Chapter 72 Exposed
As the father-in-law passed the message, Princess Wanning came in from the outside, wearing a red dress, her long hair tied up, and a jade pendant hanging around her waist. She looked somewhat dashing and handsome.
But the not too much sassiness disappeared completely under her round face, and her deer eyes looked innocent.
Princess Wanning is not bad looking, and she is not as heartless as the rumors say. Of course, she just doesn’t look like a heart. Who knows what this person is like?
Everyone’s eyes were on Princess Wanning. They watched her walk to the center of the palace, salute the Queen and say: "Wanning pays homage to the Queen, may the Queen be blessed."
The queen sitting in the upper seat had a gentle smile on her face. She raised her hand to signal Wan Ning to get up. Seeing this, Wan Ning turned around and walked to the seat vacated for her, and sat down without any hesitation.
Cui Xiu looked at Princess Wanning's clean and neat movements, and couldn't help but have doubts in his heart. After staying in Hezhou for three years, why has this person's temperament changed so much? Princess Wanning, who knew how to be petty, seemed to disappear all of a sudden.
Cui Xiu still remembers that even after she became the Queen Mother in her last life, Princess Wanning was never the same as she is today. She still had the same arrogant and domineering temperament and never regarded human life as human life.
Whether she treats ordinary people or dignitaries, as long as she doesn't like them, she will kill them like crushing an ant.
In Princess Wanning's eyes, it seemed that no one else's life in this world was important, except for the emperor, herself, her mother, and now the Queen Mother.
Cui Xiu doesn't think Princess Wanning has really changed. Although it seems that she is indeed different from before, she cannot rule out that this is a deliberate disguise made by Wanning in order to return to Beijing.
If she is still like before, then the emperor will definitely not let her come back. Although she lived a magical life in Hezhou, no matter how good Hezhou is, it is still not as good as the capital, and it is not as good as the capital in every aspect.
Princess Wanning was born in Kyoto and grew up in Kyoto. She will still return to Kyoto in the future.
"It's been three years now, Wanning, you have lost weight." The Empress greeted Princess Wanning.
When Princess Wanning heard the Queen’s words, she said with a smile on her face, “Yes, time flies so fast.”
"I was still young at that time, but now that I have grown up, it is natural to draw a strip."
As Princess Wanning said, her eyes turned to Cui Xiu's direction intentionally, and said with a smile: "Three years No, there are quite a few more nephews.”
“The queen is really lucky.”
“It has also spread the branches of our Li family.”
Princess Wanning’s words spoke to the Queen’s heart, but not from happiness, but from sadness. Although her child is now classified as the prince of the East Palace, the origins of other princes are not a threat. .
Everyone was eyeing the position of the East Palace with eager eyes, wishing that her son would make a mistake and be deposed.
“There are more children, and the popularity of the harem is also strong. The Queen Mother is happy to see her.”
“Xiaowu and Xiaoliu are both here today, and it just so happens that you, my aunt, are here too. "Look at the children."
The Empress followed Princess Wan Ning's words and asked her to go and see the fifth and sixth princes. Wan Ning turned her eyes to the children as she listened to the Empress' words. direction.
Cui Xiu felt the gaze from Li Qingrong just now, and she felt calm in her heart. Even if she looked directly at Princess Wanning, there was no psychological pressure.
But she was still worried about the marriage, so she didn't pay much attention to what Princess Wanning said.
Princess Wanning stood up and said at the same time: "You, bring the child over." She said this to Qiu Feng.
Qiu Feng stood beside Cui Xiu. When she heard Princess Wanning's words, her expression paused and her feet had not yet moved.
Hearing the sound, Cui Xiu motioned to Qiu Feng to carry the child over. With so many people watching now, even if Princess Wanning wanted to do something, she would not choose this time to do it.
Princess Wanning paused when she saw Qiu Feng's movements, and then she said, "What? Is Concubine Jia afraid that this princess will do harm to the child?"
As Wan Ning said this, she pointed her finger directly at Cui Xiu. It was obvious that she was well prepared. Or to put it in a more direct way, she came to Cui Xiu.
From the moment he walked in until now, Wan Ning’s eyes have not been taken away from Cui Xiu. He is either looking at Cui Xiu or Cui Xiu’s children. What does this look like? It's written on his face.
“Princess Wanning misunderstood.”
“It’s just that the child is still young and will make a fuss when he wakes up.”
The fifth prince has always been in a state of sleep. If the autumn wind moves, he may wake up the child. This fifth prince loves to make noises and cries when he wakes up.
No matter what I say, I can’t stop it.
When Wan Ning heard Cui Xiu's words, her eyebrows subconsciously twisted and she said, "What are you afraid of making trouble?"
"Bring it over and show it to this princess."< br>
As soon as Princess Wanning said this, everyone's eyes tended to be divided into two groups, one group looked at Princess Wanning, and the other group looked at Cui Xiu.
Seeing that neither party had any intention of giving in, the Queen saw this and acted as a peacemaker and said: "Okay, Concubine Jia."
"Qiu Feng, show the child to Wan Ning. "
"Wan Ning is the fifth prince's biological daughter. It's okay to see that the child is fine. "
The Queen has spoken, and Qiu Feng cannot refute the Queen's words even if she doesn't want to. After giving the order, he carried the fifth prince to Princess Wanning.
When Princess Wanning saw the fifth prince and saw that the little guy was still asleep, she wanted to raise her hand to poke the little guy's cheek, but her fingers had not yet touched the fifth prince's. Small face.
The fifth prince opened his eyes, opened his mouth in a daze, and bit the finger extended by Princess Wanning without thinking.
Children don’t have teeth yet, so even if they bite someone, it won’t hurt.
But Princess Wanning's expression suddenly changed, and she shouted in a fuss: "Let go of my fingers!"
Cui Xiu heard the sound, stood up and saw the fifth prince. Holding Princess Wanning's finger in her mouth, she frowned subconsciously, wondering what was going on.
Although the fifth prince still couldn't understand human speech, his face turned ugly because of Princess Wanning's exclamation. He let go of Princess Wanning's fingers and began to cry with his throat hanging.
The fifth prince's cries resounded throughout the queen's palace, and the noise made his head hurt.
“There is something wrong with this child!”
“There is something wrong with this child!”
“There is something wrong with this child!”
Princess Wanning directly He opened his mouth and repeated the words that the child had a problem three times, as if he knew something in advance, and the calm and cheerful attitude just now disappeared.
It was as if he had been "bitten" back to his original form by the Fifth Prince.
Everyone who heard the words of Princess Wanning had something wrong on their faces. Why is there something wrong with this child?
