Chapter 168: Want to enter the palace to eat melons, and get the imperial edict
Daju: [How about we go to the palace to eat some melons? See what Nangong Qi is thinking? ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [What identities can we enter with? We have no official status, no imperial edict, we are not royal relatives, and my father is not an official in Beijing.]
Daju: [Is it that troublesome? I can go by myself. ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Let me think about it. We can ask Nangong Rui to take us in, but we can only stay for one day, so we can't finish eating all the melons, right?]
Daju: I just want Nangong Qi to hear you eating the melons. I don’t want you to eat all the melons.
Daju: [Eat as much as you can. ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Tell Nangong Rui a thing the next time you see him. By the way, isn’t his crown princess a troublemaker?]
Daju: [Why are you asking her? Girls raised by aristocratic families are quite righteous, don't worry.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [I am afraid of women who make things up. Although I am only four years old now, look at your height. It worries me to death.]
Daju: Others can’t even envy you, yet you’re still worried.
Tian Xiaoxiao: [No, I shouldn't worry. I will definitely grow to 170+cm tall. By then, there will be very few people willing to marry me. My parents won't force me to get married because I won't be able to find a husband who matches me.]
Lin Yunzhi: What is this kid thinking? A tall girl should be matched with a tall man.
Tian Lele: My sister really thinks far ahead.
Ade: How can a woman not get married?
Ruozhu: Miss, this is a good idea. I am very strong and no man dares to marry me.
Dai Sega sneezed in Shengjing. Why did the weather suddenly become like this at the end of June?
Daju: [See how much your cultivation has increased? My progress bar seems to have stopped. ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Mine has increased a lot, and, Qingchen, my divine bone, look! ]
Daju looked at the divine bone with patterns on it and the ancient totem in front of her, which proved that she was that person.
Lin Yunzhi and the others really wanted to know what happened to Tian Xiaoxiao's divine bones.
Daju: [It actually grew a pattern? There wasn't one before, right? 】
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Yes, yes, are you familiar with this pattern? ]
Daju: I can’t say.
Daju: [I haven’t seen it.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [I’ll look it up in a book later. I think I’ve seen this pattern before.]
Daju: [Yeah, do you want to take a break? I'm going to take a walk around the Imperial City. ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Actually, I can go now.]
Daju: [How are you going to get there? ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [There is a box in my bracelet, and inside it is a stack of invisibility talismans.]
Daju: [Why didn’t you say so earlier? ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [I also found it when I was tidying up yesterday. ]
Daju: [I feel a little sleepy today. Let’s go tomorrow. I have other things to do in the evening.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Okay, we’ll set off after breakfast tomorrow.]
Early in the morning, when the two were preparing to go out the next day, Nangong Rui arrived at the Tian family with the imperial edict.
It turned out that last night Nangong Qi heard from the young eunuch that two people who liked to eat melons came to Xijing and could eat out all the dirty things done by Jingzhao Yin Meng Tiancheng. Nangong Qi became interested and wanted to eat some melons as well.
When the prince learned about this, he requested an imperial decree to allow the Tian family to enter the palace.
However, the imperial edict said that Tian Xingjian had made contributions to the country and the people. The emperor was grateful for his merits and took the opportunity to comfort the Tian family while they were in Xijing.
This made Tian Lele very happy.
Now that Tian Xiaoxiao has entered the palace, the royal family’s fig leaf is about to be lifted. Let’s see what expression the emperor will have then.
Deng Hongyu happened to be there today, and the prince allowed Tian Xiwen to bring her into the palace.
Lin Yunzhi asked the children to change their clothes quickly.
Deng Hongyu hurried back home. When the Deng family learned that she was going to follow her fiancé Tian Xiwen into the palace, the whole family was in a panic and could not make up their minds.
In the end, I still felt that I should ask Lin Yunzhi about this.
Deng Hongyu's mother Liang asked Deng Hongyu's maid to carry the box to Tian's house.
Liang did not hide anything. After greeting and chatting for a while, she got straight to the point and stated the reason for her visit.
“Mother-in-law, you know, my family is a merchant family and we have never experienced such a scene, so we don’t know how to dress Hongyu.
Hongyu's palace dress and jewelry are all here, please help me take a look."
Liang's tone was very humble, and he did not at all act inferior to others just because he was a merchant.
Ever since Tian Xiwen got engaged to the Deng family, Lin Yunzhi accepted the Deng family unconditionally. She has never had any prejudice against family background, and she only cares about the two children getting along well.
"My dear, don't be so polite. This is what I should do. Hongyu is tall and looks good in anything. We are not ladies of high rank. We should wear everyday clothes when we enter the palace. We just need to be dignified, generous and decent."
After saying that, Lin Yunzhi helped Deng Hongyu pick out a light blue palace dress.
Asked Ade to re-comb Deng Hongyu's hair and modify her makeup.
After dressing up, Liang asked: "Is this still my daughter?"
Deng Hongyu had a dignified appearance to begin with, and when she dressed up properly, she looked so bright and charming that Liang couldn't even recognize her.
"Mother-in-law, Hongyu is naturally pretty, but she doesn't like to dress up on weekdays." Lin Yunzhi pulled Deng Hongyu, looking left and right, making such a graceful girl feel at a loss.
At this time, several men from the Tian family were chatting and laughing, changed their clothes, and went to the main hall.
This time it was Deng Hongyu's turn to be stunned.
The man in front of him was tall and slender. The collar and cuffs of his indigo robe were embroidered with silver-thread cloud patterns, and he had a wide green cloud-patterned brocade belt around his waist. His jet-black hair was tied up and he wore a small silver crown inlaid with jade on top of it. The white jade on the silver crown was crystal clear and moist, which made his hair look shiny and smooth, just like silk.
She knew that Tian Xiwen was good-looking, but she had never dressed so formally.
Tian Xiwen noticed that Deng Hongyu didn't move, and thought that he was not doing something right: "Hongyu, is it not okay for me to dress like this?"
Deng Hongyu finally reacted.
"You look so beautiful like this." Deng Hongyu blushed. She didn't behave like such a little girl in the past.
Tian Xiwen looked at the two red clouds that suddenly blossomed on her face, and forgot to blink: "Hongyu, you look very beautiful today, and you have touched my heart."
Tian Xiaoxiao heard this as soon as she entered the room: "Brother, that's right. Girls want their loved ones to praise them more. The more you praise her, the prettier she will be."
"You little rascal, how old are you and you're teaching me, your brother? How could I be worse than you at coaxing girls?" Tian Xiwen rarely quarreled with Tian Xiaoxiao.
"Brother, speaking of this, I'm afraid there's no man in Ming Ning Country who understands girls' minds better than me." Tian Xiaoxiao said shamelessly.
"If you believe me, you little girl, your man probably won't even be able to find a wife!"
Tian Xiwu also supported Tian Xiwen.
"Second brother, Cui Shi took a fancy to you years ago, but why is there no follow-up? Do you know the reason?"
Tian Xiaoxiao shifted the topic to Tian Xiwu.
"I, I'm still young, no, I don't want to think about this kind of thing. The girl is afraid of being delayed, so, there's no follow-up!"
"Nonsense, Miss Cui, I met you on the street one day, but you didn't understand romance, you didn't understand romance, and you hurt Miss Cui's heart."
Tian Xiaoxiao looked like she was waiting to see what you would do next.
"You said that the girl that day was Miss Cui?"
"What do you say?"
"It's over, it's over, it's over, it's over!"
