Xu Nuanwen had thought more than Dong Shu, so when the Old Madame Xu said this, she immediately understood the meaning behind these words.

If there was really something going on in the capital, her mother would probably arrange for people to send Yuanxi away. Although Yuanxi was just a lady, she was the only blood of her third brother at that time.

This time's matter was nothing compared to the others. If they truly failed, it would be a huge disaster for their entire clan.

Thinking to this, Xu Nuanwen smiled lightly: ”Mother is right. Sister-in-law is bringing Yuanxi with her into the palace this time, and it just so happens that it's going to be cold in the capital after a while.

Hearing Aunt Sister's words, Dong Shu nodded her head immediately.

Seeing that Dong Shu agreed to this matter, the Old Madame Xu and Xu Nuanwen did not speak anymore.

Dong Shu's movements were quick, she decided to enter the palace to see the Queen, and got someone to send a message.

This time, the Empress Hu did the same as usual. After receiving the news, he immediately sent a message to Dong Shu.

Dong Shu was also used to the Empress Hu treating him in such a way, so because they were going to enter the palace the next morning, Dong Shu had personally brought Yuanxi to sleep the night before.

Under Dong Shu's watch, Yuanxi became extremely obedient. As the sky turned dark, Dong Shu fed her half a bowl of goat's milk, changed her diapers, and washed her body. Then, Yuanxi obediently allowed Ling Xiang to watch her play with her ball while waiting for Dong Shu.

A quarter of an hour later, Dong Shu was also done washing her hair. She climbed onto the bed and laughed happily, throwing down her beloved cloth ball before turning around and throwing herself into Dong Shu's embrace while giggling.

”Good girl Yuanxi, sleep early tonight. Tomorrow morning mother will bring you to the palace to visit the Empress.” As she spoke, Dong Shu lowered her head and gently kissed Yuanxi on the forehead. Then, she closed her eyes slightly, reached out and gently patted Yuanxi's back, as if she was going to sleep.

Now, Yuanxi rarely slept with him. Even if Xu Shiqiu was not at home, she would only sleep with him once every two to three days.

So every time she slept with Dong Shu, she would be very obedient. The moment she saw her mother close her eyes to sleep, she would obediently close them to sleep as well.

After Yuanxi slept soundly in his arms, Dong Shu finally opened her eyes and looked at Yuanxi who was in his arms.

Seeing Yuanxi's soundly asleep, the corner of Dong Shu's mouth could not help but curl into a faint smile.

Yuanxi was getting easier to carry around in her house. Every time she closed her eyes to sleep, she would obediently follow suit and sleep, not making a fuss about her at all.

Thinking up to here, Dong Shu suddenly started to miss Xu Shiqiu a bit. If his husband knew that Yuanxi was like this, he would definitely put her on his shoulder and play around for a while before letting it go.

Thinking that she would be home in a few more days, Dong Shu finally revealed a smile. This was the first time she had separated from her husband for so long.

On the morning of the second day, before the sky brightened, Dong Shu woke up.

Usually, at this time, she would have to hug the wet nurse in her arms and drink milk in order to wake up. But today, when she woke up, she realised that the one lying beside her was her mother, so she supported her fat body and climbed directly onto her mother's body.

Dong Shu woke up because of Yuanxi's disturbance. Opening her eyes, she saw Yuanxi happily crawling on her body, and she couldn't help but let out a laugh.

Yuanxi was kissed to the point that she began to giggle. The mother and daughter then lost all sleepiness and directly got out of bed to wash up.

When Yuanxi was washing up and grooming, Yuanxi's wet nurse fed her while hugging him, and then helped him clean up her little face and hands before she quietly left.

Now that Yuanxi was getting bigger and bigger, the amount of supplementary food Dong Shu was feeding her was getting more and more, and the wet nurse was getting more and more useless.

If not for the fact that Yuanxi still had her milk addiction when she woke up everyday, she might have already left the Xu Family.

The mother and daughter pair were wearing the same colored dress today. After it was autumn, Dong Shu made a few new dresses, although the clothes were not the most luxurious, but they were very well made, and seemed to be extremely exquisite.

After entering the palace, Empress Hu saw that Dong Shu and her daughter were wearing the same colored dress, and immediately laughed: ”Every time I see you two dressed like this, I am very happy in my heart. ”It seems like if I have the right materials in the future, I'll have to make you dresses.”

Empress Hu does not lack good things, those fresh and tender colored materials, although Emperor Ruikang knew that Empress Hu would not be able to use them, he still sent them over, all for the sake of Empress Hu giving them to others.

Upon hearing Empress Hu's words, Dong Shu knew that she was prepared to give him the last good item, and immediately knelt down to pay her respects.

When Dong Shu was called out, she immediately brought Yuanxi up to her.

Yuanxi had entered the palace many times now. Although she was still young and could only remember a few things, she was already very familiar with the Empress Hu's aura and appearance.

After being directly stuffed into the Empress Hu's embrace by Dong Shu, she obediently leaned into her embrace, her eyes staring at the specially made milk tea in front of Empress Hu.

Empress Hu liked the look of Yuanxi who was able to eat the most. Yuanxi stared at the milk tea in front of him and immediately ordered her men to cook a bowl of goat's milk for him.

”Yuanxi, hold on. After saying that, Empress Hu looked towards Dong Shu, who had something to say.

In fact, the Empress Hu had guessed why Dong Shu had entered the palace today. Although His Majesty hadn't invented the decree, the news about the palace couldn't be hidden from her.

only felt that it was funny.

Dong Shu did not say anything, and Empress Hu did not say anything either. Once the milk was done cooking, she took a small silver spoon and fed the milk to Yuanxi, spoonful by spoonful.
