Chapter 1125: This is actually confirmed
Tang Bao calmly peeled another lychee and took a small bite under the gazes of everyone.
Cool, smooth, sweet...
Tang Bao narrowed her eyes slightly, and a happy smile appeared on her little face.
So delicious!
Seeing this, Xuanyuan Jin couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth again.
Then, he looked at Emperor Tianxi's desk.
There were naturally lychees on Emperor Tianxi's table, and a whole plate of them.
Xuanyuan Jin pursed his lips and forced himself not to ask for it immediately.
"In that case, this is a very happy event." The Queen Mother looked at Prince Cheng'en and smiled as she instructed, "Remember to have the servants in the mansion take good care of Concubine Liu."
"Don't worry, sister-in-law. This time, I will definitely make Concubine Liu a treasure. Hahahaha... The baby in her belly is the treasure of our palace, hahahaha..."
King Cheng'en smiled and looked at this and that.
The way he showed off was really asking for a beating.
Many people turned their heads away, their lips twitching, too lazy to look at King Cheng'en's appearance.
Emperor Tianxi smiled and said, "In that case, congratulations, Uncle Wang."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Prince Cheng'en grinned and laughed heartily, saying, "Next year, I will bring my son to the palace and pay my respects to Your Majesty. Hahahaha..."
Although other court officials despised Prince Cheng'en's arrogance, since the emperor had congratulated him, they naturally also congratulated him, either sincerely or falsely.
"Congratulations, Your Highness..."
"Congratulations..."
King Cheng'en was beaming with joy. He clasped his hands together, grinned, and said to everyone, "Let's celebrate together. When my son is one month old, everyone must go to the palace for a buffet. Hahahaha..."
Everyone: “…”
It's unbearable to watch.
Someone said with a smile: "Your Highness is still strong in his old age, and it is a great blessing that the iron tree has blossomed. We will naturally come to bother you when the time comes."
"Hahahaha... This is all thanks to the amazing skills of the little genius doctor. I drank a few doses of medicine and started coughing..."
Prince Cheng'en hadn't finished speaking when he suddenly realized that he had let something slip and started to choke and cough.
"Um, no, it was Concubine Liu who got pregnant after drinking a few doses of the medicine prescribed by the young genius doctor..."
King Cheng'en waved his hands repeatedly to explain.
Everyone: “…”
Their eyes became a little subtle, and they felt that they had witnessed a real-life example of the trickery of trying to cover up one's own guilt.
Seeing this, King Cheng'en glared and shouted, "What are you looking at? Do you think there's something wrong with me?"
Everyone: “…”
What do you think?
We didn't think so originally, but since you shouted it out, it has become a reality.
Many men exchanged a knowing look.
However, in front of so many female relatives, especially many unmarried girls, no one said anything.
What's more, the Emperor and the Empress Dowager are here.
Emperor Tianxi's eyes darkened, and he glanced at the concubines sitting below without any expression.
Concubine Shu and Concubine Xian were talking, as if they didn't hear what Prince Cheng'en said.
Concubine De still looked aloof and arrogant.
The imperial concubine is taking care of her daughter Hua An...
Emperor Tianxi nodded secretly to show his satisfaction.
Everyone in the hall laughed it off and ignored King Cheng'en's explanation.
Prime Minister Zheng felt very disappointed.
He was able to become the prime minister of a country and an important official in the court, so he must be quite smart.
It was just a blind spot before.
I never thought that a woman’s inability to give birth might be the man’s problem.
After all, no man in the world has ever thought about such a thing.
In their inherent cognition, as long as a woman does not give birth to a child, it is the woman’s fault!
Now, Prince Cheng'en's explanation has actually broken Prime Minister Zheng's cognition.
There are so many women in the palace, but no children have been born in these years.
The one with the problem is probably the Emperor...
Who dares to say that the emperor is in poor health?
Don’t you want your head anymore?
wrong!
Perhaps... this was what the Emperor originally intended...
Prime Minister Zheng was shocked.
Immediately, many things began to connect in my mind.
Ever since the witchcraft case, the young prince was banished from the capital, and no more princes were born in the palace...
My mother had searched for so many folk remedies for conceiving a child and sent them to the palace, but my sister had always been extremely indifferent to the matter. She had no intention of giving birth to a son. Instead, she suggested that my mother let nature take its course and not be too demanding...
The more Prime Minister Zheng thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he couldn't help but look at Concubine Zheng opposite him.
Concubine Zheng seemed to have anticipated something and also looked towards Prime Minister Zheng.
The brother and sister's eyes met, and a hint of bitterness flashed in Concubine Zheng's eyes.
Prime Minister Zheng: “…”
There is no more doubt in my heart.
I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
I wonder if the Zheng family's search for medicine these days has reached the emperor's ears and caused him to dislike it...
Prime Minister Zheng was shocked, frightened and regretful.
Concubine Zheng looked away as if nothing had happened, patted the Sixth Princess's head, and said softly, "Eat slowly. You are young, so you shouldn't eat too many lychees, otherwise it will hurt your stomach..."
"Yes, I know, Mother."
As the Sixth Princess spoke, she picked up a piece of tender white lychee flesh from the small plate and brought it to Concubine Zheng's mouth.
"Eat it too, mother. It's so sweet."
When Concubine Zheng saw her daughter being so filial and well-behaved, a smile appeared on her face.
"Okay, mother will eat too."
Concubine Zheng opened her mouth and ate the lychee from her daughter's hand.
As for whether it is in accordance with the rules or decent, it is not important at this moment.
She is destined to be childless in this life.
Fortunately, the emperor took her into consideration for her obedience and gave her a daughter...
The Zheng brothers and sisters exchanged glances in tacit understanding, but the families of other concubines did not think about the emperor's problem.
After all, how could the emperor not be able to do it!
As a result, many people looked at Tang Bao with more and more eager eyes.
He was thinking about how to take advantage of this hunting opportunity to ask the Empress in Tangbao Palace to take his pulse and diagnose him.
Who knows, maybe next year, I'll have a prince grandson...
**
Early the next morning, Tang Bao received the emperor's reward before she had even had breakfast.
——A basket of lychees!
"The emperor saw that you, the princess, like to eat lychees, so when he woke up this morning, he ordered that all the lychees in the palace be given to you as a reward." Eunuch Liu said with a smile.
Tang Bao was naturally very happy.
Anyone would be happy to get such a good reward just by coming together.
"Please trouble Grandpa Liu to make this trip." Tang Bao said with a smile: "Sister Pomegranate, give Grandpa Liu some silver to buy some wine."
Shi Liu agreed and took out a purse to give to Eunuch Liu.
Eunuch Liu waved his hands quickly and said, "Thank you, Princess. This is my duty and I dare not ask for your reward. Besides, you helped me cure my cold legs, and I will never be able to repay you in this lifetime..."
You know, although he is the emperor's trusted eunuch, he is still a lowly servant.
Given his status, he was not qualified to be examined by the imperial physician in the palace.
Tang Bao was a princess, so he was naturally very grateful that she could treat him.
The more Eunuch Liu spoke, the more grateful he became, and he looked like he wanted to kowtow to Tang Bao.
Tang Bao smiled and said, "Grandpa Liu, you're too kind. You've come to our house so many times over the years, and you and my dad have a long-standing friendship..."
When Eunuch Liu heard Tang Bao say this, he immediately smiled.
Families like the Su family who don't care about family background are extremely rare.
Thanks to his foresight, he has been thinking about establishing a good relationship with the Su family over the years.
Now, he has completely firmly grasped the support of the Su family.
