Chapter 84 Stealing a Child
Wei was really about to faint from anger. Although her father held a high position, he came from a poor family and had no family background, let alone her mother!
In addition, when she got married, Yun Lie was unwilling to make a grand arrangement for her. He only ordered people to bring a sedan chair to pick her up at night. In a hurry, she couldn't even bring all the dowry that her mother had falsely brought for her.
Ever since she gave birth to Yun Yian and got the match card from the mansion, all the money she should have spent and shouldn't have spent went into the mansion's public account. How could she fill those holes at this time?
Fearing that she would really faint, Wei collapsed on the ground and pinched her philtrum hard.
She raised her head and glared at the housekeeper fiercely: "My dress is dirty, I need to go back and change. I will meet you at the treasury in half an hour."
Wei calmed the housekeeper down with a few words, hurried back to the yard, and immediately ordered her trusted maid to take her token and leave the house.
Although she and he had already agreed that they should never contact each other unless it was absolutely necessary, the situation was extremely urgent now!
…
Little Tangbao, who had no idea how much trouble he had caused the Wei family and how many people he had secretly offended because of his sudden visit, clung to the carriage window tightly and refused to let go.
"I just saw Brother Yi'an in the crowd. He saved me, and I haven't thanked him yet!"
She was afraid that her brother would be beaten again if she left, so she wanted to ask him if he wanted to go back to the palace with her.
Aunt Yao, who was standing by, saw her blinking her big eyes and thought she was trying to act coquettishly with her, so she quickly stretched her neck to look outside.
There's no one here?
Could it be that the little princess saw it wrong?
Hearing the buzzing sounds in the crowd, she wondered if the little princess wanted to get off the car to listen to the fun.
No way!
I've been out for so long, and the news about the Third Prince's Mansion should have spread to the palace. If I go back too late, the Empress Dowager will be worried!
"My Lady, be obedient. I will have all the rumors compiled into a booklet and show it to you later. But we must return to the palace now!"
Hmm~
The little girl pouted and looked unhappy. She had clearly seen Brother Yi An just now, so how come he disappeared when Tang Bao blinked?
Little Tangbao was in a bad mood all the way, and Aunt Yao thought she was sad because she didn't eat the melon in time.
…
But after returning to the palace this time, the little princess was frowning for several days, which was a big deal in the eyes of everyone.
Everyone in Shoukang Palace was going crazy with anxiety. Even the Imperial Hospital had different people coming every day to check on Xiao Tangbao's pulse!
Prince Qing even ordered people to send beautiful little skirts to Shoukang Palace every day, as well as various toys and storybooks that he had heard about and that children liked.
Emperor Liang was in high spirits when he heard the news. Early in the morning, he ordered Eunuch Shen to personally pick up Tang Bao and take him to the zoo to watch the beast fights.
When the Queen Mother learned of Eunuch Shen's intentions, she frowned, grabbed the rope, and walked out. "The Emperor loves to keep those ferocious beasts, but I can't control that!"
"All living things have spirits, but he can't let my precious great-grandson watch that kind of unscrupulous beast fighting!"
"How old is my little Tangbao? Beast fighting is so bloody and terrifying... I'm going to hang a rope in front of the Chenji Palace! Even if I die, I will never let you guys bully my precious great-grandson!"
"Don't be anxious, Queen Dowager! Please calm down, Queen Dowager!" Eunuch Shen knelt down in front of the Queen Dowager with a thud.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor has no ill intentions. He loves Princess Zhaoning dearly, so why would he deliberately scare her and use those beasts to assert his authority over her?!"
"Your Majesty, you're worrying too much! You really are worrying too much!!"
As he said this, he was about to snatch the rope from the old queen's hand.
At this moment...
Little Tangbao, who had been learning to draw talismans and make seals day and night for several days, walked in yawning.
Humph! Father Xi has learned to be evil from that ghost nanny in bloody clothes!
He taught Tang Bao during the day, and Tang Bao was very grateful. Tang Bao lit incense and offered sacrifices to Xifu.
But how could he not let Tang Bao have a good sleep?
Wuuuuuu... Tangbao is still growing, Father Xi is going too far!
“Wow—!!”
The little guy was so sad that he couldn't control himself. He put his hands on his waist and cried loudly with his head tilted back.
Eunuch Shen was so frightened that his heart trembled violently, and he quickly crawled to her on his knees.
He knelt at the little guy's feet, and like a magic trick, he took out a bunch of snacks, put them into little Tangbao's arms like presenting treasures, and slapped his mouth lightly one after another.
"I am guilty, I deserve to die. I shouldn't have rashly come to pick up the princess just because I thought the zoo would be very lively today, with not only beast fights but also performances and various competitions."
"The Empress Dowager's concerns are not without reason. The Colosseum is a life-or-death situation. The bloody scenes are definitely not suitable for children and will inevitably scare Her Highness..."
"Don't worry, Princess. I will return to Chenji Palace and report immediately. Even if I have to sacrifice my life, I will persuade the Emperor not to allow the young prince to enter or leave the zoo."
Eunuch Shen was crying. If he didn't know what kind of person this old fox was, even the old empress dowager would have been almost deceived by him.
The Queen Mother said: "Tangbao, come here, come to find Zuzu, Zuzu will take you to dinner."
Xiaotangbao: "..."
The little guy who was holding his breath finally understood at this moment that Grandpa Shen was following the emperor's order and wanted to take Tangbao out to play!
Although Grandpa Shen is not a righteous and kind person, he is very good to Tang Bao and he will not harm Tang Bao.
The eyes of little Tangbao, who had a bruise on his face, lit up and he immediately handed the thing in his arms to Zhilan and Zhimei.
"Great-grandmother, Tangbao will be back soon. Come have dinner with me tonight!"
Without waiting for the old empress dowager's consent, she immediately threw herself into Eunuch Shen's arms, "Elbow, let's go to the zoo right away. We can't let His Majesty the Emperor wait for Tang Bao!"
No matter how fiercely the beasts fight, can they be as violent and bloody as those ugly monsters?
Tangbao is so tired, Tangbao wants to have sex!
In the past few days, the little guy not only learned how to use the soul bottle, but also learned how to draw peace amulets, mantra amulets, psychic amulets, rebound amulets, and even learned the corresponding mantra and psychic techniques.
She was really exhausted.
Counting it up, Xiao Tangbao could have drawn six prizes, but unfortunately, when she was learning to use the soul bottle, she accidentally let the scholar ghost run away...
Yanli said that although she learned quickly, she was not yet proficient in applying the skills, and the talismans she drew were not effective enough. When she became proficient in applying the skills, they would reward her together.
Tang Bao felt that whether something was good or not, whether one was proficient or not, could not be decided by Father Xi alone. She had to find an opportunity to try them all.
Eunuch Shen: “…”
Since the princess herself has agreed...
He kept his eyes and ears open, and with lightning speed, he picked up little Tangbao and ran away. When he passed by the old queen mother, he did not forget to snatch the rope from her hand.
The Queen Mother: “!?”
"That damn little Shen Ying, stole the child and brought him to my palace?!"
The old queen was so angry that she felt dizzy. "Quick, prepare the car, I want to go to the zoo too!"
