Chapter 673: The Unreliable Pig's Hoof!

is better and then we can talk” 。Remember, for consecutive half a month, daily acupuncture for half an hour, best at the time when yang qi rises in the morning. 。"I'll go prepare the medicine first!"...Although the Emperor found it strange that his daughter was so well-behaved, she was his own flesh and blood, how could he not be pleased that she had such filial piety.

So, he not only ate a few bites of the birthday cake, but also tried on the shoes, even though they weren't very well-fitting, he still praised them for a few words.

The third princess was flushed with joy, her happiness evident.

The Emperor then said, “It’s so thoughtful of you to prepare such a grand birthday gift. There were quite a few pearls sent from the south recently. I’ll have Yi the steward pack a box for you later. Take it back and play with it.”

"Thank you, Father!" Princess Three quickly expressed her gratitude, but after a moment's thought, she hesitantly said, "Father, can I exchange this gift for something else"

"Well, don't you want pearls"

The Emperor didn't take it seriously, thinking his daughter wanted jewels or silks.

To everyone's surprise, the Third Princess spoke up, "Father, I know about the bakery that Lady Kang Le owns. It belongs to you half and half. Would it be alright if you gave this reward to your daughter"

The Emperor frowned, about to refuse, but the Third Princess interrupted, red-eyed and pleading, “Father, previously your daughter was ignorant and arrogant, causing you disappointment.

"

"My daughter has reflected many times recently and feels that there is reason for Father to favor the Princess. My daughter also wants to use this opportunity to learn from the Princess by working together in the shop."

"The daughter also wants to please her father and wants to bake a delicious cake for him!"

After saying that, she wiped away her tears and hung her head, looking dejected. “Father is the ruler of a country, and I don’t want to be thought foolish by others and bring shame upon Father…”

"Nonsense! You are a princess, who dares to call you foolish!" The Emperor couldn't bear to see his daughter like this, and was about to speak up, but Easy, the chief steward, "accidentally" knocked over his teacup.

The teacup fell to the ground, though it didn't shatter, it rolled around a few times in the quiet hall, making a loud and jarring noise.

Grand Manager Yi immediately knelt down and kowtowed to plead guilty. The Emperor waved his hand, showing no blame, but the words he intended to say to the Third Princess were changed.

"Do not belittle yourself. Go back and rest first. I will consider this matter further before saying anything."

The third princess glared fiercely at Yi, the steward, wishing she could eat him alive.

Ming Ming was so close to success, but this old geezer just had to show up and ruin everything!

She still wanted to continue flirting, but unfortunately, the Emperor had already seen her glance.

The emperor's heart was like a mirror.

His daughter still hadn't changed her temperament, so he spoke again: "Go down."

The third princess was unable to, and could only reluctantly step out.

The Emperor rubbed his temples, and upon seeing Yi, the chief steward, present him with fresh tea, he took a sip and asked, "Tell me, what was the matter that you stopped me just now"

Yi Zongtang quickly knelt down and whispered to the county princess what Princess Shou Kanggong had said first. He even repeated every word of the princess, not a single character omitted.

The emperor slammed his teacup down in anger and said, "This fool! I thought she had truly changed, but I never expected that such outrageous words could come out of her mouth!"

Even Yi Zongtong couldn't help but grumble in his heart, the third princess was truly hopeless.

Even if you want to curse the county princess, you have to think about it first, right!

What kind of flirtation, seduction That's to say a woman has ambiguous feelings towards a man.

But the county princess is only a child! If this gets out, no one will talk about how wonderful the county princess is. Instead, they'll say that the Emperor is infatuated and lusting after a child...

How will the Emperor see the County Princess in the future

Besides, the Marquis treats the county princess like his own daughter. How could he possibly look upon the Emperor favorably

But he thought better of it, for if he had spoken those words, there would be no living to regret them.

So, he changed his story and advised: "Your Majesty, don't be angry. The princess is still young, we can teach her slowly."

However, the princess has always disliked the county lord. If the emperor really lets her run the shop with the county lord...

"It's likely that the two young ladies will argue every day, and then the emperor will have to settle disputes daily. Siding with either one would be wrong."

As expected, the Emperor's headache intensified upon hearing this, "Thank goodness you reminded me, otherwise, there wouldn't be a single peaceful day."

Yi Zong hurried forward, helping the Emperor press his head, and chuckled, "Your Majesty, the Third Princess has always been interested in this shop run by the County Lady. If you truly don't let her try it out, she might develop a grudge against it."

“The servant sees that although the Miss is young, she is intelligent and perceptive. Perhaps Your Majesty has some free time these days to summon the Miss for a few questions”

Perhaps the County Princess would be willing to do business with the princess together, or perhaps the County Princess is unwilling, but there are other ways that are mutually beneficial.

The Emperor recalled the little girl's mischievous and clever nature, and laughed.

"You're right, please remind me when I have some free time these days."

"Yes, Your Majesty," Yi, the head steward, replied respectfully.

As night gradually fell, a heavy silence enveloped the world.

In the courtyard of Li's house at Suijin Beach, half the door of the main hall was open for ventilation. On the hearth inside, sweet potatoes and a handful of chestnuts were roasting.

Li Laotai, Tao Hongying, Li Laoer, Mr. Wen and his wife, Jiahuan, and Wenjuan were all listening to Jiayin talk about the palace affairs.

Li Lao Tai's awl was digging harshly into the shoe sole, as if it were poking at the Chang Princess's face.

Upon hearing those few sentences from her granddaughter, she couldn't help but burst into laughter and praise her granddaughter.

"Yes, that's how you should scold her, shameless thing! She even bullies children, how could she possibly have the decency to live Why doesn't she just find a block of tofu to bump into and die!"

Mrs. Wen also chimed in, “I heard before that this princess was very kind and low-key, never putting on airs. I thought she was a good person, but it seems rumors can’t be trusted!”

Tao Hongying let out a cold snort. "Wealth moves people's hearts. Before this, there was no connection between them, of course she'd be willing to put on an act and gain a good reputation.

Now that her Jiu Lian Zhai had been robbed of its business by Fu Nu'er's shop, and with less silver coming in, she was getting anxious and her true nature was showing.

Wénjuān felt sorry for her younger sister-in-law and rarely spoke up, "As for that Empress Dowager, she is of high status and not young. How could she instigate others to bully Fú Niūr"

Li Laotai immediately waved her hand, signaling to the granddaughter-in-law not to say more. In the end, she admonished: "Some things, just knowing in your heart is enough."

"I see that in this palace, besides the emperor, everyone else is not on our level. In the future, our family should stay far away and avoid interacting with them as much as possible."

Everyone nodded.

While other families might hope to enter the palace and vie for imperial favor, the Li family genuinely wished that people in the palace would forget about them entirely.

Compared to wealth and honor, they prefer a quiet and peaceful life.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned.

Before three days had passed since the birthday banquet, messengers arrived at the palace to deliver good news.

Not to mention the Li family, even Jia Yin was a little confused and couldn't guess what the Emperor had summoned her for.

But even unwilling, Jiayin couldn't defy the imperial decree...

Thus, she simply tidied up, changed her clothes, brought along Grandmother He and Shui Ling, and went into the palace.

Today, the Emperor surprisingly finished reviewing the memorials early and didn't think to summon Jia Yin into the palace.

I was planning to go to the garden to admire the plum blossoms and perhaps meet a beautiful woman.

As a result, the third princess came back again, pestering, acting cute, apologizing, and promising...

He was extremely annoyed, so he asked Yi the steward to bring Jiayin over.

Jiayin sat opposite the emperor, across a large writing desk, holding a bowl of hot tea in her arms, her big eyes wide with surprise.

Actually, I've been cursing him out in my heart for a while now. As expected, emperors are all big pigs! Completely unreliable!
