Chapter 235 This Princess Is Not Such a Frugal Person
Bu Ruo snorted softly, "What wishful thinking they all have. This princess is a disciple of God, but she is also a demon who kills without blinking an eye. Although my Bu family has now returned the military power, it is not their turn to bully me."
"A lean camel is bigger than a horse. If the Duke of En's Mansion doesn't even understand this principle, it won't last long. Today... should be the last day of their prosperity. Neither the Emperor nor the Prince can tolerate this any longer."
When Buruo arrived at the gate of Duke Enguo's mansion, the Crown Prince's wife was welcoming guests. When she saw Buruo's carriage stop, she immediately came to greet him.
"Your Highness greets the Princess. It is truly a blessing for our Duke's Mansion that you can attend your father-in-law's birthday celebration today."
"Oh, this must be the young master and princess. I've never seen such beautiful children. They are fair, cute, and chubby. They are really attractive at first sight. They are not like the one in my family. They looked like a skinny black monkey when they were born."
"Huh? Where's the prince? Didn't he come with the princess?"
Bu Ruo smiled and said, "The prince is still in the palace right now. I'm afraid he won't be here for a while."
The Crown Prince's wife personally led Bu Ruo and his group inside. She frowned only when she saw Guo Lu, but quickly returned to normal.
The Crown Prince's wife first took Buru to meet the old Duke's wife. When Buru arrived, many officials' wives were already there, even the wife of the Marquis of Guangling.
"Your Highness, I greet the Princess Regent."
Bu Ruo exempted himself from all formalities. The Duke's wife kindly wanted Bu Ruo to sit in the main seat, but Bu Ruo politely declined and sat directly next to the wife of the Marquis of Guangling, making others very envious.
You know, who in Kyoto doesn't want to have a relationship with the Regent's Palace now? But Xiao Yulan has always been a loner, and Bu Ruo has basically not gone out in the past two years since she had a child. Now that she has finally come out, she must seize the opportunity to flatter her.
However, Bu Ruo and the wife of Marquis Guangling were talking all the time, so they couldn't get a word in for a while.
"princess……"
Bu Ruo smiled and said, "Aunt Bai, you should call me Ruo'er, just like in the outside world. It sounds more intimate. Besides, you have already acknowledged me as your goddaughter, so now you don't want to acknowledge me? I won't agree. After all, I have accepted all the good things you sent me."
The wife of the Marquis of Guangling patted her hand lovingly and said, "You are always so unforgiving with your mouth. It's good this way, so you won't be bullied."
"Come, let me hold the baby. Oh, it's become much heavier after not seeing it for two months. It's really adorable."
In the past two years, since Buruo gave birth to the children, the wife of Marquis Guangling would go to the Regent's Palace every few months to see Buruo and the two children, so the two children were not unfamiliar with her.
While teasing the child, the wife of the Marquis of Guangling whispered to Bu Ruo, "Ruo'er, I heard that the old Duke of En and his wife are after your prince. They've sent their eldest daughter to the palace, and they have a little daughter who's been spoiled and cunning since she was little. You'd better be careful."
Bu Ruo smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, Aunt Bai, I know. I remember that the last person who wanted to kill my prince has his body thrown into some mountain. They really think that the Regent Palace is their backyard and they can let anyone in if they want."
At this moment, the old Duke's wife spoke: "Princess, I have an unwelcome request. I wonder if you can fulfill it."
The wife of Marquis Guangling glanced at Bu Ruo and said: Look, here she comes.
Bu Ruo smiled and said, "We have to wait for the Duke's wife to speak first. After all, if it is something that is against the will of heaven, such as murder, arson, and stealing someone's husband, I can't do it even if I am the Regent Princess, right?"
Stealing someone else's husband... An unnatural look flashed across the old Duke's wife's face, but she still smiled and said, "Of course not. Our ancestors saved the late emperor, so they would never do such a thing."
"The thing is, I have a little daughter who has been in poor health since she was a child. I heard that there is a miracle doctor in the Regent's Palace, and I want to beg the princess to let that miracle doctor see my little daughter."
"Of course, I've heard that the miracle doctor doesn't usually leave the palace. If it's inconvenient, could you let my little daughter stay at the palace temporarily? When she's better, I'll let her come back. I guarantee she won't disturb the princess's peace."
The wife of the Marquis of Guangling was so angry that she laughed. Without waiting for Bu Ruo to refuse, she said directly, "Madam, is your little daughter not feeling well?"
"But I saw her arguing with the owner of the silk shop on East Street a few days ago. She even smashed the shop. The soldiers came, and I heard that they had to pay a lot of money to settle the matter."
"How could such a lively girl have been in poor health since childhood?"
The Duke's wife's face turned pale, and she smiled awkwardly, "Could it be that the Guangling Marquis' wife is mistaken? My little daughter is well-educated and well-mannered, and she would never do such a thing."
All those present were wives of officials and noble ladies. They all knew that after saying this, they should be given a way out, but Bu Ru refused.
"Madam Guangling is right. The person who smashed the shop was indeed your youngest daughter. Because the silk shop she smashed... was my princess's dowry."
No one in the front hall said anything at this time, everyone was waiting to see how the Duke's wife would end up.
"Well... I'm old and my memory is a little off. It seems that's indeed the case, but you also know that this person is always sick and naturally in a bad mood. Please don't blame me, Princess. I apologize to you on behalf of my daughter."
The old Duke's wife had already cursed Bu Ruo from head to toe in her heart, but when she thought that her little daughter would have to look at the princess's mood before she could marry into the family, she could endure it for now.
Bu Ruo waved her hand nonchalantly, "Madam, there's no need to be so rude. The money has been paid, and the matter is over. I'm not someone who would be so fussy."
Jin Congcong: Yes, you are not a human being if you care about things.
"The little girl's medical treatment..."
"Oh, about this matter, I do have a miracle doctor in my house, but he's busy treating the emperor lately and I'm afraid he can't take care of everything. After all, the emperor's health is related to the country and the people of the Great Zhou."
"But I can ask Dean Tang from the Imperial Hospital to come and see your little daughter. Dean Tang's medical skills are second to none in the Great Zhou. As long as it's not a serious illness that cannot be cured, there will be no problem."
"Today, this princess sees that Dean Tang's granddaughter, Miss Tang, is here too. This princess remembers that Miss Tang's medical skills were truly passed down from Dean Tang. Since she's here, let Miss Tang take a look first. Then, we can go back and tell Dean Tang about it so that he has an idea."
