Chapter 109: Lottery!

"Meow~"

Suddenly, a cat's meow was heard outside the window.

Concubine Xiao held Nanny Chen's hand, and the two looked at each other in horror.

After a few breaths, Nanny Chen patted the back of Concubine Xiao's hand and slowly moved to the window.

When I opened the window, what I saw was the white snow. There was nothing unusual except a flowerpot that was broken on the ground.

Is it really just a cat?

But why are there no footprints?

After closing the window, Nanny Chen frowned even more. She looked around and began to open the lids and doors of the boxes one by one...

In the cabinet, Tang Bao covered his mouth with his two little hands, his heart was so nervous that it seemed like it was about to jump out of his chest.

The moment the cabinet door was opened defenselessly, she stared at Nanny Chen and almost screamed out loud!

Bang!

Suddenly...

The window was blown open by the wind, and the cold wind rushed into the room, making people shiver.

Concubine Xiao frowned and hugged herself tightly, feeling something strange in her heart, but she couldn't put her finger on it.

She quickly looked around and saw that there was indeed no one eavesdropping inside or outside the house. She covered her lips with a handkerchief and coughed a few times. "This room is drafty and very cold. Let's go to another place to wait for him!"

Just as Nanny Chen closed the cabinet door, she heard a "whoosh" sound and a cold arrow flew in from the window. It hit the bedpost with a "bang" and made a sharp buzzing sound.

Concubine Xiao screamed subconsciously, and seeing a piece of paper at the arrowhead's location, she quickly signaled Nanny Chen to take the arrow down.

"Protect the Queen!" The door was suddenly kicked open and several guards suddenly rushed in with long knives in their hands.

Concubine Xiao immediately used her body to block the arrow marks on the bedpost and said angrily: "I am fine! Why don't you leave!?" She never thought that the emperor would send someone to secretly monitor her?

After a cold glance, he saw nothing unusual in the room, so he clasped his fists and hurriedly retreated.

Didn't they clearly see someone so bold as to break into the palace at night and run towards this side?

The whereabouts of Princess Zhaoning are unknown, and His Majesty is frantic with worry. He orders a secret search, without alerting the Empress Dowager...

Since there is nothing unusual in Qixiang Palace, it is important for them to find talents as soon as possible!

As soon as the inner guards left, Concubine Xiao was so frightened that she fell to the ground: "Mammy, don't you think the emperor knows that it was me who asked Yun Shu'er to kill that bitch Yun Tang, so..."

"Your Majesty, please don't talk nonsense!" Nanny Chen interrupted Concubine Xiao hastily.

She stared at Concubine Xiao without blinking, and her gleaming eyes were a little scary, causing Xiao Tangbao to quickly look away.

The little guy covered his mouth tightly and listened carefully with his ears perked up. His slightly widened eyes were filled with anger as well as a desire to explore, which looked very funny.

"My Lady, Yun Shu'er is your granddaughter. She grew up by your side. You love her dearly, so how could you instigate her to kill someone?"

"Your Majesty lost her granddaughter, and she was so grief-stricken that she lost her composure and even fell ill... If His Majesty heard the news, he would only feel even more distressed for you, and perhaps your confinement would be lifted!"

"Why does it matter whether I'm released from confinement or not? What's important now is Tongshu! Tongshu's life or death is still unknown, and his future is uncertain!"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. Please read this note. The Minister said that the Prince Consort's life has been saved for the time being. He will arrange everything. We will meet in the cold palace in three days, at our usual place."

“…”

Knowing that they couldn't invite Jiang Zhong tonight, the two of them got up and left after talking.

The moment the door closed, Xiao Tangbao breathed a sigh of relief, finally escaping the danger!

She lay down in the closet exhausted, slowly calming her pounding heart.

Fortunately, there was a mattress in the cabinet, so it was not uncomfortable to lie on it.

She was saying, they were all children, how could Yun Shu'er be so evil as to kill someone? It turned out that Concubine Xiao taught her that!

Tang Bao didn't provoke her, but she even plotted against the child... Concubine Xiao is too evil!

If she doesn't let Tang Bao have an easy life, then Tang Bao won't let her have her way either!

Didn't she want people to tell her that she was going to meet her second uncle's father?

Mother once said that what you hear is not as good as what you see... Humph, by then, not only will she let everyone know Concubine Xiao's little secret, she will also let everyone see it with their own eyes!

Thinking about how evil Concubine Xiao was, Xiao Tangbao suddenly didn't want to stay in Qixiang Palace anymore!

She sat up suddenly and thought to herself that with Guigui's help, there was no place in the palace that she couldn't go... Why did she have to live here?

"Ghost, let's go..."

As soon as the little guy raised his eyes, his mind suddenly "boomed" -

That evil ghost is gone! ?

So when Nanny Chen closed the cabinet door, the window outside was not blown open by the wind, but was made by the evil ghost escaping!

So... Guigui didn't keep his word, he, he ran away secretly?

How could this be! This ugly, seemingly innocent guy actually lied to a child!?

Xiao Tangbao knocked her head in annoyance, and the next moment, she saw the merit points in her head rapidly decreasing, and in an instant they were reduced by half?

Wuuuuuu… So, not only did Tangbao work for nothing, he also got into trouble, and all the merits he had earned were gone?

The little girl looked at the soul bottle, thought about the merit points she had lost, and burst into tears with heartache.

She never dared to catch Guigui to help again!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh~

Is Tang Bao really smart? Tang Bao is swollen, Tang Bao is so stupid...

Now that Guigui is gone, Tang Bao has to stay at home tonight no matter how much he wants to.

Maybe because he hit himself too hard just now, the little guy lay down dizzy.

He soon lost consciousness.

…

Soup dumplings? Small soup dumplings?

"Little Tangbao, you draw talismans well. Master has brought you a reward. How about we draw a prize?"

Yan Li is not a cheating person!

He just didn't expect that his apprentice would learn things so quickly. In order not to treat the little guy unfairly, he prepared for several days before he was satisfied.

Unable to distinguish between dreams and reality, Tang Bao slowly opened his eyes... and indeed saw Yan Li.

"Father Xi!?"

"Why did you come so late, Father Xi? Can you please take Tang Bao back to Shou Kang Palace? Tang Bao doesn't want to stay here!"

[It's almost dawn, and Master still has a lot of things to do. You only have a cup of tea, so hurry up and draw!]

When Tang Bao heard this, she decisively stopped talking about returning to Shoukang Palace. Looking at the beautiful boxes of various sizes in front of her, she grabbed them and opened them.

Wow—the first reward was the detoxification pill she wanted most!

I must give it to daddy first. In case he is not sick but poisoned, he won’t feel uncomfortable anymore!

Daddy secretly took several pills today, and Tang Bao saw it all...

Xiao Tangbao felt sad when he thought of his father's pale face.

Continue to dismantle the second piece, the third piece...

Huh?

Looking at the thin, almost transparent vest in his hand, Tang Bao was extremely puzzled: "Father Xi, what's the matter with this?"
