Chapter 532: Can't Afford to Offend, Can't Afford
de a decision, he would never go back on it.Moreover, he was the emperor. He worried every day about the empty national treasury, while those aristocratic families lived in extravagance and pleasure,...The emperor didn't think much, and lowered his head to ask Jia Yin, "Fu Niuer, how many days are you going to stay and play The emperor's home is very big, Fu Niuer must like it."
Jia Yin's heart pounded like a drum. Although she didn't know why, she felt that the Empress harbored ill intentions towards her.
It's difficult to refuse outright, since the Emperor clearly has good intentions.
She was anxious, and with a blushing face, she replied: "Uncle Huang, Fu Niuer also wants to play with the princess sister, but Fu Niuer doesn't go home at night, grandmother will worry. Can Fu Niuer play with the princess sister for a while, and then go home in the afternoon"
"Of course, you can," the Emperor liked plump maidservants who were filial, and also knew that Old Madam Li cherished this maid dearly, so he said, "The flowers in the Imperial Garden are in full bloom. You and the Third Princess go play there, and I'll have someone send you back in the afternoon."
Having said that, he turned to Li Lao Er and the village head, “You don’t need to worry, Fu Niuer won't be wronged in the palace.”
"Your Majesty is too kind," Li Lao Er said with a smile, though his heart was filled with reluctance. "Funiu'er has been spoiled by our family. If she's naughty, please bear with her, Your Majesty."
"Understood, you may go." The Emperor waved his hand. Li Lao Er and the village head kowtowed once more and then retreated.
The Empress was preparing a reward for the Li family and, with a smile, said a few words before leaving to attend to other matters.
Leaving behind a sweet melody, the Three Princess accompanied by a retinue of little eunuchs and maidservants went to the Imperial Garden.
What is called a garden, is nothing but a slightly larger garden.
If it were the Imperial Garden of Kyoto Palace originally, there would be something to see. But here in Shin-to, this is just a palace built from an old residence, and the imperial garden is only a dozen or so acres in size.
The varieties of flowers aren't particularly numerous or expensive.
Jia Yin followed the cold-faced Third Princess, walking and admiring the flowers along the way. She originally wanted to find an opportunity to smuggle some good varieties into her space.
It's a pity, the more I look, the more disappointed I become.
She was racking her brains, trying to find an excuse to leave the palace as soon as possible.
Suddenly, the Third Princess in front stopped short, almost running into her.
The Third Princess hugged her shoulders, drove the eunuchs and maidservants aside, then pointed at Jia Yin and shouted: “Kneel down for this princess!”
Jia Yin was stunned, unable to understand what this little girl meant.
Aren't we going to play with her
Could playing just be about kneeling all the time
She glanced at the eunuchs and maidservants. Though they had stepped back four or five paces, their ears were pricked, and their eyes darted towards her, undoubtedly catching every word she spoke.
She thought for a moment, then put on an innocent and naive expression and asked, "Princess sister, aren't you going to play with me Why do I have to kneel down My mother said kneeling is apologizing. What did I do wrong Did I make the princess angry"
The third princess wasn't very old, and she was a little taken aback by Jia Yin's question.
After all, in her usual days, she just needed to say the word "kneel," and the palace maids and eunuchs would immediately obey.
She saw Jiayin tilt her head and look at her, refusing to kneel. This made her rather annoyed, so she mumbled an excuse and shouted, "Who let you wear the same dress as this princess!"
Jia Yin glanced at her skirt and was speechless.
The third princess wore a skirt made of snow silk, while she wore a moon white flower bud skirt.
This flower bud skirt was sewn by the embroiderer from Hou Mansion according to her rough sketch. It can be said that she is the first person in all of Tianwu to wear it, how could it be the same as the princess!
Needless to say, the Third Princess just dislikes her and is deliberately picking on her.
She endured, and endured again. Honestly, she had absolutely no fondness for this ordinary-looking princess at all.
When people are beautiful, being a little willful can be called charming.
You're holding up a face flat like a steamed bun, with two dead fish eyes staring out. You're trying to scare people.
Who gave you the courage to be so bold!
The eunuchs and maids on one side also seemed to think the princess was being unreasonable, but they were servants and hesitated whether or not to try and persuade her.
Unfortunately, the idea was just an idea and no one ever put it into action.
Jia Yin couldn't wait for outsiders to intervene, she could only take action herself.
She "plaintively" clutched at her collar, and asked pitifully, "Princess, can't other people wear the same dress as you"
"Of course, I'm a princess! What are you, daring to steal my father... no, my skirt!" The Third Princess thought Jia Yin was scared, she proudly raised her chin and sneered, almost letting slip what she really meant.
But Jia Yin understood, it turned out this little princess was eating vinegar, jealous that she got along so well with the emperor uncle.
She really wanted to roll her eyes and kept muttering under her breath.
That's your own father. You act like a log, refusing to speak to him or get close to him, and then you blame others.
This is not typical, if you can't eat grapes, others can't either
But she just muttered a few curses in her heart. She couldn't possibly say that out loud.
This is Heavenly Martial, who embodies imperial supremacy. Her father is the emperor, and she is a princess!
Her neck hadn't stiffened to the point of being as uncompromising as a princess, let alone with her main supporter, her foster father, the Marquis, not at home!
If you can't fight it, then you can only avoid it!
So, she became even more aggrieved, her eyes welling up with tears, "Yes, Princess, I understand. I'll go home right now and change out of this dress."
After she finished speaking, she turned her head and was about to leave.
The princess hadn't finished speaking, how could you let her leave He instinctively reached out.
Jia Yin's scalp throbbed with pain. When she discovered that her braid had been pulled, she was truly angry.
Kids these days are the most annoying.
I shouldn't let her get away with this. Teaching her a lesson is the only way to make her stop picking on me like this!
And so, she strained forward with all her might. The princess instinctively tightened her grip in response.
No, Jia Yin suddenly tilted her head back and fell. The princess couldn't control her strength and also fell to the ground.
The eunuchs and maidservants were startled and quickly surged forward.
"Princess, how are you Where did you hurt yourself"
"Hurry, call the doctor!"
Jia Yin seemed to want to get up, but she couldn't stand steady and fell back onto the princess's leg.
A palace maid quickly pulled her up and pushed her aside.
The princess fell flat on her butt and tried to speak, but suddenly clutched her stomach and cried out, “Ouch! My stomach hurts!”
Both the palace maids and eunuchs were puzzled. Shouldn't they have a sore bottom How come it was their stomach that hurt
But in the blink of an eye, the princess was already writhing in pain on the ground, crying out in a sharp voice, "Help me, woo woo, my stomach hurts so much. Mother, Father! Help!"
The maids and eunuchs saw that the princess didn't seem to be faking it, and they were all terrified, becoming even more chaotic.
Jia Yin stood on the side, her face full of fear and surprise. In fact, with a flip of her sleeve, she retracted a silver needle into space...
When the Empress heard the commotion, she rushed over to find the Princess rolling on the ground like a piglet, her face smeared with snot and tears. She wasn't conventionally beautiful to begin with, but now she was truly an eyesore.
"What on earth is going on" The Empress' face was ashen with anger. She wanted to pick up the princess, but her hand reached out, then seemed to recoil in disgust, withdrawing again.
A nanny behind her rushed forward, embracing the princess and shielding her master's embarrassment.
The palace maids and eunuchs, frightened out of their wits, knelt down together, not daring to make a sound.
As for the third princess, even though her stomach hurt, she didn't forget to complain. She pointed at Jia Yin and shouted, "It's her, it's her who made my stomach hurt, woo woo, Mother, avenge me... My stomach hurts so much, woo woo, help, Mother, save me!"from the sky and helped a lot.He bowed to Mu Xu in greeting, then ordered someone to bring the clerk and the headman over.Zheng Sanjiang poured a bucket of cold water, "splash! splash!"
