Chapter 955: Treating her like her own daughter-in-law
After hearing what Tang Bao said, the Queen Mother showed a gentle smile on her stunning face that made people feel like spring breeze.
"Aunt, look, what good thing did Fuya give you again?"
After the Queen finished speaking, she reached out and picked up the box and was about to open it.
Tang Bao quickly held down the Queen's hand, and a cunning light flashed in her big eyes, which were as bright as the stars in the sky.
"Don't be impatient, Auntie. I'll take a closer look after I leave."
Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't accept it.
Tang Bao deliberately kept the secret, stood up with a smile, and said goodbye to the Queen.
"...Come visit my aunt some other day. I hope she will be happy every day." Tang Bao said with a smile.
The Queen Mother did not try to persuade him to stay, but ordered someone to open the window.
Then, through the window, I looked at Tang Bao's petite figure walking happily among the plum trees.
Ruyu's face showed a trance, as if she saw her former self, who was also so carefree and full of joy...
I don’t know if it was a tacit understanding, but neither Tang Bao nor the Queen mentioned Xuanyuan Jin during this meeting.
At the same time, there was no mention of the Queen's imprisonment.
The Queen Mother did not withdraw her gaze until Tang Bao disappeared from view.
Then, he picked up the box on the table and gently opened it...
His expression suddenly changed.
An expression of disbelief appeared on her face, which was always as elegant as orchid.
On this side, Tang Bao and Shi Liu came out of Kunhe Palace. Under the strange gazes of the imperial guards on both sides of the gate, they continued to stroll in the palace with a calm and leisurely attitude.
"Miss, the Empress is so beautiful." Shi Liu sighed, "No wonder people say that the Third Prince is so good-looking. It turns out he has such a beautiful mother."
Tang Bao smiled and asked, "Why do you say that? Could it be that Sister Pomegranate thinks that brother is not good-looking? What kind of guy does Sister Pomegranate like?"
Shi Liu immediately said, "Of course he's tall and mighty!"
After Shi Liu finished speaking, she didn't seem shy at all, and she described it with great enthusiasm.
"Your arms must be thicker than other people's thighs, and your height must be at least... a few heads taller than the Third Prince. Furthermore, your kung fu must be excellent, capable of killing a tiger with one punch. You must eat with big mouthfuls, and drink from a large bowl..."
Tang Bao: “…”
It's a little hard for Sister Pomegranate to find a husband...
Other things are easy to say, but how many people in the world can kill a tiger with one punch?
After Shi Liu finished speaking, she turned back to Xuanyuan Jin.
"In my eyes, the Third Prince looks too delicate." Shi Liu shook her head and said.
It doesn't fit her aesthetic.
Tang Bao smiled.
"Sister Shiliu, please don't let anyone else hear what you said." Tang Bao said with a smile, "Brother is somewhat like our beautiful aunt, but his appearance is more heroic and doesn't make people feel feminine."
"That's true," Shi Liu said. "The Third Prince has a stern face all day long, and a cold demeanor. He's only less intimidating when he's with the young lady."
After saying that, he added another sentence.
"If it weren't for the Third Prince's good looks, he would definitely be able to stop a child from crying at night."
When Shi Liu said this, Tang Bao couldn't help but laugh.
"Miss, you said that when the Third Prince gets married in the future, will he be cold to his wife as well?" Shi Liu said doubtfully.
Tang Bao thought about it and couldn't imagine how the little brother treated his wife.
Finally, he blinked and said, "Of course not. My brother will naturally be gentle and caring to his wife after he gets married. He won't have a stern face."
"Is it like this to the young lady?" Shi Liu said casually, "Sometimes I feel that the Third Prince treats the young lady like his own wife."
Tang Bao: "...Sister Pomegranate, your monthly allowance for this month is gone."
Shi Liu wailed and said hurriedly, "Miss, I was wrong. I will never say nonsense again! I just feel that both the Queen and the Queen Mother are so kind to you. If you can marry the Third Prince, you will definitely not have to worry about being bullied in your husband's family or setting rules in front of your mother-in-law. You will definitely be as free and happy as you are now, so..."
"So, Sister Shiliu, you don't have your monthly allowance for next month either." Tang Bao interrupted Shiliu with a dark face.
Pomegranate:"……"
stunned!
Why is there another month?
Tang Bao said calmly, "Besides, if what you said gets to my mother's ears, I'm afraid you won't have any money left for the whole year."
Pomegranate:"……"
He suddenly covered his mouth which had caused trouble.
She will never say that kind of thing again, even if you beat her to death!
At most, she would just keep muttering to herself.
Anyway, she felt that no one in the world was worthy of her young lady.
There is still a slight chance of choosing the general from among the short men, that is, the Third Prince.
Tang Bao wandered around the palace aimlessly without any purpose.
There was no way around it, she was just following orders.
The emperor has said that. If she doesn't go around and take a look, she will be suspected of disobeying his order.
After Shi Liu lost two months' salary, she didn't dare to mention Xuanyuan Jin anymore.
"Miss, why did Concubine Shu lead you to the Empress's palace?" Shi Liu frowned and asked, "Could it be that she wanted to harm you? But that's not right. You and her have no grudges against each other, and you even helped her. She doesn't seem to be faking her affection for you..."
Tang Bao thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps, Concubine Shu feels that this is the Emperor's wish. If I do as the Emperor wishes, the Emperor won't blame me..."
Pomegranate thought about it and felt that it was possible.
Tang Bao naturally wouldn't tell it, the emperor actually wanted her to find something in the palace.
"What about the Imperial Concubine? Why did she specifically point you in the direction of the Cold Palace? Also, I've always felt like something's not right with the Emperor." Shi Liu frowned and said, "Why did she specifically point out that every nook and cranny in the palace has its own unique charm? Even if I were to brag, I wouldn't say that, would I?"
Tang Bao sighed: Uncle Emperor is too anxious. Even Sister Pomegranate, who is usually calm, has noticed something, let alone the ladies in the palace.
"Of course, we don't understand what the nobles are thinking." Tang Bao said confidently: "After all, we have always lived in Daliushu Village. How can we understand the world of the nobles, right?"
Pomegranate: "...Yes."
I always feel that the lady is fooling me.
"Miss, are we really going to the cold palace?" Shi Liu suddenly seemed to remember something and said, "I heard that people often die in the cold palace, and it's haunted. It's easy to be contaminated by unclean things..."
Tang Bao: “…”
She is not afraid of hauntings.
Because, many times, someone is playing tricks.
But is what the emperor is looking for really in the cold palace?
