Chapter 57: The weasel pays New Year's greetings to the chicken, with bad intentions

Princess Wen relied on her noble status as a legitimate princess who had been married off to other countries, and she had made great contributions to the country and the imperial court, so she wanted to go up and make things difficult for Concubine Li and Jiujiu!

Or, maybe do something bad to these two people.

Now that she has encountered him, she will not let him go easily.

But she was stopped by the nanny behind her.

"No, Queen."

"Why not?" Princess Wen was puzzled.

The nanny explained, "Now Concubine Li and the Eighteenth Princess are both new nobles, and the emperor dotes on them. If you make things difficult for them, the emperor will definitely be angry when he finds out. Once the emperor is angry, we will not be able to ask him for anything in the future."

"It's not a good idea to continue looking for the Imperial Hospital for your mother's follow-up medication."

That's true.

It just makes people feel a little unwilling.

Princess Wen clenched her fists hidden in her sleeves, trying her best to suppress the emotions surging in her heart.

"Forget it, I won't make things difficult for them." Princess Wen kicked the stone under her feet in anger, "Now saving my mother's life is the most important thing." After a pause, "Mammy, send more people to find out who has the prescription that can remove all poisons? I must ask for it!"

Just as we were talking about this, the person Princess Wen had just sent out came back to report.

There's news about the prescription.

The prescription that can cure all poisons belongs to Princess Eighteen.

A few days ago, a palace maid saw with her own eyes that the deputy director of the Imperial Medical Bureau asked the Eighteenth Princess for the prescription.

"What? It's Princess Eighteen's? Are you kidding me?" Princess Wen expressed her disbelief.

How could such a precious prescription belong to a child?

"My Queen, I am absolutely not mistaken. This is true."

Princess Wen thought about it carefully. The man in front of her was her confidant. He had been helping her to gather information for many years and had never made a mistake. She had no need to doubt him.

"I don't think you dare to talk nonsense."

Princess Wen no longer had any doubts, but her expression looked uglier than if she had been struck by lightning.

Whose prescription is this? Why is it Princess Eighteen's?

You have to understand that she had contributed to the imprisonment of the Thirteenth Prince. Concubine Li and the Eighteenth Princess must have hated her so much, how could they give her the prescription?

Princess Wen paced back and forth anxiously about the prescription and had no time to watch Concubine Li and Jiujiu playing shuttlecock.

But the nanny beside her said with a smile: "Grand Concubine, this is a good thing!"

"Good thing? What's good about it?" Princess Wen seemed a little angry.

She's so anxious, and she still says it's a good thing?

The nanny explained slowly, "If the prescription is in someone else's hands, it won't be so easy for us to get it. We might have to pay a huge price. But if it's in the hands of a little baby, she's just a baby. A piece of candy can trick the prescription out of her hands."

"Don't worry about anything, Queen."

"Don't worry about what happened to the Thirteenth Prince. A baby doesn't understand the grudges and hatreds between adults."

After hearing this, Princess Wen suddenly realized why she was afraid of a baby! She was really worried and confused.

She sighed, and her tense expression relaxed a little. Looking at Concubine Li and her daughter playing shuttlecock not far away, she smiled and said, "Mammy, go and prepare some snacks that the children like, and then wait for Princess Eighteen to be alone."

"Yes, I will go right away."

·

After Jiujiu and Concubine Li played shuttlecock for a while, they returned to the palace.

In the afternoon, Jiujiu and Nan Yuanxiang, who had injured her leg, came out to bask in the sun.

Winter is coming and it is very cold in the house, but the sun outside is very warm and comfortable.

Jiujiu saw Nan Yuanxiang lying in bed all day and having lost all her smile, so she took Nan Yuanxiang out.

At this moment, Nan Yuanxiang was sitting in a wheelchair facing the sun. The warm sunlight coated her body with a faint golden glow. The red birthmark on her face looked like a painted sunset under that light, so beautiful.

Jiujiu praised generously: "Wow, a little fairy painted the sunset on her face, so beautiful!"

When Nan Yuanxiang heard these words of praise, her sad expression disappeared and she started to smile.

No one has ever praised her!

Everyone would just laugh at her.

Only Jiujiu said that things that others thought were ugly looked like paintings and were very beautiful.

"Jiujiu, thank you!" Nan Yuanxiang expressed her gratitude from the bottom of her heart.

[We are all family, why should I thank you? My cousin is so polite.]

【My little cousin is really beautiful. 】

[Even with a birthmark, she is still beautiful. 】

[However, Jiujiu will still help find a doctor who can remove the birthmark as soon as possible and have it removed for my little cousin.]

After hearing Jiujiu's mumblings, Nan Yuanxiang smiled even more brightly and was full of expectations for the future.

Just then, Princess Wen appeared, breaking the warm and beautiful atmosphere between the two.

Princess Wen held the toffee that the children of the Mengdan tribe loved the most in her hand, and came to Jiujiu with a smile, wanting to give it to Jiujiu.

Jiujiu looked at the strange Princess Wen coldly.

This was her first time meeting Princess Wen.

But looking at Princess Wen, she is dressed in exotic attire. No one in the palace dresses like that.

So without asking, Jiujiu could guess who the person in front of him was.

Jiujiu looked at Princess Wen with a complicated expression.

Princess Wen completely ignored the resentment, hatred, anger, and evil in Jiujiu's eyes. Or maybe she thought that she was just a child, meeting her for the first time, how could she have any objection to her? Such an expression was because she was more cautious and afraid when facing strangers.

She was still smiling, her smile was so innocent and beautiful, harmless to humans and animals. If someone didn't know her true nature, they would probably think she was a good person.

"Princess, I am the Queen of the Mondan tribe. I came to the palace to pay a visit today and I bumped into you by chance. I like you very much and I am going to give you this candy to try."

"This is the favorite food of the children in our Mengdan tribe! Even in the capital of Western Chu, you may not be able to buy it."

Princess Wen said this as she handed the toffee wrapped in oil paper to Jiujiu.

"oh!"

Jiujiu responded calmly.

【The weasel pays New Year's greetings to the chicken. 】

【No good intention.】

Nan Yuanxiang didn't know why Jiujiu said that.

But she and Jiujiu formed a united front.

Jiujiu looked at Princess Wen warily, and so did Nan Yuanxiang. The two of them ignored the sweet treats that Princess Wen handed to them.

Princess Wen was not in a hurry and tempted her, "Princess, this candy is delicious. It is sweet, fragrant and sticky. It is different from ordinary candy."

"If you don't eat it, you will regret it for the rest of your life."

"Really? Let me see."

In view of Princess Wen’s enthusiastic recommendation, Jiujiu took the bag of candy from Princess Wen’s hand.

When Princess Wen saw this, she was so happy.

Mammy was right, children were children, unlike adults, and she only needed to give a few candies to make a child submit to her.

She doesn't have to worry about the prescription.

As long as the princess eats the candy and feels happy and lets down her guard against her, she will ask for the prescription again, and then the princess will give it to her.
