But where did all these people come from?
She didn't think she had ever seen so many people in the palace before.
"Is this the little princess?" a sweet, delicate voice asked.
"ah!"
Yun Duoduo's face was pinched, not squeezed, but pinched and then lifted up forcefully, which hurt a lot!
Moreover, she concluded that this person absolutely, definitely, and certainly did it on purpose!!!
[Damn it, she dared to pinch my face?!]
Yun Duoduo stretched out her small hand to cover her sore and red cheek, and glared at the person who pinched her. She saw that the woman was beautiful and had an extraordinary appearance, but she had the air of a courtesan.
[This vulgar and seductive air is such a waste of such a beautiful face.]
Yun Duoduo felt her eyes getting wet. Out of a baby's instinct, she cried out in pain, but no tears fell.
"Your Highness, please be gentle. The little princess has delicate skin, and her face is already red." Granny Liu stopped Consort Ling from reaching out her hand again, looking at Yun Duoduo with heartache as tears welled up in her eyes.
"You scoundrel, it's not your place to lecture me!" With that, Ling Meiren reached out to pat Yun Duoduo's head.
No sooner said than done, just as Ling Meiren approached Yun Duoduo, intending to pat her little head, Yun Duoduo glared at her fiercely, grabbed her long hair, and pulled it hard.
[Ugly woman, how dare you pinch this princess's face!]
"Ouch! Let go!" Ling Meiren cried out in pain, slapping Yun Duoduo's hand to make her let go.
Yun Duoduo grabbed Ling Meiren's hair and wouldn't let go.
Granny Liu grabbed Ling Meiren's hand, which was flailing wildly. Watching her hair being pulled and her colorful hair ornaments falling to the ground with a clatter, she felt extremely relieved.
Ling Meiren was in so much pain that tears were almost streaming down her face, but Yun Duoduo showed no intention of letting go. She even looked at Ling Meiren with a grin, as if she didn't understand but found it amusing.
"Ouch, it hurts! Someone, come quick! Let go!"
[Let you be so arrogant! What, you still ended up getting yourself into my hands, didn't you?]
Just as she was overjoyed, she heard Ling Meiren's inner voice.
Why didn't that fire kill you that day?!
Yun Duoduo was stunned for a moment.
Could her third assassination attempt be related to Ling Meiren?
So far, Yun Duoduo has survived three assassination attempts. The first was in the dry well in the backyard of Mujin Palace, where she was almost thrown into the well. The second was in the sleeping quarters of Shouchang Palace, where she was almost poisoned to death by the crazy girl Yun Luoxue. The third was in the Buddhist hall, where she was almost burned to death.
It seems she really is lucky. It would be great if she could develop Sun Wukong's fiery eyes after that fire and see through all these demons and monsters!
"Hey little sister, how could you be so careless?"
"The little princess is of noble birth, pampered and spoiled, and has a bad temper. Why did you provoke her?" Consort Zheng walked over gracefully, covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and whispered in Consort Ling's ear.
【Hey?!】
[This strange auntie is being sarcastic and indirect, making veiled accusations; she's really annoying!]
Yun Duoduo grabbed Ling Meiren's hair with her right hand, then climbed onto Consort Zheng, stretched out her left hand, and slapped Consort Zheng across the face.
Wow, this auntie's face feels so soft!
[The foundation was of poor quality; it left her hands covered in rouge and powder!]
Granny Liu looked at Consort Zheng's face, which was patchy with black and white marks, pursed her lips, lowered her head, and tried not to laugh.
"ah!"
Anyway, she's a little darling, so she can do whatever she wants.
On the surface, Yun Duoduo looked cute and innocent, but inwardly she was secretly delighted, thinking, "What kind of mischief could my little cousin possibly have?"
After completing this series of actions, Yun Duoduo seemed a little tired. She let go of her hands, lay back down on the bed, and put on an innocent and carefree smile.
Consort Ling and Consort Zheng paled, their clothes and hair disheveled. They quickly covered their faces with handkerchiefs and left Anqing Palace.
People came and went in the main hall, and after a while, Empress Zhaoyuan arrived.
Upon seeing Empress Zhaoyuan, Yun Duoduo smiled from the bottom of her heart. She knew that Empress Zhaoyuan was genuinely kind to her, and although the Empress was impatient and had a fiery temper, she was actually a very kind person.
"Duoduo, look what your mother brought you!" Empress Zhaoyuan pretended to be mysterious as she hid the gift behind her back.
Yun Duoduo reached out to grab it, drooling all over her face.
Empress Zhaoyuan took out the gifts from behind her and placed them in front of Yun Duoduo.
It was an amethyst elephant vase.
The flower potted plant is made of jewels. The white flower pot is made of mutton fat jade, the flower stem is carved from crescent sandalwood, and the blooming purple flowers and cute little purple flower buds are made of amethyst and pearls. The leaves are made of jadeite, and there are golden butterflies on the flowers, making it look very realistic.
Next to the vase, a baby elephant is touching a purple flower with its trunk, looking very lively and cute.
Upon seeing the precious jade vase, Yun Duoduo's eyes lit up immediately.
What an adorable vase!
Seeing Yun Duoduo's happy expression, Empress Zhaoyuan knew that she was pleased. "I know Duoduo likes flowers. Isn't this pot of flowers beautiful?"
Empress Zhaoyuan picked up Yun Duoduo and gently rocked her.
Yun Duoduo nodded. This pot of flowers is beautiful, and with so many flowers on it, it can definitely be exchanged for a lot of medicine with the medicine box!
After the Empress left, Consort Chen also came. She hadn't wanted to come, but when she heard that Empress Zhaoyuan had arrived, she thought she couldn't lose her composure.
Consort Chen has always had high standards and has always held herself to the Empress's standards in her dealings with the palace.
She always felt that she would become the Empress Dowager someday, and that her good deeds would be praised for generations to come in the palace. Her son was better than the eldest prince in every way, and she herself had to be better than the Empress in every way.
In this way, her position will be secure when her son becomes the crown prince in the future.
Consort Chen looked at the little princess in the cradle, then glanced at the nanny serving beside her, and asked indirectly.
Has Her Majesty the Empress come?
"Your Majesty, the Empress has just left."
Consort Chen reached out to pick up Yun Duoduo, but Yun Duoduo looked at her warily.
Don't drop me on the ground!
After all, it was common for concubines to slip, feel weak, or dizzy while traveling.
Before Consort Chen's hand could even touch the quilt wrapped in clouds, she withdrew it in disgust upon seeing the drool all over her face.
Seeing the little princess's face covered in drool, Granny Liu took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the drool from her cheeks.
As Consort Chen approached Yun Duoduo, Yun Duoduo noticed a gold and jade necklace around Consort Chen's neck. At first glance, the necklace looked remarkably like a gold coin.
