Qi Nan cupped her hands in greeting to the Empress.
Because she knew that Jiujiu didn't like the Empress, Qi Nan directly said that she had something to do in the East Faction Hall and left with Jiujiu.
How could the Empress be happy that Qi Nan wanted to leave? She specially came today to see Qi Nan and Jiujiu. Now that she saw that Qi Nan was the same as before, the Empress's gaze moved to Jiujiu.
However, after taking a closer look at Jiujiu's appearance, the Empress instantly gritted her teeth and cursed in her heart, "Little devil."
Jiujiu had a beautiful oval face. Because of her young age, there were two piles of baby fat on both sides of her cheeks. Her beauty wasn't sharp to the point of hurting people's eyes, but people couldn't help but want to get close to her because of her youthfulness.
However, even with the baby fat, Jiujiu's face was still only the size of a palm. At this moment, she looked at the Empress with a pair of amber eyes, which made people feel pity for her.
Of course, what made the Empress the most unhappy was that Jiujiu was prettier than her.
Although the Empress didn't want to admit it, she had to admit that Jiujiu's appearance was indeed prettier than hers, especially when those amber eyes were staring at her. Even though she was a woman, she couldn't help but want to pity her.
As a woman, she couldn't help but want to pity Jiujiu, let alone Qi Nan, who was a man.
No wonder Qi Nan, who didn't get close to women, would keep Jiujiu and even treasure her now.
However, because of this, the Empress became angrier. Qi Nan, who she couldn't get, treasured Jiujiu. Even now, Jiujiu was tightly tugging on Qi Nan's sleeve with one hand. Jiujiu's hand didn't have much strength, but from the Empress's point of view, she could see that Qi Nan's sleeve was about to be pulled off by Jiujiu.
How could the Empress not know how bad Qi Nan's temper was? If someone else dared to pull Qi Nan's sleeve like this, they probably wouldn't be able to see the stars at night. But now, Qi Nan was still smiling, which showed how much Qi Nan doted on Jiujiu.
The Empress's heart was unhappy, so her mouth naturally became fierce. She smiled, but her mouth was particularly sharp as she stared at Jiujiu and said, "Presumably, this must be the Superintendent's favorite concubine. She looks really, but her manners are's a bit lacking."
Although she was criticizing Jiujiu for not following the rules, the Empress's face still had a faint smile, and she had the demeanor of a noble.
The Empress had just said that Jiujiu didn't follow the rules, and now she had the demeanor of a noble lady. This was clearly stepping on Jiujiu to raise herself.
Jiujiu knew that the Empress wasn't someone easy to get along with, but the matter of stepping on her to raise herself made Jiujiu inexplicably unhappy.
Jiujiu wasn't a person who could hold back her anger, so naturally she was unhappy when the Empress said this. However, in Qi Nan's eyes, she had just learned how to speak, and if she said too much, it would inevitably arouse Qi Nan's suspicion. Therefore, Jiujiu only pursed her lips and smiled, then raised her head to look at Qi Nan and said delicately, "Brother, I'm hungry."
Jiujiu's voice was soft and tender, so when Jiujiu said that she was hungry in a coquettish tone, it was like a small feather tickling one's heart, making one unable to help but want to say yes.
Qi Nan had always doted on Jiujiu, so when he heard Jiujiu say that she was hungry in a coquettish voice, Qi Nan immediately left with Jiujiu. Because they left in a hurry, they didn't even say goodbye, which made the Empress so angry that her eyes turned red.
The Empress fiercely glared at Jiujiu, stomped her feet, and walked back to the palace.
Feeling a chill on her back, Jiujiu frowned and pulled Qi Nan's sleeve harder. She moved closer to Qi Nan's ear and said, "That nanny is really scary."
Jiujiu's voice was coquettish, neither loud nor soft, so the Empress, who wasn't far from Jiujiu and Qi Nan, naturally heard Jiujiu call her nanny.
However, the only person who talked to her was the Empress, and the only person who talked to Jiujiu was the Empress. Everyone present knew who Jiujiu was referring to.
Jiujiu called her nanny, but she didn't mention her name. However, everyone present knew who Jiujiu was referring to.
Jiujiu was referring to the Empress. However, although the Empress had been in the palace for two years, she was still in her twenties. She was at the age where women were like flowers. Who wouldn't be angry when she was called a nanny?
The Empress's mind was not big, so when she was called a nanny by Jiujiu, her face instantly turned black. However, because Qi Nan had already left, and Jiujiu didn't mention her name, if she really called Jiujiu, it meant that she admitted it.
The Empress didn't show it on her face, but she secretly marked Jiujiu.
Qi Nan took Jiujiu back to the East Factory, and Chun Hua had already prepared the koi fish sent by Hua An.
After Jiujiu ate a delicious meal of koi fish, she collapsed on the soft chair in Qi Nan's study.
Jiujiu lay down on the comfortable soft chair and ate the dried fish made by Chun Hua as she sighed with her eyes closed. The days of lying down and eating dried fish after eating to her heart's content were simply too wonderful.
Soon, another two months had passed. Now, Jiujiu could speak very skillfully, and everyone in the palace knew that Jiujiu was Qi Nan's person. Therefore, even if Jiujiu went out alone, no one dared to offend Jiujiu. At most, they would just take a few more glances.
During this period of time, Qi Nan was a little busy. She was so busy that her feet didn't touch the ground every day. Moreover, she had to find time to teach the Emperor how to deal with government affairs, so she didn't even have time to accompany Jiujiu out for a stroll.
And Qi Nan treasured Jiujiu too much. She couldn't accompany Jiujiu out, so she directly detained Jiujiu in the East Factory and didn't let Jiujiu go out. It was fine for a day or two, but after a long time, Jiujiu who liked to stroll was bored to death. After Jiujiu and Qi Nan quarreled a few times, Qi Nan reluctantly agreed to let Jiujiu take Chun Hua out.
As a matter of fact, after eating breakfast, Jiujiu accompanied Qi Nan in the study for a while before pulling Chun Hua to the Imperial Garden.
Ever since Snowball disappeared for a few months, Chun Hua had always been taking care of Jiujiu. Jiujiu was good-looking and had a good temper. Sometimes, when there was something new, she would immediately think of herself. Therefore, Chun Hua was especially fond of Jiujiu and was especially concerned about Jiujiu's matters.
The scenery in the Imperial Garden was naturally very good, but if one were to ask Jiujiu where she liked the most, it would definitely be the pond with koi fish.
Ever since she ate the food that Chun Hua made with koi fish, Jiujiu liked eating koi fish.
Although koi fish didn't have much meat, it was still very satisfying to eat it. As a matter of fact, Jiujiu went straight to the koi fish pond the moment she arrived at the Imperial Garden. She was thinking about how to get a few koi fish for Chun Hua to make for her to eat.
And regarding the matter of Jiujiu liking to eat koi fish, Chun Hua was just like Hua An. She was simply heartbroken.
