Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Chapter 665
"Your Majesty, I only want my child to be safe, nothing else."

Xiao Yuner expressed her greatest wish.

"I will naturally grant you this wish. From now on, all the expenses of Licui Palace will be doubled, and Concubine Xiao Shu will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold, two large boxes of gold and silver jewelry, one thousand pieces of brocade cloth, and thirty diamonds..."

"In addition, ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send some precious supplements, and also ask the chief eunuch of the imperial kitchen to come to Licui Palace every day to consult with the empress, and let her eat whatever she wants..."

Lu Hao immediately awarded the reward and added a lot of things.

"Thank you for the reward, Your Majesty. However, I am not so delicate. You are so busy with government affairs, so don't worry about me."

Xiao Yun'er is also sensible.

"By the way, for such an important happy event, I must inform my father-in-law and prepare gifts. Well... Concubine Shu, do you want to go home and tell your parents the good news in person?"

Lu Hao is really concerned about chaos.

"I want to go back, but I want the emperor to accompany me."

Xiao Yuner readily agreed.

"Come here, let the Ministry of Internal Affairs prepare a gift. I will go back to my parents' home with Concubine Shu to announce the good news."

Lu Hao ordered loudly.

Soon, Commander Yi Ruyan of the Imperial Guard led a large group of troops to escort the emperor and Concubine Xiao Shu out of the palace and go home to announce the good news.

As for the gifts, they were also full of several large cars. It wasn’t that Mr. Liu from the Ministry of Internal Affairs had prepared anything. Anyway, there were a lot of valuable things.

When the Xiao family learned that the emperor and his daughter were coming, the whole family came to the door to greet them.

Xiao Hengnai is Xiao Yun'er's father. He is now a cabinet minister of the empire. He can participate in the highest-level meetings of the empire and is considered the core of power in the empire.

Xiao Yun'er's brother Xiao Ze, on the other hand, works under Tang Yu, the Minister of Household Affairs. He doesn't have great power, but he is also a fat errand.

"Greetings to the Emperor! Greetings to Concubine Shu!"

Everyone in the Xiao family knelt on the ground to greet the two nobles.

"Master Xiao, we are all members of our family, so don't be so polite. Let's all get up."

Lu Hao supported Xiao Yun'er and slowly got down from the car.

"Father, mother, elder brothers and sisters-in-law..."

Concubine Xiao Shu was polite and greeted her quickly.

"Master Xiao, I am here this time to announce the good news. Concubine Shu is pregnant with my flesh and blood. This is a gratifying and congratulatory event. I am very happy. If the Xiao family needs any reward, you can come to me. explain."

Lu Hao said loudly.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Concubine Shu!"

Xiao Heng and his family congratulated him again.

"The Emperor has sent so many gifts, so why do the Xiao family need any rewards? I just hope that Concubine Shu will take care of herself and continue the bloodline of the royal family."

Xiao Heng added loudly.

"Okay, let's go into the room and talk. Your Majesty, please come inside!"

Xiao Yun'er's eldest brother Xiao Ze interrupted.

"Yes, yes, your Majesty, please come inside!"

Xiao Heng quickly added.

The Xiao family had actually received the news of Xiao Yun'er's pregnancy half an hour ago and had already been pleasantly surprised. Therefore, even if they were very excited, they concealed it very well.

Only Mrs. Xiao seemed a little nervous, holding her daughter's hand to greet her.

After the group entered the hall, tea and snacks were immediately served, and the family started chatting while eating.

"Xiao Ze, how are you doing in the household department?"

Lu Hao asked casually.

"Reporting to the emperor, there are not many affairs in the household department, and the ministers can still handle them."

Xiao Ze responded loudly.

"Let's see. The Minister of the Ministry of Finance is busy with affairs and has been lacking a deputy position. I will promote you to the position of Minister of the Ministry of Finance. What do you think?"

Lu Hao immediately appointed Xiao Ze an official.

Of course, this was for Xiao Yun'er's sake, otherwise, how could he have climbed to the position of Minister of Household Affairs in one fell swoop.

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Concubine Shu!"

Xiao Ze quickly knelt down to thank him.

"Your Majesty, can eldest brother do it? You just promote him casually?"

Xiao Yuner interrupted.

"Why can't you do it? The Ministry of Revenue is only in charge of money, so there's nothing else it can't do. I'm happy today, so I'm going to use nepotism."

Lu Hao grinned. "Thank you, Your Majesty, for taking care of my son!"

Xiao Heng quickly thanked him.

"Master Xiao is too polite. Yun'er's eldest brother is my eldest brother. There is nothing wrong with being a minister of household affairs. Besides, there is that boy Tang Yu who is supporting me."

Lu Hao smiled calmly.

"The Emperor's love is so great that our Xiao family can't repay it. Ze'er, you must do your best to complete your errands."

Mrs. Xiao interjected.

"Don't worry, mother, I will definitely work hard."

Xiao Ze replied loudly.

"Master Xiao, you are now the Superintendent of Shanglinyuan, mainly responsible for the empire's livestock cultivation. This time the Chimir Prairie is integrated into the empire's territory, the territory under your jurisdiction will be wider. Do you have any detailed plans?"

Lu Hao asked with a smile.

"Weichen has already made plans. How about we go to the study and chat slowly?"

Xiao Heng responded quickly.

"Okay, then... Yun'er, you talk to your mother, and I won't disturb you anymore."

Lu Hao stood up and left with Mr. Xiao.

He was worried that no one would be able to let go of her here. It was rare for Xiao Yun'er to go back home, and there must be many whispers that she wanted to talk to her mother about.

Sure enough, after the emperor left, the atmosphere here suddenly became lively.

Especially Xiao Yun'er's sister-in-law, who had been silent just now, was now excited with her sister-in-law.

"Yun'er, the emperor is so kind to you! I'm so jealous of you!"

Xiao Yun'er's sister-in-law said with a smile.

"Sister-in-law, I heard that my eldest brother just bought you a pair of gold bracelets. Isn't it bad for you?"

Xiao Yuner joked.

"What's the point? It's just for the sake of my son's face."

The sister-in-law muttered.

"By the way, where are my two little babies?"

Xiao Yun'er looked around, trying to find the two children of her eldest brother and sister-in-law.

"Worried about disturbing the emperor, I locked them in the room."

The eldest brother responded.

"How can we lock them up? Let them come out and say that aunt is here to see them."

Xiao Yuner said with a smile.

"Then I'll bring them over."

Xiao Ze went out.

"Daughter, the Emperor loves you so much and treats our Xiao family so well, it means that the Emperor likes you very much! You must take care of your health and give birth to a son and a half for the Emperor. Only then can you be worthy of the Emperor!"

Mrs. Xiao warned.

"Don't worry, mother, I will definitely protect the child."

Xiao Yuner comforted.

"Where are you pregnant? Your sister-in-law is very experienced. Let her talk to you later..."

Mrs. Xiao is very satisfied with this daughter-in-law.

"Do you have any experience? Mother told me some things I need to pay attention to. Let me tell you! First of all..."

The sister-in-law immediately started explaining.

As someone who has given birth to a son and a daughter, the sister-in-law tried her best to explain to Xiao Yun'er the important points, as well as some taboos and taboos.

After a while, Xiao Ze walked in with his son and daughter.

The eldest son was named Xiao Feng, and the youngest daughter was named Xiao Han. As soon as they saw their aunt, they immediately threw themselves into her arms.

"Little aunt, I miss you so much!"

Xiao Han is only five years old this year and is so cute.

"Auntie misses you too. Auntie didn't bring many things. She will give you a diamond for each of you."

Xiao Yuner said with a smile.
