Chapter 142

Concubine Mei looked at Nangong Ning and Nangong Ning smiled faintly, “I’ve been here for a long time, so it’s time to go back.”

Since Concubine Mei couldn’t get any more clues, let’s change Queen Xun.

Of course, Concubine Mei wouldn’t stop Nangong Ning. She just asked Shuang’er to personally lead her to send a box of jade to Nangong Ning and Nangong Ning to Fengyi Palace.

When they reached the Fengyi Palace, Queen Xun looked at the box of jade and smiled, “Concubine Mei is very considerate, much better than some people.”

Of course, Nangong Ning knew that she was talking about the noble, but he didn’t say it either.

Queen Xun didn’t say much. She pointed to a few brocade boxes in the hall and said, “These are sent by people from other palaces. They are also good things. Ning Er, take a look.”

Nangong Ning didn’t refuse. At first glance, they were indeed good things. After all, she was married to the Regent. No one dared to underestimate her. Even if the situation wasn’t good, she wouldn’t be petty with the makeup.

“Empress, thank you for me.”

Queen Xun nodded. She knew that Nangong Ning came from Nangong Family, so she didn’t care too much about these things. However, she still needed to set them up properly and make all-out efforts to let Nangong Ning get closer to her.

“By the way, the emperor just told me that she knows that you’re wronged this time, but you’re going to get married soon, so there are many things that should not be announced. If it affects the marriage, it will not be beautiful.”

When Nangong Ning heard this, he smiled faintly. She knew that Queen Xun would say such things to her and she had long thought that the Phoenix Sky Emperor would ‘appease’ her in today’s matter.

“Mommy, don’t worry. I’ll focus on the bigger picture,” she said as she was about to leave this place.

Queen Xun looked at Nangong Ning with satisfaction.

Nangong Ning was beautiful and obedient, and he had all the wealth of the Nangong Family in his hands. If he really became her daughter-in-law, that would be great.

Why didn’t I stop my son from marrying Nangong Qingyao?

When she thought about it, Queen Xun thought that although she had never seen Nangong Ning before, she knew that she was taken care of by the Nangong Luo couple, so she agreed to Jun Zixuan’s actions.

Now, it turned out that Nangong Ning had been pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger.

This also showed that Nangong Ning was not as obedient and harmless as she looked on the surface.

However, it was precisely because of this that they were more qualified to be the Crown Princess.

How could he help his man achieve a career without any tricks?

But… Queen Xun’s eyes were quiet for a moment. In a day, Nangong Ning would become the Regent’s Consort.

Nangong Ning didn’t know what Queen Xun was thinking and she didn’t care. She cared about something else.

“Empress Dowager, that Mr. Xiao is really impressive. If it wasn’t for him today, I’m afraid that she’ll be a noble person…”

“That’s right, I didn’t expect that the pouch would be Mr. Xiao’s. That woman from An Empire, if she wanted to scheme against someone, she really found the wrong person. Mr. Xiao didn’t casually pull him down,” Queen Xun sneered.

When Nangong Ning heard this, his heart sank. From the tone of voice, Queen Xun was completely know nothing about in this matter. She actually thought that the pouch belonged to Xiao Feibai.

“That’s true. The servant girl looks at Mr. Xiao. He’s very special. He’s dressed in simple clothes but he’s outstanding.”

“There was a time when the Emperor was bitten by a poisonous snake on the way. It was Mr. Xiao who saved the emperor. He had the credit to save him and he rejected all of them. His Majesty trusted and loved him,” Queen Xun didn’t know what Nangong Ning was thinking, but she simply praised Xiao Feibai’s character.

Nangong Ning’s lips twitched and he said in a stiff tone, “Well, Mr. Xiao is really a person who doesn’t like fame and profit.”

Don’t love fame and profit? Then why did he blackmail her in the southern suburbs?

Queen Xun nodded and said, “Ning’er is right. Mr. Xiao does not like fame and profit. The Emperor gave him no copper. In other words, he ate and lived in the palace. The accessories and so on are his own.”

Nangong Ning was speechless. This man was quite good at pretending.

“Although the pouch is rough, I heard Mr. Xiao say it is his and I won’t suspect it. It seems that Anshi is not sure this time, so she insisted on committing suicide,” Queen Xun added.

Nangong Ning was stunned. It turned out that the Phoenix Emperor believed Xiao Feibai when he heard him.

Indeed, compared to her, if someone didn’t specifically get the bag into the palace, it would definitely be Xiao Feibai’s, because.. he had no money!

However, Nangong Ning still didn’t think that Xiao Feibai was a good person, or rather, a simple person. Even the be rather baffling he told her in private couldn’t make her believe him!

However, she should not be able to investigate the origin of Xiao Feibai from Queen Xun, Concubine Mei and even the Phoenix Emperor.

If his background was fake, then the Phoenix Sky Emperor and the rest were completely deceived.

Queen Xun didn’t know that Nangong Ning’s mind was focused on Xiao Feibai. She casually talked to her about Xiao Feibai and then talked about the wedding.

Nangong Ning was not interested in the wedding at all. Of course, she was only so uninterested because of her own request.

She couldn’t look forward to the wedding, and she couldn’t look forward to anything else. The only thing she could hope for now was that Jun Qianye would come quickly and let her know earlier how to avoid the wedding and ruin it.

However, now that the next day had passed, the wedding would be going on in another day, and Nangong Ning still had no one to wait for.

Another night passed when Nangong Ning was in a dilemma. When she opened her eyes early in the morning, she asked Ning Fei, who was standing beside her.

“Feiya, isn’t anyone coming to see me?”

“No.” Ning Fei looked at Nangong Ning with a strange expression on her face.

Nangong Ning was depressed. This was the last day.

After thinking for a while, she said, “Call Xun Qiu and the girls in and serve me to freshen up.”

Ning Fei nodded and walked out quickly.

Very soon, Xun Qiu and the others came in with disheveled tools and neatly helped Nangong Ning get changed.

Xun Qiu combed Nangong Ning’s hair and smiled as she combed it, “Miss Nangong’s hair is so good. When tomorrow comes, Khai wears a wedding gown with jade crowned hair. It must be very beautiful.”

When Nangong Ning heard this, he smiled faintly, “It will be very beautiful for everyone to wear a wedding dress.”

Xun Qiu smiled and didn’t say anything else.

That’s right, whoever was the bride would be beautiful, but she didn’t have the opportunity to do so.

At this moment, Nangong Ning had some be absent-minded. He didn’t expect her words to touch Xun Qiu’s heart. She was just thinking about what would happen on the last day.

However, she couldn’t ask Xun Qiu and the others about this matter. She could only wait patiently.

Having breakfast with Queen Xun, a palace lady came in saying that it was Prince Regent.

Nangong Ning’s heart skipped a beat when he heard this.

Queen Xun saw it and smiled. “Why is Gu’er so nervous?”

Nangong Ning knew that Queen Xun misunderstood and didn’t explain. He just smiled shyly and lowered his head.

Queen Xun asked someone to invite Prince Regent’s people in, and the palace girl asked her to go forward. Soon, footsteps rang and several people entered.

Nangong Ning stared at the door of the hall and was delighted when she saw that the person in front was Aunt Duan.

Aunt Duan came in and looked at Nangong Ning kindly. Then she walked in front of Queen Xun and politely said, “This servant greets the Empress, a thousand years old.”

“Aunty, don’t be so courteous. You’re a mother’s stepmother. You don’t need to be like this in front of this palace,” Queen Xun saw Aunt Duan but she did not dare to be too arrogant.

Even though the Empress died early, there was no need to lose the honor.

Aunt Duan did not hesitate and did not salute. Instead, she walked over to Nangong Ning and said, “Consort, this servant is here to deliver the wedding gown.”

“A wedding dress?” When Nangong Ning saw Aunt Duan, he was confused about why she came, but he didn’t expect it to be a gift.

Aunt Duan nodded. “Yes, Wushuang Pavilion sent the princess’s wedding dress early in the morning, so this servant quickly brought someone over to you.”

Nangong Ning was stunned for a moment before remembering that Jun Qianye had indeed given the wedding gown to Wushuang Pavilion.

Could it be that Bai Wushuang appeared in Jun Qianye’s study that day for the wedding?

Nangong Ning didn’t know how he thought about it, but he thought it should be like this.

But if that was the case, wouldn’t she have wronged Jun Qianye?

No, no! At least, Bai Wushuang’s eyes were filled with feelings that day. She really admired Jun Qianye.

In the blink of an eye, Nangong Ning was lost in his mind.

“Consort?” Aunt Duan called her softly when she saw this.

Nangong Ning scolded himself as an idiot, quickly came back to his senses and smiled at Aunt Duan, “I still have to send you personally. Actually, I just need someone to come.”

“That’s not the case,” Aunt Duan smiled. “The wedding dress of the princess is extremely important. This servant will naturally come.”

Nangong Ning nodded and looked at Aunt Duan gratefully.

Aunt Duan asked the maid to carry her wedding gown in.

The wedding gown was placed in the cage and there were three.

Aunt Duan glanced at Nangong Ning with a smile and pointed at the box. “The first one is the wedding dress, the second is the jewellery, and the third is the shoes.”

Queen Xun smiled. “This is really fine.”

Aunt Duan looked at Nangong Ning again and said, “Tomorrow is the big wedding. The princess should try the wedding dress first. If there is something wrong, she still has time to cultivate.”

“Do you still want to try?” The moment Nangong Ning asked, she felt a little regretful. Even in her previous life, she had a wedding dress before marriage.

Aunt Duan didn’t think much about it. Instead, she looked at Nangong Ning with more satisfaction and said, “The princess is young and I don’t know that this wedding is going to be a try. This is the most important day of a woman’s life when they get married. Naturally, they have to be beautiful everywhere.”
