Chapter 172: A Bao Sends a Newborn
Concubine Chun glanced at her and said, "Empress Dowager didn't say anything, so just kneel down."
Concubine Rou: ...
Concubine Hui sighed, "How long do we have to kneel down?"
This kind of situation never happened before. They would go back after meeting the Empress Dowager and paying their respects. After
a while, the palace gate opened again, and the old nanny came out again, "Everyone, go back. The Empress Dowager said that this is how it will be this year. I wish you all a happy new year. The Empress Dowager has heard the intentions of all the ladies." The concubines
were about to explode.
"Ah, are you going back now? We haven't even seen the Queen Mother yet."
The old nanny smiled faintly, "The Queen Mother is busy playing with the little princess, and the weather is so cold, I'm afraid everyone will freeze, so forget it, ladies, please go back."
"No, with so many people, how can the little princess go to Cining Palace?" Some young and ignorant concubines murmured.
Many concubines of low status wanted to show their faces in front of the Queen Mother on the first day of the new year to increase their chances of winning favor in the future.
After all, the Queen Mother is the emperor's biological mother, and a word from the Queen Mother is worth ten years of their own efforts to win favor!
The old nanny immediately drooped her face, "I'm the tenth princess, are you?"
"Nanny, I also want to go in and see the Empress Dowager, I also brought a New Year's gift for the Empress Dowager, I..." Seeing this opportunity, Di Hongluan hurried forward and tugged at the corner of the old nanny's clothes. The
Empress Dowager will definitely like this gift.
It's the Buddhist scriptures she copied by hand!
"Is it the little princess?"
"Nanny, I want to go in and give the New Year's gift to the Empress Dowager in person."
The old nanny frowned, "Little princess, the Empress Dowager won't see anyone today."
"But the emperor's sister went in, she can go in, why can't I?"
This really made the old nanny ask.
The little princess used to look very quiet and sensible, but why is the little princess I saw these few times a little aggressive at such a young age?
"We are both of royal blood. If the emperor's younger sister can enter, I can enter as well."
"Little princess, that's not what I mean." She is a little princess and you are a little princess. How can it be the same?
If you are not destined to be a princess, you cannot have princess syndrome.
Di Hongluan didn't care. She had prepared this gift for several days, waiting to show off in the palace on the first day of the new year. Especially in front of Di Jiaoyang, what's so great about a princess? She is the granddaughter of the emperor's grandmother. After all, she is still a princess!
Humph.
Seeing that Di Hongluan was becoming more and more ignorant, the old nanny didn't say much because of Di Hongluan's identity. In addition, it was the first day of the new year, and her nagging would affect the New Year atmosphere. So she quickly asked Princess Han to come out and take Di Hongluan away.
Before leaving, Di Hongluan refused to give in and gave the gift she had prepared to the old nanny.
"Luan'er, you can't make trouble on New Year's Day." Princess Han comforted Di Hongluan on the way.
Di Hongluan was angry, "Grandma is partial to the princess and dislikes the princess. Mother, was Daddy stupid back then? Why did he give up the throne and become a hostage in place of the Emperor's uncle? If the Emperor's uncle had become a hostage, then Daddy would be the emperor now and I would be the princess."
"Luan'er!" Princess Han glared at her and looked around. Fortunately, the palace road was quiet and no maids or eunuchs heard it. "How can you keep saying these things?"
Di Hongluan pouted, "I just don't accept it."
She is the heroine, where did the heroine's halo go? Even meeting an imperial concubine is such a hassle. This is a little different from the heroine that Di Hongluan imagined. She can't stand the gap of being ignored.
She thinks that since she is the chosen one, everything should go smoothly according to the script and she should become the object of crazy protection by all the big guys in the world.
What went wrong?
Is it because she hasn't met the hero yet?
"But I will find a way to get what belongs to me. I will not give anything away like my father did in the past, which made me suffer and benefit others! The gift I gave to the Empress Dowager today will definitely be liked by her. Mother, let's go back to Prince Han's Mansion first. Maybe the Empress Dowager will come to see me in person later."
Princess Han was surprised, "Can that Buddhist scripture really please the Empress Dowager?"
"Mother, believe me. No one knows the Empress Dowager's preferences better than me."
It would be so easy for her to control the Empress Dowager!
Unlike that idiot Di Jiaoyang, who either cries or eats all day long, just like a piglet. It's so annoying.
In Cining Palace, Abao was held in the Empress Dowager's arms, dozing off and falling asleep.
The old nanny watched from the side, "Empress Dowager, the little princess is the cutest child I have ever seen." After so many years in the palace, she has experienced ups and downs, two generations of emperors, and all kinds of princes. Even when the eldest princess was born, she was not as lovable as Princess Abao.
Looking at the little girl in her arms, the empress dowager was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling, "Abao is different from other children." On
her birthday, Abao wished her a happy birthday, and in her dreams, he cured her of diseases and disasters, and brought her blessings and longevity. She remembered everything clearly. Although it was just a dream, she firmly believed that she could live to this day because of Abao's blessing.
On the first day of the Chinese New Year this year, she had been thinking about meeting Abao. This little girl brought her a new life.
"What are you holding in your hand?" The empress dowager saw the box in the old nanny's hand.
"It's a gift from the young princess to the Empress Dowager."
"That child... is thoughtful." The Empress Dowager smiled, "Show it to me."
The box was opened, and there was a Buddhist scripture. The Empress Dowager was already numb.
This... giving a Buddhist scripture on the first day of the New Year? ? ?
But adhering to the principle that it was the first gift sent by her eldest granddaughter, the Empress Dowager still picked up the Buddhist scripture. It seemed to be hand-copied, which was thoughtful. She opened the first page, and the three big characters of "Ksitigarbha Sutra" appeared in front of the Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager's arms trembled, "Oh my God, this child!"
The Ksitigarbha Sutra, most of which are used for salvation.
The old nanny also changed color when she saw it, "Empress Dowager, this???"
"This child wants to send me away on New Year's Day!"
Who would send the Ksitigarbha Sutra and the Sutra of Deliverance on the first day of the Chinese New Year? These are for the dying.
The old lady quickly put away the things, and kept muttering: "Queen Mother, please calm down. The little princess may be young and ignorant. This..."
There is really nothing to say.
This is like sending a longevity dress to an old lady on the first day of the Chinese New Year. This implies...
