Chapter 1198: Gift from Prince Ning's Mansion
King Cheng'en shook hands with Dabai as he wished, and then left with a triumphant look on his face.
However, he did not go back to the palace directly, but visited a few other places on the way.
Then, he took the opportunity to show off his hand that had shaken hands with the bear.
As a result, the news about Prince Cheng'en and Dabai shaking hands soon caused a little stir in the entertainment gossip of the capital.
Then, it was directly overshadowed by the explosive news that Old Man Su was conferred the title of Marquis.
"Have you heard? That Su family..."
"Which Su family?"
"He is the eldest son of the Su family, who was abandoned by the Su family, a once century-old family!"
"Oh, what happened to the legitimate son?"
"What happened? He became a marquis!"
"Oh my God! Won't the Su family regret it to death?"
"Don't you know this? I've already regretted it!"
"That's right! The plaque on the gate that has been passed down for hundreds of years has been smashed!"
"More than that! The Su family is now in ruins, it's all over..."
In the teahouse, people were excitedly talking about the Su family.
"Look at how long-winded you are! That century-old family is not worth mentioning. The current Marquis Su is the father of Su Zhuangyuan!"
"Oh my god! It turns out to be Su Zhuangyuan's father! No wonder!"
"The Emperor granted Su Zhuangyuan a marriage. Perhaps this is how Lord Su was granted the title of Marquis..."
Someone said this seriously, took a sip of tea, and smacked his lips.
"That's true. Speaking of which, Lord Su is lucky to have a good son." Someone sighed in agreement.
After saying that, he picked up the tea bowl and took a sip.
Why didn’t I give birth to such a promising son?
"What do you know?" Someone slammed the table, revealing a look of sobriety amidst the drunkenness of the world, and shouted, "Marquis Su not only has a good son, but also a wonderful daughter! Do you know Princess Fude? She's Marquis Su's daughter!"
"Oh, I see..."
A group of people showed expressions of sudden enlightenment.
At this time, not only the teahouse, but the streets and alleys of the entire capital were in an uproar, with people talking about the newly promoted Marquis Su.
Lord Su's eight generations of ancestors and descendants were soon dug out!
In the end, everyone knew that this Lord Su who appeared out of nowhere had a pair of wonderful children!
Others can’t envy it!
No matter what people say outside, Tang Bao doesn't care.
There was no other way, she had to hurry back to Tianlong Temple to paint.
"Mom, where are my third brother and his wife?" Tang Bao asked in confusion in the backyard.
There are so many happy events at home, but my third brother and sister-in-law are not here.
As Old Lady Su placed the golden crown bestowed by the emperor into the box, she said, "Your third brother took your third sister-in-law to the farm. You said that day that your third sister-in-law should go out for a walk to relax and have a good rest, and your third brother was impressed..."
Tang Bao heard this and nodded.
My third sister-in-law has been in an unstable mood, so it would be good for her to go out for a walk.
"Mom, please discuss the arrangements for the family banquet with Dad." Tang Bao said, "I'm going to stay at Tianlong Temple for a few days..."
Tang Bao was talking to Old Madam Su when a maid came in to report: "Madam, Princess, someone from Prince Ning's Mansion has delivered a gift and an invitation."
Old Mrs. Su was slightly surprised.
The Su family has no dealings with Prince Ning's Mansion.
During the days that Old Lady Su was in Beijing, she had not met Princess Ning.
I just heard that Princess Ning was extremely beautiful, and Prince Ning and the princess had a very deep relationship.
After the maid finished speaking, she presented the gift list and invitation with both hands.
Old Mrs. Su took the gift list, looked at it, and handed it to Tang Bao.
Tang Bao took a look and couldn't help being a little surprised.
"Mother, isn't this gift from Prince Ning's Mansion too generous?"
Gold, jade, gemstones, silks and satins, ginseng and angelica...
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem like a simple gift.
After hearing what her little girl said, Old Mrs. Su nodded.
It's indeed too thick.
Although the Su family is a new noble family, there is still a big gap between them and the royal palace.
Given the status of Prince Ning's Mansion, it is natural that they would not curry favor with the Su family.
Could it be that Prince Ning’s Mansion has something to ask of the Su family?
Old Mrs. Su looked at her little girl.
If Prince Ning's Mansion wants anything, it must be the little girl.
Could it be that... someone in Prince Ning's Mansion is seriously ill?
I haven't heard of this.
Old Mrs. Su looked down at the invitation in her hand.
The invitation said that Princess Ning’s birthday was coming and the Su family was invited to attend the banquet.
Old Lady Su immediately rejected the idea that someone in Prince Ning's Mansion was sick.
If someone in Prince Ning's Mansion was seriously ill, they probably wouldn't hold a grand birthday party for Princess Ning.
"The Ning Palace has sent such a generous gift, so the return gift cannot be too small, so as not to appear arrogant and disrespectful to the Palace." said Old Lady Su.
No matter what the Ning Wang Mansion’s purpose is, since they have given such a generous gift, the Su family naturally has to give a generous return gift.
After saying this, Mrs. Su felt a little troubled again.
There is no way, the gifts sent by Prince Ning’s Mansion are of too many types and complete categories.
This return gift is really hard to prepare.
You can't just give ginseng back when someone gives you ginseng, or give silk back when someone gives you silk...
As soon as Tang Bao saw Mrs. Su's expression, she guessed what she was thinking.
So, after thinking for a while, he said, "Mother, the palace is noble, and Prince Ning has always been favored by the emperor. I'm afraid there is nothing they want in the palace. Why not send someone to deliver the things in this box to them?"
Tang Bao said this and opened a brocade box on the table.
There were two bottles of beauty cream, a bottle of jade cream, several bottles of anti-aging cream, several bottles of lip balm of different colors, and several bottles of nail polish in the brocade box.
One bottle of beauty cream is scented with gardenia, and the other is scented with jasmine.
The anti-aging creams come in scents of plum blossoms, peach blossoms, and a richer osmanthus scent.
The Jade Face Cream has the scent of roses.
These things were all mixed by Tangbao himself.
Originally, these things were intended to be sent to the palace and given to the ladies in the palace.
Now, I have to give it to Princess Ning first.
