"Your Majesty, although I don't know much about this, I have heard a saying in the countryside that one must marry someone from the right family, otherwise most of them will not live as they wish. If it hadn't been for what happened today, given our status in the Nanhou Mansion, I'm afraid that Even so, I can’t reach His Highness the Third Prince.”

"Your Majesty, why don't you give your sister the status of a concubine?"

After Gu Nanqiao finished speaking, he glanced at Emperor Yong secretly. When Emperor Yong's eyes fell, he quickly withdrew his eyes and sat upright with his head lowered.

It looked like he was afraid that his demands would be too high and he would be criticized.

If it were anyone else, Emperor Yong would definitely be disgusted by such an initiative to make his sister a concubine.

After all, jealousy and fights between women were commonplace and really made him bored. Even though he had no intention of letting Nan Jiaojiao become the third princess, it didn't stop him from being disgusted.

But looking at Gu Nanqiao in front of him, he actually felt quite comfortable saying such words.

"Aren't you going to give your sister the position of concubine?" Emperor Yong still asked tentatively.

When Gu Nanqiao heard this, he immediately raised his head in surprise, "Your Majesty wants to give my sister the position of princess?"

Emperor Yong was startled.

When did he say that he would give her the position of concubine?

However, seeing the undisguised surprise in Gu Nanqiao's clear eyes made the doubts in Emperor Yong's heart dissipate, and he couldn't help but smile gently.

"You, a country girl, are quite good at climbing up the pole. Okay, this matter has been decided. Step back."

"Your Majesty, after Jiaojiao gives birth to the heir, and the third prince has not yet married the princess, can he make her the royal concubine? The mother is more valuable than the son."

Before Gu Nanqiao stood up, he looked at Emperor Yong with a pair of clear eyes and asked.

Thinking of what Doctor Gu said.

Emperor Yong nodded generously: "Okay, I agree to your request."

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty."

Gu Nanqiao smiled happily, stood up, knelt down and bowed before exiting.

Emperor Yong watched her disappear into the palace, then turned his head, looked at Eunuch Hai beside him and asked, "Xiao Haizi, what do you think of this girl?"

Eunuch Hai smiled and said, "Although this woman has little knowledge, she has a pure heart."

"Do you really think she has little knowledge?"

"Isn't it?" Eunuch Hai was confused.

"Do you still remember how the daughter of Taishi Liu met me alone for the first time?" Emperor Yong asked.

Eunuch Hai was really surprised when he thought about it seriously; "Although Miss Liu maintained good etiquette at that time, she was still so nervous that she stuttered when answering His Majesty's questions."

"All the daughters of Grand Master Liu are like this. Do you think a country girl can be more courageous and knowledgeable than her?"

"Is this old slave blind, or your Majesty, you are so powerful?" Eunuch Hai said with admiration.

"However, this girl has a pure heart and a pretty smart mind. She is a bit more pleasing to the eye than those smart people." Emperor Yong touched his chin and praised her.

Eunuch Hai was secretly shocked.

This is the first time His Majesty has praised a woman in private.

In the past, Eunuch Hai knew that the emperor's superficial praises for some noble ladies from aristocratic families were just casual praises and did not really catch the emperor's eyes.

But this time is obviously different!

Doesn't His Majesty have a crush on that...'widow'?

The smile on Gu Nanqiao's face faded as he stepped out of the Taihe Palace.

She had no intention of returning to Weiyang Palace.

I originally thought that I might take the opportunity to visit Leng Palace again.

But unexpectedly, as soon as her front feet avoided the person, her back feet met the dog man in the wheelchair again.
