Chapter 430 The Princess Carried to Court by the Regent
Inside the house, Xiao Tang fumbled for the compass and took a look at it.
She hasn't touched her compass since the Lantern Festival.
She touched the compass and came to Di Jingling's side. "Husband, do you think there's anything wrong with this?"
"Hmm, everything seems suspicious."
Absolutely.
Since he said that, it means that things are indeed very strange in every way.
She placed the compass on the table.
"I have to go to court tomorrow, does that mean?" She pouted, thinking that her lazy sleep was over.
Now, she and Di Jingling probably have such a good understanding that Di Jingling can tell what she's thinking just by looking at her.
"Want to sleep in?"
They actually found out.
Xiao Tang stuck out her tongue.
She shrugged, looking puzzled, and explained, "No, I just think that sleeping in a lot can beautify your skin."
She took his arm and said, "Then I will go to court with you tomorrow."
From the day they held their belated wedding ceremony, Di Jingling announced that she was the Imperial Advisor Hao Fang, a revelation that shocked many.
The young emperor was also shocked, but compared to the shock of others, he recovered the fastest.
Xiao Tang doesn't necessarily have to dress up as Hao Fang to attend court tomorrow.
The court officials dared not object, but they must have said in private that the regent was acting recklessly, actually instructing his own queen to secretly disguise herself as the imperial advisor, no wonder there was no opposition in the first place.
To avoid drawing too much attention, Xiao Tang never entered the imperial court again after the wedding.
What a pity.
The ministers who had finally managed to ignore her are now going to talk badly about her behind her back.
...
When Emperor Jingling brought Xiao Tang to court, the expressions of the officials changed.
The Regent brought the Queen to court for the first time...
Oh no, to be precise, it was the first time the princess appeared in court in her original form.
Xiao Tang was not wearing court robes.
After all, she was just a minor character.
Just as she was about to stand in her usual spot, her arm was gently tugged by Di Jingling.
Xiao Tang was puzzled.
Di Jingling said softly, "Come up, let me carry you."
Xiao Tang: ? ? ?
Is this really a bad idea of us?
The regent's words shocked the ministers standing nearby, leaving them dumbfounded.
The Regent is going to carry the Queen to court? What kind of decorum is this!
The ministers who had previously supported the regent now wore expressions that were hard to describe, while those who did not support him were muttering curses behind his back.
The young emperor glanced at his uncle and aunt, then at the ministers below, and his face flushed.
He's still just a child!
Why are you sitting here eating dog food?
Xiao Tang was forced to sit on Di Jingling's lap, her face full of exasperation.
This feeling makes me feel like... well, a femme fatale who brings ruin to the country...
Sitting in the man's lap, she subconsciously shifted her position.
I originally wanted to escape...
As it turned out, Di Jingling gripped her waist even tighter, his voice low and his tone filled with tenderness, though no one else could hear it.
"Don't move, this is the imperial court."
Xiao Tang dared not move.
She was afraid that the man would suddenly change his expression and react strongly because of this.
Soon everyone had entered the court for discussions, debating various matters, until the topic of the missing child came up, at which point Prince Yu began to wail and cry for his parents again.
"Regent, Your Majesty, you must do justice for my son! My son has suffered so much..."
【It's bad enough that you're upset, but it's wrong of you to wail and cry like that.】
[It's toxic.]
Xiao Tang picked at her ear with a look of disgust.
Even though she was so far away from Prince Yu, the man's mournful voice was so shrill that it hurt her ears.
Perhaps it was this subtle movement of hers that caught Di Jingling's eye.
He also looked at Prince Yu with displeasure: "You frightened my beloved concubine, be quiet."
Prince Yu: ? ? ? ! ! !
Di Huai Leng pointed blankly at the tip of his nose.
However, he was completely overwhelmed by the Regent's overwhelming aura and didn't dare to utter a sound.
Xiao Tang patted Di Jingling's chest.
"Husband, don't be so fierce."
Beneath my palm, I could clearly feel the man's strong heartbeat.
Her soft, sweet voice was like a gentle spring breeze in the somber hall, easing the tension of the ministers.
I was just thinking that Prince Yu was in big trouble and had suffered a terrible misfortune.
In retrospect, it was the princess who saved Prince Yu's life.
Xiao Tang smiled and called out to Di Huai Leng: "If Prince Yu really wants to mourn, I have a suggestion for you."
The man turned his head, seemingly a little nervous as well.
Xiao Tang explained, "That's right. Go back and erect a monument for your son, cry your heart out, and maybe you can cry the soul of the dead baby back."
At first glance, he thought Xiao Tang was being sarcastic.
Prince Yu glared.
But upon closer examination, it was discovered that the princess's words contained a deeper meaning!
Di Huai Leng wasn't very bright, so he didn't know and was staring blankly at himself.
Unexpectedly, the Prime Minister suddenly cried out in anguish, "According to what the Princess said, could it be that all these missing infants are...?"
They've all perished?
Xiao Tang pouted.
These words caused the ministers to exchange glances.
Just as I was feeling sad, a eunuch rushed into the hall, his face grim. "Reporting to the Regent, Your Majesty, two brocade boxes have suddenly been delivered..."
"Who sent it?" the Prime Minister asked first.
The eunuch swallowed hard, his tone a little embarrassed: "This servant didn't know either. When we saw it, the brocade box was already placed at the palace gate."
