Chapter 1458 The Empress Dowager's Sister, Mrs. Hou of Nanzhou

Xia Hongmo was silent for a moment, and then said in a slightly lower voice: "I am just such a precious daughter as Baoer."

"Nonsense," the queen mother said seriously, "Qiyue is your daughter just like Pianpian."

"That's different. Bao'er has been with me since she was three years old. The words she wrote and the books she read were all taught and guided by me. It can be said that Bao'er was brought up by my son."

"She is smart and smart, and she is different from most children. Although I have many children, I only prefer her."

The Queen Mother sighed calmly.

She could understand Xia Hongmo's mood.

"But you can't obstruct Bao'er's intentions too much. She is about to reach her age, and she will soon be a big girl. As a father, you can't hinder her."

"The girl has a delicate mind, and Bao'er is smart. She knows whether she should like this person. From now on, you should stop meddling in her affairs with the national teacher."

Xia Hongmo was a little reluctant: "Mother, this..."

The Empress Dowager straightened her face, her phoenix eyes revealed majesty: "What is this? You don't even listen to Aijia's words?"

Xia Hongmo is usually a vigorous and resolute emperor.

But in front of his mother, he must also be a filial son.

He could only nod his head and frowned in distress, but suddenly remembered something.

"Mother, my son can promise you, and I won't care about Bao'er and the national teacher in the future. But you have to promise your son one thing."

The queen mother raised her thin eyebrows: "Why, do you still want to negotiate terms with Ai's family?"

Xia Hongmo smiled lightly: "I don't dare, I just hope that the queen mother will be fair. Since you asked your son to do this, you have to listen to me."

The queen mother stared at him: "Tell me, what do you want Aijia to do."

"Come back to the palace with us and take good care of your life. Just listen to Bao'er and let her and Imperial Physician Guo take care of your body."

After the Queen Mother heard this, she was about to shake her head immediately.

Xia Hongmo folded his arms quickly, and said leisurely: "If you disagree, then I will definitely intervene in Bao'er's affairs in the future."

"The queen mother knows my temperament, how can I just give away my precious daughter, and not make things difficult for the national teacher a thousand times?"

"When Bao'er is sad and tears, I will regret it too much. Why don't the mother return to the palace with us early and look at the son!"

The queen mother bowed her head, thought for a moment, and then sighed heavily.

"Okay."

She took out two letters from under the pillow beside her and handed them to Xia Hongmo.

"Look at this again."

Xia Hongmo held it in his hand and looked at it. These two letters were written by one person, that is, the Queen Mother's own sister.

Back then, of the two sisters, one entered the palace, the other married far away in Nanzhou, and now she is the wife of the Marquis of Nanzhou.

The grandson has already spared his knees and enjoyed his old age in peace.

But the letter was full of pleading words.

It turned out that the little grandson of the queen mother's own sister is now fourteen or fifteen years old.

She is also her only direct grandson, a flirtatious bastard who has been raised since she was a child.

A few months ago, even in the busy market, he clashed with others and beat one person to death!
Originally, the incident happened in Nanzhou, and the Marquis of Nanzhou is a well-known local family, so he could suppress the news by raising his hand.

However, the young master who was beaten to death did not come from a low family background.

Their family clamored for Nanzhou Hou to give an explanation.

The Marquis of Nanzhou received news that the imperial court would soon send imperial envoys to the states and counties in North Vietnam to inspect on behalf of the emperor.

If she knew about her grandson beating someone to death, she would definitely arrest him and bring him to justice.

Therefore, Mrs. Nanzhou Hou had no choice but to write a letter to ask for help from her own sister whom she hadn't had much contact with for more than ten years.
