Red Mansion Rebirth: Ghost Phoenix

Chapter 109 Intelligence

The prince hesitated for a moment, then said, "She is sick. I'd better go see her after dinner."

Qinghai agreed respectfully.

In my heart, however, my opinion of Wang Chenghui became even higher.

She has not made any trouble for three years, and she has been silent and motionless. It seems that there is no such person in the entire East Palace.

Only when checking the account books sent by the inner office at the end of each month can one see the expenses of Yi Qiu East Hall, which are not less than those of the main hall at all, and sometimes even more than that of the main hall.

And if we think seriously, the share of the East Palace should be the same as that of the West Palace, but it also has Princess Heke and Nanny Ji. Logically, it should have one more share than the Main Palace.

Therefore, the East Palace is actually saving money for the prince.

Moreover, the prince would ask for the detailed list of the East Palace every month. Every time he saw that most of the fabrics used for the young military commander's clothes and shoes were private property brought by Wang Chenghui from home, he would ponder for a long time.

After three years, Wang Chenghui's private warehouse had become a cloth shop and its money was almost used up.

Therefore, the only possibility is that Wang Chenghui would take advantage of the Chinese New Year, the only time he contacted his family, to buy cloth from outside by name.

This is why the Prince was most angry about the Crown Princess wanting to snatch He Ke back from Wang Xifeng at this moment.

She is a woman herself. Doesn’t she remember how she grew up?

What's more, Tao Ge'er makes clothes and shoes every season, and Ke is a girl, so she should have more, not less!

Looking at the cloth sent to the East Palace, it looked beautiful: Shu brocade, kesi silk, and embroidered satin - what five or six-year-old child who was rolling on the ground because of his mischief could wear these! ?

When the news came out from the East Palace, Wang Chenghui couldn't let go of the cloths, smiling happily: "When He Ke gets married in a few years, this will be her treasure!"

As the eldest daughter of the crown prince, she might be a princess of the dynasty when she gets married in a few years! Why would she need these outdated tricks?!

Besides, no matter how good the fabric is, it won’t last more than ten years!

The prince could only take a deep breath and swallow his anger.

Now is not the time...

After a busy afternoon, the prince went to Wu Liangyuan's courtyard to have dinner, and then took a walk to Yi Qiu Palace.

Wu Liangyuan tried her best to please the prince but failed.

The prince warned her with a smile: "You should also keep an eye on the door. They found out that the thief also visited your place last night."

Wu Liangyuan was so frightened that her face turned pale: "I am scared, Your Highness, please don't leave!"

"Don't be afraid. I'll have someone patrol. Just don't walk around." The prince smiled. "The back hall is full of women and children, so they are naturally timid. I have to go and take a look."

"Your Highness!" When Wu Liangyuan was about to act like a spoiled child, she saw Juanjuan winking at her, so she could only force a smile and said, "I will definitely listen to you and close the door tightly.

"Brother Tao and Sister Huo are young, so they must need Your Highness more than I do.

"Your Highness, please go and accompany them."

The prince smiled sincerely this time: "You are sensible."

Before leaving, he looked at the incense burner in her room and told Qinghai calmly, "This incense burner is old and looks ugly. Ask the inner workshop to send a new cloisonné copper incense burner that was just made the other day."

Wu Liangyuan forced a smile: "Thank you, Your Highness!"

After leaving Yichun Palace, the prince asked Qinghai with a gloomy face: "How come the Wu family is very rich? The Crown Princess's fumigation basket is made of copper, how can she use pure gold directly?!"

"Pure gold is too soft to be used to make a fumigation basket. I think it's made of gold covered in copper to make it brighter. Your Highness, please don't get angry over such a small matter." Qinghai hurriedly handed over the hand warmer.

The prince turned away with a cold face.

Not far to the east of Yichun Palace is Cheng'en Hall. The prince walked past the door with a cold expression, not even willing to look over.

Zhu Qing hid inside the door and saw everything clearly. She bit her lips hard, but knew that she must not show obvious resentment, so she lowered her head and quickly returned to the back hall.

At this moment, the Crown Princess had just finished dinner and was playing with Tao. Seeing that Zhu Qing looked unhappy, she smiled and said to Nanny Weng, "I heard from His Highness that we may have to find a teacher to teach our son.

"Mammy, you've worked so hard on this journey, and now there is finally a good result. It's also our good fate."

Nanny Weng raised her eyebrows and said, "What the Crown Princess said is true." She turned around and hugged Brother Tao, saying softly, "Brother is grown up now, it's time for him to go to school, and he probably doesn't need Nanny to accompany him anymore.

"From now on, listen carefully to your father and mother, follow your master's instruction, and study hard.

"When my brother grows up and becomes successful, I'll post a notice saying I want to see Madam. Madam will come to see my brother as soon as she sees the notice, okay?"

Without any preparation, they suddenly want to separate?!

This news was like a bolt from the blue to Tao Ge'er. He hugged Nanny Weng and burst into tears: "I don't want you to leave!"

The Crown Princess's mouth froze, and she hurriedly got off the kang and went to hug Tao Ge'er: "Not so fast! Don't cry first..."

"I won't! It's all your fault!" Tao Ge'er's eyes were blazing with fire. He pushed away the Crown Princess's hand and screamed at the top of his lungs, "That's what happened to my sister back then. She only played with me for half a month, and you sent her away!

"And Zitang! She raised me from childhood, and it was you who insisted on assigning her extra tasks, and ended up driving her away!

"Now Nanny has come here on the emperor's orders and has been taking care of me for almost three years. She has been attentive and always with me! You want to send her away again!

"Don't you want people to treat me well? You want to get rid of everyone who treats me well?!

"Are you my mother or not? Am I someone else's child that you stole?!"

Tao Ge'er spoke clearly and logically, and he even remembered everything that happened when he was one year old. He made a scene with the Crown Princess, rolling on the ground, crying and shouting!

As soon as Zhu Qing heard Tao Ge'er's first cry, she gave the little palace maid a look.

The maids understood, lowered their heads and went out, while the other opened the window a crack. The crying in the room was immediately heard outside!

Looking at the Crown Princess again, she was so upset by these words!

He was so angry that his whole body was shaking. When he saw Zhu Qing, he started to curse: "How could a little four-year-old kid like him know such nonsense?

“Tell me, was it you, a slut, who taught me this?

"I saw that you were a servant of my family, and I thought you were very good at serving, so I promoted you to do the delicate work and look after the prince's only child!

"How could you be so ignorant that you taught me such nonsense? You are disobedient and disobedient..."

Suddenly a voice sounded, cold and desolate: "Crown Princess, please be careful with your words."

Suddenly, the room fell silent.

The prince came in, took off his cloak and hat, walked up to Tao Ge'er, and smiled gently: "Tao Ge'er, daddy will hold you."

Tao Ge'er threw himself into the prince's arms and burst into tears aggrievedly: "Mother wants to drive Nanny Weng away! Daddy, if I don't study and don't get enlightenment, will Nanny Weng not leave?"

"Nonsense!" The prince scolded, sitting on the kang, holding the child on his knees, and said with a smile, "You just said it yourself, Mammy is here to look after you by the emperor's order.

"Let alone the words of the outsiders, even my father would not dare to let Madam leave the East Palace and leave you without the emperor's order.

"Well, Daddy will give you another reassurance.

"From now on, unless your Royal Grandfather or Royal Grandmother needs Nanny Weng to return to the palace to serve, Daddy promises you that Nanny Weng's stay or departure will be decided by the two of you two.

"No matter who it is, even Daddy, you are not allowed to interfere, okay?"

Tao Ge'er stopped crying and looked at the prince with tears in his eyes: "Really? Daddy is not lying to me?"

"When has Dad ever lied to you?" the prince laughed.

Tao Ge'er opened his mouth, looked at the Crown Princess whose face turned red and white, and who covered her eyes with a handkerchief and cried, and the words turned around on the tip of his tongue, and changed to another sentence:

"Words are not enough, Daddy needs to give me a written proof!"

The prince hugged his son and laughed: "My eldest son is really smart!"
