Chapter 436 The Death Gaze from the Regent

Even though I know she definitely can't hear me.

A woman who is fast asleep has a limp body.

When Xiao Tang woke up again, it was already daylight. The curtains were drawn, so she didn't find the sunlight outside the window particularly dazzling.

She looked around but didn't see Di Jingling.

She let out a soft "hmm," shook her head slightly, and wondered if she was hallucinating.

[Host, you're awake!]

The little dumpling happily jumped into her arms, being much more clingy than usual.

Xiao Tang disdainfully lifted it aside, tidied herself up, and prepared to go to the imperial court.

How many people are waiting to see her make a fool of herself at court today...

Upon exiting the mansion, they were surprised to find the villain's carriage still parked there steadily.

By normal times, he would be late for court.

Ruyi said with delight, "Your Highness, the Prince is still waiting for you, isn't that wonderful?"

Even though we argued yesterday...

Oh no, not really, it was just the princess causing a unilateral unpleasantness.

However, she didn't know what kind of unpleasantness had occurred between the princess and the prince, but it did seem quite troublesome.

Xiao Tang wanted to say she wouldn't sit...

The carriage window was rolled open.

Di Jingling's gaze fell silently on her face, even making Xiao Tang read a hint of a smile.

Xiao Tang cleared her throat. "I... I think Your Highness is running out of time, so let's go to court together."

After she finished speaking, she quickly boarded the carriage.

But the smile in Di Jingling's eyes vanished instantly.

He heard Xiao Tang call him "Your Highness," and in such a polite way?

So, will his wife's love for him disappear?

Xiao Tang sat down next to him.

It was also a familiar sweet scent, refreshing and intoxicating.

Di Jingling was a little dazed. He wanted to hold her hand, but the girl seemed to sense something and quickly pulled her hand away, leaving his hand empty.

A chill emanated from the man instantly.

Yan Jiu, standing outside the carriage, trembled in fright.

The power of this man, Di Jingling, is truly terrifying.

Normally, Xiao Tang would have snuggled up to him and coaxed him, calling him "darling" in his arms.

But not now.

Not only did she not, but she remained unmoved.

Di Jingling felt helpless, and perhaps thinking of making one last struggle, he held her small hand again.

This time I successfully grasped it.

The man was just starting to feel happy when...

Yan Jiu reported from outside: "Your Highness and Your Highness, we have arrived at the palace."

As soon as Yan Jiu finished speaking, the carriage curtain was pulled open, and he immediately felt the murderous gaze from the Regent.

That death stare startled him.

Yan Jiu was full of questions, even looking somewhat innocent and confused.

What's going on?

Di Jingling got off the carriage and reached out to help Xiao Tang down, but she brushed his hand away.

[Hmph, I'm still angry, don't think you can make me happy so easily.]

She brushed the man's hand away and strode away.

Di Jingling watched her retreating figure, finding it slightly amusing, and helplessly followed after her.

[You stinky man, what are you laughing at?]

I don't find it funny at all.

No, I can't think about this. The more I think about it, the angrier I get, and the more I want to bite someone.

Xiao Tang walked into the main hall indifferently.

Everyone looked at the regent, who was unusually late... and the queen, who exuded an aura of unapproachability.

Anyone with eyes could quickly tell that they had definitely had a fight...

Is the prince and princess having a falling out?

Is such a thing even possible? After all, the two of them were all lovey-dovey in court yesterday.

Just as everyone was filled with doubt and speculation, Di Jingling took Xiao Tang's hand and led her to a seat.

This action tells everyone that they haven't been arguing and that their relationship is extremely harmonious.

Marquis Rong'an was more silent than usual today.

He looked at the couple and remained silent for a moment.

His cousin did not show up today.

But the scene was quite tense at one point.

"Your Highness, is there any way to resolve this?" the Prime Minister stepped forward and asked.

After some internal struggle, he had clearly come to terms with the fact that his grandson was gone.

Xiao Tang looked at the Prime Minister.

I seem to have aged ten years overnight.

His hair had turned white from worry, his face had more wrinkles, and even the shadows under his eyes had become much deeper.

After all, he was his first grandson, which is truly heartbreaking.

He asked Xiao Tang with a look that was both aged and expectant.

Even if my grandson's life cannot be brought back, I will find the culprit and avenge my grandson!

Xiao Tang replied, "Don't worry, since I've already agreed, I will naturally lend a hand."

She got up.

Today is another day of attending court while sitting on Emperor Jingling's lap.

She arranged the items that Yan Shi had prepared yesterday one by one.

"May I borrow that baby again?"

She turned to the eunuch and spoke.

The young eunuch dared not question it.

After all, he knew all too well that the Queen's orders were equivalent to those of a regent.

Of all the officials in the court, the Regent and his wife were the most dangerous to offend; if you did, you wouldn't even know how you died.

The baby was brought over very quickly.

Xiao Tang discreetly slipped a talisman inside; this brief action went unnoticed by anyone.

Only Di Jingling heard her innermost thoughts.

Hey, let's use a feint to the east while attacking from the west, and see just how clever this monster is.

Xiao Tang laid the child flat on the swaddling clothes on the ground.

Then he poured the hyena blood into a diamond-shaped vase, leaving the remaining bloodstains to be drawn haphazardly and crookedly on the ground.

All the ministers craned their necks to look.

They were all very curious about what the princess was doing.
