere with him and Nanzhu, so she said, If Mother agrees, then I will fulfill them and make them whole.

The Empress Dowager felt that something was not quite right when Meng Qingqian said fulfill.

She knew her daughters character best. When she can Want it all, she will definitely say I want it all. When she could ride the wave of victory, she would ride the wave of victory. When it is necessary to break the wrist, will definitely not hesitate to break the wrist.

Even in a desperate situation, she will still find a way to take a bite out of you.

Over the years, she never even said let you off the hook, not to mention make it whole.

Today was strange, as she was indecisive and fulfilled when dealing with He Yunxiao and Nanzhus engagement, not like her usual self.

Apart from this hint, the Empress Dowager felt something was wrong in her heart for no reason.

She felt in her intuition that if she agreed to marry Nanzhu to the marquiss family as his wife today, she would be at a great disadvantage in the future.

Although thinking rationally, with her methods, it was impossible for Nanzhu to have the slightest chance of winning if she were to go against her.

However, the Empress Dowager had a feeling that her good daughter would not be able to defeat Nanzhu.

She was a little surprised by this intuition herself.

Anyway, first she couldnt promise He Yuanhao!

Drag!

The Empress Dowager rubbed her temples and said lazily, Gongqin.

Li Gongqin, as the Empress Dowagers own nephew and the Princess own cousin, plus the part-time Minister of Rites of Qi, plus the part-time father of Li Jin, naturally looked up to the Empress Dowager, who had the highest seniority.

When he saw the Empress Dowager calling him, he immediately stopped joking and bent over and said, I am here.

The Empress Dowager continued to lean back in her chair, rubbing her temples and looking as if she had been suffering from distress.

Afterwards, she handed the large red folders filled with bridal gifts, to the palace maid, who, after receiving the folders, turned her hand to Li Gongqin.

Gongqin, I have some trouble remembering the specifications of the bridal gift required for marrying the Princess. As the Minister of Rites, you are in charge of rites and laws. Take this folded paper back and check it carefully, then submit it to me after you have checked it.

When the folders reached Li Gongqins hands, no one in the room thought there was anything wrong.

It was normal for the Empress Dowager to be forgetful. It was normal for the Ministry of Rites to review the specifications of the bridal price. It was normal for the Empress Dowager to give the bridal gifts to the Ministry of Rites to check because she was forgetful.

No one thought there was anything wrong.

After a moment, she suddenly realized that she didnt have to be like this. So she opened her eyes, lifted her head up and stopped using her hands to protect her bottom.

It was good that she didnt have to be punished, but she couldnt be happy with her eyes downcast.

When she took her injured finger into her mouth, it only took a moment, and when she took it out again, the bleeding from the silver needle bite stopped, and the tiny bite, too, was gone.

It heals a little faster than normal.

At this time of the day, the gentle afternoon sun emits gentle rays of sunlight that shine on the little girls body.

It was warm.

It warmed up the blood all over her body.

Meng Qingrou looked at the, injured finger in front of her, as if remembering something, and a gentle smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Her body was much better than before. In the past, she would only go out for a while in the afternoon when the sun was at its warmest.

Now, she can go out at all hours of the day if she wants to. Even on colder evenings, there is no difficulty in getting out into the cool air.

But she still only used to walk around a bit in the afternoon. It was a long-standing habit. The rest of the day, even if she could go out, what would she do?

After embroidering the sachet bag for a while, she was still quite close to finishing it, but Meng Qingrou put down her needle and thread and got up, calling out, Xinger.

And she said, Xinger, Im going to pick the herbs.

Her voice was still not loud, but Xinger had been listening attentively and answered quickly.

Alright! Your Highness, wait a moment!

Xing er handed over the work in hand to the other palace maids, washed her hands, and fetched the sickle and hoe for picking herbs, as well as the bamboo basket for the herbs.

Xinger walked up to Meng Qingrou, holding the sickle and hoe that would be injured herself, and handed the bamboo basket to Meng Qingrou.

Your Highness take it.

Hm.

These sickles and hoes, Your Highness is not allowed to touch them anymore.

Yes.

The needle and thread had better not be touched either.

He said I could Meng Qingrou shook her head and said, Im fine to touch it now.

Xinger was like a sister to her own little highness and talked about everything, so she naturally knew who this he was.

Xinger smiled and said, What kind of herbs does Your Highness want to pick today? Is it to cure his illness?

Meng Qingrou turned her face to the side, Hmph, not at all.

Xinger pretended to be busy and said, I see, since we wont be picking today, lets go back. I dont need to deliver medicine to anyone else at night anyway.

Meng Qingrou was carrying a bamboo basket, and when she heard this, she hastily put her arms around Xinger and coaxed her, Be good Xinger, lets pick plenty today and make two portions, so we dont need to pick tomorrow either.

Xing er let the girl hug her, and was sincerely happy.

The climate was getting colder, but everything was getting better.
