Chapter 45 The Crown Princess in broad daylight
When Bai Taotao came close to him, Lu Jiuyuan felt his ears getting hot and burning.
Bai Taotao's breathing was more like a fire, burning beside her ears.
This made Lu Jiuyuan feel uncomfortable all over, and he raised his hands to cover his ears: "Crown Princess, please be careful with your words and actions!"
Bai Taotao saw him covering his ears and smiled, "I will listen to your Highness."
After saying that, she lowered her head and quickly kissed the back of his hand.
Then Bai Taotao stood up straight and pushed Lu Jiuyuan, with the momentum of a princess.
Lu Jiuyuan quickly withdrew his hand, covered the back of his hand with his other hand, and then gritted his teeth and whispered, "Shameless!"
Damn woman, she actually kissed the back of his hand without any restraint in broad daylight and in front of everyone!
No shame, no reserve, no etiquette, no...
Lu Jiuyuan: ...
Emperor Shengzong didn't notice their little actions. He sat in the main seat and looked at the group of gorgeous women.
A beautiful woman is pleasing to the eye.
Empress Zhou and others were all frightened by Emperor Shengzong's look.
Empress Zhou asked cautiously, "Why are the Emperor and the Crown Prince here?"
Concubine Wen was the most nervous: "Yes, isn't the Emperor in the Imperial Study at this time? When did you and the Crown Prince arrive?"
How much of what they just said did you hear?
Emperor Shengzong slowly raised the teacup, took a sip, and then spoke: "I have only been here for a while, my beloved concubines, don't be nervous."
Concubine Wen:......
It would be strange if she wasn't nervous. Just those words were enough to make her and her father very upset.
However, Emperor Shengzong didn't say anything, and Concubine Wen naturally wouldn't say anything either. She sat beside Emperor Shengzong with a smile and made tea for him.
Seeing Emperor Shengzong's attitude, Empress Zhou knew that he had heard a lot, but as an emperor, he could not act recklessly.
We still have to give General Wen some face.
Emperor Shengzong asked Empress Zhou, "Empress, what happened to the Crown Princess just now? Did you angrily scold her for being presumptuous?"
You know the answer but still ask!
Queen Zhou was secretly complaining in her heart, but she still had to answer with a smile on her face.
"When I was discussing the war in the northern border with the Crown Princess, she said some nonsense, so I scolded her to prevent her from causing trouble."
Emperor Shengzong hummed, "What did you say? Queen and Concubine Wen, tell me."
Queen Zhou couldn't help but secretly criticize Emperor Shengzong's thoughts in her heart.
The emperor dotes on the prince so much that he even protects Bai Taotao. He doesn't want her to offend General Wen, but lets the queen do it instead.
Concubine Wen was conflicted: How could she say this? If she said it, it would bring up the topic of her father's achievements being too great and threatening the emperor's life!
Bai Taotao stood up and said, "Father, this matter started with my daughter-in-law, so I will speak."
Emperor Shengzong: ???
He didn't let her speak, so why was she so active?
Queen Zhou was secretly delighted: He is indeed a fool, eager to offend others and seek his death.
Concubine Wen was a little panicked. Could it be that Bai Taotao was talking nonsense?
Concubine Wen said softly, "Your Majesty..."
Lu Jiuyuan said in a cold voice: "Since the matter started with the Crown Princess, then Father, please let the Crown Princess speak."
That damn woman is good at cheating people.
He wanted to see how she cheated people.
Emperor Shengzong nodded: "Crown Princess, you go ahead."
Bai Taotao picked up the teacup, gulped down the tea, moistened her throat, and then began to speak: "Father, this is what happened..."
Lu Jiuyuan: ...
Damn woman, no manners at all!
Queen Zhou looked at Bai Taotao's rude behavior and covered her lips with a handkerchief, secretly delighted.
Before that, Bai Taotao also drank tea to moisten her throat?
Is this a storytelling?
The Crown Princess is indeed a fool and has no image at all. She is simply a joke.
Bai Taotao really told the story as if she was telling a story, describing it vividly from beginning to end, without adding any exaggeration, just speaking the truth.
After saying this, Bai Taotao angrily said, "Our great Great Yang State is not short of talent. We just lack people who can discover talent and opportunities for talent to display their talents."
"Just like His Highness, although he has only been on the battlefield for three years, he is still the war god Prince feared by the enemy. The battlefield is still a legend for His Highness."
"Now we have my eldest brother, a man of unrivaled courage, who is also a pillar of the country."
"How can General Wen, who is already old and ill-tempered, and who refuses to fight, have the nerve to dare to threaten the emperor with his achievements?"
Hearing these words, Concubine Wen became so anxious that sweat broke out on her forehead, and she kept wiping it with a handkerchief.
The handkerchief in my hand was wet.
Concubine Wen wanted to speak up to defend herself, but Emperor Shengzong didn't say anything, so she didn't dare to speak anymore.
I was so anxious that I sweated even more, and I could even wring water out of my handkerchief.
Emperor Shengzong glanced at Lu Jiuyuan out of the corner of his eye, then nodded calmly, "What the Crown Princess said makes sense."
Hey.
What a great discovery.
When Bai Taotao mentioned the prince's title of God of War, he remained calm and not angry?
You know, after the incident five years ago, Lu Jiuyuan was very averse to people mentioning the title of God of War.
Whoever mentions it will die!
Unexpectedly, Bai Taotao touched this taboo and nothing happened.
No wonder he rushed into the palace in a hurry. It turned out that he was worried that his little princess would be bullied.
Bai Taotao added, "My daughter-in-law also puts the country first, so she listened to her mother's words and softened Concubine Wen's temper to calm her down. Then General Wen will recover and be able to lead the troops into battle."
As she spoke, Bai Taotao proudly raised her little chin, as if asking for credit.
"Father, your daughter-in-law is truly amazing. Just by praising Concubine Wen for a few words, she was able to cure General Wen's illness from a distance."
Bai Taotao asked Emperor Shengzong innocently, "Since my daughter-in-law is so amazing, can she be named a miracle doctor?"
Lu Jiuyuan couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth when he heard her chattering and pretending to be innocent.
Listen to your mother?
Are you sure this isn't to flatter the emperor and save the queen's reputation next week?
Treating General Wen from thousands of miles away?
Is this definitely not a satire on General Wen being a stingy person who pretended to be sick to force her to apologize and whose achievements threatened the emperor?
Look at that dead woman Bai Taotao, she looks so innocent and naive.
But every word he said was full of traps.
Concubine Wen was so anxious that she was sweating profusely: "Your Majesty, are those words of hers compliments? She...she is basically scolding me!"
When Emperor Shengzong looked up, he saw Concubine Wen sweating and his face was full of disgust.
"My beloved concubine, wipe your sweat first, and then tell me how the Crown Princess scolded you. I will definitely take care of it for you."
When Concubine Wen saw that she was being disliked, she quickly took a handkerchief to wipe the sweat off her face, but ended up throwing the handkerchief away.
The wet handkerchief, dripping with sweat, splashed directly onto Emperor Shengzong's face.
Emperor Shengzong: ...
The sweat of a new love is called sweet sweat.
I have been your beloved concubine for seven or eight years. Even the most fragrant sweat will become rotten.
Concubine Wen cried anxiously. When she spoke, her voice was full of coquettishness, trying to act like a spoiled child: "Your Majesty..."
Emperor Shengzong despised her for being such a troublemaker and quickly raised his hand to wipe the sweat off his face: "Don't be impatient, my dear concubine. Tell me how the Crown Princess scolded you, and I will punish her immediately."
She is old, but she still acts coquettishly and cutely. Isn't that annoying?
I'm about to vomit out the leftover rice from three years ago.
Emperor Shengzong was extremely disgusted in his heart, but on the surface he showed great imperial dignity.
