Chapter 469: It was exposed on the first day, embarrassing
Under the joint siege of the National Protection Army and the Pu State Army, the 30,000 Chilie Army guarding Pu State were completely wiped out.
Wei Qingyan packed his bags and set out on his journey back home.
The eldest prince and the fifth prince accompanied Xing'er to Wei.
It was the first time Xing'er left home and felt sad, so she pestered Wei Qingyan to ride in the same carriage with her. When Wei Qingyan saw the little princess crying so hard that her tears and snot covered Emperor Pu when she said goodbye to her parents, he couldn't bear to refuse her.
After comforting the little princess, Wei Qingyan felt a little tired, so he lay down and closed his eyes to rest. Unexpectedly, he heard the sound of the little princess sniffing and suppressing her tears.
Wei Qingyan quickly opened his eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"
Xing'er looked at the empty bottle in her hand and choked out, "I, I accidentally spilled the seawater I brought from my hometown..."
From her crying, Wei Qingyan realized that the girl had read a storybook in which someone would take some of their hometown with them to express their homesickness.
Pu State is surrounded by the sea on three sides and is considered a maritime country. In addition, the little princess did not go into the water as she wished last time, so she filled a bottle of sea water with her.
After Wei Qingyan rested, she thought of her parents and brothers again, so she held the bottle in her arms. Unexpectedly, the cork was accidentally opened and the whole bottle of sea water poured out.
The sea water that was used to express the princess' homesickness spilled before she left Pu State, and the little princess cried anxiously.
"Sister Princess, don't you think this is true? A daughter who is married off is like water spilled.
In the eyes of my father, the emperor, and my mother, I was thrown out like the sea."
Wei Qingyan didn't know how these two things were connected together in her little head. She wasn't even married yet.
But she noticed that the little princess's hands were stained with a lot of sea water, but her skin was in good condition.
Queen Pu lied.
The little princess is not allergic to sea water at all, but she wants to stop the little princess from going into the sea. Why?
The crying was still ringing in his ears. Wei Qingyan said, "Okay, stop crying. I'll ask someone to go back and fill another bottle for you, okay?"
"Thank you, Sister Tainu. I'll have someone install it myself."
The little princess cried and called her attendant over. After giving instructions, she suddenly stopped crying and looked at her hands, "Sister Princess, my...my hands are okay?"
Didn’t the Queen Mother say that she was allergic to sea water?
"Will I get a rash soon?" the little princess asked nervously.
When Wei Qingyan heard her say this, he said, "I'll ask Master Jing to come over and take a look at you."
The little princess had no suspicion.
Old Man Jing was very experienced. Last time, Wei Qingyan had asked him if anyone was allergic to sea water. Today, he was going to examine the little princess who was worried about a rash caused by sea water on her hands. He immediately understood that Wei Qingyan was asking about the little princess.
Therefore, he carefully checked the little princess's pulse, and after a long while, he confirmed, "The pulse is fine."
This is a double entendre.
This person has no allergies.
There is nothing abnormal about this person's pulse.
Wei Qingyan understood.
The fifth prince and the eldest prince, who were riding happily in front, heard the guards say that their sister was crying again and Wei Qingyan had called a doctor for her, so they quickly turned their horses around and ran back to the carriage.
After knowing the reason, both of them were stunned.
Because a few days before they set off, when their mother told them to take good care of their younger sister, she also reminded them that their younger sister was allergic to sea water and must not be allowed to go into the sea.
They remembered that their sister could not touch the sea water, but they did not notice that she secretly brought out a bottle of sea water.
At the critical moment, my sister touched the sea water and did not have any allergic symptoms.
The two princes thought that their mother must not trust them to take good care of their sister, so she deliberately exaggerated the fact that their sister could not go to sea in order to scare them.
Therefore, after the two princes coaxed their sister, they both sent letters to Queen Pu at the same time.
Wei Qingyan lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw two carrier pigeons flying overhead, heading towards the imperial city of Pu State.
Empress Pu was still immersed in the sadness of her children leaving her side when she received two letters sent by carrier pigeons.
After reading the contents clearly, Empress Pu slapped her forehead hard and fell on Emperor Pu's shoulder. With a look of despair on her face, she said to Emperor Pu, "I now think you are right to despise the children for being unintelligent."
It was also her fault. When she saw Xing'er insisted on going into the sea that day, she made up an excuse that she was allergic to sea water. It was really not rigorous.
It’s only the first day since leaving home and it’s already been exposed!
Emperor Pu also had an indescribable expression and hesitated, "How about we take the children back?"
He was really worried about them being foolish and suffering outside.
How could Empress Pu not be worried? But Xing'er was going to marry into the Wei Dynasty after all, so she gritted her teeth and said, "Even if Wei Qingyan finds out, so what? Xing'er is no different from an ordinary person except that she can't go to sea.
No matter how smart Wei Qingyan is, he wouldn't have guessed that our Xing'er is a mermaid."
After all, mermaids have only existed in legends, and no one has ever seen a mermaid except His Majesty.
"Wei Qingyan has a kind heart and truly loves our Xing'er. Xing'er treats her with sincerity. Your Majesty, let's make a bet."
She bet on the kindness in Wei Qingyan's heart, on Wei Qingyan's affection for Xing'er, and on the fact that as long as they didn't do anything to hurt Wei Qingyan and them, Wei Qingyan wouldn't hurt their child either.
Emperor Pu was silent for a moment, then nodded, "Then let's make a bet and pretend we don't know about this.
I wrote back to those two idiots and said we were scared by Xing'er falling into the water and were worried that she would play around again, so we deliberately used the allergy to scare her."
Queen Pu sighed, this was all she could do.
But he was still worried, so he said weakly, "You like my tail very much, right?
Our little lucky star's tail is even more beautiful than mine, it looks like it's covered in a pearl shell. The eldest prince should like it too, right?"
"Yes, I will. Our little lucky star is so adorable, who wouldn't love him?"
After Emperor Pu comforted his wife, he was worried that she would continue to be sad, so he quickly changed the subject, "Let's go reply to those idiots."
So, not long after, both princes received letters from Empress Pu via carrier pigeons, with exactly the same content. Empress Pu blamed them for not taking good care of their sister.
As soon as my sister left home, she could only hug the sea water and miss home, and she also mentioned that she had deliberately scared them.
The two men were simple-minded. They rode their horses to the side of the carriage, and one on each side told Xing'er the reply letter from Empress Pu in front of Wei Qingyan.
Hearing this, Xing'er patted her chest and said, "Mother is so naughty. She scared me to death and made me think I was really allergic to sea water."
Hearing her say this, the two princes said in unison, "Even if you're not allergic, you're not allowed to go into the sea. The Queen Mother said that if anything happens to you, she'll knock our heads off."
"The Queen Mother is a scare tactic. That's why she doesn't want to knock your heads off."
"That won't work either. Mother will really punish us..."
The three brothers and sisters chatted in one carriage and outside two carriages, and the little princess's mood improved.
Wei Qingyan knew that the two princes were chatting with the little princess, probably because they had been reprimanded by Empress Pu, and now they realized that they had to accompany their sister.
He didn't interrupt and just listened with a smile.
But I was thinking in my heart why Xing'er couldn't go to the sea.
But even though she had seen a lot since following the fat monk, she had never seen a mermaid, so she never expected that her future sister-in-law would be a mermaid.
Unable to figure out what was going on, and the two princes had already left, Wei Qingyan felt sleepy and simply went to sleep.
