Chapter 407 Complaints from the Queen and Princess
Outside the hall, the sky was completely bright.
The golden morning light penetrates the carved window lattices and sprinkles on the mirror-like golden brick floor, reflecting dots of jumping light.
In the Pineapple Palace, the children have been led by palace servants to the Wenya Palace to study.
Wen Li'er leaned on the soft couch, her fingertips unconsciously tapping the white jade paperweight on the low table. Her eyes fell on the clear sky outside the window, but her mind drifted far away.
After a while, she picked up the pen and wrote a letter to that bad boy.
First, he scolded the man severely, and then he earnestly instructed him that when he and Xiongxiong left the palace, they should listen to their uncles Prince of Liang and Prince of Lang, and not act naughty, cause trouble, or bully the weak by relying on their status.
The most important thing is to pay attention to safety and return safely.
After writing, he called Wanquan and asked him to deliver the letter.
Wanquan immediately took the order and left.
Before the anger and worry in my heart had completely subsided, the palace servants' report came from outside the palace:
"Your Majesty, Princess Lin requests an audience."
Wen Li'er immediately understood, and a bitter smile of sympathy appeared on her face.
She rubbed her still sore waist and straightened her expression: "Please come in."
Not long after, a graceful figure slowly walked over.
Ye Caiwei was wearing a water-colored gold brocade palace dress with a lotus pattern. The dress was tailored to her body, outlining her figure which was still slim but more plump and mature than when she was a girl.
The skirt is paired with six bias-cut horse-face skirts in the same color. The skirt is wide but not cumbersome. When she walks, her steps are like the wind, and the hem of the skirt billows like waves of flowers.
Her black hair was tied into a simple and elegant bun. The bun was high, revealing her smooth and full forehead, but her face looked a little haggard.
I guess it was because of Xiongxiong’s matter that I didn’t get a good rest last night.
After Ye Caiwei entered the palace, she bowed to Wen Li'er and said, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to the Empress. May the Empress be blessed with good health."
Wen Li'er felt a little helpless. With their good relationship, there was no need to go through all these empty formalities.
But Ye Caiwei insisted that etiquette could not be abolished, so she let her do as she pleased.
Seeing that the maid behind her was holding an exquisite mahogany food box, Wen Li'er's eyes immediately lit up.
"What delicious food did Sister Ye bring me today?"
Ye Caiwei sneered, "It's not for you, it's for the children."
Wen Li'er said, "I don't care. I want to eat first."
Ye Caiwei was amused by her and the sadness she had felt all night long dissipated a lot in the joyful laughter.
Nanny Qin personally stepped forward and took the food box from the maid.
These are some new dim sum from Zhenbaozhai.
Wen Lier took a piece of lactose ice cream and took a bite. It was soft, smooth and delicious, leaving a lingering fragrance on her lips and teeth.
Then he ate another piece and then stopped.
Ye Caiwei was also very happy to see that she liked it.
She sat beside Wen Li'er's soft couch and couldn't help but scold her son:
"Tell me what the hell is going on! Xiongxiong and Xiaoxiao, these two naughty boys, haven't even grown all their fur yet, and they dare to follow others and leave a letter to escape and venture into the world. This is really... really pissing me off!"
She has always been gentle and virtuous, and only reveals her true nature in front of Wen Li'er and other sisters-in-law.
Seeing that she was very angry, Wen Li'er felt like she had found an outlet for the frustration in her heart.
She sighed helplessly, grabbed another piece of cake and took a big bite, gritted her teeth and said:
"Who says it's not? You haven't seen Xiaoxiao's letter. It's so well-written, full of quotations and clear logic. He used all the words his father used to say! And he even put a smile on his face to appease me! This brat! Just like his father, he doesn't forget to give you a sweet treat even when he's pissing you off!"
“Yes, yes, yes!”
Ye Caiwei slammed the table, as if she had found resonance.
"That bastard of my Xiongxiong! The letter was so crookedly written, it was filled with 'Mother, please don't look for me, I'm leaving' and 'The journey is long, don't worry about me'! He also said something like 'The food in the capital isn't enough to fill my stomach, I want to go and try some delicious food from all over the world'! Isn't that infuriating? That heartless Prince Lin actually stroked his chin and said 'You're ambitious, kid!' I almost pulled his ears off!"
When talking about their respective husbands, the queen and the princess instantly escalated their complaints.
"The Emperor too!"
When Wen Li'er thought of last night, a suspicious blush appeared on her face, which was then replaced by anger.
"He's so good, he already knew it! And he said something like 'let the little eagle go out and learn to fly'! He thinks everything will be fine if he sends secret guards? That's just flesh and blood from my body! It's so small! There are swords and knives out there, and people are treacherous. What if it gets bumped, or meets a bad guy... I don't even dare to think about it!"
As she spoke, Wen Li'er's eyes became a little red again, and she forgot to eat the half piece of cake in her hand.
Ye Caiwei felt the same way, and immediately moved closer to hold Wen Lier's hand, her voice choked with sobs.
"That's right! Two little brats! All they do all day is play with spears and sticks, so reckless! Just imagine if the two of them were together, plus those two unreliable ones, Prince Lang and Prince Liang... I'm really worried!"
Wen Li'er completely agreed with her.
Although Prince Lang is a martial arts expert, he is now on par with his uncle Prince Wu.
But his personality is really unreliable. He might lose Xiaoxiao and Xiongxiong while walking.
These two little kids have only learned a little bit of Kung Fu, so they will definitely not be able to defeat the bad guys if they meet them.
Besides, Prince Liang's kung fu is not much better than the two younger ones.
If there is real danger, Prince Lang will protect the three.
Oh, the more I think about it, the more worried I become...
Ye Caiwei wiped away her tears and cursed softly, "Last night, Prince Lin praised Xiong Xiong for 'having the same charm he had in his youth'! Bah! What charm did he have in his youth? He was still just a fool! I was so angry that I had a huge argument with him last night and slept with my pillow hugged!"
"My Majesty..." Wen Li'er thought of Yan Shixu's "comfort" method last night, and her cheeks became hotter, and she felt embarrassed and annoyed.
"He...he didn't make a fuss, but...he was just more irritating! He just kept making trouble!"
She passed it over vaguely and brought the topic back to the child.
"Look at these two little bastards. They're always bickering and fighting in the palace, snatching snacks and toys. When they're in a good mood, they almost want to wear the same pants. This audacious idea must have been thought up together! It's really worrying!"
These two women of noble status got together and talked to each other, criticizing their "unreliable" husbands and "audacious" sons from head to toe.
The hall was filled with their "accusations", as if this could dispel some of the worries in their hearts.
They finally stopped when they were tired.
Ye Caiwei sighed deeply and said regretfully, "That brat didn't even think of taking me, his mother, with him. You know, the farthest I've ever traveled is to Prince Lin's fiefdom. Actually, I also want to go out and see the world."
Wen Lier: "..."
She looked at Ye Caiwei in disbelief.
"Sister Ye, do you have this idea? Does Prince Lin know..."
