Chapter 125 Chengcheng wants to be the most wind-resistant little cotton-padded jacket for her father!
Jiang Yingcheng clung to her handsome father's shoulders, her head constantly poking out.
[Looking through the little box that Cheng Cheng hid?! ]
The moment they heard this voice, the ministers felt their heartbeats stop for a moment.
No, you really hid that thing?!
So confused!
[Damn it, where are the candies that Cheng Cheng had managed to save with so much effort! ]
It took her a long time to cheat each uncle a little at a time and finally collect a box of candy!
With 007, the most powerful cheat in hand, Jiang Yingcheng is not worried at all about not being able to prove her and her mother's innocence, but she can't go through her candy box!
Jiang Yingcheng was so angry that his cheeks puffed up: [If you want to put the doll in there, just put it in the vase. Why did you have to dig out the candy box that Chengcheng had hidden with great difficulty?]
Now, not only will all the candies be confiscated, but my mother might even slap my hands!
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
They secretly thought that they had to find a way to change the little princess's habit of breathing heavily when she spoke. It almost scared them to death!
However, seeing that the young man was not worried at all, they returned home with peace of mind.
Jiang Yanchuan sent Jiang Tinghuai and the others back, turned around, picked up the little guy and got on the sedan chair again, and ordered them to go directly in the direction of Xingshuang Palace.
…
There were people kneeling on the ground in Xingshuang Palace.
Although Fang Siwan knew that Jiang Yingcheng certainly didn't do this, she still went through the motions. She sobbed and looked like she would faint from crying at any moment.
When Jiang Yanchuan walked in holding Jiang Yingcheng's hand, Concubine Rougui's sullen expression suddenly disappeared, and she immediately became even more pitiful than Fang Siwan.
She leaned forward and bowed gracefully, her eyes moving with a charming look.
Jiang Yanchuan, however, walked straight in with Jiang Yingcheng without even glancing at her.
Jiang Yingcheng, on the other hand, turned around and secretly glared at her when he passed by the two of them.
This glance was not seen by anyone else, and only three people who could hear her inner thoughts noticed a little clue.
[Humph! If you bully Cheng Cheng's mother, Cheng Cheng will dig up dirt on you! ]
Eunuch Changshun staggered and wanted to go out to avoid the limelight.
He didn't want to hear any of the secrets of the nobles in the palace!
Jiang Yanchuan paused for a moment, then continued forward as if nothing had happened.
He first settled the kid on a soft chair, then slowly sat down on another soft chair and said in a cold voice, "No need to be polite."
Concubine Rougui, who had been watching Emperor Mingze's actions out of the corner of her eye, felt a little heavy in her heart.
Emperor Mingze's favoritism towards Jiang Yingcheng was so obvious that it had reached the point where he did not even bother to hide it. For a moment, she was even a little worried whether her plan, which she thought was a great plan, could succeed.
Although Jiang Yingcheng is just a princess, she has been too close to the prince recently. Huai'an has angered Emperor Mingze several times. If this continues, it will become increasingly difficult for her, the descendant of the Pan family, to succeed the throne.
Concubine Rou Gui tightly grasped the handkerchief in her hand and silently encouraged herself in her heart.
If she fails, she will die. She has no choice but to try!
However, Concubine Rougui waited anxiously for Emperor Mingze to ask her questions, but the answer never came.
The "accidentally found" witch doll was placed on the table between the two soft chairs, lying quietly in the mahogany round box that Jiang Yingcheng used to hide candies. The candies were scattered all over the floor, and Jiang Yingcheng was so distressed that he gasped softly.
Jiang Yanchuan reached out and took the doll out. After examining it carefully, he turned it over.
His eight characters were carved crookedly on it with the tip of a knife, and it did look a bit like the handwriting of a child who had just learned to read.
Jiang Yanchuan suddenly chuckled.
Even if he couldn't hear the little guy's voice, he wouldn't be fooled by such a clumsy trick. I don't know if Concubine Rougui was desperate or she underestimated him.
He put the voodoo doll down, picked up the scattered candies on the table, put them back into the box for the kid, and before asking about the cause and effect of this matter, he first mentioned another matter: "The palace maid named Xiwu, drag her out and give her twenty strokes of the cane."
After all, Xi Wu rushed directly to all the civil and military officials to report the matter. Concubine Rougui was not surprised by such a result, but the uneasiness in her heart became heavier.
Eunuch Changshun waved his hand and gestured to the eunuchs following behind him. Soon someone dragged Xi Wu towards the courtyard, and Xi Wu's crying voice for mercy followed.
She didn't dare to drag the royal concubine into the water, and just begged for mercy in vain.
"Your Majesty, please spare this servant, Your Majesty!"
"I will never dare to do that again, Your Majesty!"
No one in the house paid any attention to her.
It didn't take long to beat her with the stick for twenty times, but to Concubine Rou Guifei, the process seemed to be stretched out infinitely. She even had the illusion that the stick was hitting her.
When the wailing in the courtyard stopped, Jiang Yanchuan looked at Concubine Rou Gui and said, "Go ahead."
Concubine Rougui was startled, and quickly put on an angry expression, with a bit of worry: "I had nothing to do today, so I brought some gifts and went around with the sisters in the palaces. I didn't expect that when I arrived at the palace of Concubine Wan, my sister happened to have something to do, so she invited me in first."
"It was at that time that I accidentally discovered the wooden box."
"Huai'an likes to hide toys in various corners of the palace. I thought that this must be Xiaoyi's toy box."
"I just happened to prepare a colorful jade bracelet for Xiao Shiyi, so I wanted to put it in there as a surprise for the little guy."
"I didn't expect that as soon as I opened the box, I saw something so... so scary..."
Jiang Yanchuan's fingers tapped unconsciously on the table, his eyes were dim and unclear, making it difficult to understand his thoughts for a moment.
Although Concubine Rougui's speech was simple, it was difficult for people to find loopholes in it.
Jiang Yanchuan didn't turn around, but his eyes were fixed on the little girl sitting next to him.
Jiang Yingcheng held the edge of the table with one hand and stretched out the other hand to reach the voodoo doll. After several attempts, he hooked it with his fingertips, then held it in his palm and looked at it left and right in amazement.
[Wow, this is a witch doll~ So pretty! ]
Her mother was always afraid that she would get bumped into something, so she only made dolls for her made of cotton cloth. This was her first time touching a wooden doll!
After turning over the doll, Jiang Yingcheng felt a little distressed: [Such a beautiful doll, but they have to carve my father's horoscope on it. No matter how much Chengcheng likes it, I can only burn it...]
【However...】
[There is a historian who dares to reveal the horoscope of my beautiful father for his own selfish desires. I cannot let him off! ]
【Chengcheng wants to be the most windproof little cotton-padded jacket for father! 】
Jiang Yingcheng touched the thick stack of rice paper stuffed in front of his chest, feeling very safe: [It just so happens that Big Brother Yuan has written down all the commonly used characters, and with the brothers' homework, Chengcheng can make lots and lots of small notes! ]
The three people who could hear the young man's inner voice curled up the corners of their lips almost at the same time.
Although they come into contact with him every day, they are still moved by the warmth of the little guy every day.
The palace was peaceful and tranquil, except for Concubine Rougui, who was becoming increasingly confused.
Is what she said ridiculous?!
What are these people laughing at?!
