Chapter 1485: Our aunt has someone above her
Tang Bao looked at the pile of amulets in her hand and didn't know what to say.
If you didn't know this, you would think she was buying it wholesale.
Tang Bao was deeply moved and said, "Thank you, ladies! I will definitely come back soon and bring you gifts..."
When it came to gifts, Tang Bao quickly took a large wooden box from Shi Liu's hand.
"Grandmother, these are your health pills...Aunt, this is your beauty cream...Royal Concubine, this is your anti-aging cream...Shufei Concubine, these are your..."
Tang Bao distributed it in a large circle.
The women in the harem became more and more reluctant to part with such a lovely girl.
"Mmmmm... Tangtang, I can't bear to leave you..."
"Oh, oh, oh... Tangtang, you must come back soon..."
"Mmmmm...Tangtang..."
The Empress Dowager looked at the little girl surrounded by a group of daughters-in-law, her heart filled with emotion.
Throughout history, there is probably only one little girl like this who has such ability to make the women in the harem go around in circles.
"Grandson pays homage to the Imperial Grandmother."
Xuanyuan Jin stepped forward and saluted the Queen Mother.
Only then did the Empress Dowager notice that her grandson had also arrived.
"Jin'er, you've arrived just in time." The Empress Dowager said eagerly, "Fuya, your brother the Crown Prince will be your grandmother..."
"Grandma, I will take good care of Tangbao." Xuanyuan Jin said helplessly.
The Empress Dowager: “…”
Well, I've hurt my grandson's self-esteem.
However, thinking of Tang Bao's incredible luck, I still feel that it is more appropriate to entrust my grandson to Tang Bao's protection.
A group of women in the harem looked at Xuanyuan Jin and then at Tang Bao, and they all felt more at ease leaving Xuanyuan Jin to Tang Bao.
The Empress is tolerant and generous. Xuanyuan Jin is the Emperor's legitimate son and the Crown Prince.
Compared with other princes, they hope that Prince Xuanyuan Jin will be able to inherit the throne naturally in the future.
Otherwise, if other princes inherit the throne, there will be another empress dowager in the harem to put pressure on them.
Haha, forget it.
They would rather always be below the Queen.
Anyway, I've gotten used to it over the years.
With the Emperor protecting the Empress, they couldn't win the fight and had already accepted their fate.
"Your Highness, although Tangtang is young, she is a girl after all. She is considerate and sensible. It would be good to let her take care of you more often." The Imperial Concubine carefully chose her words and said, "You are a man, so it is inevitable that you may be careless in some aspects of your life..."
"Yes, that's right! That's what I mean. Our Tangtang is the most considerate and caring..."
"That's right, our Tangtang..."
A group of palace concubines praised Tang Bao for her attentiveness and her efforts to save the face of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
I have to say that as a woman in the harem, she definitely has a high level of skill in the art of speaking.
The Empress smiled and said, "My sisters are absolutely right. Jin'er, Fu'ya, you two must take care of each other and come back soon."
Tang Bao and Xuanyuan Jin looked at each other and nodded at the same time.
Tang Bao left Ersansiwuhong to the Empress Dowager, and went to the backyard to feed Erbai and Sanbai again, then hurried out of the palace and went to the Xia family.
Time is too tight, she needs to go and tell her godmother.
What's more, she was still thinking about Xia Siya.
However, when Tang Bao arrived at the Xia family, she found nothing.
Mrs. Xia has already gone to the Su family.
"I really don't know what the emperor is thinking." Madam Xia held Madam Su's hand, full of complaints, and said, "How can a little girl like our Fu Ya go to such a foreign and barbaric place?"
“Ahem!”
Lord Xia coughed twice, signaling Madam Xia to be careful with her words.
"The Emperor must have given this decree careful consideration," Lord Xia said. "This is a matter concerning the diplomatic relations between the two countries and the stability of the border, so we must naturally consider the overall situation."
Compared to marrying Tang Bao to Northern Qi as a peace agreement, Lord Xia felt that sending Tang Bao as an envoy to Western Qin as a princess was barely acceptable.
After all, choose the lesser of two evils.
As an official appointed by the court, Lord Xia naturally understood the importance of Emperor Tianxi sending Xuanyuan Jin and Tang Bao to Western Qin.
Rarely, Mrs. Xia curled her lips after hearing what Lord Xia said.
"Our Fuya is just a little girl. Those kinds of family and national affairs are men's business!" Madam Xia said dissatisfiedly: "Fuya has to take the lead in everything. What do men do?"
Master Xia: "..."
Other men in the Su family: "..."
Ashamed together.
Tang Bao came in and heard what Mrs. Xia said.
"Godmother, you can't look down on us women." Tang Bao said with a smile: "What men can do, we women can do too. Isn't there a saying, who says women are inferior to men?"
Madam Xia: “…”
Is there such a saying?
Why hasn't she heard of it?
Okay, if my goddaughter says yes, then yes.
How can her knowledge compare to that of her goddaughter?
"Fuya, you're coming all this way, how can I worry about you? When I think about you not being able to eat or sleep well out there...I'm so worried..."
Mrs. Xia's tears fell.
Tang Bao quickly took out a handkerchief and wiped Mrs. Xia's tears.
"Godmother, don't worry. You know I'm a lucky star. I've never had trouble eating or sleeping since I was a child. It's whoever offends me who will have trouble eating or sleeping..."
"Yes, yes! Our aunt has someone above her!" Mrs. Su pointed proudly.
The sisters-in-law of the Su family: "That's right..."
Tang Bao: “…”
"That's true." Madam Xia quickly clasped her hands together, bowed, and said with a pious face, "God, please continue to bless our Fu Ya, bless our Fu Ya to be safe and sound, and come back soon..."
When Old Mrs. Su and several sisters-in-law of the Su family saw this, they all clasped their hands together and prayed to God.
Although they knew that Tang Bao had been lucky since childhood, nothing was absolute, so it would be strange for them to be at ease.
When she thought about the long journey and how far Tang Bao was going to such a far place, her heart was in knots.
Tang Bao naturally understood that everyone was worried, so she could only try her best to comfort them with a smile, coaxing this one and that one.
"Godmother, where is Sister Siya?"
Tang Bao didn't see Xia Siya and couldn't help but feel curious.
Mrs. Xia's expression froze.
Then, he sighed and said, "I locked him up."
Old Mrs. Su and others were all shocked.
"What's going on?" Old Mrs. Su asked in confusion.
Mrs. Xia couldn't help but feel a headache when she thought of what her daughter said.
The Su family is not an outsider, so Mrs. Xia simply didn't hide what she had been holding in her heart.
He told the whole story of the Zheng family in detail.
The Su family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looked at each other.
So much has happened in these two days.
Compared to this, the incident in which Princess Linghua beat up Zheng Ziqian in the teahouse was nothing.
With the Zheng family's deliberate manipulation and the people in Cheng'en Palace keeping silent about it, this matter was directly suppressed.
To the extent that neither the mother-in-law nor the daughter-in-law of the Su family had heard of the rumors.
