"Do you know how much silver Duke Cheng gave Taoist Chen when he cured Wei Ziyan?" Mianmian said.
"How much?" Little Shuangbao tilted his head, a little curious.
Mianmian just stretched out a slap.
"Five thousand taels of gold!"
Her tone was full of envy, "Little Princess, there are so many nobles in the palace, they must all be very rich! You might as well set up a fortune-telling stall in the palace and tell one fortune. Not to mention five thousand taels of gold, at least five hundred taels!"
"That way, you can earn money to buy the Empress a nice headpiece, right?"
Setting up a fortune-telling stall in the palace?
Only Mianmian would dare to come up with such a weird idea.
But little Shuangbao really dared to listen.
Her eyes lit up immediately: "That's right! Why didn't Shuangbao think of it?"
But at the same time, she was a little worried, "But, will anyone ask Shuangbao for fortune-telling?"
"Isn't that easy? Didn't the little princess help Lord Zhao figure out what happened to his daughter before? Just let Lord Zhao come to the palace to help you publicize it, right?" Mianmian continued to give advice.
"Okay! Let's do it this way! No, Shuangbao needs to discuss this with Daddy first."
Xiao Shuangbao still remembered that he had asked Mianmian to stay in the palace before. Emperor Chengxuan blamed Xiao Shuangbao for not discussing it with him.
So she immediately went to Emperor Chengxuan to tell him.
"Shuangbao wants to earn money to buy a birthday gift for the Queen?" Emperor Chengxuan was a little surprised. "You want silver, isn't that a small matter? How much do you want? Tell me, and I'll send someone to get it for you right away."
"How can that be possible?"
However, little Shuangbao was very insistent, "The gift that Shuangbao wants to give to the Queen must be bought with the money that Shuangbao earned himself.
"If it was Daddy who gave Shuang Bao the silver, then it was a gift Daddy bought for the Queen Mother, so it doesn't count as a gift from Shuang Bao.
"Daddy, please, just agree to Shuangbao."
The little baby blinked her big watery eyes pitifully at Emperor Cheng Xuan.
Emperor Cheng Xuan was simply irresistible.
"Okay, okay, daddy will definitely agree to anything you ask for. How about this, you can set up a fortune-telling stall here." He said quickly.
"Ah? Here? But isn't this where Daddy handles state affairs? If Shuangbao tells fortunes here, will it disturb Daddy and the ministers?"
Little Shuangbao tilted his head and said very sensibly.
Emperor Chengxuan usually handled state affairs here. He not only had to review memorials, but also met with ministers to discuss various important state affairs.
"Won't."
However, Emperor Cheng Xuan had already thought of everything. "Don't think that your father knows nothing. Telling fortunes for others is like revealing the secrets of heaven. If you tell fortunes frequently, it will not do you any good.
"But I am the Supreme Lord, the True Dragon Emperor.
"You are telling fortunes beside me, and I can even help you cover up a few things.
"From now on, you will accompany me here every morning and can only read one fortune. No more than that. Once you have saved enough money, you can no longer read. Do you understand?"
As he said this, Qin Cheng listened from the side.
At this moment, I couldn't help but raise my eyebrows.
Unexpectedly, Emperor Cheng Xuan knows quite a lot, and this is indeed a good strategy.
"I understand." Little Shuangbao also knew that Emperor Chengxuan was thoughtful and it was all for her own good, so she said sweetly, "Daddy is the best! I love you the most!"
"Hmph, you little flatterer! When your queen mother celebrates her birthday, you earn money to buy her a birthday gift. Wait until my birthday... Then I'll see if the birthday gift you prepare for me is as good as your queen mother's!"
There was a hint of subtle envy and jealousy, as well as hints, in Emperor Chengxuan's words.
Xiao Shuangbao understood it immediately.
What the Emperor meant was that if it was his birthday, the birthday gift she gave had to be better than the one given by the Empress!
"Don't worry, Daddy. Shuangbao will definitely satisfy you when the time comes!"
Xiao Shuangbao said this sweetly, and secretly made up his mind.
It seems that I have to keep earning this money so that I can buy a birthday gift for my father!
Emperor Chengxuan asked Xiao Shuangbao to tell his fortune, but he actually had another intention, that is, the concubines in the harem, in order to win favor, would definitely try their best to let Xiao Shuangbao tell their fortunes.
Because only in this way can you see him.
As a result, when the news that Xiao Shuangbao was telling fortunes in the Palace of Heavenly Purity spread, all the concubines in the harem appeared dressed up.
When Xiao Shuangbao saw so many people, he was stunned.
“Daddy said that Shuangbao should only count one per day.
"With so many people, who should I count first?"
She scratched her head in embarrassment.
"Count it for this princess first!"
At this moment, a domineering voice suddenly came from behind the crowd.
As soon as the concubines saw the arrival of the people, they all made way on their own initiative.
It was because the person who appeared was Concubine Wang’s daughter, the seventh princess Jing Tiantian.
"You, who are you?" Xiao Shuangbao had never seen Jing Tiantian before, so he looked at her curiously.
Jing Tiantian is eight years old this year. She inherited Concubine Wang's appearance. At such a young age, she has grown into a beauty that can even shame the moon and flowers.
She obviously inherited Concubine Wang's temper.
"Hmph, you don't deserve to know who I am! Just call me the Seventh Princess like everyone else!" At this time, Jing Tiantian looked down on Xiao Shuangbao and didn't take him seriously at all.
"Oh, hello, Seventh Princess. Shuangbao is Princess Lingfu." Little Shuangbao introduced herself with big watery eyes and a milky voice.
"What? How dare you mock this princess!"
