Chapter 349: The Concubine is anxious
As soon as Qian Delai finished speaking, Zhuanpin suddenly raised her head.
She turned around and looked at Xiao Heng expectantly.
Xiao Heng was not blind, so he naturally saw Zhuanpin turning around and looking at him.
Xiao Heng snorted in his heart, but pretended to be embarrassed: "I think, forget it... I don't want to let Zhuanpin do such an embarrassing thing! Zhuanpin is my concubine, so I'd better work harder to sell some calligraphy and paintings, and then let Zhuanpin take the money to coax Zhuzhu!"
All the civil and military officials in the court lowered their heads, and in their hearts they despised the emperor's words.
When has the emperor ever sold calligraphy and paintings? It really sounds better than singing.
The emperor just sits in the palace, and the little princess can send the silver to him in the national treasury and private treasury, okay?
I wonder if the emperor blushes when he says this?
Some officials who had daughters at home made up their minds silently and told their daughters about it when they returned home.
Men can't just be judged by their looks. If you meet a husband like the emperor, you will be sold by him and help him count the money!
Zhuanpin was filled with anxiety. Wasn't it just a matter of writing a letter to ask her father for money?
She didn't feel embarrassed! Weren't these ministers still babbling just now?
Why aren't you talking now?
Please persuade your emperor. As long as she can get money from her father, she is willing to buy ten... no! Twenty eight-treasure sauce ducks for that little bitch!
But to Zhuanpin's disappointment, no minister spoke for a long time.
Zhuanpin raised her hand high and spoke in an urgent voice: "Your Majesty, I have realized my mistake and am willing to write a letter to my motherland and ask someone to send money over!"
The corners of Xiao Heng's lips curled up slightly, and his peach blossom eyes were full of affection as he looked at Zhuanpin.
"My beloved, are you really willing? If you don't want to, no one can force you~"
Zhuanpin's mind was now filled with money, and she nodded quickly.
"I am the little princess's stepmother, so I naturally have to make her happy. Your Majesty, when will you write it?"
Zhuanpin wished she could write it now so that the letter could be sent to Beichen immediately.
Xiao Heng nodded in satisfaction: "No hurry, go back to Changqiu Palace and wait for me first, I'm sorry for putting you through this these days! I'll ask Xiao Dezi to find two people to serve you!"
Zhuanpin was delighted and bowed quickly to express her gratitude.
From now on, you don’t have to drink raw water anymore, and you don’t have to do the rough work of boiling water yourself!
She held her head high and chest puffed out, walking out of the throne room like a victorious rooster.
After Concubine Zhuan left, Xiao Heng discussed state affairs with the ministers.
By the time the court was dismissed, it was almost noon.
Naitian and the Sixth Prince sat on the steps at the door, staring outside eagerly.
Normally, the emperor leaves court very early...Why hasn't he come back yet at noon today?
As Naituan was thinking this, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Then he stood up suddenly and ran towards the tall figure.
"Father~Why did you come back just now? Zhuzhu and Sixth Brother have been waiting for a long time~" There was a hint of complaint in the soft and baby voice.
Xiao Heng held the two little babies in his arms lovingly.
Xiao Dezi, who was following behind him, said hurriedly: "In reply to the little princess, the emperor is seeking justice for the little princess~"
There was some doubt in the big eyes of the milk ball: "Father, are you seeking justice for Zhuzhu? Who should you ask for justice from?"
Transfer to a concubine? Did she find out her dowry was missing?
"Of course it's with Concubine Zhuan. Today, when the emperor was in court, Concubine Zhuan suddenly broke into the Golden Throne Hall and slandered you, the princess. You are the apple of his eye, and the emperor naturally didn't want to hear that..."
"Slander me? Why..."
Naituan blinked his big eyes and pretended to be innocent.
In fact, she had already guessed in her heart why Concubine Zhuan broke into the hall and made a noise.
After all, she had stolen someone else's lifeblood. If she lost the silver, she would probably make more trouble than Zhuan Concubine.
Xiao Heng glanced at the little girl with a smile.
"Why? Zhuzhu doesn't know?"
Milk ball smacked his lips, actually at this time, the father could be a little dumber...
She hugged her father's neck affectionately and whispered, "Father, shall we hold the first family meeting later?"
Anyway, she had no intention of keeping the things she got from Zhuanpin for herself.
She still had a lot of gold and endless things in her space, so she didn't look down on Zhuanpin's things.
I just looked down on Zhuanpin's arrogance and wanted to piss her off.
Xiao Heng nodded slightly, holding his little daughter and son in his arms and walked quickly into the villa.
Only Concubine Jin and Concubine Shu were sitting on the sofa in the hall.
Xiao Heng put the two breasts down, looked at the two people on the sofa and asked, "Where is the queen?"
Concubine Jin smiled and waved to the little princess: "Your Majesty, are you going to take care of palace affairs? Does the Emperor have anything else to do?"
Concubine Jin and Concubine Shu didn't even stand up from the sofa.
Naituan ran over, nestled in Concubine Jin's arms, looking at her father with a smile.
The concubine Shu, who was standing by, was concentrating on wiping Milk Ball's hands with a wet towel.
Xiao Heng choked, sighed softly, and turned to walk towards the kitchen.
Forget it. They are in a bad temper now, so it’s better not to provoke them.
Qing'er must have saved some breakfast for herself, so she just had a bite.
After Xiao Heng finished his breakfast, he asked Xiao Dezi to call everyone over.
The little girl said that she wanted to hold the first family meeting, and he was curious about what she wanted to say.
...
In the villa's meeting room, Xiao Heng sat in the main seat with Xiao Baozhu in his arms.
Jiang Wanqing, Concubine Jin and others lined up in order, while the Sixth Prince was held in Jiang Wanqing's arms.
Just when everyone was extremely confused, Naitian waved her little hand and placed all the things she got from Zhuanpin on the long table in front of her.
"Father, Emperor, Mother, this is Zhuzhu's spoils of war. The purpose of holding a family meeting today is to divide the spoils... er... divide them!"
Xiao Heng's eyelids jumped and he looked at the pile of jewelry, jade, antiques, calligraphy and paintings on the table.
Jiang Wanqing and others knew about Zhuanpin's lost dowry early on, so what was there that they didn't understand when they saw the things on the table?
Feeling the unfriendly gazes from his wives and concubines, Xiao Heng unconsciously touched the tip of his nose.
Oh my God, don't look at him like that!
He swore to God that he had never taught his little girl to sneak into the house in the middle of the night!
Naituan pointed at the things on the table with a proud look on his face: "Mother, quickly give some to the other concubines, and the other brothers will also have some~"
Jiang Wanqing first rolled her eyes at Xiao Heng, then smiled and nodded at her little girl.
"Don't worry, Zhuzhu. Mother will divide these things up in a moment! But, Zhuzhu, please don't do such things in the future!"
My daughter is still young and may not understand the consequences of doing this.
What if he becomes addicted to stealing in the future?
Naituan nodded obediently: "Mother, Zhuzhu knows~ This can barely be regarded as compensation for Zhuzhu's mental damage. Zhuanpin really wants to scratch Zhuzhu's face~"
She only took these things, which was already considered a cheap transfer to a concubine.
Eh? By the way, didn’t Xiao Dezi just say that his father asked for justice for him?
