1458 Make trouble, Dou Ye takes action
When Doudou heard Feng Qingchen's question, he almost cried. His journey was full of sadness.
"Qingchen, I'm so pitiful. You don't know how miserable I've been along the way." As he spoke, he hugged Feng Qingchen's arm and rubbed it.
He is so cold, so hungry, and so pitiful!
"Speak nicely." Feng Qingchen pushed Doudou away again. Seeing that Doudou was wearing thin clothes, he frowned and asked, "Why are you so miserable?"
"I don't have any money." Doudou said confidently, but Feng Qingchen was furious: "Before you left, I seemed to have given you two thousand taels, where is the money?"
"Silver? Ah..." Doudou slapped his forehead and took out a tattered book like he was presenting a treasure: "I almost forgot about this. Here, look... This is an ancient book. The person who sold it to me said that this book was a secret book of the royal family of the previous dynasty and is worth a million gold. They only sold it to me for two thousand taels because they saw that I was handsome."
"You mean, you spent two thousand taels of silver to buy this book?" Feng Qingchen took the so-called ancient book from Doudou's hand, opened it and took a look...
The first few pages contain a bunch of incomprehensible words, but the middle part is just ordinary Treatise on Febrile Diseases, which costs two taels of silver per copy in the bookstore.
Ouyang Doudou, you prodigal son!
Feng Qingchen gnashed her teeth. Just when she was about to teach Doudou a lesson, Doudou suddenly put her hand into her arms and said, "Qingchen, I found this specially for you. Hide it quickly and don't let anyone see it."
Doudou looked at Feng Qingchen flatteringly. If there was a tail, he and his gang would definitely wag it.
This guy thought he got a bargain and was showing off.
Feng Qingchen was very angry, but...
Seeing Doudou like this, she really couldn't get angry. This kid used the money for food to buy books just for her. Well, she admitted that she was touched.
This silly child is so lovable.
Feng Qingchen reached out and rubbed Doudou's head: "Don't spend so much money next time. I have a whole room full of medical books."
"That's different. What's yours is yours, and what I give you is what I give you." Doudou smiled like a flower, but then wilted again: "Qingchen, I'm so hungry, can you give me something to eat?"
"Why didn't you say so earlier?" Feng Qingchen put away the medical book and called the servants: "Take Master Ouyang downstairs to wash up, and ask the kitchen to prepare food."
"Yes." Feng Qingchen and the servants in the Ninth Prince's courtyard were all brought from Dongling. Although they didn't know who Young Master Ouyang was, they didn't dare to ask more questions about Feng Qingchen's orders.
"Master Ouyang, please." The servant was polite and respectful. Doudou looked silly and cute: "Master Ouyang, are you calling me?"
"Besides you, is there anyone else here with the last name Ouyang?" Feng Qingchen slapped Doudou on the head with the book: "Go quickly."
"Okay, okay, I'll go right away. I'm just not used to it. Qingchen... remember to prepare lots of delicious food for me. I'm so hungry." Doudou jumped up and down, and Feng Qingchen felt relieved.
Although the child is thin, he is still healthy.
"Is he okay?" The Ninth Uncle asked as Feng Qingchen entered the room.
The Ninth Prince didn't want to worry, but it would be easy for such a fool to get into trouble if he was alone outside.
"He is just very thin, but everything else is fine and he looks energetic." Feng Qingchen handed the book to the Ninth Uncle: "Two thousand taels."
The Ninth Prince had heard it from inside the house. He took the book and threw it on the table without even looking at it: "You can only trick him."
"Indeed, the liar is really lucky to meet him." Feng Qingchen couldn't help laughing: "But, this is too wasteful, I have to talk about him later."
"Yes." The Ninth Prince nodded: "Did he tell us how he found us?"
"Maybe he got lost." Feng Qingchen didn't think anything else.
Sure enough, the next day I learned from Doudou about his ability to get lost.
"You've been in Beiling for more than half a year, and you haven't found your master yet?" Feng Qingchen really admired Doudou. What kind of ability is this? It's not easy to be so stupid.
"No, I don't know where Master went." Doudou squatted on the chair like an abandoned puppy. His pitiful appearance made Feng Qingchen unable to blame him.
"What about your guide bees? With them, even if you can't find anyone, you can return to Dongling or contact us."
It would have been fine if Feng Qingchen hadn't mentioned the guide bee, but as soon as she mentioned Doudou, she burst into tears: "My guide bee died. It froze to death when we first arrived at Beiling. Wuuuuuu... Qingchen, what place is this? Why is it so cold? I almost froze to death along the way."
It’s good to have internal strength, but he hasn’t had enough to eat for half a year, so even his internal strength cannot withstand it.
"You can still go back to Dongling without a guide bee. You won't go wrong if you return the same way." This child is so unlucky.
Doudou bowed his head and admitted his mistake: "I got lost in the snow and couldn't get out." Fearing that Feng Qingchen would laugh at him, Doudou jumped up from his chair and cursed: "I opened my eyes and it was all fucking snow. It looked the same everywhere. How could I tell east, west, south, and north? It's not my fault. There's just too much snow here."
"Yes, yes, it's not your fault. Then how did you find us?" Feng Qingchen hurriedly comforted her, fearing that Doudou would get angry.
"Speaking of this, I found that my luck is really good." Doudou was easily angry and quickly calmed down. He put it down immediately and said proudly: "I met a group of merchants in the snow forest. They were besieged by wolves. I rescued them and they asked me to be their bodyguard.
I followed them out of the snow forest, and then to a small town. I heard about the marriage in Dongling, so I came to the imperial capital to see if I could run into anyone I knew. As a result, I was lucky. As soon as I arrived in the imperial capital, I heard that the Ninth Prince had come. So here I am..."
It turned out that they had encountered a caravan. No wonder they were able to walk out of the snow forest alive. Feng Qingchen nodded, and she said that with Doudou's ability, it would really test his IQ to walk out of the snow forest.
I'm really worried about Doudou's IQ.
"Okay, okay, now we've been found. You can stay here with peace of mind, and after Princess Anping's wedding, we will accompany you to find a master." If she let Doudou run around freely, she was really afraid that Doudou would die in the snow without anyone knowing.
Doudou nodded repeatedly and patted his chest to assure himself that he would not run around.
Just kidding, there's snow all over here, if he runs out he won't come back.
Shibaqi was originally thinking that Doudou must be a martial arts expert, but...
It's a miracle that such an idiot can survive.
The little bit of admiration that Shi Baqi had for Dou Dou immediately disappeared without a trace.
However, Doudou's appearance at this time is definitely a good thing for Feng Qingchen and the Ninth Prince. At least Doudou can accompany the Ninth Prince to attend the banquet tonight.
In the evening, the Ninth Prince, Feng Qingchen, Princess Anping and Doudou entered the palace together to attend the welcome banquet held for them by Emperor Beiling. The male and female guests were seated separately at the banquet.
Feng Qingchen accompanied Princess Anping and sat with the other women. As for the Ninth Prince, Doudou accompanied him.
At this point, we have to mention that when the Ninth Prince entered the palace, he not only asked the Emperor to set a date for the marriage, but also changed Feng Qingchen's status from a dowry lady-in-waiting to a wedding lady-in-waiting.
The difference of one word represents two different identities. Feng Qingchen is not staying in Beiling forever as Princess Anping's dowry, but after Princess Anping's wedding, Feng Qingchen can go back.
Of course, the Ninth Prince paid a huge price to convince the Emperor.
After all, the emperor would not do anything without profit, and without sufficient benefits, how could the emperor change. In other words, the emperor let Feng Qingchen marry in the first place, just waiting for the ninth uncle to go to the palace to beg him.
Knowing it was a trap, the Ninth Prince had no choice but to jump...
