After I traveled through the book, I was spoiled by five little villains

When Qin Yaoguang slowly woke up, she felt a warm touch on her right hand.

Her long eyelashes trembled slightly like butterfly wings, and then she opened her eyes.

"Your Highness."

Seeing her wake up, Nanny Deng quickly hid her worried look and smiled kindly, "Your Highness is finally awake. You must be exhausted from the journey, right?"

She did not ask Qin Yaoguang why she returned to Beijing alone, nor did she ask why she fainted at the door of her house.

As long as she returns home safely, that's more important than anything else.

Releasing Qin Yaoguang's right hand, Madam Deng said, "I'll bring you some bird's nest porridge. Eat some to fill your stomach first, then eat something else. If your highness wants to eat anything else, I'll make it right away!"

"Mommy..."

Qin Yaoguang held Nanny Deng's hand with her backhand, preventing her from leaving.

Along the way, Qin Yaoguang thought she could be strong because she had to be strong.

However, when she returned to the familiar environment and looked at Aunt Deng, who had grown up with her, she could no longer hold back the grievance in her heart.

Just like a child who can fight back with a stern face when being bullied, and won’t cry even when being hurt.

However, as soon as I get home and my mother holds my hand and asks me a question with a caring look on her face, I immediately burst into tears.

This is exactly what Qin Yaoguang is feeling at this moment.

She threw herself into Nanny Deng's arms and burst into tears.

There is no need to pay attention to any princess's etiquette, and there is no difference between master and servant.

She just wanted to have a good cry in front of this old man who loved her so much.

Nanny Deng hugged her tightly, held her hand in her left hand, and patted her back gently with her right hand.

Although their statuses were different, Nanny Deng had already treated Qin Yaoguang as her own child in her heart.

Although I dare not say it out loud, this family love is real.

Seeing her crying and sobbing, Nanny Deng felt very sad and tears welled up in her eyes.

Due to her status, she could only hold the young master quietly.

Even just hugging is already overstepping the boundaries.

But let her overstep her bounds just this once!

After a long while, Qin Yaoguang stopped crying. She felt embarrassed when she saw that Nanny Deng's clothes on her chest and abdomen were wet with her crying.

Nanny Deng didn't care and gently wiped away her tears with a handkerchief.

"Master, have some tea first."

After helping her rinse her mouth, he brought her a cup of ginseng tea to calm her mind and nourish her spirit.

Her Highness was frightened, and all she could do was take good care of her body.

After drinking ginseng tea and eating a bowl of bird's nest porridge, Qin Yaoguang slowly calmed down.

Chunfen came in with her maid and set a table full of dishes, all of which were her favorite flavors.

While arranging the dishes for her, Chunfen seemed to want to say something but stopped himself.

It was obvious that everyone was worried about her.

Qin Yaoguang cheered herself up, finished her meal, and asked a few questions about the situation in the mansion and the capital when she was not there.

Nanny Deng paid attention to all of this.

Whenever she asked, he would report the important things one by one.

The most important thing, of course, is the death of the old lady of the Cui family.

"The Ningguo Mansion posted an obituary, saying that the old lady had an old illness and caught a cold in the past few days, and died suddenly."

Chunfen brought up several sets of plain dresses for Qin Yaoguang to wear.

The old lady of the Cui family is Qin Yaoguang’s grandmother, and they have a very close blood relationship.

She is the eldest princess and does not need to wear mourning clothes. She just needs to be careful about her clothes to avoid causing gossip.

Shuangjiang came to greet her with the account book in his hand.

After Qing Bai left, everyone in the Princess's mansion was ready to welcome the master home.

But I didn't expect that she would come back at night, and she was alone.

"Put it aside for now and watch it when you have free time." Qin Yaoguang ordered.

The errand maid replied at the door: "Your Highness, someone has come from the palace. It's Nanny Zhou from Xining Palace."

Qin Yaoguang sat up straight.

Nanny Zhou is the most trusted person around the Empress Dowager, why did she come in person?

"Quick, please come quickly."

Nanny Zhou was not a outsider, so Qin Yaoguang invited her into the room directly.

"Mammy, how is our mother?" she asked anxiously.

What she was most worried about in this matter was the Empress Dowager's health, so she rushed back to the capital.

This move by the Cui family was really cruel.

Letting the old lady die after returning home from Xining Palace, isn't this telling the world clearly that the Empress Dowager forced her own mother to death?

Nanny Zhou looked worried, but was relieved when she heard this.

The blow was too great for the Empress Dowager to recover.

He had hardly eaten anything the whole day. He just sat in the pavilion in the back garden of Xining Palace, looking at the pond withered lotus leaves, without saying a word.

It was not until she heard the news that Qin Yaoguang had returned to the capital and fainted at the gate that the Empress Dowager finally spoke and asked someone to visit the eldest princess.

Nanny Zhou volunteered for this task.

When Qin Yaoguang asked about the Queen Mother, she did not answer directly, but asked on behalf of the Queen Mother: "Your Highness, how are you? The Queen Mother is worried about you."

"I am fine."

When Qin Yaoguang stood up, she pulled the skin on the inside of her thigh which was rubbed by riding a horse, and she hissed in pain.

"Is this okay?"

Madam Zhou looked at her disapprovingly and said, "Your Highness, please take a rest. I have just seen you and will be leaving soon. Your Majesty is still waiting for you."

"The injury from riding a horse is nothing serious."

How can a mere external injury compare to the pain in my heart?

The less Nanny Zhou said, the more worried Qin Yaoguang became.

She made a decision: "Mammy, please wait a moment. I will change my clothes and go to the palace with you."

She gave a series of instructions, and under Chunfen's service, she quickly changed into a dark blue dress with jade algae patterns and a plain brocade fox fur cloak.

It is not popular to wear white in the palace as it is considered unlucky.

She was dressed in a solemn and simple manner, and only wore a few hairpins and rings, mainly pearls and jade ornaments.

Before leaving, she asked Chunfen to wash the cloak she had worn back then, prepare a generous thank-you gift, and send it to the residence of Da Situ.

Xie Ruijin protected her and brought her back to Beijing. Everyone who should know this news should know it.

Instead of hiding it, it’s better to be open about it.

"I will rest in the palace tonight. Whether I can return home tomorrow depends on the current situation."

Qin Yaoguang brought Nanny Deng, who was more familiar with the Empress Dowager, into the palace and told Chunfen: "If there is anything, just come to the palace and report it."

When he was about to get on the carriage, Zeng Xiangjin came to pay his respects.

Qin Yaoguang fell into a coma due to exhaustion when he returned home. After waking up, he had no chance to summon him.

Now that he had to go to the palace again, he, as the chief steward, had to find opportunities to see his master.

"I have prepared five carts for the things to be transported to the other courtyard. Once the road is open, we will deliver them there."

Qin Yaoguang nodded: "Thank you for your hard work. I will discuss the rest when I return home."

"Yes."

After getting on the carriage, Nanny Deng massaged her hands and feet to relieve her sore muscles from riding.

Qin Yaoguang was half lying down, looking at Nanny Zhou.

"Mammy, please tell me honestly, how is the Queen Mother now?"

Nanny Zhou looked at her and always felt that there was something different about Her Highness.

The eldest princess now has an awe-inspiring aura that is irresistible.

The corners of her eyes and eyebrows are becoming more and more like the Empress Dowager.
