Chapter 36 Yellow Trumpet Flower



[This little girl is interesting. Why is her face so red? Could she have a fever?]

Jin Jinzhi touched Yun Duoduo's face; it wasn't very hot.

[Could it be that the charcoal fire in the sleeping quarters is burning too brightly?]

Yun Duoduo chuckled as she listened to Jin Jinzhi's inner thoughts.

Jin Jinzhi poked Yun Duoduo's round, pink face and took out a handkerchief to wipe the drool from the corner of her mouth.

Why is this girl drooling so much? Could it be some kind of aftereffect from the fire? I should have the imperial physician come and check on her this afternoon.

Yun Duoduo blinked and looked at Jin Jinzhi. She was just being infatuated; she hadn't expected the young man to care about her so much.

Dad really has a keen eye for talent, finding such a reliable young man to protect her.

After applying medicine to her wound, Jin Jinzhi wrapped it with gauze and put her clothes back on.

...

Inside the Zichen Palace, Zhao Zhongquan quickly walked to Yun Beiye's side.

"What, you found out? What exactly happened at the Jade Palace?" Yun Beiye put down the memorial in his hand, rubbed his temples, and looked at Zhao Zhongquan.

"Your Majesty, I interrogated the head maid of the Jade Palace, Kou Dan, and she insisted that this matter had nothing to do with Consort Chen." Zhao Zhongquan looked solemn, but he was also very troubled. For some reason, the servants were all very loyal, and he couldn't get anything out of them.

"Was it Consort Chen who ordered the fire?" Yun Beiye raised an eyebrow. If it really was Consort Chen who set the fire, he would not let her off easily!

"Your Majesty, no arson tools were found in the Jade Palace. I asked the guards at the Buddhist hall, and they said they hadn't seen anyone from the Jade Palace near the hall either." Zhao Zhongquan scratched his head. Who was the arsonist?

At this moment, Zhao Zhongquan felt extremely confused, restless, and miserable.

"Hmm, continue investigating who set the fire." Yun Beiye looked into the distance; the arsonist was hiding quite well.

"Your Majesty, then... Consort Chen..."

Zhao Zhongquan hesitated, wondering whether he should ask Yun Beiye how to punish the people from the Jade Palace.

“Your Highness, after all, it was people from Consort Chen’s palace who led them to the vicinity of the Buddhist hall. They cannot clear themselves of suspicion.”

“The woman named Kodan, who worked at the Jade Palace, was given twenty strokes of the cane and sent to the Sinzheku to perform hard labor.”

"As for Consort Chen, she was not properly disciplined and was given twenty strokes of the cane and confined to her quarters for three months."

"I've instructed the Empress to keep a close eye on the people in the harem. I don't want anything to happen to the little princess again." Yun Beiye's voice was somewhat cold, and his tone revealed exhaustion.

"Yes, this servant will go and convey the decree immediately."

"Hmm, has the matter of finding a wet nurse for the little princess, which I mentioned to you before, been taken care of?"

"Before that personal maid comes out of the laundry department, there must be someone reliable to take good care of the little princess."

"It's all done, it's all done. This servant has found the most experienced and reliable wet nurses and maids in the palace, and has also invited the maids who have taken care of several princes."

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will take good care of the little princess." Zhao Zhongquan smiled broadly when he heard Yun Beiye ask him about this matter. He was very proud of himself and believed that he had handled the task very well. He thought that the little princess would thank him when she grew up.

Yun Beiye nodded. "Yes, it's getting cold. Have someone send some charcoal to Fushuang Palace."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"By the way, Your Majesty, tomorrow the grandson of Prime Minister Xue, the son of Deputy General Yang, the son of Minister Sun, and the nephew of Commander Xiao will all be coming to the capital," Zhao Zhongquan reminded him from the side.

"Hmm, it's good that you reminded me. Tomorrow is the day to select guards for Duoduo."

Now, Jin Jin is guarding Duo Duo's safety in Fu Shuang Palace, but one person is never enough. Besides, Duo Duo has no playmates in the palace. This time, we'll choose guards to see if there are any Duo Duo likes. If there are, they can stay in the palace to keep Duo Duo company.

"I ordered someone to make new clothes for Duoduo, which will be sent to Fushuang Palace in a little while." Tomorrow she will be meeting those old fellows, Prime Minister Xue and his group, and her daughter will definitely be dressed up beautifully to impress them.

He wanted to show those ministers who always boasted about their daughters and granddaughters how beautiful and clever his daughters were!

"Yes, this servant will take care of it right away." Zhao Zhongquan clapped his hands, only then realizing that he had forgotten to send the little princess new clothes, and hurriedly went to the Imperial Clothing Bureau to get the clothes.

...

Inside the Fu Shuang Palace, Yun Duoduo stared wide-eyed at the strange old women in front of her, her eyes filled with a mixture of curiosity and worry.

These elderly women looked quite old; their temples were graying, their faces lacked collagen, and they had noticeable wrinkles around their eyes when they smiled.

This smile is like... what is it like...?

It looks like a large, blooming yellow trumpet flower...

Yun Duoduo wasn't sure if this was the right way to describe it, but just looking at these mothers-in-law made her feel very uncomfortable.

She suddenly realized, could this be the nanny that Uncle Zhao found for her?

She could tell that, judging from her age, her mother-in-law was indeed an experienced and steady woman, but her smile was definitely malicious, and the way they picked her up and put her down was rather hasty and careless.

"The little princess is so cute!" The nanny looked at Yun Duoduo in the cradle; her big eyes and crystal-clear pupils were truly endearing.

The wet nurse picked up Yun Duoduo and pinched her little face.

Yun Duoduo glared at the old woman, her cheeks puffed out in anger. With her soft and cute face, she looked at the old woman in front of her. When she learned to speak, the first thing she would say was to tell them not to pinch her cheeks anymore!

Which young girl would want her face to be touched and pinched every day? It hurts!

While she was still angry, Yun Duoduo suddenly felt something wet on her bottom. Was she going to pee or poop again?!

Sigh, a baby's physiology is truly uncontrollable.

Everyone says that there are many uncontrollable factors after time travel, but unexpectedly, the most uncontrollable factor is herself, so she can no longer complain about others.

Yun Duoduo was a little embarrassed and speechless. Just a moment ago she was glaring fiercely at the nanny, but now she had lost all her arrogance and was waiting expectantly for the nanny to change her clothes.

Alas, we are at the mercy of others, like fish on a chopping board. Life is hard, and I can only sigh.

"Oh dear, little princess, did you wet yourself?" the nanny exclaimed, smelling a foul odor.

"She peed again. I didn't expect the little princess to poop and pee so much!"

"That's right, we've only been here a short while, and we've already peed several times?"

Yun Duoduo was so embarrassed she wanted to disappear into the ground. The handsome Jin Jinzhi was still listening; didn't she have any pride?!

"If you ask me, you should all shut up a bit."

"This is a symbol of great fortune! Look at any other child, how can they eat, drink, and poop as much as a princess?!"
