Chapter 35: Want to eat some hard food to replenish your energy?
The carriage stopped at the gate of Prince Xiao's mansion. He Bo and his servants were standing at the door waiting respectfully. When they saw Su Wanyan being helped out of the carriage, they immediately greeted her with a smile, "Welcome back to the palace, Princess."
Then, He Bo led Su Wanyan into the palace while instructing the servants, "You, go and help carry the gifts from the emperor and the nobles."
Servants: “Yes!”
In the imperial city, Prince Xiao is not welcomed by all the officials. That is because all the officials receive salaries from the emperor. The emperor does not like Prince Xiao, so naturally the civil officials in the court do not dare to have too much contact with Prince Xiao. But where there are civil officials, there are also military generals. Prince Xiao's military exploits are the model that all the military generals admire and learn from. Seeing Prince Xiao like this now, those people in the military generals' mansions are always watching him!
Princess Xiao went to the palace alone to thank the emperor for his grace. No matter how disliked Prince Xiao was by the emperor, he would definitely be rewarded with a lot of things.
Ji Xiaohan had already received the news of what happened in the palace long ago. The dog emperor deliberately took control of Su Wanyan and didn't even put on a show of effort. The dog emperor is not a human being, so he should not be afraid of the world knowing it, right?
So, He Bo deliberately waited at the gate of the palace with his men early. Whenever someone passed by, the servants would happily say to that person, "Our princess is indeed blessed. The prince looks much better today. The princess has done a great job in bringing good luck. When she goes to the palace to thank the emperor, he will surely reward her with many gifts. We have come to welcome her in advance."
Then, before Su Wanyan even left the palace, everyone in the imperial city knew that Princess Xiao had come to the palace to express her gratitude, and that the emperor was going to give her many gifts! This was the emperor's grace!
But when Princess Xiao entered the mansion, the servants ran to the carriage and saw that it was empty.
The servants were dumbfounded!
The onlookers were also dumbfounded!
The Emperor specially selected the candidate for Prince Xiao's Mansion. The marriage has taken place, the joy has been celebrated, the favor has been thanked, but is there any reward?
The servants abided by their duties and dared not criticize their master. They led the carriage back to the backyard without saying a word. The lonely figure and the drooping head looked so pitiful no matter how you looked at them.
The onlookers looked at each other, shook their heads and left.
It is said that the emperor does not like Prince Xiao, fearing that he will become too powerful and steal the emperor's prestige. But no matter what, he still has to put in some superficial effort, right?
Princess Xiao came to the palace and got nothing. People say that the royal family is heartless, and it turns out that's true.
"Princess, you have been wronged. I have asked someone to prepare some bird's nest soup for you to drink to calm down." He Bo invited Su Wanyan into the main hall, personally brought her a bowl of bird's nest soup, and said with concern.
Su Wanyan didn't feel wronged. She wasn't from this era, and those intimidating tactics didn't cast much of a shadow on her mind. "It's nothing. I was bullied, so I'll just find a chance to bully back."
Hmm, this bird's nest soup is really delicious.
After finishing the bird's nest soup in a few mouthfuls, Su Wanyan stood up and said, "Uncle He, ask the kitchen to make a few more hearty dishes tonight. I need to eat more to replenish my energy."
He Bo was stunned for a moment, then bowed, "Yes, I'll go down and arrange it right away."
Want to eat some solid food to replenish your energy?
What are you going to do?
When Su Wanyan's figure disappeared in the main hall, He Bo hurried to ask Xiao Yi, and Xiao Yi told him everything about their princess's plan to sneak into the palace at night to seek revenge.
After hearing this, He Bo stood there in a daze for a long time.
Isn’t it said that the princess is delicate and timid?
