Chapter 473 I'm Not a Simp
As Xiao Tang spoke, Yang Defu's expression became somewhat complicated.
His feelings towards his younger brother were truly complicated.
If he had known about this sooner, things wouldn't have turned out this way...
He nodded silently.
Before Xiao Tang could even speak, he had already kicked his younger brother, saying, "Stop pretending, get up right now. Didn't you hear what the Princess said? Do I have to beg you to get up?"
Yang Dejiang, who was pretending to be dead with his eyes closed, was forced to open them.
He knew he couldn't escape it.
Even if those two people might not care about him at all.
He turned his head and met Xiao Tang's eyes, which seemed to be smiling but weren't.
He sensed danger approaching with just a glance.
then……
He prepared to close his eyes again.
Xiao Tang held the jade bead in her hand: "It's actually quite simple to change this. I'll engrave your name on it, and you'll know you're wrong."
This time, Yang Dejiang stopped pretending and immediately sat up.
He chuckled at Xiao Tang, "Your Highness is joking. I'm just physically weak and easily frightened."
As he said this, he still glanced at Di Jingling.
I was shocked when I saw it.
He had always heard that the regent was cruel and tyrannical, and that he should never provoke him, especially not his queen, or he would suffer a terrible death.
He finally understands now.
"I need you to send something back to the Empress Dowager. Once you deliver it, I naturally won't engrave your name on this jade bead. Do you agree?"
Yang Dejiang nodded.
Is there even a chance for him to object to this?
There's simply no way to refute it.
He even knew that if he didn't do what they asked, he probably wouldn't be able to leave the palace alive.
Xiao Tang nodded, "Okay, once I get back and finish making this, I'll give it to your elder brother. You just need to obediently deliver it."
With things already said to this extent, Yang Dejiang dared not utter a word.
Yang De lowered his head, a thousand helpless feelings washing over him.
He's so unlucky.
He met the princess on his first day in the palace.
There was also the regent.
Xiao Tang put the jade bead into her sleeve and took Di Jingling's arm. "Husband, the matter has been resolved. We can go back now."
Her slender, white hand landed on his sleeve.
It looked exceptionally good against his black robe sleeves.
Di Jingling gave a soft "hmm".
The two left hand in hand.
Yang Dejiang's nerves seemed to relax at this moment, and he collapsed to the ground with a sigh.
Yang Defu looked at him with disdain, "Look at your useless appearance. The prince and princess are magnanimous and won't hold it against you, but you'd better tell me honestly, who is your master?"
Return it to Master.
He had never heard the kid mention it before.
Now I understand completely.
This Yang De not only sought a master outside, but also recognized a thief as his father.
Yang Dejiang pursed his lips, "I...I can't say."
Snap!
He got punched on the head.
Yang Dejiang covered his head, "Why did you hit me?"
"You brat, haven't gotten a beating in a while, you don't know how much a punch hurts, do you?"
...
The Regent's Palace.
Xiao Tang took out the jade bead and examined it from side to side.
Di Jingling then asked her, "What did you see?"
"Actually, it's nothing. As long as this thing isn't kept in the West Palace, there won't be any problem."
"So what are you going to do with him next?" The man's attention was clearly focused on the jade bead. Would it have a negative impact on Xiao Tang's pregnancy?
Or perhaps...
Many guesses.
Seeing the worry in Di Jingling's eyes, Xiao Tang smiled and said, "You don't need to worry, I'll handle this myself."
"What do you mean, 'solve it yourself'?" The man's face instantly darkened further.
Clearly, he didn't like her taking all the blame upon herself.
Of course, probably only she could do something like that.
"Because this jade bead, you can crush it easily. Why don't you try breaking it?" Xiao Tang said half-jokingly.
Breaking it is not an option.
[I don't even mind this junk, why are you getting so worked up?]
The man's brow twitched slightly.
He cares about her.
He snorted coldly and turned to leave.
She's angry.
Xiao Tang watched his arrogant back and gently smacked her lips.
Before, I was worried about not having anyone to argue with, but now we've started arguing, and the main villain even gave me the cold shoulder.
The little dumpling crawled out of her arms and said, "Host, as long as you go and appease the big villain, you'll win this mission."
"It was already done before, why do I need to listen to you?"
The little pink ball said awkwardly, "Host, we can't say that, after all... you know, we still have to follow the normal procedures."
"You want me to be a simp? No way! I won't do it!"
Xiao Tang brushed the pink dumpling aside and went back inside.
As night fell, Di Jingling showed no intention of returning to coax her.
It was just a jade bead, yet he became so arrogant about it.
Xiao Tang suffered from insomnia even more that night and couldn't fall asleep.
I tossed and turned in bed, trying not to think about these things, but my thoughts just wouldn't stop.
The main villain isn't pregnant, yet her emotions are even more volatile than the pregnant woman's. How despicable!
Xiao Tang became increasingly annoyed as she thought about it.
She suddenly got up and left.
The little pink dumpling chased after her, "Host, host, where are you going and what are you doing?"
Xiao Tang ignored the little dumpling and knocked directly on Ruyi's door.
