Chapter 127 Dad, we will go to court together in the future
"The Queen was poisoned. It was Concubine Xian who did it." Ning Sangsang briefly told Jiang what happened in the palace.
Jiang couldn't help but sigh after hearing this: "You really can't judge a person by his appearance. The virtuous concubine looked kind and considerate, but I didn't expect her to be so vicious."
Ning Sangsang thought:
[There are so many people who cannot be judged by appearance. That black-hearted cousin is a good example. She looks pitiful and harmless, but her heart is very vicious and she even did not let go of a newborn baby.]
Hearing Ning Sangsang mention this, Jiang couldn't help but hold Ning Sangsang's hand tighter, her heart filled with hatred.
She was so nice to that woman, but that woman wanted to kill her daughter... Fortunately, her daughter was lucky enough to survive.
Ning Xiaotian saw that his wife was in a low mood, so he changed the subject and asked, "Sangsang, have you seen the emperor?"
"I saw it." Ning Sangsang looked at him and said, "Dad, we will go to court together in the future."
Ning Xiaotian: “???”
"Sangsang, what do you mean by this?" Jiang asked with a confused look on her face.
Ning Sangsang looked at Jiang and said, "The emperor said today that he would appoint me as a court lady. He said that he would issue an order tomorrow and ask me to attend court the day after tomorrow."
Mrs. Jiang: "..."
Ning Xiaotian's face was full of surprise.
"Sangsang, why did the emperor appoint you as a female official?" Ning Xiaotian, who had recovered from his surprise, looked at Ning Sangsang and asked.
Ning Sangsang said, "I saved the queen, and the emperor was very pleased. He praised me a lot, saying that I was very smart and thoughtful. He wanted to make me a female official so that I could share his worries in the future."
[I always feel that the emperor has some ulterior motive in appointing me as a female official. After all, in the Chu Kingdom, only men have been officials, and there has never been a woman in office.]
Ning Xiaotian fell silent after listening to Ning Sangsang's words. After thinking for a moment, he quickly guessed the emperor's purpose in appointing his daughter as a female official. He thought to himself that the emperor must be able to hear his daughter's voice. He wanted to hear his daughter's voice every day, so he appointed her as a female official, and then he could listen to his daughter's voice openly in the court.
Ning Xiaotian was silent for a moment before he spoke: "Sangsang, serving the emperor is like serving a tiger. When you become a court lady in the future, you must be careful with your words and actions and don't speak carelessly, lest you offend the emperor."
His daughter liked to complain in her heart, and he was really worried that she would say bad things about the emperor in her heart when she went to court, which would make the emperor angry and punish her.
Ning Sangsang nodded and said, "Don't worry, Dad. I will."
[Even if I were to be a court lady, I would just be a lazy court lady, not caring about anything, not saying anything, and just going to court every day to punch in and listen to the monks chanting.]
Ning Xiaotian: “…”
He felt that if his daughter went to court, there would be no peace in the court.
Jiang listened to her daughter's thoughts, looked at her worriedly, and reminded her, "Sangsang, when you go to court in the future, you must listen to your father."
Ning Sangsang nodded, "Mom, don't worry, it's just a court session, it's no big deal."
[Going to court is just listening to the ministers and the emperor chanting scriptures, it's not a physical job, I just took a half-day tour of the court. ]
Ning Sangsang comforted herself in her heart.
Jiang became even more worried after hearing Ning Sangsang's voice, and her brows furrowed.
Ning Xiaotian comforted her and said, "Madam, don't worry. I will take good care of Sangsang."
He thought to himself that his daughter did not criticize just anyone. She only criticized those who did something wrong. She must have criticized the emperor because he did something wrong. If the emperor did not even have this little magnanimity, he would just resign and leave the capital with his family.
Jiang listened to her husband's comfort, and her worries were relieved. She sighed and said, "I shouldn't have taken Sangsang to Weiyuan Marquis' Mansion today."
If I hadn't taken my daughter to Weiyuan Marquis' Mansion, she would not have been appointed as a female official by the emperor.
Ning Xiaotian sighed, "If I don't take Sangsang to Weiyuan Marquis's Mansion, Sangsang will be noticed by the emperor sooner or later."
Ning Sangsang saw the two sighing and looking sad, so she comforted them, "Dad and Mom, don't worry, I can be a good female official."
After saying that, her stomach started to growl. Ning Sangsang touched her stomach and said, "Mom and Dad, I'm hungry. Let's eat."
When Jiang heard that her daughter was hungry, she no longer worried about her daughter's job as a court lady, and quickly asked someone to serve dinner.
Dinner was ready, and soon a table full of delicious food was served. After learning that their daughter was brought into the palace by the Seventh Prince, Jiang and Ning Xiaotian were in no mood to stay in Weiyuan Marquis Mansion for dinner. They left Weiyuan Marquis Mansion and returned home to wait for their daughter to come back. The couple had not had dinner, so they dined with their daughter at this moment.
