Is the prince infertile?The lady was so happy!

Chapter 494 The Dowry
"The servant is old and can't manage the princess's princess mansion."

Aunt Cui shook her head, squatted down slowly, and struggled to drag out a large rosewood box from the bedside.

Yingning hurried forward to help: "It's quite heavy, Aunt Cui, please hold still, I'll call someone to help you. Where are you going to move?"

Aunt Cui didn't speak, she kept bowing her waist and dragging the box out completely before letting go, holding her waist to pant for breath.

After she recovered her breath, she pointed to the box and said, "This box is left to the princess by the empress."

"My aunt gave it to me? When?" Yingning was surprised.

"It's been many years." Aunt Cui looked up and thought for a moment, then smiled, "Yes, since the princess was born not long ago, when the empress took you to the palace to raise you, she prepared this box, saying that the mother should Saving a dowry for my daughter."

Ying Ning was slightly taken aback.

Aunt Cui had a reminiscing look on her face: "Princess, I don't know. You were weak when you were young, and you fell ill every now and then. Sometimes you suddenly developed a high fever in the middle of the night, burning all over your body, and the empress cried out in distress. Every time the princess recovered from her illness, the empress herself And fell ill."

Ying Ning touched the smooth and moist box, and said softly: "Auntie is so stupid, she saved so much after so many years. Did she forget it later?"

Aunt Cui pursed her lips and said with a smile: "If the ordinary dowry outside is worth saving for your mother? My mother said that she doesn't look down on ordinary things, and she is not worthy of a princess as a dowry."

She took out a key, handed it to Ying Ning, and said: "My mother is gone, so I can't save this dowry. Let it be handed over to the princess. My mother will never see the day when the princess gets married, alas."

Yingning held the key.

"The slave has retired."

"Aunt Cui, don't look elsewhere, just follow me to the Jade Palace." Yingning held her back, "You are the person next to my aunt. Although my aunt has been kind to people these years, it is hard to keep someone who is vicious and jealous. If you have been bullied, I am sorry for my aunt."

"The slaves are so old, no one pays attention to me."

"Aunt Cui, don't be stubborn with me. Would you rather serve others than follow the daughter of the imperial concubine Shu?"

These words immediately touched Aunt Cui.

Her eyes were red, and she forced a smile and said: "Why would the servant not want to. When the princess was a child, the servant was also raised by the servant... It's just that the servant is old and afraid of dragging the princess down."

"What are you talking about? Could it be that when my aunt was here, she also disliked you for being too old? What's more, you are not very old, you are still very young."

Ying Ning took her arm, "Auntie, go to Yufu Palace to rest first, and I will make arrangements for you when I go back."

"It's deserted here, so it's better for the servants to accompany the princess here."

"I want to sit alone for a while and accompany my aunt." Yingning said.

Aunt Cui sighed: "Princess, don't be too sad. Look at you, you have lost a lot of weight in the past few days... If the empress knows, I don't know how distressed I am."

Yingning was silent for a while, then suddenly asked: "Auntie, today is my aunt's first seven days, will my aunt come back?"

Aunt Cui shook her head silently, then nodded again: "If the empress comes back, will the princess be afraid?"

"Of course not."

"That's good." Aunt Cui raised her hand to wipe away her tears, "The slaves will go first."

Ying Ning urged behind her: "You must go to Yufu Palace, even if my aunt refuses to agree!"

Aunt Cui turned her head and smiled, "Princess, don't worry."

Seeing her somewhat staggering back walking out of sight, Ying Ning turned her gaze away and looked at the big box on the ground.

She hesitated for a while, picked up the key, and opened the box.
