A young princess returned to the capital. She was the daughter of Princess Yahe. She had a master who was a master of immortality and possessed extraordinary abilities. Two days after returning to the capital, she had the emperor dispose of her father, the Marquis of Zhenbei, on the first day, and expelled the nanny who had served the Empress Dowager for many years from the palace on the second day.
It is rumored that the little princess is very powerful. She can summon thunder and lightning, see through a person's good or bad at a glance, and list all the other person's past deeds.
Such news spread like wildfire, but Wei Fu in the palace didn't know about it yet. She was busy coming back yesterday. It was already late after she sent off Aunt Zeng. She had dinner with the Empress Dowager, went to see her mother who was still ill in bed, and then went back to her room to sleep.
Early in the morning, Tingyu carefully helped Wei Fu put on her clothes. Just as she took her to the Queen Mother, she heard Eunuch Zhao report to the Queen Mother that the Prime Minister and Lord Tao, the Minister of Justice, had arrived.
The Queen Mother also learned from Tingyu and Eunuch Li yesterday that the Prime Minister and Tao Zhi were fellow apprentices of Wei Fu, so she asked someone to invite them in and ordered someone to prepare two more meals.
When Wei Fu heard the Prime Minister, he said he didn't know him, but he was still very happy to hear that Junior Brother Taozi was coming.
"Senior Brother Thirteen~~~~" Wei Fu exclaimed in joy as he looked at the middle-aged man who was following Tao Zhi. Although he was older, he was very elegant.
Then he ran over with his legs swinging and hugged Lin Xu.
She recognized Lin Xu at a glance, but Lin Xu was stunned for a moment before he connected this delicately combed little girl with the little baby three years ago, covered in mud and with hair sticking out like weeds. He raised his hands, unable to hold Wei Fu, and said softly, "I haven't seen you for a long time, little Junior Sister, and you still recognize me!"
Wei Fu said happily: "Senior Brother hasn't changed!"
"Brother, is that a gift for me?" She could smell the aroma of roast duck.
Lin Xu nodded slightly. Wei Fu accurately found the box containing the roast duck among the boxes Lin Xu was holding. He then ran back with the box in his arms, slurping his saliva while introducing them to the Queen Mother: "Grandmother, those are my Thirteenth Senior Brother and Taozi Junior Brother."
She lifted the box and placed it on the table. "I've heard from Senior Brother Thirteen that his wife makes delicious roast duck. Now I finally get to try it."
Tao Zhi looked at Wei Fu, who was already unpacking the box, with a look of resentment on his face: "Little Senior Sister, do you only have your senior brothers in your eyes and no junior brothers?"
Wei Fu thought about it, and with a look of pain on his face, he twisted the duck head off Tao Zhi and handed it to him with his greasy hands.
This person was not particular and just bent over and started to gnaw on the duck head with the help of his junior sister's greasy hands.
Wei Fu sniffed: I am the senior sister, so I have to take care of my junior brothers, I can't cry.
Awooo~~~~
What should I do if I still feel like crying?
No, it’s not that Fuer wants to cry, it’s that Fuer’s tears are not flowing properly.
Lin Xu walked over, looked at Tao Zhi with disdain, and took the duck skull from Wei Fu's hand. He held the duck skull close to Tao Zhi's mouth and said sinisterly, "Junior brother, let me feed you!"
Tao Zhi shook his body, silently took the duck head from Lin Xu's hand, sat next to Wei Fu, and started to chew it.
Wei Fu tried hard to blink back his tears and taught Tao Zhi seriously: "Junior brother, you are already an adult, you have to take care of yourself. I was only five years old and could eat by myself without being fed. Why do you still need someone to feed you..."
She looked at Tao Zhi with sorrow, as if to say: What are you going to do in the future after this?
The Queen Mother had not spoken before. She had asked Wei Fu whether her master was good to her. Wei Fu said yes, but the Queen Mother was skeptical. If her master was good to her, he should have sent her back personally instead of asking the villagers to send her back and leaving her, a little girl, at the gate of the Marquis of Zhenbei's Mansion.
But now, seeing how Wei Fu interacted with her fellow disciples, she knew that Wei Fu must be living a very happy life with her master.
She felt a little happier, and her attitude towards Lin Xu and Tao Zhi became much more friendly: "Master Prime Minister and Master Tao must have not eaten yet, so let's eat together!"
Lin Xu and Tao Zhi naturally would not refuse.
Lin Xu didn't stay in the mountains for long. He was framed and demoted and expelled from the capital. An old Taoist priest asked him if he could tie the hair of a little girl. He nodded and was fooled by the old Taoist priest to go back and then become his disciple.
Although I was deceived by following the old Taoist priest, I was sincerely willing to become his disciple.
However, the little girl's hair was too light to be tied up! He stayed in the mountains for half a year. After he came down from the mountain, the emperor rehabilitated him. When he returned to the capital, his promotion speed could be described as extraordinary.
Wei Fu had already torn off the two duck legs and handed them to the Queen Mother and Lin Xu respectively with great reluctance.
Tao Zhi felt that he should not be a peach, but a lemon.
Junior Sister, this is blatant bias on your part!
The Queen Mother and Lin Xu naturally wouldn't fight with the little girl for food. Seeing her reluctant but sharing expression, the Queen Mother said lovingly, "Grandma doesn't like to eat these. Fu'er, eat them by yourself."
Lin Xu also smiled and said, "I often eat here in the mansion, so you can eat it yourself, Junior Sister."
Wei Fu was so moved that he took a duck leg in his left hand and another in his right hand and began to chew them happily.
The little mouth is greasy from chewing it.
Her appearance made Lin Xu and Tao Zhi, who had already had breakfast, unable to resist eating a lot of food at the Queen Mother's place. The Queen Mother's appetite also improved a lot after having dinner with Wei Fu.
Lin Xu and Tao Zhi both had things to do. Lin Xu only found out from Tao Zhi yesterday that Princess Yahe's daughter was actually his junior sister, so he brought gifts into the palace and came to see her after the morning court.
He treated Wei Fu as his own granddaughter.
Wei Fu reluctantly sent Lin Xu and Tao Zhi to the gate of Shou'an Palace. He held their hands and told them to bring her delicious food next time they came to the palace and to visit her often. Then he let them go. He put his hands behind his back and walked back at a duck's pace like an old man taking a walk.
The first thing he did after returning was to open the gifts. In addition to bringing roast duck to Wei Fu, Lin Xu also gave Wei Fu a box of gold nuggets, a box of very good pink pearls, and a box of silver bills.
Tao Zhi gave Wei Fu snacks and candies that children in the capital liked to eat.
When Eunuch Zhao saw the gift that Lin Xu gave to Wei Fu, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "The Prime Minister dotes on the little princess too much!" That silver note must be worth 10,000 taels!
Not to mention the pearls and gold nuggets, it seems that he has given all his family fortune to the little princess.
