Bai Susu understood in her heart that Emperor Xuan Jing came so early today because of this matter.
In fact, it was this morning when she went for a walk in the Imperial Garden and met Princess Baohua.
At the beginning, they lived in peace and had little interaction. Although Princess Baohua was beautiful and cute, she could not feel much pity for her when she thought that she was Concubine Hui's child.
What's worse is that today Princess Baohua was holding a cat in her arms. I heard it was her favorite pet. It was snow-white, with shiny fur and a strong body. It was almost half the height of Princess Baohua.
When the two passed each other, the cat somehow slipped out of Princess Baohua's arms and pounced on Bai Susu.
This scared Nanchun and the others, and they rushed to protect Bai Susu. Xiao Shunzi and the others even wanted to catch the cat.
Princess Baohua loved the cat very much. Seeing Xiao Shunzi and the others' fierce movements, she was afraid that they would hurt her cat, so she shouted, "Don't hit my cat!"
Bai Susu stood there, her scalp almost exploding. She didn't like cats in the first place, and this cat had green eyes and was roaring. Although she knew that so many people would never let her be hurt by a cat, she couldn't help but be frightened.
"Your Majesty, are you talking about Xuetuan? I'm fine. The cat didn't hurt me." She was indeed not hurt. At least, it didn't even touch a single hair of Bai Susu.
Xiao Shunzi cut several big cuts on his hands while trying to catch a cat.
Princess Baohua was very unhappy when she saw her cat had lost its fur due to being scratched, and she started crying loudly.
The nanny serving beside her turned pale. She was already scared out of her wits when the cat pounced out just now, and she was afraid that it would disturb the imperial concubine's dragon fetus.
That's the Imperial Concubine! Although she doesn't put on airs, she's already an Imperial Concubine, one rank higher than their master, Concubine Hui!
What does a child know? It’s because Concubine Hui always criticizes Bai Susu in the palace without regard for status, so the princess is so disrespectful to the imperial concubine.
Bai Susu's heart softened when she saw the wet nurse hugging Princess Baohua and begging for mercy on the ground. Why should she bother with a child?
"Nothing, take the princess back and don't let her cry."
The wet nurse thanked Princess Baohua profusely and took her away.
Manxia's expression was not very good, and she muttered, "The Queen is too good-tempered."
Nanchun was extremely worried when she saw Bai Susu's pale face. She supported Bai Susu and said, "Your Majesty, are you still able to stand? Why don't we sit down and rest?"
Bai Susu patted her chest, her heart was beating a little fast because of the chaos just now.
She shook her head and said, "It's okay, let's go back."
Everyone hurriedly helped Bai Susu back to the palace.
"It's not that I'm good-tempered. Princess Baohua is still a child. Why should I bother with her?" Bai Susu looked at him leisurely. "What's more, she is the emperor's daughter. Do you understand?"
Manxia swallowed. Although her master spoke gently, she knew that she had said the wrong thing again.
She thought that since her master was in a high position and was pregnant with the dragon heir, she could look down on everyone.
But Princess Baohua is different from others. She is the emperor's first daughter, and this is a fact that no one can change.
Bai Susu must be clear-headed in her mind. She has always believed that the love between parents and children cannot be severed.
She would not compete with Princess Baohua for favor, even though she knew that in Emperor Xuan Jing's heart, she and her child were more important than Princess Baohua.
However, if Emperor Xuan Jing hurt his daughter for her, this was not what Bai Susu wanted to see, nor was it what Emperor Xuan Jing wanted to see.
Therefore, Bai Susu was willing to turn a blind eye, and when Emperor Xuan Jing asked, she was even more willing to take a step back and make excuses for Princess Baohua.
As expected, Emperor Xuan Jing felt relieved after hearing her say this, and his face was filled with regret. He patted her hand and said comfortingly, "I have already sent someone to take Xuetuan away from her and teach her a lesson. This will definitely not happen again."
Bai Susu nodded, expressing her approval of Emperor Xuan Jing's "punishment", but she quickly changed the subject.
"Your Majesty, can you please accompany me this afternoon? Debao said the kitchen has a new tribute of mandarin fish. Would you mind slicing it up and having fish porridge in the evening?"
Her eyes were as clear as washed water, pure and without any impurities, and Emperor Xuan Jing didn't know what to say.
He was also glad that she was like this. Perhaps this was the reason why Su Su was able to occupy his heart step by step.
"It's up to you."
Emperor Xuan Jing spent an entire afternoon with Bai Susu in Yanfu Palace. In the evening, the two of them drank delicious fish porridge. Just as Debao had said, the meat was tender and melted in the mouth.
After the meal, Wang Fuhai came in again and whispered a few words in Emperor Xuan Jing's ear. Emperor Xuan Jing's expression did not change at all. He told Bai Susu to rest early and not to wait for him, and then went out.
Nanchun was a little nervous. It was so late, where was the emperor going?
Bai Susu didn't even raise her eyebrows. Although Wang Fuhai's voice was very low, she still heard the words "Princess Baohua". She thought that Emperor Xuan Jing must have gone to Zhaoyang Palace.
Bai Susu's guess was correct. She was so sensible that Emperor Xuan Jing felt even more apologetic. It was an indisputable fact that He Jia's cat scared Susu.
He did not punish He Jia, but just asked the eunuch to take Xuetuan away and discipline him for a while, at least to prevent this kind of situation from happening again.
This is already a very light punishment!
Who knew that Wang Fuhai had just told him that He Jia was crying and making a fuss, not wanting the eunuch to take the cat away. She was so determined, and she was the emperor's daughter, so how could the eunuch dare to do anything wrong?
He couldn't complete his mission, so he could only come to Wang Fuhai to cry.
