With the system traveling through time, the queen always becomes a mother painlessly

The best thing to do now is to change the subject.

He smiled and said, "Today, many talented people have come. I wonder if there will be a masterpiece that will be widely circulated today."

Then he thought of something and turned his attention to his friend beside him.

"I remember the last outstanding work was a poem you wrote. Five years have passed in the blink of an eye. Although you have held many poetry competitions in Liuyun County during the four years, and there have been first, second and third place winners in each poetry competition, you have never written a poem that has become popular among the people."

"Would you like to do one today?"

Nan Yu put down the teacup, shook his head and said, "No, I have rarely had time to write poetry in the four years I have been in Liuyun County. I am afraid that my skills have declined, so I will not show off my ugliness."

He Yunqing and the others knew that he was being modest and did not want to write poetry, so they did not continue the topic.

He Yunxi sat aside with a depressed look on his face, feeling even more uncomfortable listening to their conversation.

She was so embarrassed in front of Brother Nan Yu today that she even wanted to die.

Nan Yu happened to see her annoyed expression and smiled. This little girl has been quirky since she was a child, but she became less talkative as she grew up. Unexpectedly, she is very much like she was when she was a child.

The poetry reading ended, but the day did not go as He Yunxi had expected. When she returned home, she had a bitter face and went straight back to the yard.

"Ugh!"

Another sigh sounded, Xiaoyu walked over to look at the person lying on the table in a daze, and said helplessly: "Miss, this is the 585th time you have sighed tonight."

"Isn't it just that I didn't talk to Second Young Master Nan today? It's okay, there will be opportunities in the future."

"But Brother Nanyu is the county magistrate of Liuyun County. He might have to go back after the Chinese New Year. Oh no, he might not even be able to finish the Chinese New Year. How can he have so many opportunities?"

Xiaoyu's eyes turned and she said, "Then let me ask around tomorrow. As long as Second Young Master Nan goes out, we'll go out and meet him by chance."

He Yunxi raised her eyes and said, "Xiaoyu, thank you for your help."

Xiaoyu patted her chest and assured, "Don't worry, young lady, I will leave everything to you."

But in the next few days, Nan Yu either stayed in the mansion, went to Ruan's mansion, or went to the palace to meet several princes and princesses. Even if He Yunxi wanted to meet him by chance, there was no way.

And Xiaoyu heard some very terrible news.

"Miss, something's wrong, Miss, something's wrong..." Xiaoyu ran into the room hurriedly, her face full of anxiety.

He Yunxi stood up and grabbed Xiaoyu's arm anxiously, "What's wrong?"

"Miss, I heard that many ladies want to marry into the Prime Minister's Mansion. In the past few days, many ladies have come to the Prime Minister's Mansion to inquire about the news!"

Now, Nan Yu is the only unmarried person in the Prime Minister's Mansion, so it is obvious for whom he came.

Although Nan Yu was only a county magistrate, his ability was not limited to being a county magistrate. At that time, the emperor wanted to confer him a fifth-rank official title, but he refused. He asked to be the county magistrate of the impoverished Liuyun County.

Today, Liuyun County is thriving under his governance and has become a well-known wealthy county, with a tendency to drive the development of other nearby counties.

The emperor praised him a lot.

If he was willing, the emperor would have summoned him back to the capital to promote him long ago.

What's more, he is the prime minister's son, his brother is a general, his sister is the queen, and his nephew is the prince, and they all want to marry him.

"So what was the result? Did the Prime Minister's Mansion have any intention of marrying into the families that went there?"

"I haven't heard of that. Most people say that the Prime Minister and his wife respect the Second Young Master Nan's wishes and say that as long as he likes it, it's fine."

After Xiaoyu finished speaking, He Yunxi breathed a sigh of relief.

There is still time.

But time is running out, so she has to seize the opportunity and try to make Brother Nan Yu like her.

The next day, she tricked Mrs. He into visiting the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Mrs. He and Ruan Yurou were already good friends and would visit each other on weekdays. She was tricked by the little maid into going to the Prime Minister's Mansion the next day.

On the day of visiting the Prime Minister's Mansion, He Yunxi got up early and dressed up. When Mrs. He saw her, she praised her, "My Xier is getting more and more beautiful."

He Yunxi hugged Mrs. He's arm and said sweetly, "It's all thanks to mother for giving her such a beautiful appearance."

Mrs. He smiled as she was praised. "Alright, alright, stop joking. Let's go! I called the Prime Minister's Mansion this morning. It would be rude if we arrived late."

"Well, mother, let's go!"

He Yunxi also didn't want to give the person she liked the impression that she was not punctual.

Nan Luo took his wife and children out shopping, and Nan Hui also went out for something. Only Ruan Yurou and Nan Yu were left in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Mrs. He, Yunxi, please come in and sit down." Ruan Yurou walked over and took Mrs. He's hand with a smile.

Nan Yu followed behind Ruan Yurou with a gentle expression, "Junior greets Madam He and Sister Yunxi."

Although He Yunxi's heart was still beating fast and she was shy, she had prepared herself mentally before and knew she couldn't hide anymore, so she bowed her body shyly.

"Yunxi greets the Prime Minister's wife, Brother Nanyu."

Mrs. He and Ruan Yurou sat together and chatted, while He Yunxi sat next to Mrs. He, lowering his head uncomfortably.

She could feel the occasional gazes from the opposite side on her, but she didn't dare to look up.

She cursed herself in her heart for being a coward more than once, but she was just like this coward and there was nothing she could do no matter how hard she pushed herself.

Ruan Yurou looked at the two bored young men and women standing nearby and said with a smile, "Yuer, I think you and Yunxi are bored staying here. The weather is nice today, why don't you take Yunxi to the mansion for a walk!"

"Okay, mother." Nan Yu agreed, with a smile on her lips as she looked at the quail-like little girl opposite her, and said with a smile, "Sister Yunxi, I will take you to visit the mansion!"

He Yunxi raised her head and glanced at the young man. Her face felt hot at his gentle gaze and she quickly looked away and stood up.

"Okay." She said one word and left.

Nan Yu followed behind and left.

Ruan Yurou and Madam He looked at the two men's backs as they left. One was tall, the other short, both dressed in white, and they looked quite a match.

But they both had their own ideas.

Ruan Yurou felt that even if her son liked the girl, Yunxi was only eighteen years old, five years younger than her son, and the girl would definitely think her son was too old.

Mrs. He felt that Nan Yu was outstanding and talented, and that he must like gentle and intelligent women. She definitely didn't like her own daughter who was so reckless.

Thinking of this, both of them sighed in their hearts.
