Chapter 1873: Double Standards Are Not Wrong
Tang Bao didn't say it, but Xuanyuan Jin spoke.
"I won't save anyone who doesn't matter!"
Xuanyuan Jin had a cold face and looked as if he would not tolerate any argument.
Everyone: “…”
They naturally knew who this "insignificant person" was.
With the same aspiration, everyone looked at Princess Zimo.
After all, they all knew that the princess came after Xuanyuan Jin.
It has to be said that the fact that Princess Zimo almost climbed up with her own ability made them look at this willful little princess with a new respect.
Princess Zimo felt embarrassed and sad after hearing Xuanyuan Jin's words.
Did she really annoy him so much?
Would he rather watch her fall to her death than save her?
He had clearly saved her when they were being chased by the swarm of bees...
"My brother speaks frankly, princess, don't take it to heart." Tang Bao quickly said: "You know, my brother is still a child at heart..."
"I'm not a child anymore!"
Before Tang Bao could finish her words, Xuanyuan Jin interrupted her unhappily.
Tang Bao: “…”
Well, you are not a child, I am a child!
But the girl came here for you after all, can't you give her some face?
If the two countries marry in the future...
"That's right! Your Highness the Crown Prince is not a child anymore. Remember to pay attention to the distinction between men and women in the future!" the young scholar suddenly said.
"That's right! Your Highness the Crown Prince has grown up. He should remember to keep his distance from his aunt in the future!" Da Pan quickly agreed.
Er Pan also said anxiously: "That's right..."
Xuanyuan Jin gave the Su brothers a cold look and said, "Stupid! I'm not a child, and Tang Bao is still a child. How can there be any big barriers between men and women?"
The Su brothers: "..."
here we go again!
The Su brothers gritted their teeth.
Just tell me, when will my aunt grow up?
This interruption broke the awkward atmosphere.
However, Princess Zimo still felt extremely uncomfortable.
After all, there is no harm without comparison.
Tang Bao has so many people caring for her and is held in the palm of Xuanyuan Jin's hand, but in the end, no one cares about her.
If she had fallen and died just now, these people would probably be happier, right?
At this moment, Princess Zimo not only felt uncomfortable, but also a little discouraged.
She is the princess of Southern Xinjiang and has been pampered since she was a child. How could she have ever suffered such neglect and grievance?
Will she continue to persevere?
She really wanted to go home to find her father and brother...
"Don't worry, even if you fell down just now, you will be fine." Shi Liu walked over and patted Princess Zimo's shoulder, with a soothing tone in her voice.
Xia Siya also said: "Yes, there are so many people below, they won't let you fall."
Tang Bao glanced at the young scholar and said with a smile, "You didn't see that even Cheng Yao was ready to go in case you fell. He could catch you and prevent you from getting hurt."
Princess Zimo listened to what they said and looked at everyone with some disbelief.
Everyone nodded.
Princess Zimo suddenly felt a warmth in her heart.
Although I haven't been completely cured, I don't miss home as much anymore.
Finally, Princess Zimo's gaze fell on the young scholar's face and asked, "Will you really save me?"
The young scholar looked a little unnatural.
Then, he said with a serious face: "Of course! The princess is the princess of Southern Xinjiang. If something happens to her while she is with us, it will definitely affect the diplomatic relations between the two countries. As a citizen of Dayan, Chengyao will definitely not let such a thing happen!"
The young scholar's words were powerful, resounding and righteous!
With such a comparison, everyone couldn't help but think of what Xuanyuan Jin had just said.
Your Highness the Crown Prince's vision is a bit narrow...
However, everyone looked at Tang Bao.
It seems that when His Royal Highness said that, they didn't object at all, and they were quite supportive...
Don’t ask why, the answer is that they are happy to do it!
Double standards are not wrong, and treating people differently is not wrong.
“Squeak!”
The Wealth Rat, perched on the tree trunk above everyone's heads, cried out impatiently.
It wants to go back quickly to see its treasures!
It also wants to take a nap on the baby!
"Okay, let's follow our Jinjin..."
"Yes, yes, Jinjin is getting anxious..."
"That's right... let's go, let's go..."
"Be careful, look out for each other, don't fall..."
Everyone talked and followed the Wealth Rat forward.
Cai Shu led the way in front, and looked back at Tang Bao from time to time, calling out to Tang Bao a few times, as if urging Tang Bao to hurry up.
It is not difficult to walk on the trunk of the sacred tree.
Several thick branches branched out from the trunk, extending in all directions and forming a series of "grooves" in the middle of the trunk.
In fact, it is fortunate that many of these branches grow downwards, otherwise the white elephants below would not be able to eat the leaves of the sacred tree.
Tang Bao and Xuanyuan Jin followed the Rat of Wealth and walked along the "ravine" in front, and soon discovered the secret.
There is a tree hole in the middle of the trunk.
At first glance, it looked as if the heart of the tree had been hollowed out.
The Rat stood in front of the tree hole, called out to Tangbao twice, and then went straight down.
Tang Bao and Xuanyuan Jin looked at each other, then walked over and looked down.
The two people could only see a few meters away in the dappled light that filtered through the leaves.
The entrance to the cave is about half a meter in diameter, and becomes wider as it goes down.
Then it became pitch black and I couldn't see anything clearly.
Xuanyuan Jin took out a night pearl and threw it down.
Tang Bao: “…”
What a waste.
The faint light fell rapidly, and after a while, a very slight sound was heard.
Tang Bao leaned over and looked down.
Even though she had good eyesight, she couldn't see the light emitted by the night pearl.
"This hole is so deep." Tang Bao exclaimed.
Xuanyuan Jin nodded.
The others followed and when they saw the tree hole, they all showed curious expressions.
"Is this the entrance to the treasure?" Princess Linghua asked excitedly, "Is the center of this tree filled with treasures?"
"There's no treasure inside the tree." Tang Bao said with certainty: "It should lead to the underground."
After all, no one in the White Elephant Tribe knew there was a tree hole here.
From this we can see that this tree hole has become like this as it gradually expanded as the sacred tree grew.
Perhaps a long time ago, there was only a tiny hole in the middle of the sacred tree, so small that it was not noticeable, as if it was caused by insects.
Tang Bao couldn't help but feel curious. Was this a far-sighted design by the owner of the treasure, or was it that the tree hole was accidentally connected to the treasure hiding place and was discovered by the Wealth Rat?
“Squeak!”
The cry of the Rat of Wealth came from below.
"Bring me the rope!" Xuanyuan Jin said.
Zhao Wu quickly handed the rope to Xuanyuan Jin.
Xuanyuan Jin raised his hand, and one end of the rope went around a thick branch with lush branches and leaves and returned to Xuanyuan Jin's hand.
