Chapter 1611 Imperial Palace

Chapter 1611 Imperial Palace

"Second Miss, Master is waiting for you."

Because Mu Fei Jiu is the second daughter, she would be called as the Second Miss at home.

Mu Fei Jiu's eyes lit up. There were only a few servants in the house who was responsible to take care of her and her father's daily necessities.

"I'll see him."

Mu Fei Jiu hopped to the back garden and saw her father sitting while sipping the tea. There was also a bamboo scroll placed in front of him.

"Father~!" Mu Fei Jiu called sweetly, purposely lengthening the end of her tone.

Fourth Master Mu, Mu Fei Jiu's Father, looked at his daughter and smiled helplessly. "You've grown up. How long do you want to act so childishly?"

"I don't care. I'm still my Dad's favorite girl aside from Elder Sister." Mu Fei Jiu clung to her father's arm and rubbed her head with affection.

Fourth Master Mu looked at his daughter dotingly and patted her head tenderly. "Father heard that you paid a visit to Nan Family Residence to see Second Young Master Feng. What do you think of him?"

What does she think of him?

Mu Fei Jiu blinked her eyes, turning her attention to her father. "He seems to be a talented and good person."

"Oh?" Fourth Master Mu looked at his daughter with a teasing smile. "So, do you like him?"

"Dad~!"

"Hahahaha."

There was laughter on the backyard.

Mu Fei Jiu pursed her lips and explained that Feng Family might come to propose formal marriage soon.

Fourth Master Mu looked at his second daughter and nodded in understanding. He had weak body, so he wished that his two daughters would have a good life in the future with someone to protect them.

It would be good enough for him to be able to see them reach their own happiness.

…

<Long distance away, Imperial Palace>

In the Imperial Palace, Nan Hua was staying in a separate palace. If she had to say, Emperor Yang Zhou was quite thoughtful to pick the farthest one on the west for her to stay.

It was said that this palace was usually used by the Empress Dowagers who were not favored yet still stay in the palace for some reasons. After all, most of the former Emperor's Imperial Concubines would be sent to the temple once the Emperor passed away to clear out the harem for the new emperor's concubine.

"His Majesty had a lot of Imperial Concubines." Chu Yue had inquired about the situation. "This palace is one of the few that still empty."

Nan Hua nodded.

With Emperor Yang Zhou's status, it was not strange that there were many people who wanted to marry their daughter to him. This was the custom in this era and Nan Hua couldn't possibly change anything drastically.

She was just a person, following the trajectory of history.

Changing everything drastically would come with a price. And at this moment, Emperor Yang Zhou was already changing the history through his deeds to unite the entire land.

There was no need to cause more chaos.

And could the tradition that had been embedded for so many centuries be change so easily?

That would be impossible.

That night, Nan Hua had a good rest. But in the early morning, she heard the call that she was being summoned by the Emperor.

"Miss, do you want to dress up?" Chu Yue asked carefully. She was definitely capable of dressing Nan Hua as the young miss again. But at this time, Nan Hua's identity was that of General Jun, Jun Hua.

Would it be appropriate?

"Just the light training dress will be enough." Nan Hua actually wanted to use her armor too, but considering that she's now in the palace, that would be inappropriate.

After she had finished dressing up, Nan Hua headed to the main hall and met with the other officials who had slowly came. Emperor Yang Zhou left for a considerable amount of time, so there were some works that had been delayed until his arrival.

"General Jun."

"General Jun."

The officials greeted her formally when they saw her. The rumor about how the Emperor personally granted Jun Hua the title of general had long spread. Coupled with the news of her victory along with General Xing, it was hard for them to say anything.

Say that she was unqualified?

They had to answer the question why these enemy generals were all defeated one by one so cleanly in front of General Jun.

So, they had to accept it.

Whether they wanted to or not.

Nan Hua nodded towards them before looking at Prime Minister Lan. "Prime Minister Lan, this general heard that His Majesty is looking for me?"

Prime Minister Lan looked at Nan Hua and nodded. "His Majesty had a personal request. He hoped that you could accept it, General Jun. Please follow me."

Personal request?

Nan Hua silently followed Prime Minister Lan. The morning court session hadn't started yet, so the officials were still coming and waiting. But when they heard these two's conversation, it was hard to say that they were not interested.

After all, who didn't want to know what the Emperor wanted?

If they could get close to the Emperor, there will be countless benefits they could receive in the process.

Slowly, Nan Hua arrived in another palace courtyard. She saw Emperor Yang Zhou sitting there with the eunuch busy serving him some tea and others.

"Prime Minister Lan (General Jun) greets His Majesty!"

Emperor Yang Zhou looked at the two of them and said lightly, "Rise."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The two of them stood up.

Emperor Yang Zhou's eyes landed on Nan Hua. "General Jun, Zhen had a request that only you suitable to fulfill."

Nan Hua cupped her fist. "Please say, Your Majesty. If this subject can fulfill it, this subject will do her best."

Looking at her performance, Prime Minister Lan silently clicked his tongue. This girl really knows how to act just like those old foxes…
