The empress is pregnant, and the emperor's incense continues
Chapter 104 The Holy Monk Emperor Moves the Heart 12
Meng Yuanchu had always wanted an object that could represent King Jing's identity so that he could prove their friendship in the future. He thought that the jade pendant and the phoenix hairpin had the same function.
King Jing Jing's words were so gentle and considerate that she couldn't help but want to take out the jade pendant and return it.
After all, it was her daughter who was reserved. After accepting the phoenix hairpin with a smile, she said with a smile: "Mom, please go and ask. Once I get the jade pendant, I will return it to the prince immediately."
Mrs. Wei found out about this and was surprised that King Jing valued the jade pendant so much. In this case, it must not be returned easily.
King Jing couldn't get the jade pendant back, so he couldn't sit still. He coaxed Meng Yuanchu in different ways all day long, and sent gifts to the Duke's Mansion every day, hoping that the aunt would do well and return the jade pendant.
Here King Jing and Meng Yuanchu were struggling to the limit. Meng Wenyao in the palace was like a wilted cucumber, her spirit became listless day by day.
The emperor wouldn't let her go to the Qinzheng Palace, and the emperor himself wouldn't come to the Anle Palace. How long will this good impression last?
"The Queen Mother, why hasn't the Emperor come to greet you these past few days?"
The Queen Mother sighed and said quietly: "There was a flood in the south of the Yangtze River. I heard that hundreds of thousands of people were displaced and they all rushed to the capital to escape. Many refugees have gathered outside the capital. I am afraid that the emperor has been worried about this matter for the past few days."
And this thing? Meng Wenyao only cared about her little daughter and had no idea that the world would suffer such a disaster.
Meng Wenyao has no solution to the natural disaster, but whenever there is a major disaster, donations of money and materials must be carried out.
"Empress Dowager, let's send a message to the young ladies of each family, asking them to come to the palace to participate in the auction. Everyone can bring out their own things to sell, and we will donate the money sold to the national treasury, which is also considered a help. Can you do me a little favor, Your Majesty?"
The Queen Mother has great foresight and everyone's contribution will make the flames brighter. If everyone donates money together, we will definitely be able to tide over this difficulty.
"Okay, just do as Yao'er said."
Three days later, all the prominent young ladies in the capital came to the palace to participate in the auction.
Meng Yuanchu was among them. She had someone send a message to King Jing, saying that she had found the jade pendant. She planned to sell it at an auction and let King Jing buy it back, which would also be a donation to the victims.
King Jing was sweating after hearing this. How could that jade pendant be sold like this? Did he think it was too strong on his head?
The Imperial Garden was crowded with people, and the auction was going on in an orderly manner. The gentlemen and ladies from all the families were so kind-hearted that they took out their treasures for auction, and soon accumulated a lot of money.
The Queen Mother was very happy and praised Meng Wenyao for her good work. She wanted her to show off to the emperor and specifically asked her to report to the emperor. It would be best if she could bring a piece of the emperor's calligraphy to be auctioned.
Meng Wenyao followed the order and was stopped at the entrance of Qinzheng Hall.
"Eunuch Li, I came here in the name of the Queen Mother to report the progress of the auction. Are you sure you want to stop me?"
Eunuch Li was a little hesitant, thinking that it would be fine in broad daylight. While hesitating, he heard Meng Wenyao say: "Just for the sake of the suffering people, can Eunuch Li go and report it?"
For this reason, and Eunuch Li was also worried about the victims, how could he continue to stop him and go back to report to the emperor.
The emperor was reading the fund-raising brochure of the Ministry of Finance, and his brows were so tight that he could kill a mosquito. When he heard Eunuch Li talking about the auction, Meng Wenyao had brought it to raise money, and he instantly forgot about his previous prohibition.
In a blink of an eye, Meng Wenyao arrived in front of the emperor and reported the auction.
"My daughter heard that the emperor was thinking day and night for the victims. My daughter followed the Queen Mother in reciting sutras, and had trouble sleeping and eating. She thought that she must do something for the victims no matter what, so she suggested that the Queen Mother invite all the young ladies from the family to come together and donate her Things were sold and the money raised was donated to the treasury.
When my daughter came over, 5 taels had been prepared for the auction. I thought the emperor didn't know yet, so I came here to report it. I have a small request. I wonder if the emperor can agree to it? "
The emperor's expression remained unchanged and he calmly said: "Say."
"My daughter would like to ask for a piece of calligraphy from the emperor. Selling it at the auction will be the icing on the cake for today's auction."
"allow."
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will come back later to report the progress to you."
It wasn't until Eunuch Li delivered the emperor's calligraphy treasure to Meng Wenyao and sent her out of the Qinzheng Palace that he breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, there was no trouble today. I hope Miss Meng won't have convulsions in the future.
Meng Wenyao took the palace maid and rushed to the imperial garden with the calligraphy treasure in hand. Beside a rockery, she heard the two of them talking, and they seemed to mention her, so she quietly walked over to hear who it was.
"Good sister, I really can't sell that jade pendant. Please return it to me as soon as possible."
"The prince is so stingy. It's just a jade pendant. I'm afraid it wasn't because I took it. The prince has been begging for it every three days. If Meng Wenyao took it, the prince would never do this to her."
It turned out to be King Jing and Meng Yuanchu. Meng Wenyao didn't want to hear the two of them flirting, so she turned to leave, but suddenly came back. She still wanted to listen. If their progress was too slow, she could also add a little more firewood.
"Sister, I have misunderstood. It is not convenient to give this jade pendant to anyone, let alone Wen Yao. Even if the Nine Heavens Fairy comes to earth, I will not give it to you. Good sister, please return it to me as soon as possible."
How could Meng Yuanchu give it to him? He said coquettishly: "Then tell me, prince, do you like Meng Wenyao more, or do you like me more?"
"Of course it's you. I have already said that I have no choice but to deal with her just because we are engaged."
King Jing looked serious and wanted to swear to the sky immediately.
Meng Yuanchu smiled sweetly: "I don't believe it. Meng Wenyao has a charming face. I can't stand her face if any man is not moved by it."
King Jing shook his head firmly and said seriously: "I really don't think she is good-looking. In my heart, the most beautiful girl is you, sister Yuanchu."
"Really? Then you put this packet of rose powder in her tea. I heard my mother said that if she touches roses, her face will be red and swollen. It will take half a day to subside. If you put it in, it will ruin her face, I will trust you."
In order to get back the jade pendant, King Jing has been tormented by Meng Yuanchu these days. Now that he has a chance to get it back, he can do it, let alone a bag of pollen or a bag of arsenic.
Seeing that the matter had come to an end, Meng Wenyao led the palace maid back slowly, took a detour, and returned to the auction.
After a while, King Jing and Meng Yuanchu came back. King Jing came to the Queen Mother and waited for a while, passing tea and snacks, and then handed a cup of tea to Meng Wenyao.
Meng Wenyao took it and held it in her hand to laugh, but she didn't expect that the original owner was allergic to roses.
After she took the Poison-proof Pill, she would naturally not be allergic, but why not take advantage of such an obvious frame-up.
Meng Wenyao pretended to be unprepared, drank the cup of tea, and took an Albizia Julibrissin pill while no one was paying attention.
