Chapter 1658 Cover-up
Yeah, why?
Koko couldn't answer her because he didn't have the ability to go back in time. He could only listen to her muttering silently.
In the end, after some hesitation, she decided to spend her points to let Keke keep an eye on Xu Yu. At the moment, she was the only person she could suspect.
Keke scanned it and silently turned on the recording function.
When Manbao arrived at the Crown Princess's bedroom, Yiren and Yitong had already discussed the matter.
The Crown Princess was in a very heavy condition and was due to give birth in a month or so. Manbao felt her pulse and belly, and after confirming that there was no problem with the fetal position and the person, he stood up and said goodbye.
The Crown Princess asked with a smile, "Do you still want to go see Prince Gong?"
Manbao nodded. "It's been a while. I have to go see how Prince Gong is recovering."
The Crown Princess smiled and said, "I saw him during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Although he still looked a little plump than the average person, he was much healthier and more energetic. Even the Queen Mother said that Prince Gong looked healthier than before."
Manbao was pleased with himself, "Losing weight isn't that difficult. After the queen gives birth to the baby, I can help you lose weight too."
The Crown Princess reached out and touched her bloated face, then replied with a smile, "Okay."
Manbao went from the East Palace to the Taiji Palace to see Prince Gong.
Prince Gong is still living in the palace now. After all, he is under house arrest. However, he has relaxed a lot recently. Basically, he just walks back and forth around the imperial garden. He doesn't have to climb mountains and feels much more relaxed.
But he had lost a lot of weight, especially his muscles had become firmer. People who hadn't seen him recently would almost not recognize him if they suddenly saw him.
Prince Gong himself could feel that he was in much better health, at least he no longer got out of breath or sweated profusely when walking.
However, he still would not thank Zhou Man. He would look unhappy whenever he saw Zhou Man. More importantly, he had a bad feeling whenever he saw Zhou Man.
Sure enough, after feeling his pulse and pinching the flesh on his arm, Zhou Man said, "Your Highness, you won't have to walk to lose weight anymore."
Prince Gong tensed his back.
Manbao said, "Let His Majesty find a martial arts master for you to learn martial arts from."
Prince Gong: I don’t!
Manbao seemed to sense Prince Gong's resistance and tried to persuade him kindly, "Your Highness, practicing martial arts is great! It not only strengthens your body, but it also develops a skill, doesn't it? Perhaps you'll even be able to fight on the battlefield and achieve great things in the future."
She said, "You have money, a martial arts master, and time now, how wonderful it is."
If she had time, she would also practice martial arts with Daji.
Practicing martial arts is so much fun.
Prince Gong didn't find it amusing at all. If he wanted to be a military general, he should have learned it when he was a child. Would he have had to wait until now?
His son is almost old enough to learn martial arts. Is it too late for him to practice now?
Of course it was too late. Manbao's original intention was not to make him a martial arts master or a brave general. She just wanted him to move more, sweat more, and tighten the soft flesh on his body.
Regardless of whether Prince Gong was willing or not, since Manbao said so, the Empress arranged the people and time for Prince Gong without the Emperor having to make any arrangements.
Anyway, he is under house arrest now, so he has plenty of time.
Originally, the Queen wanted to send him back to Luozhou after the Double Ninth Festival. After all, it was not good for him to stay in the capital all the time. But since Zhou Man said so, and they also saw the effect, even for the sake of Prince Gong's health, they should keep him for a while longer.
Prince Gong was really about to cry. If the person was arranged by his father, he could still lie on his father's knees and cry, but since it was arranged by his mother, he knew that crying was useless.
Zhou Man is indeed his nemesis.
Prince Gong gnashed his teeth in hatred, but he did not dare to disobey his mother's orders.
As Manbao was leaving Prince Gong's palace carrying his medicine box, he bumped into Mingda and Changyu who were waiting on the road. The three of them chatted for a while, and Changyu asked, "I just heard Third Brother's angry voice outside. What did you do to him?"
Man Bao said: "I didn't, but the Queen sent someone to teach Prince Gong martial arts. From now on, he doesn't have to walk briskly in the Imperial Garden anymore. He can just practice martial arts in the martial arts field."
Changyu opened his mouth wide.
Mingda said, "Third brother doesn't like martial arts and loves reading the most. Crown Prince is just the opposite. He prefers riding and shooting to reading. You are all blaming Crown Prince. Crown Prince doesn't like reading, but Kong Jijiu and the others force him to study. Third brother doesn't like swordplay, but you force him to practice martial arts."
Man Bao said, "I don't expect him to learn anything. This is all for his health. Once he's in good shape, my mission will be complete. By then, I'll report to His Majesty. Whether he continues practicing or not will be entirely up to him."
The main thing is that she doesn't want him to have too much free time to cause trouble for her. Humph, he still wants to sow discord, without even considering who she is!
Mingda and Changyu had known her for a long time and guessed that she was holding a grudge because of what Prince Gong said on the top of the mountain.
Chang Yu couldn't help but laugh, and assured Man Bao: "Don't worry, I won't choose Bai Shan as my consort."
Manbao said, "Bai Shan and I are engaged."
The subtext is, even if you click on it, it won’t work. Does the emperor have no shame?
Chang Yu tilted his head and thought about it. Yes, his father was still very concerned about his reputation. He would never do such a thing as forcibly taking the husband of a minister.
But they weren't waiting for Manbao here to gossip. Changyu looked at Mingda, and Mingda lowered his voice and asked, "Manbao, do you know Goguryeo?"
"I know, Korean ginseng is very famous."
The two princesses choked at the same time, then said, "We are not talking about ginseng, we are talking about people."
Mingda lowered his voice and said, "This time, the vassal state sent tribute, and Goguryeo sent ten extremely beautiful girls."
Chang Yu said, "There are several good-looking Goguryeo men among the envoys."
Manbao asked: "Is he as good-looking as Yang Xuexiong?"
Changyu and Mingda shook their heads and said, "How can they compare?"
Manbao spread his hands and said, "What's the point? They're not as good-looking as Brother Yang."
Chang Yu said, "Although not as beautiful as Lord Yang, it is still beautiful. Mingda and I want to go and see it, but there is no reason why we can't leave the palace at will."
Mingda nodded. "You can't just stare at Lord Yang. It's also good to look at other good-looking people. After all, spring flowers and autumn moons each have their own merits."
Manbao was confused. "I'm so busy, how can I have time to look at beauties? You can't leave the palace either. Um, do you want me to help you look?"
Mingda couldn't help but say, "How can we help you see this? We can't even put our eyes on you."
Man Bao said: "You can still pretend, but if you pretend, you will become my eyes, and you will not be able to see what you want to see through my eyes."
Chang Yu turned around and said to Ming Da, "It's over. We haven't spoken for only six days and already we can't talk."
Manbao slapped his head and said, "It's my fault. I've been thinking about what Dean Xiao told me all day. My head is full of medical books. Forget it, why don't you just tell me what you want to see me for?"
Mingda said, "Next time you take a rest, we will tell Father and Mother that we are going to the palace to visit you. Please cover up for us with Father and Mother."
