The Adventures of the Crying Princess
Chapter 172: Picking up, disappointing brother 3
Seeing Bai Yimeng, who seemed to understand but not quite. Emperor Chengde felt very tired. As the emperor, he had to talk to a monkey about the fight between women. "I hope you can understand some strategies, but I don't want you to become a sinister villain."
"Wait a minute, go and pay your respects to the Queen Mother. The pair of red jade ruyi you gave her last time was very much liked by the Queen Mother. By the way, is that little toy you gave me a blood jade ganoderma?"
"Your Majesty is wise and can tell at a glance. Yes, it is the blood jade Ganoderma lucidum. That thing is very difficult to carve. In order to carve a beautiful shape, several pieces were wasted. It's really embarrassing." Bai Yimeng smiled and raised his head, "Does your Majesty like it?"
After hearing the first half of the sentence, Emperor Chengde was quite happy that the monkey was not loved in vain. But when he heard the second half of the sentence, he felt something was wrong.
How come he heard that this thing was priceless and could not be bought with money? But in this girl's mouth, how come it was as easy as cabbage?
Emperor Chengde asked tentatively, "Well, I heard that this thing is rare and only comes once in a century. Where did you get so much?"
"I went to Black Wind Valley, there are many places there. If your majesty likes it, I will bring you a cart next time. But you can keep it secretly and don't tell others to ask."
……
Ci'an Palace
When the old queen mother learned that Bai Yimeng had entered the palace, she changed her clothes and also replaced the incense with one with the scent of fruit wood.
The old queen had heard about Bai Yimeng's fight early on, and she complained angrily, "She didn't remember what I taught her. Why is she so rough when encountering problems? If the girl from the Lu family was smart, she would not get any good results. How could she take the initiative to hand over the handle to others? Foolish, really foolish."
"The little princess has a kind nature. The Queen Mother will teach her slowly." Aunt Cui handed the Queen Mother a bowl of tea.
"Is this pure and kind? It's just stupid. A person can be innocent, but he must know how to protect himself. When she comes, I will definitely give her a good scolding."
Just as he finished speaking, the voice of the young eunuch came from outside the door, "Empress Dowager, Princess Sui'an wants to see you."
"Please!"
Bai Yimeng entered the hall and knelt down to pay her respects, "Your servant, I pay my respects to the Queen Mother."
"Alright, get up and sit over there." The Queen Mother stepped forward to help Bai Yimeng up and pulled him to sit next to her. "Oh, you've become thinner and darker, but at least you've grown taller. Are you feeling better now?"
"Thank you, Queen Mother, for your concern. I am now fine."
"Good, that's good. His Majesty also said that you and the third brother are not young anymore, and you should have been married a long time ago, but it was delayed in the past few years. Fortunately, you are back, it is really God's blessing. Every time I recite the sutras, I will thank God for letting you come back."
The Queen Mother continued to hold Bai Yimeng's hand and said, "I like the jade ruyi you gave me very much.
Aunt Cui often praises you for being thoughtful. She knows that I am old and have trouble sleeping, so she made such a treasure. It is really a great help. Since putting it on the bedside, I don’t know how much better my sleep has been. Tell me how you put the herbs in it. "
"Your Majesty, this is not difficult. There is a medicinal spring in Wan'an Valley. All you need to do is throw the carved jade into it and inject your inner strength into it. Then, let the herbs in the spring combine with the jade and you'll be done."
"Oh, my dear, you are already injured, and you are wasting your internal energy doing this. It is really difficult for you."
The Queen Mother kept calling him "baby" and "good boy". Bai Yimeng almost thought that the Queen Mother had been bewitched. She remembered that before she left, the Queen Mother didn't have this attitude.
She asked tentatively, "Empress Dowager, have you been feeling unwell recently? Would you like me to take your pulse?"
"Okay, my stomach has been feeling bad lately, and I've been going to the bathroom a lot. The imperial physician examined me and prescribed some medicine, but it seems to have no effect."
After checking the patient's pulse, Bai Yimeng asked about his diet and concluded that his stomach was cold. Solution: Cover him with a blanket.
After chatting for a while, the old queen finally got back to the point, "I heard that you had a fight with someone? Did you win or lose?"
Knowing the result in her heart, she just waited for Bai Yimeng to tell her. The Queen Mother took a sip of tea and pretended to be calm.
She knew that the child was opinionated and it would not be easy to teach him.
"Your Majesty, you must know the answer. Go ahead and scold me." Bai Yimeng instantly wilted like an eggplant hit by frost.
The Queen Mother sighed and used the lid of the teacup to gently stir the tea leaves. "Fortunately, the girl from the Lu family is also a fool. If it were me when I was young, I would have made sure you would be in big trouble. Don't sit there, go kneel over there, kneel down and listen, and remember it carefully."
"Yes!" Bai Yimeng knelt down with his head down.
"You are usually naughty and playful, and you are quite smart, but why do you become a fool at the critical moment?
When someone scolds you, you smear something on their face. Isn't that childish? When I was three years old, I didn't play like that. Kneel straight, what's wrong with you being crooked? "
Although the Queen Mother was very fierce, Bai Yimeng felt relieved. It seemed that the Queen Mother was not bewitched. After being scolded for more than an hour, Bai Yimeng was allowed to leave. He went to see the Queen again and talked about some family matters before leaving the palace.
As soon as they left the palace gate, they saw the carriage of the general's mansion parked at the gate. Bai Yisong said a few words to the palace gate guard, and then pulled Bai Yimeng into the carriage, "Big hero, get in the car. You are really good, and you have learned how to fight."
"Brother knows?"
"What do you think?" Bai Yisong also got on the carriage, "Don't be afraid, Big Brother will give Lu a lesson for failing to supervise properly.
I also beat up the leader, Li Er from the patrol battalion, for the crime of gang fighting. I guess I vented my anger for you."
"Did my brother ask you to pick me up?" Bai Yimeng always felt uneasy.
"No, I heard from Su Beichen that you were going to the palace. I was worried that His Majesty would punish you and that you would have difficulty moving, so I came to pick you up. Third brother is so thoughtful." Bai Yisong smiled and bumped Bai Yimeng's shoulder.
"Hehe, I'm sorry to disappoint you, Third Brother. His Majesty didn't hit me, and neither did the Queen Mother or the Empress."
"It's okay, don't be disappointed, I'll make it up to you when I get home." Bai Yisong took out a flare from his arms, "Here, next time someone bullies you, remember to set off the flare.
Your parents gave you three brothers, not for you to be bullied by others. Also, can't you take Jinying with you when you go out? It would be good to have a helper in a fight."
"I can handle outsiders, so you don't have to worry, Third Brother. If Big Brother wants to beat me up in the future, Third Brother, just think about asking for mercy on my behalf."
"You actually think I can help you?" Bai Yisong looked at his sister like a fool.
Bai Yimeng looked at Bai Yisong, shook his head, and suddenly felt desperate. "Oh, forget it, this is my fate."
Bai Yimeng rubbed her knees. She had been kneeling in Ci'an Palace for almost an hour. She didn't know why the empress dowager was so talkative. If she hadn't practiced martial arts since she was a child, she would have been unable to bear it long ago.
"What's wrong with your knee? Lift it up for Brother San to see." Bai Yisong said as he rolled up Bai Yimeng's trouser legs, revealing a patch of blue and red. "Didn't you say you weren't beaten?"
"I don't want to talk about this." Bai Yimeng pushed his third brother away and hid in the corner with his knees hugged.
Bai Yisong stopped the carriage and ran down, bought a bag of candied fruits and threw them into the carriage. After getting in, he stuffed a candied fruit figurine into Bai Yimeng's hand and said, "The candied haws seller has left. You can make do with what you have. I'll buy you some tomorrow."
"I wasn't beaten, don't worry. The Queen Mother was just explaining things to me for a long time. It's really okay." Bai Yimeng looked outside the carriage and felt very annoyed.
Suddenly, the carriage shook, and roars and wailing were heard from the market. The driver was Bai Yinan's deputy general Ye Yuan, "Third General, Little Princess, be careful, there is an assassin. It looks like he is an accomplice of those people last night."
"From Luosha Sect?" Bai Yisong pulled his sister back and said, "You are in good health now, don't try to be stubborn. I have my third brother here, so you don't need to interfere."
"Bai Yimeng smiled and said, it's okay, Third Brother, don't panic. I won't go out. Some kind-hearted people will rescue us." Bai Yimeng opened the car window and whistled a few times.
Soon, a group of blue-robed swordsmen appeared. In the time it took to drink a cup of tea, they wiped out all the people from the Rakshasa Sect.
This group of people only cared about killing, not burying. The blue-clothed swordsman took the lead and whistled a few times at the carriage, then turned around and left.
"Little sister, do you know him? I think he's very good at martial arts." Bai Yisong looked around as if he was looking for the group of people.
"Don't ask, I can't talk about this." Bai Yimeng said and smiled.
Emperor Chengde told her that the Dragon Roar Guards could not be seen by others, so everyone had to wear a mask. Bai Yimeng thought it might not be necessary at the time, but now it seems that she really needs to prepare one.
