Chapter 890: Actually, it’s not necessary
"Miss, are you okay?"
Pomegranate ran over quickly.
Tang Bao's face turned red from coughing, and she tried to wave her hands.
She really didn't expect that Princess Linghua would actually call herself "poor nun"?
Tang Bao finally stopped coughing and looked at Princess Linghua with an expression that was hard to describe.
"My Lady, as far as I know, the nuns in the nunnery call themselves poor nuns, and they have all taken tonsure." Tang Bao kindly reminded: "How about you shave your head too?"
Princess Linghua: "I..."
He subconsciously touched his hair.
She can't bear it!
Especially when I think of the monks in the temple with their bald heads, I feel even more reluctant to leave.
Because it’s too ugly!
She used to call herself that, and although some people tried to dissuade her, no one ever made a fuss about the hair on her head.
There’s no way, who dares to say it?
If he reminds her, and if this stubborn princess shaves her hair, won’t Prince Cheng’en fight her to the death?
However, someone has reminded me now.
After hearing what Tang Bao said, several maids and old women couldn't help but get anxious.
What if the princess really shaves her hair on impulse?
"How dare you! Who are you? How dare you instigate my princess to shave her head?" a woman shouted angrily, "My princess is a noble lady. She is cultivating with her hair uncut and accumulating merit. How can a little girl like you have the right to interfere?"
Pomegranate didn't want to hear it.
Your princess is as precious as gold and jade, but my lady is even more precious!
How dare you shout at my young lady? You really don't know how to live or die!
Shi Liu rushed over, pinched the woman's waist, and almost hit her in the face.
"Looking for a fight?! How dare you raise your voice to my young lady?! Who do you think you are? Besides, my young lady is just telling the truth, and your princess is just trying to cover up her mistake!" Shi Liu said with a disdainful expression on her face. "And you're talking about accumulating merit? That's a joke! Will your princess be able to pray for salvation, or will she slay demons and bring benefit to the world?"
The old woman: "..."
Her princess doesn't know anything.
Tang Bao stood under the Bodhi tree, looked at Princess Linghua, and kindly reminded her again: "In fact, if you really want to accumulate merit, you should repair bridges and roads, pity the poor and the weak, or donate your property to help poor families..."
After hearing what Tang Bao said, Princess Linghua had a thoughtful expression on her face.
When the maids and servants saw this, they became even more anxious.
If the princess really wanted to donate the land of the palace, the prince would definitely agree.
Anyway, the prince and the princess, father and daughter, never do things according to common sense.
That might force them to live frugally.
New Year rewards and other things may be cancelled.
The round-faced maid in green said anxiously, "Princess, please don't listen to her nonsense. She is deliberately..."
"Do you think I'm stupid?" Princess Linghua glanced at the maid and said, "The palace's property belongs to my future brother, so naturally I can't donate it. Otherwise, the palace will become an empty shell, and how will he squander it in the future?"
Tang Bao: “…”
The word "waste" is used so confidently.
The round-faced maid couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after hearing what Princess Linghua said.
As for whether the princess would have a future brother in this life, she naturally didn't dare to mention it.
"However, my share of the money, silver, and jewelry can be donated." Princess Linghua added, "Why not send a few people to check it out one day and donate it all."
Round-faced maid: "..."
My heart skipped a beat.
His face turned pale in an instant.
She was responsible for managing Princess Linghua's hairpins, jewelry, and private money.
Princess Linghua has been pampered since she was a child, so naturally she has no concept of money.
I never ask about it normally.
Especially since I came to Tianlong Temple in recent years, I have become less interested in those yellow and white things.
So, she secretly embezzled a lot of it.
If the princess sends someone to check the accounts...
The round-faced maid broke out in a cold sweat.
Then, he glared at Tang Bao fiercely.
It’s all caused by this little girl!
After listening to what Princess Linghua said, Tang Bao felt that the princess could still be saved.
But, this temper...
Tang Bao looked at Princess Linghua and asked curiously, "Are all the girls from the wealthy families in the capital so unruly, headstrong, arrogant, and domineering?"
Moreover, he doesn't seem to be very smart.
This was the Bai Shuqing she had seen.
Although the princess in front of me is trying hard to suppress her nature, her inner arrogance can still be seen.
"How dare you! You..."
As soon as the round-faced maid opened her mouth, Tang Bao gave her a sharp look.
The maid felt a chill in her body and subconsciously closed her mouth.
"My princess, the maidservants are interrupting the masters when they are talking. The rules in your palace are not very good." Tang Bao said casually.
I don't mind at all, I'll just flatter this maid.
The way the maid looked at her just now was as if she wanted to eat her.
After Tang Bao finished speaking, she glanced at the round-faced maid.
Sorry, I think you're in trouble.
After hearing what Tang Bao said, Princess Linghua glared at the round-faced maid.
"Guiyuan, go back and recite the palace's rules several times! Don't bring shame to the palace!" Princess Linghua ordered.
Guiyuan bit her lip and said timidly, "Yes."
The other maids and servants didn't dare to say a word.
Guiyuan was the one the princess trusted the most, but now he was punished because of someone else's words.
Princess Linghua looked at Tang Bao and said, "I am sorry for the rudeness of this servant, young benefactor."
Tang Bao nodded.
"Oh, that's easy to say. It's not too funny."
Princess Linghua: "..."
Princess Linghua took a deep breath and silently recited a few Buddhist scriptures in her heart.
Then, he looked at Tang Bao and said sincerely: "This little donor, thank you for your advice. I... After I go back, I will have someone take inventory of my property and donate it."
Princess Linghua stuttered and erased the word "poor nun".
After all, she is a teenage girl.
Even though he was stubborn and stayed in Tianlong Temple for three years without returning to the palace, he was reluctant to shave his head.
As for the reason why she ran here, she had already forgotten it because she was unknowingly led by Tang Bao.
"Princess Linghua has a heart for good, which is naturally the greatest kindness." Tang Bao said sincerely.
After saying that, he thought about it and gave a few more suggestions in consideration of Princess Linghua's donation of property.
"In fact, praying to gods and Buddhas is not as good as seeking medical advice." Tang Bao said.
Tang Bao naturally knew that what Princess Linghua wanted was to have a younger brother.
Moreover, she felt that the one with the problem should be Princess Linghua's father.
After all, most wealthy families in this era have many wives and concubines.
It would probably be even more so in the palace.
Since so many women cannot give birth to children, the problem must lie with the prince.
After hearing Tang Bao's words, Princess Linghua said with a bitter face, "Do you think we haven't looked for it? I have consulted countless famous doctors in the world, but it's all in vain!"
After Princess Linghua finished speaking, she looked towards the distant night sky and swore, "If there really is a famous doctor who can help us add a young prince to our palace, I would be happy to kowtow to him and work like a slave for the rest of my life!"
Tang Bao: “…”
Actually, it is not necessary.
**
Imperial Palace.
"Still not here?" Xuanyuan Jin frowned tightly, glanced at the snowflakes fluttering outside the door, and a hint of worry flashed in his eyes.
In this snowy weather, I wonder if the little girl will catch a cold?
Wang Zhong's face was also full of worry.
These days, he braves the cold wind every day to pick people up at the city gate.
Unfortunately, I have to wait in vain all day every day.
"Master, I'm afraid you've been delayed on the road." Wang Zhong said, "Now that it's snowing, the roads are becoming increasingly difficult to travel. I wonder if Fuya..."
"I'll pick him up in person tomorrow!" Xuanyuan Jin made the decision immediately.
If you can’t catch it, just keep going back the way you came!
I always meet little girls!
After Xuanyuan Jin finished speaking, he instructed Wang Zhong, "Go and prepare some quilts, charcoal stoves, and other things to keep warm immediately. Put them on the carriage. Also, have Aunt Pang make some hot soup to dispel the cold. Oh, and make sure it tastes good, otherwise the little girl won't like it..."
Xuanyuan Jin gave the order while looking at the heavy snow with worry.
Little did he know that the little girl he was worried about was standing in the heavy snow, holding a warm little hand warmer, planning to build a snowman early the next morning.
