342 Baby Nuo Want to Sit at the Same Table With Eldest Brother for Dinner Tonight!

In her dream, she walked into a warm room meant for resting and changing clothes.

The air in the room was filled with a pleasant fragrance.

However, there was a hint of strangeness in this fragrance.

Gu Nuo’er sniffed and didn’t like it.

She glanced around and saw a handsome and strong figure with his back facing her. He was supporting him against the table and panting heavily.

The wine cup on the ground beside him shattered!

Gu Nuo’er’s voice was soft and filled with curiosity. “Eldest Brother, what’s the matter with you?”

At this moment, the door behind her was pushed open with a creak.

Then, this handsome and strong man couldn’t hold on anymore and fell to the ground.

Gu Nuo’er turned around and saw a delicate-looking woman walking in nervously.

Another woman’s voice came from the door—

“Yirou, Mother will guard the door for you. Hurry up. Whether you can become a prince’s consort depends on this!”

Then, the woman beside Gu Nuo’er took a deep breath and walked towards the man as if she had made up her mind.

Gu Nuo’er suddenly woke up.

At this moment, she was being carried by Gu Yihan and walking along the palace path.

The emperor didn’t even have time to change out of his court clothes. When he heard that his precious daughter had returned to the palace, he quickly abandoned his trusted officials in the imperial study and went to pick up the child.

Gu Yihan lowered his eyes and saw that his daughter had woken up. He smiled and said, “Baby Nuo, did Father wake you up because I walked too quickly?”

Gu Nuo’er looked around, her big eyes still filled with a hint of sleepiness, making her eyes look misty.

Noble Consort Qiao followed on the left, followed by a group of palace maids and eunuchs.

The child rubbed her eyes. “Father…”

When she spoke, her voice was soft and had a unique childish tone.

“Is Eldest Brother back?”

Gu Yihan was stunned for a moment before laughing heartily. “You little fellow, how are you so smart? Father hasn’t even said anything and you already know that the first prince has returned?”

Noble Consort Qiao was rather surprised. “I didn’t even know. How did Baby Nuo know?”

Gu Nuo’er scratched her chubby cheek and said in a muffled childish voice, “Oh, Baby Nuo and Eldest Brother’s hearts are connected. Of course I know!”

Noble Consort Qiao said, “Hasn’t His Highness been supervising the construction of the waterway? Why did he suddenly come back? I haven’t had the chance to tell Her Majesty this good news.”

Gu Yihan chuckled. “Perhaps it’s because of the heavens’ blessing, but the excavation of the waterway went very smoothly. The local craftsmen were very fast and had already finished building the waterway from Yi State to Chong State.

“He came back to report this and had just arrived in the capital last night. I had him have a good rest for a day. Tonight, we’ll welcome both him and the Grace Defender Duke together!”

Noble Consort Qiao pinched Gu Nuo’er’s fair and tender hand. “In that case, Your Majesty, you have to let His Highness stay in the capital for a while. It’s really tough to keep drifting outside. Moreover, Baby Nuo hasn’t had the chance to spend time with His Highness since she was born.”

Gu Nuo’er raised her chin delicately, her eyes bright and lively. “Baby Nuo wants to sit at the same table as Eldest Brother for dinner tonight!”

It was soon evening.

Wanyin and Wanxuan were skillful and chose a red dress with sprinkled bits of gold color for Gu Nuo’er.

Her skin was fair and delicate, to begin with. After putting it on, she looked like a ball of colorful clouds walking.

Her soft black hair was tied into two buns with a pair of small butterfly tassels. She looked very lively and cute.

The welcoming banquet was held in the largest palace in the palace, the Xiangli Palace.

The Xiangli Hall was built on an island in the palace’s Penglai Lake and could only be reached by boat.
