Chapter 74 Got it
Lu Jiuyuan's heart was broken when he saw this. He hated to see Xiaobao cry the most.
Lu Jiuyuan was furious when he saw that Bai Taotao didn't react and seemed to be watching with great interest.
Bai Taotao, watching her own daughter cheating others:???
How did she offend Lu Jiuyuan?
His handsome face and voice were cold as ice: "Since the Queen Mother won't give you anything, why bother trying to make Xiaobao happy? Do you think she's easy to bully?"
Empress Zhou also felt wronged: "Crown Prince, if the little princess wanted something else, I would give it to her, but I really cannot give her this phoenix seal and phoenix robe."
Lu Jiuyuan snorted coldly: "If you are not sincere, don't make any promises."
Empress Zhou was so embarrassed that she could only say, "Besides these two things, if the princess wants anything else, I will give it to her."
Bai Taotao looked at Lu Jiuyuan, he actually understood this principle.
She narrowed her eyes slightly, and then said to Lu Jingbai gently, "Xiaobao, the Queen will definitely not regret this time. Let's be good children and change another one, okay?" Lu Jingbai pouted aggrievedly, wrote silently, and raised his small board: [Are you really not lying this time? ]
Bai Taotao looked up and asked Queen Zhou.
Queen Zhou thought that as long as it was not the phoenix seal and the phoenix robe, there was nothing in the Fengling Palace that she could not give.
Even this phoenix hairpin was given to her.
Just as Queen Zhou was thinking about this, Lu Jingbai was already looking at her phoenix crown with his big, wet eyes, shining in his eyes.
Phoenix hairpins are fine, but phoenix crowns are not!
Queen Zhou was panicked!
Bai Taotao watched and quickly said to Lu Jingbai, "You can't have the Phoenix Seal, Phoenix Robe, or Phoenix Crown."
The pit is a little bigger.
Empress Zhou had the chance to step down and quickly said, "Yes, your mother is right. All three cannot be given, except these three..."
Empress Zhou raised her hand and pointed at the phoenix hairpin on her head: "Even if you want this phoenix hairpin, I will give it to you."
This is the silly Crown Princess who helped to speak up, and it wasn't her who didn't give it in the end.
After all, the fact that she was willing to give the phoenix hairpin this time already showed her queenly demeanor.
Lu Jingbai frowned, pouted, and quickly wrote: [I don't want that ugly bird cross.]
Queen Zhou: ...
This is not a bird fork, this is a phoenix hairpin!
Don't be the best.
Empress Zhou smiled even more kindly and amiably: "Whatever the little princess likes this time, I will definitely give it to you."
When it could represent the symbol of her identity, it has been excluded, and now she is not afraid that Lu Jingbai will ask for it.
A four-year-old child is definitely easy to fool.
Lu Jingbai blinked and shook her bald head with a few yellow hairs, indicating that she didn't want it.
Mei Wenpin looked at it and immediately covered her mouth with a handkerchief, laughing gloatingly: "The Queen has refused to give it to the little princess three times in a row. Now she has lost her credibility with the little princess, so she simply doesn't want it."
Queen Zhou saw Lu Jingbai shaking his head and planned to go down the stairs and give him a reward.
As a result, Mei Wenpin actually caused trouble.
Bai Taotao also protected Lu Jingbai: "If the Queen Mother doesn't want to give it to you, then don't bother to make Xiaobao happy. As a mother, my heart breaks when I see it."
Queen Zhou curled her lips again.
Li Zongguan couldn't stand it any longer: "Empress, it's understandable that you don't explain these three things. The Emperor won't blame you."
But if you make promises but are still unwilling to give, it would be a joke.
It would also make the emperor dissatisfied with her.
Lu Jiuyuan held Lu Jingbai tightly in his arms and said, "I will carry you to the Golden Palace to ask your grandfather to sit on the dragon throne and ask for the imperial seal."
A broken phoenix seal and a torn piece of clothing, what's so special about them?
Empress Zhou saw that this person was clearly about to file a complaint, so she quickly said, "Little Princess, I will not lie this time. As long as the little princess chooses, I will give it to her. If not, I am a puppy."
She wanted to beg this little ancestor to choose something quickly.
Why do people kowtow to her when she gives them gifts?
Whenever she gave Lu Jingbai something, she wanted to kowtow and beg the little ancestor to quickly choose one.
Lu Jingbai tugged at Lu Jiuyuan's clothes, asking him to stop, then picked up the small board and wrote: [Are you begging me to choose a gift?]
When Bai Taotao saw this word, she lowered her eyes and smiled softly.
Xiaobao is really good at cheating people. When she wants a gift, others have to beg her to give it to them.
Empress Zhou felt aggrieved and quickly smiled to please: "I like the little princess very much and want to give her something. This is like me begging the little princess to take a gift."
She was definitely the first one to feel so uncomfortable when given a gift.
Lu Jingbai then reluctantly frowned and began to write quickly.
She held up the small board and said, "I like this house. Your Majesty, can you give it to me?"
Bai Taotao watched and almost laughed to death.
She never thought that Xiaobao would actually want a house, and it was Fengling Palace!
She no longer had the phoenix seal, phoenix robe, and phoenix crown, but as long as she was in Fengling Palace, she was the queen.
If this were to be moved out of Fengling Palace, it would become an even bigger joke.
Lu Jiuyuan looked down at Lu Jingbai with disdain: "What a waste."
Queen Zhou's expression suddenly fell apart, and she could no longer smile: ...
house……
This house is Fengling Palace, the palace where queens of all dynasties lived and a symbol of the queen’s status!
Mei Wenpin even asked with a gloating look on her face: "Young Princess wants this Fengling Palace. Will the Empress give it to her? If not, then you will..."
puppy!
She covered her mouth and smiled: "This is the Queen's personal promise."
The other concubines couldn't help but smile.
Bai Taotao looked at Queen Zhou very frankly and said, "Mother, can you give me Fengling Palace? Please give Xiaobao a definite answer. She is still waiting."
Queen Zhou was extremely upset and begged Lu Jingbai for a gift, but she couldn't give it away. In the future, she would have to bear the reputation of lying to children and calling them puppies.
However, these are the things that cannot be given away.
Queen Zhou closed her eyes and didn't care about her face anymore, just let the puppy be a puppy.
Empress Zhou said, "We cannot give you Fengling Palace. Even if I am willing to give it to you, the Emperor will not be willing to give it to you. You should choose another one."
This is the palace where queens of all dynasties lived!
Lu Jingbai pouted, and then his big eyes were watery with tears.
She wrote with tears in her eyes and held up the small board: [I am a good child. I won't make things difficult for you. I don't want the house anymore. Thank you for your reward. I am very happy.]
At this time, Emperor Shengzong's voice was heard: "What is so precious that even I am unwilling to give it to you?"
Then the eunuchs chorused, "The Emperor has arrived."
The bright yellow figure of Emperor Shengzong appeared at the door. Empress Zhou quickly stood up and led the concubines forward to pay their respects.
Also coming in at the same time were the virtuous prince Lu Linyuan and his wife Bai Jinfeng, who also paid their respects to Queen Zhou.
Lu Jingyan got off Emperor Shengzong and climbed into Bai Taotao's arms. His voice was milky and he was very happy: "Mother, I missed you so much."
Bai Taotao whispered to him, "Did you enjoy attending court? Did you get your grandfather into trouble?"
Lu Jingyan rolled his eyes a little guilty, but he didn't dare to lie, so he pinched his little finger and said, "It's just a small trouble, as small as a sesame seed. Grandpa Emperor is not angry."
Emperor Shengzong asked everyone to excuse themselves and looked at the tiny Lu Jingbai, who was buried in Lu Jiuyuan's arms, with only a few yellow hairs sticking out of his little head.
This kitten-like look made Emperor Shengzong's grandfather feel excited, and he wanted to hug her: "Xiaobao, come here and let Grandpa Huang hug you."
Without even looking up, Lu Jingbai hugged Lu Jiuyuan's neck tightly, then hid his little face, leaving only the back of Sheng Zongdi's head with a few little yellow hairs.
Although they were close just last night, Emperor Shengzong knew that Lu Jingbai was unhappy.
So, Emperor Shengzong frowned and turned his head to ask Empress Zhou: "Why is Xiaobao still being wronged here?"
Empress Zhou felt wronged, and she quickly said, "I have wronged the little princess, and I just want to comfort her..."
She explained the whole process and then said aggrievedly, "I really cannot give you these three things that the young princess wants. Otherwise, it would be against the rules."
Bai Taotao was about to speak when Lu Jiuyuan was one step ahead of her.
Lu Jiuyuan said coldly, "Xiaobao didn't ask for the gift, nor did he force you to get it. You were the one who said that lying to a child is like being a puppy. How come the Queen is even more aggrieved than she is? It's as if Xiaobao forced you to do it."
Queen Zhou was really aggrieved. She really wanted to please Lu Jingbai and give him a gift.
But this little kid is difficult to deal with. She can't give away the things she picks.
Queen Zhou felt aggrieved: "But..."
Bai Jinfeng came out in time and interrupted Queen Zhou in a soft voice.
Bai Jinfeng said, "Father, I don't think it's because Queen Mother is unwilling to give the little princess a gift. Even if the little princess wanted the stars in the sky, Queen Mother would definitely have someone pick them for her."
She had been having a rough time these past few days, all because of Bai Taotao.
She had no intention of plotting against them.
But if it was someone she handed over, she wouldn't mind saying a few words.
After all, it was Bai Taotao and the others who brought this upon themselves, and made things difficult for their mother.
She is not stepping on anyone, but protecting her mother. She is a filial daughter-in-law.
When Bai Taotao heard this, she couldn't help but look at Bai Jinfeng. She was worthy of being the heroine of the original novel, she spoke very fluently.
Bai Jinfeng looked up at Emperor Shengzong, whose expression was a little gloomy, and tried to guess what he was thinking.
Seeing that he wasn't angry, Bai Jinfeng continued, "The Phoenix Seal, including the Fengling Palace and other things, were given by my father. Even if my mother wants to give it to me, she needs my father's permission."
This thing is not something that Queen Zhou can give just because she wants to. It depends on whether the emperor and the civil and military officials are willing to give it.
Even if the emperor and empress are willing, will the civil and military officials agree?
All the civil and military officials will definitely criticize Bai Taotao and Lu Jingbai, and Bai Yunting will also be affected. He has not even become a high-ranking official, but he has already started to threaten the emperor with his achievements.
Once these charges are brought, how many members of Bai Taotao's family will be able to recover?
So not only Queen Zhou dares to give it, but Bai Taotao and the others also have to dare to take it!
Empress Zhou immediately understood and no longer felt wronged. Instead, she was very generous: "I love the little princess very much. Let alone the phoenix seal and the palace, even if she wants the stars and the moon in the sky, I will have them picked and given to her."
She said generously, "Your Majesty is willing to give the Phoenix Seal to the little princess, so naturally I am happy too."
Throw the problem over to the emperor and see what he does.
Lu Linyuan also spoke kindly: "The little princess is still a child, she doesn't understand the meaning of these things, the child is just watching for fun, why don't you agree to her request."
He even hoped that Lu Jingbai would be a little greedy and ask for more, preferably even the imperial seal.
In this way, the auspicious little princess of Dayang Kingdom gained a reputation for being greedy, which brought a lot of harm to Bai Taotao and her family.
Empress Zhou also understood the reasoning behind this, and was even more generous and forthright: "Pack the phoenix seal and wash the phoenix robe, and then alter it to a smaller size for the little princess. I like her, so I will give her these worldly possessions."
Moreover, the emperor would definitely not give these things to Lu Jingbai. He would even think that she was being arrogant and demanding, and would become disgusted with her.
If you don’t have a noble status, you will be in trouble if you take these valuable things!
Bai Jinfeng and the other two knew this, so they no longer worried about whether they could give it or not. Instead, they were very generous and straightforward.
Bai Taotao looked at Bai Jinfeng, raised her eyebrows slightly, curled her lips and snorted sarcastically.
As expected of the male and female protagonists of the original novel, their speaking skills are perfect and irrefutable.
Moreover, after these words were spoken, Lu Jingbai really took the Phoenix Seal. That meant she was greedy, and Bai Taotao raised an ignorant child.
Queen Zhou also resolved the dilemma just now, which made her appear magnanimous.
What's more serious is that this will bring disaster to Bai Taotao and her three little ones, as well as her parents and brothers from her mother's side. Some of their enemies are waiting for this opportunity to make things difficult for them.
Mei Wenpin in front of him was waiting to see the show.
Now Lu Linyuan and Bai Jinfeng are hoping that Lu Jingbai will ask for more things.
In a word, it can not only solve the queen's situation, but also put Bai Taotao in a dilemma.
Lu Jiuyuan glanced at them and guessed what they were thinking.
However, as a dying man, he didn't care about these principles and didn't have any taboos.
He just wants Xiaobao to be happy.
Lu Jiuyuan lowered his head, his voice involuntarily becoming gentler: "Xiaobao, the Phoenix Seal is not fun to play with. I'll go get you the Jade Seal to play with later." Emperor Shengzong: "Ahem."
This kid hasn't even taken the throne from him yet, but he's already arranged the whereabouts of his imperial seal.
The obedient Lu Jingyan's eyes suddenly lit up: Yes! He wants the imperial seal, my dear sister, please help me get it!
What’s so fun about the phoenix seal? The jade seal is fun!
Bai Taotao was unyielding: "Xiaobao, since the Queen Mother wants to give you the Phoenix Seal, you should accept it. Remember to be a polite child and say thank you."
Only then did Lu Jingbai raise his little face from Lu Jiuyuan's arms. His big, grape-like eyes were red and filled with tears, which made people's hearts soften.
She looked at Emperor Shengzong, her face flushed, and she managed to utter a word in a milky voice: "Master?"
This was the second time Lu Jingbai spoke, and he called Emperor Shengzong, asking him if he could have it.
Lu Jiuyuan looked down at the tiny Lu Jingbai in his arms: ...
The second time I spoke, I was still talking to him!!!
Bai Taotao was also very surprised: "Xiaobao, you finally spoke again."
This instantly delighted Emperor Shengzong: "The Queen is so generous. There's no need to give Fengling Palace to her. Just let Xiaobao play with the Phoenix Seal and Phoenix Robe."
Empress Zhou's expression changed instantly: "Your Majesty..."
Emperor Shengzong gave her a cold look and said, "Why, Queen, were you just being polite to coax Xiaobao? Or are you not keeping your word and want to be a queen who is as good as a puppy when she lies?"
Queen Zhou looked up at Lu Linyuan and Bai Jinfeng and saw that they both nodded to her.
She had no choice but to bite the bullet and force a smile: "If the little princess likes it, then I will give it to her."
Just give them away first. When they get into trouble in the future, they will naturally take the initiative to return the Phoenix Seal and Phoenix Robe and beg her to accept them.
Bai Jinfeng and Lu Linyuan were also surprised, but they didn't think too much about it.
They had similar ideas to Queen Zhou. If they took things that were not suitable for their status, it would be their bad luck.
What's more, Lu Jiuyuan is a dying man, so there is no need for him to do too much and leave a bad stain on himself.
And, this is exactly what they wanted.
Emperor Shengzong personally handed the Phoenix Seal to Lu Jingbai, his face full of kindness and love: "Xiaobao, can you please call me Grandpa Emperor again?"
The sound of milk gurgling is so beautiful.
Lu Jingbai happily accepted the Phoenix Seal, and then did a shocking move!
