Su Muyao felt her skin crawl under their gazes.
At this moment, the Minister of Rites asked, "Your name is Yao Yao, right? Your uncle's family has many children about your age. Why don't you go to your uncle's house to play?"
Upon hearing this, the others all gritted their teeth in unison.
The old man actually beat them to it, and the rest of the group were not about to be outdone.
"Yaoyao, Grandpa's house has lots of delicious food and you can play with other kids your age. Why don't you come to Grandpa's for lunch, and Grandpa will take you back home tonight? How about that?"
The one who spoke was General Zhou, a founding veteran.
Su Muyao looked up at the others behind her who were eager to go to her house.
He quickly declined, saying, "There are so many uncles and grandfathers, it wouldn't be appropriate for me to visit any of them. I'll visit them one by one when I have the chance in the future."
The Minister of Rites looked at the founding veteran Zhou with great anger, saying, "It's all your fault, you old geezer. If you hadn't spoken up, you would have definitely gone to my house. Bah, you old codger, you want to meddle in everything."
Soon, the two started fighting on the side. Despite their large age difference, the Minister of Rites didn't care about such things, especially since the founding father had abducted his own sister.
Logically speaking, the Minister of Rites should be in charge, and Old Zhou should call him brother-in-law.
The Minister of Rites was furious, feeling that it was this old bastard who had seduced his beautiful and talented older sister.
Whenever the two met, they would always hurl insults at each other.
Seeing the two arguing fiercely, General Ma rushed up to Su Muyao and asked, "Yaoyao, I'm Uncle Ma. Uncle's family has many horses. Would you like to go see them? Uncle's family has many older brothers who can all take you to play."
Su Muyao wanted to roll her eyes to the heavens. Uncle Ma's house had so many horses? What the hell was that? (?○Д○)?
"Uncle Ma, I told my family that I have to go home for lunch, so I can't come to your house next time. I'll definitely come next time if I have the chance, hehe."
General Ma wasn't annoyed by these words; he simply nodded repeatedly, "Alright, alright, I'll definitely come if I have the chance."
The surrounding ministers also fawned over Su Muyao, calling her "good baby" and acting like she was a three-year-old.
Seeing that they were still harvesting crops, and that the emperor was about to return to the palace, Su Muyao hurriedly said goodbye and went home.
After getting home, I collapsed onto the sofa.
Why are you so tired?
"Dad, you don't know how scary those people are. They're like tigers, looking at me as if they wanted to tear me apart alive at any moment."
Before Su Laosan could say anything, Su Laotou interjected, "You're a princess now, who would dare to eat you alive?"
Su Laosan, who was standing to the side, nodded vigorously: "My dear, you need to be bolder. We may have to go to the palace many more times in the future."
Hearing this, Su Muyao suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "That's right, I received an invitation from the palace. It says that Her Majesty the Empress invited everyone to come and admire the flowers the day after tomorrow."
"If you want to go, then go and take a look." As soon as Grandma Su entered the house, she heard her precious child talking about the invitations, so she chimed in.
The old lady naturally understood that her daughter would have more opportunities to appear in public in the future, so rather than hiding it, she would let her granddaughter be open and honest.
After all, their own granddaughter is sensible and wouldn't easily offend anyone.
As the two were chatting, Xiaochun came in to report.
"The yamen has sent word to the princess."
Su Muyao knew immediately that the verdict had been handed down against the grandmother and grandson who had come to extort money.
My second uncle and my father simply took them to the yamen, explained what had happened, and then hurriedly returned.
They didn't care what the outcome would be. Only after her father and second uncle returned did Su Muyao ask Xiaochun to go and find out what the final verdict would be.
What was the final result?
"Reporting to Your Highness, the old lady was sentenced to ten strokes of the cane and imprisoned for six years. I heard that the girl also tried to frame Young Master Xibao and was also given five strokes of the cane."
Su Muyao felt quite satisfied with the ruling.
The fact that the little girl was only given five lashes was probably because she was still a child and the old woman had instigated her to say such rebellious things.
I figure that family won't bother me again so easily.
I need to start thinking about what gift to give that will be presentable, since it's my first time meeting the Empress.
"Xiaochun, what do you think we should bring when we first meet the Empress to show our respect?"
"Reporting to the Princess, when sending things, this servant thinks that they should be things that can be used."
Upon hearing this, Su Shuyao immediately pulled Xiaochun aside and asked her to tell her about the things that happened in the palace.
"Reporting to Your Highness, normally those noble ladies would just send some gold and silver jewelry."
Su Muyao thought that as an empress, what kind of gold and silver jewelry hadn't she seen?
If she was going to give something, she would naturally give something unusual, and thinking of this, it looked like the electric scooter parked in the yard.
Yes, Long Yuan placed the generator in the Empress's palace, so sending an electric car there would be a good alternative.
I remember when I lent my electric scooter to Longyuan, I heard that he rode it around the palace with the Empress.
I heard at the time that the Empress liked it very much.
They clapped their hands and made the decision.
"Princess, have you decided on a gift?"
"Okay, I'll send you an electric scooter. By the way, could you tell me about the other important people and things in the palace?"
"Among the consorts of these palaces, the highest-ranking is naturally the Empress, followed by the Imperial Concubine. However, the Imperial Concubine and the Empress have always been at odds..."
Because of her advanced age, the Empress Dowager's vision was failing, so she rarely moved around the palace and basically didn't interfere with the power struggles among the concubines.
Upon hearing this, she immediately interrupted the maid, "Are you saying that the Empress Dowager is old and can't see clearly?"
Su Muyao thought that since she was preparing things for the Empress, she couldn't forget the Empress Dowager either.
Especially considering her newly appointed status as a princess, she would inevitably have to move around the palace frequently in the future.
Winning over the big boss will make things much easier in the future, and even if you are schemed against by others, you will have a powerful backer.
Using his divine sense to probe the space, he searched for what he was looking for and found glasses suitable for all kinds of prescriptions in a corner.
Fortunately, I had prepared in advance. It was originally meant for myself, in case I became nearsighted at a young age in ancient times, or developed presbyopia as I got older.
Xiaochun saw her princess sitting on the soft couch, laughing happily.
Knowing that the princess was in a good mood, he didn't want to disturb her any further and quietly withdrew.
"Awooooo!"
Su Muyao saw the maid go out and lock the door from the inside, and then she flashed into the space.
As soon as she appeared in the space, a large pack of wolves came running from afar and surrounded Su Muyao, howling as if they had suffered a great injustice.
The one howling the loudest was the little wolf: "Why are you only coming to see me now? Do you know how I've been these past few days? Have you already forgotten me? Are there other wolves now? Waaaaah!"
