Chapter 13
"Your Highness..."

The old maid looked her up and down in surprise. Although she heard that the idiot princess had become smarter, she imagined that she was still a clumsy child. She did not expect that she looked very clever and even quite imposing.

She also heard about the death of Concubine Ling a few months ago. Many people discussed it. Princess Mingchen was raised by an old nanny in Huangyuan. It's getting harder.

However, unexpectedly, the national teacher came to find them today with an imperial decree, and made some arrangements. From the scale, it seems that the princess attaches great importance to it.

"what's up?"

Yueying crossed her hips displeasedly, looking like a domineering little princess.

If it weren't for the desolate scene in the deserted garden behind her, people who didn't know would really think that she is a much-loved golden branch and jade leaf.

The old lady-in-waiting said mildly:

"The national teacher ordered us to come and tailor clothes for His Highness, and prepare for the birthday banquet in half a month."

Birthday party?Yue Ying understood, it seemed that the progress of the Imperial Teacher was quite smooth, these court ladies who came here usually made clothes for the favored concubines, ordinary people could not do anything about it, there must be the emperor's intentions in it.

She pretended to be surprised, her eyes were bright, and she clapped her hands:
"That's great, come in... Nangong, you come too."

Nangong Yuheng has been watching vigilantly from the sidelines. Today, the nanny has something to go out, and he has to take good care of Yueying. He doesn't trust these unexpected guests.

However, in Yueying's eyes, his behavior was like a cat with a fizzy fur, arching its back and hissing at the strangers who came to the house. Unfortunately, it was a milk cat, with an empty posture but no lethality, and they didn't pay attention to him at all. .

Nangong Yuheng was summoned, and immediately ran over, protecting Yueying tightly, her whole body tensed.

In the future, we will have to deal with each other frequently, and the old maid casually chatted and said:

"Your Highness, this is your..."

She couldn't find a suitable word for a while, and thought about it for a while.

"Little guard?"

As soon as he said it, some undisguised laughter came from behind him, and the young court ladies covered their mouths and chuckled, because Nangong Yuheng was too thin, and even looked more protective than the princess, the word "little guard" was really inappropriate.

Nangong Yuheng's eyes widened, as if he was offended, and wanted to refute angrily, but Yueying spoke before him:
"It's my apprentice, and the national teacher personally selected it for me. It's also thanks to him that I can recover my health."

Nangong Yuheng's apprenticeship was arranged by the national teacher. He figured out that Yueying's fate was lacking, and he needed a person who matched her horoscope to make up for it, so he approached Nangong.

Since it was selected by the national teacher, the ladies of the palace immediately stopped laughing. Although they wondered what the princess's recovery had to do with this child, no one asked.

The national teacher usually lives in seclusion, and only shows up in front of the public when he presides over important events such as praying for the country or divination for the emperor. It is very mysterious in itself, and the emperor values ​​it more.

The atmosphere was a little uneasy, and everyone quietly took the measurements for Yueying.

"Your Highness, after the measurement is over, the servants will leave first."

"and many more."

Yue Ying stopped them, and the old maid frowned slightly, feeling a little displeased in her heart, but she still asked patiently:
"What orders does Your Highness have?"

"Measure Nangong as well, and make two good-looking sets and send them over by the way."

Yueying raised her chin to Nangong Yuheng who was waiting quietly, and commanded in a flat tone.

The maids were a little surprised, they looked at each other and no one moved, and finally turned their attention to the old maid who made the decision.

She froze with a face:

"Your Highness, the servants only make clothes for the master, and there is no rule of making clothes for the servants. If the ladies find out, I'm afraid the servants will not be able to explain it."

What she said was quite polite, and she was already scolding from the bottom of her heart. If those empresses and concubines heard that they were waiting in line to make clothes, they would actually be cut in line, or they would be caught by a princess in a corner, and her beggar What kind of ghost apprentice is the same, then it will explode!

Yue Ying pretended not to understand, with a naive expression on her face:

"That's right, Nangong is my apprentice, and that's your master. What's wrong with you? Did the national teacher only tell me to measure the clothes for me alone? Or do you want my apprentice to wear it at the birthday banquet?" Broken sackcloth, to show that you are not effective in doing things?"

The old palace lady choked up when she heard these rhetorical questions, because the national teacher really told them to go to Huangyuan to prepare clothes for the princess's birthday banquet, and she didn't stare and say that only the princess was allowed to measure the clothes.

At that time, the emperor will also go to the birthday banquet. If it is true as Yueying said, it will be a disgrace to the royal family!
The crime would be great!

How can those masters have so many things to do on weekdays, and they also have to take care of what a servant wears, but Princess Mingchen has a small population here, just such a poor boy, the princess is also eloquent, quick in logic, and almost gave a speech She bears a big black pot of "incompetent work".

The corner of the old lady's mouth twitched slightly:
"Your servant will measure it for him."

Yueying smiled in satisfaction, while Nangong Yuheng was surrounded by a group of women for some inexplicable reason, holding a tape measure up and down. He was very ticklish, and couldn't help laughing out loud when being touched. It stinks even more.

They came aggressively. They thought they were some unremarkable little princesses, but they were led away by the nose. When they left, they looked dingy, as if they had been devastated.

Yueying was humming in a good mood, but she couldn't understand this kind of guy who looked down on people with dog eyes.

"Master, I also want new clothes?"

Nangong Yuheng felt the aftertaste of being "tickled" on his body, so he couldn't help but scratched his neck and asked while scratching.

"It's your birthday, why do I have new clothes to wear, as if it's a festival."

In his impression, these new things are bought only during festivals, but he hardly owns any new clothes, and they are picked up by his mother or begged by his mother to sew and mend clothes for him after being worn out by others.

I didn't understand it when I was too young, but when I grow up a little bit, I will envy others for having new clothes for the holidays, and I will feel inferior and feel ashamed all day long.

Yueying glanced at him, then proudly put her hand on his shoulder and patted him vigorously:

"You are my apprentice now, the master has a mouthful of food, and the apprentice has a mouthful of food!"

Nangong Yuheng stared at her with his black eyes motionless, feeling full of heart, with an urge to hug her tightly, and he did not restrain this urge.

Children always do what they think, and Yueying is hugged by him.

"It's time for you to cut your hair again Nangong, this hair is stuck in my face, I'll give you a nice cut later, this time my skills have improved, I won't have to change to a bald head after a bad cut like last time gone."

Nangong Yuheng quickly withdrew his hands and hugged his head:
"No, I'd better let the nanny cut it for me!"

The two were laughing and laughing.
