Chapter 212. The boss collects gold, Yunhua accepts gifts
The carriage swayed slowly to the palace gate.
As soon as Yun Xiaotian got off the carriage, Chen Zhehan came forward with a smile: "Hey, Old Yun, you're here quite early."
He remembered that in previous years this guy would always dawdle until the very end before entering the palace.
"What kind of wind is blowing this year?" Chen Zhehan stretched out his hand to feel the wind direction and joked.
Yun Xiaotian rolled his eyes at him, then a smile spread across his face, and he put his arm around his shoulder like a good friend.
"Old Chen, our families will be relatives in the future anyway, so I won't be shy with you." Yun Xiaotian rubbed his fingers, and this action made Chen Zhehan's eyelids twitch.
He swept down Yun Xiaotian's arm that was on his shoulder and immediately jumped away.
"Wait... Let's be clear first. Your youngest son and my daughter are not engaged yet, so they are not considered in-laws for the time being."
He did not forget that he wanted to arrange the marriage between the two of them as soon as possible, but was treated with condescension by Old Yuntou.
Now they are calling each other relatives, which is contrary to their usual behavior. There is definitely no good news.
"No!"
Yun Xiaotian shamelessly approached again: "Do you want to live a hundred years?"
Chen Zhehan didn't say anything, just stared at Yun Xiaotian.
"Then do you want to renew your promise with your wife in the next life?"
Chen Zhehan:!!!
"Come on, what do you want to say?"
Yun Xiaotian chuckled, "My little girl's birthday is today. You didn't know in advance and didn't prepare a gift in advance. I don't blame you; but you can give her a birthday red envelope, and give her a New Year's red envelope as well."
Chen Zhehan's eyes suddenly widened, "Old Yuntou, you...you are so shameless!"
Who would speak directly?
Yun Xiaotian shrugged. "Shame on you, then. Besides, it's my little girl's birthday today. She could be at home with us, but she ends up staying with you old gentlemen instead. You don't even give her a gift."
Chen Zhehan wanted to spit at him. He was indeed the head of the civil servants and was the worst at distorting the facts.
"Live long, continue your love, solve the murder case..." Yun Xiaotian muttered in his ear. Chen Zhehan glared at him. It would have been fine if he hadn't known about it beforehand.
Now that he knew the little girl's birthday, and that she had indeed helped him solve many cases, he turned and walked towards Yunhua.
"Princess Yong'an!"
Yunhua looked up and saw several silver bills in front of him.
"Happy birthday! May all your wishes come true and you be happy every day. This is the birthday pocket money I give you. If it's not enough, ask me for more!" Chen Zhehan was very generous.
Yunhua???
"Girl, take it quickly!" Yun Xiaotian looked happy.
"A gift from an elder cannot be declined. Lord Chen has a good relationship with my father. He just heard that today is your birthday and he can't stop giving you a gift."
Chen Zhehan: ???
He stared at Yun Xiaotian with a chuckle.
Ever since this girl supported him, he felt very proud. If he hadn't known that Lao Yuntou would not rebel, he, the Minister of Justice, would have arrested him first.
Yun Xiaotian seized the opportunity and pulled everyone he saw.
But in a short while, Yunhua's wallet was filled with blessings.
The news that it was her birthday today quickly spread to the harem.
"What!"
The Queen Mother suddenly stood up from her seat: "Is today my little sister's birthday?"
"Madame Gu, hurry up and open the storeroom. Install all the small gold ornaments for me!"
It’s her younger sister’s birthday, so as the older sister, how could she not prepare generous gifts?
"Return to the Queen Mother... Queen Mother."
Nanny Gu stood there with a troubled look on her face, and after hesitating for a moment, she finally spoke the truth: "Empress Dowager, the gold jewelry in your storeroom is gone. How about packing other things?"
“No…no more?”
The Queen Mother was surprised and said, "All my gold jewelry is gone."
Nanny Gu had been with her all her life, and the Queen Mother never doubted her.
"Yes, Princess Yong'an loves small pieces of gold the most. You, Queen Mother, have always given them to her. Some time ago, the Emperor even exchanged all the last of his gold ornaments from you."
The Queen Mother's mouth twitched fiercely when she heard this.
Yes!
Everyone in the entire dynasty knew that her younger sisters loved Little Gold only.
"Let's go to the emperor and get our little gold back!" The empress dowager was imposing and walked towards the imperial study in a heroic manner.
"Empress Dowager, the ladies of honor will come to Chonghua Palace to pay their respects."
The Queen Mother paused.
He said nonchalantly, "Inform them. No need to greet them. Just let them sit in the main hall!"
There's nothing to greet. Compared to her younger sister's birthday gift, it's not worth mentioning.
"Oh, by the way, Nanny Gu, send someone to the princes and ask them to show respect to the elders and give them New Year gifts in advance. Those who are sensible should send the little gold, unless they want to be labeled as unfilial."
Nanny Gu straightened herself up and immediately made arrangements.
Not only the Queen Mother, but the Queen was also walking towards Emperor Wenxuan with other things in her hand. She wanted to redeem all her little gold.
This time she wants to give the little girl a big red envelope.
If it weren't for her, I don't know when I would be able to hold my grandson.
She heard from the Crown Princess that she could hold two babies at a time.
A little grandson of the emperor and a little princess.
The Queen was extremely excited at the thought that two chubby little guys would soon hold her and call her Imperial Grandmother.
"Empress, I heard that the Queen Mother is now going to the Emperor to exchange the gold back!" The nanny beside the Queen reminded.
"What?!"
The Queen exclaimed, her steps quickening: "Hurry up, we must change before Mother!"
The East Palace on the other side.
"daughter in law?"
The prince dragged out the words, looking quite aggrieved. It was not easy for his wife to be quiet for a few days, but when he heard about the melon-eating spirit's birthday, he just walked out of the East Palace gate and immediately turned back to pry open his second small warehouse.
"Wife, isn't it a bit too much? Can the melon-eating spirit handle it..." The prince hadn't finished speaking.
A murderous intent quickly glared at him.
The Crown Princess lifted her belly, and the imperial physician had confirmed that the baby in her belly was already three months old.
"Don't forget how the baby in my belly came about!"
The prince muttered quietly: "That was the seed I sowed first..."
"What did you say!"
The Crown Princess's eyebrows were raised, her eyes wide open: "Say it again and see, believe it or not I will immediately take the child to seek refuge with their godmother!"
"If Princess Yong'an hadn't captured a spirit baby and given it to us, it would be questionable whether your seed could survive."
The Crown Princess felt a headache just seeing him, and she said, "If you have nothing to do, go wait outside and don't interfere with me choosing gifts for my little sisters."
The prince choked.
Ever since this little girl came into being, his relationship with his wife has been in jeopardy.
He was about to say something when two urgent voices came from outside.
"Brother Emperor, help is needed, please lend me some of your little gold!"
"Brother Crown Prince, I want to borrow some too!"
The second prince and the third prince rushed in directly. One was forcibly replaced by his grandmother, and the other had been sent away before.
They have plenty of everything except gold.
Prince: ...
