Chapter 24

Early in the morning, Nangong Wuwo came over, seeing his slightly tired look, Nangong Xiaoxiao knew that Nangong Wuwo must not have slept well last night.

"Grandpa, did you not rest last night?" Nangong Xiaoxiao's concerned voice moved Nangong Wuwo for a moment.

"It's okay, Xiaoxiao. Grandpa thought about it for a long time last night, but he still thinks that you should not go to the palace today. Don't worry, grandpa will definitely seek justice for you." It was not a wise move for Xiaoxiao to go to the palace together, so she came here early in the morning to dissuade Nangong Xiaoxiao again.

Nangong Xiaoxiao said with a serious face: "Grandpa, this is Xiaoxiao's engagement. If Xiaoxiao doesn't go, what face will Xiaoxiao have to live in the world in the future? At that time, others will really think that we people in Nangong Mansion are easy to bully."

Seeing that Nangong Xiaoxiao still persisted, Nangong Wuwo didn't say any more, just said: "Okay, we will enter the palace now."

When the two of them reached the gate, they saw their second uncle Nangong Qi and several elders standing at the gate. When they saw Nangong Xiaoxiao, there was a trace of anger in everyone's eyes, but since Nangong didn't have me present, it was difficult for them to get angry.

"Patriarch, you really want to enter the palace, just for a small marriage contract, why bother." The elder had long held a grudge against Nangong Xiaoxiao because of what happened to Luo Junshao, so he just said.

"Don't worry about Nangong, your head was kicked by a donkey, little engagement, don't forget, he Chu Tianchu slapped not only my face yesterday, but also the face of the entire Nangong family of Nangong Mansion." Nangong had no expression on me. After a sinking, he said coldly.

"Chu Tianchu is the emperor of the Chunan Empire, our heaven. Does the patriarch really want to fight against the entire Chunan Empire for Nangong Xiaoxiao? Aren't you doing this openly against Chu Tianchu? Nangongfu is not the patriarch If you are alone, the patriarch still has to think about it." Nangong Buchou also had a face full of resentment, although he was only an elder, but regardless of his seniority, Nangong Wuwo would still call him uncle, and today he was reprimanded by Nangong Wuwo like this, Where to put his face.

Nangong Wuwo was already very angry when he was blocked at the door, but who knew that Nangong Buchou would actually look like he wanted to teach him a lesson, and a nameless fire of "Ceng" burst out.

"Okay, since the Great Elder said that my actions would be detrimental to the Nangong family, the old man will resign as the patriarch today. This broken patriarch has tired me for so many years, and the old man has long since given up on it. Whoever wants to do it, Nangong has nothing to do. I hand in my hand and send it off." Nangong Wuwo's ​​eyes were filled with anger, all these years, he has been patient, how much bullying Xiaoxiao has suffered at such a young age, today, he will not give in again.

Nangong Wuwo is a strong man in the Chunan Empire. Nangong knows that even if several of their patriarchs add up, they may not be the opponent of Nangong Wuwo. Over the years, although the emperor of Chunan is not happy with Nangong Mansion, but because of Nangong Wuwo didn't have any face, and he didn't dare to show it blatantly. If Nangong Wuwo resigned as the patriarch, what status would the Nangong family have in the Southern Chu Empire?

Second Elder Nangong Guang hurriedly said: "Patriarch, don't get angry, we just want to discuss with you."

"What are you discussing? You are forcing me to discuss, hum, don't worry, Nangong Xiaoxiao is my granddaughter, so I won't bother you with her affairs." breath.

Nangong Qi saw that Nangong Wuwo offended several elders, a sneer flashed in his eyes, and he restrained his emotions in an instant, and said to Nangong Wuwo: "Father, all the elders are also afraid that you and Emperor Chunan will have trouble if you disagree with each other. It's too late, besides, niece Xiaoxiao doesn't want to see such a result, right?"

Nangong Qi skillfully led the conversation to Nangong Xiaoxiao. Originally, Nangong Xiaoxiao didn't want to fight with these people here, but she found that the more she wanted to hide, the more she couldn't. Since she couldn't hide, there was no need to hide anymore.

So Nangong Xiaoxiao said with a slight smile: "Grandpa, elders, Xiaoxiao's matter is indeed a trivial matter, isn't it just that His Royal Highness retired the engagement? Xiaoxiao has been a waste in everyone's eyes since she was a child, and the divorce of a waste has no effect on the Nangong family , Grandpa, let Xiaoxiao go into the palace by herself, you are the patriarch, you can't be misunderstood by villains because of this."

"Nonsense, I'm your grandfather, how can I ignore you, well, let's go, it's a waste to waste so much effort." Nangong Wuwo didn't want to get entangled with these people, turned around and walked out the door.

With Nangong Wuwo's ​​insistence, the elders had no choice but to watch Nangong Wuwo and Nangong Xiaoxiao walk out of the gate.

"Xiaoxiao, the second uncle knows that you have opinions on the second uncle, but the second uncle still wants to persuade you. You did something wrong in this matter. Because of your father, our Nangong Mansion flourished for a while, and became the second only to Chu. The existence of Nanjun, but because your father left without saying goodbye, Emperor Chunan has been trying to suppress our Nangong family all these years. If this matter is not handled well, it may really harm the Nangong family. Xiaoxiao, I hope that if the second uncle, you It's better to listen, don't put the whole family in danger just for the sake of instant success." Nangong Qi blocked Nangong Xiaoxiao and said earnestly.

If Nangong Yanyan hadn't caused so many troubles, and if Nangong Qi hadn't said what Nangong Qi said to Luo Junshao during the test yesterday, maybe Nangong Xiaoxiao would really have regarded him as a kind person. Unfortunately, Nangong Xiaoxiao had known him a long time ago. As a human being, she said coldly to Nangong Qi's face: "Thank you for your guidance, Second Uncle. Second Uncle has planned a strategy, and everything has been calculated. However, Xiaoxiao still wants to remind Second Uncle that sometimes too many calculations are not a good thing. I, Nangong Xiaoxiao, always do things with a clear conscience, so Second Uncle can rest assured that this is all my niece's business, even if something happens, my niece will not let the Nangong family accompany me."

"Xiaoxiao, you are not in the car yet." Nangong Wuwo was already impatient, and called Nangong Xiaoxiao loudly.

"Here we come, Grandpa." Nangong Xiaoxiao responded and walked past the frozen Nangong Qi, lightly jumped into the carriage and left.

And Nangong Qi looked at the carriage going away, feeling extremely angry in her chest. After so many years of business, she managed to drive away Nangong You, so why would she still be afraid of you, a stinky young girl?

The carriage drove for nearly an hour before reaching the gate of the palace. Nangong Wuwo said to Nangong Xiaoxiao: "Girl, since we're here, let's have a good talk with Emperor Chu Nan."

"With grandpa here, Xiaoxiao is not afraid." Nangong Xiaoxiao smiled, thanking Nangong Wuwu for his protection from the bottom of her heart.

"Master Nangong, Second Miss Nangong, what a coincidence." As soon as he got off the carriage, the idle king Ye Wushang walked over leisurely walking in all directions.

"King Xian seems to be really idle, he can meet him anywhere." Nangong Xiaoxiao felt that Ye Wushang was waiting at the gate of the palace on purpose.

"Hehe, Second Miss Nangong is still as quick-talking as ever. This king is named the King of Leisure, so naturally he is very leisurely. Second Miss Nangong entered the palace today to ask for another imperial edict from the emperor, right?" Ye Wushang Not annoyed, just smiled faintly, but there was a trace of sadness that couldn't be concealed in those long and narrow eyes where others couldn't see.

Coldness flashed across Nangong Xiaoxiao's eyes, and she sneered, "Could it be that your royal family is only allowed to cover the sky with one hand, so we can't do something for ourselves?"

"Don't blame the idle king, Xiaoxiao is still young, so it is inevitable that she is a little bit loyal, but the emperor really didn't think carefully about the marriage between Xiaoxiao and the prince." Nangong Wuwo interrupted their conversation, looking at the people entering and leaving the palace gate , as if asking Ye Wushang: "It seems that many people have entered the palace today."

"That's right. Today, the emperor gave a banquet to the officials, but Mr. Nangong caught up. It's the first time for the second lady to come to the palace. This king will accompany you." Ye Wushang volunteered to lead the way, but Nangong Wuwo was Le Huanxi, after all, this is the imperial palace, although he can go in, but Nangong Xiaoxiao has not been summoned, so it may be really inconvenient.

Ye Wushang accompanied the two of them to the gate of the palace, and the guards didn't make any further inquiries, the three of them entered the gate of the palace smoothly.
