She was afraid that she would wake Little Rascal up and lead the black-clothed man elsewhere. What surprised her was that the black-clothed man was on par with or even above her.

Before she came back, the black clothed man had struck out with his palm, causing a sound to flash across the sky. When the black clothed man heard the sound, he suddenly withdrew his palm and left.

When Shui Qienan heard this voice, he immediately raised his eyebrows. Shui Qianyu had made great progress in the past few days, she actually became more well-behaved in the future. Most likely, she was taught by An Lingmin.

"What are you saying elder sister? I naturally hope that elder sister will go." Shui Qianyu's smile was as gentle as ever. Shui Qiannan could no longer see the malicious intent in her eyes. During this period of time, An Lingmin had taught Shui Qianyu very well.

"Then let's go together." Shui Qiannan casually said.

"But elder sister, the women the empress has invited this time are all women, I'm afraid it wouldn't be appropriate for you to bring Little Right along." Shui Qianyu spoke again, his eyes were filled with sincerity, and he couldn't help but praise Shui Qianyu for her acting.

"What's wrong with that?" Shui Qiannan asked coldly. Upon hearing that Shui Qianyu did not want Shui Qianyu to bring him along, Xiao Jin immediately hugged Shui Qiannan tightly, saying in a huff, "Xiao Dai, don't separate from mother!"

"The little right can stay at home for now. The underwater estate is heavily guarded, and nothing can happen to the little right." Shui Qianyu persisted in her persuasion. She looked at the woman beside her and carefully inspected her surroundings.

They recalled that these were the spirit beasts that had accompanied Shui Qiannan when they returned to the capital.

Shui Qianyu came to a realization, and pointed at Yu Yu. "Xiao Jin, are you afraid of being bored staying in the Shui Mansion? You can play with this little guy. "My spirit beast Hairy Ball is the little fox you saw that day. Little Right, don't you like it a lot? I can let it play with you."

"No, Little Right wants to be with Mother!" He didn't forget to roll his eyes at Qi Yu.

"Little Right is still young, you can't leave me. If you can't bring Little Right along with you, then there's no point in going." Shui Qiannan caressed Little Right's head and comforted her, "Little Right is not afraid, Mother will not leave."

"This... "Elder sister, how can this empress's orders be ignored?" Shui Qianyu was getting a little anxious. Why did this Shui Qiannan not play according to common sense? And why did this little brat not listen to her at all?

"Why do I have to listen to her? What does she count for?" Shui Qiannan sneered. He wanted her to separate from Little Right? It would be too naive to use such a cheap trick against Little Right.

"Elder sister is right. I was inconsiderate. Since that's the case, I will bring Little Right with me to the Imperial Palace." Shui Qianyu softly said, a trace of unwillingness flashing across her eyes.

She initially wanted to separate Shui Qiannan from Little Right. Once Shui Qiannan followed her into the palace, An LingMin would bring Little Right away for the sake of playing with Little Right.

The Aquatic Manor had a secret art that allowed one to forget the past. Although father does not like Shui Qiannan, but because of Little Right's high talent, father wants to take Little Right for his own use.

Shui Hongfu and An Lingmin's thoughts were very simple. As long as they used a secret technique on Little Right, Little Right would not remember Shui Qiannan and listen to them.

"Then sister will pack up. Later, I will find sister and ride together in a carriage to the palace. Is that alright?" Shui Qianyu cautiously asked, afraid that Shui Qinan would disagree.

Shui Qianyu let out a sigh of relief when she saw Shui Qiannan nod. He then stood up and blessed Shui Qiannan. "Then little sister will take her leave first."

Shui Qianyu walked further and further away, but Shui Qiannan found her very interesting. He hated her to death, yet he had no choice but to pretend to be obedient and gentle in front of her.

Within the empress dowager's palace.

"Muhou, what are you doing?" Hou Qingyu frowned as he looked at the picture book the Empress had given him. It was filled with beautiful women.

"Look, these are all the concubines of the court officials. Do you find them pleasing to the eye?" The empress beamed as she spoke. All the women in this book had been meticulously selected by her, and her family was pure and good-natured.

"Mother, your son still doesn't want to get married." Hou Qingyu said in a gentle voice as he closed the book in his hand. He knew nothing about his mother. The woman chosen would certainly help to consolidate his position.

"Ridiculous!" The empress slapped the table and said angrily, "What do you mean you don't want to get married? Your royal brother already has several juniors and has already chosen the candidate for the crown prince's consort, what about you? "

"Wouldn't it be better if all these mothers were chosen for royal brother? Your son doesn't want to marry a girl he doesn't like. Hou Qingyu said calmly.

"You …" Hou Qingyu had always been filial and filial. However, he was unusually stubborn when it came to marriage. Even Hou Qingyu would not listen to her. The empress suppressed her anger and said, "It's rare for you to come to the palace. Go visit your imperial brother."

"Yes, your son shall take his leave." With that, Hou Qingyu left the queen's chamber to look for Hou Ziming.

"Momo, why do you think that Yu'er is so stubborn? How can there be true love in the royal family?" The Queen sighed.

Behind her, the mama consoled her, "Didn't the empress ask out with a young noble house today? The Xia Emperor has too little contact with women, that's why he disagrees. Perhaps he's interested in something today?"

"I hope so." the queen said.

Shui Qiannan and Shui Qianyu rode the carriage to the entrance of the palace. Little Right jumped down from the carriage and said, "Mother, it was too dark last time. Little Right didn't have time to see what the palace looks like."

"Now that Little Right has seen it, does it feel like the palace is very grand?" Shui Qianyu pretended to ask gently.

Xiao Jin turned his head to look at Shui Qianyu, holding his breath. Why was this annoying elder sister interrupting when he was talking to his mother? Little Right proudly said, "I don't think so. My mother and I were even more beautiful than we were in the past."

"Kids only know how to talk nonsense. You'll know it if you go in without going in." Although Shui Qianyu's tone was very gentle, her eyes were full of mockery. What kind of world could Shui Qiannan have met? He only knew how to boast.

"I'm not spouting nonsense." He didn't want to talk to Shui Qianyu any longer, so he ran over to Shui Qianyu's side with an expression that said that he didn't want to get too close to her.
