"It's very simple. I just want to know about this Jiang Ruyan.”Nalan Youyou's eyes were distant as she looked at the door, thinking about something.
The man in black looked at Nalan Youyou, who seemed to be thinking about something, and the lips under the veil curled up slightly. "That's good. I'll see you again tomorrow.”As he spoke, the person's toes slightly pushed against the ground and he flew out. The tightly shut door and window seemed to have never seen anyone.
Nalan Youyou saw that she had already left. She stretched lazily and walked to the bed to sleep peacefully. Because they had slept a little late the day before, the next day, when the sun was high up in the sky, the families of the officials in Jingdou were still very quiet.
Nalan Youyou only opened her eyes lazily when it was noon. She saw Yuejun looking at her excitedly.
Nalan Youyou was stunned. She looked at Yuejun, who was staring at her, and asked in surprise," What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"”
Yuejun kept smiling. The smile on her face did not disappear, but instead became even wider. "Miss has a happy occasion. Can you guess?"
"The person who sent the reward has arrived. Aiya, why didn't you wake me up earlier?”Nalan Youyou thought for a moment and immediately said. After saying that, she quickly sat up and let Yuejun dress her up.
Yuejun smiled happily. She did not stop her hand movements but shook her head and said," Miss, it's not that I don't want to wake you up. They just told me not to tell you when Miss wakes up. Besides, Miss, you only guessed half of it. You can guess the other half." However, you might not be able to guess it.”At this point, Yuejun turned her head and looked at Nalan Youyou mischievously with a mysterious smile.
Yuejun's smile stunned Nalan Youyou. She looked at Yuejun in surprise and asked," You said that I only guessed half of it right? What's the other half?"
"Miss, guess!" Yuejun smiled mischievously. It was obvious that she didn't want to tell Nalan Youyou so much. She kept trying to remember Nalan Youyou's guess.
Nalan Youyou stood up and helped Yuejun put on her clothes and accessories. She was not obvious about Yuejun's words at all. Other than the person who gave her the reward, what else could there be? Could it be?
"Beiming Ye is here, right?" Nalan Youyou's expression changed, and her pretty face turned black.
Yuejun looked at Nalan Youyou in surprise and smiled happily." Wow, Miss, you're really amazing. You can even guess it!" Miss, guess what the Second Prince is here for.”
Nalan Youyou looked at Yuejun with a dark face. Yuejun was stunned. Shouldn't she be happy that the Second Prince had come? Just look at Third Young Miss and you would know. But why did Young Miss not only look unhappy but also rather disgusted? Could it be that he was wrong?
Beiming Ye definitely didn't come here for anything good, but he didn't know why he came this time. Nalan Youyou pondered for a long time and was shocked. Could it be that he came for that matter? If that was true, then it would be troublesome!
Nalan Youyou's expression darkened when she thought of this. There was no joy on her pretty face at all. Her face was darker than the bottom of a pot.
"Yuejun, tell me why Beiming Ye came to my residence!”
"Oh, it's like this. The second prince brought many boxes over and said that they were here to deliver betrothal gifts. Now, the old master is talking to the second prince about this matter in the hall.”Yuejun didn't understand why Nalan Youyou's expression would be so ugly, especially when she heard that the Second Prince was here to deliver the betrothal gifts. Her expression was as dark as the sky before a storm.
"Did Master agree?" Nalan was greatly alarmed. This was what he feared! Just now, she was thinking that Beiming Ye should have come for this matter. He probably wanted to marry her because he couldn't face her. In this way, what he did yesterday was no longer a wishful thinking but a good story about her love.
"Humph! Beiming Ye, you have a good plan.”Nalan Youyou sneered in her heart. You're really good at calculating. You've calculated everything. Did you calculate that I'm no longer the silly Nalan Youyou from back then?
"I don't know yet. It's just that when I came over, Old Master hadn't agreed yet.”
"Let's go! Let's go over and take a look now!" When he heard Yuejun say that Nalan Peiyi hadn't agreed yet, there was still a chance. If Nalan Peiyi had agreed, he would have to put in more effort.
After saying that, Nalan Youyou led Yuejun and no longer cared about her image. She held her dress and jogged to the front hall. "Father! When her daughter heard that a distinguished guest had arrived, she specially came to take a look.”Nalan Youyou immediately shouted before she even reached the front hall, as if she was afraid that the people in the hall did not know that she had arrived.
Nalan Jingjing said unhappily," Eldest Sister is indeed a newly promoted third-grade female official. She actually made the Second Prince and his father-in-law wait here for so long.”
The eunuch glanced at Nalan Jingjing with a hint of displeasure in his eyes." This is the Second Prince's intention. Besides, Miss Nalan is now a third-grade female official servant. It's fine. Second Miss, don't say that."”
Nalan Youyou didn't know that this had already attracted countless discussions. Nalan Youyou walked into the front hall and saw the Second Prince sitting in the hall. She knelt down respectfully and bowed.
Beiming Ye looked at Nalan Youyou with heartache. He ignored the gazes of the others present and personally walked down to help Nalan Youyou up.
However, Nalan Youyou managed to dodge it inadvertently. Beiming Ye's hands caught nothing and his hands froze in mid-air. His expression changed slightly for a moment before he withdrew his hands in embarrassment. She stood at the side and looked at Nalan Youyou with a gentle expression, her eyes filled with love and affection.
"Nalan Youyou greets Eunuch. How could Nalan Youyou allow the Second Prince and Eunuch to wait here?”Nalan Youyou was respectful and polite. She was not arrogant because she was a third-grade female official. She thought highly of herself.
The father-in-law stood respectfully at the side. When he saw Nalan Youyou bow to him, he hurriedly returned the bow. Putting aside Nalan Youyou's position as a third-grade female official, the Second Prince had come here today to give betrothal gifts. In the future, this Eldest Miss Nalan might very well be the Second Prince's wife, so she had to be more polite.
"Eunuch, please take a seat. May I know why Eunuch has come today?”Nalan Youyou looked at the eunuch and asked.
"Ke ke, this servant doesn't have time to sit now. This servant has come today for something. Miss Nalan, please accept the decree." The eunuch did not sit down and walked to the center of the main hall. He coughed lightly and said with a serious expression.
"Nalan Youyou accepts the decree." After Nalan Youyou knelt down, everyone except the Second Prince knelt down to receive the edict.
" His Majesty has decreed that Nalan Youyou is now a third-grade female official. She has been specially bestowed with twelve rolls of high-grade silk and six pairs of top-grade jade ruyi…" The eunuch held the decree in his arms and kept reciting the decree. Rows of eunuchs and serving girls kept walking in until the hall of the Nalan residence was filled with space.
Nalan Yanwan looked at those things with envy, while the old madam's face was filled with greed, almost drooling, her blurry eyes flashing with greed.
After about 15 minutes, it finally stopped. The father-in-law stretched out his hand and smiled like a flower." Eldest Miss Nalan, please stand up."”
"Thank you, Eunuch." Nalan Youyou gave Yuejun a look. Yuejun immediately understood and shoved a purse into her father-in-law's hand, avoiding the others. The father-in-law didn't delay and accepted it with a smile.
Seeing that the matter had been settled, it was naturally time to leave. The eunuch led his group and left.
Now, only the people from the Nalan Residence and the Second Prince were left in the hall.
Nalan Youyou looked at the Second Prince with an indifferent expression. The distance in her expression was self-evident. "I wonder what other matters the Second Prince has? If there's nothing else, should I leave?”
Nalan Peiyi's expression changed when she heard Nalan Youyou's impolite words. She shot a warning glare at Nalan Youyou." Youyou, how can you say that? It's our Nalan Residence's honor that the Second Prince is here. How can you say that?"”
"It's fine." The Second Prince looked at Nalan Youyou with a harmless expression and smiled gently." I like Youyou's straightforward personality even more.”
Nalan Youyou looked at the disgusted Beiming Ye and was not interested." Second Prince, please call me by my full name. Otherwise, it will cause a misunderstanding."”
Beiming Ye's expression was extremely awkward. Why was Nalan Youyou so hostile towards him? "Youyou, why do you say that? I came here today to propose marriage.”
"Replying to Your Highness, this marriage should have been arranged by my parents, but today, I am already a third-grade female official of the current dynasty, so this marriage should be decided by myself. Father, am I right?"
Nalan Peiyi looked at Nalan Youyou. Nalan Youyou's straightforward way of speaking made Nalan Peiyi break out in a cold sweat for her. However, Nalan Youyou was right. She was not only the daughter of the Nalan family, but also a third-grade female official. Naturally, Nalan Youyou had to decide on her own marriage.
"Yes, that's right." Nalan Peiyi nodded helplessly and decided not to care about this matter. Zhuang Huaijin looked at the Second Prince and felt an itch in her heart. If only the Second Prince's proposal today was her daughter, Jingjing. However, the Second Prince had come to propose marriage to Nalan Jingjing. Zhuang Huaijin's face was filled with hatred. Seeing Zhuang Huaijin's expression, Nalan Jingjing smiled considerately and carefully walked to Zhuang Huaijin's side. She whispered something to him, and Zhuang Huaijin immediately beamed with joy. There was no trace of displeasure on her face.
"Did Second Prince hear that this minister's marriage can only be decided by this minister himself?”Nalan Youyou looked at the Second Prince with disdain. She really didn't want to talk to him. Every word she said would make Nalan Youyou hate him even more.#
