Chapter 151 Children's Words

Who is Princess Zhaoning? She is the apple of the old empress dowager's eye and the apple of the eyes of so many people. Even the current emperor, who is unpredictable in mood, can't do anything about her.

The emperor was in the clan house, and no one knew what he was discussing with those ministers. They were just waiting. Princess Zhaoning said she wanted to try the Minister of Revenue, so everyone should accompany the child to the trial!

I have nothing to do anyway, so playing house is so fun...

Everyone cleared their throats and quieted down, pretending to wait and see, looking straight at Tang Bao.

Zhou was closest to Tang Bao. Seeing how cute the little girl was, she couldn't help but smile. She squatted down and stretched out her hand towards her.

"May Princess Zhaoning be blessed with good health! I am Minister Li's sister-in-law and the mistress of the Ningguo Mansion. How did Minister Li offend Her Highness? Can I help you judge him?"

Zhou spoke in a coquettish voice and pretended to be kind on the surface, without any of the rude and aggressive look that had troubled Xie Yuanshuang just now.

Little Tangbao tilted her head, and when Zhou was about to touch her hand, she suddenly put her hand behind her back.

Zhou: (ˉ﹃ˉ)

Seeing that Zhou's attempt to get close to her failed, many people couldn't help but laugh out loud.

He looked at the overconfident woman in front of him as if she were a clown.

Zhou's heart skipped a beat. She knew that the young princess was dissatisfied with her because of Xie Yuanshuang.

She turned around and looked at Li Chenglan with grievance, but found that his eyes always fell on the abandoned woman of the Xie family from time to time.

How can this be possible...

Zhou was annoyed and looked unhappy.

Xiao Tangbao narrowed his eyes slightly and raised his chin to look at her. "Your name is Zhou Mengqi, you're twenty-nine this year, and you're the eldest daughter-in-law of the Duke of Ning's mansion. The late Princess Jianing is your mother-in-law, right?"

“???” Zhou nodded blankly.

Although this child is impolite, he has a good memory for recognizing people!

Humph, even though Zhou Mengqi's husband is dead and she has no children, she is still the head mistress of the Ningguo Mansion! !

Thinking of this, Zhou looked sideways into the distance, and couldn't help but curl up the corners of her lips, looking very proud.

Tang Bao was just a little kid and felt speechless.

-`(╬òó)`

She's the female version of Jiang Tongshu, a bad guy. What's there to be proud of?!

The short and plump little boy pursed his lips and turned to look at Yun Lie: "Since the Ningguo Mansion is run by the Zhou family, please ask Third Uncle to invite Ningguo Duke over!"

Yun Lie: “???”

Why would you ask Duke Ningguo to do that for no reason?

Yun Lie opened his eyes wide in confusion.

Seeing the solemn face of the little girl, he suddenly remembered that those lonely ghosts called her the living Bodhisattva and the little Taoist priest, and used her as a wishing tree... An idea flashed in his mind and he had a guess in an instant.

"I'll go find Duke Ningguo right now!" After saying that, he started running.

Not long after...

Duke Ningguo came with other members of the Li family.

For fear of causing more trouble, the officials' wives, who had originally been hiding far away, all followed suit, wanting to follow the crowd.

…

Seeing that the person who was supposed to come had arrived, the slightly sleepy little Tangbao instantly became energetic.

She climbed up to a high place with a grunt, and shouted at the top of her voice: "Look, look, this Zhou Mengqi is fickle and harbors evil intentions. She is not a good person! She..."

"Princess, please be careful with your words!" Zhou Mengqi screamed and interrupted Tang Bao as if someone had stepped on his tail.

She glanced around hurriedly, her face cold and pale. "Even if the princess is upset because I just spoke up for Xie because I disliked her, she shouldn't humiliate me in public like this."

Zhou spoke with a tearful tone, as if she had suffered a great injustice.

"According to seniority, the princess should call me aunt. How can you be so rude and speak so harshly?"

Zhou pursed her lips and wiped away her tears.

Xiao Tangbao stared at her, his expression growing colder and colder, his deep and mysterious eyes as cold as floating ice and broken snow.

Zhou accidentally met her gaze and her heart suddenly panicked.

This Princess Zhaoning and His Royal Highness Prince Qing look so much alike!

Especially when the two of them had no expression on their faces, even their aura was the same!

The big killer, the little killer... Everyone in the Daliang royal family is bloodthirsty and cruel, there is not a single normal person!

Tsk! You still have the nerve to say she's not a good person?!

The two looked at each other, one calm, the other panicked.

In response to Zhou's words, Xiao Tangbao neither refuted nor argued, "I'm just telling you what I know. Madam Li feels embarrassed, so she can cry and make a scene and deny it!"

Everyone: ()

The little fellow was trying hard to recall what Auntie Ghost had said, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter... How come Tang Bao didn't understand so many of the words?!

What to do? ?

well……

Forget it, since Tang Bao doesn't understand, then just pretend to understand...

The most important thing for Zhuizhu right now is to tell Tangbao everything he knows, and to make it clear so that they know that even in her grave, she would never agree to their marriage!

"Listen carefully..."

"Ms. Zhou's husband is the eldest son of Duke Ning. He has been bedridden since childhood and is unable to take care of himself..."

"After she got married, she felt so lonely, isolated and cold that she snuck into her brother-in-law's bed at night."

"Princess!?" Zhou stamped her feet in anger. Although she looked furious, she was terrified in her heart. "If you continue to be so disrespectful and destroy my innocence, I will hit my head against the wall and die..."

"It doesn't matter," Little Tang Bao glanced over, his tone cold, "You can hit the wall or the prison van, no one cares if you live or die, but you can't stop Tang Bao from speaking!"

"You...you you..." Zhou was so angry that her eyes were red, she bit her lower lip tightly, and tears welled up in her eyes.

Tang Bao snorted softly, "When your husband was still alive, you were shameless and secretly seduced your brother-in-law. After your husband died, as a widow, not only did you not change your ways, you even encouraged your brother-in-law to marry you..."

"You're telling me, if you don't repent and continue to pester Minister Li, your mother-in-law won't let you go even if she becomes a ghost!"

Tang Bao's little mouth kept chattering, blurting out words that were understandable and unfamiliar, and he managed to make everyone understand!

It turns out that the Li family, who pride themselves on being a clean family, is so filthy inside their house!

"You...you..." Zhou was so angry that she was shaking all over. Her fairly distinctive face turned from red to white and then to blue. In the end, she was so guilty and frightened that she couldn't say any other word except "you".

She just squatted on the ground with her face covered and cried. She kept saying that she wanted to commit suicide, but she did nothing.

Tang Bao curled his lips: "People who really want to die won't talk about death and life all day long. You are acting but you are afraid of pain. How can you achieve your goal?"

Duke Ningguo felt dizzy and his old face felt ashamed.

"This concerns the reputation of my Li family. Does Princess Zhaoning have any evidence?" His voice was deep and muffled, and he was obviously holding back his anger.

Little Tang Bao wasn't afraid of him, "I only tell you what I know. If anyone wants to know the truth, they can check it themselves. Why are you asking me for evidence?"

"And, Grandpa Duke, you have to keep your word. Since you promised your wife to remain faithful to her and never remarry, you should send that little devil named Hu away right away!"

"Each of you has disturbed the deceased, risking your life wandering the mortal world... In the end, it's you who are responsible for the unrest in your home and the complete ruin of your fortune, not me!"

"I'm just a person who spreads…"

`(　ヘ)　━━!!`

Yun Lie took the little guy down, held him under his arm and covered his mouth.

"That's enough, little ancestor. Didn't you see that Duke Ningguo's face has turned pale? If he's not angry enough, you'll scare him to death again, and that will create karma for you!" Yun Lie gritted his teeth without opening his mouth, looking quite gritting his teeth.

Little Tangbao kicked his limbs and doggy-paddled in the air for a long time, then he struggled to pry Yun Lie's hands away and looked at him with his big eyes blinking, his eyes full of curiosity.

"Uncle San, what is impotence? What is lovemaking?"

"..." Yun Lie's pupils trembled violently, and his heart suddenly began to beat wildly with shyness. "Don't ask questions that a child shouldn't know!"

"What's something that the smart and cute Tangbao can't know? If you don't tell me, I'll uh..." just go ask someone else!

Yun Lie pursed his lips and covered the little guy's mouth again.

Oh my god!!

"Children, children should speak without restraint, children should speak without restraint..." He forced an awkward smile at the crowd, then sighed to the sky.

Xie Yuanshuang knew Tang Bao's secret. Looking at Yun Lie's expression and behavior, she guessed that he might know it too...

Afraid that he might not be gentle enough and hurt Tang Bao, she went towards Yun Lie without hesitation. When she was about to pass by Li Chenglan, she deliberately took a detour.

???

Li Chenglan: Σ(﹏|||)

No...why?

It has nothing to do with him!!!

Duke Ningguo felt a buzzing in his ears. Standing in the cold winter night, he felt dizzy and his whole body was icy cold.

There is no way anyone would know about Hu's affairs!!

Wait...

It was said that children's third eyes could see ghosts and spirits. Could it be that the princess had come to her? Had she appeared in a dream?

He stumbled back a few steps, holding his forehead, and then suddenly raised his eyes: "Li, Cheng, Lan!?"

"It's not me!" Li Chenglan, who was suddenly named, shouted in horror.

He subconsciously glanced at Xie Yuanshuang, who was holding Princess Zhaoning, and stared straight into his father's bloodshot eyes: "You have four sons in total! Besides, I have looked down on Zhou since the day she came into our family. Don't you know that?!"

Little Tangbao hugged Xie Yuanshuang's neck and listened to the chatter of everyone.

At this moment, she frowned and said to him, "The more you explain, the worse it gets. I don't understand..."

"Aunt Yuanshuang, what does 'under the melon field and plum tree' mean? 'The more you try to hide, the more obvious it becomes. 'And there's no silver here, but three hundred taels.' What does 'Sen' mean?"

Hearing this, Yun Lie suddenly felt a sense of responsibility. He patted Tang Bao's head and said earnestly, "Do you understand the importance of studying now?"

Tangbao: `(`~′)°`

Yun Lie: "Master Ouyang, this is all for your own good. Go back and write the rules quickly. Then apologize to the Master tomorrow. Do you understand?"

"Hmph~" The little guy turned around and glared at Li Chenglan angrily: "You are violating the rules and regulations, reporting it to your superiors and subordinates... It's all your fault. Someone is urging Tang Bao to write his punishment again!"

Duke Ningguo knew immediately that Princess Zhaoning was applying what she had learned on the spot, and he quickly corrected her with a pale face, "My Lord Princess, this is not how you report to your superiors!"
