Chapter 16 — The Husband takes on two duties, we reconcile and become a Princess

Hoai ma ma stood beside us, looking at us with kind eyes.

"If the Princess could see this scene, she would definitely be so happy that she would shed tears. Every year the little princess already has someone to love and have children."

I choked. Knowing clearly that she misunderstood. The words Ta Hoai Nghia said outside were intended for Tieu Dich Han to hear, so she probably misunderstood them. Ta Hoai Nghia glanced at me, smiled and said:

"I also think so. After all, before I was born, Uncle Tham was already destined to be my son-in-law."

I didn't expect him to have such a thick skin, so I kicked him under the table. Niep Nie said "um" and looked at me with a suspicious face.

"My mother touched Niep Nie, did she want to ask my opinion? I like Uncle Ta very much, it's not impossible for him to be my father."

Hearing Ta Hoai Nghia's cheerful laughter on the other side, I coldly snorted. He looked at my face.

“Tri Kien, the words I just said were not just to relieve you and anger Tieu Dich Han, but were also my true words.”

He didn't give me a chance to open my mouth at all.

"You don't need to rush to refuse or give an answer, I just want to tell you, I'm always here."

"Whether it's the future between you and Niep Niep, or the person behind it who hasn't yet appeared, I will stand behind you and be your strong support."

Niep Nie raised his head, his expression innocent: "Uncle Xie, what is the support, is it big, can it be eaten?" Hoai ma ma said "who da" and carried Niep Niep out.

“I cooked some soup for Niep Niep, give her some nourishment, you two can eat.”

I looked at Ta Hoai Nghia and sighed softly.

"Brother Hoai Nghia, my current situation is not suitable for marriage. Even if I want to find another man, most of the time I can only be a husband-in-law. I will not leave Tuc Vuong Palace."

He looked matter-of-fact:

“Then wouldn't I be more suitable?”

"In my family, I am neither the eldest nor the second child. I have no burden. Moreover, I have also had some reputation since childhood. I also have some dignity in front of Your Majesty. I will not lose your status."

"The most important thing is, we already know each other and have feelings from before, and I have always liked her. This is truly a match made in heaven, a match made in heaven."

I thought carefully, what he said was not unreasonable. For a moment, I didn't know how to respond. Obviously, at first I intended to advise him, but in the end I was persuaded by him. Ta Hoai Nghia picked up a chopstick of food for me: "It's okay, the days are still long, you have enough time to think, and you can also slowly observe me." I quietly ate that piece of food. He smiled slightly, proactively brushing this matter aside.

"Currently, the people in the palace, my majesty and I have screened them once, at least on the outside they are all clean people, but if that person comes back, he will definitely not show up easily. You usually have to be a little more clever."

I nodded. Right now this palace looks bustling and happy, a peaceful place, but in reality there is danger on all sides. Even if not for himself, it must be for Niep Niep's safety, as well as the heroic spirits of his deceased parents. After eating lunch, Ta Hoai Nghia was called away. Before leaving, he also warned me every word, telling me to pay attention to safety. I nodded. Do Give him a reassuring gesture, then he can leave with peace of mind. The news of my return to Tuc Vuong Palace quickly spread throughout the capital. Invitations fly in like snow every day, and I refuse them all. One heartedly stayed in the palace, focusing on the renovation work. Niep Niep is even busier than me, running everywhere in the palace to explore. Until she dug out a worm and suddenly placed it right in front of me. At that moment, my scream could reach the royal palace. Waiting for the baby to be carried away by the nanny, I accepted the cup of tea that Mama Hoai gave me and gradually regained my composure. Waiting until Niep Niep lost interest in the palace, the renovation was almost completed. That day, Ta Hoai Nghia sent a messenger, saying he had to help His Majesty handle something and would leave the capital for a few days. I looked at Niep Nie, who was boredly tinkering with flower petals, and called out to her: "I'll take you as a guest, go to Auntie Ha's house to find Tran Tran to play, okay?" The child's eyes immediately lit up. The two children, as soon as they met, held hands and played, occasionally bursting into laughter. Ha Ninh Phu and I looked at each other and burst out laughing. She poured me a cup of tea, pushed the breakfast plate towards me, and smiled softly: "That day when I found out that you were Princess Thanh Ha, I was really scared." I conveniently picked up a piece of breakfast and raised my eyebrows:

“What, are you startled by my appearance?”

She paused for a moment, then laughed, her whole body feeling more relaxed.

"Right now, your appearance is still far worse than Tuc Vuong Phi. Let's take care of it for a while longer. When your face is a little fuller, I'm afraid you will still surpass her."
