No one else noticed anything unusual, but the white-haired puppy in her arms screamed because she subconsciously increased the strength of her pinch.
He jumped to the ground suddenly and slipped out of the crowd.
Everyone laughed and complimented, "The princess has taken really good care of this puppy. It's white and plump, and it runs like a little tiger."
"That's right. The princess is kind and compassionate, and treats people with leniency. Even a puppy eats delicious food that ordinary people can't eat. Naturally, it's extraordinary."
"My brother has a number of famous breeds of dogs in the western suburbs, some from our country and some from foreign countries. If the princess likes any of them, she can come and choose anytime."
…
Princess Ning Rong raised her chin and proudly reached out to touch the pearls and jade on her head.
He laughed and said, "The little beast I raised ran away, but a new one has come to my door. If you like, you can play with it as you like."
After saying that, his eyes fell on the Qiao sisters who were slowly approaching.
The noble ladies covered their faces with round fans, exchanged glances with each other, and understood each other.
The fun of this flower-viewing banquet is due to the Qiao sisters.
Qiao Luoluo and his sister came forward to greet the princess and presented her with the small gifts they had brought.
A noblewoman rushed forward and said with a smile, "How is the Crown Prince's wife? From afar, I see that you look very healthy and seem to be more plump than the last time I saw you. I guess it's because you and the Crown Prince have such a harmonious relationship that you are so well-off, right?"
This was a deliberate poke at Qiao Luoluo's sore spot. Who doesn't know how earth-shattering and heartbreaking Liang Yuxiao's pursuit of Qiao Yingying was back then?
Now the one who married him was Qiao Luoluo.
Haha, it would be strange if this couple could live in harmony.
Qiao Luoluo smiled calmly, "Thank you for your concern, sister. The prince and I have been getting along better and better recently. The prince is a man of both literary and military skills, a rare talent. My parents are very satisfied with him.
Originally, when I got married, my parents should have been worried about my younger sister's marriage. Fortunately, my younger sister is doing well and doesn't give us too much worry.
"Look, General Li has been chosen. He is truly a wise and brave pillar of the country, and has been appointed as the Protector of the Nation by the Emperor. I'm so happy for my sister~"
She smiled and stroked her sister's hair, like a good sister who loved her sister.
But they didn't know that just a few words could divert disaster away.
A reminder to the princess, look carefully, you underestimate the enemy here, concentrate your fire on her!
I'm married now and I can't pose a threat to you.
It’s Qiao Yingying, she should be the MVP of today, okay?
Sure enough, the princess stared at Qiao Yingying in the blink of an eye.
Qiao Yingying was so angry that her teeth were itching. She racked her brains to bring the topic back to her sister.
At this time, Qi Xiuyuan stepped forward and said in a low voice that everyone in the room could hear, "Miss, it's time to take the medicine. The doctor has instructed that the time must be exact and there can be no delay."
Qiao Luoluo quickly apologized and bowed, then left.
Qi Xiuyuan stared at his daughter standing there gracefully with a dignified demeanor. Even though she was a little arrogant, she still had the royal demeanor.
She felt relieved. Finally, there was someone who didn't disappoint her.
But Qiao Luoluo's voice came at the right time:
[This back garden is really filled with gloomy aura. I heard that these precious flowers can only be well cared for with the bodies of young boys and girls.
Every year, a certain number of boys and girls disappear in the capital. Tsk tsk, what a sin! Those noble ladies even wear flowers in their hair.
Aren't they afraid those little ghosts will come after them?]
The corner of Qi Xiuyuan's mouth twitched.
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
His eyes closed tightly and then opened quickly.
He knew very well that Rong'er was not his biological daughter.
On the night of his wedding with the queen, he was drunk and unconscious, and did not have any intimate behavior with the queen.
But the queen needs to continue the family glory and must give birth to a child.
That night, he listened to his queen having sex with another man behind the screen, crying and humming silently.
But he didn't care and happily acknowledged the child.
The reason is simple. The queen's mother's family needs a child to consolidate the family's power.
Qi Xiuyuan was willing to give it, after all, he still needed their help for the time being to build his kingdom.
As an emperor, he also needed Princess Ning Rong to tell the world that he was not infertile, but it was difficult for him to have children.
He needed to maintain his dignity as an emperor and the stability of his country.
As long as the Queen's family behaves well and doesn't offend his bottom line.
Let's just live our lives like this. He suffered too much humiliation in the past, so what's a green hat?
He doesn't care as long as he can maintain national peace and give his mother a stable life in her later years.
Because of this, he spoiled Ning Rong to the point of lawlessness.
It would be fine if he just acted tyrannically in the palace, but he also hurt innocent people.
Qi Xiuyuan asked himself if he could tolerate others.
He will have someone investigate the matter, and if it is true, he must punish the perpetrator severely.
The people are the foundation of the country.
Children are the hope of the country.
How can we allow wanton killing?
While thinking, the two of them had already come to a quiet corner.
Qiao Luoluo stood under the shade of a tree, breathing slightly. The fatigue from her period made her gasp for air after walking a few steps.
This is not fake.
After a while, a loud shouting and cursing sounded from not far away.
Qiao Luoluo stretched his neck and saw Qiao Yingying kneeling on the ground with her face tilted up, allowing Princess Ning Rong to slap her.
The noble ladies around clapped and laughed for fun.
This scene is really beautiful.
Qiao Luoluo was so happy that he couldn't help laughing, but he was saying in his heart:
[Ah, the eldest princess is making things difficult for my younger sister again? No, I have to go help her.]
Just as they were about to leave, Qi Xiuyuan grabbed Qiao Luoluo and whispered, "The princess looks like she's not someone you'd want to mess with. Let's not go over there."
After a pause, he asked, "Does the princess often bully others like this?"
Qiao Luoluo coughed dryly and whispered in his ear, "The eldest princess loves General Li, and any noble lady who dares to approach General Li will not have a good end.
Did you see that river? They say there were several girls chained up there, all drowned, and their families didn't dare pursue the matter.
I heard that the princess wanted those girls to witness her and General Li's love and childbirth in the future, so that they would suffer forever even in their later lives."
Qi Xiuyuan clenched his fists and sneered, "These are just hearsays from you. The princess is kind-hearted, she wouldn't do that."
Qiao Luoluo smiled and pinched her face. "You're right. Don't gossip about others. Who knows if it's true or not? We don't have the ability to go down to the bottom of the river to take a look."
But it has nothing to do with us anyway, so we can just find a chance to slip away and go home later."
She also did not force an old father to believe that his daughter was a wicked person.
But, there was already a thorn in his heart.
He will definitely send someone to investigate, and then it will be clear which is true and which is false.
Qiao Luoluo was about to go to the dining area to find some snacks when suddenly a maid passed by her.
At the same time, something was ejected onto the surface of her shoe.
Suddenly, a strange stench emanated.
