Bai Shu couldn't stand Xiao Moqing's deep and unfathomable eyes.
She always felt that she was the only one running rampant in those eyes.
Especially since the owner of the eyes had just confessed to her not long ago, she was even more helpless...
“That’s right!”
"This Du Wenqing, his talent and knowledge are passable, but his character is really terrible."
"It stands to reason that as a commoner and the top scholar, he should be promoted quickly if he works hard, but he insists on delving into those crooked ways. How could the emperor's uncle dare to employ such a man?"
The princess extracted important information from Bai Shu's words.
She couldn't help but sigh, Du Wenqing and Su Yunxi, they really are from the same family!
They are all eager for quick success and instant benefits, thinking about taking shortcuts. But is there anyone in this world who can achieve success overnight without putting in any effort?
Although she was the eldest princess, she also shouldered the burden of marriage.
And any ordinary citizen in Dongye is busy with life every day.
Isn’t the purpose of the uncle and the emperor recruiting talented people to make the people of Dongye live a good life?
For someone like Du Wenqing who has no concern for the people's livelihood, how long can he stay in that high position?
"Well, greed is the key to success. They won't have a good ending."
Bai Shu was thinking about the system's task and what Xiao Moqing had just said.
Du Wenqing is now under the shackles of the Bai family, and the Regent will not extend an olive branch to him, so there will be no more trouble.
Therefore, her top priority now is to cure Xiao Moqing and provide more protection for Dongye court.
Perhaps, the day he is cured, the mission will be accomplished.
…
Su Yunxi blocking the road was just a small episode, time passed quickly,
The eldest princess and Bai Shu were chatting all the way, and the atmosphere was surprisingly harmonious.
Xiao Moqing concentrated on fanning the room, creating cool air so that the girl opposite could feel more comfortable.
"Uncle, Sister, Shu'er, you're finally here. Come into the room and cool down!"
As soon as Bai Shu and her group arrived, they were warmly welcomed in by the Queen.
It is the hottest time of the year, and the sash windows in the palace play a huge role, providing ventilation from the top and letting light in from the bottom.
In addition, the design of sitting north and facing south makes the house cool even in summer.
What's more, the queen thoughtfully prepared ice cubes in the house to cool down.
As soon as Bai Shu and the others entered, a cool breeze blew in their faces, making them feel refreshed.
"Your humble servant pays homage to Her Majesty the Queen."
Bai Shu was about to salute, but was stopped by the Queen.
"Shu'er, although it's a palace banquet today, there are no outsiders. You don't have to feel restrained."
"I'm so grateful to you for what happened last time. I haven't thanked you properly yet!"
The queen, dressed in a phoenix robe, regained her demeanor as the mother of the country.
Moreover, her mental state had visibly improved, and it seemed that the knot between her and the emperor had been untied.
This is undoubtedly a good thing.
Bai Shu was about to say something polite when she was suddenly hugged by a familiar little cannonball.
The childish voice of a child rang in my ears,
"Sister Bai! Sister Bai! Why don't you come in?"
Xiao Wan'er is the little cannonball. Every time she appears, she rushes towards Bai Shu.
Fortunately, she is in good health now, otherwise she might not be able to accept such "heavy love".
Bai Shu picked up Xiao Wan'er from the ground naturally and skillfully without much effort.
She shook her head deliberately and said,
"It's only been a few days since we last met, how come our Princess Wan'er has become even cuter?"
Bai Shu really wanted to pinch Xiao Wan'er's face, which was so tender that it could be squeezed out of water.
Girls of this age are the cutest, with chubby little faces and baby fat.
Unfortunately, Bai Shu was not yet able to hold the little cannonball with one hand, so she could only look at Xiao Wan'er's little face with envy.
Since getting off the carriage, Xiao Moqing has been following Bai Shu closely.
This moment was no exception. He stood beside Bai Shu at a distance to protect her.
But when Xiao Moqing saw Xiao Wan'er clinging to Bai Shu and asking for a hug, his brows couldn't help but slightly frown.
She is already three years old, why does she still need someone to hold her?
And Bai Shu was obviously struggling. Xiao Moqing recalled the arm he held in the carriage.
It's so delicate and soft, how could it possibly support a half-grown child?
So Xiao Moqing said expressionlessly,
"It's time for lunch, why aren't you coming down yet?"
Xiao Moqing's self-proclaimed expressionlessness was just what he thought.
In Xiao Wan'er's eyes, it was the always strict imperial uncle who was being mean to her!
The little princess immediately felt aggrieved, and her mouth was pouted so high that it seemed as if it could hold a chopstick.
Tears welled up in her eyes, but she didn't dare to cry, fearing that the emperor's uncle would be mean to her again.
It is easy to guess what a child is thinking, because it is written all over their face. This made the eldest princess and the queen nervous.
It’s over, the little princess is going to cry again!
Bai Shu just glanced at Xiao Moqing disapprovingly and began to coax the little princess.
"Wan'er, ignore him. Sister Bai will carry you to dinner."
Bai Shu's words made Xiao Wan'er smile immediately, and there was no trace of the aggrieved look she had just had.
The Queen and the Princess were relieved. Not only did they not have to worry about Xiao Wan'er,
They also discovered that the emperor's uncle seemed to be afraid of Bai Shu?
Such a niche literature, they don’t understand it, but that doesn’t stop them from reading it!
"Great! Sister Bai is the best!"
Xiao Wan'er was dancing and cheering, looking like a completely different person from before.
But her excitement, in Xiao Moqing's opinion, only increased Bai Shu's burden. The dining table was inside the palace, not far away, but also not close.
But Bai Shu had just given him a threatening look, so he didn't dare to upset the little princess again.
I have no choice but to resort to this last resort.
"I will carry you over."
When Xiao Moqing finished speaking, everyone present was petrified.
Wan'er had been born for three years, and the uncle had never held her in his arms once. Furthermore, Xiao Moqing's image made it difficult to imagine what it would be like for him to hold a child...
The worst off person is Xiao Wan'er, she was originally most afraid of the emperor's uncle,
At this moment, he froze in Bai Shu's arms, completely dumbfounded. The playful look on his face just now disappeared.
Instead, there is no laughter.
Bai Shu found it interesting. During the last flower viewing banquet, she and Xiao Wan'er had similar feelings towards Xiao Moqing.
They all keep their distance and try not to get close to it.
But it had only been a short time since then, and she was no longer afraid of Xiao Moqing. She also knew that Xiao Moqing actually cared a lot about the descendants left by the late emperor.
No matter how useless the princess's husband is, Xiao Moqing will still love him and give him a high position and generous salary.
The reason why the young emperor relied on the regent was because he was trustworthy.
So he actually doted on these younger generations who were his blood relatives, but he just didn't express it.
So Bai Shu was now looking forward to seeing Xiao Moqing holding Xiao Wan'er, so she coaxed Wan'er and said,
"Wan'er, do you want to be held by the emperor's uncle?"
